Revisiting Azur Lane

It’s not that he was worried that Yudachi couldn’t beat Yukikaze, but he was worried that Yukikaze would be killed by Yudachi with one shot. The setting of the meta ship was too mysterious, and he didn’t want Yudachi to suffer.

His method of regulating his physical body was very effective. It activated Yudachi's competitive mentality, and he hugged his arm and made faces at Xuefeng, which made Xuefeng so angry that his eyes widened and he turned around and walked away.

"You guys."

Zhou He, the middleman, was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He never thought that he would become a part of Yuudachi's show-off. He felt a little helpless at first, but when he turned his eyes, he found Zuikaku who was watching the show and laughing. He immediately thought of happy things and revealed a subtle smile.

"Eh! Commander, please don't be like this. Can't I just stop laughing?"

When Ruihe found that Zhou He was staring at him, his hair stood on end. He quickly waved his hands and covered his mouth.

However, everything was in vain. Zhou He had already arranged everything in his mind. Facing the more than ten members who had not yet dispersed, he pointed to the sky with one hand and smiled, "Rest today, go out to explore tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow I will hold a 'fishing competition'. Everyone in the port area must participate. Whichever camp catches the most fish by nightfall will be given a new optional building by me."

"Fishing competition? Optional new buildings?"

This term is unfamiliar to most of the KanColles, and only a few people at the scene know about this sport, but! Their focus soon fell on the following keywords:

"Can the optional buildings be made to the same level as those on the Iron Blood side?"

Because Hood's eyes fell on Jinqi, the latter asked sensibly, to which Zhou He nodded in affirmation, and directly looked at Hood, skipping the middleman: "Okay, if you win, you can choose a royal manor of the same size."

Ms. Hood fell into deep thought. This reward was very precious to her, and even more so to others. A certain sister of the Fifth Air Combat Team, who had always emphasized that her sister must not reveal her past work since she joined the port area, raised her hand and said, "Commander, since you can choose a big house, can I choose a small one?"

"That's for sure. As long as you win, it's up to you to choose."

Zhou He agreed readily. He now had three furniture boxes in his hand. Originally, he planned to wait until the need arose before choosing a suitable building to place them. But then, considering that his own prosperity was linked to the attractiveness of the meta ship girl, he decided to use two of them after careful consideration.

The champion camp of this fishing competition will use one, and with the rewards, there is no need to worry about too many people not participating - there will be a chance to continue next year, and by then his resources will definitely be abundant.

As for why it is a fishing competition and not other competitions?

He could only say that since Zuikaku didn't want Shokaku to know about his dark history as a fisherman, he would create an activity that would allow Zuikaku to fish with peace of mind!

Of course, the main reason was that he wanted to get some seafood and put it in the refrigerator before it completely cooled down, so that when he wanted to eat it, he wouldn't have to spend money to buy it.

He believed in the system that the port area would be covered with snow when winter came!

Chapter 148 No one can resist a cute dog

After announcing the activity at the dock, Zhou He turned around and went to the workshop where the Constructor's ship equipment was being dismantled. In just a short while, the outer shell armor of the Constructor's ship equipment had been dismantled by Mingshi and Lingmin. At this time, the two of them gathered together to point fingers at the internal structure and wiring of the aircraft.

"Research is not like playing games. How can you get results so quickly?"

Zhou He stood at the door and looked, muttering to himself to suppress his curiosity about the capabilities of the Siren model. He left the workshop with his hands behind his back and followed the road to the stairs connecting the port building area and the lawn. He looked along the stairs to the end, which was a high mountain with not very dense green plants.

The address of this port area is surrounded by mountains. Under normal circumstances, these mountains serve as a shield and only require some military buildings. However, this side of the port will not be discovered by the enemy and the battle cannot be brought here, so these mountains can be transformed as an extension of the port area.

For example, here, he plans to build the amusement park, which is expected to be about five or six meters away from the steps under his feet, and a road will be used to separate the construction area of ​​the ship port and the amusement park. When he has money in the future, he will rebuild this construction area and use it as housing or flatten it to use as a sports venue. In short, it is impossible to leave it empty. In the future, his family will have at least 600 people. Taking into account the mobility, everyone must have at least three residences in various parts of the island.

“Isn’t that too extravagant?”

Zhou He examined his estimated plan, but soon put it out of his mind. The island was so big that he could just buy a house near the command building to live there. However, his port area was not a base for workers, so why make it so compact?

He'll be here all his life anyway, so wouldn't it be a good way to kill time by spending ten or eight years transforming the entire port area?

"Really. I can see the end of the days at a glance."

Zhou He grinned. It felt really great to build his own home.

He felt good here, but it felt very strange to others who noticed it. For example, Montpellier, who was practicing dribbling with his elder sister on the flat road, saw Zhou He grinning to himself from a distance. He couldn't help but stop and whispered to Cleveland: "Sister, is the commander's mental state unstable?"

"Yeah, that's normal. Usually in this situation, the commander is very happy because he has come up with a good idea."

Cleveland has been following Zhou He for quite a long time. She used to see Zhou He smile after thinking (being in a daze). She was a little surprised at first, but later she realized that Zhou He's reaction was a reflection of his strong spirit. He was thinking positively all the time and his emotional state was extremely stable.

"is it?"

Montpellier nodded when he heard that and looked at Zhou He again. The latter had restrained his smile, and after noticing their gazes, he waved at the two of them, looking perfectly normal.

……

Although Zhou He did not specifically promote it, the news of the foreign exploration and fishing competition quickly spread within the port area through word of mouth.

External exploration has become the normal mode of action for the port area, but the latter competition has attracted more attention: as a ship girl, even if many people have never seen what a fishing boat looks like, they also know the general situation. This behavior of sending warships to fish has caused Zhou He to receive a lot of complaints.

But despite all the complaints, there are actually many people who are as curious about this new thing as Cleveland, and there are also many people who, like Zuikaku, are not very willing to catch fish, but out of a competitive spirit, they are also prepared to participate and see how it goes: for example, Kaga.

Since this was a faction competition, discussions on this issue were conducted within the faction itself, and even though the event hadn't even started yet, there was already a vague atmosphere of competition within the port area.

Zhou He had dinner in the restaurant and chatted with Xianghe about the situation of the Siren Base in the West Fourth District. After returning to the command building, he felt that the atmosphere was not right. There were fewer people than usual, which was not a big deal. Several small groups that usually played together were also separated. After asking, he found out that they were discussing "tactics" and conducting confidential operations to prevent intelligence leaks.

"You guys, you can compete as much as you want, but don't forget that you have a long journey tomorrow, so remember to go to bed early."

This was the first time that Zhou He felt that his own ship girl was particularly active, but it was he who proposed the competition, and he felt very good about everyone's positive response - but he might have to be careful afterwards, so as not to create a sense of confrontation between the camps because of this entertainment project.

As the organizer, Zhou He did not interfere with any camp's ideas. He just gave a few instructions and went upstairs to take a shower and go to bed.

"commander."

At the entrance to the second floor, Zhou He met Jean Bart, who was leaning against the wall with his arms folded across his chest. His long legs alone blocked Zhou He's way.

“…I’m listening.”

Zhou He took a look and saw that Jean Bart usually wore tight clothes. Even though there was a big temperature difference between day and night, he still wore hot pants that just covered his thighs, so that he could see Jean Bart's perfectly trained long legs.

Although I was blocked, I felt like I had earned something, which made me very distressed.

Without noticing Zhou He's thoughts, Jean Bart put down his legs that were resting on the handrail of the stairs, walked to the corner of the stairs and pointed downwards with his finger: "The day after tomorrow's fishing competition, can I choose a group I like to help?"

"Huh? Okay."

Zhou He figured it out immediately after hearing this and nodded: "This activity may not be reasonable for you, Jean Bart, but in the future there will be more... ship girls from the Vichy Church or Free Iris joining. When the time comes, you can officially participate after you have communicated well."

"Oh, there are indeed many unreasonable things in the world, but for me, the things that I can choose based on my own will are reasonable."

Jean Bart raised the corners of her lips, revealing an unfathomable smile. She fixed her eyes on Zhou He: "Commander, do you know much about me and 'us'?"

'The split between the Fleur de Libre and the Vichy Church?'

Zhou He shook his head. Most of the ways he knew about foreign warships were from the intrigues derived from games, and a few were from popular science videos he occasionally saw on the homepage because of big data. He knew more about the major factions such as the Royal Army, Iron Blood, Sakura Empire and White Eagle. He knew very little about the development of the naval fleet of the Sardinian Empire, Free Iris, Vichy Church and even the Northern Alliance, and even the battles in which the country participated.

"Really? That's good too. No, it's very good!"

Bal's eyes moved slightly, and he felt more cheerful. He stood up and patted Zhou He's shoulder with his hand due to the height difference caused by the stairs: "I was worried that you would be nagging, Commander. Now it's just right. Whether it's the Vichy Church or the Free Iris, they are all in the same camp. Even if someone disagrees with this, it's just a fight to see who is more powerful."

"Ahahaha, I actually hope you can resolve this peacefully."

Zhou He laughed dryly, not understanding how he had suddenly gained Jean Bart's approval, but it didn't matter. There would definitely be conflicts between the two camps. At worst, he could just let Free Iris and the Vichy Church be separated, and then put two churches there to see who could convince whom better.

Moreover, by the time the two camps have enough personnel to fight each other, he, as the commander, can almost retire. It is not a problem that he needs to worry about now.

"Of course, I will convince them."

Made Barr smile without any smile.

After a conversation, Zhou He finally got past Jean Bart. However, when he was going up to the third floor, he suddenly thought of something and turned back and knocked on the door of a room.

"..."

After waiting in silence, the door opened from the inside, and Kursk, wearing a single ponytail, appeared in front of Zhou He. She nodded at him and turned sideways: "Come in."

"excuse me."

When Zhou He walked into the room, a gust of cold wind blew towards him, which made him feel refreshed. He turned around and found that Kursk had not closed the window and the temperature in the room was not very high.

"Are there any new tasks that require my assistance?"

Kursk gave the only chair to Zhou He and sat by the window where the quilt was neatly folded. The mechanical dragon tail crossed over the bed, touched the wall and stood up, which made Kursk, who was silent, look extremely cute.

"Well, I plan to continue my exploration tomorrow. Considering the danger of the Siren Base, I hope you can sneak into the White Eagle, that is, Cleveland's team, and provide assistance."

As Zhou He spoke, his eyes passed over Kursk and fell on the windbreaker hanging on the wall.

He wanted to look Kursk in the face while speaking, but his attire was a little too revealing. It seemed that he had just finished exercising and showered, or that he had put on a white velvet robe just because he came over. The groove on the northern hemisphere of his chest was too deep, and he was not confident that he could keep his eyes from looking down while speaking.

But to be honest, Kursk's room is decorated very simply, but very much in his own personality. For example, there are many beautiful stones and wooden tools piled on the table next to him. In addition to the windbreaker hanging on the wall, there are many written notes and hand-drawn drawings. It's a pity that he can't understand the Northern League language, but he can barely make out the drawings. It seems to be a terrain map of the forest and mountains behind the island?

"I see."

Kursk quickly nodded in reply. After several operations by the Siren cadres, she gradually got used to following the team. Usually, they only exchanged combat intelligence, which did not interfere with her thinking.

"Well, there's one other thing..."

Zhou He almost assumed that Kursk would agree, and naturally changed the topic, which was the fishing competition. He didn't know whether Kursk would like this kind of activity, but it was necessary to notify and remind her. As for the camp she belonged to, she could form a team alone, or choose to help people in other camps like Jean Bart did.

"Fishing? At this time... Yeah, I'll take part."

Kursk thought for a moment. She called herself a hunter, not just a land hunter. Finding prey in the sea was also her specialty. The only thing that concerned her was that she usually did not pay attention to the areas near the port that were suitable for fish migration, so it might take some time.

"Thank you."

Zhou He smiled, stood up and thanked Kursk, then reached out and closed the window: "The temperature difference is quite large now, so we should be careful."

"Temperature difference?"

Kursk looked at Zhou He, and after thinking carefully, she really didn't feel any cooling down. As ship girls, they were really very different from the human Zhou He.

She shook her head slightly, and also stood up and sent Zhou He to the door, and put what she learned into practice: "Commander, you should also keep warm. If you feel unwell, remember to rest."

"Ah, I see."

Zhou He smiled and waved to Kursk, saying "see you tomorrow" before turning and leaving.

"..."

Kursk watched Zhou He go upstairs before closing the door and sitting by the window. He tapped the tabletop with his slender fingers, looking thoughtful: "Strange feeling."

……

The next day, outside the foggy window, the sun had not yet risen.

"Yuudachi, you're so warm."

In the bedroom on the third floor, Zhou He, who woke up in a daze, turned sideways and hugged Yuli, who was glowing and hot like a hot water bottle, with one hand. He had forgotten when Yuli got into bed last night and only had a vague memory.

"Ah, the commander is awake already!?"

Yuli, who was pretending to be asleep and waiting for Zhou He to get up first, followed Zhou He's arm and snuggled into his arms with a smile. Although the height difference between them was only about 10 centimeters, Zhou He's figure was able to cover Yuli.

"Ah! Commander, stop tickling me. I'm the most ticklish... Commander?"

However, before Yuli could enjoy the embrace happily, she felt Zhou He tickling her legs, and could not help laughing - then she lost Zhou He's embrace, turned around with some surprise and looked at Zhou He's back as he sat up on the edge of the bed and touched his head with his hand.

"It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy from all the hard work. You should lie down for a while."

At this time, Zhou He had woken up, but was a little dazed. He could only rub his temples and then get up and go into the bathroom to wash his face. It took a while for the temperature to drop. His main consciousness overcame his second brother, and he returned to the bedroom after washing up.

"Is the Commander feeling better?"

As soon as Zhou He entered the room, he saw Yudachi lying on the bed, helping to cover the quilt. The latter saw him coming in and lifted up a corner of the quilt: "Do you want to rest for a while?"

"It's much better."

Zhou He leaned over and pressed down the raised corner of the quilt, and rubbed the little head of Yudachi whose hair was a little messy from sleeping, and smiled: "Yudachi is so cute, if I just look at her a few more times, I will recover immediately even if I get sick."

"Hey hey hey."

Yuli obviously took it seriously, squinting his eyes and showing a silly and cute smile, which in turn made Zhou He squint his eyes again, and he had to stop and find clothes to wear.

"No way."

Zhou He had a headache while getting dressed, and he felt like his will was being broken by desire.

What should I do? Or buy a ring from the Home Store?

Chapter 149 Getting better

"The Promise Ring..."

As he walked towards the office, Zhou He searched the Home Store and saw a wedding ring that looked exactly the same as the one he saw in the game, but the price was an outrageous 60 Home Coins each. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "How expensive!"

He has saved up a lot of Home Coins these days, the amount has exceeded three digits and reached 115. He can afford this ring at a unit price of 60, but the price-performance ratio is really too low. If he saves more, he can buy a house with this price.

Moreover, he had seen other types of precious metal jewelry before, and they were not even a fraction of this ring. This was too exaggerated.

"Could it be that after giving this ring away, it will have the same effect as the oath in the game, raising the upper limit of favorability to 200% and increasing attributes?"

Zhou He muttered to himself, and after hesitating for a while, he decided to buy one to try the effect - but not now.

In the fishing competition the day after tomorrow, the winning team will get a building of their choice. On this basis, he plans to install one or two public buildings in the port area to increase the port area's fashionability. Therefore, the home coin is of great use. Private events such as giving rings cannot compare with the importance of the port area's development.

With the decision made, the active thoughts in his heart gradually calmed down. At the same time, he picked up the sea map he had drawn yesterday from the office and turned to go downstairs. Because it was still quite early, when he passed by the second floor, he met several ship girls who were also going downstairs and was greeted warmly.
