The ship girl admiral is twelve years old!

The energetic little sister Carl felt even more regretful that she really shouldn't have gotten close to Lele.

Lele took them to the big bathroom on the second floor. When he saw the two sisters were about to go into the bathroom together, Lele's underage heart was deeply shocked.

"Sister, sister..." Lele stammered, "You two want to take a shower together?"

They smiled at each other, and Karl said with a chuckle, "It's normal to take a bath together, right? I just want to take this opportunity to have a private conversation with my sister."

After the surging emotional wave passed, the strong-willed Konigsberg winked at Lele and said, "Then do you want to bathe with your sister? - Besides Du Jin and my sisters, I only don't mind bathing with you now."

Lele blushed and quickly stuffed the clothes, bath towel and face towel to them. After responding vaguely, he slipped downstairs like a flash.

Seeing Admiral Lele, who seemed intelligent and adult in front of them, finally showing the shyness that only belonged to his age, the two sisters laughed so hard that they were shaking with laughter.

"I'm finally able to see the admiral like this. Otherwise, when I was in front of him, I felt that he was the parent and I was his child." Carl laughed.

"...Heh, to some extent, I am also a child."

Thinking of his previous arrogant and proud character, as well as his stubborn mind, Connie couldn't help but restrain his smile, and his eyes dimmed.

But even though he was like this, Wang Lele completely forgave himself like a loving father treating his naughty daughter.

Really... he has the heart of an admiral.

……

……

Seeing Karl and Connie walking downstairs in high spirits wearing Li Dujin's old pajamas, Lele turned off the TV and asked them, "How are they? Do the clothes still fit?"

"Of course it fits."

And it has a lot of Li Dujin's flavor in it, a bit happy, but...

"It's just that my chest feels a little tight..."

Carl fiddled with the buttons on her opal in frustration.

It was obviously inappropriate to discuss these topics with the seniors, so Lele shyly changed the subject, "I'll take you to the guest room for rest."

Carl was surprised and said, "Admiral...will you allow us to rest at your house tonight?"

Lele said angrily, "What kind of question is that? Would I drive you out to spend the night?"

There are so many lounges on the second floor. In the past, Lele felt that the space here was too big for too few people, and it was a bit empty. Now, he thinks that not having to squeeze guests into one room overnight is one of the few benefits.

Carl hadn't slept for many days. Although she was a ship girl, she was extremely tired. Once her body touched the bed, she didn't want to get up and fell into a sweet sleep in an instant.

Watching Konigsberg silently helping his sister to straighten her sleeping position and covering her with a quilt, and then leaving, Lele wanted to say something several times but always stopped herself from speaking.

"What's wrong, Mr. Admiral?"

Konigsberg tilted his head to look at him, and suddenly smiled charmingly, "Oh, by the way, what I said before counts now, and it will count forever in the future. You can use my body anytime, anywhere..."

Lele quickly shook her head, "No, no... I, I just wanted to ask you about Mom's past in the garrison..."

Koni was startled, "Du Jin?"

Lele nodded.

Connie smiled, "It seems we have a lot to talk about. Why don't we just go to my room and sit down and talk slowly."

"Ah."

Lele turned on the dim bedside lamp in the guest room where Connie was staying so that the room would not be completely dark. She sat on a chair beside her and thought for a while before saying, "Sister Connie, tell me some interesting things that happened when Mom and you were in the garrison."

Konigsberg was stunned again.

She thought the young admiral wanted to know about Li Dujin's treatment of the iron-blooded ship girl, so as to gain the favor of cold-tempered ship girls like Count Zeppelin. If so, she would be happy to help. But unexpectedly, Lele really just wanted to chat with her.

However, when it comes to Du Jin, Kony won't get tired.

157 Sympathy Deteriorates

Connie was shocked and sat down next to Lele's bed. He recalled the past events in the garrison and slowly told him the story.

Du Jin used to love teasing the tsundere Hipper with words, often mistook Tirpitz for Enterprise, which led to the leaders of the two camps always quarreling (competing for favor) whenever they met, was played a horse-riding game by the little German princess, played hide-and-seek with the Z-series lolita students in the royal dormitory and was caught by Nelson and scolded half to death, and so on.

Although these stories may sound too boring to others, they are indeed real to the ship girls, a kind of beautiful, sweet memory of small happiness.

After saying a lot of things, Connie suddenly stopped talking and looked at Lele.

Lele was still smiling, and as an observer, his attitude was obviously very good. However, his eyes were slightly half closed, which made him look a little sad.

Hearing that Connie didn't speak, Lele blinked, and the slightly sentimental expression instantly disappeared. He exhaled, cheered up and said, "Why don't you continue?"

Konigsberg looked at him cautiously. "Young Admiral, why do you want to know these little things?"

"I just want to know what mom has been like in the tutelary fort over the years."

"I see!"

Connie thought she understood. Did the Admiral still think there was something fishy about Du Jin's death? "I'll tell you about the medical examination report that Du Jin had done with the Goddess of the Kitchen God over the years..."

Lele said quickly, "No, no... Just like before, just talk about daily things, just talk about daily things..."

At the end of his words, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Connie finally felt something was not right.

"Mr. Little Admiral," she said, "I have opened my heart to you. In exchange, if you have anything to say, just tell me boldly. Or do you still not forgive me in your heart?"

Lele kept shaking his hands, which made Connie a little angry.

Obviously something happened.

After their experiences together in the garrison a few days ago, she already knew that Lele was the kind of child who liked to keep everything to herself.

...But think about it, most of the considerate and gentle people don't like to tell others about their troubles, for fear of causing trouble to others. For such a child, you have to pester him desperately to make him confide a little.

Unable to resist Konigsberg's soft words, Lele said shyly, "Konni, I'm not hiding anything from you. I really just want to hear about what happened to my mother in the garrison in recent years, because..."

He paused and said, "Because she spent most of her time in the tutelary fort, I don't know much about her."

Lele has chosen his words as best as possible so that his words do not sound complaining.

But Connie stared at the big boy in front of him, his heart slightly hurt, and he still understood the hidden meaning of the words.

Li Dujin spent most of her time at the garrison dealing with the ship girls. Therefore, she had very little time to spend with Lele.

Even after her mother died in the line of duty, the child did not receive as much care as the ship girls in the naval base.

If you think about it carefully, the maternal love and past memories that Lele received from Li Dujin are not as much as those from the girls of the circling bay fleet under her command. What the hell is this?

Also because Lele and Li Dujin didn't spend much time together, in the end it turned out that it was Li Dujin's ship girl who understood her affairs better.

Until now... he could only pick up the fragments of memories of his mother and the ship girls from Konigsberg's mouth, trying to savor the happy memories between his mother and the ship girls, and he was afraid of being discovered by Konigsberg.

As a son, he actually has to learn about his mother from other people.

It's so humble that it's reduced to dust.

After thinking about this, the pain caused by the mixture of sympathy and pity in her heart began to increase dramatically, and the tears that Konigsberg tried so hard to hold back could no longer be held back and welled up in her eyes.

Finally, she thought about how she had been mean to Du Jin and let her child leave Huanwan, and her emotions burst out again. She pulled Le Le over and hugged him tightly, as if she wanted to hold him in her arms.

"I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry..."

Only now did she realize how ridiculous it was for her to reject the idea of ​​letting Du Jin's child succeed her. Only now did she realize that this child had endured no less pain than she had. Only now did she realize that she had received more love and care from Du Jin than from Le Le, but she was still unaware of it.

She has empathy only now.

Seeing Koni hugging her and crying bitterly, Lele sighed and finally spoke out her true feelings:

"Mom always comes home very late, and she never tells me about her work or her life in Huanwan... However, she could have lived and eaten in Huanwan, and didn't have to go home to take care of me. But she still insisted on coming back every day. So, you don't have to feel sorry for me, I am already very satisfied and happy. And now, I just want to know every little thing you and mom have experienced... Don't feel sad for me, right?"

He stroked Connie's back.

Konigsberg shook his head, choking with sobs and unable to speak, crying sadly and painfully, as if he wanted to cry out all his regrets and overwhelming apologies.

However, halfway through crying, Connie suddenly turned around and carried Lele in his arms to the center of the big bed.

"Eh? Sis, sis?"

Flowing... No, Connie's posture has changed. She rides on Lele who is lying on the bed, and the maternal love in her eyes gradually deepens.

"I know I was wrong..."

She hissed, "From now on, I—and even all the ship girls in the bay—will spoil you on behalf of Du Jin."

Her eyes became stern. “If you ask, I will pick them down for you even if they are the stars in the sky!”

Lele thought about it and realized that he had seen this passage in his deskmate Lin Peipei's novel about a domineering CEO. He twisted his body left and right and smiled uncomfortably.

"Sister Kony, I know what you mean. Now, I want to go down..."

"Sister, haven't you spoiled me yet?"

"This is not called pampering... um..."

Fortunately, before something that shouldn't have happened happened, a shocked cry suddenly came from the doorway:

"A Le! - That's great. You've learned how to lure girls home to spend the night with you. You've finally grown up!"

Li Zhixin came back from get off work.

Hearing the noise coming from the second floor, my aunt went over to take a look and felt relieved.

Lele crawled out from under the murder weapon and breathed some fresh air, then he glared at her unhappily.

"Aunt! Just a reminder, I'm not in junior high school yet."

Damn, is there anyone like you who would sigh like that to your underage nephew?

158 Pushing the limits

"Please hand over your nephew to us!"

"We will treat him well!"

Li Zhixin sat on the sofa in the hall with an expressionless face, accepting the affectionate and sincere bows from Konigsberg and Karl Errus.

Eh? Wasn't Carl sleeping? Why did he wake up?

It's very simple. Just whip her fleshy part (**) with a whip and that lively little girl will wake up with a scream.

"I heard that you were the ship girl who forced Lele to leave the bay..." Li Zhixin crossed her legs and looked at Königsberg meaningfully.

Connie's face flushed, but he didn't refute, "I'm sorry, I was so stupid before!"

Lele, who was standing aside, also tried to smooth things over. He smiled sweetly at Li Zhixin and said, "Aunt, this is not a bad thing. If we hadn't encountered this incident, we wouldn't be together again so soon."

Li Zhixin laughed and said, "They say a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and you just went to Huanwan to work for two days, but you turned your elbow outward and spoke well of others?"

Lele smiled and said, "We are not other people, we are clearly a family."

Connie and Carl lowered their heads in shame after hearing the young admiral's heartwarming words. They were touched and couldn't help but feel regretful again.

Lele had always regarded the shipgirls in Huanwan as a family, but he had been blinded by greed and kept dwelling on trivial matters, thinking that Lele could never replace Li Dujin...

Li Zhixin sighed. After this incident, the final outcome seemed to be a happy one, but Lele, my lovely nephew, how can you mend the rift in your heart?

But since Lele had spoken, she felt embarrassed to offend the boy's admiral's authority, so she stopped speaking harshly to the two iron-blooded ship girls and said, "It's late. It's time to go to bed."

"Okay. Connie, Sister Carl, please continue to go to the two guest rooms..."

“They can’t stay in the guest rooms.”

"what?"

Lele was suddenly confused by Li Zhixin's words.

Connie whispered, "We really shouldn't continue to rest in the Admiral's house... Carl, let's go."

Carl nodded sadly.

This time, it was Li Zhixin who was confused. She tilted her head and said, "You must have misunderstood me. I mean, you don't have to go to the guest room tonight. Just go to Lele's room and sleep with him."

"what??"

This time all three of them were stunned.

Li Zhixin smiled and squinted her eyes, "After the admiral and the ship girl reconciled, in order to show that there is indeed no rift between them, shouldn't they sleep together for a night to verify it first?"

Lele was slightly annoyed and said angrily, "What kind of twisted logic is this?"
