Their perfect commander

"Huh?? Why are you giving me a handkerchief...so weird?" Little Zeppelin's face puffed up slightly, and he stared at Jiang Cheng with red eyes in confusion. Although this person looks normal, he is so weird?

"Wipe your face."

"Hmm!" Little Zeppelin naturally couldn't see the dust on his fair and tender face. He rubbed his face with his little hands, then looked at his hands, which were a little black.

"This...this...um...thank you...um." Her little face turned red, and little Qi Penglin looked at Jiang Cheng's back shyly, thinking that she was the one who was feeling strange.

"It's nothing." Jiang Cheng shook his head and didn't turn around. Instead, he processed the potatoes on the table, peeling them one by one, revealing their tender and juicy skin.

"I... I'm here to help as well, as a way of repaying you, but... you can't tell anyone about my affairs. If you do, hum!!" Little Zeppelin stomped his black silk feet proudly, and his fair and tender face after wiping off the dust looked rosy and extremely cute.

Isn't it just peeling potatoes? She can do it even if she's little Zeppelin!

Little Zeppelin rolled up his sleeves with great enthusiasm.

......

lunch time.

"....Hmm? Hmm..." Karlsruhe picked up a piece of potato with chopsticks, and his deep blue eyes looked at the shapeless potato carefully.

"What's wrong? Karlsruhe?" Cologne pushed the frame of his glasses on his nose and looked at Karlsruhe with a serious face.

Karlsruhe first looked around, then spoke in a low voice.

"Sister, look at this potato. Does it look like the one the commander peeled? No...it seems even less tender than the one the commander peeled." As Korsruhe spoke, he glanced at the little Zeppelin sitting next to Jiang Cheng, with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Hmm!" Little Zeppelin turned his blushing face away angrily, and the corners of his rosy lips were stained with the tempting soup.

Originally, she wanted to leave after helping, but she failed to help and ended up being the one who was being helped. It was Jiang Cheng who took care of it for her.

Wanting to help more, Jiang Cheng asked her to help with the food tasting.

So now she's here.

But!! But!! One thing I have to say is that the food cooked by Jiangcheng is really delicious... much better than the food in Tiexue Canteen!

But her little Zeppelin was not a boat that could not resist temptation.

"Well, I'm done...give me another bowl..." little Zeppelin said in a low voice, his little face blushing.

She just wasn't full.

"Okay." Jiang Cheng naturally picked up little Qippin's bowl and served her another bowl, a full bowl.

"Thank you..." Little Zeppelin's voice became even lower, but she still honestly picked up the small spoon.

The new face of little Zeppelin made the other children in the orphanage feel a little novel, but they just glanced at him curiously, without looking at him for long and saying anything.

After all, the dean aunt taught them not to talk about others behind their backs, but of course it is okay to talk about the dean aunt~~

"I...I won't eat for nothing, I can also help!" Little Zeppelin said seriously while holding up his steamed bun.

Jiang Cheng just smiled and said nothing, but Karlsruhe became interested.

"So what can little Zeppelin do? Can you tell me, sister?"

"Humph! I know math and physics!! They're really hard!"

"Huh?" Karlsruhe was stunned. She thought little Zeppelin would say something about building blocks or something, but she didn't expect him to come up with a bomb right away.

"I have won many awards! If you don't believe me, you can check it with the communicator!" The shyness on little Zeppelin's face has turned into pride!

"Then let me check..." Karlsruhe was also intimidated by little Zeppelin's aura. He picked up the communicator and started checking. A lot of information popped up.

Awards of all sizes and photos of little Zeppelin appeared on the communicator screen. Karlsruhe was stunned for a moment, and the way he looked at little Zeppelin changed.

This little guy...seems to be smarter than her? ?

"Hehe...Okay, you are indeed very good, but I...my sister also knows math and physics, hehe~~" Karlsruhe laughed again. She was optimistic and always had a smile on her face.

"But knowing these won't help much..." Karlsruhe thought about the application of mathematics and physics in life, and it seemed that he couldn't help much in this orphanage...

"Huh!! I...I can..." Little Zeppelin was also stunned. What could she do? ?

Suddenly her eyes moved to the children at another table, and at that moment the figures of Ron and Zeppelin appeared in her mind.

At that moment, little Zeppelin found his life goal in sailing!

"I can teach them math and physics!!" Little Zeppelin stood up and looked at the children whose names were called at another table.

"What is mathematics...and what is physics??"

"Stupid, math counts, the dean taught us, you forgot... As for physics... it sounds very impressive..."

The children who were eating immediately started to chatter and discuss, not knowing what horror they were about to face...

"Okay." Cologne nodded and agreed to little Zeppelin.

.....

At the Iron Blood headquarters, Hutten knocked on the door of Bismarck's office.

.....

11. Joint Exercises

It didn't take long before the door opened, but the person who opened the door made Hu Teng stunned for a moment.

"?~~You must be the iron-blooded Hu Teng~~You look good, we can have a big fight if we have a chance?~~Oh, yeah~~I almost forgot to introduce myself~~I am..."

"You are White Eagle's New Jersey, the Iowa-class battleship - New Jersey." Hu Teng calmly looked at the smiling girl in front of him. Her star-blue eyes showed confidence, and her delicate face made it difficult to look away. She was extremely attractive. Of course, Hu Teng was not among those who were attracted.

But New Jersey seemed quite familiar. He immediately grasped Hu Teng's cold hand with his fair and tender hand and pulled him into the room.

"I didn't expect Hu Teng still remembered me. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Come in. It's okay. Just treat it as you are in Iron Blood. Don't be too nervous." New Jersey seemed to have forgotten that he was the guest, but it was not a big problem and it was very much in line with White Eagle's wishes.

Hu Teng's expression rarely changed, probably because New Jersey's words caught him off guard.

She looked at New Jersey. This person might be someone whose personality she couldn't handle, just like Blücher, whose personality was really too unsolvable.

"Haha, Miss New Jersey is still as humorous and witty as ever." Frederick the Great sat on the sofa, her beautiful legs in black stockings gently put together, and the iron-blooded military uniform wrapped around her plump stern.

Her long black hair covered half of her face, revealing the signature gentle smile of the Madonna.

"Miss Frederick the Great is also very funny~~" New Jersey is not afraid of Frederick the Great. After all, she is the largest and strongest Black Dragon of White Eagle - New Jersey~~

But she also discovered something unusual about Frederick the Great, as if there was something extra.

"Hu Teng, you are here, please sit down. We have something to discuss." Bismarck motioned Hu Teng to sit down first. Hu Teng nodded and put Jiang Cheng's affairs aside for the time being.

"But it's a big deal~~Hehe~~" The lively child's voice interrupted and attracted Hu Teng's attention. Only then did she realize that there was another person in the room.

Her pink hair was tied into cute twin ponytails, her fair face was full of energy, and her pair of purple eyes seemed to be twinkling with little stars. Of course, the most notable feature was the armor on her chest that was not as good as that of a first-grade student. While Hu Teng was still wondering whether she was the destroyer, she spoke again.

"Hehe~~Hu Teng must know Saratoga~~Hehe Saratoga has a great reputation as well~~" Saratoga straightened the steel plate with a bright smile on her face.

".... Maybe..." Although Hu Teng was not good at lying, looking at Xiao Jiajia's childlike expectant smile reminded her of the U-series lolita, so she nodded. But thinking about it carefully, the U-series lolita didn't seem to be that small...

Is it really an aircraft carrier?

Of course, Hu Teng would not show these doubts.

"Hehe~~" Saratoga grinned, as happy as a little file.

"Then let's continue with the topic of joint exercises."

......

An hour later, Saratoga hopped away holding New Jersey's hand.

"Joint exercises. This is not a suitable time for exercises." Hutten looked at Bismarck, as if waiting for Bismarck's answer.

"The exercise is just a cover. The real target is Jiang Cheng. You have already met Jiang Cheng." Bismarck had actually discovered Jiang Cheng's whereabouts a long time ago. Tiexue's efficiency has always been very high.

"Has Jiang Cheng been found? When?" Hu Teng did not answer Bismarck's question, but asked another question. With Bismarck's efficiency, since Jiang Cheng had been found, he would probably have been put on the operating table by now, but now Jiang Cheng is intact...

"It was just a few days ago. It doesn't matter anymore. Now that we've met, do you have anything to say, Hu Teng?"

"Did he say anything to you, Hu Teng?" Frederick the Great on the side had a bit of heat in her eyes. When she mentioned Jiang Cheng, she seemed like a different person.

"He also lost his memory, and maybe he forgot about me." Hu Teng's expression seemed a little complicated as he recalled the conversation with Jiang Cheng.

"Is that so... Further confirmation is needed. Jiang Cheng has lost his memory, and so have you. The ship girls of Sakura Empire have also lost their memories... We have all forgotten everything..." Bismarck already had the answer in his heart, but the answer was no longer important. What was important was Jiang Cheng.

As long as the goal is achieved, the tortuous process will be of no value.

"Will that child still remember me..." Frederick the Great said in a low voice, with a barely perceptible sadness appearing on his beautiful face. Fortunately, neither Bismarck nor Hutten noticed it at this time.

"The plan for Jiangcheng needs to be changed. What do you think, Frederick the Great?" Bismarck looked at Frederick the Great. Since Frederick the Great has not forgotten Jiangcheng, why not this be a new entry point.

"If possible, try to get Jiang Cheng to serve our Iron Blood voluntarily. Since he has lost his memory, give him a new memory." From the beginning to the end, Bismarck only regarded Jiang Cheng as a tool to be used. Whether he had lost his memory or not, he was just a tool.

And she would not have the slightest mercy on her tools.

"We should pay attention to the intervention of White Eagle and Donghuang's tricks. The Northern Alliance has also noticed Jiangcheng. I wonder if the Royal Family and Sakura Empire will intervene... hehe..."

"Donghuang?"

"Jiang Cheng's friend from the orphanage, the commander of Muran Donghuang, is now in charge of a long-abandoned orphanage in Tiexue. Coincidentally, Jiang Cheng met this person on the first day he arrived at Tiexue. Do you think this is a coincidence? Hu Teng?"

"It really doesn't seem like a coincidence, so what is Donghuang's purpose? Jiang Cheng has spent seventeen years in Donghuang, what have they done to Jiang Cheng..." Hu Teng also fell into deep thought.

You know, even if Jiang Cheng is in Donghuang, they still got Jiang Cheng's blood, so what did the Donghuang ship girl do to Jiang Cheng? ?

Even if Donghuang really did nothing, Tiexue did it.

Tiexue often assumes the greatest malice towards others. Maybe it means there are no good people in this world?

"White Eagle, Northern Alliance, Donghuang... are all for Jiangcheng. It's getting more and more interesting." A strange light flashed in Frederick the Great's dark golden eyes.

They all came to seize Jiangcheng... hehe...

But she will never give them a chance!!

That child can only be hers!

12. Undercurrent

There were footsteps in the corridor.

Frederick the Great and Hutten walked side by side. Neither of them looked at each other, but their pace was surprisingly consistent, probably a tacit understanding that had been established over the years.

Suddenly, Hutten stopped, stood there and looked at Frederick the Great, and Frederick the Great also stopped.

The two people's eyes intertwined.

"Maybe I have asked this question, but I should have forgotten it. Now I'll ask it again." Jiang Cheng's appearance appeared in Hu Teng's mind, with clear yet elusive eyes and a pure smile. Everything about the boy seemed beautiful, although this beauty was only on the surface.

"What do you think of Jiang Cheng, or is Jiang Cheng also a tool in your eyes?"

Hu Teng had to admit that she once treated Jiang Cheng as a tool, a tool to provide blood. At least this was the fact on the surface. She didn't know what memory she had lost.

"..." Frederick the Great looked at Hutten, and at that moment she was a little hesitant.

Her faith didn't seem so firm, and she was confused for a moment.

From the very beginning she just treated him as a tool, a pitiful tool, giving him a little sympathy, but still a tool in essence.

Later, the boundaries began to blur, and she didn't know since when she started treating him as a child, a poor and unloved child.

Why is this happening... She doesn't understand the changes in herself.

"He is...a child..." Frederick the Great had an indescribable emotion on his face. His white and tender hands were lightly placed on his chest. His heart was beating very fast, not knowing whether it was because of Jiang Cheng or because of Hu Teng's problem.

"You can't change yourself, and you can't change Bismarck. Ship girls are ship girls, and humans are humans. You know this better than anyone else." After saying this, Hutten left, leaving Frederick the Great alone in the empty corridor.

Frederick the Great's heart was in extreme conflict. She didn't understand how her affection or inexplicable "love" for Jiang Cheng came about.

She naturally understood Jiang Cheng's fate and outcome, but she always tried to deceive herself.

"Why does it hurt here?" Frederick the Great placed his hands on his chest. The sea breeze blew her hair in front of her forehead, and her beautiful face looked lonely and sad.
