I, Azure Commander!

Of course, Lin Xiao would not reveal all these things, as children have their own way of living.

Since they already knew where the commander was, St. Louis led everyone to a simple registration and then headed towards the Naval Academy.

Of course, such an army of ship girls coming on a luxury cruise ship attracted countless people's attention. There were nine ship girls, including big sisters and little girls. It could be said that it was quite a spectacular scene.

However, St. Louis and her companions had lived in human society for a long time and were accustomed to these focused gazes. They ignored them, casually rejected several commanders who wanted to come over and chat with them, and then concentrated on their journey.

After all, the Naval Academy was not far from the port, and they arrived at their destination around one o'clock in the afternoon.

"Wow, so many ship girls!"

At this time, the students in the academy were preparing to go to the classroom for classes. Along the way, there were commanders with ship girls everywhere. Seeing so many ship girls acting in a group made their eyes wide open.

"Who are these people? I don't think I've seen them in the academy before?"

"I'm not sure... Could it be that the dean has hired a new instructor?"

"Maybe she's from a nearby maritime bureau, or a ship girl under a certain commander, and she came to discuss something with the dean..."

"I guess it's not a problem. Otherwise, it can't be that some lucky guy got all those ships at once, haha..."

The man was halfway through laughing when he suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was not right. He was a little surprised and said, "Hey, you don't really think this is possible, do you? Come on, anyone with a little bit of common sense knows that this is impossible, right?"

"The people in this academy are all trainee commanders, all new, and they are always in class. Where do they have the time and energy to recruit so many ship girls at once?"

"..."

According to common sense, this does not seem to be possible. If it were two or three months ago, they would never have thought in this direction, but...

"Isn't there one who is in the academy but doesn't have to attend classes?"

……

Someone's words came true and revealed the key to the problem. The commanders around suddenly looked terrified.

Yeah, if it's that person...

They all recalled the "painful" memories that they could not bear to look back on.

He has more than twenty ship girls under his command, and all of them are as fierce as monsters. He has built two ships in public, one with a colorful skin, and the other with the ultimate plan that is comparable to the colorful skin or even more powerful than the colorful skin in some ways. At one point, they were almost numb from the sun.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that the gentleman has not been active for a long time recently... more than two months, right?

If he had held back something big during the past two months, it didn't seem impossible...

Of course, it's only possible.

Soon, someone in the crowd began to comfort themselves, and to be honest, the possibility was not very high. People should not think of everything in a bad way. Maybe it is not what they think? Maybe they still have a chance to get these ship girls?

"Look, that...isn't that the seal's ship girl?!"

Not only did someone yell, but everyone immediately looked over and saw a bunny jumping around, it was Shimakaze!

"Yes! I recognize her. She is the legendary colorful ship girl, the Shimakaze destroyer!"

"Then if she doesn't know those ship girls, then it shouldn't be the case, right?"

"yes……"

Everyone was suddenly enlightened when they heard this, and they all looked intently at Shimakaze who was about to collide with the group of ship girls.

Shimakaze did notice these ship girls - mainly because he saw a few of the rabbits among them, so he cast a curious look at them, but quickly looked away, obviously not knowing them.

"Whoo~"

"It was a false alarm. I told you, even if it was that seal, it wouldn't be that serious--Pfft!!!"

Before that person finished speaking, he saw the blue-haired older sister among the ship girls quickly step forward and hug Lin Xiao, who was following closely behind Shimakaze to send Tutu to class.

"This……"

"Ah this..."

This dramatic scene changed so quickly and unexpectedly. Just now the situation seemed to be good and I thought there would be light at the end of the tunnel, but in the blink of an eye I found out that the flowers and willows were actually baits!

They were exposed to the sun again and again!

And this time I should have been able to react and prepare myself mentally, not letting my defenses down, but...

Damn it, damn the European emperor! He actually used the ignorant and cute bunnies to show them off in such a despicable way. I am so envious... No, it is so hateful!

No matter how angry they were, they still had to go to class. These unfortunate commanders soon had no choice but to hang their heads and lead their own ship girls to class.

Because if the seals are so angry that their mentality explodes, then they will suffer the consequences. Isn't it just that they have saved nine ship girls in one go? Haha, that's all...

Chapter 3: Arrogant Harman's Great Failure

Lin Xiao, who was taking Shimakaze and Kahora to class, didn't pay attention, or didn't want to pay attention to how many unlucky people he had accidentally exposed to the sun. When he saw Helena and St. Louis coming towards him, he was also shocked.

"Aunt Saint...Hai Ma?!"

He cried out in surprise, which frightened Anchorage, who was following him and grabbing the corner of his clothes with her little hands.

"It's really you, Commander..."

St. Louis hugged the commander in front of her. Even though she was a mature big sister, she felt tears welling up in her eyes at this moment.

More than three years have passed. During this long time, they went from being full of hope to gradually disappointed, and then to almost disappointed. At one point, they even lost the motivation in life. Now, they have finally recovered what they had lost and are back with the people they love most. There are so many emotions in their hearts that it is hard to put into words.

Lin Xiao was a little at a loss. He slowly put his arms around the waist of the girl in front of him, feeling her soft body still pressing against his arms.

"Aunt Saint, calm down, calm down a little... I can't stand anymore."

Finally, after more than ten seconds, Lin Xiao's calves were shaking and he couldn't help but speak.

"Oh……"

St. Louis came back to her senses and let go of Lin Xiao. Behind her, a group of girls came up. All the children had tears in their eyes, especially Harman, whose eyes were red and looked like she might cry at any time. Before Sims came, he said he would play such and such pranks, but when he really saw people, he just stood there stupidly, secretly wiping away tears.

After all, they are still children. Compared with adults, they don't feel the pain of separation very easily, but because they have no opinions of their own, their dependence on the commander is incomparable to that of adults.

To them, the commander is the real head of the port area. When the children are naughty, many people will not listen to them, but if the commander frowns a little, they will immediately bow their heads and admit their mistakes. When they are sad, the thing they want to do most is to crawl into the commander's arms and act coquettishly, but unfortunately... the commander doesn't seem to like them.

He keeps saying "I like you" and "you are my wife" and "you are my favorite ship girl", but he has never hugged them... not even once!

So now seeing Sister St. Louis hugging the Commander, while they were moved and in tears because of the reunion, they also envied her for being hugged by the Commander.

St. Louis finally let go of his hand. Lin Xiao took a few deep breaths and began to greet the girls.

The first one is naturally Helena, his wife, who follows behind St. Louis!

"Helena..."

He walked up to her and called her by her name, which was rare. The shy Hai Ma immediately lowered her head, a blush appeared on her pale face, and her hands were twisted together in confusion. She looked up and secretly looked at him.

Perhaps because of St. Louis’s bold move just now, Lin Xiao no longer acted pretentiously. He walked forward and hugged the blue-haired girl in front of him.

“Eh…eh?!!!”

Helena's face suddenly turned red, she let out a low cry, and became more and more at a loss, not knowing where to put her hands.

"Helena, I love you."

Lin Xiao spoke softly in the girl's ear, making Helena so embarrassed that her eyes seemed to be spinning and she collapsed into his arms.

Helena's shy look is so awesome!

Lin Xiao cheered in his heart. As expected, they were all his favorite ship girls and his wings.

After a while, Lin Xiao let go of Helena, who had finally come to her senses, and set his sights on the next girl.

Naturally, he stared at Harman, whose face was already red.

"You...what are you going to do?"

When Harman saw him setting his eyes on him, he immediately took two steps back and looked at him warily, "You...you, perverted commander, Harman doesn't miss you! Don't come over here!"

"Oh, okay."

Lin Xiao was immediately disappointed when he heard this. "I thought my little wife, Harman, must have missed me very much. In this case..."

"Baltimore, I love you!"

Even the cheerful brown-haired girl couldn't stand Lin Xiao's sudden remarks that sounded like he was having an attack.

Baltimore looked at the commander in front of her with somewhat embarrassed eyes, but she was the warm and generous White Eagle ship girl after all, and not as arrogant as Haman. She took the initiative to step forward and gave Lin Xiao a big hug, then took a half step back and saluted with a standard military salute.

"Hull number CA-68, Baltimore-class heavy cruiser Baltimore, officially returns to the port area!"

After all, he is Wang Xiaoming, and his character is more straightforward and has a military air. Of course, the sound this girl made when she was "sneak attacked" was quite cute.

Lin Xiao was deeply impressed by this and used to like poking around some strange places in Baltimore.

No matter how pretty a girl is, there will always be a moment when she becomes tender and delicate...

The other children were easier to deal with. They went forward without hesitation, picked them up, kissed their faces, and lifted them up high. Even the older loli, Sims, was no exception. The little loli who had been held immediately became obedient, with rosy cheeks. The originally naughty children were now well-behaved.

Harman, who was standing by, was completely dumbfounded at what was happening.

What about her? What about her hug?

No... Ha, Haman doesn't want his hug!

The cute girl with animal ears stamped her feet and turned her head away angrily.

Baltimore looked at her helplessly. As expected, she knew that being arrogant would lead to big losses these days.

Although she did not expect that what Miss Yorktown mentioned in the letter, "The commander has become better than before," was so exaggerated, she gave each of them a big hug as soon as they met.

"By the way, Baltimore, I have something I want to trouble you with."

Just as he was daydreaming, he suddenly heard the commander calling him. Baltimore immediately perked up, straightened his back, and looked ready to go at any time.

"Don't be so nervous, it's not a big deal, I just want you to help me take care of the child..."

"This child?"

Baltimore looked at Anchorage who was pushed out by Lin Xiao...child?

"It's like this, this child's situation is a little special..."

Lin Xiao had no choice but to tell the story of Anchorage again.

"I see. Is that the best option?"

There were already quite a few scientific research vessels at home, so Baltimore understood quickly, "It looks like he will be another very powerful and reliable companion!"

"And the 8-inch heavy cruiser project CA-B that this child belongs to seems to be one of the improvements to the Baltimore class. In other words, this child is actually your sister, right? This child really likes you~"

Chapter 4: Darkened Helena

“Baltimore… is cool!”

As if to confirm Lin Xiao's words, Anchorage quickly looked at Baltimore with shining eyes of admiration, which made Wang Xiaoming scratch his hair embarrassedly and grinned foolishly.

"So, the commander just wants me to take care of this child?"

"Well, as you said, she does have extremely powerful potential... According to the preliminary assessment of the Maritime Administration, her potential far exceeds that of Ron and Louis IX, and even exceeds that of my wife in terms of defense."

"More powerful than my wife?!"

Baltimore was shocked. She knew very well how powerful her gentle and considerate wife was at home. She was a monster!

"That's not the case. Of course, she can't match my wife's output, but she is better at defense. It can be said that her defense is unprecedented."

"I understand."

Baltimore nodded solemnly, then patted his chest and said, "Leave this child's training to me. I will definitely let her realize her potential."

"There's no need to be so serious..."

Lin Xiao patted the girl's shoulder and asked her to relax a little. "Although Anchorage is indeed very powerful, our port area is not short of combat power, so there is no need to rush."

"I understand, Commander..."

While chatting with Baltimore, Lin Xiao took her and a group of ship girls who were going to class to the training ground.

Because of this unexpected reunion, a lot of time was wasted. If we don’t hurry up, class will start soon.

After a brief communication with the academy instructors at the training ground, Baltimore naturally became a temporary heavy cruiser instructor. After that, Lin Xiao would naturally go to Wales to handle the relevant procedures, so that Baltimore could also hold a position in the academy and get a salary.

You know, the salary of the tutors in the college is quite generous, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of yuan per month. It may be a drop in the bucket for the development of the port area, but for a rookie like Lin Xiao who doesn't even have a port area now, it is still a lot of money. At least it can supplement the family expenses and he doesn't have to be stingy when buying food for his children.

After all, the port area is not rich at all now, so it is better to save some money. The problems we are facing now require money to solve...
