KanColle does not allow me to work from nine to five

Great minds think alike. Of course, close contact is more satisfying when it comes to taking care of a child.

So Musashi reached out and stroked Liu Cheng's forehead, and said softly: "Of course I have no interest in imitating Frederick the Great's behavior, but since it is time to relax, there is no need to be so rational, and it doesn't hurt to be a little more emotional."

"Can I touch your breasts?"

Musashi smiled: "You don't have to throw away reason so quickly."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Liu Cheng smiled and rubbed the plump snowball behind him with some satisfaction. He was now truly in a state of emptiness. It was a bit pretentious to say that he was tired, but it was quite refreshing to just relax and not think about anything from time to time, regardless of Azur Lane or Crimson Axis.

What's more, Musashi has arranged all kinds of conspiracies and tricks in the past few days, and she will become his wife in the future. It is her duty to do anything to make up for it now. Liu Cheng is quite justified.

Chapter 69 Come to my arms

"What to eat?"

"Hmm... crab roe rice balls, without the sauce on top."

The sun is shining brightly, but in the shade there is a mountain breeze that makes you feel less hot.

Liu Cheng still felt a little hot, and lay in Musashi's arms with his collar open. Musashi skimmed the Thousand Island sauce off the crab roe rice ball with his fingers and gently handed it to Liu Cheng's mouth. Liu Cheng swallowed it in one gulp and finished it in a few bites.

"how is the taste?"

"It's just so-so, nothing special about it, and a little sour. Did you add too much vinegar?"

"Shinan and I did this together."

"No wonder you added more vinegar, you knew that the hot weather would make my appetite poor, you are worthy of being my Shinano Master."

Musashi smiled slightly, thinking that he was so smooth-talking subconsciously, no wonder so many ship girls were attracted to him, not just Shinano. Takao, Toriumi, Unzen and others seemed to be interested in him as well. Add to that Amagi, Taiho and others, the Sakura Empire had already fallen for him a long time ago.

Maybe things really can take a turn for the better. We can observe the recent situation carefully. If the general trend is like this, sometimes there is no need to insist fearlessly.

Thinking of this, Musashi wanted to smear the Thousand Island sauce on his hand on the handkerchief, but was stopped by Liu Cheng.

"I want to eat."

As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue and licked all the Thousand Island sauce on Musashi's green index finger into her mouth. The wet touch was sticky and hot, as if it had licked Musashi's heart, making her mind cube tremble and her golden pupils filled with water.

"You were the one who said you didn't want to eat, and you were the one who ate." Musashi said helplessly but lovingly, "You are such a willful child."

Liu Cheng explained casually: "The sauce will mix up the taste of the rice balls, which is weird and not refreshing enough. I still like the taste of the sauce alone."

"Then shall I make you some more sauce?"

Musashi stretched out his slender, white index finger, which was as slender as a scallion. The warmth from Liu Cheng's tongue tip that remained on it was quickly dried by the wind.

It gave off a strange smell, but it made Musashi feel a little indescribable fascination with it.

"No, it's too greasy if you eat too much."

Liu Chengzhen was not teasing on purpose or anything. He no longer thought about those intrigues. He just focused on massaging his brain, thinking whatever he thought of and enjoying it.

"What else do you want to eat?"

"Tempura, please."

“I guess it’s not brittle anymore.”

"It's okay, I still need some water... As for the wine, it's not too strong, so I can drink a little. I'm mainly thirsty."

After Liu Cheng was full, Musashi ate all the rest.

"You're not picky about food."

"I did this with Shinano, so of course I'm not picky."

Liu Cheng sat up, suddenly thought of a joke and laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I thought of a joke. It said that when a family eats fish, the mother always gives the belly of the fish to the child and eats the head and tail herself. When the child asks her, she says that she likes to eat the head."

Musashi said: "This is motherly love, a white lie."

Liu Cheng shook his finger and said, "The child told the teacher about this incident, and the teacher said the same thing. The child was very moved, and one day he took the initiative to eat the fish head first, leaving the belly for his mother. He found that the fish head was really delicious, and the fish cheeks, eyes and brain marrow each had their own flavor. His mother was very surprised. I was always telling the truth, but you believed the teacher and not your mother?"

After saying that, Liu Cheng laughed to himself, but soon the smile froze on his face and he looked a little lonely again.

Musashi's heart trembled, remembering that Liu Cheng once said that he was an orphan, and he stretched out his hands and said gently: "If you want to seek comfort, just come to my arms."

"It's okay. It's inevitable that I'll be a little hypocritical when I'm not so rational."

This time, Liu Cheng waved his hand. He used to feel a little self-pitying, but he rarely had such thoughts since he was with the ship girl. Firstly, they all depended on each other and were a real family. Secondly, everyone was an orphan anyway, standing in a row, and no one was an exception.

So there is nothing to be pretentious about.

After lunch, it was the hottest time of the day, so the two of them packed up and entered the shrine.

The shrine building on the top of the mountain is actually just the gate. The real body of the shrine is to walk down the steps to the valley slightly below. There is no sunlight there except at noon, and it is very cool and refreshing.

Walking down the steps, there are many small statues on the roadside with offerings placed in front of them. Upon closer inspection, they are actually made of plastic.

"It seems that you are not very pious."

"It's just culture. We don't really believe in so-called gods." Musashi said, "It's very troublesome to come here. Not to mention the waste of food, it's even more troublesome if it goes bad and is not dealt with. This is very convenient."

Liu Cheng nodded. It was a really simple point of view and he agreed with it.

“Is this Jizo?”

"It's Zimu Tongzi."

"Then this is wine swallowed."

"It's a Zashiki-warashi."

"I'm sure I won't make a mistake with this one. The one with nine tails is Tamamonomae."

"Yes."

Liu Cheng knew most of these gods or monsters in the mythology of Sakura Empire through anime. He didn't have a deep impression of some of them. He only had an impression of people like Tamamonomae, after all, she was a beautiful girl.

Liu Cheng said: "I heard that many people in Chongying worship you as gods, but in fact you can worship yourself."

Musashi replied, "Yes, our port area is also called Takamagahara by them."

"Think about it, it is true. Saving the world, possessing powerful strength, and being unknowable and uncommunicable, it is easy to think of you as a god. Musashi, you are a fox god like Tamamonomae." Liu Cheng paused, shook his head and said, "No, you are the leader, it should be Amaterasu, but that's not right, Amaterasu is a man."

Musashi blinked and said, "Actually, Amaterasu is a woman."

"Really? Hahaha..."

Liu Cheng used laughter to cover up his embarrassment. He actually only had a vague understanding of the story. It was also the anime's fault. When talking about Amaterasu, he thought of Ou Doudou's stupid brother, so naturally he thought it was a man.

The shrine was empty at this time. According to Musashi, if there was a festival like Obon, the shrine maidens sisters Fuso and Yamashiro, Chitose and Chiyoda would perform the Kagura dance here, and Nagato, as the son of God, would also participate.

Just like visiting a temple or a Taoist temple, even if you don’t believe in God, you still have to pretend to make a wish. If it is to the God of Wealth, then you will be even more pious.

Liu Cheng followed Musashi in washing their hands in front of the hall, clapping their hands a few times, putting their hands together in prayer, then stretched out their hands to pull the hemp rope hanging in front of them, shaking it a few times, and the wind chimes on it made a clear tinkling sound.

"What did you wish for, Musashi?"

Musashi said: "I pray to the gods to bless everyone in the Sakura Empire to be safe and happy."

"Got it." Liu Cheng snapped his fingers, "I will definitely work hard to make everyone in the Sakura Empire safe and happy."

Musashi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Blasphemy, be careful of the backlash."

"Who dares to oppose me?"

Liu Cheng's voice echoed in the hall, a little muffled and strange, so Liu Cheng's next sentence was much quieter: "Look, no one dares to rebel against me."

"Hehehe——"

Musashi laughed softly, and Liu Cheng also laughed.

Come.

Chapter 70 Emptying the mind means only impulse

In fact, Liu Cheng has always been a materialistic fighter. He has never had any savior, nor does he rely on gods or emperors... KanColle and Sirens seem difficult to understand, but their existence is too far beyond the existing level of human cognition, so they appear very dreamy. In essence, they may be a manifestation of high-dimensional existence after being reduced to three dimensions.

After a major catastrophe, it is understandable that people place their hopes for the future on gods and faith out of fear of the unknown. In addition, the ship girls are so powerful and mysterious that they can perfectly fit into the religious descriptions of angels, caliphs, arhats, the Eight Immortals, etc., so it is not surprising that a religious Renaissance has emerged.

Liu Cheng was actually respectful of ghosts and gods but kept his distance from them.

In other words, the night before, when he pushed Shinano against the wooden sliding door, lifted her slender, white and smooth legs, bent her slender and plump body like a cooked shrimp, and guided her to utter blushing and heart-pounding moans, he was already blaspheming the imaginary gods of the Sakura people.

After worshipping the main god, Musashi took Liu Cheng to visit the shrine, the Kagura Hall and the Dance Hall. Perhaps because it had to accommodate so many ship girls from the Sakura Empire, the entire shrine was very large, almost occupying the entire canyon. The mountains were shady and there was no direct sunlight, which was quite refreshing.

"I always feel that this place is quite suitable for living in this season."

"Indeed, the temperature is very suitable, and we are not afraid of the sun." Musashi said, "But there is no Internet here."

"Then goodbye, whoever wants to stay in this barren land can stay there."

Musashi narrowed his eyes and smiled gently: "There are still many people who don't like the Internet that much."

“Very few.”

Girls like to chat and gossip, and ship girls are no exception. Mobile phones are also used to receive notifications and work arrangements. Most ship girls, like humans, never put down their phones. Only a few old-fashioned people like War-Yan reject mobile phones. It was only after he met Liu Cheng that Bal gradually became familiar with the operation of the mobile phone.

Musashi asked, "Are we going down the mountain now?"

"No, I don't want to play with my phone either... Let's find a place to take a nap."

"Let me think... I got it. There is a place to rest in the side hall."

Musashi held Liu Cheng's wrist and led the way. At first, her mood was complicated, but now she had only one thought, which was that she didn't want the day to end so early.

Since the shrine maidens often come to clean, there is also a place to rest. In the small room in the side hall, there is a low table and tatami. Musashi took out the bedding from the cupboard and helped Liu Cheng spread it out. The light could not shine into the valley, and even if the curtains were not drawn, the room was very dim.

"Sleep together." Liu Cheng made the request very naturally. Of course, he didn't need to be polite when receiving the compensation from his future wife.

"it is good."

Musashi nodded gently and was about to untie the belt of his kimono, but Liu Cheng stopped him with his hand.

"You'd better wear it, otherwise I really can't help but make a move."

"…What a willful child."

Musashi was a little amused and helpless. It is said that women's hearts are as unfathomable as the sea, and men's hearts are just as tangled. She lay on her side on the bedding with her left hand supporting the pillow and her clothes on. Liu Cheng lay down and put his arms around Musashi's slender waist, his face facing the two breasts that made the front of her kimono round and full. Liu Cheng did not act too presumptuous, and his face was still a little distance away.

" alt='Come to my arms'>

"It smells good."

"Ah."

“It smells soothing.”

"Yes, put aside all your worries." Musashi gently patted Liu Cheng's back, as if coaxing a child, "Sleep well in my arms."

"Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'll sleep when you sleep."

"Such familiar words..." When one is free, one's thoughts tend to wander. Liu Cheng murmured in Musashi's arms, "I remember when I was a child in an orphanage, there was an aunt from the Northeast who liked to say this. She said it during our nap. In fact, she didn't sleep when we slept. She washed clothes, pickled cabbage, and dried corn... She was really busy."

Liu Cheng paused for a moment and said with emotion: "You are destined to be a hard worker too."

Musashi smiled, "You said it as if you weren't."

"Yes, we are both destined to work hard, but now you are working hard and I am enjoying myself..."

Although he was very sleepy, Liu Cheng kept talking to himself for a while as if recalling the past. Then his voice gradually became silent and he fell into a deep sleep in Musashi's arms.

Musashi's hands patted Liu Cheng's back lighter and slower, until finally she gently rested her hand on his back. She lowered her head and looked at Liu Cheng's quiet sleeping face. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and then relaxed after a while.

[It seems difficult to remain rational in front of you, and it always makes people more emotional. ]

Musashi thought about the more than half a month that he and Liu Cheng had known each other. Most of the time, he could only remain rational on the surface. From the initial resistance and indifference to the complexity and tolerance now, it seemed that he had not experienced anything. However, Shinano fell in love with them overnight. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him doing this?

Although I didn't admit it,

Musashi knew that he had already been convinced in his heart. It was not only because of the influence of Amagi and the others, but also because Liu Cheng was showing more and more attractive. However, rationally speaking, Musashi could not turn around immediately. He had just split off and jumped left and right. If this matter got out, the Sakura Empire shipgirls would be criticized and embarrassed. So he needed an opportunity, or a real turning point in the situation.

Musashi couldn't help but touch Liu Cheng's cheek, gently and softly so as not to disturb his sleep. His baby fat cheek would sink a little when poked, making his peaceful expression seem a little funny.

I wanted to pinch it again, but I was afraid of disturbing Liu Cheng, so I didn't move.

Because of the influence of Shinano, Musashi also had the habit of taking naps, but now he was not sleepy at all. Looking at the young man sleeping soundly in his arms, no matter how gifted and unique he was, how he stirred up the world and how everyone cared about him, he was just a cute baby sleeping in his arms.

Thinking of this, Musashi had an indescribable sense of satisfaction. It would be great if Liu Cheng was his own child. No matter how powerful he was outside, he would always be a good and spoiled baby in front of him. Just thinking about it made him feel so happy. Frederick the Great must have felt the same way.
