The vase is a plain green, long-necked vase with only one large white flower, followed by some scattered light yellow flowers, and a few thin strands of green grass.
The whole flower arrangement looks quite simple and elegant.
"This can live for about a week, and the water needs to be changed every day. When changing the water, you also need to... forget it, you probably won't remember it even if I tell you. I'll help you change it when the time comes." Hipper said as he adjusted his hair.
Huang Chen's lips curled up into a smile. Seeing Hipper trying to pretend that nothing happened but actually cared deeply, he couldn't help but lean over and kiss the girl on the cheek. "I understand. I'll trouble Hipper from now on."
"Ah! Ah!! What are you doing! Idiot!" Hipper was shocked, his face flushed, he pointed at Huang Chen and stammered for a long time, and finally fled in panic.
Huang Chen smiled and returned to the cab with the flower arrangement in his hand. He originally wanted to put it directly on the table, but finally placed it on the bookshelf beside him.
In addition to some books, there are also some small things placed by the ship girls on the bookshelf, such as the photos that Haitian and Haiqi took in the lake before, and a few of them were also selected and placed here.
Just as he was looking through the photos, there was another knock on the door. Huang Chen turned around and saw Tiancheng leading Mingshi and Santiago in.
Chapter 470 The truth comes to light
As soon as Tiancheng opened the door, the red-haired girl ran in impatiently, shouting energetically, "Commander, is there anything I can help you with? You can rely on me, after all, Santiago is number one!"
Huang Chen immediately smiled with relief.
Santiago is indeed a very lively girl, the kind who can brighten people's moods the moment they meet. Although she is a little clumsy, she is the kind of girl who can make people not get angry at her at all.
If you have to say she is a stupid girl, it would be better to say she is an innocent, simple and ignorant girl.
He smiled and ruffled the hair of the girl who came bounding up to him. The girl tilted her head in confusion. "Commander, are you looking for something? You can tell Santiago!"
"Nothing." Huang Chen waved his hand. How could such a lively girl be the culprit who fabricated that news?
Thinking of this, he looked aside to see what Akashi would say.
However, after searching around the cab, there was no sign of Akashi.
What's going on? I just saw three people come in together.
"Akashi?" He called out, and then he noticed the green cat girl hiding behind her chair and said weakly, "Good morning, Commander, meow~ Come to my shop today and I can give you a discount, meow~"
Huang Chen blinked, suddenly feeling a little amused and helpless. I haven't said anything yet, why do you act so suspicious?
He grabbed Mingshi and rubbed the profiteer's ears twice before continuing, "Why are you so scared?"
Santiago watched from the side for a while, and finding that there seemed to be nothing for her to do, she skipped off to greet Enterprise and Nagato.
"No meow, I'm not afraid of meow!" Mingshi said angrily, but his eyes looked around, as if he didn't dare to look at Huang Chen.
He smiled and put the profiteer down, "Okay, then you're not afraid, tell me what happened last night."
"Last night..." Akashi paused, "Nothing happened last night, meow."
"Good fellow! He's still trying to cover his ears and steal the bell." Huang Chen immediately rubbed Mingshi's little face. It must be said that the profiteer's little face was small and soft, and it felt good to touch.
Akashi looked a little embarrassed, but still said intermittently, "Today, today I won't accept your diamonds, meow~"
Really, I’m still thinking about diamonds at this time.
Huang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. For a moment, he lost the idea of bullying the girl and asked directly, "Did you hear the news you sold last night from Santiago?"
"That's it, meow! I heard it from Santiago, meow!" Upon hearing this, Akashi suddenly became energetic and said indignantly.
Santiago, who was chatting with Enterprise, immediately looked up and asked, "Commander, do you need my help?"
As he spoke, he came over skipping and jumping.
"It's not like I need help..." Huang Chen suddenly didn't know how to explain. After all, Jin Kela looked innocent and cute. Maybe she didn't even know what a schedule was?
Thinking of this, Huang Chen shook his head again. Santiago was not really a fool. He still knew a little about this kind of thing.
"That was the news about Shokaku during the pajama party last night..."
Before Huang Chen could finish his words, Santiago immediately said excitedly, "I know, I know! It's about Zuikaku and Shokaku not going to look for the commander!"
"Yeah." Huang Chen nodded and continued to ask, "How did Santiago know about this?"
"Santiago discovered it by himself! Am I smart?" Jin Kela said excitedly with a hint of showing off.
Could it be that she was the source of this news? Huang Chen was a little surprised.
Amagi sat by, listening silently. Enterprise put down his work and looked over with interest. Nagato, still buried in his work, would occasionally glance over.
Akashi immediately said excitedly, "Akashi heard it from Santiago, meow! Akashi didn't make it up, meow~"
"Don't say anything now." Huang Chen pressed the profiteer's head to stop her from speaking, then looked at Jin Kela, "You said you discovered it yourself? How did you discover it?"
In fact, when the topic came to this point, Huang Chen already had a vague guess about the whole picture of the matter. Now he continued to ask just to make things clearer.
Santiago immediately pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket. "This is it! It says Zuikaku and Shokaku won't be looking for the Commander."
Huang Chen took the note, and sure enough, it was written in Zuikaku's handwriting. It was obvious that this was the card that Zuikaku mentioned, right?
The card was supposed to be in his room, but somehow it disappeared. Now it seems that Santiago found it.
He carefully read the content and immediately understood why Santiago had misunderstood. Zuikaku had written it quite subtly, only saying that she and her sister might not go looking for the commander, or that it might be an unexpected surprise or something like that.
Santiago probably didn't understand what an unexpected surprise was, and then he remembered that Zuikaku and Shokaku might not go looking for the commander.
"Even so, this kind of news can't be told everywhere, especially to Mingshi..." Huang Chen shook his head and put the card away.
Santiago suddenly grumbled in dissatisfaction, "I didn't tell Akashi! I only told Z35! She didn't believe it at first, but then she did for some reason..."
"Oh, is that so?" Huang Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Mingshi.
The profiteer turned his gaze aside and said, "Although, although Santiago didn't tell me directly, I heard it from her, meow!"
Huang Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. You dare to sell this news that you heard from others for money?
He suddenly realized that everything was very simple. Santiago picked up the note, made some guesses, and told his good friend his guesses.
Then, Akashi heard this process, and the unscrupulous businessman sold it as Mingming's news, which led to subsequent events.
It seems that the culprit behind this incident is the unscrupulous businessman.
Huang Chen coughed twice and rubbed Mingshi's cat ears. "From now on, for a month, you have to rub his ears every day. Got it?"
"Of course, meow, I can give the commander a 50% discount meow~" Akashi muttered, still trying to fight for something.
"Not even half a red tip. If you say more, it will become two months!" Huang Chen pressed the profiteer in the palm of his hand and said with a vicious look.
Akashi had a sad face, "I, I understand, meow..."
Chapter 471 On the road
After a lot of trouble, Huang Chen finally got to the bottom of the rumor about last night's pajama party.
Of course, Mingshi, the instigator, could not escape punishment, and Huang Chen obtained the right to rub his ears at will for a month.
As for the aftermath of taking Shokaku and Zuikaku for a stroll on the Yingfeng last night, Huang Chen didn't intend to interfere too much and let them do what they wanted.
It’s not that a person of integrity has nothing to fear; after all, he is not that upright.
But it was just some gossip, and he didn't care much about it.
After all, the girls were so interested in his gossip because he was the commander, so they liked him and cared about him.
Even if they talk about it, it is out of goodwill, not malicious ridicule.
He could naturally accept this situation. When he saw those strange news, he was not angry, but was just amused.
Just like Mingshi this time, Huang Chen was not too angry. He was just quite surprised at first and wanted to figure out the cause of the incident.
For example, he always knew that after he ordered Akashi not to sell the Commander's figures last time, that guy turned around and bought novels with the Commander as the protagonist with Shiranui.
He didn't continue to care about her. After all, given Akashi's nature, it was impossible for him to stop her from selling these things. It would be better to keep things in a delicate balance within a range that everyone could accept.
Of course, it’s not because he read those novels and thought they were well written.
There are also some specific details that don't need to be worried about, such as the card that Zuikaku originally stuffed into Huang Chen's room, so how did Santiago pick it up? Or for example, who wrote those novels with him as the protagonist?
Huang Chen was too lazy to discuss these issues.
After rubbing Akashi's ear for a while, it was almost time for lunch, so Huang Chen let the guy go. The profiteer left the cab, mumbling something about how he had lost a lot this time.
Santiago, on the other hand, still looked very confused, as if she had no idea what the commander wanted her to do. But even so, it did not affect her and she was still very happy.
Although Huang Chen was embarrassed, he still needed to eat lunch. In fact, he was not particularly worried about the girls in the port area. Except for a carefree guy like Wichita, no one would come up to him and ask how it felt to be with Shokaku and Zuikaku last night.
Even though the other girls looked at him and laughed, as long as he was thick-skinned, it wouldn't be a big problem.
The key point is that it was a bit awkward when I met Shokaku and Zuikaku.
In the morning, several people just mechanically said hello and left the room, then went to do their own things.
He was just drunk last night and seemed to be doing whatever he wanted, but he didn't lose his memory. I remember exactly what he said and did.
Of course, he also remembered that he had clearly said at the beginning that he would respect Xianghe's ideas. If she didn't want to, he wouldn't force her. Then he led the girl back to his room in a daze.
When I think about it carefully, it feels a bit despicable.
Fortunately, he did not meet Shokaku and Zuikaku during the meal. After lunch, he returned to the room for a nap. However, Hipper came to him again and said that the airplane model had been assembled.
Huang Chen put it on the desk, then bullied the little girl a little and went to the driver's cab contentedly.
Because I was still a little embarrassed, I didn't go to play with the girls in the afternoon as usual, but hid in the cab and pretended to work.
In the evening, I heard that Gridley and Aoba did not escape Akagi's clutches. They were eventually caught and hung on the railing at the stern of the Windward.
Huang Chen went to check it out with great interest, only to discover it was just fake news. It seemed that Chicheng had indeed caught him, but what he ultimately did was unknown.
However, after dinner, Gridley's newspaper was published again very quickly. On the front page, where the special section for Little Gaga used to be, there appeared an article about how Akagi deeply loved the commander.
After reading it, Huang Chen sighed that Hong Kong journalists really have no moral integrity, and then put the newspaper aside.
The next few days passed in such an uneventful manner. He had originally thought that the matter between Shokaku and Zuikaku would cause some waves in the port area.
At least it had a certain impact on the group of people on the marriage ship, but in the end it seemed that nothing happened.
The next day, the girls turned their attention to other interesting things, such as Haifeng and the new changes that Haiqi's return brought to the cafeteria.
At the same time, although Shokaku seemed very shy when the incident happened, he seemed particularly confident when he saw her the next day. It is said that he even ran to Akagi to show off.
Huang Chen didn't know the specific details.
The Windward followed the predetermined route to area C3. It encountered no Sirens and no other accidents along the way. Naturally, it stopped at the ship girl's headquarters in area C4 to rest for half a day.
At the same time, he did not forget to promote Huang Chen's unique recruitment advertisement, but this recruitment seems to have no effect so far, and no girl has come back after seeing the advertisement.
However, Huang Chen thought that it might be because the Windward was still on the road, so even if the girls saw the advertisement, they could not catch up for a while. After all, Richelieu and the others who knew the news a long time ago had not caught up yet.
In short, everything was peaceful and harmonious. Blücher was completely integrated into the port area. Apart from asking Huang Chen to hug him every day, he also got along well with Hipper and others.
Harbin seemed to have forgotten that she was still a liberty ship girl, and she wandered around the Windward with Wichita arm in arm every day.
Huang Chen watched as the Windward was getting closer and closer to its destination day by day, and he couldn't wait to meet the blond dwarf.
……
Guanghui gently leaped from the sea and stepped onto the solid ground. The long voyage made her look a little dusty. She smoothed her hair and smiled softly at the girl with medium-length pink hair who was trotting towards her from a distance. "Hello, Suffolk, are you on duty today?"
"Ah! It's Miss Glorious!" Suffolk breathed a sigh of relief and looked behind Glorious. "There's also Miss Unicorn and Edinburgh. I thought they were enemies."
Guanghui smiled but said nothing. However, Edinburgh immediately jumped out and said, "Suffolk, you're being lazy again!"
"No, no, I was just observing, observing." Suffolk faltered and explained, suddenly feeling a little strange. He looked around and said, "Why don't I see Newcastle? Am I mistaken? I clearly remember that she was with you..."
"No," Guanghui said with a smile, and walked forward slowly. "Where is His Majesty now? Guanghui has brought back good news this time."
Chapter 472 Statue
Edinburgh was left to take over Suffolk's work, while the rest went to find Her Majesty Elizabeth
Walking on the familiar path, Guanghui walked briskly with a smile on his face.
"Have Suffolk, Hood and the others returned?"
"Miss Hood..." Suffolk turned around and thought for a moment. "She came back yesterday or the day before yesterday. The invitation failed."
Guanghui chuckled when he heard this. "If Hood goes to invite Bismarck and the others, there's no way they'll succeed, right?"
Suffolk laughed upon hearing this, and then suddenly seemed to have thought of something, looking around, "Aren't the Sakura Empire companions coming over too? And Newcastle..."
As she said this, the pink-haired girl frowned slightly, as if such thinking was a huge challenge for her.
