The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

When he looked up, he realized that the person standing in front of him was not Dunkirk, but Cleveland. "Cleveland, did you go out before? I kept trying to find you but couldn't find you."

"Yeah." Cleveland nodded, then looked at Huang Chen with a complicated expression, "Montpellier..."

Huang Chen frowned, keenly realizing that something seemed amiss. He decisively said, "Wait, there may be some misunderstandings between us. I think we can exchange some information before we start discussing this."

Cleveland was stunned, staring at Huang Chen in a daze. The girl had obviously not expected Huang Chen to do this, and her emotions were incoherent, and she forgot how to speak.

After looking at Huang Chen for a while, he came to his senses and explained, "Montpellier told me that she returned the lottery ticket to me, and it was with the commander's consent."

As she spoke, the girl glared at Huang Chen with some dissatisfaction. "I always thought the Commander was out with Montpellier today, but in the afternoon I found out that not only did he not go out, but he even returned my ticket. Commander, how could you agree to such a thing?"

"I didn't agree." Huang Chen smiled helplessly. He knew that with his uncle's character, he would not tell Cleveland the truth. He just didn't expect that she would put the blame on him.

He thought for a moment and said, "The lottery ticket is still hers, she just kept it temporarily."

"Stay temporarily? What do you mean by stay temporarily?" Cleveland was puzzled.

Huang Chen said, "That is to say, she won't use it until you get another ticket from the event."

"Is that so?" Cleveland frowned slightly. "Even for me, it's hard to guarantee that I can get another lottery ticket."

"That's about it. I can't tell you the details... but as long as you get the second lottery ticket, Montpellier won't ask for it back."

The girl nodded, reluctantly agreeing with Huang Chen's words, "That's true. So what did the commander want to talk to me about?"

Huang Chen immediately told the situation about Gridley and Qingye.

"Gridley took a set of photos for me in advance. Commander, would you like to see them?"

"Of course I want to see it. No, I want to learn some camera techniques through photos." Huang Chen said seriously.

Cleveland nodded, taking what Huang Chen said as the truth, and continued, "But that was a long time ago. I didn't know much about her. I didn't expect that she was actually publishing a magazine, or the series that Princeton particularly liked."

As the girl spoke, a look of uncertainty appeared on her face. Huang Chen also felt that this plot was a bit too weird.

Cleveland didn't get any more clues here, and the two chatted for a while. Soon Dunkirk came out of the cafeteria. After they said hello, Cleveland left.

"I'm sorry, I was at a very critical place just now and couldn't leave for the moment." Duncker said to Huang Chen apologetically.

"Nothing." Huang Chen waved his hand nonchalantly and briefly explained the relevant situation to Dunkirk.

After hearing this, the latter looked at Huang Chen in shock, "I didn't expect that it was Qingye from our port area, and Gridley was also involved."

"That's about it. Now I want to change the letter I left for Guinu." Huang Chen said.

"In fact, the letter already says that the commander's name is Huang Chen..." Dunkirk muttered to himself, but suddenly stopped talking, thought for a moment, and said with a smile, "Commander, I may not be able to leave the kitchen now, how about letting Algeria go with you?"

"Me and Algeria? Guinu doesn't even recognize us, right?" Huang Chen said, looking at Dunkirk with a look full of suspicion.

The latter accepted it calmly and said firmly, "I have just met her with the commander. She must still remember the commander."

"Then I'll call a few more girls..."

"Don't bother, just go and come back quickly, Commander and Algeria are enough!" Dunkirk said quickly, then patted Huang Chen's shoulder, "Commander, wait a moment, I'll go look for Algeria."

Then she turned around and left quickly, as if she was afraid that Huang Chen would reject her the next moment.

Huang Chen sighed, looked at the girl's back, and without saying anything, chose to play with his fingers.

Dunkirk soon returned with a bewildered Algeria, who was still muttering, "Dunkirk, what's the rush? That kid named Bristol is so interesting, and her pet named DATA-857 is so cute."

However, Dunkirk didn't care what Algeria said. He pulled the girl to Huang Chen and took out an envelope. "Commander, this is a newly written letter. Please go to Algeria."

Huang Chen nodded and took the letter, then waved to Algeria, "Let's go."

The latter was stunned and looked at Dunkirk in disbelief. The girl who was good at desserts didn't say much, but just made a gesture to catch up quickly.

Huang Chen took the letter and quickly walked to the dock. Algeria followed silently behind him. Neither of them spoke, making the atmosphere a little dull for a while.

Although the printing room was in a relatively remote place, the two of them walked briskly and arrived there quickly. They found Kinu and handed the new letter to her, and then they returned the same way. Apart from saying a few words to Kinu, not a single word came out of their mouths along the way.

As they approached the commercial street, Huang Chen couldn't help but ask, "Algeria?"

"Hmm?" The girl looked over with some confusion.

"why do not you speak?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Just chatting, talking about anything. We haven't spoken all the way here, don't you feel bored?"

"No, how could I be bored when I'm with the Commander?" Algeria said in confusion, but then she thought for a moment, "Since we're talking about chatting, then... is the Commander the type to give a girl a ring if she confesses first?"

Chapter 300 Burning the bridge across the river

"I..." Huang Chen's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Algeria and wanted to scold loudly, what are you talking about? Why do you make me sound like a skilled scumbag?

However, before he could utter the words, they were stuck in his throat and he couldn't move. Isn't that what he is doing now?

As long as the girl expresses her love to me, a ring will definitely be arranged for me. Even if it cannot be given in a short time, it will be recorded in the account.

But what else can I do? Can I just watch the girls eagerly waiting for me while I pretend to say no? Am I a principled person?

He shook his head, and his mind suddenly became clear. Although he vaguely felt that his principles and bottom line were getting further away from him, he no longer cared.

"Yes, that's it." He nodded and said seriously.

"Commander, there's no need... wait, Commander, what are you talking about?" Algeria looked at Huang Chen with disbelief.

"I said yes, I am the type who will give a ring to a girl as long as she confesses her love first." Huang Chen repeated.

Algeria stopped and looked at Huang Chen up and down, his face full of disbelief and incomprehension.

Huang Chen stood in front of the girl, looking at her silently.

"I've thought about this before, whether I should…" He paused, as if searching for the right words, "should I be more reserved? After all, you know, I don't remember much from the old days in the harbor. Although I've recovered some of it, it's not much."

Algeria nodded, a strange glint in her purple-grey eyes.

"But now I understand. The girl likes me and is willing to accept my ring. So why hesitate? Don't you agree?" Huang Chen reached out, wanting to ruffle the girl's hair. However, Algeria was quite tall, so he simply patted the girl's shoulder. "So, is there anything you want to say to me?"

"I..." Algeria paused, feeling his heart pounding.

The Commander meant that if I just said those words, he would give me the ring? Could it be that easy to get the ring? All I had to do was say I liked it?

She looked at the commander in front of her, and her vision became blurry.

However, he didn't stop to think. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately said, "Of course I like the Commander. I hope the Commander can be my support, someone who can make me devote everything to him..."

The girl said this, staring at Huang Chen without blinking.

The latter chuckled and quite skillfully took out a small box from his pocket - he now carries one with him. "So, Algeria, are you willing to make this eternal vow with me?"

Huang Chen knelt on one knee and opened the small box, letting the platinum ring inside sparkle.

The silver-haired girl froze for a moment, seemingly unable to believe how sudden this had happened. She stretched out a trembling hand, perhaps trying to confirm whether what she saw was just a dream.

However, the next moment, Huang Chen held her hand, and then he took out a ring with one hand and slowly put it on the girl's fair and delicate finger.

Huang Chen let go of his hand, stood up and looked at the girl in front of him.

Algeria still held up her hand and did not take it back. She just looked at her palm silently, as if she was looking at the most beautiful treasure in the world.

"It was a bit sudden."

After a long time, the girl raised her head and smiled at Huang Chen and said.

"Sometimes things happen so suddenly." Huang Chen said.

"Commander, actually, when I arrived at the port area, it was already very powerful, right?"

Huang Chen thought about it and didn't have much influence. He remembered the ship girls he got when he first started playing the game, such as Laffey, Enterprise, and Prinz Eugen.

I also remember the last few ship girls I got in the game before I came to this world inexplicably, such as New Jersey and Shimakaze.

I also remember some powerful ship girls, such as Suzukaze, Anchorage, and Shinano.

I also remember my favorite ship girls, such as Tirpitz, Essex, and Dunkirk.

As for the girls other than these, their memories were quite vague. Some of them even couldn't remember whether they had practiced before. Perhaps they were also pulled into the fleet to carry out an attack on a certain scientific research ship.

Maybe it only happens in the backyard or during various tasks to relieve stress.

Algeria is one of them. To be honest, Huang Chen doesn’t remember when she came to the port area, nor does he know when he sent her to attack.

Even in the memories I gained from the night I reunited with the girl, there were not many about Algeria. Perhaps it was because I had little interaction with the girl when we were in the port area.

The recovered memory is only a part of it, so the effective part is even less.

So when the girl asked when she came to the port area, Huang Chen had no impression at all. However, the girl did not seem to want to get Huang Chen's answer. She just spoke in a way that was almost like talking to herself.

"When I came to the port, I met Dunkirk. She took me with her and introduced me to various aspects of the port. So, even though I came to the port with Richelieu and the others, my closest relationship was with Dunkirk."

"Dunkirk told me at the time that everything about the port was good except for one thing: there were too many people."

"I didn't understand it at first, but then I gradually understood. There are so many people in the port area, so many that you have to queue up to go out and receive a dispatch mission! It's so crowded that it's impossible to meet with the commander!"

Algeria talked on and on, and Huang Chen listened silently beside him.

"I still don't know when I started to like the Commander. It's strange, really strange. Although I thought the Commander was cute the first day I saw him, I still don't know when the word 'like' came into my head."

"But I know that when I realized my inner feelings, I never saw the commander again."

"Until the Commander disappeared. Even at the beginning, I felt that it didn't make any difference at all. I wouldn't be able to see the Commander anyway."

She seemed to be trying to tell a joke, but neither of the two people present laughed.

"Then many, many years passed, so many years that I thought I would never see the Commander again. Then the Commander suddenly appeared."

"It wasn't sudden. We first got the news from the commander, and then we waited for a few months before the commander showed up."

The girl looked at the ring on her finger, suddenly took it off, placed it on her palm, and looked at the ring in her hand with a faint look.

"I've imagined the commander giving me the ring many times, but I never thought it would be like this." She spoke slowly, her tone no longer filled with nostalgia, but rather became quite complicated.

"It's something I've been dreaming of for so many times, something many girls in the harbor have been dreaming of, but I never thought it would be so easy to get it now."

Huang Chen's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the girl's expression and tone, he inexplicably had a bad feeling.

"Commander." Algeria raised his head and looked directly at Huang Chen. His purple-gray eyes were cold and clear, and his faint gaze seemed to pierce directly into his heart.

"Commander, what do you think the feelings of shipgirls are?!"

The girl's tone was not high, just like the normal tone of conversation, but Huang Chen felt suffocated, as if thunder was ringing in his ears.

"I..." He opened his mouth and stammered for a long time, but no words came out.

Algeria didn't say anything either, and the two of them just stayed in silence for an unknown amount of time.

Huang Chencai said slowly, "I understand what Algeria means. I understand."

As he spoke, he reached out for the girl's palm. However, when she was about to touch the ring, the girl suddenly pulled her palm back and left Huang Chen's range.

"Hmm?" Huang Chen raised his head with some confusion, not saying anything.

Algeria quickly picked up the ring and put it on her finger. "What are you doing?"

"You're not..." Huang Chen looked at the girl in surprise.

"What am I not?"

"You don't want a ring?"

"Who said that? Who said I don't want it? Why shouldn't I want the ring the commander gave me?" Algeria looked at Huang Chen and said in confusion.

"Then what do you mean by what you just said?"

"Just now?" Algeria looked at Huang Chen with considerable confusion, as if the person who had just spoken was not him, but someone else.

Huang Chen was also stunned for a moment, and even began to doubt whether his previous feeling was just an illusion. After all, it was unheard of that the girl refused to accept the ring.

Even so, it was indeed a problem that he had been worried about, and it was indeed a concern in his heart.

Algeria looked at Huang Chen in confusion, then suddenly smiled, her chest undulating with the girl's laughter.

"Commander, you're so cute!"

As she spoke, she suddenly seemed to think of something, reached out and pulled Huang Chen into her arms, rubbing his face hard.

The latter felt a little subtle, as he had never experienced having his own ship girl rub his face like a child.

"Maybe some people would refuse the Commander's Ring for this reason, but definitely not me," Algeria said decisively.
