Elder brother's garrison

"……"noob.

Finally, after Hindenburg asked thirty or forty times, Xiaobai looked at the slightly charred sea fish roasting in the campfire and nodded slightly.

"Alright. You can eat now."

"Yay!" Hindenburg, deep in the sea, fiddled with the sticks by the campfire, instinctively pulled out a steaming hot grilled fish, skewered it on a stick, and took a bite. "Mmm! Delicious!"

Hindenburg breathed out hot air, steaming fish filling her mouth as she chewed, spitting out scales and innards before swallowing the rest of the fish.

"Admiral! It's delicious!" Hindenburg grinned at Little White.

“As long as it’s delicious.”

Little White pressed his knees, watching as Deep Sea Hindenburg devoured the grilled fish in a few bites, then looked expectantly at another fish, looking up at himself pitifully.

Xiao Bai chuckled to himself.

"I don't eat this, you eat it."

"Great!"

Deep Sea Hindenburg excitedly repeated the same routine, then picked up the wooden stick and grilled fish, walked over to Little White, leaned against Little White, and started munching away.

After eating the grilled fish.

Hindenburg licked his oily fingers contentedly, leaned on Little White's arm, watched the campfire crackle and burn, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Admiral...where is your hometown?" Hindenburg asked expectantly, looking at the campfire.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

“The Admiral’s hometown is very nice,” Hindenburg said softly.

“…Yes, very good.” Xiaobai nodded, echoing Deepsea Hindenburg’s words. She took Deepsea Hindenburg’s wooden stick and poked the campfire.

Xiaobai poked a few sparks into the campfire.

Hindenburg, thinking Little White was going to put out the campfire, quickly covered Little White's stick and said, "Don't take it away! This is very warm, very good!"

"You like this?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then I won't put it out for now."

"Hehe..." Deep Sea Hindenburg happily lay down on Little White's legs, licked his shiny lips, closed his eyes, and soon fell peacefully asleep.

Xiao Bai ran her fingers through Deep Sea Hindenburg's white hair and combed it a few times.

It feels like inserting Oscar's thick cat fur.

While stroking the head of the Deep Sea Hindenburg, Xiaobai looked up at the campfire in front of him, where sparks occasionally flew out, and listened to the clattering of cards in the background, somewhat lost in thought.

The firelight was reflected in Xiaobai's pupils.

"Um……"

"It feels so peaceful..."

Life in the ruined city was surprisingly harmonious.

I wonder how Chao Da and the others are doing on the train...

-

at the same time.

a long distance away.

On the long track, a high-speed train suddenly rushes from one end to the other.

The train was packed with people in the dozen or so carriages at the front and back, but one section of the carriages at the back was completely empty.

In the empty carriage, a tall, mature woman dressed in black sat in her seat, holding two tickets in her hand. She glanced at the rapidly moving scenery outside the window from time to time, her face showing a tense expression that did not match her mature and beautiful appearance.

Click—

at this time.

The train carriage doors opened.

The woman in black's breathing quickened. She quickly moved to the inside of her seat, closed her eyes, and held up two train tickets to shield her face.

"Hello, ticket check." A polite and dignified train attendant entered the carriage and walked smilingly to the woman in black.

Seeing the woman in black looking tense and on high alert, the train attendant, relying on her superb professionalism, was stunned for a moment, but her smile did not fade in the slightest. She took the ticket from the woman in black's hand, marked it, and then handed it back to the woman in black with both hands.

"Thank you for your cooperation."

The train conductor bowed to the woman in black and left the empty carriage.

Click—Two

The train carriage doors have closed.

The woman in black was left alone in the carriage again.

The woman in black finally relaxed. She looked down at the two tickets with the added markings in her hands, let out a long sigh, then gripped the tickets tightly in both hands, tilted her head back, and stared at the ceiling with tearful eyes, as if something was watching her from behind the ceiling of the train.

"I did it... Admiral..." Chao Yamato held his train ticket, his face filled with emotion, "I successfully passed the ticket check..."

Chapter 2056 A Happy Return to Familiar Places

Because of the presence of the giant and the absence of others, and the inability to return to land at will, Xiaobai has to stay in the ruined city all day long, keeping company with the Deans of the Deep Sea.

During the time that Super Yamato was not by Xiaobai's side, the Deep Sea Deans occasionally mentioned Super Yamato's whereabouts, but fortunately Xiaobai was always able to dodge the question. The Deep Sea Deans also didn't care much about things that didn't concern them, so at least no important information was revealed.

Over the past few days, the deep-sea deans seemed to have truly turned Xiaobai's residence into a card room, arriving before dawn every day to gather people for a game of cards, creating a lively atmosphere. Xiaobai also diligently went to work these past few days, cultivating a bond with the deep-sea frigates. Xiaobai's efforts to build a relationship with them have been a great success; the deep-sea frigates, who initially bared their teeth in intimidation at the sight of Xiaobai, have now transformed into running away at the mere sight of him.

Time flies by.

Before we knew it, the agreed-upon two days and three nights with Chaoda had arrived.

That morning, Xiaobai made up an excuse, saying that he was tired and wanted to rest. He then persuaded the Deep Sea Deans who had come to his residence to leave one by one. Afterwards, he went to the teleportation point on the second floor and squatted at the entrance of the teleportation point, looking longingly at the narrow room.

at last.

Just as Xiaobai was staring eagerly at the teleportation point, a black vortex that hadn't been seen for several days finally appeared before Xiaobai's eyes.

"Admiral?" Super Yamato poked its head out from the black vortex and looked towards Shiro.

"I'm here!" Seeing Super Yamato, Shiro finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and ran over. "Super Yamato! Long time no see!"

Xiaobai and Chaoda had only been apart for two or three days, but Xiaobai felt like each day was an eternity in the ruined city. It was true that it had been a long time since they last met.

"Admiral!" Super Yamato opened his arms with relief, hugging Shiro tightly and nuzzling against him a few times. "It's finally over..."

"Chao Yamato, are you doing alright on the train? Did you encounter any trouble?"

"No, only a smiling older sister occasionally comes in to ask me what I need..." Chao Da shook his head and said to Xiao Bai with emotion, "I'm very safe... The train just arrived at its final stop."

"That's good." Xiaobai said with emotion.

"And you, Admiral?"

"I've been doing alright here...nothing's happened. No problems." Xiaobai shook her head, smiling at Chaoda, and said, "Let's go to the train station first."

Oversized and echoing.

The two of them walked into the black vortex, and with a whoosh, the black vortex disappeared without a trace.

Xiaobai and Chaoda passed through the black vortex and arrived at a small toilet.

With Shiro by her side, Chao Yahei's complexion improved significantly. She pushed open the bathroom door, pulled Shiro along, and walked out.

After leaving the restroom, Xiaobai looked around.

The surrounding environment was an empty train carriage. Outside the carriage window, it looked like a stop, with people continuously pouring out from adjacent carriages.

It seems the train had just stopped when Super Yamato couldn't wait to open the teleportation vortex to find himself.

As Xiaobai was thinking, he heard a click and the train carriage door next to him opened.

"Passenger, the train has arrived at its final stop. Please gather your luggage and prepare..." A smiling train attendant pushed open the door and called out, but before she could finish speaking, she saw Xiaobai's figure and froze, her eyes wide. "Eh... Miss, may I ask who you are...?"

“I’m a passenger too,” Xiaobai replied, taking the ticket from Chaoda. “Look.”

"Uh... but, but I've never seen you before..." The train conductor stared blankly at Xiaobai, but quickly shook her head and gave Xiaobai an apologetic smile, "Sorry... I was just being nosy."

The train attendant turned to the side and opened the carriage door.

Xiao Bai and Chao Da walked towards the door one after the other, nodding to the train attendant as they passed her.

Get off the train.

Xiao Bai and Chao Da walked out of the station along with the crowd.

"Admiral... why didn't she ask you just now?" Chao Yamato asked Xiaobai with a puzzled look as he followed her.

"Well, I guess that's what professional ethics are all about." Xiaobai waved the ticket in her hand. "We just need this."

“Oh…oh…” Chao Da nodded blankly.

"Of course, if we really want to talk about it, there are actually other reasons," Xiaobai said slowly with a hum.

"What other reasons are there?"

“I booked the carriage using my admiral status. They know who we are, so even if something strange happens, they will take care of us.”

"Huh? They know who we are?"

"I know."

"..."

"Oh, right, I told them you're a ship girl."

"Ah... it's just that," Chao Dahe suddenly realized.

Xiaobai and Chaoda left the train station, took a taxi, and sped all the way to the nearest pier.

The biggest difference in the sea area in Chapter 2057 is that Chapter 2 itself is a very large artificial island.

Xiaobai and Chaoda chartered a boat at the dock and sailed out of the dock in an orderly manner, just like when they first came here, and landed on the island where the second chapter of the sea was located.

arrive at the destination.

Stepping on the soft sand, Xiaobai and Chaodahe entered the city of the second chapter. Looking at the familiar streets and shops on both sides of the city, as well as the new admirals dressed in white admiral uniforms and accompanied by several ship girls, Xiaobai couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

"I guess I'm just revisiting this place again..." Xiaobai murmured softly as she stood at the entrance, gazing at the scene before her.

There were only two people on Xiaobai's ship, her and Chaoda, so when she appeared at the chapter entrance, she was a little eye-catching.

The new admirals who passed by Xiaobai would occasionally glance at him as he entered the city.

The rookie admirals passing by carefully examined Xiaobai's admiral uniform, and then carefully examined the super Yamato behind Xiaobai, and then they all showed some pity in their eyes.

"Sigh, I only have one ship girl by my side... I really don't know how I managed to get through the first chapter, she must have suffered a lot..."

"No, the ship girl behind her looks pretty strong."

"Even if someone is strong, can they take on an entire sea area by themselves?"

"It's difficult..."

"I guess it's the first chapter that they completed in collaboration with others..."

"Is she planning to find someone to collaborate with for the second chapter as well?"

"Sigh, the admiral still needs a lot of ship girls..."

"..."

The faint murmurs of the new admirals rang out along the roadside. Some pitied Xiaobai's ship girl lineup, while others expressed indifference to Xiaobai's awkward situation of having only one ship girl, saying that only the strong survive in the struggle for survival. Still others looked at him with disdain.

Listening to the voices around him and feeling the gazes upon him, Xiao Bai smiled wryly.

A lack of discernment is a common problem among new admirals.

Xiao Bai wasn't angry.

in contrast.

I was actually quite happy.

Since I started mingling in high-level sea areas, most of the admirals around me there were high-level admirals who had heard of the reputation of the newbie naval base. Perhaps because of my brother's past reputation, when those admirals saw me, they all looked like they had seen a ghost and wanted to hide in the ground to avoid me. Occasionally, when they made eye contact with me, eight out of ten would be so scared that their legs would tremble on the spot.

to be frank.
