The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

Glasgow took out the unmelted sundae from the ship's space and stuffed it into McCall's hand.

Then he walked into the house without looking back.

"…Is this what you gained from this trip?"

McCall turned to look at Rafi next to him.

"Ah."

"..."

"We found a way to use the restoration pool, though."

"only?"

"Need to do a little task."

"What mission?"

"I'm not sure yet. But it should be a little dangerous."

"Do you need help?"

"I don't know. It depends on the arrangements in Glasgow."

Rafi yawned.

She doesn't care about whether it's a mission or not.

As long as Ayanami is okay.

Otherwise, Lin Shen would have slept for so many days in vain.

As the two men returned to the house, Glasgow made final arrangements.

"Rafi, you stay here and be responsible for the commander's safety."

"..."

Rafi was a little surprised, but didn't say anything and nodded.

"Cupid will also stay and take care of the commander. Ayanami, me, and McCall, the three of us will go to Nakaori again to see if the other party's promise is trustworthy."

After that, Glasgow asked.

"Any objections?"

"I have."

McCall raised his hand.

"explain."

"Shouldn't I stay here? I'm not strong enough, and if I follow you, I'll just be a drag."

Glasgow looked at her for a moment and nodded.

"Yes."

"..."

"That's why I can't let you stay here. I'm worried that the enemy has a lot of spies and our current position might be exposed. So, leaving Laffite here will allow us to transfer the commander as safely as possible. And if you move with me, we can adapt to the situation and it doesn't necessarily have to be a battle."

"So that's it..."

McCall gave a slightly bitter smile.

It seems that she was transferred away because she was unable to better protect the commander.

Although this is an arrangement, it is very sensible.

But it's still a bit disheartening.

"The commander once believed in you, so you don't have to feel sorry for yourself. No ship girl is born with strong combat capabilities. We all need to grow. As long as we are willing to work hard, we will be able to respond to the commander's trust sooner or later."

Glasgow, of course, knew what McCall was thinking and said it immediately.

"I know……"

Although I know.

but.

"But, I was born with only one star..."

McCall said.

"Even if you become stronger, it's still limited."

This is a very common situation.

Although all the ship girls are born at level one.

But their star ratings are not the same.

The initial star rating and initial ability values ​​in all aspects all determine their upper limits.

The upper limit of some ship girls is just not high enough.

This is very realistic.

But Glasgow is not in that pessimistic mood.

She gave her answer directly.

"Even if it's limited, it's enough to protect the commander."

"..."

"We all have things we can do. As long as we do our best, that's enough. What's important is not what you actually did, but your attitude. For a commander, the innate abilities of a ship girl make no difference in his eyes. For him, the only difference is whether that ship girl is under his command and whether she is trustworthy. That's all."

This is also true.

This is especially true for McCall.

Her feelings should be the deepest.

It was Lin Shen who pulled her back from the fate of being abandoned.

Even though her face can be seen everywhere.

Glasgow looked at McCall's expression and knew that she had listened, so he took a last sip of chicken soup.

"It is much better for us to do our best to do something than to not be able to do it when the time comes. At least you won't regret the former, because you have indeed tried your best and reached the limit of your ability. As for the latter, you will only resent yourself for every day you live. This is the difference. Therefore, when you have the opportunity to improve your strength, don't hesitate or resist. No matter what you think, as a ship, you are destined to live and die in battle."

Glasgow's words had a different impact on everyone present.

She said what she already understood in a calm tone.

As for how much others can use, that is not something she can control.

Many truths have actually been before us for a long time.

But some people just turn a blind eye.

Language itself has no power.

It only has power over those who accept it.

"Not being able to die on the battlefield is a tragedy for us. Not being able to find a suitable commander is another tragedy for us. Anyway, this matter has been decided. If anyone has any objections, please raise them now. Once we set out, it cannot be changed."

Glasgow gave a final reminder.

But no one else objected to this.

17. Don't make me sound like a nympho.

At night, in the border area of ​​the Central Weaving District.

Glasgow saw the people coming to pick them up.

"signal."

The guy whispered slyly.

"Porridge with red beans."

"Shaobing and sausage."

After confirming that the person who came was right, the guy smiled and said.

"My name is Wei Xiahan. In the next few days, I will be your nominal commander."

"……no problem."

If a ship girl wants to take action, she must have a commander.

If not, they would be arrested on the spot before they could go in and do anything.

"Let's go. When you go in later, remember to act like a real person."

After Wei Xiahan finished speaking, she led the three of them all the way to the border of the Central Weaving District.

She wants to go in openly.

"Is this okay..."

Glasgow reminded.

"Among us, there are some non-registered ship girls."

"Huh? It's okay. We don't need to pass that damn test."

Wei Xiahan waved her hand and replied.

Every commander who enters from here must not only verify his identity, but also his ship girl.

Because all the data of most of the ship girls have been entered into the big database.

So it only takes a very simple scan to confirm whether there is a match.

Actually, there was no such process in the previous border crossings...

If you have to attribute it.

In the end, it all comes back to the incident in Yongsheng District.

And if we attribute the incident in Yongsheng District to the same cause again.

It can be traced back to the incident with Lafite.

In short, because of Lin Shen’s previous “high-profile” behavior, relatively strict verification procedures have been adopted here.

very troublesome.

Finally, we have to consider the fact that they just broke into Glasgow today.

And was discovered.

We are already highly sensitive to variants.

With this kind of thing happening, it is only natural that the rules will become more stringent.

Glasgow still had some doubts about Wei Xiahan's behavior.

If things were not going well, she would have decisively retreated with McCall and Ayanami without looking back.

Soon, after waiting in a long line, Wei Xiahan led the three of them directly to another entrance nearby.

There is no testing procedure here.

"Please stop and show your identification."

The ship girl guarding nearby stopped Wei Xiahan.

"Here, let's check it carefully."

Wei Xiahan took out her terminal very confidently.

Then adjust to a certain interface and scan the other party.

"So you are the guest of the young master of the Nogami family. I am so sorry."

The ship girl in charge of the verification said this expressionlessly in a flattering tone.

Then he was let go.
