How come I, who has the physique of a succubus, was pushed back by the ship girl?

"Sometimes, meeting is fate. The saying that there is no acquaintance without fighting is not wrong. In just one afternoon, everyone and I have become close friends."

"Even before we were about to part, they asked me out for a few drinks, but I turned them down."

"Why did you turn it down then? Someone invited you to drink, isn't that good?"

"Besides, she is the shipgirl you care about the most..."

As for the rest of the sentence, the Cleaner almost held it in his mouth and said it, hiding it in the passing wind, so Zhou Xuan couldn't hear it.

He suddenly fell silent, put away his smile, and turned his face into a serious one, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, I heard him speak.

“As for why, I actually forgot…”

"I can't really explain it. Maybe I was just tired. After the training was over and the group was disbanded, I just wanted to come back."

From the literal meaning, this is just a very normal answer without any personal bias.

But she didn't know why, or what she imagined, her heart began to tremble violently as if it had been hit by a heavy punch.

After a day, she had had enough of staying in this room with no one else in it.

She was bored to death, and only at this moment could she truly feel that her energy and blood began to boil and beat.

She was thinking, since the world Zhou Xuan described was so beautiful, she might as well go with him to see it.

Even if, in the end, everything he said seemed so brilliant because of his personal filter, it was still better than her withering away alone in this lonely room.

Thinking of this, the Cleaner told his plan as he looked up at the young man's face in the candlelight.

"You said you wanted to go on patrol with me?"

"Well, I'm free anyway, so why not go with you for a walk and have a look? It's always a good idea." The Clearer answered decisively.

"But patrolling is only a small part of the mission. There are other tasks, big and small, after that. You might even be asked to do some hoeing work. Can you really accept that?"

"I guess so..."

"Don't you want to reconsider it? Didn't you tell me that you value dignity the most?"

"Think twice before you act. After all, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back."

It was not Zhou Xuan's fault for being so talkative. Indeed, judging from the character displayed by the girl and the intelligence he had known about her in the past, the Eliminator did not seem like the type who would do such a thing.

The reason why he confirmed it again and again was because there is no joking in the military. Once a decision is made, it will be too late to regret it.

It can be said that she was taken into consideration from all aspects, but the Clearer did not appreciate it.

Finally getting annoyed by the noise, she quickly leaned forward and pushed him hard.

"Ah, are you annoying? Now that I have made a decision, I will not change it."

"Besides, if we talk about dignity, do I still have it now?"

"Under your abuse, my dignity as a siren has long been thrown away. I don't care about this anymore."

"Whether you agree or not, just give me a straight answer!"

Emotional outbursts like this have happened many times while I've been with the Clearers.

But unlike before, this time he was most moved by the unwavering choice of the person in front of him.

Having been in the love field for a long time, Zhou Xuan is certainly not a dull person.

When he calmed down and savored it carefully, he could sense the subtle girlish affection hidden in her request.

It was the same feeling as that between him and his ship girl, an instinctive feeling that centered on him. Zhou Xuan understood it in his heart and responded immediately.

He first straightened his body that had been knocked down by the purgers, then stretched out his hand across the table.

After his arms were around the slender waist of the Cleaner, he pulled back and skillfully held her in his arms.

"I agree to your request. I will explain your idea to Akagi."

"To be honest, I am very pleased that you have changed like this, but I am very unhappy with your tone just now."

"So rewards and punishments are clearly defined. Now it's time to... enforce the family rules~"

Chapter 277: The girl talks but doesn’t act

Rewards and punishments have always been clear, and after another night of spring breeze, Zhou Xuan began to help the cleaners to communicate.

He failed to meet Akagi the first time, and the second time he heard that she was busy, so Zhou Xuan met Kaga, Akagi's sister.

Being in such a class with highly concentrated power, the process of joining the team is not complicated.

After getting permission from Kaga, the Cleaner changed into simple attire in line with the style of the Sakura Empire and set off with Zhou Xuan.

As a member of the Ayanami team, the Cleaner is responsible for the same work as Zhou Xuan.

Patrolling, doing odd jobs, training, rotating shifts...it's like this today, and it will be the same tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Although it seems complicated, each day is actually quite dull, and the days pass by with the two of them chatting and laughing together.

The only thing that brought ups and downs to her dull life was probably the matter concerning Zhou Xuan.

Since she has made the decision to travel with Zhou Xuan, it is inevitable that she will have to endure other people's coveting of him again and again.

But all living things have a limit to what they can endure, and even sirens are no exception.

It would be fine once or twice, but if she had to watch Zhou Xuan lingering among the flowers every day, she felt that sooner or later she would be overloaded and exceed her limit.

As a Siren, there is no such thing as blood pressure for the Cleaner, but on the other hand, how could she have thought of it.

From the initial period of playing badly to the few days of waiting for good news, the relationship between them became so close when they were not with Zhou Xuan.

With their quarrels, laughter and conversations, the compatibility they displayed was far greater than that of the two people who met each other every night. How could she not feel jealous?

She could no longer bear it and wait, and finally, when Yudachi and others were about to take action, she rushed forward.

He squeezed himself in between several people, preventing Ayanami Yuri and others from having physical or even eye contact with Zhou Xuan.

"Hey! You rude fellow! I'm still here! You are not allowed to do such presumptuous behavior in front of me!"

"Zhou Xuan is mine, he belongs to me alone. If you want to get close to him, you have to get my consent!"

The habit has become natural. For Yuli and others who are in the lead, getting close to Zhou Xuan has become a major reaction in their instinct.

At this moment, a man suddenly appeared from the middle of the road and shamelessly asked them to stop their actions and give up their plans. Of course, this was a bit idealistic.

So, except for Ayanami at the end, the three little ones looked at each other, their eyes changing from confusion to clarity, and finally to a sudden flash of inspiration.

They all nodded in unison and asked Shi Yu, the most astute among them, to go and ask for an explanation.

Wait until she gets closer.

"Isn't this right? Miss Cleaner, you should know that Zhou Xuan has joined our team since the first day. He is one of our own, and so are you."

"The hierarchy of the Sakura Empire is strict, and superiors have absolute leadership over their subordinates."

"After you join, no matter what happened in the past, today you will be under the auspices of your superior, the Daimyo, and His Majesty. You must not act on your own."

This is equivalent to directly denying Zhou Xuan's past and confirming her statement.

According to her analysis, doesn't this mean that Zhou Xuan, as a low-level samurai, will become a plaything for all the ship girls to play with at will in the future?

How could this be!

It seemed that he had imagined such serious consequences. The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. The Cleaner almost bit his back teeth off.

She suddenly shook her head repeatedly and spoke out of thin air.

"No, this can't happen! I will never allow such a thing!"

"I am a Siren! A high-level Siren from the experimental institute! I am the lord of the ice and snow world, the most powerful being in this world! I will never allow you to do anything wrong to Zhou Xuan!"

The words were radical and the actions were violent. As he spoke, the purger, who was facing a formidable enemy, opened his arms and walked back, sticking closely to Zhou Xuan like a hen protecting her chicks.

At least that's what the four of them saw. The mysterious purger in front of them didn't look like a master with great supernatural powers.

Even at this moment she was recounting the glorious history of the past, about how one strike pierced through the stars and one shot destroyed the world.

Shi Yu and others didn't care about things like this.

After all, no matter how smart they are, they are just children at heart. After spending these few days together, they still feel...

The Clearer is a humorous person just like Zhou Xuan, and you can just laugh off the nonsense she says.

Later, when Shi Yu wanted to step over her to approach Zhou Xuan but was stopped, they saw with their own eyes the blue flames flashing from her eyes, and then everyone reacted.

The Cleaner really meant this, she really wanted to monopolize Zhou Xuan and not let them get closer...

What was going on? Not to mention the hot-tempered Yudachi, even Ayanami, who was usually not good at expressing herself, couldn't help but frown and was hesitant to speak.

It's just that what Ayanami couldn't say, Yuudachi helped her say it. Not only that, the emotions contained in it were even stronger than at the beginning.

She suddenly took a step forward and pounced on the cleaner.

"You damned fellow, you actually wanted to monopolize my men. You deserve to be killed. Take my punch first."

Yudachi is a straightforward person. She adheres to the principle of never talking when she can take action. She takes a stance, raises her fist, and prepares to hit.

The situation changed too suddenly, and the Clearer could never have imagined that the ship girl in front of him would be so unreasonable.

If you can't win the argument, you have to use your fists to teach her a lesson physically, which is really too brutal.

But there was no way. The majestic momentum of a man with the power of a ship was not something her current mortal body could withstand.

The Cleaner staggered and took a step back before realizing it and raising his hand to block the opponent's fierce attack.

However, Yudachi is not a naive person and knows how to adapt. Or maybe this is not her original intention.

Seeing the Cleaner raise his hands to protect her, she changed her moves in time while flying in mid-air, retracted her fist, bared her fangs, and was about to bite down.

The sudden change in the situation was shocking, especially for Ayanami, because her subconscious connivance seemed to make this already delicate situation even more embarrassing.

Fortunately, Zhou Xuan was not a decoration after all. When he saw Xi Li's neat and shiny white teeth about to bite the cleaner's arm, he took action in time.

He held her forehead steadily, stopping Yuudachi's attempt to move forward.

At the same time, because he suddenly moved forward, his position with the Clearer changed.

To outsiders, it looked more like Zhou Xuan was a hero saving a beauty.

Chapter 278: It’s his turn to take action

"Thank you for your help, my ally. You came just in time."

"You...what are you doing? Men! I'm teaching this new guy who doesn't know the rules a lesson."

Hiding behind Zhou Xuan, the Cleaner could see Yudachi jumping up and down in anger because of Zhou Xuan's intervention, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

This could barely be considered a rare moment of victory for her in such a long time, and naturally, her mood also rose along with it.

The eliminator had thought about going the extra mile and using a few sarcastic remarks to deal a heavy blow to the other party's arrogance.

Just as she was about to speak, she didn't expect Yudachi's subsequent look and grin made her courage disappear.

He had no choice but to retract most of his body back behind Zhou Xuan and looked at Xi Li with dissatisfaction. What a novice and playful guy.

Zhou Xuan was certainly not a person who could not distinguish right from wrong. He knew who was at fault, so he pinched the cleaner's face and scolded him with a smile.

"It's ok that you're not quiet at night, but you're still like this during the day. You really are causing trouble for me all day long."

"Are you eager for my death? Do you want to tire me out and worry me to death in this way?"

To be fair, Zhou Xuan's criticism was not that harsh. It even sounded like a quarrel between an old couple, which was not difficult to accept.

Anyway, he was amused and spoke with a grin, narrowing his eyes as most of his cheeks were pinched.

"Hehehe, how could that be possible? You are my best and most capable assistant, how could I have such an idea?"

"Hehehe... don't stop, touch it again, pinch it for a while..."

At this point, the dispute was settled. Looking at the Clearer who suddenly changed in Zhou Xuan's hands, Ayanami Yudachi, Yukikaze and the other two were all confused.

I felt that it looked familiar, but my common sense was shattered by what I saw, so I couldn't put it into words.

Only Shi Yu noticed something strange. Being a smart girl, she placed her hands on her chest and chin, and quietly looked at the two of them, from the front to the back.

It was not until she saw the tail behind the Cleaner swaying and flapping its wings comfortably following Zhou Xuan's hand that she realized something and smiled without saying anything.

But in times of war, not all places are so peaceful and harmonious.
