Elder brother's garrison

"I'm fine," Nanxing shook her head.

"Then...then I'll turn the volume down a bit."

"Mm." Nanxing nodded.

Xiao Bai picked up the remote control, turned down the TV volume, and then sat down next to Nan Xing, still holding the remote control and touching the floor.

Nanxing had a faint scent of shower gel on her body. Her long hair was neatly combed and lay against her shoulders and back, exuding a light fruity fragrance.

Xiao Bai's gaze wasn't on the television, but rather fixed on Nan Xing.

Nanxing was very focused while working. Her eyes were lowered, her expression was indifferent, and the pen in her hand was like a conductor's baton, gliding lightly across the snow-white form, producing a pleasant swishing sound.

Nanxing maintained this office posture for about half an hour without pausing for a moment.

Finally, after finishing processing a document, Nanxing slightly raised her head and looked at Xiaobai.

"Is it all done?" Xiaobai asked hurriedly.

“It’s still a bit short,” Nanxing said.

"So... does Sister Nanxing want some water?"

“I’m not thirsty,” Nanxing shook her head again.

"Then, Sister Nanxing, who are you...?"

"I think I forgot to mention," Nanxing said to Xiaobai, "My home Wi-Fi password is NX0608. To connect to the internet, just connect to the one with the strongest signal."

"Ah... okay, okay," Xiaobai replied.

Nanxing then lowered his head again and focused his attention on the office documents in front of him.

brush brush...

Nanxing once again processed the naval base's office documents at lightning speed.

Although Nanxing's work efficiency was far slower than Xiaobai's, in Xiaobai's opinion, she was still much more skilled than most people Xiaobai had ever met.

No wonder he's one of the top ten admirals...

As Xiaobai thought this to himself, his gaze swept over the documents on the coffee table, and he suddenly paused.

Huh?

The files on the desktop were over a meter tall before, but after Nanxing worked quickly for more than half an hour, the height of the files has gradually been reduced by half.

Just as Xiaobai cast his gaze, the top file among the remaining documents on the desktop turned out to be a calligraphy copybook.

Aren't calligraphy copybooks supposed to be supplementary teaching materials for elementary school students to practice calligraphy?

Why would it appear in... the Admiral's work documents?

Xiao Bai curiously reached out and flipped through a few pages of the calligraphy book.

After seeing the contents of the calligraphy copybook, Xiaobai suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out... the characters in the calligraphy book are not the language that Xiaobai and the others use in their daily lives, but rather runic script.

Seemingly noticing Xiaobai's little action, Nanxing, who was working, stopped writing and turned to look at Xiaobai.

"Ah... I'm sorry, Sister Nanxing... Did I bother you?" Xiaobai quickly withdrew her hand and said apologetically.

"No." Nanxing shook her head, her gaze drifting to the calligraphy copybook. Then, seemingly understanding Xiaobai's confusion, she explained to Xiaobai, "Are you very concerned about this?"

"Well... a little."

"This is the calligraphy book that the old man who taught me runic script gave me last time."

"Ella's grandfather?"

“Yes.” Nanxing nodded. “I was learning rune script from him before. To standardize my writing style, he gave me this and told me to write a few pages every day.”

"I see." Xiaobai nodded.

Nanxing had just finished writing the document in her hand. She moved the calligraphy copybook in front of her, turned to the latest page, changed to a special pen and ink for writing rune characters, and began to write, aiming at the strokes on the copybook.

Xiaobai is always interested in things related to rune fonts.

So Xiaobai moved slightly closer to Nanxing, gently touching her thigh, and looked at the calligraphy.

On Nanxing's calligraphy practice book, even a novice could recognize all the rune characters.

Nanxing continued to trace the characters with her pen. As she focused, her mental energy unconsciously flowed into the pen tip, and soon, a faint energy fluctuation began to emanate from those plain characters.

Nanxing's skill in writing runes... at least judging from the quality of his transcription, he has reached the beginner level.

Xiao Bai's lips curled up slightly as she turned her head to look at Nan Xing, unable to suppress the silly grin on her face.

"What's wrong?" Nanxing stopped writing and looked at Xiaobai, who was smiling at him with a silly expression.

"Sister Nanxing, you're studying rune script very diligently," Xiaobai said with a smile.

"...Did you notice?" Nanxing seemed somewhat surprised.

“Yes, the written runes don’t lie.” Xiao Bai’s fingers lightly brushed over the calligraphy scroll, feeling the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from it, and he said with a smile.

"I'm still... far from good enough," Nanxing said, looking down at the calligraphy copybook.

"Does Sister Nanxing really like rune fonts?" Xiaobai asked.

"It's alright." Nanxing thought for a while, but still shook her head. "This is actually a bit difficult... I always felt very tired when I was studying it before."

"It's normal to be tired," Xiaobai nodded.

Writing effective rune characters naturally depletes mental energy, so feeling tired is perfectly normal.

“That old man often told me that your unwillingness to learn rune script is a loss to the whole world. If you are willing, you might be able to change the whole world in a short time,” Nanxing said to Xiaobai.

"I'm not that good..." Xiaobai shook his head with a smile, "Besides, I really don't have that much time to learn new knowledge right now. Rune knowledge is too complicated, and I'm not good at it."

Xiao Bai is quite aware of his own skill level.

Although she can use her powerful spiritual energy to make the runes exert effects a thousand times, or even ten thousand times, more, the extent of her abilities is limited.

Thinking about advanced rune paths, rune codes, rune binary code, and so on—that kind of science is too hardcore. Xiaobai is a natural humanities student; she's really not good at science. So these are things she can't learn in a day or two.

If you can't learn it, give up!

This is Xiaobai's motto for living a happy life to this day.

"Sister Nanxing, do you want to continue learning?" Xiaobai asked.

"Probably," Nanxing said softly as she calmly copied down the rune characters.

"Why did Sister Nanxing learn rune script?" Xiaobai asked again.

“…” Nanxing paused for a moment, thought for a while, looked up at the clock in the living room, and secretly glanced at Xiaobai, “Probably because…it might be helpful.”

“Oh…indeed, runic fonts are very useful.” Little White thought of the past and nodded in empathy.

Nanxing continued copying the calligraphy. After copying several pages, she closed the calligraphy book and continued working according to the order of the documents.

Nanxing worked for several hours straight, until the sky outside gradually darkened from bright to gloomy, before she closed the last page of her document and put it aside.

At this point, the work on the coffee table is completely finished.

"Is it over?" Xiaobai asked cautiously from the side.

"Mm." Nanxing nodded.

"Yay!" Little White clapped lightly and smiled.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Nanxing gave Xiaobai an apologetic look.

"It's okay, I've had a pretty comfortable time." Xiaobai shook her head.

Xiaobai accompanied Nanxing for a few hours while she worked. Although there wasn't much to do, Nanxing's house had Wi-Fi and a TV. When Xiaobai got tired of playing on her phone and watching shows, she could admire Nanxing's pretty face (while working). If all else failed, she could sneak over to the sofa and poke the sleeping face of Chaodahe. She was actually quite satisfied.

Being in a room with two beautiful older women, especially, makes time seem to flow by without being boring.

"Should we move these working documents to the Admiral's office?" Xiaobai asked.

"A ship girl will come to pick it up." Nanxing poured herself a glass of water, took a few sips, and said to Xiaobai, "We can go out now."

"Okay, I'll go wake up Super Yamato." Shiro nodded with a smile. She got up, went to the sofa, and gently nudged the sleeping Super Yamato. "Super Yamato, are you sleeping well? We're going out now... Super Yamato..."

Super-large and Xiaobai gently pushed and shoved, their full bodies swaying slowly on the sofa, making strangely alluring friction sounds.

But Chaoda was still sleeping soundly. When Xiaobai touched her hand, she even subconsciously opened her mouth, put Xiaobai's finger in her mouth, and gently sucked on it.

"Admiral... ooh... Admiral's... um..."

The giant dog was mumbling and sucking on the little white dog's finger without even opening its eyes.

Xiao Bai squatted helplessly by the sofa, watching Chao Da sucking on his fingers, showing no signs of waking up.

"Looks like he's still asleep." Xiaobai turned around and said to Nanxing, "And Chao Yamato is still very sleepy, looks like he can sleep for a long time."

"Is she usually very tired?" Nanxing asked.

"This... is my fault." Shiro pulled her finger out of the mouth of the super-sized Yamato.

The giant, large mouth opened for a moment, then slowly closed after it could no longer detect Shiro's fingers.

A disappointed sound came from Chao Yamato's nasal cavity, then fell silent, and Chao Yamato continued to sleep soundly.

"Then let her rest more," Nanxing said.

“Hmm… that’s fine…” Xiaobai nodded and slowly stood up. “Although it’s a bit of a pity that the three of us can’t go together… then Nanxing and I will go out by ourselves.”

Chapter 3357 Home Visit

To avoid Super Yamato waking up to a cold, empty room, Shiro and Nansei called over a few white-clad ship girls from the naval base to act as Super Yamato's sleep caregivers before leaving, and also left a note for Super Yamato.

In this way, once Chaoda and Shuiwo wake up, they should be able to go out and find him immediately.

After completing the preparations, Xiaobai and Nanxing tidied up the office documents on the coffee table before leaving the room.

It's getting dark now, so it's not the best time to go out and have fun.

But for Xiaobai, as long as she goes out with her good friends, she doesn't really care about the time.

"Huh? Admiral, are you and Admiral Lu Lin going out?"

"Wow!"

"Admiral, have a safe journey!"

"Admiral Lu Lin, I hope you have a great time!"

On their way out of Nanxing Naval Base, the white-clad ship girls rushed over enthusiastically as soon as they saw Xiaobai and her companion leaving home together, offering their congratulations and cheers.

A large group of ship girls escorted Xiaobai and her companion to the gate of the naval base.

The ship girls looked at Xiaobai and Nanxing's close bodies with their eyes wide with joy, their eyes narrowed like crescent moons.

Leaving the naval base, I walked along a quiet road.

Without the ship girls surrounding him, Xiaobai suddenly felt a quietness all around him, even a slight buzzing sensation.

"Sister Nanxing, your ship girls are so enthusiastic!" Xiaobai turned to Nanxing beside her and said with admiration.

"Hmm..." Nanxing nodded slightly from the side, "They are very enthusiastic."

"They all seemed really happy when they heard we were going out to play," Xiaobai said.

"Hmm..." Nanxing nodded slightly, but after a few seconds, she stopped and looked at Xiaobai with a puzzled expression. "...What?"

"What? What?" Xiaobai looked at Nanxing curiously.

"We're going...out to play?" Nanxing asked, somewhat bewildered. "When did this happen?"

"Huh? Didn't you say so?" Xiaobai was a little confused when Nanxing asked this question. "Aren't we going to the city to play now?"

"I...I don't think I said that." Nanxing raised her hand, pressed it to her lips, thought for a moment, and then said to Xiaobai.

"So why do we go out and do what?"

"Let's eat," Nanxing said, then added, "Let's eat at my house."

"Isn't Sister Nanxing's house over there?" Xiaobai pointed to the Nanxing Garrison Headquarters not far behind her.

“That’s home too.” Nanxing said, looking at Nanxing Naval Base, then turned to Xiaobai and said, “But we’re not going there. We’re going to another home, the home where my mom and dad are.”

"...Mom and Dad?"

“Yes, my mom and dad also live in this city.” Seeing Xiaobai staring at him, Nanxing quietly explained, “Today is the first time I’ve come back in a long time, so I’m going home to visit.”
