Minato meets his ex-girlfriend

"..."

The atmosphere in the cafeteria was heavy.

Everyone's expressions were heavy, the commander could guess.

It's all because of the Gatling incident between Shokaku and Katsuragi yesterday. Oh, by the way, I heard that it's also because of Fuso and Javelin. Anyway, the resources in the Nankai Port area are running out.

Today's lunch is provided by Feng Xiang.

"Feng Xiang, give me one."

The commander tiptoed to the food counter and asked, "What are we having today?"

"Commander, let's have cold noodles today."

Feng Xiang forced an ugly smile to the commander.

Even Minato's mother, Feng Xiang, is like this, so you can imagine the state of the other ship girls.

"Well, give me one, with vinegar."

The commander didn't know what to say.

The cold noodles were brought to the table with plenty of ingredients and condiments.

Everyone was eating in silence with their heads down.

too frightening.

"Is this hell?"

The commander muttered to himself.

I have never seen Nanhai National Kindergarten so quiet.

Last night, in order to make everyone happy, the commander blew up all the hundreds of fireworks piled up in the warehouse. Even so, everyone was still unhappy.

How can I make everyone happy?

"commander……"

While he was worrying, Shokaku, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke to the commander.

The commander was shocked and smiled, "Shokaku, what's wrong?"

"Really sorry."

Shokaku had a sad expression on his face.

"I don't mind, no need to apologize."

The commander smiled.

Things have already happened, you can't just put on a deadpan look and say forgiveness.

"I'll find a way to deal with the materials."

The commander said seriously.

"Eh?"

Shokaku's eyes widened, "What did the commander say?"

"I said I'd find a way."

"It's a lie. There are only a few resources left. We can't even go on an expedition..."

“Who said it can’t be done?”

The commander slapped the table.

Then he raised his palm.

A snap of the fingers.

"Snapped."

A bouquet of red diamond flowers appeared in his hand.

Shokaku opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

The other ship girls in the cafeteria also widened their eyes when they saw this scene.

That's right, when coming out, Akashi handed the bouquet of diamond flowers to the commander.

Let’s just say…it’s a dowry?

The commander felt that this was Akashi's intention and should not be given to others, but in order to make everyone happy, he had to do this.

A simple little magic trick attracted everyone's attention.

"noob……"

Shokaku was somewhat touched, "What is this?"

"Here, go buy some clothes."

"Is it really possible?"

Shokaku's expression brightened.

Even the cafeteria became noisy and crowded.

"Commander, I want one too!"

"Commander, Commander, I want new clothes too!"

"commander!!!"

In the blink of an eye, the roof of the cafeteria was about to be blown off by the cheers of the ship girls.

Is it true that for women, clothes are the primary motivation?

The commander couldn't help but laugh and waved his hand.

"Buy! Buy as much as you want! The diamonds I gave to Shokaku are enough for all of you to buy clothes."

"Oh! Go buy a swimsuit!"

"Swimsuit swimsuit!"

"I'm going to the beach and ask the Commander to put sunscreen on me!"

Listening to the cheers of the ship girls, the commander's mood also improved.

But why do people want swimsuits?

………………

After taking a short break in the cafeteria, the commander planned to go back to his room to build the Gundam with Akashi.

"This is not enough."

On the way back to the room, the commander suddenly stopped.

Yes, that doesn’t work.

Although the mood of the ship girls in the cafeteria has eased a little, it would be very irresponsible to go back and fight Gundam right away.

At least we should communicate with other ship girls and express our condolences.

The commander arrived at Katsuragi's room.

Yesterday's resource burning incident was mainly caused by Shokaku and Katsuragi, so if we have to say which ship girl feels the most remorseful and guilty.

Of course it's Shokaku and Katsuragi.

Shokaku has already enlightened me. I didn't see Katsuragi in the cafeteria, so I came to ask him.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

The commander knocked on Katsuragi's door.

"Oh, here I come."

Zuikaku's voice came from inside.

The door is open.

"commander?"

"Zuihe?"

Zuikaku and the commander looked at each other.

Finally, it was the commander who spoke first.

"Why is Zuikaku in Katsuragi's room?"

"Well... Katsuragi asked me to help her pick out a swimsuit."

"Swimsuit again?"

The commander was surprised.

Is everyone planning something behind his back?

"Who is the commander?"

This time it was Zuikaku's turn to ask questions.

"Shokaku and Katsuragi got into trouble yesterday. I saw that they both looked very guilty."

The commander scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Let me take a look at the situation."

"I see, Commander, how considerate."

Zuikaku smiled and opened the door for the commander.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Katsuragi dressed in hot pants, crossing his legs and looking at a swimsuit magazine with fashionable outfits.

"Zuihe, come and help me take a look at this one—"

"Eeheeeheeehee!"

Katsuragi finally noticed the commander who came to his room.

"F-F-Why is the Commander here!?"

Katsuragi was startled, obviously not expecting the commander to come to his room.

"You seemed very sad yesterday, so I came to see you. You looked..."

The commander was suspicious, "Looks like he's very happy?"

“No, I didn’t!”

"I feel relieved if you are happy. Then I will go back first?"

"No, Commander, don't!"

As the commander started to leave, Katsuragi quickly grabbed the commander's arm.

"I'm so sad right now, Commander, please comfort me!"

In just these few seconds, Katsuragi had already shed tears.

She wiped her tears and wailed, "I feel so miserable that I am about to die."

"..."

Are these crocodile tears?

The commander was speechless and could only sit down.

"Then how can I comfort you?"

"Help me pick out a swimsuit."

Katsuragi quickly handed the swimsuit magazine in his hand to the commander.

"Why are you suddenly interested in swimsuit magazines?"

The commander asked as he looked at the models in the magazine.

"Because Zuikaku, Cygnet, and Agano have been showing off, so I want one too."

Katsuragi said, "So I want to choose one too."
