I, Azure Commander!

After all, Lin Xiaoke didn't want to go out to look for people in the winter in Area R, so he tried to finish everything before winter came, and then go back quickly and leave this freezing place...

"Commander, I'll go make some hot soup. The weather is too cold and you just got cold. Drink something hot to warm your stomach and don't get sick."

Noshiro is still the same Noshiro, attentive and gentle. Although her cooking skills are not that great, she can still make a soup without any problems. However...

After opening the refrigerator and looking at the empty cabinets, Noshiro was speechless for a moment.

Yes, because things happened so quickly, even if the owner of the villa wanted to be more thoughtful and buy some ingredients to put in the refrigerator, it would be too late. Turning on the air conditioner in advance with a remote control was already quite considerate.

and so……

Although I don't really want to leave the air-conditioned room in this cold weather, it seems that I can't avoid it...

"Commander, can you come for a walk with me? The fridge is empty, shall we go buy some food?"

"..."

Noshiro, who had just walked into the kitchen, came out not long after. Lin Xiao was confused at first, but when he heard what the other party said, his face immediately showed bitterness.

"Do you really want to go?"

Listening to the faint whistling sound of the wind outside the window, to be honest, Lin Xiao really didn't want to go out at all.

She just said she was worried that he would catch a cold, but in fact she knew very well that he would not be sick! She just wanted to use the soup-making thing to improve his favorability.

My innocent Noshiro wife, who on earth made you become like this?

Chapter 9: Adventure at the Vegetable Market

Although Lin Xiao had seen through Noshiro's little thoughts to some extent, he did not refuse.

Even though it's freezing cold outside, how can it stop him from accompanying his wife shopping?

Since Noshiro doesn’t feel cold, then naturally he won’t feel cold either. He will pretend to be cold even if he feels cold, and then secretly take revenge at night and make Noshiro “pay the price”.

Oh, no, my thoughts are getting weirder and weirder... He was obviously not like this before. Think about him, he was such a simple and honest young man.

What now?

A scum of the world, a sex addict, with a face thicker than a city wall, who lies to girls without blinking an eye... Perhaps, this is what is called growing up?

Bullshit! It was clearly him who became a scumbag, and he was spoiled by the ship girls until he became like this.

Damn it, I got fooled!

Now I really can't leave these women.

It was indeed hard for Lin Xiao to imagine what kind of a rotten person he would become without these ship girls.

In the end, he fell into the trap set by the ship girls. Although he knew very well that he had fallen into the trap, he never regretted it.

So be it. I will spend my life with these lovely and beautiful guys. I will have no regrets.

Lin Xiao looked at Noshiro, whose face suddenly showed joy, and smiled with a sense of helplessness and doting.

With such a happy life, what else could you ask for?

After talking to Skyhawk Sirius and the others, the maids suggested that they go buy it later, but Lin Xiaowan declined.

Noshiro had invited him, and he had accepted. It would be bad to regret it. Besides... although they were maids, in Lin Xiao's eyes they were all his ship girls, and he couldn't trouble them for everything.

So, after wrapping themselves in thick clothes, putting on gloves and a scarf, Lin Xiao went out with Noshiro.

To be honest, going shopping together seems to be a very romantic thing. However, because Lin Xiao was wearing too many and too thick clothes, there was no such atmosphere between the two of them.

Noshiro didn't mind it at all. She held Lin Xiao's arm and walked side by side with him, her eyes full of joy and little girl's affection.

Even though she was Lin Xiao's favorite and the first ship girl he got, the so-called "love" between them was still a bit empty. It was not that the feelings were not sincere enough, but that the time they spent together was really limited. They rarely had time to be alone. They had never done things that many couples in love would do. It was a pity if you think about it carefully.

After all, there are too many ship girls in the port area and he has too little time. Many marriage ships require him to give an explanation, and there is nothing he can do about it.

Fortunately, most of the ship girls who were stranded outside have been found and returned home. As long as the remaining ship girls are found, he will have plenty of time to accompany them wholeheartedly.

Although there are many ship girls in the port area, but there is only one commander, he is idle!

He was so idle that he had nothing to do. The port was so powerful and there was a Siren boss hiding inside. There was no crisis at all. The work of the port was also handled by capable secretary ships, and the big financial problem was also solved by Aunt Saint. Besides, after finding and arresting the two profiteers, the port would have no shortage of money. So for him as the commander, it seemed that there was only one thing to do.

That is to spend everything you have with these lovely girls.

Lin Xiao naturally knew how good they were to him, so he should try his best to respond to their expectations...

What can I say... Fortunately, he is in good health.

Although it is not in the city center and is a bit remote, it is a place where rich people keep their mistresses, and there is a reason for that. Although there are no large shopping malls nearby, if you walk a little further, you will find a relatively prosperous commercial street, which has everything you need, even more complete than those in large shopping malls.

And of course, the vegetable market is also indispensable.

Lin Xiao and Noshiro's target was naturally there.

However, after all, they had to walk "a little" farther. To be honest, Lin Xiao was not from the north after all. Even though he was wearing thick clothes, he was still cold and had a runny nose.

To be honest, it was a bit embarrassing to see Noshiro wanting to laugh but holding it back to save his face.

"Okay, stop watching the show. Didn't you bring paper?"

Lin Xiao tightened his arms around the girl's waist and held the girl completely in his arms. After all, they were still on the street. Noshiro's face suddenly turned redder. She stopped laughing at him and took out a tissue from her bag. Before Lin Xiao was about to reach out to take it, she used the tissue to wipe his nose.

Such a scene of "dog abuse" naturally attracted a lot of sighs and envious and jealous eyes. However, no matter how much people disagree with such behavior of "dog abuse", after seeing this handsome man and beautiful woman, they couldn't help but bless them from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, they seem to be a good match.

Of course, the horns on Noshiro's head naturally attracted attention. After all, this was an inland city and it was relatively rare to see ship girls. So a girl with such obvious features who looked like a ship girl made everyone curious and they looked at them frequently.

"This girl is a ship girl, so the one who is close to her must be her commander, right?"

"That's great... The commander is a serious officer, and this guy is so handsome, young and promising, and has such a beautiful ship girl by his side... I'm so envious!"

"Yeah, yeah, how great would it be if I could be the commander?"

"Who says it's not? But can everyone be this person? If you were, you would have been in the Naval Academy a long time ago."

"Hey, don't tell me, I'm just a student at the Naval Academy, just out to relax on the weekend."

"Fuck!"

The "brothers in distress" who had just stood on the same front suddenly kept a distance from that person. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that there was actually a cute little loli following behind this guy.

"He's really a trainee commander? This is really weird..."

Well, it was already sour, and now it’s even sourer. It makes my teeth feel sour.

What is this?

"hey-hey……"

The young man scratched his head and laughed, looking a little proud, but not annoying. He touched the head of the little girl behind him and said, "My relationship with Z19 is also very good. I will give her a ring to make the vow official soon!"

"Brother Xing, you are living a really good life. You have a good head, a good head..."

Lin Xiao didn't pay much attention to the noise around him. Since he had agreed to accompany her shopping and buying groceries, even if the other party didn't say it, he was not so stupid as to not realize that this was actually a date.

It's not gentlemanly to be indecisive when dating a girl.

After Nodai wiped away his frozen snot, the two continued to walk hand in hand on the street with their fingers interlocked as if no one was around... well, although Lin Xiao was wearing gloves at this time.

He also wanted to touch Noshiro's soft, smooth and tender little hands. After all, he had felt the beauty of these little hands more than once. Who would want to wear a condom if they could do it without one? However, this winter was so cold that if he didn't wear gloves and let the cold wind blow through, he would probably be frozen red and unconscious in a few minutes.

No matter how strong your physique is, you won't have any problem with the cold; it doesn't mean you are not afraid of the cold.

So even though Noshiro had not originally planned to do so, Lin Xiao still asked her to wear gloves and a scarf, and change her original black stockings to a warm style - originally he was planning to just let her wear pants, but Noshiro refused to do so, so he had to give up.

After all, she is a girl, so she will definitely care about what her man thinks of her.

Time seemed to go by faster as they walked and soon, Lin Xiao and Noshiro arrived at their destination - the bustling commercial street.

It's not wrong to say that it's prosperous. Even though it's not the peak time for shopping, there are still a lot of people here, so many that it's almost crowded.

There were a wide variety of shops on both sides, with all kinds of goods. The signs were all written in words that Lin Xiao couldn't understand. If he didn't know English, communication would be a big problem. He would have to take out his phone to translate every word he said.

I hope the vegetable stall owner can understand Ying language... Although this seems unlikely, Lin Xiao estimates that he will probably have to use a "translator" later.

But fortunately, if you just buy something, you don’t need to say much and use many words, so it shouldn’t be too troublesome.

"Speaking of which, what are you going to prepare for dinner tonight?"

Originally, I was planning to just cook a soup, but now that I’m already out buying ingredients, I’ll naturally buy more at once. Then I don’t have to go out to eat when I get home and can just cook it myself at home.

Among the ship girls brought here, the only ones who can cook at level eight seem to be Dai and Tianying.

"Well, well... what would you like to eat, Commander?"

Noshiro did not directly answer Lin Xiao's question, but asked a question in return and kicked the ball to him.

Obviously, rather than what dish she wants to cook, the question should be - what dish does the commander want to eat?

"Anything is fine. You know I'm not picky."

This is the honest truth. Lin Xiao is not really picky about food. Apart from the fact that he really doesn't like carrots, he also stays away from royal dishes. He basically eats everything else as long as the taste is acceptable.

Of course, although Noshiro and Tianying’s cooking skills are not that great, they are at least at a certain level. What’s more important is that the food cooked by one’s own wife tastes delicious!

"Well, shall we make some carrot puree later?"

Noshiro showed a playful expression, which made Lin Xiao's face fall immediately. He stretched out his hand and pinched her face, then felt that wearing gloves was not satisfying, so he simply bit the soft face lightly, leaving some water stains on the girl's face.

"Alas!"

Noshiro immediately showed a look of disdain and pursed her lips: "Commander, if you continue like this, I will ignore you~"

Although she said that, her tone was delicate and she didn't sound angry at all. She was just acting coquettishly.

Naturally, Lin Xiao didn't take it seriously. He shamelessly pretended not to hear anything. He even went a step further and rested his chin on Noshiro's shoulder, blowing gently into that small ear.

"ah!"

Noshiro let out a suppressed cry, her entire face turned completely red. She raised her head and rolled her eyes at him, then finally lost her temper and quietly reached out and pinched the soft flesh on Lin Xiao's waist.

However, even so, she was reluctant to use force, for fear of hurting him. For Lin Xiao, who had thick skin, it didn't hurt at all, and naturally he didn't learn any lesson.

However, as they were about to enter the vegetable market, the crowd was getting more and more crowded. Lin Xiao didn't continue to fool around. He straightened his posture, stood up straight, put his arm around Noshiro's shoulders and protected him in his arms, and walked into the vegetable market along with the crowded crowd.

This is a relatively standardized vegetable market, with various types of ingredients clearly classified. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many people, shopping for vegetables here would probably be a pretty good experience.

Because they had no idea in their minds what ingredients to buy and had not made any list before coming, Lin Xiao and Noshiro wandered around the market completely at will. If they saw anything fresh and good-looking, they would buy some. If they saw something they suddenly wanted to eat, they would buy some too. Soon, their hands were full of bags.

"It's almost done..."

Lin Xiao weighed the heavy plastic bag in his hand. To be honest, the vegetables he bought in such a short time were enough for them to eat for two or three days.

Although I came here with the intention of buying a little more, this is obviously enough. I will ask the maids to come and buy more after I finish eating.

Thinking that it was about time, Lin Xiao prepared to leave with Noshiro. Maybe he was not in a hurry to go back, but might continue to wander around the commercial street for a while. However, he probably wouldn't be able to buy anything, after all, he really didn't have any free hands to carry things.

"Let's go out first..."

"Ah."

Noshiro nodded, still sticking close to Lin Xiao, standing a little behind him, letting him help her block the crowd rushing in front, feeling sweet in her heart.

Although it was just an ordinary shopping trip, for Noshiro, it was already a happy thing.

Isn't it just this simple little happiness that she, or they, want?

How does that sentence go? It's good to have you by my side.

This is true for Noshiro and all the ship girls. As long as the person they care about the most... as long as the commander is by their side, no matter what they do, it will be very interesting. Even if it is just walking side by side, if they can walk hand in hand, it is a good thing that is worth smiling all day long.

"what?"

However, immersed in such a little happiness and contentedly acting as a little wife, Noshiro suddenly made a sound of surprise and then stopped. She realized that because she was carrying vegetables, she was not holding hands with the commander, so she hurriedly took a few steps forward and bumped into Lin Xiao's back, which made him stop.

"What's up, Noshiro, is there anything else you want to buy?"

Lin Xiao turned his head doubtfully, but just by concentrating his attention, he came out of his happy daze. Without Nengdai saying anything, he had already discovered the problem.

The radar... responded!

Such a coincidence?

A look of joy suddenly emerged on Lin Xiao's face. He followed Noshiro's gaze and saw a little girl with long lilac hair tied into a ponytail. She was not very tall, but did not look like a child at all. To be more specific, she was a short girl, similar to Jiang Feng, but compared to Jiang Feng, she was less mature and more childish.

"That's... Tashkent?"

Because the ponytail was so conspicuous and left a very deep impression on Lin Xiao's mind, even though the clothes she wore were completely different from her skin color, Lin Xiao recognized this cute girl in less than half a second.

That is undoubtedly the ship girl from our own port area!

Behind Tashkent, there was a cute girl wearing a Cossack hat, two pigtails and white mid-calf fur boots.
