The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

"Also, the scoring at the command bureau is quite strict. I hope you can pay more attention to it in the future. I heard that this assessment seems to be very important to you, like an ultimatum, right? The Henning College didn't give me too much information, but your dean did tell me that if you fail this assessment, you... will be disqualified from becoming a commander?"

Xie Cheng's eyes were full of sympathy.

Because such examples are so rare.

Even a commander with a very bad character will not end up having his qualifications revoked.

What on earth did Lin Shen do to deserve such a consequence?

To be honest, even if he has a long history of bad deeds, his qualifications will not be revoked.

There must be deeper reasons behind this, but they are beyond the reach of Jie Cheng.

After Jie Cheng finished speaking, Lin Shen felt something was wrong.

The ship girls behind him seemed to be silently giving him looks with different emotions.

Disqualified...

Even they knew what this meant.

This would not normally happen unless the person had committed a very serious, irreparable crime.

But now there is one right in front of me.

However, several mutants knew why.

too easy.

If you release mutants into the sea, you will be punished sooner or later...

"It's true."

Lin Shen nodded.

"Although I personally sympathize with you... But to be honest, with your reckless style, even if you are not disqualified as a commander, there will be problems in the future. After being disqualified, it is more like protection than a punishment... In short, even if I sympathize with you very much, the score will still be deducted, and I will not relax in the future. After all, every mission here is an actual combat, and we cannot afford to make mistakes. I hope you can understand."

"Of course. I understand."

Lin Shen replied indifferently.

42. Afterthought

Understanding is one thing, but caring about it is another.

After reminding Lin Shen, Jie Cheng glanced at the embarrassed ship girls behind Lin Shen.

"The injuries on their bodies seem to be quite serious. Do they need to be repaired?"

"May I?"

"Although you haven't graduated yet, you are still a commander assigned to the command bureau. Generally speaking, the command bureau provides repair benefits."

However, repairing the injuries on the ship girl is not a cost-free task.

Of course, the costs have to be deducted from other places.

"Generally speaking?"

"With your current authority, each of your shipgirls has three repair opportunities per month." Xie Cheng explained, "After that, we can only start charging. After all, the command bureau is not very wealthy."

"But Hanning's Academy Repair Fluid is just a random soak, right?"

"Should we not compare the safe zone that Hanning has established with Hinode?"

Xie Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes.

The difference between these two places is like that between a roadside stall and a proper restaurant.

If you ask whether it can fill your stomach, then of course it can.

But if you want good service, forget it.

"Come with me, I'll take you to the dormitory area."

"it is good."

……

There is no distinction between genders in the dormitory area, nor is there a separate area for the ship girls to live in.

Fortunately, there are several rooms inside, at least they are not the bunk beds like those in the college.

"If there are any missions in the future, we will contact you directly through the communication system. In addition, because the situation here in Bingye is special and there are many signs of sirens activity in Crooked Neck, you may be assigned more combat missions in the next two days."

After bringing Lin Shen to the dormitory, Jie Cheng gave him a reminder.

"thank you, I know now."

After watching Jie Cheng leave, the several ship girls standing behind Lin Shen all breathed a sigh of relief.

Now it's interesting. Not only did he sneak into Bingye, but he also lived in the command center...

Isn't this simply entering a den of thieves?

"What now, big sister?"

Towns asked directly.

"Are we really going to live here?"

"..."

Nevada thought about it and felt that apart from the slightly higher risk, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

It’s just a pity that our identities are different.

Mutants must have the awareness of being mutants.

Although living here provides many conveniences, at the same time, what if you are discovered?

They would really be dead.

"us--"

"You can leave after the repairs are completed."

Lin Shen took over and said.

He glanced outside, then asked everyone to go into the house and closed the door.

"You will follow Rafi and Glasgow to the bathhouse and take a bath. After that, I will find a suitable time to get you out."

"How dare you continue to help us?"

Tang Si looked at Lin Shen and asked.

"That woman just now said that your qualification as a commander will be revoked, right?"

She folded her hands across her chest. Since things were not so tense for the moment, the several ship girls had enough time to think.

Lin Shen knew clearly that it was extremely dangerous to do so, yet he still dared to do so.

This touched them to some extent.

"It's okay. There's no difference between having the qualification or not."

Lin Shen said casually.

"I saw on CMA that if you don't have the qualifications, you can't even build a ship girl? And the ship girls under your command will also be disbanded. Is this okay?"

It really goes straight to the core of the issue.

But Lin Shen thought they should have noticed it a long time ago.

Could it be that the sincerity I showed before was not enough?

Lin Shen glanced at the others and found that except for the Bulldog, Nevada, Colon and Curacao did not seem surprised.

Only Towns seemed to realize it late and raised this issue now.

"You are not my ship girls anyway, so even if your qualifications are revoked, it won't have any impact on you, right?"

“It really has no impact.”

Towns frowned, feeling like there was something blocked in his heart.

I clearly never felt this way before.

Isn't it natural for mutants to refuse human help?

I always took it for granted before, and even if I got help, I would just think that the guy was so stupid.

But now Towns suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"I really don't understand what's wrong with your brain. Never mind. It's up to you."

Towns waved his hands irritably, not wanting to pursue the issue any further.

"I'm sorry, Towns is always like this."

Nevada smiled apologetically at Lin Shen and then asked.

"Since there's a limit to the number of baths we can take, is it okay if we just go there?"

"It's okay. Anyway, my two ship girls probably won't need to be repaired once a month."

"You are so confident. But you do have the ability to say so."

After witnessing the previous battle with his own eyes, Nevada basically had an estimate of the strength of Lafite and Glasgow.

Very strong.

And it is not just a simple level, but a kind of strength that transcends one's own level.

This should be due to the increase from the soul network.

The biggest difference between mutants and other ship girls lies here.

If mutants do not rely on level suppression, they will have a natural disadvantage in head-on combat.

"I've already made a reservation for you at the bathhouse."

Lin Shen took the terminal and quickly figured out how to use Bingye's internal system.

"Let me take you there, so that there won't be any accidents on the way."

"Okay, thanks again."

Nevada thanked him with a complicated expression, then spoke seriously.

"We accept your unilateral assistance. Likewise, we will not give you a chance to refuse our unilateral return. So look forward to it."

"Really? Then I'll be looking forward to it."

Lin Shen didn't take it to heart. With his strength, he would hardly need help.

I just sighed in my heart - Ah, even mutants have such good personalities if it weren't for their positions.

At least, let's keep things one thing at a time.

Revenge must be taken, favor must be returned——

Of course, perhaps this is still just a one-sided understanding.

But no matter what, from Lin Shen's own understanding, no matter how the character of the ship girl changes, it always retains a simplicity and purity.

"Let's go."

After determining the location of the bathhouse, Lin Shen turned around and opened the door.

Then he rushed over with a group of ship girls.

The interior of the Hiino Command Center seemed quite deserted, and I didn't see many ship girls along the way.

Lin Shen felt that there were fewer people there than in the academy.

But it’s not without benefits.

At least there's no need to queue.

"You are……"

"I'm the new commander and I've already made an appointment."

"Oh ok, let me confirm...Identity verified."
