With the efforts of the four people, it was quickly cleaned up.

"Haha, Dafeng, you've worked hard." Akagi smiled at Dafeng:

"It's time for me and the commander. It's getting late, you should go back."

At this moment Akagi acted like the hostess, and in fact this was indeed her residence.

Akagi wants to drive Taihou back so that he can spend the night alone with the commander.

"Senior Chicheng seems to have some misunderstandings." Dafeng's eyes flickered, she hugged Du Lin's arm and smiled softly:

"Since the commander is staying here, I will also stay here tonight."

"you......"

Akagi's smile disappeared, and the nine big tails behind him danced wildly, with a powerful aura bursting out from his body.

This terrifying aura, which was enough to stop a child from crying, had no effect on Dafeng.

"Commander~~" Da Feng acted coquettishly towards Du Lin, her voice was particularly gentle:

"Da Feng wants to stay here to take care of the commander at night~~"

This was almost an obvious provocation that made Akagi grit his teeth.

Du Lin quickly advised:

"Akagi, just... let Taihou stay. You see, she has made concessions before, so can you..."

Finally, under Du Lin's persuasion, Akagi nodded reluctantly and agreed to let Dafeng stay overnight.

Volume 222: Chapter : Embrace and Tolerance

As the night deepened, Du Lin drank freshly brewed tea in the guest room. The slightly bitter taste just relieved the greasy feeling after eating a lot of fish and meat.

Akagi sat opposite him, while Taihou and Kaga were nowhere to be seen.

The sound of water splashing came from the bathroom separated by a wall. The missing Daiho and Kaga were taking a bath.

The space in the bathroom was limited, so Du Lin and Akagi were at the back.

Of course, this was just a superficial reason. In fact, Du Lin and Akagi needed a chance to be alone to talk about something.

Talk about the Celestial City.

Du Lin told Chi Cheng about what happened today when he met Tian Cheng. After hearing what Du Lin said, Chi Cheng's eyes dimmed a little:

"...My sister's condition has worsened again."

"Worsenness" is too exaggerated, but the healing effect of the sacred tree is indeed getting worse." Du Lin clearly remembered what Nagato said. At the beginning, Amagi could stay healthy for more than a month after treatment, but now it can only last less than a week.

This decline is extremely alarming.

Ultimately, not even the magical effects of the sacred tree could completely cure the problems of Tiancheng.

Du Lin put down the cup and looked towards Akagi:

"Akagi, you don't seem surprised?"

Akagi's performance was much calmer than Du Lin had expected. He was initially worried that Akagi would react violently after learning about the situation.

"Haha, thank you for your concern." Akagi smiled, but this time the smile was more bitter:

"I'm mentally prepared for Sister Tiancheng's situation."

As he spoke, Akagi stood up and walked to the corridor outside the house. A gust of night wind blew, and the wind chimes hanging on the corridor swayed, making clear and ethereal sounds.

Looking at Akagi like this, Du Lin felt an indescribable pain.

"Commander, do you know?" Akagi said softly:

"Sister Tiancheng...seems to have already prepared for the worst. In order to prevent me from being too sad, she has been deliberately keeping a distance from me for a long time."

Akagi said what Amagi said to her at that time:

"If you don't want to hurt someone, stay away from them."

Du Lin savored these words carefully, and he suddenly understood why Tiancheng had been "cold" to him during this period of time.

"So that's it..."

After understanding all this, Du Lin felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

It's a mixture of sadness, relief, and...anger.

Akagi turned around and gave Du Lin a bitter smile:

"So, Commander, you must not do anything dangerous. Even if it's for my sister...she won't agree."

Akagi did not ask Du Lin what happened in the laboratory because she already had a vague guess.

With Du Lin's gentleness, how could he do nothing when faced with his sister and the difficulties?

"Akagi..."

Du Lin stood up and walked to Akagi and hugged her gently.

Du Lin's embrace completely broke the last bit of Chi Cheng's strength. She buried her head in Du Lin's arms, holding Du Lin's clothes tightly with both hands:

"Commander, what will happen to my sister?"

"I don't want to lose my sister...but I don't want to see you take risks because of this..."

When he said this, Akagi's voice trembled slightly.

This fearless Sakura Empire ship girl showed fear for the first time in front of Durin.

The source of all this is the two people she loves most.

Feeling the sobbing and trembling in his arms, Du Lin's heart ached slightly.

Now that he understood everything, he no longer had any hesitation and was even more convinced that his previous choices and decisions were correct.

"Akagi..." Du Lin hugged the other person tightly:

"Don't worry, I will make Amagi healthy again. And...I will never do anything stupid that will make you sad."

"Commander..." Akagi looked up into Durin's eyes:

"Is this kind of thing really possible?"

Akagi did not doubt Du Lin's ability, but she was not a naive person.

There are very few things in this world that can have the best of both worlds.

Both my sister and Du Lin are people that Akagi values.

Akagi was terrified of losing them both at the same time.

Facing Akagi's hesitation, Du Lin smiled:

"When have I ever lied to Akagi? Since I said it, I will definitely make it come true."

After saying that, Du Lin turned his head and looked at the night sky. It was already midsummer now, and even the night wind blowing on his face would make him feel a little stuffy.

"Akagi, let's go for a walk on the mountain behind when the weather cools down." Du Lin turned around and faced Akagi again:

"Of course, it's not just you and me. Let's call Amagi too when the time comes. We can go on a picnic together."

"Hehe, Amagi will definitely be amazed at your cooking skills. I really want to see the surprised expression of the Sakura Empire's military strategist who has planned everything."

Du Lin's brilliant smile was like a shooting star in the dark night, illuminating Akagi's dark heart at that moment.

"Commander...you always..."

Tears rolled down and wet Akagi's cheeks, but Akagi smiled.

Because she knew that Du Lin would never lie, at least not on this kind of issue.

Du Lin reached out and gently wiped away the tears on her face, then he lowered his head slightly.

Almost at the same time, Akagi closed her eyes and offered her red lips.

The two people hugging each other did not notice that the sound of flowing water had stopped long ago.

In the corridor separated by a door, Daiho and Kaga were wrapped in bath towels, with water stains on their hair and skin.

"Tsk, it won't be long before Senior Akagi attacks the Commander."

Dafeng bit her lips lightly, looking resentful.

Kaga folded his arms and said softly:

"You...are not going to stop it?"

Da Feng looked through the gap at the two people hugging each other in the room without saying a word. After a moment, she said faintly:

"Akagi-senpai, you also have moments of weakness... As a considerate junior, just pretend you didn't see anything for now."

Kaga was a little surprised:

"...Dafeng, you are more mature than I thought."

"Hehe~" Dafeng turned around and chuckled:

"Senior Kaga, are you pretending to be calm now?"

Kaga did not comment on this.

The two of them had been eavesdropping since just now, and although it was not their intention, they did hear what Du Lin and Akagi had just said.

Has Senior Tiancheng's health become so bad?

Kaga felt very complicated and worried.

If Tiancheng Senior has an accident, then Akagi will...

Thinking of this, Kaga shook her head. She believed that Du Lin could solve this problem.

"Okay, let's go back to the bathroom."

Dafeng urged softly:

"I'm going to pretend I just came out of the bathroom later."

Volume 223: Chapter : Night Raid of Three

"call......"

Du Lin walked out of the bathroom and headed towards his bedroom, wiping the remaining water on his hair with the towel in his hand.

He was the last one to take a bath. He had declined Akagi's offer to bathe with him and insisted on going to the bathroom by himself.

"If you can't even take a shower by yourself, how can you save Amagi?"

This kind of nonsense reason would have no effect under normal circumstances, but Akagi was just moved to tears by Du Lin's words and actions, and these words actually had a miraculous effect. Akagi obediently went to the bathroom alone.

This greatly surprised Du Lin.

Du Lin returned to his room humming a tune.

Standing in front of the door, Du Lin took a deep breath, and with a desperate mentality, he pushed the door open, and what came into his eyes was the already made, empty bed.

Looking around, there was no one else in the huge room.

With his heart at ease, Du Lin raised the corners of his mouth.

Tonight, I can finally have a good sleep!

"Very good!!"

Du Lin threw the towel away and then threw himself onto the mattress.

"Pfft!"

Falling heavily on the soft mattress, Du Lin squinted his eyes happily.

"Ah... How many days have passed... How many days has no one slept?"

Du Lin rolled back and forth on the mattress, enjoying this space that belonged to him alone.

Ever since the secretary ship rotation system came into effect, Du Lin has had almost no time of his own.

Almost every ship girl on duty wanted to have something happen with Durin, either openly or secretly. If the Royal, Eastern Glory, and Iron Blood were still a little reserved before, then the girls of the Sakura Empire now don't even want the last bit of fig leaf.
