Azur Lane Mobile Front.

A chessboard, still in the same old spot.

However, this time, the fragrant tea was replaced with an unknown wine bottle.

"Hmm? What's wrong, feeling like drinking?"

"Just trying something different~"

Zhenhai pulled Luo Bo down to sit, a hint of allure on his face.

At this point, Rob felt he had fully grasped Zhenhai's intentions.

It was just a little jealousy from the strategist lady after Shinano.

Looks like I'll have to work really hard tonight.

...

However, Zhenhai's next move left Luo Bo somewhat baffled.

She neither started the game of chess nor added the wine that had been prepared to her glass.

She was simply chatting with Rob about everyday matters in the port area.

It was as if she was still waiting for something.

"Zhenhai, are you inside?"

Before long, the answer was revealed.

Yi Xian's voice came from outside the door.

"Yes, just a moment~"

"Hehe, Commander, wait for me here for a moment~"

Zhenhai reached out and stroked Luo Bo's hand, then walked gracefully towards the door.

Before long, Yi Xian, whose face was still filled with shock, was pulled by Zhen Hai to Luo Bo's side.

It seems that Yixian was also quite frightened by Zhenhai's attire.

"commander?"

A hint of doubt appeared in Yi Xian's gentle eyes.

Rob's appearance made her seem to realize something.

"Oh dear, Zhenhai, since you've already summoned the commander, you shouldn't have bothered me then~"

With a flicker of her eyes, Yi Xian rolled her eyes at Zhen Hai.

It was obvious that her best friend wanted to have a serious talk with her commander.

At this moment, wouldn't it be a bit of a mood killer to show up?

"Just pretend I forgot about it, okay?"

Zhenhai ignored Yixian's disdain, pulled over a chair, and pressed the other person down into it.

"Since we're already here, let's make the best of it. How about the three of us study this chess manual together tonight?"

As he spoke, Zhenhai picked up the wine bottle and poured wine into the glasses in front of the three of them.

"Honestly, you're always like this, plotting something behind my back."

Yi Xian looked at Zhen Hai with a helpless expression, but ultimately chose to stay.

Based on her understanding of Zhenhai, she knew that once she chose to leave...

So, the other party will then use other methods to achieve this goal.

But I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to accept that process.

"It seems we've all been outmaneuvered by Zhenhai, Yixian."

A helpless smile appeared on Rob's face.

"Alright, stop nagging me. How about this, I'll punish myself with a drink first?"

Before the two could react, Zhenhai picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"..."

"..."

Yi Xian and Luo Bo stared at each other speechlessly, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.

...

Although it was supposed to be a study of chess scores, Zhenhai's actions ultimately turned it into a game between Luo Bo and Yixian.

After the game ended in a draw between Luo Bo and Yi Xian, it was a good thing.

"Hmm, Commander is still the same as always."

Having observed the entire game, Zhenhai poured wine for the two of them and began to comment on the game.

"Although they are very aggressive, the commander always waits until he is attacked before launching a counterattack."

"But the commander always realizes the other side's hidden intentions too late."

For some reason, Luo Bo felt that Zhenhai's words had a hidden meaning.

In particular, the way Yi Xian looked at him after Zhen Hai finished speaking made Luo Bo even more convinced that Zhen Hai was "twisting" him.

"That's a very fair assessment, Commander."

Yi Xian nodded in deep agreement, and a hint of resentment appeared in her eyes as she looked at Luo Bo.

"As for Yixian, you are one too~"

"Taking a step back to advance is certainly a good strategy, but sometimes it is necessary to try several other strategies."

After being scolded by Zhenhai, Yixian looked at Zhenhai with a somewhat unfocused gaze, seemingly lost in thought.

"For example, if you attack this place directly, with this move..."

"Commander, I'm afraid we're going to be in a lot of turmoil for a while."

As he spoke, Zhenhai picked up a piece from the chessboard and placed it in another spot.

"Um..."

Yi Xian glanced at Zhenhai, then looked at the chessboard, his eyes thoughtful.

"By the way, Zhenhai, where did you get this wine? It tastes so familiar."

Taking a sip of the drink in his glass, Luo Bo felt that the subtle flavor was familiar to him.

And for some reason, I seem to have started to feel feverish from the very beginning.

"Hmm? Isn't that only natural, Commander?"

"Didn't you just drink this wine not long ago?"

"Ok?"

Chapter 806: Truth Revealed After Drinking

"Wait a minute, explain yourself clearly. Did I drink this wine?"

Due to habit, Rob rarely drinks alcohol.

Therefore, he immediately became wary of Zhenhai's statement.

"Hmm? Commander, of course I've had some. I brought it back from my trip to Sakura Empire."

Faced with Luo Bo's questioning, Zhenhai acted as if it were perfectly normal.

"Brought back from the wedding banquet?"

Rob looked at the remaining liquid in his glass with some confusion.

"Hmm~"

Seeing Zhenhai's genuine expression, Luo Bo also put away his doubts.

Although I don't have this habit in this life, before I transmigrated, taking away the unfinished drinks from wedding banquets and similar events was a basic practice.

It seems that Zhenhai is quite thrifty!

"However, this wine is indeed a bit weak."

On the other hand, after tasting the wine, Yixian also gave his evaluation of the wine brought from the Cherry Blossom Empire.

"Hehe~ If this liquor is too strong, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Commander to sit and drink with us."

Zhenhai picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and glanced at Luo Bo.

The fact that their commander doesn't like drinking is something that most ships in the port know.

"That's true."

Along with Zhenhai's gaze, Yixian also looked over, which made Luo Bo feel somewhat pressured.

He realized that Zhenhai had deliberately created this situation today.

As for the purpose, it's probably to give himself a good "reprimand".

After all, the rate at which he has recently increased his Oathship ships has indeed been quite fast.

As for why Yi-hsien was also brought along, it's probably because the two best friends are even more powerful when they're together.

"However, if the commander doesn't mind this kind of alcohol that's almost like a beverage, I think we could try making some sweet wines and stocking them up in the port."

Yi Xian's beautiful eyes flickered, and she immediately started talking about Luo's drinking.

"Even a child like Brest can drink some of this kind of thing in moderation."

"As for the commander, there shouldn't be any reason for him to refuse then, right?"

Whether it's Zhenhai or Yixian, it's obvious they're both here for me tonight.

At this moment, Rob fully demonstrated his excellent habit of not speaking if he could avoid it.

Regardless of what the two said, he simply fiddled with the chess pieces, trying his best not to reply.

...

After discussing the issue of alcohol for a while, the group stopped paying attention to it.

Whether it was Zhenhai or Yixian, their attention was mostly focused on Luo.

However, none of the three people in the room noticed that outside the window, on a tree in the courtyard, a certain planned ship was squatting.

"It's really this boring?"

Holding his knife, Bai Long sat on a tree branch, watching the three people in the room playing chess and drinking wine, and couldn't help but frown.

In Bailong's view, only intense battles can be considered meaningful and interesting activities.

However, the white dragon did not leave. It remained on the tree, watching over Rob and the other two.

"Hmph, I, Bai Long, would like to see what kind of tricks you're up to."

It's unclear when exactly, but Bailong began to care a great deal about Rob's behavior.

Today, Luo Bo's decision to change his own schedule because of Zhen Hai's invitation made her even more concerned about what Luo Bo would do tonight.

...

Meanwhile, as time passed, Rob gradually felt his body begin to heat up.

Moreover, this fever is not similar to the fever that occurs after normal alcohol consumption.

It felt more like the intense heat that I felt from the inside out after drinking the sake that Noshiro had given me.

At this moment, Luo Bo couldn't help but wonder again what kind of wine Zhen Hai had taken.

He looked at Yixian, who was sitting opposite him.

The once serene and elegant beauty now had a flushed face and her eyes were misty, as if veiled by a layer of moisture.

"Zhenhai, is there really nothing wrong with this wine?"

The burning sensation inside him grew stronger, and Rob couldn't help but gasp for breath to make himself feel a little better.

"Oh my, it looks like it's finally working?"
