The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

"I'm sorry I've held everyone back."

Although there was still no expression on Ayanami's face, there was obvious disappointment in her emotion.

She knew very well that if it wasn't for the purpose of extending her life, Lin Shen wouldn't still be sleeping in bed.

"really."

Glasgow said nothing to comfort him, but just nodded.

"..."

The atmosphere became a little heavy.

"But it's the commander's choice."

Glasgow added after a few seconds.

"It doesn't matter whether you are holding us back or not. The commander decided to save you, and that's it. He simply wanted to save you, and he did save you, that's all."

"..."

Although Ayanami didn't have much communication with Lin Shen.

But she seemed to understand the feeling.

Just like she was determined to save the guy who was holding her back.

If I have to say, there is no special reason.

I just wanted to do this, so I chose to do it, that's all...

Even if there are other reasons, it has nothing to do with whether that guy is holding us back.

Ayanami seemed to understand somewhat how the ship girl felt at that time.

The favor of others is not so easy to accept.

Especially since it was a life-saving favor.

It's even more unrewarding, right?

But that guy died in the end...

I wonder if the result would be different if I were the one being rescued this time?

Ayanami didn't know the answer to this question.

But she knew that once Lin Shen woke up, he would definitely find a way to avoid this terrible outcome.

"When do we leave?"

Ayanami asked instead of being depressed.

"Wait two days."

Glasgow observed the wounds on Ayanami's body, did some calculations and then came to a conclusion.

There are many factors she needs to consider.

For example, external factors, the current situation of Sakura Empire, the situation near the central region, and whether there are any areas that are currently at war.

Just how hostile is the mutant population?

How tightly the border is sealed.

Is it possible to sneak across the border bypassing it?

What problems will you face after entering?

This information takes time to figure out.

Very troublesome.

But they were all things Lin Shen wrote casually in his notebook.

He didn't have time to think deeply about it, so he just listed all the problems out.

Once these issues are clarified, it's time to set off.

However, in the terminal's notepad, the most important question is still——

How can I get in and get a spot to use the repair pool?

Did you buy it? Stolen it? Robbed it? Coerced it?

Where will the venue be?

Etc., etc……

There are a lot of problems.

This should have been what Lin Shen was thinking about.

Now it all falls on Glasgow.

She felt that her brain was a little insufficient.

All in all, the safest way is for two people to go in first and look for an opportunity.

Coincidentally, Hatsushimo is the ship girl of the Sakura Empire.

She was born to speak the language of the Sakura Empire.

However, Hatsushimo's personality is not suitable for gathering intelligence.

Glasgow planned to follow.

But she is not very proficient in the language of Sakura Empire.

What language a ship girl knows depends on which country she originally belongs to.

The other is to look at the commander's most commonly used language, which is his native language.

Therefore, most of the ship girls are born with the ability to master two languages.

If you want to learn the language of another country, you still need to learn it later...

Now in the fleet, apart from Hatsushimo, Ayanami is the only ship girl of the Sakura Empire.

But, Ayanami is injured.

Moreover, Ayanami seems to have a three-no personality.

Is it really suitable for the job of gathering intelligence in a tactful way?

After all, if they sneaked in, they would be illegal immigrants.

Solving the problem of where to stay is also a troublesome part...

"Can I help you with anything?"

Ayanami noticed that Glasgow's eyes were occasionally looking at her, so she asked.

"...Ayanami, are you capable of gathering intelligence?"

"To gather intelligence..."

Ayanami thought about it.

"In other words, I need to communicate with people frequently? Sorry, I'm not very good at communication..."

"That's right."

Ayanami is the type who is mostly silent.

I am not very good at expressing my thoughts directly.

It's really difficult to let her go, especially when she's injured.

Is it true that I can only go by myself?

Glasgow thought.

The most important problems can only be solved by yourself. Although there are many people around you, there are not many who can share some of the pressure.

Glasgow felt as if he could understand a little bit of what Lin Shen felt when he was conducting.

The only difference is that he can still mobilize everyone and let everyone do their job in an orderly manner.

"Then I and Hatsushimo will have to go together. You guys just stay here and take good care of the commander... We'll set off in two days."

Glasgow has made his decision.

Then I got up and prepared lunch.

Of course, the ship girl doesn't need to eat, and there are no conditions now, so she should save trouble if possible.

But Lin Shen couldn't eat on an empty stomach.

Glasgow could only feed him a little porridge and water, very little.

If Lin Shen's heart hadn't been still beating strongly, Glasgow would have really worried that he would never wake up.

After the porridge is ready, Glasgow is placed aside as usual to wait for it to cool down a little.

Then he began to look through the notebook left by Lin Shen again.

And the conversation between Hatsushimo and Lafite in the soul network.

Today's reconnaissance still seems to have not made any good progress.

If the defense of Sakura Empire in Nakajima is tighter than that of Eastern Empire in Yongsheng.

Maybe it’s because Zhongzhi is a district…

Being the first to be established, it is naturally the most rigorous.

And we need to trade with Donghuang.

Safety along the way is also a top priority.

Due to this influence, it would be very difficult to find a way to sneak in.

"..."

Glasgow raised his head from his thoughts when he noticed a pair of timid eyes looking at him.

"What's up, Cupid?"

Cupid is the ship girl with whom Lin Shen signed a soul contract after he left Bingye.

This child chose to follow Lin Shen since being rescued.

"Um, do you need my help?"

Cupid pointed to the rice porridge on the table.

"Do you know?"

"I... haven't tried it, but it should, should be fine..."

"..."

He doesn't seem to have any confidence at all.

I just simply wanted to help.

Even McCall had his own mission, so there was nothing to do in this simple temporary base, so only Ayanami and Cupid were left.

Ayanami is a wounded person, so it's okay.

But Cupid...

"Okay, then it's up to you."

Glasgow thought about it and nodded.

"Okay, okay!"

"Since you have no experience in caring for patients, I will teach you a few times first. After that, when I'm not around, I'll ask you to take good care of the commander. Is that ok?"

"no problem……!"

Cupid replied seriously.

Although it was only a brief contact, Glasgow judged that Cupid would be very suitable for taking care of people.

Although she is not a member of the maid team, because of her personality, maybe she is unexpectedly suitable?
