I'm in the azure sky, and I have an anti-fraud app.

"Commander, another ship girl said she wants to go on an island adventure today."

Belfast walked into the office, her red high heels catching everyone's eye.

"Yes, but the waters around the island are safe, so there's no problem."

Belfast walked behind the commander and used her marshmallow to massage his neck: "After all, she's a ship girl, so Master doesn't need to worry. If Master really wants fewer expeditions, I do have an idea."

Li Wei leaned back comfortably against the head maid's marshmallow, a pleasant scent filling his nostrils.

"Oh?"

Belfast gently pressed Levi's temples to ease the commander's fatigue from the morning: "The ship girls' desire to explore is certainly influenced by the movies, but there's also the fact that there's not much to do on the island—why not just find something for the ship girls to do?"

"Isn't the simulation device enough?"

"The simulation device can indeed satisfy the ship girls' desire for novelty, but it can only accommodate a small number of people at a time."

Li Wei thought about it and agreed: "Does Belfast have any ideas?"

"Why don't we release a survey online to gather the opinions of the ship girls?"

"Okay, let's do it that way."

Levi took Belfast's hand and gestured for her to come closer to him; a charming smile appeared on Belfast's face.

……

"Look, a survey has appeared on the forum!"

"And it was issued by the commander!"

"Quick, see what kind of investigation it is? Is it investigating the commander's lifestyle? If so, then I can speak on the matter."

"Idiot, the Commander posted it himself. Why would someone post a questionnaire about their own lifestyle habits?"

"Well……"

The questionnaire indeed sparked various discussions among the ship girls, with hundreds of responses appearing in just one afternoon—a rather astonishing proportion, considering that some ship girls are scattered all over the world and do not use the port's online forums due to missions, time differences, and other reasons.

Levi and Belfast looked at the varied answers on the questionnaire together.

"She wants a huge amusement park, wants to see fireworks, and wants to have her own mascot in the port area... Is this what a unicorn likes? I thought the huge Ferris wheel we saw before already met her requirements."

Belfast was giving Levi a massage on her main gun: "After all, she's a lovely girl, so it's understandable that she likes these things."

"Wanting to build more and more magnificent bathhouses all over the world... This is definitely the answer from a Sardinian ship girl, and most likely Veneto—it really is her. Veneto is great in every way, but her excessive love for bathhouses is a bit unbearable."

"Haha...Ms. Veneto's tastes have always remained the same."

"I want to build a larger library in the port area. The books in my room are already too many. Compared to online resources, I prefer the atmosphere of being enveloped in the scent of ink. This is a good idea. Let me see who came up with it. It must be a certain Eastern Huang ship girl, Hai Tian or Yi Xian... Empire? I really didn't expect that."

“This idea is indeed good.” Belfast straightened the main gun: “We can also set up some positions in the library, so that some ship girls can come and experience life and work. On the other hand, it can also promote the educational atmosphere in the port area.”

"...Does the concept of an educational area even exist in the port area?"

"If the master takes the lead in spreading the word, it will definitely happen."

“Alright, let’s do this first.” Levi replied to the Empire’s answer, then gently patted Belfast’s head: “Where would be a good place to build the library?”

Belfast reluctantly got up and pulled up a map of the port area on his communication device: "There's a large vacant lot next to the amusement park, more than enough to build a large library. How big does the master plan to build?"

"If I want to be able to accommodate hundreds of ship girls at the same time, how big should I build it?"

“Hmm… for that scale, a two-story library with a floor area of ​​several hundred square meters would actually suffice.” Belfast, as expected of the perfect head maid, moved with precision and speed, and in just a few breaths, she had already roughly sketched out the blueprint for the building in the air: “Master, is this alright?”

“It’s too small.” Li Wei shook his head. “I’m planning to add more functions and areas to the library. How about five or six floors?”

“Of course.” Belfast followed Levi’s instructions step by step, designing the blueprint: “Master, is this alright?”

“I’d like to be a little more creative… how about planting a giant tree in the library?”

"No problem, this way the footprint will be a bit larger, like this."

"And then add more facilities that lead directly to the top floor, and more of this... I also want one of these..."

Levi fully unleashed his imagination, and Belfast indulged it to the fullest.

Belfast asked without hesitation, "Does Master require anything else?"

"That's all. Let me see your design drawings... Is this still a library?"

Before Li Wei was a huge building, divided into various areas, with the original library section compressed into a small corner.

Belfast: "To be precise, this is a museum. Part of it functions as a library, and the rest addresses the various needs you just mentioned. If you feel the exterior isn't aesthetically pleasing enough, or the areas are too complex, we can make cuts and adjustments."

“Let’s just put it online.” Li Wei thought of a way to solve the problem: “Just say that we are going to build a new school and combine the functions of the original school and library into one building, and let the teachers and students choose for themselves.”

"Also, I'll try my best to preserve my area." Levi grabbed a handful of Belfast jelly. "Thank you for your hard work, Belfast."

"It is Belfast's happiness to be able to help my master solve his problems and relieve his worries." Belfast completed Levi's instructions: "Master, you must have been very tired after thinking all afternoon. Would you like some midnight snacks? I can make all kinds of midnight snacks for you myself."

"Now that you mention it, I'm actually a little hungry." Li Wei thought for a moment, "Summer is definitely the time to eat some barbecue, right? I'd like some meat skewers."

Belfast stood up and took out his communication device to start instructing the maids to do their work: "What flavor would you like? I have iris flavor, iron-blooded flavor, royal flavor, Eastern Empire flavor, white eagle flavor, and so on for you to choose from."

Levi joked, "Do you have a Belfast flavor?"

“Of course, I’ll have whatever you want, Master.” Belfast lowered her head and kissed Levi’s lips. “Then please wait a moment, Master. Belfast-style barbecue is coming soon.”

……

After dealing with the harassment from several ship girls, responding to the requests for night raids from more than a dozen ship girls, and receiving rest invitations from dozens of ship girls, Belfast finally pushed the small food cart back to her room.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Master. This is Belfast-style barbecue; we hope you enjoy it." Dido and Hermione followed behind Belfast. Seeing the two most docile maids behind him, Levi had a hunch about what was going to happen next.

Without Li Wei saying a word, the head maid took the initiative to begin the introduction.

“To ensure that Master enjoys an authentic Belfast-style barbecue, I will also participate myself, so I have asked two maids to help.” Belfast gestured for Hermione to open the lid of the plate covering the barbecue: “Master, tonight we will enjoy roast lamb, vegetables, and grilled fish, and we will also have some wheat juice. Is that alright?”

Li Wei nodded: "No problem."

Barbecue with beer, a familiar recipe, a familiar taste.

"First and foremost, it has to be roasted lamb!"

Belfast fed Levi mouth-to-mouth the mutton he had thoroughly chewed: "Master, can you taste Belfast's flavor?"

"Hmm, not bad."

"Next up is a beer with a Belfast flavor~ Master, this was poured for you personally by Belfast~"

"You just poured it yourself?"

“Yes, that’s how it’s done, huh?” Belfast fed some to Levi as well. “Master, these fine, airy bubbles don’t just appear naturally in wheat juice.”

"Very good, very good, is there anything else?"

“Now I’ll need the help of the other maids.” Belfast gestured for Hermione and Dido to help her, then lay down in front of Levi. The two maids placed portions of vegetables on Belfast, making it clear to Levi that Belfast was planning something.

"This was learned from Sakura Empire~, Master, please enjoy the Belfast flavor~"

“Let me try some.” Levi didn’t go for the vegetables, but instead decisively began to sample Belfast’s signature items. From marshmallows to the core module, from jelly to jailers, Levi didn’t miss a single place in Belfast.

"call……"

"Owner……"

Dido and Hermione also chimed in, "If Master wishes to sample the Head Maid, we can prepare for battle for you..."

"Alright, alright, come on, all of you, come on!" Li Wei exclaimed enthusiastically, "I want to take on ten of them!"

Chapter 368 The Empire: Sister Veneto Will Understand Me

The construction of the museum is in full swing.

After soliciting a large number of reliable opinions online, the port area concentrated its efforts on building the museum. In just one week, the tall museum rose from the ground, becoming a new landmark in the port area.

For ship girls, their biggest advantage is probably that they have more fun places to go.

"Today's mission: Spend some pleasant time with the Empire in the library to test how effective your 'library' is."

"Mission Reward: Hypnotic Ability".

"Mission judgment: If no feedback from the Empire regarding the library is received within one day, the mission will fail."

The reward for the mission was hypnotic abilities, something I hadn't seen in a while. To be honest, I learned about it one day...

"Commander, thank you for your help." Empire pushed a cart full of books through the library area. "These books...wouldn't it be better to put them here?"

“Of course.” Li Wei followed behind the Empire and patted the Empire’s head: “This part is derived from your idea, so naturally it’s up to you.”

"Hmm...hmm. Let's continue patting his head." Empire tilted his head slightly. "Hmm...here then."

Empire held up a stack of books, then realized he wasn't tall enough: "Commander, shouldn't there be escalators in the library?"

Li Wei wanted to offer to help, but when he looked up, he realized he couldn't reach the nearly three-meter-high bookshelf. He swallowed his words and changed his approach: "It should be there. I'll go look for it for you."

"Ah."

Li Wei pushed over the ladder, and Empire, carrying books, climbed up: "Commander, could you hold the ladder for me? It's a little..."

"Don't worry, there's no possibility of any danger." Li Wei glanced up and saw the scenery outside the Empire's core module: "Ahem... Empire, don't you feel a bit chilly today?"

"Cool? What are you talking about, Commander?" The Empire, completely oblivious to its own perks, assumed the Commander was referring to the weather: "It's so hot today, it's not cool at all. If the Commander wants to cool off, you can go to the swimming pool, it's very close to the library."

"No... I meant this." Before Li Weijian could react, he simply moved the obstacle in front of him aside: "Don't you feel a little cool?"

"Oh...you like this?"

The Empire remained unfazed as the commander revealed the core module door: "It's precisely because it's so hot that we didn't consider adding any obstacles—it's already hot enough, wouldn't adding more just make it even hotter?"

"If the commander is so concerned, perhaps you could help me think of a way to make it less hot..." Empire took a few steps back to make himself at the right height: "Or... maybe we could use sweat to carry away the heat?"

The sweat the empire spoke of was clearly not actual sweat, but rather some kind of industrial process.

"Well……"

"Commander, is it good?"

"Hmm...it smells like a book."

"The smell of the books is a bit much." Empire carefully avoided letting his weight fall on the commander's face: "I just like reading a little, I'm not a bookworm."

"Speaking of which, are all these books from the Empire itself? I didn't expect there to be so many."

“Of course not.” Empire carefully adjusted his position: “My book is only a small part. I enjoy being in a book, but I don’t read it very fast.”

"And these books..."

"These are all books from Sardinia, most of them belonging to Veneto." The Empire gestured for the commander to hand him the books on the cart. "Veneto also loves books, but she only likes to buy them, not read them, so..."

"So you're getting them all, right?" Li Wei gestured for the Empire to move down a bit so he could get closer to its core.

"To be precise, it was lent to me, but Sister Veneto doesn't seem to have remembered that I should return it." The Empire gestured for the commander to move aside and stepped down from the escalator. "Let's go, there are still many books to put away."

Li Wei clicked his tongue, seemingly still wanting more, and picked up a book to flip through: "Are these books also Veneto's? These look... seemingly written in the language of irises."

Li Wei could completely understand Iris's language. After flipping through it briefly, he found that it was a book about pet care.

"This is a book by Bishop Richelieu..."

Richelieu, you're hopeless...

The Empire was already pushing the cart forward: "Commander, over here."

The two repeated their previous actions. Empire carried the book up, then lowered herself slightly to adjust her height so that Li Wei could both hand her the book and enjoy Empire's touch.

Did Richelieu give you her books to put in the library as well?

"Hmm... I guess so." Empire seemed unsure as well: "Anyway, I like organizing books, so it's fine."

"You've worked hard, Empire." Li Wei fully savored the taste of the Empire's influence. "Do you still want to put the books down? I'll help you lift them up?"

"No need." The Empire descended halfway and adjusted its altitude: "If the Commander wishes to have an in-depth discussion here, we can begin now."

……

After using a round of ammunition inside the Empire's core compartment, Li Wei led the Empire to continue organizing the bookshelves.

Li Wei handed several books to the Empire on the ladder: "It was a little hard to imagine before that the Empire would be interested in the position of librarian."

Empire took the book from Levi and categorized it by title and content: "So... what would I be interested in, Commander?"

"Hmm...probably something like sunbathing." Li Wei casually mentioned a few behaviors based on his memory: "It feels more in line with the temperament of the Empire."

The Empire lightly touched the main gun with its little foot: "Commander, preconceived notions."
