The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

It happened to a family member.

As long as no one in the family is involved, there won't be any problem.

If it happens, no matter whether it is a big thing or a small thing, it will eventually become a big thing.

Therefore, people here are very taboo about certain special surnames.

Just like the people in ancient times avoided using surnames that symbolized imperial power.

Full of fear.

"…Then can we not look for the 'family' members?"

Rafi suddenly paused and asked the most crucial question.

Although she looked like she didn't listen at all.

But I heard it all.

Moreover, it grasps the key point.

"Most of the important industries in the Central Weaving District are controlled by a few big families. For things like the repair pool, even if you don't think about it, you can guess that it is definitely controlled by the family."

Glasgow paused his finger movements and closed the notebook.

"If you want to use the repair pool, you can only go and meet a few local families."

This is undoubtedly a risky decision.

But there is no other way besides this.

"It's a money deal anyway, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Rafi asked.

"But the key is that we..."

There is no commander at the moment.

Given Sakura Empire's rejection of mutants, it is definitely not possible to conduct transactions with this identity.

"No one will investigate anyway, so why not just pretend?"

"In theory, there is no problem. But..."

Identity is a troublesome thing.

What if I encounter a detection device like last time again?

It's over.

For the second question, you can act according to circumstances. With the experience from last time, you can find a way to avoid it this time.

There is no way to avoid the identity.

As long as one is a commander, he must have identity information unique to the commander.

Lin Shen’s is no longer usable, and his commander qualification has been completely banned in Donghuang.

That’s why I had to find a way to borrow someone else’s last time.

"What about identity verification? We can't just be rootless and floating around."

"Looking for someone to borrow it from?"

Lafite decided to trust Lin Shen's wisdom.

"The commander is not here this time, so we are not so sure of doing this. The risk is too high."

Glasgow directly rejected this approach.

"Your last operation didn't seem that difficult?"

Rafi also saw the chat records at that time.

"It just looks like that."

Glasgow explained.

"The commander helped us solve the most troublesome problems. We just needed to follow his orders. But now it's different. The commander is not here. We can't solve those problems by ourselves."

Just choosing the person to kidnap is a huge problem.

"What should I do?"

Rafi splashed his hands together and continued to put the sundae into his mouth.

This thing is delicious, but it's expensive. One bite will cost at least several dollars.

Glasgow had not intended to be so extravagant.

But she wanted to rest here, so she couldn't just order the smallest one.

That way it won't last long at all.

It's so weird just sitting here.

"..."

Hearing Rafi's fatal question, Glasgow pondered for a while.

Then I ate a sundae.

She felt like her brain was no longer functioning.

Thinking is a very troublesome thing.

Now that the strongest brain is gone, the trouble level of this matter has increased exponentially.

"Let me think about it..."

Glasgow said softly while eating.

"We're almost done with the sundae."

“…Then buy another one.”

"You'll get fat."

Rafi said, staring at Glasgow.

“…Am I fat?”

Glasgow frowned and pulled his thoughts away for a bit.

"Ah."

"How is that possible? I won't gain weight."

"Glasgow."

"Ok?"

"Eat less."

"Why...!? And why are you eating so happily!?"

"I'm not afraid of being fat. But, you're already fat."

"I told you I won't gain weight—"

Glasgow was forced to interrupt his thoughts before he noticed what Rafi was referring to.

She paused, then chuckled and replied.

"Little Rafi, you won't grow up no matter how much you eat, so you'd better give up as soon as possible."

"..."

Rafi turned his depression into appetite.

After being interrupted, Glasgow was unable to continue thinking deeply.

She ate her sundae with graceful movements while looking at the street view outside the window.

The only thought in her mind now was -

When will Lin Shen wake up?

Problems left alone will not be solved, nor will they go away.

When Glasgow relaxed and came to his senses, he saw the same problem.

There is even one more question.

"Where are we staying tonight?"

Rafi leaned back in his chair and asked with a somewhat satisfied expression.

"……do not know."

Before the previous problem is solved, the next one comes up.

"live in hotel?"

"No identity."

"..."

Glasgow struggled for a moment, then gave up thinking.

"Just find a place to stay for one night."

"So casual."

"What can I do? I'm not a god, nor am I Doraemon. I can't produce a magic tool!"

Glasgow let out a long sigh.

Just when I was about to say something else, the terminal, which had been silent, suddenly lit up.

"Ding dong..."

Then a strange message alert sound was heard.

"..."

"..."

Rafi and Glasgow looked at each other.

"Will anyone contact us at this time?"

"We should contact the commander...but how could anyone contact the commander at this time?"

"have a look."

"…I always feel like it's not a good thing…"

16. No other choice

Glasgow ruled out the possibility that the terminal could be traced.

Even though her location was tracked, she had never seen anything like a wanted warrant.

And now, they are in Sakura Empire.

Even if they were chasing me, they wouldn’t come here, right…?

With this in mind, Glasgow still opened the terminal to confirm the source of the message.

There are very few software used for communication in this era, and most communication is done through access to the intranet.

If it is a more secretive system, several layers of identity verification will be performed.

Lin Shen has joined many similar systems.

For example, the one from Hanning College, although it has been blacklisted now.

For example, the internal system of the Bingye Command.

Although this has also been blocked.

In the end, there was only one left.

After all, Lin Shen has no friends at CMA.
