"Because, I want Yorktown...I want you to be by my side."

Du Lin said this in a decisive manner, without any ambiguity.

These short words had infinite power, striking directly into the heart of York City and causing huge waves in its depressed mood.

Volume 209: Chapter A ray of sunshine in the heart

"York City, I need you." Du Lin looked at the beauty in front of him and said in an extremely sincere tone:

"So, please be my secretary ship next week."

"Commander, I'm needed..."

Yorktown placed one hand on his chest and repeated Durin's words in a low voice.

Need... this simple word sounds so beautiful in York City.

When was the last time someone needed me so much? Probably before I got seriously injured.

The former city of York was the pillar in the growth of the port area and was relied upon by Du Lin and others.

But after being seriously injured, Yorktown never attacked again and could only watch his commander and companions fight in silence.

Since then her role has changed, from being needed by everyone to needing everyone.

And now, Du Lin reached out to her again.

But now I am...

Although his heart was beating hard, York City bit his lip and shook his head:

"...Commander, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."

York City looked at his hands:

"You know what? This body... is so fragile now. I feel breathless and painful after just a short while of activity. I feel very tired even though I haven't done anything..."

At this point, York City looked at Du Lin again:

"...Do you really need me like this?"

"Oh, of course." Du Lin nodded without hesitation, his voice as firm as before:

"The port area is now back on track. There aren't many daily affairs. I can handle them all by myself."

"Then why do you let me..."

"Because I want to be with York City."

Du Lin gave the answer directly:

"Even if I can't do anything, just being with York City makes me happy."

As he spoke, Du Lin raised his hand and gently touched York City's cheek. He looked at this extremely familiar face and said softly:

"...So, I need you. I can't imagine how I'll get through the next week without Yorktown."

"Commander..." York City felt her vision blur. She lowered her head and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, wiping away the tears that were not willing to be shed.

"Really? You suddenly said something like this to me... How can I refuse?"

Du Lin smiled and said:

"I'm sorry, I'm such a bad commander. So, please satisfy my little wish."

"This willfulness... is really your style."

York City showed a bright smile:

"Yes, I understand. Although I may not be able to help much, I am willing to serve as the secretary ship."

The moment these words were spoken, the heaviness in York City's heart suddenly eased.

A ray of sunshine shone into my long-depressed heart.

Du Lin opened his eyes slightly, he was fascinated by York City's smile at this moment.

Indeed, it is very beautiful.

"commander?"

York City looked puzzled because Du Lin gave her his little finger at this time.

"This is......"

"Come on, let's make a promise." Du Lin said seriously:

"I will never go back on my promise."

Yorktown was stunned, and then burst out laughing.

"Commander, you're just like a little kid~"

Although he said this, York City still stretched out his little finger and gently hooked it on Dulin's finger.

The two of them shook their fingers gently in sync, indicating the conclusion of the agreement.

While Du Lin and York City made an agreement, two pairs of eyes were staring at this side in the distance.

Enterprise and Bumblebee, who were supposed to be busy with their own affairs, were standing together at this time, looking at Du Lin and his sister Yorktown from afar.

"It looks like it's going well."

Bumblebee put his hands on his waist and said admiringly:

"As expected of a commander, you easily took down my sister."

The corners of Enterprise's mouth curled up slightly. Seeing the smile on York City's face, Enterprise also breathed a sigh of relief:

"It's been a long time... It's been a long time since I saw my sister so happy."

The company could sense that after York City was injured, there was more helplessness and bitterness in her smile.

In the eyes of outsiders, York is still the gentle York.

But as sister cities, Enterprise and Bumblebee can feel York's sadness.

Now, this sadness seems to be dissipating.

And what did all this was...

"As expected, the commander is so handsome."

Bumblebee's eyes became eager. She turned her head to look at Enterprise and said excitedly:

"Why don't we join in? That's right, let's go confess our feelings to the commander right now!"

Bumblebee said as she was about to muster up the courage to step forward, but Enterprise grabbed her back.

My sister is really a cause of worry.

............

Akagi sat on a rock somewhere on the beach to relax.

The oncoming sea breeze made Akagi's hair fly, bringing coolness, but it could not blow away the melancholy in his heart.

Commander, why haven't you come back yet?

Just as Akagi was thinking this, a familiar male voice suddenly came from behind him:

"Ah, Kaga is right, you are here after all."

Without looking back, Akagi knew the owner of the voice.

"commander!"

Akagi turned around quickly and saw Du Lin walking towards him with a smile on his face.

"No need to get up. I also want to enjoy the sea breeze for a while."

Du Lin gently pressed Akagi's shoulders and sat down beside her.

Chi Cheng looked at Du Lin's profile for a long while before saying quietly:

"Two hours, twenty-four minutes, and thirty-eight seconds... Commander, you're out of time."

In Akagi's view, she "borrowed" Du Lin, and the period was agreed to be two hours.

Du Lin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Hey, this is too calculated. It's a bit scary..."

Du Lin didn't expect that Akagi was actually calculating the time. Should I say that Akagi is worthy of being called that? He is always particularly persistent on this issue.

Unable to bear the resentful look in Akagi's eyes, Du Lin cleared his throat, then reached out and put his arm around Akagi's shoulders, and Akagi also skillfully leaned his head on Du Lin's shoulder.

"Sorry, I chatted with Enterprise and the others for a while... Akagi, I kept you waiting."

Hearing Du Lin's words, Chi Cheng's expression turned from gloomy to bright, and finally he chuckled:

"...Since the commander has said so, Akagi will not say anything more."

Du Lin easily obtained Akagi's forgiveness, even though he was the one who broke the promise.

But this is Akagi's love. Facing Du Lin, Akagi, who was ridiculed by Shokaku as a "strict senior", was very tolerant and did not hide his doting on Du Lin.

"But...if the Commander does something to make Akagi sad again, Akagi...will not be so calm."

Akagi said these joking words to Du Lin with a smile, but Du Lin didn't find it funny at all.

It seems like I have to make it up to Akagi tonight.

Volume 210: Chapter : The Glory of the Guard

The celebration of the Opening of the Sea Festival continued and reached a new climax when night fell.

Several bonfires appeared on the beach. These bonfires and the light from the Sea House illuminated the beach. Looking from a high vantage point, the beach looked as bright as a river of stars, forming a sharp contrast with the sea that was gradually shrouded in the night.

The night sea breeze was a little chilly, but it couldn't cool everyone's enthusiasm.

There are a large number of ovens and grills between the bonfires. The ship girls gather together to barbecue, and the sound of clinking glasses is mixed in with their laughter and joy.

Du Lin was holding a drink in his hand and moving among the crowd. Wherever he went, he would be stopped by enthusiastic ship girls and was forced to drink a lot of wine.

There are many ship girls drinking in the port area, and many of them are well versed in fine wine.

But Du Lin strictly prohibited the destroyers from drinking alcohol, so they only had carbonated drinks or fruit juice.

Of course, the concept of "destroyer" here is very vague. There is no way, the ship girls in the port area are really diverse, some destroyers are as simple as children, and some are already little devils.

Moreover, some destroyers have the bodies of girls, but some have the potential to be small monsters hidden inside.

Du Lin had a headache about how to restrain them.

Precisely because one cannot judge a ship girl's mental maturity from her appearance, Durin makes mistakes from time to time.

"That destroyer over there, is that a bar you took? Ah, it turned out to be the Saratoga, sorry sorry~ I was dazzled~~"

Saratoga is the one that Dulin often misidentifies.

The barbecue activity at night lasted for a long time before it ended. After having a very enjoyable day, the ship girls gradually dispersed and returned.

Du Lin also returned to Sakura Empire with Akagi and others.

Along the way, Dafeng complained to Du Lin with tears in her eyes about the "persecution" she suffered from the bluefin tuna. Du Lin could not help but feel pity for Dafeng, so he promised:

"Don't worry, the academy in the harbor will be completed soon, and then the bluefin tuna won't come to torment you."

Establishing an academy is also one of Du Lin's ways to better manage the small boats.

The little ones in the port area only know how to fight, so it is necessary to let them learn knowledge other than fighting.

However, in Du Lin's idea, it would not only be the submarine destroyers who would go to school, but also the mature ship girls could go in to study. After all, there were countless individuals who lacked common sense in the port area.

If he could teach them the correct knowledge, Du Lin would have some free time.

"Commander, please come to Dafeng tonight~~"

Dafeng began to seduce Du Lin, hugging his arm and rubbing it intentionally or unintentionally.

Akagi next to him showed a terrifying smile when he saw this. Although Kaga had no expression on his face, his slightly cold gaze also explained something.

"Sorry, I will go to accompany you tomorrow. I'd better stay at Akagi's place tonight."
