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

"That's getting off topic." Bai Jiu closed his eyes slightly.

"As far as I know, in early November of this year, the commander of XD122 Port Area in Hong Kong was still Bai Yangui," she explained. "But I didn't expect that guy was just a figurehead."

"After that, I went home and basically cut off contact with the outside world."

"As for being responsible..."

"She is two years younger than me. We underwent the experiment together when I was five years old." Bai Jiu recalled slowly.

"I still remember the experiment was located in the capital."

"Later, later..."

"I remember clearly that it was a rainy night. I was taken away and she was left alone there."

It was raining heavily.

She will never forget that rainy night——

Lightning flashed across the sky like human bones, and she and her sister snuggled together in the room to keep warm.

"Click." The door seemed to be blown open by the storm.

She turned around suddenly and saw a face as pale as a demon's, leaning against the door frame.

Then he rushed in, and his slender arms were like iron clamps, separating the two young girls, and then he grabbed her arms and half-dragged her out of the room.

Later, and later...

"I will save you, I will definitely save you..." The heavy rain suppressed her crying, and she said this on the phone.

Outside, one could hear the mother's panting and giggling as she made love with her lover, while the father was probably somewhere having a good time, enjoying who knows how many one-night stands he had.

Yes, she was the product of a family marriage, and her parents had no feelings for her other than physical connection.

"We're here." Bai Jiu came to his senses when he saw the iron fence.

This is a cemetery near the Maritime Academy, but it does not belong to the Maritime Academy.

Although the cemetery belonging to the Maritime Academy is not far from here, it is where heroes who have made great contributions to protecting humanity are buried.

And here...

The inscriptions on the tombstones were in a messy style, and it looked like just an ordinary cemetery.

Or even worse.

"I don't have much money now." Bai Jiu stated the fact calmly, "I can't afford to buy a cemetery in the capital."

"She didn't want to be buried with those people either."

"And I've always wanted to visit the mainland." Bai Jiu led a group of people into the cemetery.

"I'm sorry, I did have my eye on Burgundy at first." She lowered her head slightly.

Lorraine glanced at Burgundy, who shook his head slightly.

"It's not unpleasant at all, it's all over." Lorraine replied.

"Thank you for your understanding."

If she knew I was like this, she would probably be disappointed.

Bai Jiu thought silently.

Finally, a group of people stood in a corner of the cemetery.

The rain was pouring down like pillars, and Bai Jiu just let the cold rain hit his face.

Even though she was shivering with cold.

Lorraine stood beside her, in front of an ordinary tombstone.

It is very clean, even the inscription is simple.

"Endure loneliness, know pain, face weakness, and foster self-improvement.

——Bai Ying"

Everyone was silent.

"I broke the appointment." Her voice was slightly trembling and hoarse.

She placed the cherry blossoms in her arms in front of the monument.

"I'm sorry... Mingming..."

We clearly agreed that as an older sister, I would protect my younger sister for life.

She hadn't cried since a long time ago.

But now, something warm flowed out of his eyes, mixing with the cold rain.

Bai Jiu finally couldn't help it and sobbed softly.

Then quickly, the sobbing turned into uncontrollable crying.

"She was a brave person and a kind person." Lorraine said softly, placing the cornflowers in front of the grave.

Royal Oak patted Bai Jiu's back gently.

It took a long time before her sadness was washed away by the heavy rain and she was able to control herself a little.

The two bouquets of flowers were slightly sheltered by the eaves that extended from the tombstone.

They sway slightly in the wind.

"Boom."

The ancient bell of the Maritime Academy rang out the six o'clock time.

“When I met her with Republic, she was still in the orphanage…” Lorraine recalled.

"An orphanage? It really sounds like something she would do." Bai Jiu forced a smile, turned his head, and reached out to brush across the inscription.

"Endure loneliness, understand pain, face weakness, and cultivate self-reliance." She murmured softly.

"This is a family motto." She explained to herself, "But, but it doesn't require you to practice it with your own death..."

Bai Jiu sobbed, and just as an older sister, she gently scolded her restless sister.

But scolding gradually turned into mild complaints.

Finally, it became a terrible self-denial——

"Perhaps I'm not as useful here as a pastor." She smiled bitterly, her tone full of sadness.

"Don't say that." Lorraine stood beside her.

"She wouldn't be happy to see you like this."

"Yeah, every time I'm like this she always pretends to be mature and says something to me."

"She said she hoped I could live with her share."

Bai Jiu looked at Lorraine, trying to confirm something.

"Did she have any regrets when she died?"

"Of course, there is." Lorraine said.

"But she died like a warrior... No, she died as a warrior."

"So, no one's death is in vain, right?"

"Yeah, of course." Lorraine nodded.

"Because the living will gain something more precious from their death."

"It's a precious thing." Bai Jiu repeated.

The atmosphere fell into silence again.

"Miss Burgundy." She turned around, her voice barely breaking through the heavy rain.

"Go ahead," Burgundy responded.

"Can you help me?"

"I'm sorry, but now is the only time."

"So, there's no need to be too formal."

"Of course." Burgundy nodded slightly and she slowly walked forward.

Standing in that sacred light, speak softly.

"Give them eternal rest,

Lord, may light shine upon her forever.

……

Grant them eternal rest, Lord,

And may the light shine upon her forever."

The rainstorm subsided as it pleased.

The sunlight pierced through the clouds and fell on the tombstone.

Bai Jiu looked up in a daze, and there were water stains and tear marks on his face.

Lorraine placed white cornflowers in front of the monument.

"Good morning, Baiying. It's morning now."

Chapter 199 Then continue with daily life

After the rainstorm, the morning light came.

"It's morning..." Bai Jiu muttered to himself.

The dry old branches above were dripping water, which fell on the tombstone below.

She wanted to make herself laugh, and she should have laughed.

But when she reached her lips and looked at the two bouquets of flowers still intact under the eaves of the tombstone, she burst into tears.

"You...you guys still have things to do..." Bai Jiu turned around, "Go ahead, leave me alone..."

"Yeah." Lorraine patted Bai Jiu's shoulder.

The Republic hugged the Royal Oak, and Richthofen nodded slightly to Independence.

This war has torn too many families apart and caused too many deaths.

And in the future, it is entirely foreseeable that more and more people will die.

When the early morning came, it was accompanied by heavy rain.

When you walk in the early morning, your steps are light.

Do not take away a cloud.

This cemetery is very small.

Can't bear a funeral with bugles and drums.

The poet's soft singing is the limit of what can be done there.

"Beiden Ahnen nimmst du heute deinen Platz (In the Lord's side you have found your eternal home)..."

"Haha, war." Lorraine laughed sarcastically.

Richtofen was the last one to leave the cemetery, and she closed the gate behind her.

"The war never changes." She looked at Venice singing and could only shake her head.

"I know, it's just..." Lorraine sighed.

No one answered him, for the girls had different opinions on these matters.

As the poet uttered the last line, ending with a sigh, the atmosphere once again fell into an unspeakable silence.

Death is always heavy.

"What are the commander's plans after the war?" Venice looked at Lorraine.
