Daily life with the ship girl

"Everyone, is the training over?"

"Admiral, Admiral, Firefly is not lazy."

Firefly heard Li Ran's voice and ran down the base of the tower impatiently. Then he rushed up, hit Li Ran with a heroic headbutt, and hugged him.

Li Ran felt a pain in his chest, then he smiled bitterly and rubbed Firefly's golden curly hair, saying:

"Ok, I know."

Although it was a bit painful, it was enough to see the fireflies so happy.

Li Ran looked at Firefly and was very happy, so he let her pull him to the abandoned tower base.

Helena saw Li Ran coming, then glanced at Li Ran's wrist, but didn't see the watch. Admiral, did you know?

But, forget it. Whether the admiral remembered it or not, that woman still appeared. And I didn't disappear either, which proves that the admiral never left us. In that case...

"Helena? What are you thinking about?" Li Ran got rid of the destroyers and sat down next to Helena.

"Ah, nothing, why is the admiral here?"

Helena looked at Li Ran's profile and saw that he was staring at the destroyers playing on the sea. She said softly:

“They work very hard.”

"Yes." Li Ran said this, but added inaudibly:

"But I still prefer their normal appearance now."

"Admiral? What did you say?"

"Nothing, I just said the weather is nice today. By the way, do you remember what I told you here last time?"

"what?"

"Taki, since this is what I built for you before and it collapsed later, I will build it again one day."

"Admiral, you still remember."

"I don't remember, but Helena wouldn't lie to me, right?"

Li Ran's tone revealed an indescribable emotion. Helena felt a little flustered, but after the panic, she felt a wrong force.

"Reputation, let's go back, Helena. I won't bother you anymore. I'm really looking forward to them being able to protect themselves after they get better."

"Got it, Admiral. Leave it to me." Helena said this, and then saw that Li Ran really left like this, and then she said softly:

"No matter when the unknown appears, I will defend the admiral to the death and will never allow that to happen!"

Shengyu watched Li Ran really leave like that. She always felt that the admiral was very strange today, as if he wanted to express something intentionally or unintentionally, but why couldn't she understand?

And, this feeling is so sad.

Reputation gently covered his chest, not knowing when a slight tingling sensation began to grow.

At this time, a sea breeze blew by, and Li Ran subconsciously touched his wrist and found that he had taken off that thing. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and then he continued to walk forward.

The road ahead is still long, but I will always be with you no matter when, I swear!

Even if the future is troublesome.

Chapter 230: Because we know each other too well, we hurt each other

"Reputation, go back."

Li Ran thought about it and felt that there was no need to go shopping anymore. Everyone was working so hard, but he was the only one doing nothing. He couldn't be depressed because of what happened last night. It would be bad if he returned to the port in such a mess.

"Master, are we going back?" Shengyu was a little surprised, thinking that Li Ran was going to continue shopping.

"Well, let's go back. Lexington seems to be in a bad mood. I have to deal with it."

Li Ran said this, and then left an unfathomable back to Shengyu.

Master, are you really slow-witted or do you know everything?

"I understand, Master."

I can't figure out her reputation, but never mind. Trying to figure out the master's mindset can be quite rude sometimes. As the best maid, being able to read people's expressions is a necessary skill.

Li Ran and Shengwang went back one after another.

Saratoga had just arrived at the dock at this time. Seeing Li Ran's indifferent look, she was a little annoyed, but when she thought of the first time her sister was so angry, she clenched her fists and turned away.

……

When Li Ran returned to the garrison, Richelieu was reading a book with a cup of black tea beside him.

"Admiral? You're back so soon?"

"Well, you're reading again."

"Yes, if you study, it is also a kind of practice of chivalry."

"Chivalry?" Li Ran was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Richelieu's ship did have a knight's sword, and he nodded in agreement:

"There is a saying in my hometown that goes 'You never stop learning', and it is always true to read at any time."

"What the admiral said is very philosophical." Richelieu gently closed the book, then raised his head and looked at his admiral with extremely serious eyes:

"If the Admiral has something important to do, you should do it first. Reputation, don't you think?"

"I totally agree." Reputation sighed slightly in his heart and said this.

Li Ran touched his nose. It seemed that Lexington was very angry. However, thank you for your reminder, Richelieu.

He thought so, then waved his hand:

"Then I'll go up first."

Li Ran walked up the stairs, and suddenly felt a little nervous. He was a little slow, but during this trip, whether it was Richelieu, Bismarck, or Helena, they all inadvertently revealed some information.

Moreover, ever since he came back last night, the atmosphere in the port area has been a little strange. Although he doesn't know what exactly happened, he can only speculate that it has something to do with him.

Forget it, sometimes it is better to make things clear. The Bismarck incident has made him realize that as an admiral, there are some things that should not be concealed.

Thinking of this, Li Ran knocked on the office door.

"Come in." Lexington's cold voice came from inside.

Li Ran took a deep breath and realized that he had indeed made her angry, but where exactly was the problem?

Girls' minds are really hard to understand. Bismarck has already made me so anxious. Now if...

Forget it, there’s no point in thinking so much.

"Lexington, didn't you go to rest?"

"Admiral, after the training is over, I still need to continue working. This is the duty of a secretary ship."

When Li Ran heard Lexington say this, he opened his mouth and suddenly felt a little choked up. Then he made up his mind:

"Let's hold a military meeting tonight. You go and rest. I'll handle this. This is an order."

Lexington heard Li Ran say these words in an extremely unfamiliar tone. She seemed to sense that something was wrong. What happened to her? Ever since the admiral came back, ever since she saw Bismarck holding hands with the admiral, ever since the admiral came back last night and there was a watch on her hand that didn't belong to the admiral, she was lost? But? Why?

Triangulation, this calculation method, Admiral, how did you know it? If you are really that person, why?

"Lexington? Are you going to disobey orders?"

Li Ran looked at Lexington like this, and he thought it was because of too much pressure, and maybe the method he used was a bit rough, but he understood that although Lexington looked gentle on the outside, he was actually stronger than anyone else in his heart.

It is precisely because of this that Lexington feels so heavy on his shoulders, and it reminds him of his silly sister. He will not allow that kind of tragedy to happen again, so he must stop it, even if it will hurt Lexington's heart.

Lexington was completely dumbfounded. She never thought that she would make someone so angry.

"I understand."

As Lexington said this, she suddenly felt something about to fall out of her eye sockets.

However, what greeted her was Li Ran's extremely disappointed look. That's right, this good-natured admiral who she had always thought would never get angry with a ship girl was completely angry.

So Lexington just put down the documents in his hand and left the office without saying a word.

Li Ran heard the sound of the door closing, then he came to his senses and realized that he had made another fatal mistake.

Thinking of this, tears flowed from the corners of my eyes. Did I really make a wrong decision that year?

"Sister, I'm sorry."

Li Ran sat at his desk in a daze, then looked up at the ceiling.

Richelieu saw Lexington coming down the stairs, but he was obviously in a bad condition. However, she was more worried about her admiral.

"Hey, Lexington, is this what you wanted?"

Richelieu's words made Lexington pause as he was about to step out of the garrison.

Lexington didn't even look back and continued walking forward.

Richelieu put down the tea in his hand, and his tone became cold:

"Do you really understand the Admiral?"

Lexington shuddered all over, and she came to her senses. Yes, it seemed that she had never understood the admiral.

Yes, that’s why I seem to have never understood the admiral.

"how about you."

Lexington continued walking forward and left these words.

Richelieu saw Lexington fight back for the first time, and she sighed:

This is really troublesome, Admiral, what on earth have you done?

Richelieu found herself confused. She didn't understand why Bismarck made such a fatal mistake on the training ground. Even Lexington, who always carried out the admiral's orders to the end, acted willfully. Why did all this happen?

Love?

Richelieu thought so, but he felt something was wrong. Lexington's reaction just now was not just sadness.

As a woman, her understanding of her peers can sometimes be very intuitive and accurate. She subconsciously looked towards the stairs, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly arose in her heart.

"Richelieu, the master went out to sea last night, didn't he?"

"It should be. Although everyone subconsciously ignored it, everyone's reaction today proves that the admiral seems to have gone out for something."

"But even so, the master must have a reason why he couldn't tell us."

"That's true. Lexington should be the one who understands it best. But it's precisely because they understand it too well that sometimes they hurt each other more without mercy."

"The situation is getting a bit bad." Reputation looked meaningfully in the direction where Lexington disappeared.

Richelieu picked up the teacup, took a sip of black tea, and his eyes became sharp:

"It's time to hurry up and investigate last night's situation."

"That's true." When Shengwang heard Richelieu say this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Chapter 231: Sealed Memories (Part 1)

It was already dark when Li Ran woke up. He looked at the darkened office and slapped his forehead. He hadn't felt so bad for a long time. It had been a long time since his sister passed away due to illness.

He actually said that. Why did I feel relieved and yet so heartbroken at the same time?

As expected, there are so many ship girls who get married in the game, isn’t it because they really have invested their feelings in them?

Li Ran laughed at himself. That should be the case. That’s why he was so embarrassed when the game turned into reality.

I am such a playboy.

However, when he thought of the appearance of the ship girls, he laughed at himself and felt that he was being a little hypocritical now.

Li Ran, ah Li Ran, you are lustful, there is nothing to deny.

However, if we do whatever we want, we will be going against Bismarck's will.

"Forget it. Now that it's night time, it's time to make your own decision."

Li Ran opened his eyes, touched his chest, and said softly:

"Sister, I'm sorry I forgot about you for so long."

As Li Ran said this, he silently clenched his fists and left the office.
