The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Jiang Feng took out a towel from somewhere and wiped the sweat off Huang Chen's face. "Commander, you're very good. It's rare for someone to do so well the first time."

Huang Chen's face was a little red, perhaps because of the fire, or because he had just boasted that he could do it and was immediately slapped in the face, or perhaps because the little fox wiped his face with a towel, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"Can you turn up the fire a little bit? We're going to fry the fish." Haifeng said while standing in front of the stove.

Huang Chen nodded immediately, "Okay."

After saying that, he raised the fire tongs and reached towards the stove. Jiang Feng beside him gently took Huang Chen's hand and said, "Let me do it. Commander, go out and rest for a while. It's too hot here."

Huang Chen felt a little embarrassed and said, "I wanted to help you."

But he still put down the tongs in his hand and stood up.

Jiang Feng took it, sat on a small stool, and skillfully began to add firewood. Hai Feng poured oil into the pot, and there was a pickled fish on the stove.

Huang Chen looked for a while and found that he seemed to be a bit of a hindrance here, so he said goodbye to the two of them and turned to leave.

The rain had become much lighter. When Huang Chen walked into the living room, he found Cleveland alone inside.

Chapter 377 Small talk

The girl was small, and Huang Chen glanced at her when he passed by, thinking it was Shanfeng or Mutsu. But when he looked closely, he found out it was Kedie.

She sat in a chair with a book in her arms and a cup of tea beside her.

Huang Chen walked in and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Commander?" Cleveland raised his head and waved the book in his hand. It had a white cover and read "The Complete Works of Volga Detectives."

"Detective novel?" Huang Chen raised his eyebrows, then froze for a moment before carefully examining the cover. "This Volga..."

"Yes, the protagonist of this novel is a ship girl named Volga." Cliff nodded.

Huang Chen walked to the table and sat down. With so many ship girls in the world, it was not surprising that there were novels with ship girls as the protagonists.

"I found it in my room," Cleveland explained. "I was a little bored, so I just took a look. I didn't expect it to be so interesting."

Huang Chen grinned, "Detective novels are quite interesting. I used to like reading detective novels too."

As he spoke, the image of a Death God elementary school student suddenly appeared in his mind, and he suddenly laughed.

Cleveland was a little confused and looked at Huang Chen with his head tilted in confusion.

The latter coughed twice and waved his hand. "Nothing, you said you found this book in the room?"

He felt that the wording was rather strange. The book looked relatively new and didn't seem like it had been there for a long time. How could it be found in a room that hadn't been lived in for many years?

Huang Chen raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of something. Could it be that someone deliberately hid there?

Cleveland looked at Huang Chen's expression and understood a little. He closed the letter awkwardly and said with an awkward smile, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to take it out like this?"

"It doesn't matter." Huang Chen narrowed his eyes. "If others ask, just say you bought it yourself."

Cleveland smiled while holding the book, and understood what Huang Chen meant.

I said I bought it myself, and no one would think there was anything wrong except those who secretly hid the book.

For the book collector, it is like creating something out of nothing. She has an extra teammate to cover for her. Putting a book that can only be hidden in the open is also beneficial.

"Okay." Cleveland nodded, opened the book again and began to read with relish.

Huang Chen was a little bored, so he poured himself a cup of tea and then crossed his arms and looked at the girl beside him.

Her blond hair still flowed unruly behind her, and she had a small ponytail on one side of her head. She also wore a white cape that she almost never took off.

In Huang Chen's impression, this girl was wearing this shawl almost every time he saw her. Even though the weather was so hot now, the girl still wore this shawl.

The shawl fell down, covering the girl's upper body, but her long legs were exposed, leaning against the side. Although Dad Ke was very manly, he would not cross his legs when sitting down.

Cleveland was reading a book, but he would turn his head slightly from time to time and glance at Huang Chen out of the corner of his eye.

Noticing that Huang Chen had been staring at her almost straight, she finally turned her head and asked, seemingly a little angrily, "Commander?"

"Um..." Huang Chen pursed his lips, "I'm sorry."

"What's wrong?" Cleveland was stunned. He couldn't think of how to respond to this unexpected question.

Huang Chen opened his mouth and found that he had not yet chosen his words, but suddenly he noticed that the girl in front of him had a red cheek and her eyes were a little evasive.

This made him stunned. He hadn't said anything yet, had he?

"Um..." He coughed, but found that Cleveland trembled with his cough and shrank his neck. He whispered, "Commander, it's not appropriate to do this in public, right? Even I would be shy..."

Huang Chen's eyes widened, and he looked at the shy girl in front of him as if he had seen a ghost. "Where are you going? I want to talk about the lottery ticket."

"Ah." Cleveland muttered, then came to his senses, sat up straight, and said a little embarrassedly, "Um, Commander, what I said before could easily lead to misunderstanding..."

"You're the one who wants to misunderstand, aren't you?" Huang Chen laughed, shook his head helplessly, and then said apologetically, "I wanted to talk about the lottery ticket, but now it seems that I'm afraid I can't find a suitable time to date you."

"Ah, is that all?" Cleveland laughed, then shook his head. "It doesn't matter. In fact, I knew it when I asked him to come out. I just reunited with Nagato and the others. Even the Commander wouldn't be able to find time to go out with me alone, right?"

Huang Chen grinned awkwardly. He felt that something was a little strange about Cleveland, but he couldn't find anything unusual for a while.

The girl raised her head, blinking her red eyes. "It's okay, actually. Coming out with the Commander this time can be considered a date."

"That won't do." Huang Chen shook his head. Dad Ke is not a little girl.

The lottery ticket given to little Cleveland was used up. It was supposed to be a one-day date, but in the end the little girl went on an adventure for half a day.

At least for the eldest girl, this lottery ticket must play a good role.

You can't lose your authority before you even start, right?

"Commander, you have the final say." Cleveland smiled and did not refuse.

Footsteps were heard outside the reception room, and Haifeng walked in with a plate in hand. "Commander, everything is ready. You can eat now."

Huang Chen looked over and saw fried fish on the plate.

Haifeng put the plate on the table and turned to trot out. Cleveland stood up and gathered the clothes on his arms, "I'll help serve the food."

Huang Chen nodded and followed the girl out, "Then I'll go wake up those little ones who haven't gotten up yet."

I don’t know if Mutsu and Yamakaze have gotten up yet, but that evil guy must still be sleeping in.

The two separated at the door of the living room, and Huang Chen walked towards the rooms of the little ones. On the way, he passed by Tiancheng and Nagato's rooms and called out to them.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Mutsu and Shanfeng had already gotten up. When Huang Chen walked to the door of their room, the little girl was washing her face.

After all, they eat around this time every day and have long been accustomed to it.

Huang Chen walked to the vicious room and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

He was probably still asleep... He thought as he pushed open the door. The rooms in the shrine all had similar layouts.

There is a table in the room at the entrance, and the real bedroom is behind the curtain on the side.

He walked straight behind the door curtain, shouting, "Vicious, time to eat! The sun is shining on your butt!"

However, just as he was about to lift the door curtain, Vicious, dressed in white pajamas, walked out of the door yawning.

Huang Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise, "You're awake... Hurry up and wash up and change clothes. It's time for dinner."

After saying that, he walked towards the door.

Evil nodded, watching Huang Chen walk out and close the door, he sighed and muttered to himself, "Almost..."

Chapter 378 Please Accompany Me

Looking at the closed door, Evil sighed with some regret.

She lifted the door curtain and walked into the room. A figure who looked similar to Evil immediately poked his head out from the bed.

The two looked quite similar, both with long white hair and aqua blue eyes. They wore similar white pajamas and looked soft.

If Huang Chen saw it, he would think it was another vicious one.

But there are some differences. The girl on the bed has a few strands of black hair on her forehead and right side. And compared to Evil, the girl's face is rounder and more chubby.

The expression on his face was no longer as lazy as when he was vicious, but looked more serious and solemn.

"Vicious, Commander Huang Chen is gone?" The girl leaned her head out and said, with a hint of inexplicable admiration and vigilance on her face.

"Yes." Evil nodded and picked up the clothes piled at the foot of the bed. "I'm going to eat. I'll bring it back to you later."

The girl immediately raised her head and said with a hint of pride, "No need. As a knight, it's okay to go without food for a day or two."

Although she said so, the girl's stomach rumbled at the right time.

A smile appeared on his vicious face. "I'll bring you breakfast. Besides, eating well is the only way to stay in peak condition."

The girl's eyes lit up and she nodded in agreement, "Please bring me a copy."

Vicious put on her clothes and patted the hem of her skirt, "Actually, you can go with me. The Commander won't mind."

The girl nodded. "Although Commander Huang Chen is a very powerful and responsible commander, but..."

There was a hint of hesitation on her face, as if she was about to agree or refuse.

Evil's eyes lit up and he immediately added, "Only through face-to-face conversation can we gain a deeper understanding of the other person's character and better learn from their strengths."

The girl's face showed obvious confusion. "I know... After all, we should wait a while. How about waiting until noon?"

"It's okay, I'll bring you one." A hint of regret appeared on the vicious little face, but it was replaced by determination in an instant. It's okay, just wait until noon.

……

Although it is a reception room, this is where people actually eat on weekdays, so it’s no problem to call it a restaurant.

Everyone was sitting around a long table, chatting casually. Huang Chen looked at Shan Shan who had arrived late and acted viciously. "If you don't come soon, I won't wait for you."

Evil pouted, said nothing, and ran to the table and sat down obediently.

Huang Chen looked at everyone, feeling an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. In the past, when he was on the Windward, there were so many people that it was difficult to eat at the same table, and it was also difficult to eat together.

And like today, everyone gathered around the table, waiting for the arrival of evil. This waiting process gave Huang Chen a different feeling.

No one spoke during the meal. However, when Huang Chen was holding the bowl, he saw the Sakura Empire shipgirls clasping their hands together and whispering, "I'm about to start." He felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The meal was almost over. Haifeng looked at the empty plates on the table and reflected, "It seems that the side dishes are not enough."

"It's almost the same. It's just a side dish after all." Huang Chen shook his head, stood up and started to clean up the dishes, but unexpectedly found that Evil had not finished eating.

"I'll go to my room to eat!" The little girl stood up, holding the bowl and ran away.

Huang Chen shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless, but not caring, and started packing up his things. Jiang Feng and Hai Feng also came up to help, and soon they had cleaned up the dishes in the kitchen.

After washing my face, the heavy rain had almost stopped. The square in front of the worship hall was paved with bluestone, which was now filled with potholes filled with rainwater and many fallen leaves in the wind and rain.

Shanfeng and other little girls were sweeping the square with a big broom. Even when they were working, the little ones were still full of energy.

Although we had planned to go to the city today, it had just rained heavily and the dirt roads in the mountains were full of mud and water. So this plan was postponed.

Huang Chen sat in the worship hall feeling somewhat bored, watching the little girls actively cleaning the square. He felt a little conflicted as he had promised Haifeng that he would buy her eggs, but now it was muddy outside and he didn't want to go out.

Just as he was struggling, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

Turning around, he saw Cleveland approaching and immediately said with a smile, "Why aren't you reading?"

"I've finished reading it." Cleveland smiled and stood next to Huang Chen. The latter stood up, patted his clothes, and stretched. "That's perfect. I was planning to go to the city to sell some vegetables. There's nothing left in the kitchen. How about you come with me?"

Cleveland was a little surprised. "Now? Just the two of us?"

"Just the two of us!" Huang Chen turned around and said, but unexpectedly found that Tiancheng was standing not far away with a basket in his hand.

"Oh, Master, do you also want to go buy groceries?" Tiancheng walked over with a chuckle. Huang Chen blinked, a little embarrassed, "Yes, that's the plan. You're going too..."

"Since the Master wants to go, then I'll leave it to the Master." Tian Cheng handed over the basket in his hand and a list, "Please, Master."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Huang Chen and smiled at Cleveland beside him.

Huang Chen scratched his head, feeling that Tiancheng's gaze was a little strange. He didn't pay much attention to it and looked at Cleveland beside him. "Shall we go?"

The two walked across the square and along the approach to the shrine, leaving the dark blue torii gate. Outside the torii gate was a muddy road, which looked particularly muddy after the rain.

Huang Chen walked carefully on some small stones. Even so, when the two of them reached where the car was parked, their shoes and trouser legs were covered with mud.

"Actually, it's not suitable to go out after it rained." Huang Chen said with a smile, but when they were eating just now, Haifeng, who was sitting at the table, kept looking at the tamagoyaki and himself.

And if I don’t buy some meat and other ingredients, I’ll only be able to eat stewed fish, fried fish, and tamagoyaki for lunch, and of course the resentful gaze of the sea breeze.
