I, Azure Commander!

If you look at it from this angle, the one who needs care is a beautiful rich girl, so it's really not a loss no matter how you think about it.

Chapter 19: The Duplicity Maid

"No problem. If there's anything we can do, Commander Lin Xiao, just ask."

Chisa Amemiya naturally agreed readily, and seemed not to care at all how big the task would be that Lin Xiao would ask her to do.

He just happened to be entering school this year, and he was a super seal who already had four ship girls. Chisa Amamiya really couldn't think of anyone else more suitable than him to take care of her little sister. Besides, making friends with such a person was definitely a good thing.

She actually hoped that the things Lin Xiao would ask the Amemiya family to do in the future would be bigger and more troublesome. In this way, if the transaction was not equal, Lin Xiao would naturally accept their favor, and there would be a greater possibility of more cooperation in the future.

This is a good profit, right?

As a result, this deal in which both parties felt they had not lost out was reached so readily.

The vehicle continued driving and soon arrived at the beach. When the car window was opened, a cool breath immediately blew in, dispelling the hot summer air.

After parking the car in the parking lot of the villa area, everyone got out of the car and looked at the blue sea in front of them.

The greenery around is very delicate. I have to say that living in such a place really gives me a sense of tranquility and remoteness, as if I were far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and found a piece of pure land in this quiet place.

Plus, you can get it for free, which makes you extremely satisfied.

"As for the location of the villa, I have temporarily arranged a villa near the sea. If you want another place, you can always change it."

"No need, just leave it at that."

The villa that Chisa Amemiya chose for them was in the row closest to the sea, with the best air and the most pleasant scenery. It could be said to be the best location. There were only four villas with the same conditions, so arranging them here was a sign of sincerity.

I took the key, opened the door, and walked into the villa. What caught my eye was the extremely exquisite decoration. Every detail was just right, but it did not make people feel cumbersome or redundant. It was obviously the work of a master.

“Nice place.”

Even Sheffield, the royal maid, nodded and gave a positive evaluation.

Lin Xiao didn't really understand this, and Amamiya Chisa didn't introduce the decorations in the villa one by one like she would to ordinary guests. Instead, she said with a tactful look, "Since you are satisfied with this place, I will take my leave first. If you need anything later, you can contact our staff directly through the communication equipment in the villa, or you can contact me directly."

As she spoke, she handed over a business card.

"The car outside will stay with you. If necessary, we can also assign a driver specifically for you."

"That's not necessary..."

Lin Xiao waved his hands in embarrassment. He was still somewhat uncomfortable with the life of a noble lord.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore..."

After saying this, Chisa Amamiya turned around and left the villa to go about her own business.

The goal has been achieved. The commander obviously doesn't want to have too much contact with her. If he continues to stay, it will only annoy her. Moreover, this matter must be reported to the family as soon as possible, and the best treatment must be arranged here. There must be no negligence.

"Whoo~"

Lin Xiao had set his eyes on the comfortable-looking sofa in the hall early in the morning, and as soon as Amamiya Chisa left, he lay down on it.

Chuchun hid behind him the whole time and was extremely nervous. She didn't feel relieved even now. She looked left and right, as if she was not used to such a place.

However, Sheffield and Xiaotiancheng did not have any difficulty adapting to this. Even the Royal Ark was still immersed in the "performance" in front of outsiders. She looked quite cold and aloof, and was accustomed to the luxury in front of her.

"Hatsuharu, come here, commander."

As Lin Xiao spoke, he took out a piece of fruit candy from his pocket. He seemed to be addicted to petting cats these past few days. Wherever he went, he always wanted to hold a cat in his arms, rub its ears, and touch its hair when he had nothing to do.

But maybe because its tail is too sensitive, Chuchun never lets you touch it. It will blush and its fur will stand on end if you touch it.

Hatsuharu didn't seem to resist this, and she even slowly developed the habit of sitting in the commander's arms whenever she had nothing to do. This gave her a very safe feeling.

If this continues, the already high favorability rating will soon be maxed out.

"Wow! Commander, so cunning!"

Seeing Chuchun stretching out her little hand to take the fruit candy from Lin Xiao's hand, and sitting on Lin Xiao's lap, Royal Ark couldn't hold it anymore. Her image of a cool and majestic sister was broken in a second, and she looked eagerly at Xiao Tiancheng who was sitting on the side peeling oranges.

"Xiao Tiancheng, come to your sister, let me help you peel the orange!"

Xiao Tiancheng raised his head and smiled sweetly at her.

"No, Amagi likes to peel his own oranges."

Royal Ark suddenly looked miserable and became autistic.

When the Commander helped you peel an orange two days ago, you didn't say that...

Sheffield quickly put on the identity of a maid and started to work. Although Chisa Amemiya had specially arranged someone to clean the villa before they came, in the opinion of cleaning expert Sheffield, this level of cleaning obviously still had some omissions and needed to be checked and filled. After finishing the cleaning work, she took out a can of tea from the cabinet, brewed a pot of black tea, took out a few small cups, and poured black tea for everyone.

Lin Xiao looked at her busying around and couldn't help but say, "Xie Fei, you should also take a rest. Don't work too hard."

Sheffield stopped what he was doing, looked up at Lin Xiao, and replied: "I see, the master wants to do whatever he wants to Sheffield in the name of rest? But now is the maid's working time, if the evil master wants to do something strange to the poor maid, please wait until the rest time to harass her."

Although she said it toughly, after pouring the tea, the maid still sat on the sofa opposite, picked up a cup of tea, and blew the steaming hot tea nonchalantly. If you look closely, you can find that her golden pupils are flashing with some joy. It seems that she is in a good mood because she is cared for.

So, are the nonsense she says on a daily basis just straightforward remarks or hints of some hidden expectations?

Anyway, the housing problem has been solved. Next, I should find out about the festival and prepare in advance...

Chapter 20 The Girl Who Came to Visit

After settling down in the villa, the idle Lin Xiao began to collect information about the festival that would be held in a few days.

There was no need to ask anyone specifically. Although social communications were not well developed, other than that, the world could still use the Internet normally. Lin Xiao searched on 50 degrees and soon got some basic information about the festival, even with some pictures.

After all, we have come all the way here. Regardless of whether we can find anyone, since we are already participating in the festival, we should at least have fun and feel the atmosphere of the festival, right?

"Well, fireworks, snack stands, goldfish scooping, shrine visits..."

The website introduces many activities that will take place during the festival. Many of them are very familiar and will not feel unfamiliar. They also look quite interesting, but...

Lin Xiao looked at the pictures in front of him. Many of the men and women in the pictures were wearing clothing with J-district characteristics.

Yukata, or kimono, except for Xiao Tiancheng, their clothes don't seem to match these.

Although it's not impossible to attend the festival in casual clothes, I always feel that I won't fit in. Now it's different from before in the game. It's just a few sets of clothes, and it won't cost much. Otherwise...

"Shall we go buy some yukatas or kimonos?"

Lin Xiao suddenly raised his head and said to Xie Fei who was cleaning the room.

Xie Fei paused and looked at him, with a hint of anticipation in her golden eyes. "If this is what you are interested in, then the poor maid who can't resist her master's orders can only be forced to change into all kinds of weird clothes."

When she was in the port area before, Xie Fei envied the ship girls who received new clothes bought by the master. Now it is really strange to think about it. The port area should not be short of money, so why does the master rarely buy new clothes for everyone in the port area?

Although there is nothing wrong with this ship uniform, and as a maid she certainly won't dislike her work clothes, but if there are new clothes... of course she won't refuse them.

"Eh? Commander, are you going to take us shopping for new clothes?"

Hatsuharu also opened her eyes wide in surprise, seeming a little unbelievable. In the past, it seemed that only those ship girls with a lot of sorties and a high level of training would be bought clothes by the commander. Some of them were even wedding ships. Could she really receive clothes bought by the commander?

Lin Xiao could probably guess what they were thinking at this time, and could only sigh helplessly in his heart.

There is no way. It’s not that we don’t want to, but your commander was really poor before!

Damn it, I must take the girls to the clothing store tomorrow and buy as much as they want. As long as the girls like the clothes, I will buy them all first.

"Ding-dong--!"

Just when Lin Xiao was planning whether to simply buy the entire clothing store, the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Who is it?"

"Well... um, Senior, excuse me, could you please open the door for a moment?"

A somewhat weak voice came from outside the door. Just by listening to the voice, it seemed that the personality was similar to Hatsuharu's.

Girls?

Lin Xiao’s first reaction was Chisa Amamiya, but the voice didn’t seem similar, and what the hell was “senior”?

No matter what, there wouldn't be any bad guys in this place, and they were not afraid of any so-called bad guys, so Lin Xiao nodded, and Sheffield immediately put down the cleaning tools in his hands and opened the door.

"Hello, Senior... Um..."

Outside the door was a short girl with two ponytails. She looked very energetic, but she seemed very nervous at the moment and didn't dare to look Sheffield in the eye.

It's not her fault. In front of outsiders, Sheffield presents herself as a serious and handsome maid. With her expressionless face, it's really oppressive.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

Sheffield said with a cold expression.

"I...I'm here to see Senior Lin Xiao."

The girl shrank her neck and spoke in a low voice. After the initial nervousness and fear, her eyes glowed as she looked at Sheffield.

"Sister, are you a ship girl?"

"..."

Sheffield was at a loss for words when asked such a straightforward question, so he turned around and looked at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao also stood up and walked over at this time, taking a look at the girl in front of him.

When I got closer, I saw that, wow, although this girl was not tall, about the same height as Sheffield, she had developed very well and could definitely crush Sheffield.

Sheffield's mouth twitched suddenly, and she inexplicably had the urge to be sarcastic, but this was in front of outsiders after all, and she still had to maintain the demeanor of a royal maid, so she endured it.

"Yes, may I ask who you are?"

When the girl saw Lin Xiao, her eyes lit up immediately and she said, "You must be Senior Lin Xiao, right? I'm Yu Gong Qian Yue, the younger sister of Sister Qian Sha. I heard that you live here, so I came to visit you."

"That's it."

Lin Xiao nodded in understanding, so the person in front of him was the sister that Chisa Amemiya asked him to take care of?

He does look very cute, very polite and has a likable personality. Although he is a little restrained now, it can be seen that he should be a lively child.

However, Lin Xiao was still a little surprised by her sudden visit.

"Anyway, come in and sit down first."

Strictly speaking, this is still someone else's house, and the little girl can't just stand at the door like that. Lin Xiao took her to the sofa, and the little girl sat down next to the Royal Ark, looking at the handsome and serious big sister next to her nervously.

Royal Ark had a stern expression. He glanced at her and nodded, which was considered a greeting.

It's not that she's pretending to be serious, but the other party is an outsider after all, and a human being at that, not the destroyer she likes. The Royal Ark has always been like this when treating outsiders. She will only become a fool in front of her own people and destroyers.

"Senior Lin Xiao, are these all your ship girls?"

After Lin Xiao sat down on the sofa opposite her, Yu Gong Qianyue asked with anticipation and curiosity on her face.

"Yeah, yeah..."

Lin Xiao looked at Yu Gong Qian Yue in front of him. She was so anxious to come over to visit him. She must have some other intentions, right? But now he was a little unclear about what this little girl's purpose was. He could only deal with it for the time being and see what she was up to.

"so good......"

A look of deep envy immediately appeared on Yugong Qianyue's face, and then she took the black tea handed over by Sheffield with both hands and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, sister~"

Chapter 21: There is no shortcut to salvaging the boat!

"So, Miss Amamiya came to see me in such a hurry, is there something wrong?"

While drinking tea, Lin Xiao looked at Yugong Qianyue in front of him and asked directly.

Her sister just passed away not long ago. Even if it is a so-called "visit to the elders", there is no need to be so anxious, right?

"Senior, just call me Qianyue..." This girl really treated Lin Xiao as a serious senior. She seemed a little restrained, which made Lin Xiao feel a little embarrassed.

How could he be called a senior? He was just a layman who hadn't even entered the Naval Academy.

But since the other party has said so, there is no need for him to make things so distant between them.

"Well, actually... Qianyue came to see you, Senior, because she does have something to ask you."

It can be seen that although Yu Gong Qian Yue was a little restrained, she was not the type to hide things. She openly admitted that she had another purpose for this trip.

"Tell me, if I can be of any help..."

Lin Xiao took a sip of black tea. After all, he was still using the other person's house for free, so if it was just a small favor, he should help.

"I want to ask, um...are these ship girls all picked up by you, senior?"

"Well, that's right."

Lin Xiao didn't expect the other party to ask this question, and was somewhat embarrassed for a moment.

Can it be said that Sheffield and the others earned it on their own?

Logically speaking, it should be counted, but this is not his ability at all. To put it bluntly, he is just cheating...
