Azur Lane, I really didn’t lose my memory!

"However, if I were to say that our port area's bathhouses are not divided into male and female bathhouses, Commander... would you go?"

Lu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment.

The last time I went to the big bathhouse to claim the prize, I didn't pay attention to this problem because the entire bathing area was reserved by him.

Now think about it, the port area is full of ship girls, and the only male is the commander. In addition, the commander was not in the port area all year round, so there is really no need to distinguish between men and women in the use of some public facilities.

So...the bathhouse in our port area is actually a mixed bathing pool?

You said that since the road is long, we won’t feel tired.

However, with the little girl present, Lu Xiuyuan didn't want to expose his true nature, so he said tactfully: "This... doesn't have a good influence, right? I'm a boy..."

Not all the ship girls in the port area are your wedding ships, so it would be a bit bad to go to a public bath rashly.

Xin Tiao Qian tried her best to persuade Lu Xiuyuan, "It's okay, Commander. Our big bathhouse in the port area didn't say it was a bathhouse for girls only, right?"

"It was originally a public bath for mixed bathing for men and women, but it has always been used only by shipgirls, so everyone naturally mistook it for a women-only bath."

"So now Commander, it's completely reasonable for you to go take a bath in the bathhouse!"

Lu Xiuyuan grinned: "That makes sense, Qian-chan, what you said makes sense."

Noshiro, who was standing by, twitched her lips when she heard this. What does that make sense? Commander, you just simply want to take a bath in the women's bath, right?

"But it's reasonable, but it's not reasonable." Noshiro interrupted, "Although it was originally built as a mixed bath, since everyone later assumed that it was a female-only bath, then from a moral point of view, it is a female-only bath. What if an unmarried ship accidentally enters and sees the naked commander? That would be bad, wouldn't it?"

What Noshiro said makes sense.

Although it is stated on the surface that it is a mixed bathing pool, there have always been two sets of rules: one set is the explicit rules, and the other set is the unspoken rules agreed upon privately. Neither of these two rules can be ignored.

"That's easy." Shinjo Akane was clever, "When we go to take a bath, we'll hang a sign at the door saying that the Commander is taking a bath inside."

"When the other ship girls see this sign, if they go in, it means they accept the mixed bathing with the commander. If they don't want to bathe together, they can go to other baths."

Lu Xiuyuan clapped his hands and cheered: "This is a good method, I think it will work."

Xin Tiao Qian's method fully took everyone's feelings into consideration. Lu Xiuyuan agreed with both hands: "What do you think about taking a bath together?"

"Rafi... no comment."

Lu Xiuyuan looked at Lafite and nodded gently. The little girl probably didn't understand much about the relationship between men and women. She just thought it was an ordinary bath and naturally didn't have much objection.

"I, I have no objection either..." said little Beifa with a blushing face.

She had already helped her master take a bath once at the bathhouse last time. Although she couldn't explain why, every time she saw her master without clothes, her mind cube would pound, making her so shy that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"As for the teacher... Anchorage is willing..." Anbao is a little angel. As long as the commander is there, she can go anywhere.

Santiago wasn't a problem either, she was a silly girl, as naive as a little girl, she thought it was just a simple bath together.

Needless to say, Baltimore and Long Island are wedding ships, and although it is a bit shy to take a bath with the commander, it is not impossible.

Even Kizuna Ai, who is usually difficult to deal with, didn't say anything this time.

Well, Ai-chan still said it.

She said she was going to the bathroom next door because she couldn't let the commander, a pervert, take advantage of her.

Akane Shinjo held her forehead with her hand and looked at her roommate Kizuna Ai helplessly, feeling a bit disappointed in her.

I have created so many opportunities for you, Ai-chan, why don't you follow the right path? You have been playing steadily and avoiding the optimal solution.

"Well, if everyone is going..."

Agano appeared behind Noshiro at some point. She put her hands on Noshiro's bare shoulders, looked at Lu Xiuyuan and said, "Commander, if everyone is going, take our Noshiro with you~"

Although there was a suspicion of running away secretly, Agano was a good sister. She did not forget that her sister had not had a bite of meat yet, and spared no effort to bring her sister and the commander together.

"Sister..." Noshiro blushed and whispered, "Didn't you say that the store was short-staffed today?"

Because of the drill, Shimakaze, a staff member at the maid cafe, had been on leave for several days, so the store has been a little short-staffed when it’s busy recently.

"Don't worry about the store's affairs. Just leave them to me. Just go out and play with the commander without worrying about it." Agano said.

"But sister..."

Just as Noshiro was about to say something, Agano quietly pulled her disappointing sister to a corner and whispered, "What's wrong with you, sister? Do you still want to be with the commander? I tell you, tsundere has long since retired."

"Withdraw from the environment? What a mess..." Noshiro's face turned red.

Agano glanced at Lu Xiuyuan who was not far away, and then said, "You are silly, sister. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! If you come to this village, there will be no such store."

Noshiro: “???”

"Look, everyone in the harbor is focusing on the exercise right now. What are you waiting for if you don't take down the commander now? Waiting for the last one? Or do you plan to wait until the commander has mastered his skills before you take over?"

The old driver Agano made Noshiro's face blush with just a few words, but because the other party was her sister, Noshiro couldn't preach to her.

"Anyway, it's settled. I'll tell the commander that you need to go take a bath together, and then you should work hard to take down the commander in the evening. In a few days, we'll take advantage of the opportunity and find a chance to invite the commander to stay at our house for a night..."

Without waiting for Noshiro to express her opinion, Agano made the decision for her sister.

She knew that there were many talented people in the port area.

Glorious sisters, Yamato sisters, Kaohsiung sisters...

If we really talk about sisters, even if Jiu Niang is included, the three of them together are not enough to beat others.

You already have the disadvantage of "congenital deficiency". If you don't take the initiative, are you really going to be alone in an empty room playing with little Beans in the future?

In short, under Agano's instigation, Noshiro reluctantly joined Lu Xiuyuan's mixed bathing group.

184-Mixed Bathing

At night, the group took their spare clothes and went to the Japanese-style bathing area in the large public bath to soak in the hot springs.

Noshiro walked in front of the team with a red face, keeping a distance from the others somewhat uncomfortably.

She was holding a small basket filled with spare clothes. The things inside were thoughtfully prepared for her by her sister Agano, but Noshiro was too embarrassed to let others see them.

Well, it's not a big deal actually.

It was just a short, thin pink yukata with a cherry blossom pattern on it.

When her elder sister Agano handed the things to her, she said that the basket contained only ordinary changes of clothes. Noshiro took a look at it at that time and it was indeed just an ordinary yukata. There was nothing strange about it except that the hem was a little short and the fabric was a little thin.

But halfway through the journey, Noshiro had nothing to do, so she casually flipped through the small bamboo basket and found that there was only the yukata with the cherry blossom pattern and some toiletries in the basket.

I felt really bad at that time.

Where's my underwear?

Sister, where did you put my underwear?

After searching carefully again and again and confirming that there was no underwear, Nodai sighed, thinking that her sister was so careless that she forgot to get underwear for herself...

But now I can see the entrance to the bathhouse, and it would take time to go back and get new underwear.

Do I have to wear dirty underwear after taking a bath? Or should I not wear it...

Noshiro was in a dilemma.

She was a bit of a germaphobe, and after washing herself, she had to go back wearing dirty clothes, which made Noshiro a little unbearable.

But if I don’t wear it...it’s embarrassing.

Noshiro was caught in a dilemma.

Soon after, the group walked into the Japanese-style hot spring bath.

Everyone arrived early, and when they arrived at the hot spring bath, apart from Manju who was responsible for serving, there were no other ship girls.

Lu Xiuyuan had once had the experience of taking a hot spring bath with Tiancheng, so he had some understanding of the process. First, he had to go to the shower room to rinse, and then go to the hot spring after washing his body clean.

Lu Xiuyuan had originally thought that he could be frank with everyone and scrub each other’s backs, but unfortunately the bathhouse here was much larger than the one in Tiancheng back then, and the showers had cubicles.

The beautiful girls walked in wrapped in bath towels and walked out wrapped in bath towels. Except for their legs and shoulders, other private parts could not be seen at all, which made people feel a little regretful. They can only look forward to seeing something good when they take a hot spring bath next time.

In the locker room.

Lu Xiuyuan took out a sign from the ship's space and wrote on it in black pen "The Commander is taking a hot spring bath inside" to prevent non-marriage ships or shy ship girls from accidentally entering in without knowing it.

After doing all this, he couldn't wait to be the first to run to the hot spring.

Lu Xiuyuan knew that one could not wrap themselves in a bath towel when taking a hot spring bath. At that time, even if Lu Xiuyuan did not take the initiative to mention it, everyone would obediently take off the bath towel that covered their private parts.

So he wanted to be the first to go in and occupy the best viewing spot, and he was also looking forward to seeing which ship girls still insisted on "visiting" after seeing the words "Commander" on the signboard.

After Lu Xiuyuan went in, Kizuna Ai went to the bathhouse next door.

The members of Team Laffey entered one after another, leaving only Noshiro and Akane Shinjo in the locker room.

Noshiro had her black hair tied up in a bun and was wrapped in a pure white bath towel.

At this moment, the girl's face was flushed, and she was still hesitating whether to change the bathhouse like Kizuna Ai.

As a ship girl of the Sakura Empire, she knew the rule that you can't wear a towel when taking a hot spring bath. But when she thought about having a frank conversation with the commander later, her modesty made her a little shy.

But on the other hand, this is the commander's wedding ship, and it should be normal for couples to be open and honest with each other.

Two thoughts intertwined in Noshiro's mind. In the end, she didn't know whether it was the almost sexy yukata prepared for her by her sister Agano that gave her the courage, or whether it was the girlish heart hidden deep in Noshiro's serious appearance that was more or less looking forward to such a thing. In the end, the girl decided to go in and take a bath.

"You're lucky..."

Noshiro muttered to herself. She was about to lift the curtain at the door when she noticed that Akane Shinjo was still changing clothes behind her. She asked curiously, "Miss Shinjo...are you still not done changing your clothes?"

Because of her experience as a maid in a maid cafe, she has a strong ability to keep an eye on all directions and hear all directions.

She remembered that Akane Shinjo was the first to enter the dressing room.

After a long ideological struggle, it is really puzzling that the other party has not changed his clothes yet.

"Ah... sorry, sorry, I'm the type of person who takes a long time to change clothes." Shinjo Akane waved her hand and said.

"No, I don't mean to blame you, I just feel a little concerned about Miss Shinjo..."

"No need to be so polite, just call me Akane-chan."

"Um...Okay then, Akane...chan." The outgoing Akane Shinjo made Noshiro feel a little uncomfortable. Noshiro pointed at the curtain at the door and said, "Then, Akane-chan, I'll go in first."

"Yeah." Xin Tiao Qian nodded, her beautiful eyes narrowed like two crescent moons.

After Noshiro entered the hot spring bath, Akane Shinjo was the only one left in the locker room.

After confirming that there was no one in the locker room, the girl slowly walked to the sign written by Lu Xiuyuan and turned it upside down, then walked into the hot spring bath as if nothing had happened...

............................................

............................................

.............................................

.............................................

..............................................

The moonlight is like water, and the moonlight is scattered on the surface of the hot spring pool, reflecting the moonlight.

The surface of the hot spring was as calm as a mirror, and the steam formed a light mist under the moonlight.

Lu Xiuyuan chose a position at the edge of the hot spring pool. He immersed the entire body below his neck in the water, squinting his eyes and quietly looking at the people soaking in the hot spring.

At this moment, the girls have taken off the last layer of body cloth and are enjoying the hot spring bath with blushing faces.

Lu Xiuyuan had a good eye, and even the obstruction of water and steam could not stop him from seeing the girls' beautiful figures.

erm...

Miss Nagashima is just as I imagined, with a nice body...

Baltimore was also a bit unexpected, it turns out she is the type that shows off her physique when she takes off her clothes.

Speaking of which, when I first saw Baltimore while playing the game, I thought she had the temperament of a galgame heroine. Now that I have seen the girl's good figure in person, Lu Xiuyuan is even more convinced that his original feeling was correct.

As for Little Belfa and Rafi...

Ahem, let’s ignore this. There’s nothing good about the little girl.

But if we talk about the biggest ship girl present, it has to be Anbao...

Unexpectedly, the purest An Bao is actually the most righteous one among all the people present...

At this time, Noshiro and Akane Shinjo, who arrived late, walked into Lu Xiuyuan's sight.

Lu Xiuyuan immediately withdrew his gaze from Anchorage and turned his gaze to Noshiro who was wrapped in a bath towel.
