After he melted the ice under Akashi's feet, he looked at the little profiteer who was still held in the air by Kirishima and made a pitiful expression. He stretched out his hands and rubbed Akashi's chubby cheeks hard.
"I'm not going to eat you, why are you running so fast?"
"Meow... Commander, I was wrong, meow..."
Akashi had no power to resist and let him rub his face, his cat ears drooping, and he tried to apology hesitantly.
"Oh? You are wrong. What is wrong with you?"
Seeing that Mingshi took the initiative to admit his mistake, Lin Lan stopped ravaging the kitten's tender white cheeks and asked with a sneer.
"me……"
Being watched by Lin Lan, Amagi and Kirishima, Akashi was still hesitating whether to tell the commander that she had been secretly photographing him, and was thinking about whether to find another excuse to get away with it.
But Kirishima noticed that Akashi was reluctant to speak, so he suggested to Lin Lan in a joking tone:
"Well, Commander, a friendly reminder, as ninjas of the Sakura Empire, we have mastered professional interrogation techniques. Do you want me to use them on this naughty little kitty?"
"Meow! I was wrong for secretly taking photos of the Commander and using them as material for Aoba, meow!"
Before Lin Lan could even open her mouth, Mingshi shuddered all over and confessed honestly.
Hearing Akashi suddenly change his words and admit everything so readily, he couldn't help but look at Kirishima a few more times in surprise.
Wow, are the ninja's interrogation skills really that powerful that they can even scare this small-time profiteer like this?
However, after hearing Akashi explain the consequences of his crime, Kirishima said in a deep voice:
"Akashi, it's okay for you to secretly take photos of the commander. After all, everyone has this hobby to some extent."
"But you actually had the audacity to send those photos to Aoba, the most unscrupulous reporter in Minato. You must accept your punishment for this."
"Commander, I suggest that you hand her over to me so that she can experience the training life of a ninja."
Although the purple-haired black-horned ninja sister spoke in a very serious tone, she winked at Lin Lan and Tiancheng playfully while speaking.
Lin Lan suddenly realized that Kirishima was planning to scare Akashi by playing the good cop and the bad cop together.
As expected, upon hearing Kirishima's words, the little kitten's face turned pale, and it cried out in misery and fear:
"Meow
! No, I don’t want to train like you ninjas meow! Akashi will die meow!”
Then Mingshi suddenly turned his gaze to Lin Lan who was in front of her and looking at her with a smile, and begged with tears in his eyes:
"Commander, I won't dare to do it again, meow. Yes, yes, I can make up for it, meow. I'll take you to find Qingye. I have a way to persuade her to give up issuing the press release, meow!"
To be honest, Lin Lan never expected that the person who could truly control Akashi was from Akashi's hometown, the Sakura Empire.
Although he didn't know what the specific training of a ninja was like.
But looking at Akashi's completely frightened look, it was obvious that this kind of ninja training would not be easy.
Even though he knew about ninjas through anime and comics, he knew that in order to become a qualified ninja, he had to go through a series of devilish training.
Even the Six Drives' leader, Akatsuki, would admit that she still had a lot of training to do and was not a qualified ninja.
It is conceivable how difficult it is for these ninjas to practice.
But no matter what, since Mingshi was already scared and knew his mistake, he also expressed his willingness to make amends. Lin Lan also nodded with satisfaction.
After exchanging a glance with Tiancheng, he looked at the pitiful little profiteer and said with a smile:
"Since you know how to repent and reform, Kirishima, please give her a chance."
"What? I thought I'd get another ninja companion."
Kirishima's tone revealed a very reluctant emotion. After she finished speaking, she threw Akashi in her hand into Lin Lan's arms and said to Akashi:
"Akashi, congratulations on escaping this, but this is only for the commander's sake. You are not allowed to get involved with Aoba again."
At this time, the green-haired kitten snuggled in Lin Lan's arms, hugging Lin Lan tightly. After hearing Kirishima's words, she nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.
Seeing Mingshi like this, Lin Lan became more certain of his previous thoughts.
As expected, in the entire port area, Akashi’s only natural enemy is the people from the Sakura Empire.
Afterwards, Lin Lan also told Akashi and Kirishima about his arrangements after entering the Imperial Sacred Tree barrier.
Knowing that Aoba was planning to make such a big news, Kirishima also took the initiative to apply to go with Amagi to find Mikasa, and then went to Aoba's dormitory together.
Lin Lan certainly agreed to have such a reliable battleship ninja join.
But just as he put Akashi down from his arms and was about to walk back to the torii gate of the shrine to pick up the Mind Cubes that Akashi had just thrown on the ground, a cute voice came from behind him:
“Chirp, chirp!” “Chirp!”
Lin Lan turned around and saw that they were the two wild birds that were cleaning the street before.
The two barbarians had already gathered the scattered Mind Cubes on the ground for him, and walked behind him holding them in their wings.
This saved him the trouble of getting the Mind Cube himself, and since Akashi was going to look for Aoba, he simply requisitioned the two barbarians to follow him into the shrine.
So they walked to the red torii gate of the shrine together, and Amagi took Akashi and Kirishima with him, waving goodbye:
"My Lord, Tiancheng and the others will take their leave now. A shrine maiden will lead you into the sacred tree barrier in the shrine. After you have dealt with Qingye's matter, Tiancheng will wait for you at the five-story pagoda."
"No problem, I'll be back soon."
Lin Lan smiled and waved to the three Sakura Empire ship girls, indicating that he would finish replenishing the Demon King as soon as possible and head to the five-story pagoda.
Just as Mikasa said yesterday, there are still many matters in the Sakura Empire camp that need to be decided by him as the commander.
There are also things like the course schedule for teaching elemental skills and the current status of researcher Yubari's laboratory that need to be discussed by him, Mikasa, Nagato, Musashi and others.
His workload today is quite heavy.
After saying goodbye to Tiancheng and others, Lin Lan led the two barbarians holding the Mind Cube into the Torii.
Surrounded by cherry trees on both sides, they walked along the stone-paved path, listening to the birds singing in the woods on both sides, and soon arrived at the entrance of the shrine square.
However, before he reached the stone handwashing basin at the shrine gate, he could already hear the sound of a broom sweeping the empty shrine square.
Chapter 680: Universal Brixi Plus (Additional Update)
Chapter 679: Universal Brixi Plus (Additional Update)
Soon, Lin Lan saw two shrine maidens from the Sakura Empire sweeping the floor in the shrine.
Both of them were people he had met yesterday. One was the short-haired Cat Girl Yamashiro who came to visit Nagato yesterday morning and was wearing a black and red shrine maiden kimono.
The other one was a little lolita of the Akizuki level, wearing a traditional red and white off-shoulder shrine maiden costume and a red short skirt, with two big black ponytails tied with big red bows, Hakurei Reimu...
Bah, Chunyue.
When Lin Lan was still on Blue Star, he felt that the dress style of this Akizuki-level little witch was really similar to the classic character Reimu in the Touhou IP.
Perhaps it was just because he was a Donghuang person and couldn't quite distinguish the details of the Sakura Empire's shrine maiden's costume.
"Eh? Sister Yamashiro! The prince is coming!"
Chunyue, who was closest to him, was the first to notice his arrival.
As soon as the destroyer little witch saw him, a sweet smile appeared on her cute little face. She threw the broom in her hand aside and ran to him lively.
Lin Lan noticed that this shy and stuttering little witch was originally planning to jump into his arms like the other little lolis on the destroyer.
But as if out of shyness, Chunyue just looked up at him with her golden eyes, as if she was caught in a great dilemma.
In that case, Lin Lan smiled and bent down, and before the cute little witch could react, he picked up her petite and soft body in a princess hug.
“Ah! Dian Dian Dian Dian…”
It was not until she lay in his arms and saw his face up close that Chunyue's face quickly turned red because of shyness.
The little witch's voice had become extremely trembling, and Haruzuki, who was already stuttering, stuttered even more.
At this time, Shancheng put the broom aside and walked over quickly with an excited look on his face.
The cat girl with a white fox mask on her head shook her black cat tail behind her. As she walked, she said to Lin Lan with a smile:
"Your Highness, have you had breakfast? Do you need to go to the mountain city to get some divine food? Or does Your Highness want to go directly to the Imperial Palace..."
Just as the enthusiastic Shancheng was about to walk up to him, Lin Lan's eyes suddenly noticed that not far from Shancheng's feet, which were wrapped in white silk over-the-knee cloth socks, was the broom that Chunyue had just placed horizontally on the ground.
But Shancheng didn't notice all this at all. His red eyes were all focused on him, and he walked closer and closer to the broom.
"Wait a minute, Shancheng! Watch your step!"
“Wha… Uwaaaaah, Your Highness, be careful!!!”
Lin Lan quickly opened his mouth to remind the reckless cat lady, but unfortunately, he was still a step too late.
Hearing his reminder, Shancheng just lowered his head to look, but unfortunately he was tripped by the broom and lost his balance, falling headfirst towards him.
However, because he was holding Haruzuki, whose brain had temporarily short-circuited, he had no time to support Yamashiro.
So, while he was in a dilemma for a moment, he and Haruzuki in his arms were knocked down by the cat girl and fell straight back.
But even so, Lin Lan still adjusted his position as much as possible in this extremely short time, trying to make himself a human cushion to prevent Chunyue and Shancheng from falling to the ground and getting hurt.
Just as Lin Lan had closed his eyes and was ready
Just as he was about to feel pain in his back and the back of his head, he suddenly felt someone holding his falling body firmly.
He opened his eyes in confusion and found himself lying sideways in mid-air.
And Chunyue, who was in his arms, couldn't even raise her head to look at him.
The owner of the dumpling, Yamashiro, who was lying on top of Haruzuki, looked at him blankly and instinctively made a confused sound:
"Eh? Eh?"
The unfortunate and unlucky Navigation Miko didn't dare to move, for fear that when she stood up, Lin Lan and Chun Yue would lose their balance and fall to the ground again.
But the next second, two familiar voices full of vitality and joy came from behind Lin Lan, which surprised him greatly:
"Buli! Sister Brie makes a stunning appearance! Commander, don't worry and stand up. I won't let you get hurt!"
"It doesn't matter if you get hurt! Because we'll beat the commander up!"
Lin Lan turned his head in shock and found that the two chubby beasts who were holding the Mind Cube behind him had disappeared, leaving only a few Mind Cubes scattered on the ground.
Instead, standing on both sides of his body to support him were two Brie sisters with white aho-hair on their heads, wearing white dresses, and with white tail plugs!
He instantly realized what was happening.
It turned out that just now, the two barbarians that he had arranged to carry the Mind Cube had quietly evolved into general-purpose Bri.
After confirming that the two Bri sisters were holding his back steadily, Lin Lan finally felt relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although the shining appearance of these two Brie sisters was indeed sudden, it must be said that they really helped a lot at the right time.
So he said jokingly to Shancheng who was still lying on him:
"Okay, Shancheng, don't worry about me, get up soon. If you don't get up, Chunyue will probably be suffocated."
After being reminded by him, the chubby and cute short-haired cat girl Miko, who was not tall but had an impressive figure, realized that her companion was still under her.
"Ouch! S-Sorry, Haruzuki, I'll get up right away!"
Shancheng's face suddenly turned red with shame, and he hurriedly got up from Lin Lan's body, while also picking up the poor little witch from Lin Lan's hands.
After standing up, Lin Lan also thanked the two general-purpose Bree sisters.
However, in response to his thanks, the two innocent Brie sisters were very proud and said that this was what they should do.
While the two general-purpose Bri went to pick up the Mind Cube again, Lin Lan smiled and touched Shancheng's head, saying jokingly:
"My dear Shancheng, you should be more careful next time. If you had unfolded your ship suit and walked over to me and tripped over me, I would have lost my life."
The cute cat girl who was being patted on the head by him answered with a cute healing smile after hearing his words:
"Guhehe~ Don't worry, Your Highness. Shancheng usually doesn't make mistakes like this. He's just a little tired today."
"exhausted?"
Shancheng's words made Lin Lan notice that the shrine today was much more deserted than yesterday.
The number of Sakura Empire's shrine maidens is not small.
There are few, but at this time there are only two shrine maidens and ship girls, Yamashiro and Haruzuki, who appear here.
Could it be that Fuso and Shimanto haven't come out of the sacred tree barrier yet?
