The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

"Oh, Z23 is here too." Huang Chen looked over, a little surprised.

"Really?" Z23 frowned slightly. "Commander, please stop joking like that."

"The commander was just peeping." Ayanami said again, but this time Z23 did not refute, and stood aside with a pout.

Huang Chen was embarrassed. His attention was completely focused on Javelin, and he had indeed not noticed Z23 for a moment. This made him a little embarrassed. "I was just passing by, just taking a look. Are you guys... planning to go to the playground?"

"No, Commander." Javelin shook his head, full of energy again. "It's not just the Commander. Ayanami, Z23 and I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I'm showing them around the island."

"Then I found out that the commander was peeping." Ayanami said again.

"Hey!" Huang Chen took a breath and thought, "You're going to have a fight with this peeping Tom today, right?" He grabbed Ayanami and rubbed her head with both hands as if he was rubbing a Rasengan.

Of course, he wouldn't really roll Ayanami's little head into a Rasengan, but at least he made the little girl's silver hair a mess before letting go with satisfaction.

Ayanami puffed her cheeks, quite dissatisfied, "Commander, how annoying."

"Do I hate it or do you hate it?" Huang Chen poked the bulge on the little girl's cheek, which was quite elastic.

"Well, Commander, please stop bullying Ayanami." Javelin said from the side.

Huang Chen was a little dissatisfied, "Is it Ayanami who is bullying me or am I bullying Ayanami?"

As she spoke, she was about to poke Ayanami's face again. The latter panicked and hid behind Z23. The girl with short brown hair explained, "Ayanami is also a little excited to reunite with Javelin."

Huang Chen, however, was already in high spirits and wasn't going to let Ayanami go. "You're so excited that you can frame me. I'm really hurt."

"Eh——" Z23 was stunned and didn't know how to respond in this situation.

Sirius leaned over, a little flustered, "My proud master is injured? Please don't worry, just leave everything to Sirius."

As he spoke, he seemed to be about to take action against the three little guys in front of him.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay, I was just joking." Huang Chen hurriedly stopped Sirius's actions. For a moment, he lost the idea of joking and stood up and said, "Actually, I'm also visiting the island. Maybe we can go the same way."

"Oh, is it okay?" Javelin was a little surprised, and he smiled and took Huang Chen's hand, "Commander, have you been to the library? There are many interesting books in there. And I heard that His Majesty is going to hold a dinner party in the playground tonight, and the venue is being set up now. I was planning to go take a look."

It sounds like we can't go the same way... Huang Chen blinked, thinking about how to explain it, or follow the little guys to go to those places again? It's not a big problem.

Sirius looked at Huang Chen's silence for a moment, and suddenly an idea came to him. He said, "My proud master and I just came from over there for a visit. We still have not yet visited the living quarters and the warehouse."

The silver-haired girl finished speaking and looked at Huang Chen with a flattering expression.

This... Huang Chen was a little surprised and didn't know what to say. This also solved the problem.

"I see." Javelin lowered his head, feeling a little regretful.

Huang Chen comforted the little girl, "It's okay, I've already planned to rebuild the port area on the island. Javelin can take me to visit it anytime in the future."

"Ah, the Commander plans to rebuild the port area on the island." Before Javelin could say anything, Z23 was surprised. "The Commander doesn't plan to go to Area C1?"

"How is that possible?" Huang Chen laughed. "It's just rebuilding the port area. We must go to Area C1. After all, there are so many people there, including Bismarck and New Jersey. It's just that they might be late."

"Oh, I see." Z23 lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"That's it, you guys continue to visit, I want to continue to visit too." Huang Chen said with a wave of his hand.

The three little girls nodded, said hello to Huang Chen, and left. However, they seemed quite surprised by the port reconstruction and were still talking about it as they walked away.

Huang Chen looked at the small playground not far away, got to know all the Royal Expellees, and then continued walking along the path with Sirius.

He actually thought about going to the small amusement park to play for a while, not because there were so many cute little ones, but simply because he wanted to see the small amusement park.

But in the end, I thought about visiting the small island and gave up the plan.

Chapter 497 Hood

After passing the stream and the small playground, the place where the girls live is in front.

In fact, with so many people living on the island, their living arrangements are quite casual, and there are no restrictions that require them to live in a cramped dormitory.

Naturally, they could live wherever they pleased, which led Huang Chen to think that he had run into a small town. There were many low-rise rooms with separate entrances and courtyards built along the way.

They don't look like dormitories, but rather like small homes.

Huang Chen just strolled around and didn't see many people. He only saw some girls who got off the Yingfeng and were wandering around aimlessly like him.

There are a lot of open spaces around, with benches and stone benches, and the carefully cultivated bushes make Huang Chen think that this is also a park.

"Your Majesty used to live here, but it's vacant now, my proud master." Sirius walked in front and suddenly pointed to a villa and introduced it.

"It's pretty good." Huang Chen took a look and found that it was more of a family residence or a single-family house than a villa.

Including the houses we passed by before, the area they occupied was not very large. After all, the ship girls were not extravagant by nature, so most of the houses were just enough to be used.

For example, the building in front of us does not cover a large area, about 70 or 80 square meters, and has only two floors and a round roof.

Judging from the shape, we can already see the prototype of the castle. It seems that Shabai’s idea of building a castle is not just a whim.

"This is the third residence His Majesty has built. He originally planned to demolish the castle after it was completed, but due to time constraints, he temporarily put it on hold."

"Oh." Huang Chen nodded, not knowing what to say for a moment. The third house sounded a bit luxurious.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt something was wrong. Could Sirius say those words just now?

He subconsciously turned around and saw a blonde girl standing beside him, smiling at him.

She was wearing a white dress, which was slim and well-cut, showing off her graceful figure perfectly without appearing too flattering. The sun hat worn on her head was decorated with lace flowers, which embellished her golden hair like a waterfall.

The white coat casually draped over her shoulders makes the overall combination more harmonious, while the white long stockings on her slender arms highlight her elegance.

"...Hu De!" Huang Chen was a little distracted and called out the girl's name softly.

Hood blinked, covered his mouth and chuckled. "I can make the commander lose his mind for a moment. It seems that my outfit today is quite good."

"Very, very good..." Huang Chen said, forcing himself to look away. After all, he had been looking at it for so long, and it would be impolite to continue looking at it.

But it must be said that the moment the girl suddenly appeared beside Huang Chen, she was so stunning that it was a bit too much.

Hood looked at Huang Chen with a smile, "Commander, have you met His Majesty?"

"I have seen her... Anyway, the process was a bit complicated, but the result was okay." Huang Chen smiled. At this point, he couldn't help but be curious about how Shabai dealt with War-weary and Yingyong in the end.

With Silly Bai's personality, he definitely won't let them go just like that, right?

"It sounds like something interesting happened between the Commander and His Majesty?" Hood chuckled. "His Majesty can be rather capricious sometimes. I hope the Commander doesn't mind."

"It's okay, it's okay." Huang Chen shook his head and said, although Shabai is a tsundere, he is more childish and is far inferior to Hipper.

"Does Hood live here? Hmm..." Huang Chen opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

The girl was not surprised to see him just now. It was obvious that she had already known that the Windward had docked. Of course, it could also be that the girl had the elegance of a royal lady and was not surprised to see the commander suddenly appear.

"I live a little ahead. Even though His Majesty asked me to live in the castle, I'm more used to it here," Hood explained. "Actually, I wanted to chat with the Commander just now at the dock, but I ended up watching him leave with Belfa."

"Were you at the dock before?" Huang Chen was a little confused. "I didn't see you before."

Hood chuckled. "Maybe I was a little late. When I got to the dock, the commander was surrounded by children, so he didn't see me."

"Ah..." Huang Chen was a little embarrassed. It was at that time.

"Then I dealt with some matters related to the Windward's early docking with Enterprise and the others, so I didn't go to see the Commander," Hood explained. "I thought we'd see each other at the dinner, but I didn't expect to meet here. By the way, does the Commander know about the dinner tonight?"

"Oh, I know. I just passed by the playground." Huang Chen smiled, but he noticed that the blonde girl in front of him seemed to be hesitant to speak. "What does Hood want to say?"

"Nothing." Hood shook his head. "Commander, I've taken a tour of the island. How do you feel?"

"Not even a complete circle..." Huang Chen thought. He hadn't visited the warehouse and power station that Sirius mentioned just now. "But the places I've seen are pretty good, especially this place."

He said, pointing down.

"Does this refer to His Majesty's previous residence?" Hood asked puzzledly.

"It's a residence, but to be precise, it's this area of residence." Huang Chen said with a smile.

Hood blinked, a little confused.

"Has Hood visited other port areas?" Huang Chen asked.

"Other port areas? During the time when I was separated from His Majesty, I did some commissions and went to many port areas at that time." Hood thought for a while and said.

During the time when I was separated from His Majesty... Huang Chen was stunned and suddenly became distracted.

Although I used to think that Shabai had gathered a lot of Royal Ship Girls, I only thought that they were gathered together as the Shabai Royal Queen, and they had been living together since the beginning.

But now it sounds like that's not the case?

Hood and Shabai were separated for a period of time. How did they meet again later?

"Commander?" Hood stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Huang Chen's eyes. His fingers, covered in white gauntlets, were still slender.

"Ah, nothing." Huang Chen came back to his senses and continued to explain, "Since Hood has seen other port areas, he must also know the dormitories there, right?"

The Windward passed many ports and naval bases along the way. The naval bases were okay, not crowded, and basically the commander and the ship girls lived in a small building.

But in the port area where there are a few more people, the ship girls basically live in dormitories.

It’s not that the dormitory conditions are bad, in fact, they are very good, with a separate bathroom and balcony, and the area is also large. After putting down the desk and the big bed, there is still enough space left for people to dance.

But...it was still a dormitory.

Chapter 498 Are you wearing formal attire?

A dormitory is a dormitory. No matter how well it is decorated or how gorgeously you describe it, it is still a dormitory.

Huang Chen has a subconscious aversion to dormitories. Perhaps it is because he has been living on campus since junior high school. He is quite disgusted with the practice of cramming hundreds or even thousands of people into the same building.

Single rooms are barely acceptable, double rooms are a bit difficult, and quad rooms are the maximum compromise within the bottom line of humanity, only temporary accommodation, not long-term stay. Eight-person rooms and above are completely inhumane.

As for those more horrific ones, those with more than eight people, raising so many pigs in the same pigpen at the same time, is that considered animal abuse?

"Yes, I have seen it." Hood nodded slowly, but he didn't know what the commander meant.

"What do you think of those dormitories, Hu De?" Huang Chen asked. Before the girl could speak, he answered his own question. "Do you think those dormitories are too small and crowded, lacking individuality and freedom?"

"Hmm..." Hood blinked with a strange expression.

"What's wrong?" Huang Chen stopped his chatter. Even when giving a speech, the audience should be allowed to speak.

"No feeling." Hood shook his head.

"No, no feeling?" Huang Chen was stunned, feeling that all his energy and spirit had been drained away. "How could it be..."

"Well... after all, I used to live in the same dormitory as the commander mentioned in the port area, so I'm used to it?" Hood said.

"I'm used to it..." Huang Chen frowned and looked at Sirius, "What about Sirius? What do you think of the dormitory in the old port area?"

"Hmm? It's fine, except that I can't see my proud master often." Sirius said.

Hearing this, Huang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he was wrong.

Even if Hood didn't care, didn't anyone else care? If that were the case, the residential area before us wouldn't be like a small town, and Elizabeth wouldn't have built a castle.

He gathered his thoughts and regained his previous confident demeanor. "Even if Hood gets used to it, there will always be people who don't. Just like Shabai likes castles, Nagato likes temples, Essex needs an extra room to raise her eagle, and Akashi always wants to open a small shop. Everyone's needs are different, and they can't be simply summarized by the dormitory."

Hood nodded, probably knowing what the commander wanted to say.

"So, I am very happy to see that everyone here can choose the dormitory according to their own preferences." Huang Chen said with a smile and expressed his thoughts.

"I see." Hood smiled. "Then, Commander, how about you build a residence on the island as well? Or maybe just live here."

The girl pointed to the room in front.

"Hmm?" Huang Chen looked at Hood in surprise, then suddenly realized, "I haven't had time to tell you yet, but I'm actually planning to rebuild the port here."

"Ah, when did this happen?" Hood was surprised, then laughed. "I was thinking of asking the commander to stay, but I didn't expect the commander to have already made the decision."

"It was also when I met Kewei not long ago." Huang Chen scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "I was planning to discuss it with Qiye and the others, but I ended up making the decision myself. But as the commander, I still have some authority, right?"

"Of course there are." Hood chuckled. "When Guanghui returned a few days ago, she said the Commander might choose this as the port area. The sisters have been busy for many days, even going to Area C1 specifically for this purpose. It seems that there have been some results."

"Ah..." Huang Chen was stunned and opened his mouth. What should he say? He hadn't even seen Guanghui yet, just a glimpse of its awe-inspiring grandeur, and couldn't help but choose the port area?

Hood didn't notice Huang Chen's abnormality. He looked at the time and smiled, "Since the commander has made a decision, I won't bother the commander anymore."

"Forehead……"

"I have to excuse myself for a moment because of the banquet arrangements," Hood explained, suddenly chuckling, "Commander, remember to come, too. This is a welcome banquet for everyone."

"I know." Huang Chen nodded, and suddenly he understood. It turned out that this dinner was prepared by Hood. He had felt that Elizabeth would definitely not remember such a thing after she went to hunt down Warspite and Brave.

So it was Hood who was doing most of the work on the island?
