Minato meets his ex-girlfriend

On the last day of the 30% discount, I finished writing the volume about the closure of the port.

I calculated that I wrote three volumes this month, which means one volume every ten days. That’s not bad.

This volume is more about daily life, and I didn’t realize it was a bit long.

Regarding the portrayal of the ship girls, I did not write about the process of the initial acquaintance. I originally planned to write about this, but it took up too much space in the main plot. Maybe I will open a separate volume later to write about the process of getting to know a certain ship girl.

But there are still only a few people watching this, so I won’t open it for the time being.

This month I worked so hard that I stayed up late to write, couldn't sleep, and my mind was full of the plot.

My body really can’t take it.

So tomorrow is the first day of holiday since the book was published. I will take a day off to recuperate and will start updating the fifth volume on February 1st.

Please give me the monthly ticket if you have one. It’s the last day. Let’s see if I can renew it.

Chapter 234: South Sea Port Area, Start

Nanhai Port Area, apartment gate.

Half past two in the morning.

"Squeak."

The commander pushed the door open stealthily and tiptoed back to his room.

"..."

"..."

As soon as he stepped through the gate, the commander met the eyes of a certain ship girl.

It was like a look that wanted to eat someone.

The green light shone through the darkness, and the commander felt a chill on his back.

It’s not a female ghost, but it’s better than a female ghost.

This evil beast is blocking my way and I can't get through.

The commander was thinking about countermeasures.

"...Commander, do you know what time it is?"

"..."

The commander had no habit of wearing a watch.

My cell phone ran out of battery in the evening, and I didn't have time to buy a power bank when I rushed back.

"perhaps……"

The commander smiled, trying to get away with it, "Twelve o'clock?"

"Commander, you are so modest."

The ship girl in front of him smiled, took out her cell phone and turned on the screen.

"But unfortunately, it's already 2:30 in the morning."

"..."

As expected, there is no way to get away with it.

The commander had guessed it long ago. After all, the person in front of him was the strictest ship girl in the South China Sea Port area, no doubt about it.

Feng Xiang.

To say what happened at night... no, after twelve o'clock it was a new day, it was yesterday.

Something happened last night that caused the commander to move the flight back another two hours.

Then there was a flight delay. After arriving in the city, I waited for an hour for a taxi before I could set off back to the port area.

Then I ran into Fengxiang.

"What time did I say I would be back?"

Feng Xiang stared at the commander with serious eyes that had lost their luster.

"Half past ten..."

"Do you think I can forgive you?"

“…I think it should be possible?”

"Next time something like this happens, you know what the consequences will be, right?"

"...I understand. I won't do it again next time."

"The sound is too quiet!"

"I understand. I won't do it again next time!"

"Louder, I can't hear you."

"I see!"

"..."

It's just like a superior scolding his subordinates.

The commander was sweating profusely.

There will be a bigger storm coming, the commander is a little nervous.

"That's it, put your luggage away and go take a shower."

"Eh?"

Just these two sentences?

The commander stared at Feng Xiang who had returned to his room and was in a daze.

that is it?

It shouldn’t be.

And judging from Feng Xiang's appearance, it seemed that he had been waiting at the apartment door early in the morning.

The humidity in the South China Sea is high, and it is even hotter in the middle of the night. I don’t know how long she has been waiting.

After waiting for so long, all he said was these two sentences.

"Thank you."

The commander muttered to himself, he sighed, and took his luggage back to his room.

I threw the spoils I got from the exhibition on the floor and turned on the air conditioner.

"call……"

Perhaps because Fengxiang had already plugged in the electric heater, the commander enjoyed a comfortable hot bath as soon as he came back.

It’s this temperature, the one that makes your body’s fatigue fly away.

The commander was soaking in the bathtub, in a daze again.

Akagi...

By the time I came to my senses, the water had turned cold.

"Go to sleep."

The commander dried his hair and prepared to go to bed.

According to the plan, there will be a meeting at 7:30 tomorrow.

Resource delivery is around ten o'clock.

The commander was thinking, and after confirming the procedure, he got into bed.

Sleepiness strikes.

I will start working tomorrow.

………………

The next day, 07:50.

Nanhai Port Area, conference room.

"From today on, the port area will return to work. I hope everyone can adjust their status and get back to work quickly."

The commander knocked on the blackboard in the conference room.

The above is the list of ship girls that will attack today.

"The flagship of today's first strike formation is Bismarck, Fuso, Crescent, Formidable, Umifuze, and Yudachi. These are the six."

“After the resources are delivered, strike immediately.”

"If there are no problems, all ship girls remain on standby until the resources are delivered. Disband."

The commander said solemnly.

Looking around, everyone was also in the working state.

But this is not enough.

Holidays tend to have inertia, especially long holidays of more than a week. For a period of time after they end, you will feel lack of energy.

What's worse, the bad state of "new hands" may occur.

For ordinary work, this only requires some adjustment, but this is a military area.

You must be able to get into work and really get into work mode.

After a period of time after the resources are delivered, this momentum of attack will be maintained, allowing all the ship girls to go on the field and attack once.

Okay, I'm going to work hard from today.

The commander made up his mind.

Ten minutes later, Nanhai Port Area Office.

“I don’t want to work…”

"Come on, Admiral!"

"..."

The commander gave up, and this determination lasted only ten minutes.

Explain why this is the case.

"What's this!"

The commander looked at the documents piled up to the ceiling on the table, grabbed his hair with both hands, and looked mad. "What is this!"

"The Outlying Islands and East China Seas have done a lot of deep-sea defense work for the South China Sea, and there are also documents on the protection of fishing boats and cruise ships."

Feng Xiang looked at the directory of the file and said, "This is probably it."

“…I want to resign.”

Commander is too difficult.

"Is that the first thing you're going to say on your first day back at work?"

Feng Xiang put his hands on his hips and spoke condescendingly.

"..."

He didn't want to, but he didn't fall asleep until three in the morning yesterday.

Then get up at six, have breakfast and have a meeting.

"Then what else can I say?"

The commander sighed.

Having said that, work still needs to be done.
