The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Huang Chen listened to the other party's words in a daze. Before he could react, he saw her stuff the flag into his hand and then disappear.

The commander who sprained his ankle was still sitting on the ground, and his ship girl was helping him bandage his ankle.

Seeing Huang Chen coming over, he immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, brother. You've been a great help."

Several other commanders and ship girls on the side also said, "Don't worry, this job is quite simple. Just follow us and wave the flag when the time comes."

"Uh, it's okay." Huang Chen felt helpless and confused, but didn't know what to say.

But after a moment, the silver-haired minister came back with a commander's uniform and handed it to Huang Chen.

Before Huang Chen could say anything, the silver-haired minister disappeared again.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at New Jersey and the others with somewhat amused expressions. Finally, he had no choice but to change his clothes and join the team.

The task was indeed simple. He soon understood what he needed to do and followed the main force for a rehearsal.

The silver-haired minister nodded contentedly and said, holding the microphone, "Very good. Now everyone gather at the dock."

Everyone in the square immediately headed towards the dock. Huang Chen finally couldn't help himself and took this opportunity to ask the commander next to him, "What the hell are we doing here?"

"A welcome ceremony!"

"Who's welcome?"

"Major General Huang Chen."

"who?!!"

Chapter 972 Who else should I scold if not him?

The welcoming team quickly arrived at the dock.

Huang Chen wanted to leave the team several times to explain the situation to the silver-haired minister, but he never found a suitable opportunity.

Several people from New Jersey were hanging far at the back of the team, and didn't seem to have any intention of going forward to help him out.

Rather, she had a bright smile on her face and was waving her hands in encouragement, "Come on, honey!"

The thin commander next to him turned his head and looked around, finally his eyes fell on Huang Chen, revealing an envious look, "Your ship girl seems to have a good relationship with you?"

"It's okay." Huang Chen turned his head and glared at the girl from a distance, but saw that not only New Jersey, but also Anchorage and Naka waved to him and shouted "Come on", and Xuefeng did the same.

The emaciated commander beside him suddenly showed a growing expression of envy. "I actually came all the way here to cheer you on. I'd rather sleep in at home than come."

Huang Chen didn't know what to say and could only give an awkward but polite smile.

However, the thin commander seemed to have been unleashed and continued to chatter, "That blue-haired ship girl looks very impressive too. Is she a battleship?"

"Yes."

"How much is your training level?"

"Well...it's okay." Huang Chen felt that it was definitely not appropriate to tell the truth at this time, but if he wanted to make up a lie, he couldn't think of a more appropriate way to say it.

"Alright? Not quite. As a commander, you must fully understand your shipgirls. This is the front line!"

Hearing Huang Chen's answer, the commander immediately revealed a rather dissatisfied expression, shook his head slightly, and then smiled again, "I forgot you're a newcomer, but since it's a battleship, maybe you can go to the minister to learn from him."

"Minister?" Huang Chen was stunned. His eyes passed over the crowd and saw the impetuous silver-haired ship girl outside.

With short hair and blue eyes, he was wearing a modified commander's naval uniform. If it was a battleship, Huang Chen thought it was Washington.

Too bad it wasn't his Washington.

The thin commander beside him continued, "The Minister is the strongest battleship in our area. It is said that he has awakened three times! The fourth time is coming soon."

"The fourth time?" Huang Chen was subconsciously stunned.

"Mind awakening? You don't know this either?" The thin commander was also stunned.

Huang Chen waved his hand unhappily, "I know, I know, of course I know. That means the Minister is now... over level 110, right?"

"It's 114. Didn't you hear me say my fourth awakening is almost here?" The thin commander said seriously, then sighed, "114, I wonder when my ship girl will be able to reach this level."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a rather disdainful voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"Haha, if your idiot shipgirl can reach 114, then my shipgirl can reach 120."

Then another commander came up and said, "120 is nothing. Have you heard of 125? That's the limit."

"You're talking nonsense. There's no 125 at all. I suggest you go back and repeat the course." The thin commander's face turned black and he cursed back without hesitation.

The man wasn't annoyed at all, he just laughed and said, "Yes, there's no 125, so your idiot ship girl can't reach 114 either."

The thin commander frowned, subconsciously feeling that this guy was talking nonsense, but he couldn't find a suitable way to refute it for a while.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something else, but he saw the faces of the people around him changed and they started to make faces.

He suddenly understood, and he didn't forget to reach out and remind Huang Chen who was standing beside him, "The Minister is coming."

I saw it a long time ago... Huang Chen thought to himself, but said nothing. He held up the small flag in his hand and continued to move forward with everyone.

The distance from the square to the pier is not far.

Soon, everyone arrived at the open space in front of the dock and began to form a formation.

The silver-haired ship girl was at the front, one hand on her hip, a satisfied smile on her face. "Very good, that's it, let's rehearse again."

As she finished her words, the sound of people flying around rang out again. Everyone held up the small flags in their hands in order, and an inexplicable ritual was performed to form a formation again.

Huang Chen mingled with the crowd and followed everyone else.

The silver-haired ship girl's smile widened as she said, "In a moment, when Rear Admiral Huang Chen comes over, everyone will start. Don't stop after the first time, and then continue the second time. Don't stop until I say stop."

As soon as these words were spoken, some unwilling complaints were heard from the crowd.

This is actually normal. We are all commanders. They came to greet you and even specially prepared a welcome ceremony. They are already giving you a lot of face.

It actually plays over and over again like background music. Don’t I have any dignity?

The thin commander beside him also grumbled in a low voice, "I want to see just how powerful that Major General Huang Chen is."

The other commanders also murmured, "Exactly. Such a grand display! Even a major general wouldn't be able to do this!"

"He's arrogant and domineering, so he's probably not a good person."

The thin commander also muttered a few words, then his eyes fell on Huang Chen again and asked, "Yeah, what do you think?"

"Ah, I..." Huang Chen pinched the flag in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I feel that this welcome ceremony is not what they really want. After all, this is the minister..."

Before he could finish his words, the thin commander's expression suddenly changed. He stepped forward and covered his mouth. The other commanders who spoke to him did the same.

Huang Chen could have hidden, but he was afraid that any movement would hurt these guys, so he did not move.

The thin commander looked around and saw that the minister didn't pay attention. He breathed a sigh of relief, loosened his hand, stared at Huang Chen and said, "How dare you say that to the minister? Are you going to die?"

"You are still talking about Huang Chen." Huang Chen was dissatisfied.

"Major General Huang Chen hasn't arrived yet," the thin commander said with a wry smile. "And who else can he be talking about? Is he as reckless as you are?"

Several commanders around showed expressions of deep agreement.

Huang Chen was speechless for a moment.

The silver-haired minister walked back and forth on the platform, looking left and right, and suddenly saw two ship girls walking up the stairs of the dock.

She frowned, but before she could say anything, Kawauchi, startled by the crowd, spoke first, "Wow, there was no one here before, and now all of a sudden there are so many of them."

"Before?" The silver-haired minister frowned, feeling something was amiss. "You are..."

Shentong smiled lightly and stepped forward to explain, "I am Shentong, and this is my sister Kawauchi. Our commander Huang Chen should be going to the front to look for..."

However, before she could finish her words, Kawauchi on the side blinked at the welcoming ceremony and asked with a smile, "Commander, why are you going there?"

As she finished her words, the eyes of everyone around her immediately focused on Huang Chen.

Everyone.

Chapter 973 Can we only say that she is more confident?

Lan Island is the rear base of the Y area front.

It is a base for storing supplies, war preparations, personnel, weapons, and providing support for front-line wars.

It also has many departments such as machinery, electronics, scientific research, transportation and medical care, and is responsible for the research, production and storage of oil, magic cubes and other materials needed for war.

Therefore, the entire Lan Island is equivalent to a ship girl branch with unique functions.

Meanwhile, in the Minister's office on the third floor of the Landao Office Building, Minister Washington, with his short silver hair, was explaining to the young commander across from his desk with a rather awkward smile, "I'm sorry, I miscalculated the time. There was a slight discrepancy between your arrival and the time you arrived."

The office is not big, and its decoration style is much more simple and elegant compared to the impetuous Secretary Washington himself.

The overall color tone is mainly blue and white, the seats are all made of thick mahogany, oil paintings and the emblem of the KanColle Headquarters are hung on the walls, the windows are bright, and the flags of the KanColle Headquarters are placed on both sides.

It looks ordinary, like a standard director's office of a Kancolle department.

The girls like New Jersey sat on the sofa on the left, either looking around the office or eating the snacks and drinks that Secretary Washington's secretary had just brought over.

Huang Chen, sitting across from the desk, shook his head slightly as he listened to Minister Washington's words. "It's okay. Actually, it was quite interesting just now."

"Quite interesting, isn't it... Ahaha, I feel the same way..." Minister Washington smiled rather awkwardly and nodded. "Well, your performance just now was quite good, quite skilled."

"Very... skilled?" Huang Chen didn't quite understand. Could this be considered a form of compliment?

He held the teacup in his hand, with only one thought in his mind: "Stop talking and let this topic go?"

However, Minister Washington didn't seem to think so. She continued to ramble on, "You only practiced a little bit with everyone back then, and yet you were able to coordinate with everyone. You're truly worthy of being a major general."

This kind of compliment is too embarrassing... Huang Chen smiled and changed the subject directly, "By the way, when does the experiment that requires my cooperation start?"

As he spoke, he looked through the window beside him in the direction of Lan Island.

On the way to the office just now, he looked around carefully and noticed that there were several unique buildings on the left side of the office building, which was northwest of Lan Island.

The first moment he saw those buildings, Huang Chen felt that they were research institutes and laboratories.

The purpose of his coming here this time was to cooperate with the experiment.

Minister Washington was stunned, and followed Huang Chen's gaze to look outside. Then he smiled and shook his head, "Ah, that is indeed the research institute on the island. However, the experiments that require your cooperation must be carried out at the front-line base."

"Front-line base?"

Huang Chen was stunned because it was not him who said this, but New Jersey who had walked up behind him without him noticing.

"When I came here before, I didn't say that I had to go to the front-line base." New Jersey stood aside with her arms folded. She was quite tall and liked to wear high heels. Just standing there like this, she was extremely oppressive.

If it were some timid ship girls, they would probably tremble at this time. Even if they were normal ship girls, they would probably feel a little scared.

However, Minister Washington didn't react at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's okay. Even if we go to the frontline base, we will protect Major General Huang Chen. I will accompany him personally this time, so there won't be any accidents."

"You? Protect honey?" New Jersey's brows suddenly raised, and Huang Chen also looked at Washington with a strange expression.

How can I put it? Can I just say that Minister Washington is quite confident?

"What? You don't believe it?" Minister Washington smiled slightly, with an extremely confident smile in his blue eyes.

"Of course I believe it, but I'm a little confused. Don't you know me?" New Jersey asked. She was really confused. After all, she had been a battleship teacher at Nanyang College for a long time. Although Washington was in area Y, there was no reason for him not to know her, right?

"Ah, yes, of course I do. You used to teach at Nanyang College, right?" Washington continued with a smile. "I once fought on the front lines of Area C. Back then, I conducted exercises with Musashi from Nanyang College. She was a very powerful shipgirl, and I was slightly better at that time."

She spoke softly, her slender fingers tapping on the desk panel. Although her words were calm, the meaning she revealed was extremely clear.

Musashi, whom I defeated before, is the director of the Battleship Department at Nanyang College, so there is no doubt that I am more powerful than you, the deputy director!

She looked at New Jersey quietly, and compared to her previous hectic movements, she seemed quite quiet.

But Huang Chen felt the undisguised confidence and pride, as well as a hint of provocation, beneath that quiet demeanor.

He pursed his lips, realizing something was not right, and quickly came to the rescue, "Let's talk about the mission first. Actually, it doesn't matter even if we go to the frontline base. It still depends on what the specific mission is."

The front line doesn't really matter.

To be honest, if the experiment was really carried out on Lan Island, Huang Chen would be a little disappointed.

He came all the way here, certainly not to a place like a branch to participate in research or be researched.

Of course, we have to go and see the real front line, the real battlefield.

Go and experience firsthand the place where the Sirens and KanColles fight.

As for the issue of security, he has great trust in New Jersey. Moreover, this operation involves not only New Jersey, but also Anchorage and Yukikaze, Kawauchi Jinto and Naka.

With this lineup, it may be unlikely to kill the Siren, but if the Siren wants to threaten Huang Chen's safety, it is actually unlikely.
