KanColle does not allow me to work from nine to five

Liu Cheng shook hands with Bismarck. The iron-blooded flagship had an upright posture and an arrogant demeanor, with straight and gorgeous golden hair that fell to her waist. Like Tirpitz, she was tall and well-proportioned, and her iron-blooded slim military uniform wrapped up her surging justice. However, when their hands were clasped together, Liu Cheng clearly felt that under Bismarck's plump body, there was the same emptiness as Hood's.

Liu Cheng subconsciously looked at Tirpitz. In her beautiful lake blue eyes, there were thousands of words that needed no further expression.

Bismarck frowned slightly, pulled his hand out of Liu Cheng's palm, and wanted to scold him sternly, but he slowed down his tone when he reached his mouth: "I think you should also know your current situation. I hope you can stop being so frivolous."

Before Liu Cheng had a chance to speak, Tirpitz said, "Don't be prejudiced. Liu Cheng is a very reliable person. You will know it later."

"Well……"

Bismarck would only be so clumsy and compromising when facing his sister Tirpitz.

Liu Cheng looked at the two sisters. It seemed that Tirpitz did not tell Bismarck that he could cure the Mind Cube. Then what reason did she use to ask Bismarck to come to Sardinia?

Zara respected Bismarck, the Iron Blood flagship, but Pola did not care so much. She talked about her beloved, and considering the Iron Blood's previous plot against Sardinia, she was just about to open her mouth to mock him, but at this moment, as if they had sensed something, Bismarck, Tirpitz and Prince Eugen raised their heads almost at the same time and looked towards the heights.

There, the Prince of Wales, Hood, Glorious and Belfast stood tall and looked down at the dock. Their eyes met, and it was as if the ice on the top of the snow-capped mountains that would never melt suddenly froze the air. The temperature around them seemed to drop by several degrees. Even Pola was a little scared and gave up the idea of ​​speaking.

Of course, Liu Cheng also felt this atmosphere that gave him goosebumps. He glanced at Veneto and thought that idealists were indeed worthy of respect, but the price of naivety was terrifying.

But at this time Liu Cheng had not yet realized that the price of naivety was not borne by Veneto, but by him.

Chapter 101: Hood vs. Prince Eugen

"You have come all the way here and we have arranged a room for you.

, take a rest first, and then I will treat you to dinner."

"Okay, thank you for your hospitality."

Veneto led Bismarck and others into the guest courtyard. As soon as they entered, they saw that the royal ship girls had set up a sunshade, tables and chairs under the magnolia tree at some point and were enjoying afternoon tea.

“Good tea!”

Hood elegantly picked up the celadon teacup and gently took a sip of the light red tea with her pink lips. She said leisurely, "Tea is just like people. If you want it to taste good, you have to pick it at the right time. There must be no insects or other pollutants. Otherwise, what you pick is not tea, but something dirty."

Guanghui pursed her lips. She had a gentle personality and rarely showed her edge. She was not very good at responding, so Hood looked at the Prince of Wales.

The Prince of Wales sighed inwardly. Her position was the most entangled. Half a year ago, she was the first to fire back for Hood. Bismarck was also seriously injured by the fire led by her. In the hearts of the Iron-blooded Ship Girl, she was naturally an enemy. But the Prince of Wales just thought that the main culprit must be eliminated and did not want to continue this fearless dispute. Within the royal family, the doves led by her were balancing with the hawks led by the Duke of York. However, for the sake of his good friend Hood, the Prince of Wales had to temporarily put aside his position.

"That's right." The Prince of Wales said, "There are many factors that affect the taste of tea. It's just that many old teas don't recognize their own identity and still think they are pure and flawless new teas. They have obviously been eliminated because of their bad behavior, but they still shamelessly come to us. Old tea is old tea. Once it has done bad things, it will never become new tea in its lifetime."

Both of them spoke very loudly, and of course the group of people who had just walked in from outside the yard could hear them. After all, they were speaking on purpose for certain people to hear.

The smile on Veneto's face was a little awkward. They were all her guests. Even if Tiexue had evil intentions towards Sardinia before, she couldn't take sides.

Bismarck's expression did not change. She continued to follow Veneto towards the stairs. She even saw the smile on Prince Eugen's face and stretched out her hand to block her, saying, "Don't bother. It's meaningless."

"It's okay, leave it to me."

Prince Eugen didn't care. It was not her creed to not fight back when provoked. She didn't walk far. She just picked up a leaf from the ground and threw it towards Hood. The leaf had no weight and of course it couldn't be thrown far. It lost its speed and fell before it reached Hood.

Hood saw Prince Eugen's actions. She naturally had no good feelings towards this Iron Blood heavy cruiser who had also been with Bismarck half a year ago. She sneered elegantly: "Prince Eugen, is this all you have?"

Prince Eugen said seriously: "I am not Prince Eugen, you have a bad eye and you must have made a mistake."

Hood pursed his lips and said contemptuously: "It's a despicable personal attack."

"Hey, you actually saw me and wanted to attack you. Let me tell you, I am Bismarck, I should be able to hit you Hood in one shot, what went wrong..."

Prince Eugen twisted a tuft of her silver hair, then clapped his hands in sudden realization and said, "Oh, I understand. It turns out that hermaphrodites are not human beings."

Hood clenched the teacup in her hand, breathing a little quickly. In fact, as an elegant royal lady, she was good at piano, calligraphy, flower arranging and sonnets. She was not good at manipulating others. However, Prince Eugen was an expert in this field, and she was immediately at a disadvantage.

"I think so too. Hermaphrodites are not human beings." Belfast calmly refilled Hood's tea and said with a faint smile, "So, Miss Bismarck with silver hair, are you the golden yang or the silver yin?"

Prince Eugen smiled and said, "Neither. I'm just an idler watching the fun."

"No wonder, people who have things to do are never idle for a moment. Only idle people can speak out."

"You guys are drinking tea, it's really leisurely."

"It's not like you guys have the leisure to pay New Year's greetings to the chickens after the war."

"Each each other."

"I'm surprised."

The Iron-Blooded Flower battled against the perfect and elegant head maid. Neither could break the other's defense, and it seemed that the game would only end in a draw. Even Liu Cheng, who thought he was humorous, had to admit defeat. This tense atmosphere was really terrible. Fortunately, he had not started to adjust it yet, so he fully understood the difficulties first.

Veneto remained neutral in a Sardinian style, and finally spoke with full authority at this time: "I don't care what conflicts you had in the past. Now we are in the port area of ​​Sardinia. I hope you will exercise restraint. I don't mind being your middleman."

"Contradiction? There is no contradiction at all." Prince Eugen said meaningfully, "The real contradiction was resolved half a year ago."

Hood sneered, then her gaze passed through Prince Eugen and fell on Liu Cheng at the back of the team. Hood could understand his intimacy with the Sardinian ship girl, but Liu Cheng's closeness with the Iron-Blooded ship girl made Hood feel betrayed, and the throbbing bud in her heart trembled slightly with pain, but this man finally helped her let go of some of her inner demons, and the complex emotions that she had never experienced before lingered in Hood's heart.

"Mr. Liu Cheng."

Even though he was in a complicated mood, Hood stood up leisurely and nodded to Liu Cheng gracefully. "Last night was one of the most unforgettable moments in my life. To express my gratitude, can I invite you to our afternoon tea party?"

Instantly, everyone's eyes shifted from her and Prince Eugen to Liu Cheng. Bismarck narrowed his eyes dangerously.

After being surprised, he shook his silver hair in relief. Tirpitz's eyes were filled with strange admiration. Even Pola, who knew a little bit of the truth, secretly pinched Liu Cheng's waist.

[Even if Hood's words are indeed somewhat misleading, your thoughts are a bit too distorted! ]

Liu Cheng had no choice but to respond: "It's mainly because you are strong-minded, Miss Hu De. Thank you for your invitation, but I have something to do now. If there is a next time, I will definitely come to disturb you."

"Well, I'll invite you in advance next time."

Hood pursed his lips, put a cucumber sandwich on the plate, and took it to Liu Cheng in small steps, "I made this myself, please try it to show my gratitude."

"Well, it looks delicious."

Liu Cheng stretched out his hand, but at this time Prince Eugen intervened.

"Royal cuisine cannot be judged from appearances."

Prince Eugen quickly picked it up and took a bite, then put the sandwich back on the plate. She lightly touched her lips, which were stained with milky white salad dressing, with her index finger and said with a reluctant expression, "It's really not that good, but it's definitely not deadly."

Faced with such rude behavior, Hood's hands trembled and her pretty face was frosty, as if she was about to explode at any time.

Prince Eugen even had time to glance at Liu Cheng seductively from the side, as if to provoke him.

"Ms. Eugen, I don't agree with your point of view. The cooking still depends on the cooking skills of the cook." Liu Cheng picked up the sandwich with a bitten corner on the plate with a calm face, put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully, "It's obviously delicious. Thank you, Miss Hood."

Hood's heart was moved, the frost melted and he smiled happily: "As long as you like it."

Prince Eugen curled his lips, seemingly disdainful, but quietly turned his head away and licked his pink lips with some happiness.

In fact, it is impossible for two slices of bread with cucumber, tomato, egg and mayonnaise to be unpalatable. The key point is that Liu Cheng doesn't understand. Why does the pressure that should be on Veneto seem to fall on him?

Chapter 102 Ron Can't Beat Me

"There are eight suites on the second floor, all identical. You can choose any one you like."

Prince Eugen gently wiped the handle of the room and suddenly asked: "Liu Cheng, where do you live?"

Liu Cheng replied casually: "I live on the third floor."

"I knew you would live here too, so I'll live on the third floor too."

Pola said expressionlessly: "This is the Sardinian port area. Please follow our arrangements. If you don't want to live here, you can live on your own yacht."

"Forget it. The yacht is too bumpy and it's really uncomfortable to sleep at night." Prince Eugen stretched his body, revealing his perfect and slender figure. She winked at Pola and said, "It's okay to live on the second floor. It's just a matter of climbing stairs anyway, so it's not too much trouble."

What this means is that it is hard to say whether it is from the first floor to the second floor, or from the second floor to the third floor.

Bora was so angry that her teeth itched. She pulled Liu Cheng to the corner of the stairs and said, "Sister Zara and I will not pursue the matter of Hu De, but you have to be careful in the future and not mess around with other girls again."

Liu Cheng hugged Bora's waist, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said, "You know what kind of personality Prince Eugen has. He says one thing and another that's true. Why do you take it to heart?"

"I don't care." Pora said, "Forget about Tirpitz. You two won't meet and talk after such a long time. I can't control it, but I can't control Prince Eugen."

Liu Cheng blinked and thought, Pora was somewhat hostile to Tirpitz just now, why did he give in because of Prince Eugen now?

So he said a little more presumptuously: "If you are really worried, I can live with you."

Bola's cheeks turned slightly red. She bit her lips, then turned her head and whispered, "It's not impossible..."

Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that this bright ship girl would knock on his head like before and then say "Don't even think about it". How could she make concessions and make the enthusiastic Pola blush and say such a sentence shyly? How could the phrase "deep love" be able to summarize it?

"Paula, I really like you."

Liu Cheng held Bora tightly in his arms, held her plump body and let her sit on the stair railing, then lowered his head and licked and kissed her swan-like neck.

"Why are you doing this suddenly... There are people here who will find out..."

“Oh…”

"Stupid, I like you too--"

It is indeed as Pola said, it is not a question of there being someone, but a question of there being a lot of people, so the affectionate touch is just a slight touch.

After what happened before, Veneto seemed to be afraid that the Iron Bloods and the Royals would fight, so he stayed here and chatted casually with Bismarck until the time was almost right, and then he took everyone to the restaurant for dinner.

The restaurant was still the same magnificent restaurant, and the dinner was even more sumptuous than the night before.

But the atmosphere is completely different.

On a summer night when the temperature felt almost 30 degrees Celsius, everyone only felt gusts of cold wind that seemed to freeze the atmosphere. Even a naive little girl with a brainless mind like the southwest wind did not dare to stay for a moment on the field between Hood and Bismarck. Perhaps only a person with a personality like Littorio could shuttle between the Royal Army and the Iron Blood Army with a smile on his face. Even Marco Polo, who was equally confident, could not do such a thing. According to her words, it's not that I don't want to take action, but I will be tolerant first and wait until the atmosphere eases before making a fatal move. This is called an explorer's pursuit of benefits and avoidance of harm. I understand and don't understand.

Veneto had an awkward smile on his face, trying but failing to

To liven up the atmosphere a little, she pursed her lips, and her beautiful grey eyes even cast a look of helplessness at Liu Cheng. After all, he had some connection with Tiexue, and seemed to have established some friendship with the royal family.

Although Liu Cheng felt a little distressed to see the dignified Veneto reveal such a helpless look, his naivety would always be taught a lesson by reality. Even if he really wanted to mediate, he couldn't act when the two sides had just met and were extremely jealous of each other. It would be a better choice to wait until the atmosphere eased a little and then take advantage of the situation.

So Liu Cheng casually took two bites, and his eyes met with Tirpitz's. They both stood up at the same time, said hello, and left early.

Bora looked at Liu Cheng's back as he left, and whispered to Zara, "Sister Zara, let's go to his room and wait for him right away."

Zara just shook her head slightly.

"Sister Zara!"

Touching her sister's purple-black hair, Zara thought to herself, silly sister, things have come to this, Tirpitz has shown such magnanimity, if we are still stingy, we will really lose.

After walking out of the restaurant, he really felt like he had gone from winter to spring. Although there were still many things to do, Liu Cheng didn't want to think about anything at this moment. They hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, and there were many tangled issues. He just wanted to enjoy the moment of meeting Tirpitz again.

"How about a walk to the beach?"

"Okay." Tirpitz stopped and smiled playfully, "But you can't say that."

Liu Cheng immediately understood and said to her, "Ms. Tirpitz, I wonder if I would have the honor to invite you to take a walk on the beach?"

"It still doesn't work." Tirpitz had a faint smile on her lips. She took off her gloves, and her slender white fingers reflected a beautiful white glow in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Then I can only use force."

As Liu Cheng spoke, he held Tirpitz's slender hand very naturally, and both of their bodies trembled at the same time.

Tirpitz felt the long-missed warmth in her hands. The stimulation of the Mind Cube made her body tremble slightly. She could no longer hide the smile on her face. Tirpitz said, "I was forced to do it. I can only give in."

"Then please follow me, Miss Tirpitz."

"Well, I'll go wherever you go."

There is another sentence: I will follow you for the rest of my life. Tirpitz did not say it out loud, but he had already made up his mind about it and it would never change.

The two walked hand in hand along the path in the Sardinian port area.

"When I first learned that you were coming, I was quite surprised." Liu Cheng said, "I didn't expect that you would come to Sardinia so soon after that incident. I don't know whether to say that you are generous or Sardinia is more generous."

Tirpitz gathered her short hair that was blown by the sea breeze and said, "I was a little surprised to see the Royal Navy ship girl here just now, but when I think about Sardinia's style of doing things, I'm not surprised anymore."

"Sardinia is indeed more tolerant."

Liu Cheng hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Why didn't Ron come with us this time?"

"She has a mission to complete." Tirpitz blinked. "Do you miss her, or are you afraid that she will do something irrational after not seeing you?"

"A little bit of both." Liu Cheng still felt a little guilty, after all, he was the one who was philandering first.

"It's okay, I'll help you persuade her."

"That's good." Liu Cheng said shamelessly, "I feel relieved to see that you have such a good relationship."

"Ron and I do have a very good relationship..."

Tirpitz smiled playfully and said, "But what I mean is that she can't beat me, so you can rest assured."

Liu Cheng turned his head and looked at Tirpitz's dreamy and beautiful smile, which was still so cold and intellectual.

"You are not my cool Tirpitz, who are you?"

Chapter 103 I Hope You Have a Big Harem

Tirpitz pushed the short hair behind his ears and asked awkwardly, "Is it not good for me to do this?"
