The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Thinking of this, he took a breath of cold air.

"Don't be weird, they just want to save the Commander some travel time." Enterprise couldn't help but chuckle at this. "Benson's city and Bismarck's city are more than a day's journey apart. No matter which one the Commander goes to first, the other will have to wait for a while. So after discussing it, they gathered together."

Huang Chen nodded and chuckled, "I see. I thought they had some strange plans and ideas..."

As he was speaking, he found that Qiye's eyes were calm, with only a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"…Do they really have a plan?"

"How should I put it... maybe it seems more urgent?"

More urgent… Huang Chen thought about it briefly and decided that if it was just more urgent, there would be no problem. He stopped asking and said in a deep voice, "I understand."

"Then I'll be leaving first." Enterprise nodded and looked at Plymouth beside him.

The latter stepped forward and shook Huang Chen's hand, "Commander, please cheer up. I believe no one will blame you."

Although it was built not long ago, New Jersey told the girl about the current situation of the port area, so she also knew the situation of Benson and Bismarck.

"I don't... Thank you, Plymouth." Huang Chen wanted to deny it, but looking at the girl's sincere eyes, he subconsciously thanked her.

Plymouth smiled gently, "When I get a chance, I'll try to meet with Benson and Bismarck."

"Although I'm not clear on the specific details, I believe that as all of you are Minato's comrades, you can understand the Commander's reasons."

"...There's no need to go to this extent." Huang Chen shook his head and patted the girl's shoulder.

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Enterprise and said, "Um, is anyone in the port area going to look for Bismarck and the others recently? Otherwise, I'll write them another letter."

Although he would not go there in person, he could send letters. He had corresponded with Benson and Bismarck before, and he had written once before coming to the college and asked the company to help deliver it.

I haven’t written one since I came to the college. Now that the company is here, I might as well write one.

"Write a letter? That's fine." Enterprise nodded.

New Jersey was a little confused, "Why do companies have to send letters?"

"Because it's faster this way?" Huang Chen blinked, not quite understanding what New Jersey meant by this question.

It is not very convenient to send a letter from the post office, it may take three to five days. If a girl from the port area makes a trip, it can be delivered in one or two days.

"But the college has a telegraph station? It would only take about an hour to send it directly, right? Ning Yang wouldn't be much faster, right?" New Jersey asked doubtfully.

The companies were also a little surprised, "So the college has it?"

"Telegraph station?" Huang Chen was also stunned. "Isn't this thing only used for communication between the headquarters of the ship girls?"

Ever since he found the company, he has always known that there are many girls living in Area C1, but he has never been able to contact them - letters are too slow, and by the time they arrive, he may have already arrived.

Although cross-regional communication methods such as telegraphs are fast, they are not flexible and can only be sent from one ship girl headquarters to another.

For example, the company previously sent a telegram from area K to area C1 to find St. Louis.

But now New Jersey says that it can send telegrams directly to Bismarck, and there is even a telegraph station in the college!

Huang Chen immediately felt confused.

"That's right." Enterprise blinked, immediately understanding his confusion and explaining, "The technological level of the C1 area is higher than other areas, and it develops faster."

"In the past, like in other regions, telegraphs could only be used between headquarters. But in recent years, development has been rapid, and the cost of telegraph machines has also dropped."

"So telegraphs were no longer limited to the headquarters. Telegraph offices were set up in various branches and some larger cities."

"There just happens to be one in the city where Bismarck and the others are."

Huang Chen was stunned when he heard this, "Is that so? Why didn't you tell me before?"

"Actually, this was written in the report submitted to the commander before." Enterprise said after a moment's silence.

Huang Chen fell silent after hearing this. It was written in the previous report... He basically didn't read the content of the report, he just signed his name and that was it.

"Very well, I'll go to the telegraph station and send the message myself this afternoon."

He shook his head, actually it wasn't a big deal.

It doesn’t matter whether the telegraph office exists or not, or whether Huang Chen knows about it or not. As long as the girls know about it, there is no problem.

He didn't know about this before, but he didn't stop communicating with Benson and Bismarck.

But area C1 is indeed different from other areas.

Chapter 702 Everyone Follow Me

Enterprise set off, leaving the college with Plymouth.

Huang Chen looked at the time and saw that there was still some time before the afternoon class, so he and New Jersey walked towards the dormitory.

"By the way, where is the college's telegraph station?"

Huang Chen asked casually while walking on the road.

"Well, from Commercial Street in the direction of the research institute, it's just a small site and doesn't look very big." New Jersey explained.

Huang Chen recalled briefly.

In addition to the teaching buildings, the college naturally also has a research institute dedicated to experimental research, but it is located in a relatively remote area and generally no one goes in that direction.

Except for the first day he came to the college, he went to those places and never went there again.

"Then I'll write the letter first, and you can help me send it at the telegraph station in the afternoon." Huang Chen said casually.

New Jersey nodded. Although school had started and he had to go to work, he still had time to send a telegram.

The two of them soon reached the ginkgo grove. Because school had started, the teachers who had been on vacation had returned, and there were more and more people on the path.

As the deputy director of the Battle Series Department, New Jersey is naturally no unknown person, and many teachers know her.

Seeing the former strong and self-reliant director holding hands with a strange commander, everyone was surprised and even whispered to each other.

"We're being watched." Huang Chen was shy and a little embarrassed.

Most of these teachers just returned to the college in the past two days, and he happened to be in the hospital during these two days, so this was the first time he was watched by onlookers.

"Don't worry, honey. I'll go talk to them." New Jersey chuckled.

"There's no need..."

Before Huang Chen could finish his words, he saw the girl take two steps forward, then raised her hand and shouted, "Everyone! Look at me, I have an announcement!"

Suddenly, those furtive glances became open, and those who were still whispering stopped talking and looked over curiously.

Huang Chen's body trembled as he was pulled over by the girl. Then, the girl's smiling voice rang in his ears, "This is my commander! I'm about to resign and leave the academy!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion all around, and the noisy sounds resonated with each other, appearing chaotic.

"Amazing!"

"Director New Jersey, please don't forget about us."

"The director actually found the commander. I thought you would stay in the academy forever."

"That's the director's commander! I'm so envious."

"Director New Jersey is gone, so I'll have to work overtime... or maybe I'll just quit."

And among them, there are more blessings for New Jersey.

"The Director must be happy!"

"If the commander bullies you, you must return to the academy and tell us!"

New Jersey responded with a smile, his face filled with joy, and greeted everyone one by one. Huang Chen stood aside helplessly, accepting the onlookers like an orangutan in the zoo.

Fortunately, the crowd finally came to an end. After a while, the crowd dispersed, and New Jersey and Huang Chen continued walking towards the dormitory building.

"I didn't expect you to be so popular." Huang Chen said, and looked back. There was actually a girl standing on the side of the road waving at him.

"It's normal. There are only a few teachers in the college. We see them every day. At least we know each other." New Jersey chuckled.

Huang Chen nodded, but then felt a little strange. "I just noticed that they seemed quite envious. What's going on?"

He saw clearly that in addition to the blessings for New Jersey, many ship girls also showed obvious envy.

He is self-aware and certainly doesn't think that those girls want to be his ship girls. He can only envy the fact that they have found a commander.

But aren't we all teachers at the academy? Are there not enough commanders in the academy?

"Ha, well, for a teacher, finding a commander is indeed quite troublesome." New Jersey chuckled. "It's impossible to find one of your own students, right? Besides, after seeing so many outstanding people, your standards have become higher, and an outside commander may not be so impressed."

"The more powerful the teachers are, the more likely they are to think that way, so they think I'm going to stay at the academy forever. But... Musashi might really be going to stay at the academy forever."

Huang Chen shook his head. What was going on?

The two walked to Building No. 5 and saw a girl with long dark brown hair wandering downstairs from a distance.

After seeing the two, he immediately showed his joy and ran over excitedly, "Captain! Teacher New Jersey."

"Royal Wealth?" Huang Chen was stunned, quite surprised. "Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Royal Fortune suddenly felt as if they had been greatly wronged and complained, "I rushed here immediately after class, but the captain was not there, and I didn't know where to find him, so I have been waiting here."

"What's the matter with you coming to see me?" Huang Chen asked doubtfully, but the girl was stunned and stroked the hair beside her ear blankly. "Nothing, I was just a little bored, so I came to see the captain..."

Huang Chen glanced at the girl and immediately understood what she meant.

This guy probably didn't know anyone else in the college, and he was bored after class, so he came here.

"Okay, come up and sit for a while." He shook his head and was about to go upstairs when he remembered something, "You said you came here after class, so have you eaten yet?"

"No." Royal Fortune shook his head neatly and smiled brightly.

Huang Chen didn't want to comment on this silly smile, but New Jersey couldn't help but laugh out loud. "It's okay, I have some instant noodles. Let's just make do with it today. If you want to come see Honey next time, you can come earlier and then we can all go eat together."

"Okay." Royal Fortune nodded, his smile becoming brighter... and more adorable.

A bowl of instant noodles was prepared for Miss Pirate, and everyone chatted and rested for a while, as the afternoon class was almost time.

Huang Chen still walked to the classroom as the bell rang. Although he had not attended class for a day and a half, the commander participating in the training did not notice him.

After all, there were nearly a hundred people in the classroom, and he didn't talk to others, so he was basically invisible.

The last class in the afternoon was Musashi's, so Huang Chen took the opportunity to tell her about the strange resonance scene he saw when he was building it, but Musashi didn't have any ideas, so he just said that he could ask his friends.

Huang Chen felt that this was just a polite remark.

When I walked out of the classroom after school, New Jersey was already waiting not far away, as well as Royal Wealth who was there to eat for free.

The next few days were the same. Although there was a guy who came to eat for free, most of the time was just the two of them, him and New Jersey.

The content of the course has become more in-depth, from basic common sense to some key points of naval warfare, some combat cases, etc.

Huang Chen's attitude also became serious and he learned a lot.

Time passed quickly and the day of the awarding ceremony arrived.

Chapter 703 Medal Ceremony

The award ceremony was scheduled for a Monday.

The course ended last weekend, and the so-called training test was conducted in the morning, but the final results will not be released until after the awarding ceremony.

In other words, grades are not important at all and are really just a reference.

The afternoon was the final step of the training, the awarding ceremony. Although New Jersey said the entire ceremony was simple and quick, Huang Chen couldn't help but feel nervous when the moment really approached.

After lunch, he was still very energetic. Rarely did he take a nap. Instead, he stood in front of the dressing mirror in his clean white navy uniform, carefully examining himself in the mirror.

"There should be no problem."

"I've already told you honey, there's no problem. Why don't you think about where to celebrate tonight!" New Jersey, also wearing a white uniform, leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed and laughed.

This is the uniform of the college teachers. Teachers teaching training classes don’t need to worry about it. There are dress requirements for classes during normal teaching hours in the college.

Whether it is cadets, their ship girls or teachers, they are required to wear uniforms.

The teacher's uniform is similar to the navy uniform, but the style is slightly different from the commander's uniform, but it is only a little different and you can't see it unless you look closely.

At the same time, the position of the military rank is a pattern composed of golden anchors and stars, which is somewhat similar to that of major general.

New Jersey has not completely resigned, but she is no longer teaching. Logically, there is no need to wear it, but the girl still insists on wearing the uniform during this period.

Of course Huang Chen would not refuse. It must be said that the girl in uniform looked different.

"Just eat something at home. There's not much good place to celebrate in the academy." He shook his head, his eyes still fixed on the corner of his clothes. He felt as if there was a thread there, and he couldn't help but reach out to straighten it out.
