Daily life with the ship girl

"Suicide?" Washington sneered:

"Only humans would use such a high-sounding excuse to cover up that dirty deal. Abandoning a governor and getting rid of several of the most powerful legendary warship girls in the world at that time in exchange for some deep-sea technology, this bargaining chip was enough to drive those people crazy at that time!"

"How is it possible!" Bai Nuoyan listened to what Washington meant and said in disbelief:

"You mean to say that the Governor was murdered?"

Washington sneered:

"In the dossier I found, the scholar made a detailed comparison of the cause of death of the governor. There are several speculations about the cause of death of the governor. One is that he committed suicide out of shame after the great defeat. This is the so-called truth accepted by everyone now. Unfortunately, the scholar pointed out that this so-called truth does not match the time at all, because the governor had already died before the great defeat."

Lexington immediately realized that something had been revealed, and it was even dirtier than she had imagined. She said tentatively:

"Impossible. If the Governor-General had died before the great defeat, then the six legendary ship girls of the Governor-General should have sensed it, right?"

"You're right." Washington smiled bitterly:

"The six ship girls actually wrote a letter to the governor, but when the letter arrived, the reply was just a copy of the governor's handwriting. It was ridiculous that humans were so self-righteous that they thought that this little trick would not be seen through. Unfortunately, the six legendary ship girls were too stupid. Even though they knew that staying in Braton would lead to certain death, they still kept the governor's words in mind. That's why there was the so-called good story of the six legendary ships sinking in battle and winning the retreat of the Atlantic Front Combined Fleet.

The funny thing is that their names have been almost forgotten by now, and I think no one can remember the name of the former Atlantic Governor, not to mention the name of the Siano Garrison and the Dorada Arms Factory, which was the institution that gathered the most scientific research elites in the world at that time. They all collapsed with the death of the Governor. "

"The Xi'anor Garrison and the Nadorada Arms Factory you mentioned, could it be..." Li Ran thought of a possibility. If this possibility is true, then...

"Yes, I know what you want to say. The Xi'anor Garrison is the name of the governor's garrison thirty years ago. The current location of this garrison is the Five Suns Islands of the Bratonalt Route that was abandoned that year. The Nadorada Arms Manufacturing Plant is located in the Xi'anor Garrison. It was an authoritative research institution that brought together human elites and many great goblins at that time. The analysis of the transformation core was carried out there, and it was committed to manufacturing more advanced transformation cores based on the original transformation cores. Unfortunately, the experiment failed.

Later, due to the accidental death of the governor, all the research data were divided up overnight, and some of the data fell into the hands of [Deep Blue Light], which led to the fraud of the transformation core at that time. Now this fraud has surfaced again. I think these crawlers that have been hiding for many years want to imitate the tricks of the year to attack the Governor of the Pacific.

It's a pity that although the Governor General is lazy, he has top think tanks around him to give him advice. So this time, our Atlantic Military Police Headquarters will do its best to help the Pacific Governor General to uproot the [Deep Blue Light]. After all, that great defeat has become a thorn in the heart of the Atlantic Governor General. If someone wants to touch it, it will undoubtedly touch the Governor General's sore spot. "

Li Ran was silent. Which governor was responsible for all these counterfeit transformation cores? But that was not right. Logically speaking, these things were in a mess in terms of time. He asked quickly:

"But this doesn't make sense. If the research failed first, the governor should have been dead when the data was divided. The timing doesn't make sense. After all, if a batch of fake cores want to be spread to the warships fighting on the front line, they have to gain their trust, and it takes some time for the warships to be transformed. The timing doesn't make sense at all."

Washington sighed and said:

"This is also what I have never understood. However, the shells of the transformation cores you brought here are all missing key components. Now I understand what is going on. These fake transformation cores did not flow into the hands of the admirals all at once. Instead, during the experiment, some people mixed the failed products with the real transformation cores for their own selfish interests.

And because these failed new transformation cores are engraved with the name of the Dorada Arms Factory, I guess the admirals who got these new transformation cores must be very happy, but unfortunately they don’t know what kind of disaster this batch of transformation cores has brought to them. "

"You mean, the internal researchers saw the value of the transformation core and became greedy, and then used the failed transformation core as a substitute for the real thing?" Li Ran changed to a more popular expression. After all, no matter how complicated Washington's statement was, it was ultimately driven by profit.

"Yes, you can understand it that way." After hearing what Li Ran said, Washington felt that he had made it too complicated. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Let's put it this way. Think of the Dorada Arms Manufacturing Plant as a company with high salaries and benefits. The company was carrying out a project. The project failed and there were many inferior products. The authentic products were very valuable. Some employees became greedy and passed off inferior products as good ones during the delivery process. They secretly withheld the authentic products and used inferior products to fill the gaps. This led to serious consequences - that is, many elite shipgirls on the front line of the Bratton Route who were resisting the deep sea had problems.

I think these people saw that the situation was irreversible, so they wanted to kill the governor. Because it happened just before the great defeat, I think the organization [Deep Blue Light] should have existed when the Dorada Arms Factory was still operating normally. I later investigated based on this, and I accidentally found some clues, and your physical evidence undoubtedly proved my speculation. "

Li Ran felt a little helpless. The value of the transformation core was very high. One transformation core cost hundreds of thousands of ocean coins, and there was no market for it. It was good enough for each garrison to have ten transformation cores a month. There were thousands of garrisons in the world, and the market for transformation cores was huge. No wonder those researchers were greedy at the time. He thought about it and said:

"But I have a question. Why do we need to analyze the transformation core? According to common sense, even the engineering goblins cannot re-transform the various transformation cores that have already been finalized. Isn't it a bit redundant for the governor to do this experiment?"

Washington nodded, and then she smiled bitterly:

"I originally thought that all this was unnecessary, and I thought that the former Atlantic Governor had brought this upon himself, but I realized that I had thought too simply. The development experiment of this new transformation core was because the Governor had sent two elite submarine formations to dive deep into the habitat of the Deep Sea Fortress Ji, where there was a small island called Forbidden Island. These submarines brought back two strange embryos."

Lexington's face changed at this moment. She looked at the commander's face and was also nervous. She quickly said in the exclusive channel:

"Commander, could those two embryos be the two children mentioned in the Prince of Wales' letter?"

Li Ran felt that he was still undecided. He signaled Lexington to be patient, and then she pretended to ask casually:

"Bring back two embryos? I have a question. Why did the governor send submarine forces into the deep sea habitat? And how did he find the forbidden island? Don't you think all this is very strange?"

"Nothing strange." Washington felt a little dry in the mouth. She picked up the slightly cold tea, took a sip, and continued:

"Because the reaction of the two embryos at that time was discovered by the most advanced radar manufactured by the Governor's Dorada Arms Factory, and through analysis, the two embryos were related to the mystery of the power source of the seven deep-sea flagships, so the Governor took the risk to take the two embryos back. This is also the reason why the Deep Sea Fortress Ji later frantically attacked the Bratonalt route.

Unfortunately, with the sinking of the Prince of Wales, the whereabouts of the two embryos became an unsolved mystery. It is rumored that when the two embryos were brought back to the Dorada Arsenal, they had already hatched into two children.

There are many different opinions about the identities of these two children. Some say they are Warship Girls, and some say they are the children of Deep Sea Fortress Princess. However, thirty years have passed, and no one knows the whereabouts of the two children.

"Then it has little to do with the Deep Sea Fortress Ji's massive attack on the White Crane Line this time, right?" Bai Nuoyan was confused.

“No, because the [Deep Blue Light] appeared, which proves that they found the clue. To tell you the truth, Governor Wang An and Governor Xiao Xiao told me that [Deep Blue Light] was unable to convince the ship girl who finally knew the whereabouts of the two children because of the lack of the personal letter from the Prince of Wales at that time.

However, the foolish [Light of the Deep Sea] accidentally leaked the news, and before he knew it, even the Deep Sea Fortress Princess knew about it, which led to the current large-scale conflict.

Unfortunately, [Deep Blue Light] attempted to spread rumors to shake the morale of the army. In fact, the White Crane Line has not been lost. However, I am afraid you can only ask the Governor for the specific situation. "

Li Ran was stunned for a moment, then watched Washington take out a set of equipment from the ship's space:

"This is a state-of-the-art communications imaging instrument."

"Isn't this a computer?" Li Ran was powerless to complain. This is just a desktop computer. Hey, this world is such a scam.

Li Ran watched Washington fiddle with the so-called communication imaging device, then watched Shancheng get up and connect the power cord, and the device started working.

Washington turned on the instrument and said:

"As long as you input the Governor's soul frequency band number, you will be able to communicate with the Governor through the Admiral's global network consciousness on this planet. Of course, you also need to input your soul frequency band number."

Li Ran's forehead was full of black lines. This is really an unscientific world, black technology, you can surf the Internet without the Internet, damn it, and what the hell is this admiral's personal network, the admiral's global network awareness, what the hell is this, forget it.

Li Ran walked to the computer. Well, it’s not called a computer. I can’t stand it. This machine is just missing a keyboard and a mouse. Otherwise, it would be a desktop computer. Hey, can anyone tell me if the inventor of such a weird machine is also a time traveler?

Well, despite all the complaints, Li Ran still straightened his clothes. After all, it was his first time meeting the governor, and he couldn't be too rude.

Washington smiled and said:

"You don't have to be too nervous. Your Pacific War Zone Governor Xiao Xiao is a lazy guy. He shouldn't be like Wang An. By the way, this is the Governor's soul frequency band number [UID12446]."

Li Ran nodded, and then he also entered his soul channel number [UID819430].

After a while, the screen of the instrument slowly lit up, and then a somewhat lazy guy yawned and walked over and said:

"Hello? Who are you looking for?"

Chapter 143: The Improper Governor

Li Ran's forehead veins bulged, and he thought to himself, isn't this nonsense? If not you, who else should I look for?

However, after all, the man in front of him was the Governor of the Pacific, the leader of the war zone, so he should be polite. He took a deep breath and then introduced himself:

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency the Governor."

"Who are you? Hey, Washington, why did you think of looking for me? Is it..."

"Admiral, if you continue to be so indecent, you don't have to sleep in my bed tonight." A voice came from the opposite side. After hearing it, Li Ran thought to himself that he was so envious. He was worthy of being the governor and he was even on board.

"Ahem, you didn't hear anything just now." Xiao Xiao seemed to care about the ship girl who spoke just now, and put away her playful smile at this time, and then said:

"Washington, this person looks strange. And you actually gave my contact information to a man. Is this guy your admiral? No wonder you rejected my recruitment."

"Enough, you damn Lord of the Rings!" Washington couldn't stand this governor anymore. This Pacific governor was completely different from Wang An's iron-blooded governor. He was usually lazy, and even though such a big thing happened this time, it was just a lot of noise but little action. He just sent out some notifications, and then there was no follow-up. This time he wanted to take the initiative to contact this guy, and saw a little anxiety on his face. He didn't expect that this guy was still as bad-mouthed as before, which was really infuriating.

"Don't say that. Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. You don't understand humor at all." Xiao Xiao shrugged.

Li Ran's forehead was bulging with veins. This guy was flirting with Washington without paying any attention to others. It was really... really enviable. So this was the governor?

"Ahem, Your Excellency the Governor, I'm Li Ran, a trainee admiral. The garrison is located on the edge of the western part of the White Crane Line. I'm a newly promoted admiral. I'm taking the liberty of contacting you because I have important intelligence to report."

"Oh, I thought Washington wanted to join me. What a disappointment. Come on, young man. Don't call me Your Excellency. It makes me sound very old."

Li Ran took a deep breath and said to Bismarck:

"Bring the box here."

Bismarck stepped forward, inevitably showing up in front of this so-called Governor of the Pacific, and then Li Ran heard the screams of a pig being slaughtered from the opposite side:

"Ah, Persian Cat-chan, how did you find the admiral? Young man, how about I discuss something with you?"

"That's enough, Admiral. Let's get down to business and stop being so frivolous." Missouri finally couldn't stand it anymore and slapped Xiao Xiao on the head, then said a little embarrassedly:

"Please forgive me, everyone. The Admiral has been crazy about construction recently. He has not been able to deliver the goods, so this is the case."

Li Ran's forehead was throbbing with veins. Never mind, this guy is the governor, otherwise he would have beaten him into a pulp. He forced out a formulaic smile:

"Hello, you must be the Governor's secretary ship, Missouri. Nice to meet you."

"Hey, Missouri, there are so many people watching, at least give me some face." Xiao Xiao covered his head. He looked at Missouri with some resentment, and then saw that everyone on the other side of the screen had murderous expressions on their faces. He finally gave in:

"Okay, why do you all look so scary? Tell me, what information do you have?"

Li Ran looked at the reluctant face of the other party and thought, is it really okay to hand over the Pacific theater to this guy? Alas, why does this governor not seem very reliable? Forget it, anyway, these big guys may act strangely. He sorted out his thoughts:

"Governor, these are things I found in an underground fortification on my island. After hearing your notification, I thought that these things might be helpful to your investigation into the core fraud case."

Li Ran signaled Bismarck to open the box, and Li Ran placed the fake transformation cores in front of this strange machine:

"These are the sixteen counterfeit transformation cores. My secretary ship Lexington will explain the specific information to His Excellency the Governor."

"Who? You said your secretary ship is Lexington?" Xiao Xiao looked a little resentful, and then he saw Lexington walk up to Li Ran and hold the young man's arm. He felt that his life was bleak:

"You are such a lucky guy, aren't you?"

"Your Excellency Governor, now is not the time to talk about this, right?" Bai Nuoyan was going crazy. Is this guy really the governor?

"Oh, little princess of Sihai Trading Company, I heard that your family has been in trouble recently. How is it going? Has it been resolved? How is old man Bai Kuang doing recently?"

"Thank you for your concern, Governor. My father is in good health." Bai Nuoyan's family still has some contacts with the Governor's Office, but thinking that they were talking about business now, she quickly said:

"No, this is not the time to chat about family matters. We are in a hurry now. Can't you be serious?"

"Why are they all like this now? The sky won't fall." Xiao Xiao shrugged, then looked at the things Li Ran had placed in front of the screen. He touched his smooth chin, which looked a little funny, and then he said:

"Is this thing from the batch produced thirty years ago? But the core components are missing. Missouri, come and take a look."

"Are there some special places marked on this thing?" Missouri asked pointedly.

Washington nodded, came forward, and said to Missouri:

"These counterfeit transformation cores are the failed products of the Dorada Arms Factory. Of course, the name of the Xi'anor Garrison is also reflected on them. They should be made with the same manufacturing method as the inferior transformation cores you found in this transformation core counterfeiting case. I think it must be the remnants of the Deep Blue Light who can no longer hold back."

"It's because of those two kids again." Xiao Xiao's face flashed a trace of solemnity. He thought for a moment and said to Li Ran:

"Young man, the information you provided was of great help. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Li Ran was confused. What was going on? He hadn't said anything yet, but it seemed like the other party knew everything? He said in disbelief:

"Does His Excellency the Governor know everything?"

"Probably. You know everything you need to know. It's just that Deep Sea Fortress Ji has a bad temper and is a little difficult to deal with. As for the others, they are just minor incidents. By the way, I think you and Lexington are in such a hurry to contact me because you are worried about the First Ship Girl Academy. Don't worry, the academy is fine. You can't contact the academy because the academy deliberately cut off contact. That's it. Washington, please bring these things over. I haven't seen North Carolina for a long time. I miss her."

"Don't set your sights on my sister, you Lord of the Rings. Wait, you just said you were going to give this newcomer a reward. Where's the reward?"

"Oh, I almost forgot. Check the location of the Xiguang Garrison in Missouri and send some supplies over there."

"But Admiral, the Deep Sea Fortress Princess is still making trouble over at the White Crane Line."

"Then fight back. That big-breasted, brainless woman really thinks that I am afraid of her. Let's all attack. I may not have cared about things for too long. Maybe those clowns have forgotten that there is a governor like me in the Pacific Theater."

"You want to do it yourself?" Washington's tone was full of disbelief. She pondered for a while:

"Is it that serious?"

"Nothing, it's been a while since we asked them to attack, and the port area is almost being torn apart by them recently. As for you guys, when are you free to come visit again? I almost forgot, and I haven't asked this boy's name yet."

Bai Nuoyan heard from her father Bai Kuang that the Governor of the Pacific had a strange style of doing things, but his tactics were generally swift and decisive. He was the kind of person who would not take action unless he did, but would solve the problem in one go. He also warned her not to be deceived by the admiral's lazy appearance. She quickly said:

"Uncle Governor, his name is Li Ran."

"Don't call me uncle. I'm not even thirty years old, little girl. Forget it. Since this guy is half European, I'll give him 10,000 standard units of each of the four resources. It will be delivered in about a week.

By the way, Lei Ming did a good job this time. Yamashiro-chan, I already know the difficulties of your Lei Ming Garrison. Once you send the Deep Sea Fortress Princess back home, there will be a fleet viewing ceremony at the Kanmusu Academy headquarters next month, and Major Lei will be given a spot. How many Kanmusu girls he can bring back depends on Major Lei's own charm.

Of course, there is also my lovely little niece. I owe Bai Kuang a few favors, but unfortunately he never wants me to pay him back. However, if you become the admiral, I will inform the guy in the Far East Theater about Operation Dawn, and you can rest assured about the garrison."

"Thank you very much, Governor." Bai Nuoyan smiled sweetly.

Li Ran looked as if he had seen a ghost, and then he saw the screen go dark. He looked incredulous:

"You actually know the Governor? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"You didn't ask." Bai Nuoyan expressed her innocence.

Li Ran watched Washington put away the equipment. He still didn't react:

"Washington, is this matter over?"

"It's over. You don't need to worry about other things. Since this guy is going to take action, the farce on the White Crane Line should come to an end. Shancheng, we should also say goodbye."

"Well, with the governor's promise, I think the admiral can sleep well this time after hearing the news." Yamashiro also breathed a sigh of relief, and she stood up to see Washington off.

Li Ran looked at Bismarck and Lexington. He felt like he had received a reward without doing anything. However, this might be the way the big guys acted. He sighed:

"Let's follow suit. I really don't understand the Governor's style of doing things."
