Minato meets his ex-girlfriend

"What about Shokaku and Zuikaku?"

Fuso raised her hand and asked, "They also went back to their hometown with the commander, right?"

"Well, about this..."

The commander was a little flustered and gave a brief explanation.

The logic is not strict and many things are omitted.

For the ship girls in the South Sea Port area, those were enough to drive them crazy, so it was better to keep it secret.

Perhaps they understood and everyone calmed down again.

"Any more questions?"

The commander looked around and said, "Raise your hand if you have any questions."

No one raised their hands.

"Very good, let's stop here for today. It's really hard for you to come to the conference room to attend a lecture on the first day of the Lunar New Year. I brought some specialties from my hometown. Everyone, please choose some and take them away."

The commander took out his backpack while saying this.

Everyone took the specialties they brought from their backpacks and left happily, and the backpacks were suddenly empty.

The Commander, Shokaku, Zuikaku, and Bismarck were the only ones left in the meeting room.

"terribly sorry."

Bismarck lowered his head and said, "I didn't know today was such an important festival for Donghuang. I've caused you a lot of trouble."

"It's okay, please don't mind it. But is Bismarck okay?"

"What do you mean, Commander?"

"Without Bismarck's companions here, it will be very lonely in the future."

The commander reminded: "In addition, the Azure Lane to which Donghuang belongs and the Red Axis to which Iron Blood belongs are mortal enemies. I don't know how you got the letter of appointment, but you may have to fight against Iron Blood's ship girls in the future."

"..."

Bismarck was silent.

"Isn't the commander considered a companion?"

"what?"

"Commander, aren't you considered a companion to me?"

"It is definitely counted..."

"That's enough."

The commander wanted to say something, but when he saw the expressionless look on Bismarck's face, he lost the courage to say anything.

How can I put it? If I want to open Bismarck's heart, I have to face the hurdle that I can't get over.

Why did he leave Iron Blood?

It cannot be said, at least not until Admiral Yokosuka is killed.

"I'm sorry for leaving Ironblood without a word."

That was all the commander could say.

"Ah."

"Besides, you can be more casual in the Nanhai Port area."

The commander said: "Fuso is not hostile to you, it's just that the atmosphere among us is like this."

"Oh."

Bismarck's tone was drawn out, full of meaning.

She looked at Shokaku and the other man, "By the way, who are they?"

"They are Shokaku and Zuikaku."

The commander urged the Shokaku sisters to introduce themselves with his eyes.

"Thank you for your care. I am the first ship of the Shokaku class, Shokaku."

"Likewise, the second ship, Zuikaku."

Shokaku smiled, while Zuikaku was wary.

"Okay, let me introduce myself. I'm the first ship of the Bismarck class. Although the Bismarck is a battleship of ordinary specifications, it is not a weak character either."

Bismarck showed no sign of weakness either.

She glanced at Zuikaku and suddenly said, "Are you the Kai-2 aircraft carrier?"

It was a very presumptuous question to ask, and Zuikaku was slightly stunned.

"Correct."

Zuikaku answered.

"As a fellow shipgirl from the South Sea Port area, I want to remind you."

"what?"

"You said during the live broadcast that you could win even against War-weary. I don't know your true strength, but you'd better not underestimate that guy."

"Well, I see."

Sparks flew between just a few words.

"It's getting late now."

The commander said quickly: "I guess everyone hasn't had breakfast yet, let's go to the cafeteria and have breakfast together."

"commander."

As everyone was about to leave, Bismarck said, "I have something to tell you."

"Ok?"

The commander was stunned.

Shokaku and Zuikaku also looked towards Bismarck, looking somewhat puzzled.

"I mean, Commander, give me some time."

Bismarck emphasized.

Now Shokaku and the other two understood. Zuikaku looked unhappy and reluctant, but after the commander's kind words, he left first.

There was silence in the conference room.

"What to say?" asked the commander.

"Commander Bai Ri... No, Bai, can you listen to me carefully?"

Bismarck was serious.

"Well, you said."

"Are you...dating Shokaku and Zuikaku?"

"what?"

The commander was confused by the question.

It is true that I subconsciously did not pay attention to the sense of propriety when interacting with Shokaku and Zuikaku.

"Where did you find it?"

"I can tell from your expression and what you said in the previous meeting."

Bismarck replied expressionlessly.

"Yes."

The commander sighed, "You guessed right, I'm dating them and I've made up my mind."

"Both of them?"

"Ah."

"already……"

Bismarck narrowed his eyes, his expression frighteningly serious, "Are you ready?"

"Yes, I have made up my mind."

The commander lowered the brim of his hat and answered seriously.

………………

"..."

Outside.

I heard what the commander said, about his relationship with Shokaku and Zuikaku.

Before he went back to visit his family, the relationship between the commander and Shokaku and Zuikaku didn't seem special.

Is it just because of these few days?

So cunning, so cunning, so cunning.

Why wasn't I chosen?

"After that... let's talk to the commander."

Chapter 124: Can We Get Married?

Commander's room.

"You should have a good rest, Xiaobai."

"Good night, Xiaobai."

"OK, good night."

I said goodnight to Shokaku and Zuikaku at the door and watched them return to their room.

The first day of the first lunar month ended in a restful atmosphere.

I had been planning to work overtime to process documents, but was interrupted by Z23. She said that the port area was on holiday these days and they were just processing previous documents. Although she was anxious, it was not to the point of working overtime on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Then Z23 was left alone to process the documents.

What a little angel she is. Although her face looks cold, she is always caring for the commander in her heart.

I was also educated using his words.

"If you're busy on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you'll be busy the whole year."

Z23 was processing documents at the time and didn't even look at the commander. "The commander's gastric ulcer is already serious. It will get worse if it continues like this."

"But isn't it the same for Z23..."

"I'm a ship girl, so I don't have any holidays."

"..."

So warm, Z23.

Lying on the bed with the light on, the commander looked at the ceiling.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year and according to regulations we have to light wax lanterns, but there are no gods to worship in the port area. We can't offer sacrifices to the rubber from Guadalcanal Island, as all that rubber has been exported and made into condoms by Durex.

Lighting lanterns at night is also for good luck. It is not a religious belief, it is just a custom.

In the end, the matter between him and the Shokaku sisters was still not made clear.

After all, if you take a broader view, it's almost like bigamy.
