KanColle does not allow me to work from nine to five

"Is it my fault that I was born with baby fat?"

"Your voice is also very babyish." Zara curled the corners of her lips, crossed her arms and looked at Liu Cheng.

"These are all innate. I'm a soldier. Even if it's like what you said, I'm still a macho man with a baby voice." Liu Cheng was not convinced. Some things might be determined in his genes. He could find ways to train his abdominal muscles, but he couldn't get rid of his slightly chubby cheeks. But no matter what, he was still a 23-year-old man, a tall soldier who defended his country. He could carry a load for a 50-kilometer cross-country march, and he could eat 12 pizzas in one breath in the army's pizza-eating competition. Of course, he was a macho man. "You didn't tell me your age, I think you're guilty."

Zara smiled and said, "Age is the secret of all women. If you don't even understand this kind of thing, how can you pursue girls?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm very popular with women."

"Are you referring to the woman the neighbor brought here earlier? I think she weighs at least 180 kilograms."

"So what? He is kind-hearted, healthy, and eats well. He sleeps well. His appearance may not be that good, but he has a kind heart."

Liu Cheng said things that he didn't even believe. He saw Zara's playful smile and decided not to continue talking about this topic. He wiped his hands with the towel by the sink, pushed Zara's shoulders and motioned her to sit on a small double sofa in the suite, then poured her a glass of water.

"I forgot to boil water, so I can't make coffee for you. Is warm water okay?" Liu Cheng sat next to Zara, of course, slightly to the side to keep a little distance between them.

"Sure." Zara smiled and said, "By the way, I boiled this pot of water for you. The original pot had already gone cold."

"That's great, thank you for breaking into the house."

"I can't help it. My little brother can't even take care of himself."

"I did that on purpose. Strong men only drink cold water."

Liu Cheng habitually bickered with Zara. After a month of getting along, he was a little confused about what their relationship was now. Investigator and investigated? Or friends? Or both? He turned his head to look at the beautiful Sardinian girl. From this angle, he could see Zara's incomparable figure. The fullness on her slender waist bulged, then quickly narrowed, outlining the vague clavicle and swan-like slender neck. Her lips were beautiful and her nose was straight. She was one of the only beauties Liu Cheng had ever seen in his life.

Zara seemed to be aware of Liu Cheng's gaze, turned her face to the side and smiled slightly, saying: "There is no need to be sneaky if you want to see it. As an older sister, I still have some tolerance."

Liu Cheng did not respond to this, but retracted his gaze and said calmly: "I was called in by the Navy's Internal Affairs Department for a talk today."

"I know." Zara held her cheek lightly. "I've been investigating you for a month, so there must be some results, right?"

Liu Cheng put his hands on his thighs, turned sideways and bowed to Zara, and said sincerely: “I’m sorry!”

"Apologize for what?"

"Even though you told me your identity directly, I still didn't believe you were an agent of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Sister Zara, I'm sorry."

"So you are a younger brother, and your sister

I don’t believe it.”

Zara smiled. She had never thought that someone could fully understand the shipgirl. The amount of information released by the Mind Cube to the outside world was too huge, so the human brain would only receive part of the information due to self-protection mechanism. The charm of the shipgirl was not affected by various restrictions. Therefore, Zara only needed to ask directly when performing similar tasks before. The other party would not hide anything from her. But she did not expect to meet Liu Cheng this time. It was also the first time for Zara to have so much communication with a person of the opposite sex. Surprisingly, it felt good.

"Yes, I am just a younger brother." Liu Cheng admitted this time. He asked, "So I should have passed the investigation, right?"

"That's hard to say." Zara smiled. She enjoyed the communication with Liu Cheng, which was equal and happy.

"It's hard to say. After all, we have been together for a month. I am just an ordinary person who is greedy for money and lustful. How could I be raped?"

Zara raised her voice: "Ordinary people?"

Liu Cheng was very sure: "Ordinary people."

"Greedy and lustful?"

"Greedy and lustful."

"I don't think so." Zara leaned against the back of the sofa and blinked. "As far as I know, the supply ship you are on, the Volcano, has used its military identity to engage in illegal smuggling activities many times, but as one of the senior officers on the ship, you have never participated in it. Is this your greed for money?"

Liu Cheng touched his face a little embarrassedly: "You know this too?"

"I'm an agent, I'll know the answer just by asking." Zara curled her lips. In fact, she just asked any crew members of the Volcano and found out everything.

"I took my share of the profits."

"Rather than calling it a profit sharing, it's more like hush money. If you don't take it, you can't stay on the boat."

"The share of the money is not small." Liu Cheng said frankly, "And you misunderstood. What I meant by greed is that I came to Sardinia to participate in the two-year military exchange activities, not for other noble reasons, but just because there are extra subsidies."

Zara blinked, looked at Liu Cheng's sincere face, and decided not to care about it: "What about lust? The Moulin Rouge, a place of custom frequented by navy soldiers, you have never been there once, right?"

"You don't have to go to a brothel to be lustful."

Liu Cheng shook his head. In fact, he had never been there. Apart from some psychological reasons such as cleanliness, the strong and pungent perfume, the heavily made-up faces, and the atmosphere with nothing but hormones really made him uninterested.

He held up three fingers and said, "Actually my dream is to find a small city to do business after I retire, and then marry three wives, so that I won't be short of one when playing mahjong."

"Three? That's something a delusional little brother would say..."

Zara shook her head and smiled, saying, "Even after the war, the ratio of men to women is unbalanced. If you marry three, aren't you afraid of the Shura field?"

Liu Cheng said: "Don't be afraid."

"So confident?"

"It has nothing to do with self-confidence." Liu Cheng snapped his fingers, "I don't even have a wife, why should I think so much now? Maybe I will change my mind by then."

Zara paused, and actually felt that it made sense, she said unhappily: "Then what do you mean by greed and lust?"

Liu Cheng spread his hands and said, "So, ordinary people are like this. They have their own desires, but they will not easily cross their bottom line. If someone does anything for money or sex, then they may really be raped. People like me are definitely innocent."

Zara looked at Liu Cheng's sincere eyes, blinked, and couldn't help but laughed out loud: "You laid so much groundwork, being greedy and lustful, just to prove this kind of thing."

"Not to set the stage, at least I really want to marry three wives now."

"Oh, is it so?"

Zara smiled but felt a little unhappy in her heart. The topic just now was out of her control and was dominated by Liu Cheng. He even said that he wanted to marry three wives. It seemed that he had not fully accepted his brother's identity.

So Zara moved her body slightly, and the arms of the two people on the sofa were suddenly stuck together.

"So what do you think of me, sister?"

"He is conscientious and responsible in his work, and is a hero in the Sardinian Navy." Liu Cheng felt the warm touch on his arm, his face remained expressionless, but his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.

“That’s not what I’m asking.”

"In terms of character, he is also fair and selfless. He will never let a bad guy go, and he will never wrongly accuse a good person..."

"We've known each other for a month, haven't you ever thought of anything else?"

Zara interrupted Liu Cheng and hugged his arm. She leaned forward with her mature and beautiful face and looked at Liu Cheng with a smile on her face: "Are you having wild thoughts when an older woman does this to you?"

"In fact, my mental activities are more abnormal than you can imagine." The full touch was like a warm water ball, tightly embedded in his arm. Liu Cheng felt that his body was about to stiffen, but he would rather lose the battle than the opponent. Facing such a beautiful woman, Liu Cheng was determined to make his mouth harder than his body. Being in a foreign country, he must not lose face for the Chinese people.

"It doesn't matter how ridiculous it is. As a sister, I have to be tolerant. I don't mind." The corners of Zara's lips curled up higher and higher.

"Then I suggest you let me go, or I won't be thinking about what's next."

"Oh, so what are you going to do?"

"It's something between a man and a woman."

"whats the matter?"

"Isn't it obvious what's going on?" Liu Cheng looked at Zara's pretty face, and he couldn't lose. "How about tonight?"

"What tonight?" Zara blinked.

It was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. In fact, for the first time, she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

"You know, my bed is pretty big and soft..."

"Then do you have an umbrella?"

Zara's sudden question stunned Liu Cheng. It took him a while to understand what Zara meant, and he said awkwardly, "No."

"So you're still a little brother, you're not prepared for anything."

Zara smiled and stood up, about to walk out the door, "Don't talk about this kind of thing until you are really ready."

Liu Cheng also stood up and called out, "Sister Zara."

Zara turned back: "What else?"

Liu Cheng asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time: "Are you a ship girl?"

"What do you think?" Zara smiled but did not give a direct answer.

"Then dinner."

“I’ll eat it next time I come.”

Seeing Zara's figure completely disappear outside the door, Liu Chengcai slowly retracted his gaze and murmured: "As a normal adult male, it seems that I should prepare a few small umbrellas in case of need..."

Outside the door, where Liu Cheng couldn't see, Zara was leaning against the wall, covering her red cheeks with her slender white hands.

What? There are so many other answers that could have dealt with it, but I just blurted out something about the small umbrella I had heard of before in a panic... What if he misunderstands me as a casual woman? Will he be disappointed by my fooling around? Ahhhh, what is this, Zara? Are you still the calm and reliable Zara?

Zara didn't quite understand. It was the first time she knew that the Mind Cube could jump so fast.

Chapter 4: Grapes? Tirpitz

If it was Liu Cheng who had just traveled through time, he would definitely not ask such a question. With such a name and such an outstanding appearance, she must be a ship girl without a doubt.

That's right, Liu Cheng is not from this world. As a human male who is neither young nor old, has a unique appreciation for beauty, and is loyal and devoted, Liu Cheng has naturally come into contact with the Kancolle game, so when he first crossed over to this world, he was quite happy.

No system?

Very good, so you don’t have to be a puppet of the system.

Ship girl?

I won’t let you be lonely anymore, I will definitely marry you!

Sirens?

If you dare to attack, you will be defeated! Behind this Azure Lane is the human race's iron wall!

So it was natural for Liu Cheng to join the navy.

It was only after he had lived in this world for a while that he discovered that the situation seemed different from what he had imagined.

The ship girls do not have human commanders, and they don't even have much contact with humans. Some people who have seen the ship girls have given them all kinds of strange descriptions. Some say they are born with defects, some say they are indescribable, and many more can't remember the scenes of their meeting at all... Even within the navy, there is very little information about the ship girls.

This made Liu Cheng very confused. Since they were called Ship Girls instead of Ship Cats, Ship Dogs, Ship Air, or Ship Cthulhu, it meant that these powerful lives born from the Mind Cube should be young human women. If there was no news in the society, it might be for confidentiality. It was very strange that the military was also vague about them.

However, Liu Cheng's doubts were slowly suppressed in his heart as he adapted to the life in this world, especially after he came to Sardinia - working from nine to five is really comfortable, slacking off at work is also a great pleasure in life, and when going out to sea to perform missions, he can eat barbecue and drink beer on the deck, and even get a promotion by touching the monthly fee group ⑥九４九③六壹③五鱼... This is what life is all about!

As for defending the country, only the ship girls can fight against the Sirens. Nuclear weapons are just a tickle to them. Ordinary humans can't really help even if they control the steel behemoths on the sea.

Under the influence of this environment, Liu Cheng's mentality became more and more leisurely.

Now that we have a second life, we should enjoy it. Here I come to the wonderful life in another world!

However, some recent events have given Liu Cheng a bad feeling. It seems that his leisurely life may be undergoing some changes, but he doesn't know whether such changes are good or bad.

After Zara left, Liu Cheng absentmindedly prepared his "homesickness meal". Since he didn't control the heat well, the skin of the tomatoes was a little burnt.

He placed the scrambled eggs with tomatoes on the cooked rice and brought it to the computer desk opposite the bed. He ate while turning on the computer.

There were a lot of unread messages on the chat software, most of which were from Huoshan's military colleagues, asking about his situation after being taken away by the Internal Affairs Department. Liu Cheng glanced through them and found his target -

She was a netizen with the nickname "Grape", and her avatar was a snow-covered strait. Just as Liu Cheng knew, this Grape had a face as cold and dreamy as her avatar, but after getting to know her, she was actually as cute as her nickname "Grape". Like Zara, she was one of the only two beautiful women Liu Cheng had ever seen in his life, and she seemed to have a lot of free time. She was online on time almost every day during the half year they had known each other.

Grape sent a message half an hour and fifteen minutes ago respectively:

"Call me when you're online."

"In the past month, you have often been unable to come online on time."

Liu Cheng replied "sorry". He thought to himself that it was not because he did not want to be online on time, but mainly because of Zara. Thinking of this, he could not help but recall the incomparably wonderful soft touch just now. Liu Cheng felt that he could not blame himself. If it were any man who experienced Zara's charm, he would not be able to have wild thoughts. Even Liu Xiahui, the ancestor of the Liu family, could not do it.

It depends on whose arms you're sitting on.

Tizi had been waiting for Liu Cheng. After seeing him come online to reply, he directly initiated a voice request.

"Is something wrong?"

The voice is deep and magnetic, as if it is the never-melting ice and snow in the Norwegian mountains, but the concern contained in the words still gives people a warm and intellectual feeling. It is great to hear such a comforting voice after get off work.

"I'm having dinner." Liu Cheng replied while chewing rice. There was no need for them to avoid smacking their lips. "Have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten." Tizi paused and asked, "You've been online quite lately. Did something happen to you?"

"There's something going on at work."

"The Sardinian Navy has been working so hard."

"I'm definitely not as strong as you guys in this regard. I can always see you online after get off work every day."

There were some teasing remarks, but they did not make Tizi angry. The two of them had been chatting almost every night for the past six months, and even all day long on weekends. They had already become quite close.

"Because I'm very free and don't go out very often."

"I am grateful to my iron-blooded leadership. It is so nice that I can hear Tizi's voice every day when I get home from get off work."
