I, Azure Commander!

"Of course I won't lie to you. Look, did I promise you this before?"

Dido was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that she seemed to have said the words more than once before, but the master never responded at that time, so he left and disappeared, leaving the poor maid without a backbone, and even nearly collapsed for a time. She thought about jumping into the sea and drowning herself more than once...

Now that I think about it, it’s a good thing that I was stopped by my companions in the harbor, otherwise, I would never see my master again.

The humble girl carefully rubbed her head against the palm of her master's hand, and slowly some light appeared in her sad and timid eyes.

Even now, her buttocks still felt a slightly burning and embarrassing pain, forcing her to close her legs and twist her small white toes restlessly in her stockings.

"By the way, Master, um... Dido has another request."

Although she was just a lowly maid of the first rank and had no right to ask her master to do anything, Dido wanted to give it a try anyway.

"what's up?"

"It's... about that kid."

Dido pointed at Charybdis, who had been standing aside and listening for a long time but had not dared to interrupt and say a word. "She is Dido's sister. She also wants to join the port and be the master's maid to serve the master. Is that okay?"

Chapter 28 I am a useless person and I am proud of it

"She is Dido's sister, and she also wants to join the harbor and be the master's maid, serving the master. Is that okay?"

When hearing this, Lin Xiao's expression was a little complicated.

He looked up at the ship girl named Charybdis, who was also looking uneasy and nervous at this moment, with her fists clenched tightly, her face full of pitiful feelings, and her eyes full of hope and yearning.

How could this happen? Wasn't this the first time he had seen this kid? Wasn't this the first time they had met?

Even though I had a vague idea of ​​what was going on when I saw her, and I also thought that Dido would probably talk to me about this matter later, I never expected it to unfold like this.

In the past, it was not uncommon for a free ship girl to be rescued by her own ship girl and join the port area. Even so, there were quite a few cases. But even so, what was the situation at that time? After all, she was a free ship girl. Even if she was fooled by her own ship girl and was full of yearning for the port area, she was still a free ship girl after all, and she still had to go through the process, such as invitations.

If not, it means that you have known each other for a while and understand each other relatively well, so things will come naturally.

But in a case like Charybdis, who almost begged to join the port area when they first met...that was indeed the first time I met him.

Even though he was so surprised and stunned that he couldn't speak for a moment, he couldn't just leave this girl alone. There were tears in her eyes and she would start to cry if he left her alone for a while.

Then he came back to his senses, organized his words a little, and said, "If you want to join the port area... the port area certainly welcomes free ship girls to join. After all, you are also Dido's sister."

Charybdis' face suddenly showed a look of relief, and then he clasped his hands together, looking moved as if he was praying.

"Thank you, Master. From now on, as your maid, I will work hard!"

It was a very pleasant voice, soft yet pleasant to the ear, and as a result, the number of maids in the house was increased by one.

By the way, the number of maids around me has suddenly increased from two to five... I feel more comfortable now.

And among them, Sirius is also Dido's sister, so Dido, Sirius and Charybdis are three sisters, and Sheffield and Newcastle are also sisters.

Sister maids, it sounds like a good feeling, but also a bit bad...

It's weird, right? A maid alone doesn't seem to be a big deal, but a maid sister will give people a strange feeling out of nowhere. If it's an elf or a succubus, the astringency will be doubled again, and you will instantly think of the plots of various anime.

After explaining all this to the girls, Lin Xiao realized that he was a little hungry. He looked at the time and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. It was obviously past dinner time.

The signing event lasted longer than expected. Apart from eating some bread and snacks brought by the KanColles during the break, Lin Xiao hadn't eaten since breakfast.

Although he wasn't that hungry, it was always uncomfortable with an empty stomach. The ship girls who accompanied him to the autograph session, including Aurora and the others who went to the autograph session to check on the situation, had not eaten lunch yet. They should at least eat something to fill their stomachs.

In order not to affect dinner, it seemed a bad idea to go directly to the restaurant. Lin Xiao thought for a moment and said, "There should be a snack shop nearby, right? Let's go buy some hot snacks and eat a little to fill our stomachs. Then, in the evening, Haitian will help everyone prepare a big meal."

Haitian nodded naturally. During the communication just now, Lin Xiao naturally would not forget to introduce the new ship girls who joined the port to Dido Aurora and the others.

"Okay, then everyone put on your shoes and get ready to go out."

Aurora stood up while talking, but Lin Xiao waved his hand and said, "It's just to buy some snacks. There's no need for so many people. Just anyone can go with me. It's not convenient if there are too many people. Let's continue to rest. We've all been very tired today."

"Well, since the commander said so..."

Sirius on the side seemed to be hesitant to talk, and after thinking for a while, he felt that if he said something like "The master is working hard too... How can I let the master do such a thing?" or if he said he wanted to buy snacks by himself, he probably would not succeed.

After all, it was Clumsy Sirius...and a maid's job was to serve her master, not to question her master's decisions.

As for who will accompany the master... although Sirius certainly wants to go himself, but after a look and a quick exchange with Dido, it is better to give the opportunity to the newcomer.

"Charybdis, you will accompany your master. You are familiar with the area, right?"

So, Sirius spoke.

"Eh? Me...me?"

Charybdis pointed at himself, looking a little nervous, and then responded with joy: "Okay, I will definitely serve my master well!"

Lin Xiao didn't say anything. He didn't care who accompanied him. It didn't matter who accompanied him. He was just going out to buy some snacks.

However, when he reached the door and was about to bend down to change his shoes, he saw the new maid, Miss Charybdis, suddenly walk over quickly, then squat down, put the shoes in front of him, then hold his ankle with one hand, and slowly pull the slippers aside with the other hand, and then carefully put on the shoes he was going to wear to go out.

——Because the incident happened so suddenly, it even scared him a little. It was not until this time that Lin Xiao realized that the maid was helping him change his shoes.

If even such things have to be entrusted to the maid, isn't this kind of life too extravagant and decadent?

How to say it... It seemed a little strange, but this thought only existed in Lin Xiao's mind for a moment.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Sheffield and Sirius have done the same thing before, but they don't always have the opportunity, nor are they always free. There are few maids in the house, so there is relatively more work and it is busier, but I think this is also part of the job for the maids.

If she had to say that it wasn't necessary or that she wasn't used to it... if it was Sheffield or Newcastle, Lin Xiao would of course speak up, but the maid in front of her was a Dido-level maid. Just something of this magnitude would be enough to make them tearful and look like abandoned puppies, right?

So forget it, and let the beautiful maid help him change his shoes. Lin Xiao then took her out the door. Charybdis followed behind him, about half a body length behind. The distance was so close that even in the quiet time, he could vaguely hear the child's nervous heartbeat.

——Or should I say the sound of the power engine? It's so weird when I think about it...

"Charybdis, you know where the nearby snack street is, right?"

"Yes, Master, please come this way."

Although she was nervous, Charybdis obviously had some skills as a royal maid, and she probably had some strange experiences like training and instruction from Dido, so she didn't stumble over her words, and overall she was considered to be a relatively optimistic and generous girl in Dido's class.

Walking on the street with a maid is naturally a very conspicuous thing. The rate of turning heads on the street is off the charts, especially when it is such a beautiful British-style maid. Many young people are shocked and envious when they see her, and then secretly sigh that it is good to be rich, and subconsciously regard Lin Xiao as a young master of a wealthy family.

There is nothing wrong with this. If they knew that Charybdis was actually the ship girl and Lin Xiao was the commander, it would only cause a bigger sensation.

I went to buy a lot of snacks with Charybdis, carrying two large paper bags, a small portion of which were snacks from District E, mainly fish and chips, and mainly specialty snacks from other areas where there are restaurants.

There were two big paper bags. Even though there were a lot of things in them, they were just snacks and not very many kinds. Although Lin Xiao felt that there was nothing wrong with him carrying them, Charybdis obviously disagreed. The master and the maid were shopping together. The master was carrying two big bags, while the maid had nothing in her hands... How could this be possible?

If this is true, then it must be the maid's dereliction of duty and an unsatisfactory performance. She will definitely be criticized by her sisters and seniors when she returns.

Lin Xiao has never cared much about this kind of thing. Since Charybdis said so, he didn't insist on being a male chauvinist and handed the bag in his hand to her generously.

"Speaking of which, how did Charybdis meet Dido and the others?"

On the way back, Lin Xiao also started talking to the new maid.

As a commander, you always have to care about the ship girls at home, let alone the newcomers who have just joined the port.

"When Charybdis was just born, he saw Sister Dido and everyone else."

"on the sea?"

"Um……"

So it turned out that it was fished out. Most likely, they sank the Siren during an attack, and were just about to leave to collect their reward when they saw a new ship girl suddenly appear on the sea.

Since it was a ship that was salvaged by the ship girls in the port area, Charybdis would naturally be considered as the ship girl of their own port area, and there was no problem with that.

We were chatting until we got home and knocked on the door. Soon someone came to the door. I looked down and saw it was Newcastle.

This time Charybdis was too busy. Although she wanted to put down the things in her hands and help her master change her shoes, Newcastle, as the former head maid, naturally finished the job quickly and beautifully.

Lin Xiao still had that feeling, a little bit weird, mainly because he wasn't used to it. But this kind of thing, he would get used to it slowly, right?

I shared snacks with the ship girls who didn't have lunch, and ate a little to fill my stomach. After being busy for most of the day, I was somewhat tired, so I ate a little more. My eyelids slowly drooped and I felt sleepy.

Take a short nap, get up and go back...

Thinking so, Lin Xiao wanted to lean towards the sofa, but his head was caught by a pair of slender hands. Dido smiled and sat beside him, placing her master's head on her soft thighs.

Lin Xiao was not polite either. He was used to this and felt quite at ease with it. He moved his head and found a comfortable position. He even put his arms around the slender waist of the girl in front of him without any hesitation and slowly closed his eyes.

The commander fell asleep, and the whole house suddenly became quiet. The children were told not to make any noise, and the older girls began to pack their things quietly. They put things that could fit in the trunk of the car, and threw away things that couldn't fit. They also took care of everything that needed to be dealt with. Haitian also called an extra car to come over in case there wasn't enough space...

When Lin Xiao opened his eyes again, it was already five o'clock in the evening.

The girl in front of him was still sitting quietly on the sofa, looking at him happily. The soft feeling under his head made him not want to get up for a moment.

"Master, you are awake..."

However, I still have to get up. It’s getting late, so I have to take the ship girls back early. Haitian still has to cook dinner.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

"No, that's not the case... It's an honor for Dido to serve the master."

The maids always say the same thing, and Lin Xiao doesn't refute it. Let them say what they want, and he should say what he wants. These are two different things and have nothing to do with each other.

I sat up and stretched, only to find that my home had changed a lot.

"Ah, Commander, are you awake?"

"Well, have you packed up everything at home?"

"Everything is ready. I was just about to come over to wake you up."

Aurora said this, but in fact, if he really hadn't woken up yet, she probably wouldn't have the heart to wake him up. After all, the commander did so much work... whether it was writing novels, working hard to improve his military rank, or doing so much publicity and holding book signings, making himself so tired, all for the purpose of contacting them, for the purpose of getting them back.

If I think about it this way, my heart will be warm and touched. Looking at the commander's sleeping face, there is no way I can bear to wake him up like this, right?

"That's good. It's getting late. Let's go back first?"

"it is good."

Aurora nodded, and then began to call people from each room. Soon the ship girls came to the living room and went out and got into the car one after another. It seemed that everything had been arranged before. When Lin Xiao went out for the last time, Dido and Charybdis were standing by the car door, one on the left and one on the right, waiting for him to get in.

After getting in the car, the pair of sisters sat on his left and right. It felt like if they continued like this, they would float away...

But logically speaking, this cannot be blamed on him. There are so many maids in the port area, and those gentle and virtuous ladies. No matter who it is, he will become a disabled person, right?

So if that's the case, why not just be content with being a useless person?

Chapter 29 Then Stay Tonight

He brought the girls back to their temporary residence, which was the building bought by Saint Aunt's company. The living floor was very spacious and could still accommodate a dozen more ship girls.

It was already late, and even though the ingredients were already prepared, Haitian still hurried into the kitchen and started preparing dinner.

After a comfortable nap in the afternoon, Lin Xiao didn't feel so tired anymore. He got off the elevator and stretched his body. Unusually, he didn't sit down on the sofa directly. Instead, he moved his body around. Then he turned his head and his eyes began to roll around, looking at the crowd. Finally, he set his sights and hugged a cute little girl. Then he sat on the sofa contentedly, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

As expected, I would feel uncomfortable if I didn’t hold a little girl in my arms while watching TV…

"Commander?!"

However, the child in his arms was a little frightened, or flattered. The cute purple-haired girl leaned on the commander with a red face, which made her even more adorable.

I never thought that I would be held in the commander's arms and sit on his lap like this.

This seemed a bit too exciting for Javelin, who had just reunited with the commander and still knew little about him.

In fact, not only her, but also the other ship girls who had just returned were shocked by the scene in front of them. They would agree to let the new maid accompany them to go shopping, would sleep on Dido's thighs for a good nap, and now they would hold their children at home and watch TV with them...

Is this really the elusive commander in their impression?

At this time, the ship girls who have returned to the port area for some time will quietly begin to talk about more exciting content with their long-lost companions.

For example, the commander now even sleeps with the ship girl... No, it doesn't mean sleeping at the same time. Although the commander's bedtime is indeed much earlier now, that's not what he means. It means that he and the ship girl sleep in the same bed.

Sometimes it’s a wedding ship, or there’s a chance with a cute child. Even if it’s not a wedding ship, it doesn’t matter. After all, it’s just sleeping with a soft child in your arms, and no one can say anything.

But what about adults?

That really is sleep in every sense of the word...

Such information was undoubtedly even more explosive, and instantly broke the existing cognition of these ship girls.

In the port area, there is actually a ship that can carry a commander? This is simply an incredible leap forward! It is a super development with epoch-making significance!

Maybe it was because the noise was too loud, even Lin Xiao could hear the occasional exclamation. Turning his head to take a quick look, he saw the girls at home chatting. There was nothing wrong with that, but he had no idea what they were talking about, nor did he really want to find out. It was quite interesting to watch cartoons with Javelin - of course, the main reason was that the child was cute enough, and it was super comfortable to hold in his arms, much more comfortable than hugging a pillow.

This kind of leisure continued until Haitian prepared a big meal with the help of several ship girls. Lin Xiao turned off the TV, took Javelin's little hand and took her to wash her hands, then came to the restaurant and sat down.

At this time, the table was already filled with a wide variety of delicious food, and from time to time, ship girls would come out with plates in their hands. This was naturally the working time for the maids. Except for Sirius who had been standing beside Lin Xiao, Dido, Sheffield and others were now helping to serve the dishes. Such simple work was just the basics of the basics for the maids.

The lovely maids were both very good-looking and the food in front of them was particularly tempting. When all the dishes were served, the chef came out while untying his apron, and this warm dinner officially began.

It was different from the previous few nights. At that time, I had important things to do. Although the food was delicious, I still didn't feel that relaxed. There were not many people, so the dishes were relatively not that rich, and the liveliness was much less than today.

More than a dozen ship girls were found in one go. At least at this moment, Lin Xiao felt relieved. He was quite satisfied with the result this time and he was more confident in finding all the royal ship girls.
