Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

Even though the weapons are equipped with silencers, this is not a place where you can just shoot casually.

Although the basement has good sound insulation, it is a closed indoor environment and has no protection. If a bullet ricochets, it will be a big deal.

"The shooting range has already been arranged. Someone will come to take you there tomorrow. For the next week, the shooting range will be yours to use."

Lin Shuqin nodded and turned to look at Sheffield.

Compared to Sirius, who is very eye-catching in all aspects, Sheffield seems a little silent.

But her eyes made Lin Shuqin feel very familiar, and judging from her clothes, this maid seemed more suitable for their operation this time.

"Sheffield is also good with firearms and infiltration. I think you two might be able to exchange ideas."

After Yang Sikang finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Sheffield and said:

"Sheffield, Miss Lin's affairs for the next few days will be handed over to you. They are here to help me kill people, and you should know more about the relevant things."

Hearing this, Lin Shuqin looked at Yang Sikang meaningfully and said with a smile:

"Okay, it just so happens that we have some questions when we are making plans."

"Then you can talk about it later. Let's get to the point first. A week of target practice, do you need any other preparation besides that?"

"unnecessary."

Lin Shuqin answered decisively:

"We just need to familiarize ourselves with the existing equipment and start working after debugging it."

"Okay, then when can we start?"

Lin Shuqin thought for a moment and replied:

"Target practice is mainly to get familiar with firearms, so two days is enough. If you rotate to check out the location during this period, there will be enough time. Three days at most, you can start in advance."

Yang Sikang nodded, thought for a moment, then took out a piece of paper and handed it over.

"Then add a few more people."

Lin Shuqin looked at the paper speechlessly and sighed:

"Aren't you going to kill too many people?"

"A lot? I think it's okay."

Yang Sikang looked at the paper and said with a smile:

"There are only a few people. I didn't say I would kill their entire family. I just sent them to see their dear God. Isn't that very lenient?"

"But you are the only one who wants to kill everyone here."

"What you said makes sense. If there are too many people who want to kill me, will I not take revenge? Then the ones I killed in revenge would be dissatisfied. Why should the others survive?"

Yang Sikang still smiled, and said briskly as if he was discussing what to eat for dinner:

"I am very particular about fairness. If they have to die, they have to die together. How can I leave anyone behind?"

Chapter 66: Plating is an art

When Yang Sikang and others returned to their villas, both villas had been completely cleaned.

The few ship girls who stayed at home worked diligently to sort out both sides, and Belfast ordered most of the necessary items through the contact information left when she went out to purchase.

Leaving Belfast and Javelin at home to tidy up the rooms, the others followed Reputation and Counterattack to go out and buy some remaining miscellaneous items.

Yang Sikang did not go out with them, he stayed in the villa.

After the others left, Yang Sikang unpacked the box and said:

"Those people from Donghuang are ready. We will start arranging time for them at the shooting range tomorrow. Within a week, our revenge can begin."

Belfast responded with a smile without stopping his movements:

"It has been five months since you were attacked. I'm sure some of those people have forgotten about it."

"Yes, but how can I forget such a thing?"

Yang Sikang chuckled. Although he was well-known among the ship girls in the port, some things could not be done easily.

Even though Lexington and the companies forcefully purged a large number of people at the time, those who hired people behind the scenes and pushed things forward were ultimately safe and sound.

Those who died were just desperate criminals, and those who died might not even know who he was.

When it happened, the situation meant it didn't matter whether it was him or someone else who was attacked.

That's why he asked Belfast to restrain them at that time.

"How was the outing?"

Belfast heard Yang Sikang's question, calmly put down what he was holding, and then answered:

"It's all been arranged."

"That means everything is ready."

After a long sigh, Yang Sikang didn't say anything more.

The three of them spent several hours dismantling everything and installing it in its required locations. The remaining medical supplies had to wait for Janus and Jarvis to return for professional handling.

Several ship girls went out to purchase and brought back a large number of items. They were busy until dinner time before they finally finished.

Although the number of people increased, the welcoming dinner that day was still prepared by Yang Sikang himself.

Just because of the number of people, Belfast and Newcastle were there to help, while Sheffield was in charge of serving the food.

As the number of dishes increased, the huge dining table in the villa began to seem not so big.

However, compared to the issue of the dining table, the maids were extremely curious about Yang Sikang's cooking skills.

Dishes prepared by Yang Sikang were all made with the same ingredients, but the final products were often beyond their expectations.

In order to be worthy of the addition of five ship girls at one time, the dishes prepared by Yang Sikang this time are no longer limited to color, fragrance and taste, but also pay more attention to shape.

As we all know, plating is an art.

But most people's perception of plating is probably still about the so-called Michelin plating, which is small in quantity, exquisite and expensive.

However, in fact, Donghuang cuisine is the ultimate experience in plating.

Plating in Michelin and other restaurants is the final stage of the dish, a secondary process that is carried out after all cooking is completed.

But the presentation of Donghuang cuisine starts with the first step of processing the ingredients, such as - squirrel mandarin fish, Qiankun roast goose, eight-treasure gourd duck, etc.

Take the Eight Treasure Gourd Duck as an example, the whole duck is deboned without damaging the skin.

This is a skill that requires a long time of continuous polishing and tempering. Why do we need to remove the bones? Why do we need to remove the bones completely? It is to ensure that the final product has the shape of a gourd.

Presenting a duck and a bunch of ingredients in the shape of a gourd is the final presentation, but it starts with the first step of the whole dish, before cooking.

There are many dishes of this kind, while another kind, such as Qiankun Roast Goose, has a truly profound connotation beneath its plain appearance.

All in all, Yang Sikang's cooking skills completely refreshed the maids present, and then... everyone ate too much.

There was no other way. Thinking about the fact that the size and appetite of the ship girls could not be linked, Yang Sikang couldn't help but make the portion a little bit larger.

But fortunately, everyone was quite satisfied.

The room allocation has also been finalized during this process.

Javelin, Belfast, Sirius and Yang Sikang lived in the original house, while Newcastle, Sheffield, Reputation, Counterattack, Jarvis and Janus lived in the new house.

Needless to say, Sirius has extremely strong combat power despite her maid status. Even without unfolding her ship suit, just taking out the big sword is powerful enough.

As the head maid, Belfast naturally took charge of the daily service, and since Javelin was the initial ship, she naturally stayed here as well.

It was their deliberate decision to send Reputation and Counterattack to the other side, because after discussion, the other ship girls all agreed that when Reputation and Counterattack went to carry out escort commissions, they could bring Jarvis or Janus with them.

The escort commissions from this home port are usually not very long, and most of the time they are one-way.

After escorting the target to the port, the ship girls can return on their own, which is quite efficient.

But correspondingly, the reward received was far less than the previous commission in Donghuang that took several months.

In order to ensure Yang Sikang's safety, and also because the rewards they received before were so generous, in fact, no one has gone out to take on commissions from Yang Sikang for some time.

At most, when the company is too busy, it will temporarily ask Belfast to help, but only for a few hours each time.

But after Jarvis and others came, things seemed to start changing again.

At first, two ship girls in nurse uniforms appeared in the hospital.

Then, people saw several different maids appearing in various places from time to time. One of the maids not only had a proud figure, but also held a great sword that stood out from the crowd.

There were some fearless people who wanted to go up and talk to him, but before they could open their mouths, they were swept away by a sword and fell to the ground.

But after he got up, nothing happened to him. Not to mention any wounds, there wasn't even a bruise. He just felt pain all over.

However, after similar incidents happened several times, Yang Sikang decided to change Sirius' maid outfit into a more conservative one.

After all, Sirius' maid outfit is somewhat tempting.

Then maids started to appear in the office building.

On the third day after Jarvis and others appeared, an eye-catching team appeared at the port.

The Asian commander who made big news a while ago and caused panic among the people appeared at the port, and brought with him a large group of ship girls.

"Are you all ready?"

"Master, everything is ready."

Belfast answered Yang Sikang's question with a smile, and then unfolded its hull in the empty harbor.

"Okay, now that we are ready, let's go."

Lin Shuqin didn't say anything big. Three days was indeed enough time for them to prepare.

The first incident had already happened yesterday evening, but no news had leaked out until now. But it didn't matter. According to the plan, Lin Shuqin and the others would make the whole White Eagle a sensation in the next period of time.

Such a thing is naturally extremely dangerous, but if it were not the case, why would Yang Sikang go to so much trouble to find someone from Donghuang?

Lin Shuqin handed over all the plan contents to Sheffield for review, and before the action, Yang Sikang had studied Lin Shuqin and her team's plans with Belfast and Sheffield.

Of course, his research is not about how to do better.

Professionals do professional things, and he never makes a mistake on this point.

What he studied was, if something unexpected happened in the middle of the process, how to remedy the situation and... how to remove oneself from the incident cleanly.

Everyone boarded the Belfast ship. Yang Sikang stood on the bow and waved and greeted Cleveland from a distance on the port road.

As he turned around and walked towards the cabin, Yang Sikang looked at Sheffield, who was a little worried beside him, and said with a smile:

"There's nothing to worry about, we've done all the preparations we can."

PS: Actually, I wanted to write about the food part, but I was afraid it would turn into a food show.

Chapter 67: Wasted Military Base

On the sea, Belfast was moving steadily towards its destination at a speed of 20 knots.

In front of the bow, javelins and repulses were chasing and playing on the sea.

The two of them have compatible personalities, and a speed of 20 knots is not a problem for them.

From time to time, the two of them played javelin games to see who could throw farther, and then they chased schools of fish or something.

Yang Sikang stood at the bow, watching the way the ship girls played with a smile.

"Master, we are almost at our destination."

Yang Sikang turned his head and could already see the shape of an island in the distance.

"Okay, where are Sheffield and the others?"

"We've already contacted them. They'll meet up with us at the front."

The destination they were heading to was an island about 30 nautical miles from their home port, which was now on the horizon.

I heard that before the relationship between the White Eagle Navy and the White Eagle Ship Girls became strained, there was a mixed fleet of the Navy and the Ship Girls stationed on that island.

But as a series of events happened, the defenses there had already been withdrawn.
