As a commander, I will never meet a heavy female ship girl

"I'm sorry, Miss San Juan, I was a little... well, rude."

The Republic bowed slightly apologetically.

"Ah, no need for that." San Juan waved his hands repeatedly. "I think Miss Burgundy didn't mean it. Miss Burgundy doesn't need to do this."

"Thank you for your understanding," Republic said with a gentle smile.

"Hmm... so warm..." San Juan was stunned.

"San Juan! Stop being such a jerk!" the hunter yelled. "Come help! I'm tired of clearing mines under fire!"

"Here I come!" San Juan ran over quickly.

Republic shook her head helplessly as she hurried to the next area.

The flag that emits warm light has always been in the most dangerous place.

Of course, this flag is accompanied by the guidance of the stars.

"Huh..." Republic breathed softly, "Thank you for your hard work, sir."

"Be careful, artillery fire from the left." Lorraine replied.

The Republic raised his left hand and plunged the sword into the sea, blocking the cannonball.

"boom!"

The 431mm main gun roared back.

Eight shells, after traveling 26 km, slammed into the bow of a cruiser.

A beautiful fireball rose.

"Be careful. We'll talk about the hard work after the battle." Lorraine said with some blame.

"Okay, I got it. I'll pay attention." Republic hung the sword back on his waist.

Chapter 161 Reinforcements

As Leipzig dismantled the last mine, flames rose in the distance.

She subconsciously fell to the side, and a huge column of water was stirred up, soaking her thoroughly.

Look up, the second shell is about to fall.

Leipzig could clearly see that this was a shell with a caliber of more than 15 inches.

She closed her eyes in despair.

Damn... my luck...

"boom!"

First there was a strong wind blowing wildly, which hurt her cheek slightly, and then she was covered by shadows.

A huge flag gun, wrapped in a storm, crashed into the cannonballs above her head.

The flagpole was blown away by the explosion, spinning in the air and returning to its owner's hand.

Burgundy used the lance to slightly turn around to relieve the force, and squinted his eyes at the fleet in the distance.

"It's friendly forces, stop the shelling!" Haitian's voice appeared in the public channel in time.

The war oracle forced the already calibrated main gun to move away.

Anyway, there are friendly marks on iff.

"This is Shangguan Nan, the commander of the XD118 port area. I hope we are not too late."

"It's not too late, it's already timely." Hai Tian said.

"Oh, it's Commander Haitian again? Are you going to my port area for supplies later?" Shangguan Nan said with a smile.

"Of course." Haitian breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little tired.

"Welcome, but let's get rid of these sirens first."

"Well, everyone, free fire."

After Haitian gave the last instruction, he sat in the chair and rubbed his temples tiredly.

The dispute in the command room finally came to a temporary halt.

Burgundy and Republic began to return to the command ship, and Richthofen still needed to recover the crew.

"Excuse me, can I leave now?"

As the last red dot disappeared, Lorraine took off his headphones and asked tentatively.

He felt a little dizzy now, and he didn't know if it was because he had overused his brain or was too nervous before.

"Okay, remember to hold a tactical meeting tomorrow afternoon." Haitian nodded. She was still impressed by this outstanding junior.

Senior Zhenhai also asked me to take care of it?

Lorraine said goodbye at the speed of light.

But before he could rest, he still needed to go to the deck.

Because of his active get off work attitude, he became the first commander to arrive on deck to pick up his own ship girl.

He breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the ship girls boarding the ship one by one under the guiding light.

It's okay, Burgundy and the others finally have some sense of propriety this time...

No injuries.

"Commander!" Burgundy went up to him as soon as he saw him.

"Well..." She hugged Lorraine suddenly, "No one is hurt this time."

I really don't want to be apart for even a moment...

After Lorraine's hands were at a loss for a moment, he finally patted Burgundy's back and said, "Okay, okay, you're not hurt. You're very good."

Burgundy hugged him tighter.

"Sir." The Republic boarded the ship a little slower than her sister. "I did a pretty good job, didn't I?"

"Okay, okay~" Lorraine pushed Burgundy away helplessly, then tucked Republic's messy sideburns behind her ears.

"Woo..." Gongguo's face turned slightly red, but it was hard to see in the dim light.

She took off her little hat with some embarrassment, and then smoothed her hair again.

"Great." Lorraine gave the Republic a thumbs up.

"Hehe, no way." Republic smiled shyly.

*Joyful Dragon Roar

pat!

Richthofen jumped onto the deck from over Albatross's head and saluted Lorraine.

"Report to the commander, mission accomplished."

"Well done." Lorraine turned around. "As expected of an Iron-Blooded Ace, you've shot down over 20 planes this time."

"That's 24, Commander." The Red Baron said with some regret, "I'm a little rusty. Otherwise, I could have shot down 26."

"That's impressive." Lorraine smiled. "The ship's mess hall is still open. Do you want to go for a midnight snack together?"

"Let's go~" Burgundy took Lorraine's hand.

"Yeah, I'm hungry too." Richtofen quickly followed.

Republic looked at his companions, his gaze finally landing on his own leader.

She was slightly behind Richtofen, and only lifted the right hem of her skirt and hurried to catch up when Lorraine turned around.

"How about it, Haitian, these kids are pretty good, right?" In the command room, Haitian received an unexpected call.

"Indeed, he is very calm, not like a new graduate at all. Are the kids nowadays so scary?" Haitian walked outside.

"So, every generation has its own talents," Zhenhai sighed. "It feels like my early retirement is no longer a dream."

"How can that be, Senior Zhenhai? You are the stabilizing force. Donghuang will not be able to survive without you."

"That's not an exaggeration." Zhenhai said with a smile, "Help me take care of those kids. You know, get more exercise."

"Yeah, I know." Haitian has always liked outstanding juniors.

"Especially that kid Lorraine." Zhenhai looked at the information in his hand and was silent for a moment.

Name: Lorraine

Mental Status Assessment: Danger

Psychological endurance: 0~5 (doubtful)

Diagnostic Report: Suspected of mild split personality or disintegration, accompanied by extremely severe self-destructive tendencies. Unsure if this is a sequelae of Project Ikaros...

Recommendation: Prohibit him from engaging in any maritime-related occupations and prohibit him from being subjected to any stimulation. Once he is subjected to any serious stimulation, the consequences will be completely immeasurable.

Diagnostic unit recommendation: Clear."

"What's wrong?" Haitian noticed Zhenhai's silence.

"No, it's nothing. That kid is the best of the best." Zhenhai maintained his previous tone.

"Also, the government may be making a major move. Yixian and I are trying our best to delay it. I now order you, as an admiral, to retain the command of Azur Lane at all costs if any unexpected event occurs." Zhenhai's tone became serious. "I will also convey this order to the other comrades."

"Is something going to happen?" Haitian realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Some spineless guys can't help it." Even though he has been in the Donghuang officialdom for many years, Zhenhai still can't hide his anger and disgust.

"It's just the scum that is indispensable in every era." Realizing his own gaffe, Zhenhai gently changed the subject.

"Yes, Haitian got it." Even though he couldn't see Zhenhai, Haitian still stood at attention and saluted.

"I wish you good luck in martial arts and a safe journey," she said worriedly.

"You too, may your military fortune flourish and your journey be smooth." Zhenhai breathed a sigh of relief and calmed himself down.

"For Donghuang." The principal left his last words.

"For Donghuang." Haitian repeated and hung up the phone.

It is now Beijing time: 2:47 am, the eve of dawn in the East 8th District.

It is also the darkest time before dawn.

Chapter 162 Cutscene

The next morning, Lorraine got up early.

He always slept lightly at sea, probably because he knew he was working.

As usual, I first went to the highest point of the bridge and looked into the distance.

Children from inland areas always have an inexplicable obsession with the sea.

Although Lorraine also knew that he would get tired of it soon.

"Commander, have you had breakfast?" Burgundy also went up to the terrace. She knew that Lorraine would definitely come here.

Lorraine did not rush to reply, but just slowly listened to the leisurely footsteps coming closer and closer.

I don't know when it started, but he has become like this, really liking to listen to his girl's pace.

The burgundy metal foot armor hit the floor, making a crisp sound.

Even though Mr. Luo didn't want to admit it, this time it felt like a real knock on his heart, again and again.

Ah, the bell sound is getting closer, and the knight in black is standing beside the lord.

"Let me ask you again~" Burgundy hugged Lorraine's hand, speaking with some resentment and as if acting coquettishly.

"I've eaten, I've eaten." Lorraine couldn't help but touch Burgundy's head.

"Well, you're smart." Burgundy let go of Lorraine and leaned against the railing with him.

"Commanders, please arrive at the operations room at 11:15 for a brief meeting. All shipgirls, please proceed to cabin B32 for a regular meeting."

"Let's go." Lorraine turned around.

"What an unromantic tip." Burgundy curled his lips in dissatisfaction, but there was nothing he could do about it.
