Even in the world of Kancolle, I want to drive a robot!

"That's it..."

Standing up from the bed, Xia Bai covered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "You guys go out first, I'll be alone for a while."

Hearing this, RX-03 obviously wanted to say something, but Zhenhai stopped him and gave him a look, and finally he walked out of the room silently.

"If there is a next time, I will kill you directly... Don't test my patience."

Just as Fan Yisena walked out of the room, Xia Bai's voice came again, causing her body to shiver a few times. She turned around with a flattering smile, quickened her pace and left.

As for Zhenhai, he followed Xia Bai's previous orders very well and stood guard at the door with Plymouth.

Only when the door of the infirmary was closed did Xia Bai slowly breathe a sigh of relief, lie back on the pillow and look at the ceiling.

Ultimately, he rejected the advice of freedom and law.

There is only a possibility of risk in going back, but compared to Zero's life, that possibility is worth Xia Bai's gamble. Even if something goes wrong along the way, he is confident that he can avoid all risks.

But for some reason, when he was making the choice, humans appeared in his mind, Douglas, Kressa, Arnold... and even the soldier he had met at the memorial.

Xia Bai thought he was a selfish person, but when it came to making a real choice, he couldn't be cruel.

More importantly, time travel and personality reset are essentially the same, both are starting over, the former on a large scale and the latter on a small scale.

On the surface it is a choice, but in reality it is a questioning of him by freedom and the law. Choosing to go back in time is equivalent to Xia Bai denying everything about himself.

No matter how many excuses you make, they will become pale and collapse at the slightest touch.

"I didn't expect that I was actually a hidden Asashi... Tsk, let's wait until Zero wakes up."

"Gentle? You are indeed that kind of person, and you don't hide it."

Hearing the familiar voice, Xia Bai subconsciously retorted: "No way, Ajax and the others all said I was an idiot, Wenrou and I are not..."

Xia Bai stopped talking, turned his head and saw a heroic and slightly cold face, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

After staring at each other for a while, Xia Bai gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you here, Kaohsiung? Didn't I tell you all to get out?"

Kaohsiung lifted the quilt, revealing his body wrapped in gauze, and pointed to his hung legs, saying calmly, "As you can see, I'm injured."

"Also, I am not Kaohsiung in this world. It seems you have made a mistake again."

"..."

To this day, Xia Bai still cannot distinguish Kaohsiung and Kaohsiung META from their appearance, especially after they shared the same wardrobe.

The white slim-fitting navy suit, the pleated skirt, the tights, the high ponytail, plus the identical looks and 90% similar mental fluctuations, only a ghost can tell them apart.

Complaining about why Kaohsiung gave the wardrobe to the other party, Xia Bai analyzed calmly: "So, the person beaten by Van Isena was not Kaohsiung, but you?"

"That's right. In fact, Atago wasn't injured. Everything you said you saw was just an act."

Touching his chin, Xia Bai said in a daze: "So... I wronged Fan Yisena?"

He had originally planned to teach Van Isena a lesson later, but now it seems that his own ship girl was fine and only Kaohsiung META was beaten.

Seeing Xia Bai's expression, Hei Kaohsiung seemed to understand his thoughts. His face darkened and he said angrily: "The Rebirth Torch is a subordinate organization of the Red Axis. Theoretically speaking, you are now our actual leader."

The Torch of Rebirth is an organization created by Helena META with only one goal, to kill the god of the Embers, White Night.

Of course, this organization currently still belongs to the Shell Company. Apart from the leader Helena META, the only subordinates are the META ship girls who were forced to surrender in the Battle of Butterfly Sea Dream Flower. Even the name "Torch of Rebirth" was only decided a few days ago.

Moreover, the Black Fuso sisters did not intend to get along with Black Helena. The priestesses only serve the "gods". Who are you, Helena? You are just commanding the battlefield.

Now the two of them are fighting fiercely with the genuine Fusoyama Castle, and have formed a group of royal guards with other Sakura priestesses to fight against the royal maiden corps.

By the way, Shinano is their leader.

The loss of Black Fuso and Black Mountain City is not terrible, the most important thing is that the Rebirth Torch is also missing Black Kaohsiung.

Because of Atago's existence, this former battlefield commander plans to stay in the port area for a while, and now he is just a figurehead in the Torch of Rebirth.

It was because of the extreme shortage of manpower that Helena META asked RX-03 to act as a lobbyist and let Lavanissena and her Annihilation Ring enter the trap.

Otherwise, with their current strength, they would have no chance of destroying Bai Ye. Before they could even get close to Carcassonne, they were surrounded by the army of the Black Enterprise.

Chapter 94: The Leg-Removing King

Men are fickle.

When Hei Gaoxiong took out the Rebirth Torch to prove that he was one of them, Xia Bai immediately gave up the idea of ​​letting Fan Yisena go, and said in unison: "It's time to teach Fan Yisena a lesson, otherwise she won't know who she has offended."

"Kaohsiung·META How many legs do you want? I'll send them to you tonight... To be honest, I've been in the martial arts world for so many years and I have a nickname called 'Sith Leg Remover'."

"The legs I'm eyeing aren't intact... Wait, what do you mean by that look? Don't move when your legs are hung up."

Hei Gaoxiong held back the pain and put his hanging leg into the tightly covered quilt, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

I almost forgot that the girl on the next bed is a hopeless foot and leg fetishist.

If the other party wanted to do something to my legs, he would succeed in my current state.

Seeing Hei Kaohsiung's face full of relief, Xia Bai's mouth twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but yelled: "No way, you are even on guard against gentlemen."

"Ah."

Hei Gaoxiong snorted coldly and said, "A gentleman would not desire other people's feet."

Xia Bai also imitated Hei Gaoxiong and snorted, "A gentleman judges deeds rather than intentions, and it seems that I have never had any desire for you... Don't think too highly of yourself, woman."

"In my opinion, you are far inferior to Kaohsiung."

With her eyebrows furrowed, a look of desolation appeared on Hei Kaohsiung's pretty face, and she lowered her head and whispered, "You're right... I'm really not as good as Kaohsiung."

"I am incompetent. When the Sakura Empire was destroyed, I could only cry in secret, powerless to stop it. The same was true when Atago died in front of me."

"You call yourself a warrior, but you don't practice the warrior's creed. You call yourself loyal, but you didn't help Nagato-sama when his life was in danger."

"Even after joining Ember, I was abandoned by Bai Ye and lost to you... My whole life has been synonymous with failure."

Although Hei Kaohsiung appeared calm when she said this, Xia Bai still felt a deep sadness from her.

He didn't quite understand what happened in that world, he only knew it was a tragedy. Countless misunderstandings formed a vortex of sadness that spread from Xia Bai to every life in the world.

Eventually it evolved into inevitable destruction.

Lifting the quilt, Xia Bai slowly walked to Hei Kaohsiung's bedside and sat down, saying, "Failure is inevitable. It is something that every life will experience."

"Even I have experienced failure and almost lost everything I had. If it weren't for Zero, I might have died a long time ago."

"And now, Zero is going through what I went through back then, and this time, I don't have the ability to save her like she saved me."

"Regret, anger, sadness...what's the use of these emotions after crying? What's lost cannot be brought back."

"But I won't give up because my life isn't over yet. I can't help her now because I'm too weak. As long as I continue to get stronger, Zero will come back one day."

"Similarly, your life isn't over yet, so it's too early to call it a failure."

Looking at Xia Bai's gentle and confident face, Hei Kaohsiung was stunned.

After a long while, she finally came to her senses and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Maybe, this is not over yet, and it's too early to fail."

Everyone can say nice things, but in Hei Kaohsiung, Xia Bai is the only one who has ever seen someone like this, using his own failure as an example to comfort others.

The key point is that she really thinks Xia Bai is a bigger failure than herself.

You are so sad about your past failures that you need others to counsel you... Haha, Kaohsiung, you are really going backwards as you get older.

The gloom and coldness that had been lingering around him dissipated a lot. Hei Gaoxiong rarely smiled and teased, "Have you always used this method to capture ship girls? I have to say, you are quite good at it."

Xia Bai: “…”

I tried to comfort you with good intentions, but not only did you not feel grateful, you even used this to tease me, right?

How could Xia Bai tolerate such a bad temper? He immediately rolled up his sleeves, intending to teach Hei Kaohsiung a lesson, but when he saw the other party's smiling face, he silently put his sleeves down.

Forget it, this child has suffered enough, I should just give her more leeway.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai followed what Hei Gaoxiong said: "That should be the case. My first ship girl Sirius gradually became addicted to my 'invincible' Yasashi."

"You don't know, my situation at that time was similar to that of 'White Night', but I was stronger than him. I killed everyone in Port William with the Awesome Glory, but was ambushed by Tempalans later..."

Recalling the scene at that time, Xia Bai suddenly felt that he was a mentally handicapped person who could not read the air. When Tianpalans asked him his age, he actually said half a year old.

I almost killed the fearsome and the glorious. Luckily, New Jersey arrived in time... No, I haven't settled the score with Tempalans yet. I have to write it down in my little notebook.

Under Hei Gaoxiong's puzzled gaze, Xia Bai took out the book of hatred and wrote something on it stroke by stroke. At the same time, he continued to talk, "You know Tian Palans, the barefoot arbitrator who can tamper with the rules."

"You may not believe it, but she almost killed me at that time. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to survive..."

"In a flash, I grabbed Sirius's chest, threw her to the ground, and hit her abdomen madly. Sirius was not easy to deal with either, and bit my shoulder with his silver teeth..."

"Warspite asked me to help Sirius, but what else could I do? I could only harass her every day to stop her from thinking about those things. As a result, I went in one time and saw her naked."

"That was the first time I really saw a girl's body, and Sirius was super beautiful, especially her pair of white jade-like feet... Ah, you are not interested in these, so I will skip it for now..."

When I get older, I like to reminisce about the glorious past.

Although Xia Bai is not very old now, he still likes to recall these interesting things, especially telling them to Hei Kaohsiung, a guy who knows nothing, with exaggeration, and then looking at the other person's shocked expression.

This is really fun.

Xia Bai decided that if he had the chance, he would publish an autobiography to let everyone know his deeds. It didn't make sense that Dafeng could be a famous love writer, but he couldn't, right?

He is a savior, and there must be many people who want to know what kind of person he is and how noble his character is through his autobiography.

Just like that, one is willing to speak and the other is willing to listen, and time passes slowly.

Chapter 95: Demon City Licking Dog

When night falls and the scenery outside the window darkens.

Zhenhai outside the door finally couldn't bear it anymore and pushed the door open.

Seeing Hei Gaoxiong and Xia Bai sitting on the same bed, talking happily, Liu Liu raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically: "Is this what you mean by being alone and quiet? Commander..."

At this time, Xia Bai had already talked about the time he was kidnapped and taken to Sakura Empire. Seeing Zhenhai's unfriendly look, he quickly explained: "I didn't know Kaohsiung META was in the infirmary. After the quiet time, we had nothing to do and started chatting..."

Zhenhai said: "Look at the time now, didn't you say you were going to Iris?"

Turning his head to look at the sky which had already turned completely dark, Xia Bai said silently: "Oh, yeah, I had forgotten... It's so late, why don't you just not go?"

"Commander, it's you who are going, not me. You're asking me now."

Zhenhai was almost laughing out of anger. It was like sending people away just to build relationships with Hei Kaohsiung, right? He must have been blind to have accepted such an idiot as his commander.

With a self-deprecating smile, Zhenhai turned and left the infirmary.

Xia Bai quickly asked, "Zhenhai, where are you going?"

"Go outside, out of sight, out of mind."

Hearing this, Xia Bai showed an apologetic expression to Hei Kaohsiung and said, "Let's talk about it when there's a chance. Zhen Hai seems to be jealous."

Looking at Xia Bai with interest, Hei Gaoxiong lay back on the bed and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you should go chase Miss Zhenhai first."

When it comes to the couple's affairs, you'd better not be a light bulb. Although Xia Bai's story is interesting, it doesn't hurt to listen to it next time.

No matter how unromantic Xia Bai was, he could see that Zhenhai was having a bad temper. He nodded immediately and strode out of the room.

However, Zhenhai outside the door was not as jealous as he had imagined. He was leaning against the wall with his arms folded, chatting and laughing with Plymouth.

"Zhenhai, I..."

Seeing Xia Bai, Zhen Hai's face suddenly turned cold, and he said lightly: "Why, the commander is not chatting with Miss Kaohsiung META?"

"Let's stop chatting, let's go back to the castle tower and rest."

Shaking his head, Xia Bai shamelessly held Zhen Hai's hand and whispered something in her ear.

With a blush on his face, Zhenhai said with a wandering look, "No, this is too embarrassing."

Hearing a hint of hesitation from Zhenhai's words, Xia Bai snickered and said, "Really? If you miss it, you'll never get it again. I'm a very busy man."

"Well..."

Zhenhai's pretty face twisted into a ball. After thinking for a moment, his emotions overcame his reason. He nodded slightly and said, "I really can't stand it, Commander... I'll forgive you this time. When are we leaving?"

"Right now."

Looking at Plymouth beside him with a guilty conscience, Zhenhai hesitated and said, "It's not good to abandon Plymouth..."

Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Bai said indifferently: "Then take her with you. Maybe this will be an opportunity for her to regain her emotions."

"Go together? I feel like you're up to something bad, Commander..."

"You think too much. I'm not interested in Plymouth for now."

"Plymouth is so beautiful, I don't believe the commander won't be attracted to her."
