The purpose is... to restrain the ship girl next to the opponent.
Chapter 125 True and False
"The Maritime Administration is committed to protecting Barton Bryan, so we hope that White Eagle will not intervene in this matter."
"Haha~ We White Eagles have long been dissatisfied with the army of Takors. Now that you want to settle accounts with them, we are so happy that we can't wait to stop you. How can we stop you?"
After a few dry laughs, St. Louis made up his mind to go back and tell the company about the Son of Prometheus coming to Takors, and ask them to stop immediately and give up that overly idealistic and unrealistic idea.
Closing the book in his hand, RX-16 looked up at St. Louis, thinking about something.
He suddenly felt that the other party's mental fluctuations were a bit strange, and he probably hid some thoughts from him, so he asked tentatively: "Do you have any other questions? Since we are still allies, I can answer them for you."
St. Louis, who was a little nervous when being stared at by RX-16, smiled calmly and said, "I appreciate your kindness. I am just a little curious about the purpose of your coming to Takers. That's all."
"Is that so..." With a smile on his face, RX-16 put his hands behind his head and said, pretending not to care, "In fact, the relationship between us, the Sons of Prometheus, and Azur Lane is more than just an alliance with the Royal Family."
"My second brother is the commander of the Sakura Empire. So, our alliance should be closer, right?"
"Commander of the Sakura Empire!?"
With a cry of surprise, St. Louis stood up involuntarily, his eyes full of panic, and asked hurriedly: "Who is your second brother..."
Feeling St. Louis' mental fluctuations, RX-16 thought that the other party was indeed hiding something from him, and then pointed at Xia Bai who was lying unconscious on the sofa on the other side.
"Here, that's the one lying there. He's RX-02, our second brother, and the new commander of the Sakura Empire."
They all knew that the Sakura Empire camp had a commander. After all, Akashi had broadcast it live on the internal channel through the communication ring. But in White Eagle, except for a few people, most of the ship girls did not know that Xia Bai was the son of Prometheus.
No wonder the man looked more and more familiar the more I looked at him. It turned out that I had seen him in the live broadcast of Sakura Empire. However, he had changed a lot and was like two different people.
Biting his finger, St. Louis' eyes were uncertain, and finally a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he sat back on the sofa.
"I understand. In order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, I can reveal a little information to you."
"We, the White Eagles, have received benefits from the military and have sent people to New Covenant City to interrogate the shipgirls around Barton Bryan."
"I say this to avoid conflict between us. Please show mercy when the time comes."
St. Louis concealed a lot of things and only used transactions with the military to cover them up. After all, the actual truth was too horrifying, and she was not qualified to reveal it on her own initiative.
Shrugging his shoulders, RX-16 spread his hands and replied indifferently: "It is not up to me to decide whether to show mercy. You have to ask my second brother, second brother, are you awake?"
Suddenly, seeing that Xia Bai behind St. Louis had woken up and was walking towards him with a bad look on his face, RX-16 began to stutter and shrank towards RX-11.
Looking at the terrified St. Louis and then at the trembling RX-16, Xia Bai said coldly: "It's understandable that you knocked me out, after all, my mood was not right at the time, but elbowing me in the face directly was a bit too much."
Hearing this, RX-16 and RX-11 immediately pointed at the crew-cut 21 and shouted, "It was him. It was 21 who elbowed the second brother in the face. It has nothing to do with us."
I would rather die than let my friend die. Under Xia Bai's "tyranny", the fake brotherhood of the sons of Prometheus was undoubtedly revealed.
Seeing Xia Bai looking at him gloomily, CX-21 swallowed and said tremblingly: "Senior...You were in a dangerous situation at that time, so I..."
"Very good, CX-11, you are very good. Very good."
After saying yes three times in a row, Xia Bai showed a 'friendly' smile to CX-21, and then continued: "Now we have something important to do, I will come to settle accounts with you later... Don't think about running away, unless you can stay awake all the time, or I can let Shinano pull you into a dream."
Trembling like a little quail, CX-21 nodded vigorously and gave up the idea of escaping.
This situation made St. Louis even more uneasy. She had just witnessed how cruel Xia Bai was, but now it seemed that she was too naive.
Letting the long-missing Shinano pull his brother into the dream space is beyond description of the word "brutal". It is no wonder that he became the commander of the Sakura Empire with such violent means.
"You, what's your name?"
St. Louis, who was daydreaming, heard Xia Bai's question and stood up instinctively, straightened his body and spoke loudly.
"Brooklyn-class light cruiser - St. Louis, hull number CL-49, from the White Eagle of Azur Lane!"
Honolulu, who was sitting next to St. Louis, knew that Xia Bai was not asking her, but she stood up under the tremendous pressure and stammered, "Brooklyn-class light cruiser...Honolulu, hull number CL-48, also from White Eagle."
How to put it, both of them had a great sense of "justice". When their bodies suddenly stood up, Xia Bai felt a little dizzy. In order to avoid the birth of lust, he took a step back slightly and rubbed his ears.
"Keep your voice down, I didn't ask you to stand up..."
"Yes!" X2
After giving Xia Bai a military salute, the two of them sat back up straight. If the other ship girls on the White Eagle saw this prohibitory look, they would definitely not believe their eyes.
"I heard what you said just now, but I didn't expect White Eagle to get involved in this matter... Is this the company's intention, or is it a private job taken by someone else?"
It would be fine if it was a private job taken by someone from White Eagle alone, as that was just their own idea. Xia Bai would at most beat up the ship girl who took the private job, but if this was an order from the leader enterprise, then he would have to consider whether there was any conspiracy involved.
With a shudder in his heart, St. Louis smiled and said, "Of course this is a private job. We at White Eagle are a little short of money after stabilizing the Takors area. It has absolutely nothing to do with the company."
Hearing St. Louis' answer, Xia Bai nodded, looked around, and frowned slightly when he found that the man was not there.
"Where are the Kresa people?"
Chapter 126 The Two Helenas
"Kressa and Helena went to the police station to take a statement. They should be back soon."
Shooting and murder are extremely serious incidents at any time, especially in Fulk City, which is the seat of the Maritime Administration. Of course, it must be investigated strictly.
Although St. Louis and Kresa had already revealed their identities to the belated arrival of the police, the process still had to be followed.
After thinking it through, Xia Bai didn't dwell on it and sat directly next to Honolulu, making the ship girl with beautiful red hair very restrained.
"Give me a Coke, please, with more ice."
"Well...we are a coffee shop here, there is no Coke..." Before St. Louis could finish her words, Xia Bai looked at her without emotion.
His body trembled a few times, and St. Louis quickly changed the topic and said, "Please wait, I will send it to you right away."
Seeing St. Louis quickly stand up and walk towards the bar, Xia Bai touched his chin and said puzzledly: "Am I that scary? Why does it feel like St. Louis is afraid of me..."
Don’t you know how terrible you are?!
After hearing Xia Bai's doubts, Honolulu, who was restrained in her body, shouted wildly in her heart. She could hardly bear the urge to escape, and even her breathing was a little difficult under the tremendous pressure.
"It's not scary, it's very scary. Second brother, you always have a stern face, which is really scary. You are also moody and you will start fighting if you say so."
Touching his face, Xia Bai replied with some embarrassment: "There is no other way. To maintain a calm mind, one must have no ripples in the heart. Having a stern face is not what I want..."
"Oh, I really want to find the guy who launched a mental attack on me and beat him up. I'm tired of feeling empty inside."
Sighing, Xia Bai turned and gave Honolulu a stiff 'friendly' smile.
"I'm sorry about what happened earlier. My mental state wasn't stable and I almost killed you."
"You don't have to apologize. We admitted our mistake."
Seeing Xia Bai trying hard to force a devilish smile at him, Honolulu immediately wanted to stand up and bow, but was held down by the other party by the shoulder.
"I really don't understand why you guys reacted so strongly. I'm usually very kind and have a good temper. If you don't believe me, you can ask RX-16 and the others."
Seeing RX-16 and RX-11 nodding vigorously on the sofa opposite, Honolulu's tense body relaxed a little, and then he said in an inaudible voice: "I was too nervous, I'm... sorry."
"It's okay to relax a little more. I'm in a good mood right now."
"Let's talk. I'm very interested in the internal situation of White Eagle, such as what kind of person Enterprise is."
Hearing this, Honolulu clenched her hands on her thighs and said tremblingly: "Everyone in White Eagle is very cheerful. Baltimore and Cleveland often play sports together. Saratoga likes to play pranks. Essex takes business as her goal..."
"She is gentle and strong, and can handle everything. She once told us that her wish is to live an honest and sincere life. She is often punished by the Kitchen Goddess for eating energy bars."
"But I think the business world is boring. There are almost no hobbies or interests. All day long I either go out on a mission or stay in the office processing documents."
Honolulu revealed everything he knew tremblingly. Fearing that Xia Bai would be dissatisfied, he quietly looked up at him and then quickly looked away.
Then he whispered: "Can I ask you why you know Helena... If you don't want to answer, just pretend I never asked..."
Not only Honolulu was curious, but RX-16 and the others also pricked up their ears. When they were helpless against Xia Bai, it was Helena who made the other party lose his mind. And from their conversation, Xia Bai also showed that he knew Helena very well.
Is it possible that there is something fishy going on between these two people without their knowledge?
With such gossip in mind, RX-16 also asked, "Yes, second brother, why do you know Helena from White Eagle? Obviously, we have no intersection."
"The one I know is not Helena from White Eagle. Even though they look exactly the same, they are definitely not the same person. After all, that guy is not that weak..."
As if he didn't want to explain more on this issue, Xia Bai said something in a bad mood and then kept silent, making several people feel very uncomfortable, as if they were being scratched by a cat.
The Riddler, get the hell out of Fulk City!
At this time, St. Louis came over with a cup of Coke and placed it in front of Xia Bai, and asked curiously: "She looks exactly like Helena? Is she also a Brooks-class ship girl?"
Looking up and glancing at St. Louis, Xia Bai picked up the Coke, said thank you, and then stopped talking, with no intention of answering the other party at all.
Given St. Louis's personality, if someone looked down on her, even if she wasn't angry, she would still feel a little dissatisfied and wouldn't look at the other person well.
But when it came to Xia Bai, especially when the other party said "thank you", St. Louis actually felt flattered and immediately put on a smile.
"You're welcome. Just consider it as an apology."
Then St. Louis sat down next to Honolulu again and said hesitantly, "Can't you really tell me about the person who looks like Helena?"
Putting down the Coke in his hand, Xia Bai looked at the curious expressions on the faces of several people and said, "Do you really want to know?"
"Yeah, second brother, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us who it is."
"Oh, look at how impatient you are, like a woman, full of gossip... I'll tell you about it, it's Helena MATE."
Hearing this, the three Sons of Prometheus suddenly realized that Helena MATE and the others had heard from RX-03 that she was a ship girl who came here from another world and was closely related to the mysterious organization "Ember".
St. Louis and Honolulu were completely confused. Who was Helena MATE? They had never heard of this person in Azur Lane. It was like saying nothing.
Resisting the urge to continue asking, St. Louis said nonchalantly, "So that's how it is. Same name, same appearance, are there any connections between the two of them?"
"Contact..."
St. Louis's joke made Xia Bai fall into deep thought. Helena of White Eagle and Helena MATE are not just similar. Apart from their appearance, they also have the same melancholy temperament.
However, Helena MATE is more unpredictable and stronger in comparison, just like Helena of White Eagle after she has gone through a series of great changes.
For some reason, Xia Bai suddenly began to doubt what Helena MATE said. Did she really come from another world?
Chapter 127: In? Do you have a car?
Recalling the false picture that the other party showed him, Xia Bai became more and more suspicious of Helena MATE's origins. The picture showed groups of mechas and spires similar to the Solomon Line of Defense, coupled with the other party's suggestive words.
"This... this is what has happened in my world, and this is also the reality of what is about to happen in this world... which is the future."
In an instant, an extremely shocking guess slowly emerged in Xia Bai's mind, making his expression very ugly. Shinano had never told him about this kind of thing.
Seeing Xia Bai's face clouded after hearing her joke, St. Louis' heart was suddenly filled with uneasiness. She wondered if she had said something wrong again.
He immediately pulled Honolulu to the sofa, looking like he was pitiful and asked her not to hit him.
Fortunately, Xia Bai quickly made up his mind and his face became cold again, which made St. Louis breathe a sigh of relief.
"St. Louis, please contact Helena and ask why they haven't come back yet. Is there something wrong?"
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Without any hesitation, St. Louis immediately carried out the other party's orders like Xia Bai's subordinate.
She was obviously the White Eagle ship girl, but she listened to the other party so much. What was going on? She herself didn't know. Anyway, when she heard Xia Bai speak, her body moved on its own.
Xia Bai left such a deep impression on her and Huo Lununu that in such a short contact, they instinctively began to obey each other.
"Helena said she's already at the door of the store...do you have anything else to say?"
Hearing St. Louis's cautious answer, Xia Bai immediately stood up, walked quickly to the door, and said to Helena who was about to come in, "Have you picked up a stone with a special material recently? It's probably black."
"Ah?" Seeing Xia Bai suddenly appear in front of her, Helena covered her mouth and took a step back, then replied weakly, "There is such a stone, but it was given to me by someone else."
"How do you know that?"
Was it a gift? Wasn't it picked up?
Confused about Helena's answer, Xia Bai grabbed her hands and asked anxiously, "Who gave it to you, and where is the stone?"
"It hurts..."
With tears in her delicate eyes, Helena pursed her lips slightly.
The other party's cry of pain like a small animal made Xia Bai quickly let go of his hand and said expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, I was impatient...but this matter is really important."
Helena rubbed her red little hands, wiped the tears from her eyes, and shook her head: "I don't know who gave it to me. The person was wearing a robe when he gave me the stone."
"I felt strangely familiar with that person, so I accepted it... Now the stone is in my room."
It's even more complicated. If Helena MATE came back from the future, then the stone Helena got should have been picked up by herself, rather than given to her by a mysterious person she is familiar with.
In other words, Helena MATE is a ship girl from another world, and the stone Helena has now is given by the people of "Ashes" in order to let the Siren clean up this world.
