I, Azure Commander!

"However, Commander, since this is a sports meet, shouldn't the winners get some rewards?"

Noshiro then suggested.

"This is natural."

Lin Xiao nodded in affirmation. Even if there were no rewards, it would be fun for everyone to play together. But if there were rewards, everyone's enthusiasm for the activity would surely be higher, and naturally more people would participate in the swimming competition.

"So, what rewards should we set?"

Noshiro's eyes seemed to become a little strange, but Lin Xiao, who was thinking about the swimsuit at the moment, obviously did not notice this subtle change, and said without thinking: "What else could it be? Get ready, uh..."

He suddenly paused, as if he had taken things for granted. Yes, what gift should I prepare?

Food, snacks?

The children were of course ecstatic, but the older girls mostly disdained it, except for a certain royal foodie...

Such beautiful clothes or beautiful jewelry?

No, unless they are giving rings as gifts, the ship girls probably won't be very interested in it. After all, even if they want to buy clothes or something, they can just ask for money directly. The port itself is not short of money, and it is even more impossible for them to withhold money for buying clothes.

As for jewelry... the same thing applies, unless it's a ring, the ship girls are not interested in it.

So what should be rewarded?

Lin Xiao was a little confused and couldn't think of any good ideas for a while.

"Nodai, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Yes, of course."

Lin Xiao's first and true wife, the biggest winner in the port area, and perhaps the secretary ship who received the most from the commander, said with a smile: "Commander, do you still remember the red envelopes you gave to the children during the Spring Festival?"

"I do remember it, but how come..."

Lin Xiao realized something was wrong as soon as he finished speaking, because he roughly knew what was going on.

They are "Commander Kiss Ticket", "Commander Hug Ticket" and "Commander Sleeping Ticket"!

Good man, waiting for him here?

Could it be that these guys made these dumplings just for this little bit of vinegar?

Based on Lin Xiao’s understanding of them...it’s very likely!

But he had already agreed to host the sports meeting, and he had even been forced to spread the news just now... No, was this also a trap for him?

Nengdai, ah Nengdai, you with thick eyebrows and big eyes, it turns out you also like to stir up trouble?

My dear wife was not like this before! Damn it, who led my wife astray?

The trap has been dug and designed layer by layer. Although Lin Xiao could be a little tougher and simply disagree with setting up such a reward, if so, it would dampen everyone's interest. After all, the reason why the ship girls are looking forward to the sports meeting so much... this activity they specially discussed is just for those few small pieces of paper.

There was no reason to refuse, so Lin Xiao finally agreed to Noshiro's suggestion, but it was conditional...

Lin Xiao will absolutely not give in on this condition, no matter who tries!

That is - the specific reward will be determined by him.

Of course, the rewards he set wouldn't be too outrageous, nor would he give out a bunch of "consolation prizes" like he was trying to coax a child. However, when it comes to setting rewards for different competitions, Lin Xiao has some preferences - for example, the swimsuit... ahem, the rewards for swimming competitions should be much more generous than those for other types of competitions...

Chapter 2 Lost the game, won life

Although he quickly realized that he felt a little bit cheated, Lin Xiao still readily agreed to the suggestion of the ship girls and started this fun sports meeting in the port area.

Both adults and children were very excited to hear the news of this sports meeting.

After all, although life in the port area is comfortable and peaceful, it is still a bit boring.

There aren't many things to do, and there's no need to go out on a mission. I'm bored all day and can only play cards, mahjong and board games with my friends. Recently, the port area has been equipped with the Internet and a large number of computers, which is a lot better. I can play games, watch TV series and anime to my heart's content. My life has become more colorful. However, it still seems that something is missing. Now it seems that holding such an event is obviously a very correct decision.

Especially after Noshiro announced the rewards for the competition, all the ship girls became excited, even the ones who had already been promoted to marriage ships. After all, there are too many people and too little porridge, and even if they are ship girls who have already been promoted, they can't do whatever they want.

There is a queue of one person a day and I don’t know how long it will take. What’s more, the commander has only been back to the port for a few days and will have to go out again in a week.

Only those wedding ships that went out with him could be well fed and live a good and comfortable life.

This is why the superiors who followed him out were always so active... After returning to the port area, the competition was fierce, and it was not so easy to check the commander's homework.

The children were even more excited. First of all, in order to take care of them, the rewards also included what they needed, such as snacks and candies. Besides, even they wanted those various strange "Commander XX Coupons" very much.

And the most important thing is! During the days of the sports meeting, they all have holidays!

No one is looking forward to the holidays more than these children who have been "suffering from going to school for a long time", and no one can understand how much they want the holidays. When hearing the news, perhaps the biggest wish of some children who don’t like going to school is not to win a prize, but to hope that there will be more activities like this?

Unfortunately, having been fooled once, Lin Xiao won’t be fooled so easily again next time.

There can be activities in the port area, but they don't have to be so large and formal, especially in terms of so-called rewards. As a commander, he thinks that the most important thing about an activity is that everyone has fun, and it is not necessary to set up any rewards.

Of course, he can still get a swimsuit or a party dress, but he wants it for free! No one can refuse free stuff!

The preparations before the event do not take much time. You just need to clean up the venue a little. The relevant sports equipment is available in the warehouse in the port area. In fact, everyone still goes out for some activities occasionally, such as playing ball or something... or simply sailing on the sea and coming back. The port area has abundant resources and can fully withstand such extravagant consumption.

After some simple preparations, the first fun sports meeting in the port area officially began...

Although there are wins and losses, and the rewards are so tempting that no one wants to give them up, this sports meet is mainly for fun, so naturally no one uses the power of the ship's equipment. Otherwise, the swimming competition will directly become a sailing competition, and those older sisters with slower speeds will have no chance of winning, while the submarines have an overwhelming advantage.

In fact, even if the power of the ship's equipment is restricted and not used, submarines obviously still have a considerable advantage. After all, they are very familiar with the so-called "swimming".

However, adults also have their own advantages. For example, they have long arms and legs, so their swimming speed is not slow. And most importantly, if the swimming speed is the same, they can reach the finish line faster.

However, troubles obviously exist. For example, some ship girls with thicker front armor can often float easily without any skills once they enter the water. Naturally, the resistance when swimming is also extremely large.

Such ship girls obviously had no chance of winning the swimming competition, but they did not lose either. They lost the competition, but won in a more important place, and won miserably.

For example, it is so terrible...

In fact, she had thought about winning them all at the beginning, and taking the grand prize to go to the commander to have her work inspected. After she found out that she couldn't swim fast at all, she fell into a considerable degree of frustration... until she noticed the commander's eyes.

All of a sudden, the fat dinosaur raised his head, held his head high and chest out, and became confident again.

This time, her confidence was thorough and strong to the point of being dazzling. At this moment, she seemed more like a noble royal lady than ever before.

Kewei was wearing a sky blue swimsuit, and the two poor pieces of cloth could not contain such exaggerated armor, so it even looked like it was pushed into a triangle.

Perhaps to facilitate movement, she tied her hair up into two cute little buns. Lin Xiao's gaze indeed stayed on her for quite a long time - until Noshiro, with puffed up cheeks, pinched her waist unhappily.

"You say that each has its own advantages, but in reality, you are still full of big ideas, right?"

Noshiro somewhat regretted holding this so-called event.

In fact, she is definitely not small, and she looks very well-proportioned and full of harmonious beauty.

But so what? When wearing a swimsuit, justice is always more steadfast and larger and more eye-catching.

It was just a simple swimming competition, but it was a feast for Lin Xiao's eyes. However, the angry Noshiro needed to be coaxed. Even if the queen was angry, the consequences... didn't seem to be serious at all.

To be honest, it's rare to see Noshiro with puffed cheeks and looking angry, and she's quite cute, so cute that one can't help but reach out and pinch her face. And Lin Xiao actually did what he wanted to do. This somewhat intimate action made the angry Miss Noshiro blush a little. She subconsciously looked around and found that many eyes were indeed paying attention to this side.

Then came a round of compliments. Women cannot stand compliments, even if she knows that you are complimenting her intentionally. But this compliment works and works at any time... After praising Miss Noshiro who had dressed up specially, the crisis was naturally resolved.

Although other competitions are also worthy of attention, due to the serious uneven distribution of rewards, it is obvious that the largest number of ship girls participate in various swimming competitions, which also means that many knockout rounds alone will need to be held.

Therefore, when Lin Xiao looked around, the most common scene he saw was the ship girls wearing swimsuits and queuing up to participate in the competition.

Children's swimsuits are generally cute. Submarines never have to worry about what swimsuit to choose. Their ship uniforms are swimsuits. Of course, although they are wearing ship uniforms, for fairness, they obviously cannot use the power of the ship uniforms.

Most destroyers choose one-piece swimsuits, using cuteness to cover up some of the shortcomings in their hard conditions.

His eyes swept across the group of small ship girls, and two guys who were very eye-catching, even a little blinking for other destroyers or submarines, entered Lin Xiao's sight.

Compared with Little Swan and U47, the other destroyers and submarines are simply seriously underdeveloped and even look a little pitiful.

Of course, it seems that it is not just the destroyers and submarines that are pitiful. A certain blond dwarf is so angry that he is stamping his feet, which makes War-weary beside him feel very embarrassed and helpless. If you look closely, you can see that her eyes are somewhat pitiful - it is obvious that she does not completely indifferent to this matter.

What? You ask some pink-haired file?

Logically speaking, why does she dare to appear in such an occasion in a swimsuit?

Well, she actually came, with her head held high and her face filled with pride.

According to Lin Xiao's observation, it was padded by at least five centimeters. Even so, it was just barely enough.

How pitiful, Jia Jia... Lin Xiao even felt a little sympathetic towards this child. After all, it wasn't her fault that she was so flat, right?

Such a poor child could only rely on external things to comfort herself. Lin Xiao naturally couldn't bear to expose her scars again, so he came to the little swan and casually handed a piece of fried fish he had just picked to the child's mouth.

"Um... Commander?!"

The little swan seemed startled, even a little flattered, but took the fried fish without hesitation, opened its mouth and let Lin Xiao put the fried fish into its mouth, and began to eat happily.

…I was just pinching my belly which actually didn’t have any extra fat and was worried that I seemed to have gained weight again recently.

Sure enough, for foodies, losing weight is of course a must, but controlling diet is absolutely impossible, and there is no room for negotiation!

The way this child eats is really adorable, with a very simple smile on his face and a light in his eyes. He stares closely at the commander in front of him, his joy evident in words.

"The little swan is so cute today~"

Lin Xiao looked at her light purple swimsuit which could not cover her exaggerated size at all. To be honest, the innocence of this child even made him want to desecrate her.

Of course, maybe it’s because the little swan really looks too mature, much more mature than a certain timid fox that often comes to collect homework, so naturally people will subconsciously classify her as someone who can be “hunted”.

But it doesn't work.

If I bully this girl, I will feel guilty...

Even if something really happens, it has to happen step by step and slowly.

After all, the little swan does not seem to be a child who knows nothing. Especially after the transformation, the grown-up little swan obviously knows what the commander's eyes mean when he looks at him.

She has a ring, which is envied by countless white and blue-skinned ship girls in the port area.

There was even a saying in the port area that she was the commander's "own daughter", but Lin Xiao obviously felt that this statement was not very good. It sounded a bit weird, or to be more specific... weird.

After touching the girl's little head, Lin Xiao couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead. The little swan, who had just finished eating the fried fish, immediately blushed and stammered for a long time without being able to speak.

So cute...

But he can't stay with her like this for too long. As a commander, he must learn to treat his own ship girl fairly.

So after saying goodbye to Little Swan, Lin Xiao found another "traitor", U47.

This child has a rather withdrawn or quiet personality.

So while everyone was chatting animatedly, she was just quietly hiding under the parasol, holding a glass of ice soda in one hand and a book in the other.

Lin Xiao felt that the book seemed familiar. After taking a closer look, he found that it was a novel he had written. He felt embarrassed.

"Aren't you going to play with everyone?"

However, he still sat next to U47 and touched the child's head.

“No need…” U47 looked up at him without showing any excitement, but shook the book in her hand and said, “This is very nice.”

"Thank you."

Lin Xiao smiled. In fact, he knew that he didn't need to worry too much about this child. Although her personality was a little withdrawn, it didn't mean she couldn't communicate with her peers, nor did she mean she couldn't express her feelings.

He was just expressing his concern for this cute little girl.

Well, it’s definitely not because its scale is too conspicuous…

After a brief chat with U47, Lin Xiao went to look for his next target.

Well, this sounds a bit weird, but it is true. Commander Lin Xiao may go to compete with the ship girls again. Apart from being a spectator, he can only chat with his own ship girls.

Besides, it's rare for them to wear swimsuits, so we should watch them up close and praise them.

No…wait?

The commander cannot participate in the KanColle competition. At first glance, it seems right and reasonable, but... he is not an ordinary commander?

To be honest, his current physical fitness is not worse than that of the ship girls, and is even much stronger. Even most of the battleship girls are not as good as him in physical fitness.

So logically speaking, it is completely possible for him to participate in the competition, and he is even a very competitive player?

Emmmm......

Lin Xiao seemed to suddenly realize something.

What if he wins the competition and gets the first prize?

Then isn’t this so-called “first prize” just a blank check?

Shit, that seems to work!

Lin Xiao realized it, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly became excited. He put down the little loli in his arms and ran straight towards Noshiro who was not far away.
