"Admiral? What's wrong? I'll be downstairs as soon as I finish writing these things. Just find a chair and sit down. I'll be done in no time."

Writing? Li Ran saw Bismarck sitting in front of the redwood table, writing something furiously. His romantic thoughts were dispelled. He walked into Bismarck's room and found that the room was very simple and plain. There were several books beside the bed, and one book was open on the bedside table.

Li Ran closed the door gently and found that Bismarck's room smelled very good, as if it was the scent of an unknown flower, and also a body odor that accelerated the secretion of male hormones.

Li Ran patted his head gently to prevent himself from having some random thoughts, then walked to the bedside table and picked up the open book. He took a look and found that it was the "Military Wheel" that Bismarck had taken from the admiral's office before. Yes, there was no typo, it was the wheel of the wheel. The name of this book was very strange, but the content was very easy to understand. It was a combination of military theory and tactics. Moreover, he saw that the last page of the book was specially marked:

The original work was a printing error, but the original author has passed away, so this book uses the original name in his memory.

As for the author, it’s a guy named Miola Doszwak, whose nationality is unknown.

Li Ran suddenly felt a little curious about the stateless people.

He looked at the book and found out that it was first published a century ago by the World Library Publishing Group.

Li Ran's mouth twitched. This world was really weird. There really was a company called the World Library Publishing Group. However, he just complained about it, then flipped through it and found that the book was actually in both Chinese and German.

He had a strange look on his face. He didn't know why Chinese had become the universal language in this world. But if German also existed in this world, well, no matter how weird it was, it couldn't be as strange as traveling through time himself.

Li Ran shook his head, and then looked at many places in the front of the book. Bismarck also made a lot of annotations. He showed a thoughtful expression, and it seemed that he was a ship girl who liked reading just like Richelieu.

However, the content of this book "Military Wheel" was too boring. Li Ran felt a headache after reading it for a while, so he put the book down.

Bismarck heard the sound of Li Ran flipping pages. She summarized the last few parts of the report, then stood up. Looking at Li Ran lying lazily on her bed, her cheeks couldn't help but blush.

"Are you done?" Li Ran looked at Bismarck in a bathrobe, looking at him. He realized that he had unconsciously fallen on her bed. He sat up quickly and scratched his head awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mess up your bed."

Bismarck shook her head, then remembered the report. She sorted out the stack of reports and handed them to Li Ran:

"This is the summary report of the C Island operation. Since Lexington is not here, I will be in charge of the paperwork temporarily."

Li Ran finally realized that Bismarck had been busy with the report. He flipped through it briefly, then threw the report aside and said:

"In the future, you should work when you need to work and rest when you need to rest. You forgot that we were having afternoon tea this time."

Bismarck smiled apologetically and said:

"I didn't pay attention to the time because after taking a shower I thought about these days. The admiral might want to know the specific process from C to strategy. I originally wanted to write an outline, but I found that I couldn't stop writing, and then I forgot the time."

"It's okay. Be more careful next time. You must be very tired these past few days. It's not too late to deal with the paperwork tomorrow. You should rest well and don't take all the responsibility on yourself every time."

Li Ran said this and then looked into Bismarck's eyes.

Bismarck was a little nervous because of Li Ran's direct gaze. She responded in a low voice:

"I see."

When Li Ran said this to Bismarck, the cat ears moved cutely.

Li Ran felt that Bismarck, who had changed into other clothes, was actually a soft cat. However, he just put this idea aside. Then he remembered that Bismarck's light cruiser was not high before, and he seemed to have something on his mind. He continued:

"If the battle is successful, why do I feel like you're still unhappy?"

Bismarck heard Li Ran's question. She walked to the bed, opened the window, looked at the scenery outside the window, and felt a little depressed:

"Admiral, am I really useless? During these two expeditions, I was the one who suffered the most injuries and consumed the most resources, but I have never had anything..."

Li Ran looked at Bismarck's back. Bismarck, who was not wearing a military uniform at this time, looked a little thin, which made Li Ran feel distressed. He stood up and slowly walked to her side:

"You, just think about these things. Didn't I say that resources can be gone, but your safety must be considered first. After all, I, Li Ran, only have you. Apart from you, I have nothing else."

Bismarck didn't expect Li Ran to say that. She looked at the admiral's profile, which seemed to be a little tanned. For the first time, she spoke softly:

"I won't let my imagination run wild anymore, Admiral. It's enough for me to just stay by your side."

Li Ran knew that this sentence had no other meaning, but the current atmosphere...

Well, there was no atmosphere at all. Seeing that the admiral had not come down, Keeling slipped upstairs, and then saw that the light was on in Bismarck's room. She heard the voices of Li Ran and the admiral coming from inside, and after hearing what Bismarck said, she couldn't help but push hard, and then she lost her balance and rushed into the room, falling to the ground with a thud.

Li Ran heard Jilin's screams and realized that he had only left the door ajar when he closed it just now. However, it happened twice, how could it be Jilin again?

Li Ran felt like crying but had no tears. Little Jilin, you are simply a light bulb that walks everywhere.

Jilin felt some pain from the fall. She rubbed her forehead. How could she fall on such a flat ground? Li Ran was speechless:

"You're not just daydreaming, how could you fake a fall? What happened? Where did you fall?"

"Ouch, my forehead hurts." Keeling touched the lump on his forehead and looked at Li Ran and Bismarck pitifully.

Bismarck didn't know why, but she felt a little relieved and a little disappointed. She could feel the atmosphere just now, but when she was interrupted by Keeling, she felt relieved but also a little uncomfortable.

Li Ran walked forward angrily, then helped Jilin up and looked at the big swelling on Jilin's forehead:

"You, I'll get you some ice. Oh, Bismarck, you can leave the report in the office. You'll need to take care of Z24 and the others. I'll take that little troublemaker, Keelin, to get some ice first."

"Bad guy Admiral, I'm not a little troublemaker."

"And you still talk back."

……

Bismarck watched Li Ran and Keeling leave and the door was closed. She tidied up the clutter on the table, then sorted out the report, opened her closet, and while changing clothes, she looked at herself in the mirror, who looked a little strange and unfamiliar.

She touched her flushed cheeks, looked at her figure, and then remembered that the feeling between her and the admiral was getting weirder and weirder. She felt confused and flustered.

Bismarck was thinking about something while changing into a comfortable black short-sleeved shirt with a German sentence on it:

Zeit fuer Liebe und Gefuehl, heute bleibt es draussen richtig kuehl.

Kerzenschein und Apfelduft,es liegt Liebe in der Luft.

This sentence means:

Time for love and feeling,

It’s really cool that it’s still there today.

Candlelight and the scent of apples,

It's love in the air.

But Bismarck didn't understand love, and she didn't know whether this feeling could be considered love?

She whispered, and then felt a little confused. After changing her clothes, she stood by the window and watched the sunset. The fiery clouds in the sky were very beautiful, but her heart was very confused. She looked for a while, and then let out a faint sigh.

After a moment, the lights in the room went out and the footsteps faded away.

Chapter 116: Unexpected Discovery

Li Ran took Jilin to apply ice to reduce the swelling. When he went downstairs, he saw that it was getting dark outside. He glanced at the clock hanging in the living room. It was already past six o'clock. Time always passes quickly sometimes.

Guogan was talking to Z24 and the others. Seeing Jilin covering his head, she ran over and asked with concern:

"Admiral, what happened to Kirin?"

Li Ran said unhappily:

"Fake fall on flat ground."

"No way, I really fell." Keelin sniffed in grievance.

"You, wait for me to get an ice pack, you really make me worry."

Li Ran sighed. As long as the destroyers showed pitiful expressions, he would lose his temper.

Guogan watched the admiral enter the kitchen, then looked at Jilin with a smug smile. She curiously flicked Jilin's bag.

"Ouch, it hurts, what are you doing?" Jilin screamed when Kokang touched him like that.

"What a big bump! How did you fall?" Guo Gan quickly withdrew his hand, stuck out his tongue, and apologized:

"sorry."

"Oh, the Admiral and Bismarck are talking about something strange. I'm curious." Gilling covered his forehead, walked to the tea table and sat down. He was about to talk about the little secret he had discovered, but heard Z24 say:

"Sister Meow, you finally came down."

Keeling stopped talking immediately and looked at Bismarck timidly.

Li Ran just came out of the kitchen at this time. He saw Bismarck changed into a casual outfit and his eyes lit up. It must be said that the ship girls are all clothes racks and they look good in any clothes. However, he has been with the ship girls for a long time and has a certain immunity after all. He just nodded to Bismarck, then took an ice pack to apply to Kirin, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Taking care of the little girl is also very tiring.

gas.

Li Ran was about to chat with everyone when he heard Ruo Duoruo's voice.

"Chief Ruoduoruo, why are you here?"

Ruo Duoruo saw Li Ran. He said quickly:

"Sir Admiral, we have discovered a raw ore of Qinglian jade. The elders ask you to go over and make the decision."

"Qinglian Jade?" Li Ran was stunned for a long while. He had never heard of this thing before. But since it was jade, it must have value. However, it was interesting that the goblins actually wanted to go there by themselves.

"Okay then. Bismarck, you come with me. Guogan, you stay in the garrison."

"Got it, Admiral." Guogan nodded, then glared at Keelin who wanted to speak.

Keelin quickly covered his head with the ice pack and didn't dare to say anything.

Z24 and the others didn't like to walk around. They were a little tired after just going on an attack, so they just followed Li Ran's arrangements.

Bismarck told Z24 to be obedient, and then he and Li Ran followed Ruo Duoruo's instructions to the place where the Qinglian jade ore was found.

Ruo Duoruo sat on Li Ran's shoulder and pointed the direction for Li Ran.

Li Ran watched as he unknowingly walked into the depths of the eastern forest. This place had not been developed yet, but there was no need to worry about wild beasts. After all, with Bismarck by his side, no wild beasts would pose a threat. However, he was a little confused:

"What is the Qinglian Jade you are talking about? Jade?"

"Yes, it is a kind of jade, but it is rare. The raw ore found this time seems to be in large quantities. Elders Lin and Li have asked the ore-hunting fairies to stop and wait for the admiral's opinion. After all, if they want to mine jade, the tools they have now will wear out more."

Li Ran frowned after hearing this. Indeed, if jade is to be mined, different equipment is needed. The point is that he knows the value of this kind of refined jade. He nodded and said:

"Then let's go over and take a look. If it's not valuable, we can put the development of the jade on hold for now."

"Well, I'm not sure about the value of Qinglian Jade, but the ore-hunting fairies reported that if the raw ore is not processed quickly, there will be no way to collect the iron ore underneath the jade mine."

"Iron ore?" Li Ran's face lit up. He was worried that after driving away the sea merchants, it might take a long time for him to be self-sufficient. Having a new vein of ore was of course a good thing. However, when he thought about the fact that the smelting speed had not been improved, his face immediately fell.

"But it will take some time before new equipment can be purchased, and it may take some time before new mineral veins can be mined."

"Well, we are almost there. Admiral, please go to the left. There is a sign there. The Qinglian Jade Ore is behind that strange cave."

"Cave?" Li Ran thought for a moment. He was a little curious. Would there be any treasures left by previous people on this island? After all, it seemed that someone had lived on this island before. But then he smiled and felt that his idea was a little naive.

Bismarck saw that the admiral was in a very good mood, which made her a little surprised. However, she had been highly vigilant since entering the forest. After all, there were brown bears in this forest.

Under the leadership of Ruo Duoruo, Li Ran and Bismarck came to the cave hidden deep in the eastern forest and found that the outside of the cave was indeed a reinforced concrete structure poured by humans. He frowned and asked Bismarck:

"What does this cave look like to you?"

"Air-raid shelter?" Bismarck looked at the buildings outside the cave and said subconsciously.

"Yes, it looks very much like an air defense facility. I think it was abandoned when the original inhabitants of this island moved away." Li Ran expressed his guess. While talking to Bismarck, he carefully pushed aside the vines and finally came to the entrance of the cave. He found that the cave was not very old. He had been a Marine for several years and visited some air defense facilities. This place gave him the feeling that it had not been abandoned for a long time and was built very solidly. It was just that the power generation equipment might be damaged, which made the light tubes on both sides of the passage unusable.

Fortunately, there was still some light in the sky. He and Bismarck slowly went deeper into the cave, and then found that the cave was slowly going down, and there were some steps. What was strange was that it was not very dark inside. There were many unknown luminous objects decorated on the surrounding walls. Then he asked Ruo Duoruo who was sitting on his shoulder:

"What are these crystals?"

Ruo Duoruo frowned:

"These are synthetic crystals made by humans. They should be special crystals made by smelting some fluorite ores and special luminescent agents. However, their lifespan is only three or four years. These crystals are about to reach their expiration date."

"Oh, I see." Li Ran frowned. It was interesting that there were so many magical things in this world. However, the faint light emitted by these crystals just gave Li Ran and Bismarck guidance.

The two walked into the cave and found that the interior was simply built, but very solid. They had to walk through a long downward corridor, which was decorated with reflective crystals all around. After walking for about ten minutes, they finally reached the bottom space of this suspected air-raid shelter.

"It's in one of the rooms. There are many rooms here. When the mineral-seeking fairies found this place, they said that you humans have amazing construction skills. It's just that it takes too many resources to dig through the mountain. I don't understand what you humans are thinking to build such a large facility and put some moldy and spoiled food in it."

"Did you find food?" Li Ran was more and more certain that this cave was a facility such as an air-raid shelter or an emergency shelter. In this case, he had an idea, but it was not very clear for the time being. He thought about it and said to Ruo Duoruo:

"Then let's go quickly."

"Well, it's room 36. Just go straight inside." Ruo Duoruo shook her legs and pointed to the somewhat dark passage and said to Li Ran.

Li Ran nodded and said to Bismarck:

"let's go."

Bismarck nodded. She didn't like this kind of enclosed environment very much, but when she saw the admiral had already left, she hurriedly followed him for the admiral's safety.
