"But it's pretty quick, isn't it?" Bumblebee, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned around, coughed twice, and said in a pinched voice, "We've arrived at Fenggu Station. Passengers who want to get off, please be prepared and take your belongings with you and exit through the right door."
"This is a helicopter! It's time to get off the plane." Huang Chen rolled his eyes, picked up his luggage and slid down behind Eugen.
Bumblebee scoffed, unconcerned. Enterprise, however, instructed, "Commander, ship No. 15 will come pick you up."
"Good." Huang Chen gave a thumbs-up and retreated outside the safe zone. He watched the pitch-black steel machine slowly rise into the air again. The familiar roar sounded again, and he couldn't help but shake his head, "This plane is really too noisy."
"How about buying a smaller one?" Eugen suggested. "Enterprise and the others also dislike this plane. They think it's a bit... reckless?"
"Let's talk about it later?" Huang Chen shook his head and picked up his luggage. "Let's go. We still have time for lunch."
"Yeah." Eugen nodded, identified the direction, and walked ahead. "Let's go out and take a taxi. It will be there in about ten minutes."
Huang Chen looked around.
Eugen said that this was just a branch of ship girls, but based on the scene he saw in the sky before, this branch of ship girls was unreasonably large.
The only KanColle branch he had been to before was Fengcheng in Area C11. That place was more or less his hometown, but that KanColle branch was so small that there were only one or two people on duty.
However, the branch in front of us looks more magnificent than some headquarters.
The two of them quickly left the construction area and walked onto the street outside. There were more pedestrians and cars passing by, so Eugen reached out and hailed a taxi.
"Go to Jingquan Street."
"Okay, Jingquan Street." The driver was a middle-aged man in his thirties. After the two passengers were seated, he subconsciously changed the subject, "Jingquan Street, are we going to Yuelan Bookstore?"
Huang Chen was a little surprised, "Why do you say that?"
"Ha, you should be a commander, right?" the driver said with certainty.
"How did you tell?" Huang Chen was getting more and more puzzled. Although Eugen had silver hair, there were girls who liked to dye their hair. This couldn't be used as a criterion for judgment.
The driver shook his head. "I saw your girlfriend was so pretty, and when I heard you were going to Quanjing Street, I knew right away. You're going to salvage the ship, right? After all, that bookstore is owned by a shipgirl."
Huang Chen suddenly realized, "Were there many commanders going to salvage the ship?"
"There used to be, but now it's rare." The driver frowned slightly, as if recalling something. "I think it's been years. It seems that after a commander tried to salvage the boat but failed and got beaten up, few commanders went back."
Eugen, who was standing by, seemed to remember something and buried his head in Huang Chen's shoulder with a smile.
Huang Chen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we're not going to salvage the boat."
The driver nodded, but his expression looked unconvinced. “And you’re out of luck. That bookstore has been closed for a long time.”
"It doesn't matter, let's drive over first." Huang Chen continued.
The driver stopped talking. He knew that commanders were very stubborn and would not turn back until they hit a wall. Moreover, the traffic situation ahead was complicated, so he needed to be careful.
There was no conversation along the way. The taxi slowly stopped at the intersection of Quanjing Street. Quanjing Street is a pedestrian street and can only be parked at the intersection.
Huang Chen paid the fare and watched the car slowly disappear around the corner. He looked at Eugen, who was still smiling, and couldn't help asking, "Is it so funny?"
"I just remembered that commander. I beat him up first, and then Zeppelin. He was dissatisfied and went to the gendarmerie. It turned out that Z23 was working for the gendarmerie at that time and almost arrested him." Eugen raised his eyebrows and said.
Huang Chen was quite surprised. "Z23 also served as a military police officer?"
As for the commander who got beaten up a few times, he didn't care at all. He just let him be beaten up, and if he had the guts, he could come and ask him for compensation, and he would beat him up again.
After all, it must be the commander's fault that made Eugen take action.
"It's boring. Z23 wants to be a teacher in the academy. She is the type of person who can't sit still." Eugen shrugged and walked forward slowly.
The street wasn't busy, with only a few people scattered around. The girl looked around and sighed, "I remember when the bookstore first opened, this street was also like this, with not many people. Later, when the bookstore opened, more people came."
"Hmm?" Huang Chen was a little confused. "Can a bookstore really increase the flow of people on the street?"
"Why not?" Eugen raised an eyebrow, smiling. "Many children like to come to the bookstore to read. The children hide in the bookstore, and the adults just happen to be spending some time alone. The bookstore owner is a ship girl, so she's not afraid of encountering bad guys."
"You're treating this place as a nursery." Huang Chen shook his head.
"It's okay. Bismarck is so popular among kids... We're here." Eugen said, suddenly stopped and looked to the side.
"arrive?"
Huang Chen followed blindly and almost bumped into the girl. After he came to his senses, he subconsciously looked at the shop on the left.
An ordinary bookstore, that was his first thought.
It was indeed an ordinary bookstore, that was his second thought.
The door was closed, with a notice of closure posted on the glass, and the sign on the door read "Yuelan".
No matter which direction you look at it from, it looks unremarkable, no different from the store where I bought exercise books in elementary school.
"Let's go, I have the key." Eugen pulled Huang Chen and was about to go forward to open the door, but he felt a pause in his hand.
Looking back, Huang Chen looked serious. "How do you think Bismarck, Benson and the others will greet me?"
He emphasized the word "welcome", making it seem like it did not mean welcome literally.
"Why are you scared when you get to the door?" Eugen sighed helplessly. "Besides, with Bismarck's personality, asking you to apologize with a serious face is the limit, right?"
Chapter 710 Why don’t you turn on the light when you read?
Prince Eugen didn't care about Huang Chen's confusion and pulled him straight into the bookstore.
Push open the door and walk up the stairs, and the empty and quiet bookstore appears in sight.
Huang Chen waved his hands helplessly, pulled the girl back, and said, "I'm not saying you can't go in, don't be impatient."
"Haha, if I don't help you, you might have to hesitate until dinner time." Eugen sneered twice and didn't say anything. Instead, he introduced the bookstore, "This is the second floor, which is also the business area. There is a small door in the front leading to the third floor, which is where everyone lives."
Huang Chen looked around, watching the densely packed bookshelves disappear into the darkness ahead, and couldn't help but say, "This bookstore is so huge."
In his opinion, the size of this bookstore has already exceeded some small libraries.
"Of course it's big, otherwise how can we get all the kids around here to come and play?" Eugen asked, walking in front to lead the way.
Huang Chen paused for a moment, then followed the girl with big strides.
He was indeed a little hesitant just now, but after thinking about it, could his girl do anything bad to him?
When he was in the K area before, he heard the clues about Akagi. He felt like he was facing a great enemy and even considered bringing highly trained ship girls such as Enterprise and Anchorage.
But what actually happened? Nothing happened.
Even Akagi, who has an extreme personality, could not do anything dangerous, let alone Bismarck and Tirpitz.
He calmed down and began to look around the bookstore.
Although it is large, there is nothing special about its layout. It is nothing more than a row of tall bookshelves. However, it is covered with a dust cloth and the lights are not on, so it looks a bit dark, as if it is a desolate place.
But even so, looking at the smooth floors with the paint worn off to reveal the wooden texture inside, one can imagine how lively this place was in the past.
Huang Chen seemed to see lively children running around between the densely packed bookshelves, and then when they found interesting books, they would sit on the floor and immerse themselves in those novel and magnificent stories.
Those figures were looming, and seemed to be reading a book in the corner.
No, it’s not looming!
Huang Chen's pupils shrank and he subconsciously stopped.
The girl walking in front felt her hand pause as someone pulled her back. She couldn't help but frown slightly and turned back, "So what?"
"Look..." Huang Chen held the girl's face with both hands and directed her gaze to a dark corner in front.
The corner between the window sill and the bookcase is never exposed to sunlight all year round. Even with the lights on, it is a place that is easily overlooked, not to mention that there is no light on now.
If there is a person hiding in that corner, it is usually difficult to be found.
It's not some kind of metaphysics, it's just a simple visual guide that makes it easy for people to overlook it.
But since Huang Chen was forcing his head to look in that direction, he should have noticed something strange.
"U47! Why are you here?"
Eugen said in surprise, walked forward and turned on the light beside him.
The light was bright, and Huang Chen was able to see the corner clearly. In fact, he just saw some sneaky shadows in that direction.
She was a girl with black hair and red eyes. She had a few strands of white hair and tied her hair into a ponytail. The lower half of her face was buried in a large mask. She was wearing a black and white suit and holding a book in her hands.
Her expression was calm, even expressionless.
Even after Eugen turned on the light, he just looked at the two of them calmly, his red eyes full of gloom. After a moment, he slowly said, "Ah, it's the Commander and Prince Eugen. Long time no see."
The girl's words were calmer than her expression. Even though the person before her was the commander, Prince Eugen, her tone was no different from when she greeted her deskmate during class.
"U47." Huang Chen nodded, and was about to say something when Eugen patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry about it. U47 is just like that. Don't look at her calm appearance, but she is already very excited."
U47 nodded calmly, "Commander, you're back earlier than expected. I'm glad."
The letter said the commander would arrive in the afternoon, but unexpectedly the commander arrived at noon.
Huang Chen grinned. He really couldn't feel the girl's happiness from her calm tone, but no matter what, as long as she was not angry, it was fine.
He walked forward and stroked the girl's hair. "Why are you reading here?"
There was one thing he didn't say: "Why don't you turn on the light while you're reading? He just came over and could barely see the person. How can you read in this environment?"
U47 shook his head. "Just taking a short break. It's too noisy up there."
"Oh." Huang Chen nodded. Just think of it as you taking a rest.
Eugen looked as if she had expected it. Although she had been out for a long time, she would never forget the personalities of the Tiexue little guys.
Although U47 looks like an adult, its personality is similar to most submarines and it can be considered a little guy.
The characteristic is that he likes quiet places and fishes secretly by himself.
Reading? She can't read.
"Is it Benson and the others? I remember that among the sisters, only Raffi is relatively quiet." Eugen asked after thinking for a while.
The adults were generally reserved, and even if Zeppelin had a lot on his mind, he wouldn't usually voice it out loud. Of the little ones in the bookstore, Z35 and Z36 were the most lively, but they were currently in the harbor.
Then there are U556 and U73, which are also in the port area.
As for the remaining little guys, except for Z26 who is a bit lively, the others are relatively quiet. They are so noisy that U47 has to hide on the second floor to play games. Eugen can only think of Benson's little guys.
"No." U47 shook her head. "It's Bismarck and Zeppelin. Zeppelin has always refused to wear a maid uniform, and Bismarck has been trying to persuade her."
"Oh, huh?" Eugen was a little confused, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
Huang Chen also stared at the girl with a strange expression. He could understand Bismarck and Zeppelin quarreling, but a maid uniform? What was that?
U47 remained calm and explained, "This was Sister Bismarck's idea. She believed the Commander chose the Royal Island as the port area because the Royal Family had so many maids."
"..."
Huang Chen was speechless for a moment, and Eugen looked at him strangely, but finally couldn't help but chuckle.
U47 seemed unaware of the strange atmosphere around her and continued to explain, "So Sister Bismarck asked us to wear maid outfits, saying that the Commander would like it. Commander, do you like it?"
The girl said, standing up.
Only then did Huang Chen realize that the black and white clothes on the girl were actually a maid outfit.
He grinned, not knowing what to say.
Eugen, who was standing beside him, almost laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist. He leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Commander, do you like it?"
Chapter 711 The Eavesdropping Maid
Huang Chen was confused for a long time, not knowing whether to say that Bismarck had a unique way of thinking or that she acted decisively.
She actually came up with such an indescribable method and actually made her take actual action. According to what U47 said, now only the thorny Zeppelin is left who refuses to agree.
Doesn't this sentence mean that Bismarck herself has put on a maid's uniform?
Huang Chen blinked, feeling inexplicably expectant.
"So, the commander's real reason for identifying the port area is because of the royal maid team?" Eugen leaned on his shoulder, her voice soft and her breath as sweet as orchid, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Huang Chen's eyelids twitched, and he said, "How is that possible? Didn't I tell you before that Hehui Island is a suitable place with a good location? Plus, there wasn't much else to choose from at the time, so we decided on it."
"Is that so?" Eugen raised his eyebrows. "If there's a better place now, Commander, would you move the port there?"
What is the problem?
Huang Chen took a deep breath, feeling unwell. What on earth was going on? Why was Eugen's attack power so strong today?
U47 said nothing, staring at him silently with her scarlet eyes. Her expression remained calm, but there seemed to be some curiosity hidden beneath the calmness.
