Elder brother's garrison

Xiao Bai wasn't stupid, and she quickly understood that the will of the deep sea was unhappy. She understood and took back her words.

Upon hearing that Xiaobai was going to take back Xiaolan's name, cv16 nodded to Xiaobai and said, "Just call me cv16."

It seems that cv16 himself is not very satisfied with the name "Little Blue".

“cv16, this is Saratoga.” Little White pointed to Saratoga beside him and introduced her to cv16, “She is Lexington’s sister.”

cv16 looked at Saratoga.

Saratoga's shoulders twitched, and he took a step back, still shaken.

cv16 quietly looked at Saratoga without saying anything, only bowed to her, and then turned his gaze back to Little White.

"These are constellations. They're Saratoga's sister," Little White said, pointing to the constellations beside him.

cv16 looked at the constellation, the two looked at each other, and nodded.

Constellation doesn't seem to be as afraid of CV16 as Saratoga, possibly because Constellation herself has never met Lexington, or because she isn't often reprimanded by Lexington.

"Is this the commander's garrison headquarters?" cv16 looked around the courtyard and then asked Xiaobai.

"No, I'm currently in the expeditionary sea area. The naval base is quite far away," Xiaobai said to cv16.

"Is this the commander's residence?"

“No, not exactly…” Xiaobai explained to cv16.

"Ah, speaking of which, Xiaobai, where is your courtyard?" Luo Lian sensed that the topic was starting to shift in her favor, so she quickly raised her hand and smiled at Xiaobai.

"The courtyard where I live?" Xiaobai looked at Luo Lian.

"Ah."

"I didn't rent a yard."

"Not rented?" Luo Lian looked at Xiao Bai with some doubt at first, then a glint of "there's a chance" flashed in her eyes. "Are you staying at a hotel now?"

"Ah... this."

"Ahem... well, although my yard is a bit small, but..."

"No, no," Xiaobai quickly interrupted Luo Lian, smiling at her. "I live with someone else."

"Oh, I see." Luo Lian was a little disappointed. "If I'm living with someone else, then there's no way..."

As Luo Lian finished speaking, she froze. She slowly raised her head, her dark eyes staring at Xiao Bai like two bottomless black holes.

"Living with...with other people?" Luo Lian stared blankly at Xiao Bai.

living together?

Living together?

Ok? ? ?

In an instant, Luo Lian felt as if she had been struck by lightning, with thunder rumbling in her ears.

Luo Lian felt that there should be nothing wrong with her ears, so why was she hearing a sound that wasn't there?

"Ah... um." Xiaobai nodded.

"Male and female?"

"How could I be living with a boy?" Xiaobai blushed and slapped Luo Lian. "She's a girl. She's a friend I met in the first chapter, and I'm staying at her place now."

Luo Lian remained silent and lowered her head.

"Lianlian?" Xiaobai rarely saw Luo Lian like this, and couldn't help but call out in surprise.

"Ah... the first chapter, um, I just came out of the first chapter too," Luo Lian said softly.

"Uh... well, speaking of which, Lianlian, you graduated from the first chapter really fast," Xiaobai said to Luo Lian. "My friend stayed in the first chapter for a long time before coming out."

"Then it seems we should exchange experiences."

"Exchange experiences?"

Luo Lian raised her head, took Xiao Bai's hand in hers, and smiled at her, saying, "Thank you, Xiao Bai, for introducing me to such a good friend."

"Huh?" Xiaobai was taken aback at first. She was a little confused when she saw Luo Lian's smiling face, but she quickly understood. Luo Lian probably thought that she was going to introduce Nia to her.

Xiao Bai thought for a while and felt that there was no problem with this. After all, Luo Lian was very powerful, and her current strength was probably not much different from Nia's. She could definitely help Nia more than she could herself. Besides, Luo Lian had been alone all the time, and it seemed that she needed to have another friend.

Thinking about it that way, it seems pretty good.

"Okay!" So Xiaobai nodded to Luo Lian, "Then, Lianlian, would you like to come back with me to take a look later?"

"Isn't that wonderful?" Luo Lian released Xiao Bai's hand and put her hands together in a cute and obedient manner.

The next chapter will be released in an hour.

Chapter 692: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

After Xiaobai left, Nia, like a young wife waiting for her husband to return, plunged into the kitchen.

"Admiral, Admiral!" The kitchen was bustling with activity. Nia was tossing the wok when Laffey burst into the kitchen and wrapped his arms around Nia's leg.

"Raffi, this is the kitchen, it'll smell of oil, don't come in." Nia looked down at Raffi's adorable little face and couldn't help but laugh.

"Admiral, an admiral outside said that there is no deep-sea metal left at the first node today," Laffey said to Nia.

“Oh…” Nia nodded, then glanced at the large black mountain outside the door a few times, and revealed a helpless smile, “It’s inevitable…after all, he’s just a newbie.”

"Well?"

"Laffey, go outside and tell the other ship girls to take another day off today," Nia said to Laffey with a smile.

"Hmm!" Raffi let go of her hand, bounced around on the spot, and glanced at the pot in front of Nia with her big eyes.

Nia picked up a small sausage that had been cut up and stuffed it into Raffi's little mouth.

Raffi made a few happy "oohs" and then hopped out of the kitchen.

Nia shook her head, watching Raffi's lively figure, before turning her attention to the wok in front of her.

"It's nice to relax like this for a few days now and then." Nia murmured to herself as she pushed the chopped vegetables into the wok one by one. Instantly, with a sizzling sound, the aroma of oil filled the wok.

When Xiaobai isn't around, Nia rarely rests. Even if she's exhausted or feeling unwell, as long as her ship girl doesn't feel pressured, Nia will force herself to persevere for the entire day. To be honest, doing this has indeed accumulated a lot of pressure for Nia. This is a rule she set for herself so as not to waste Xiaobai's help.

I didn't expect that I'd already had two days off so soon after Xiaobai came to my side. How decadent!

Thinking of this, Nia couldn't help but give a bitter smile.

The curtain was lifted at that moment, and Bismarck walked in.

"Good morning, Bismarck," Nia greeted Bismarck.

Bismarck looked around the kitchen, then picked up a cleaver: "What do you want me to cut?"

“Oh, just chop those vegetables into small pieces, thank you for your help,” Nia said to Bismarck.

Bismarck nodded, and with a swift motion, he sliced ​​the whole vegetables into perfectly uniform pieces in a flash of white light.

"Um... when is Xiaobai coming back?" Nia asked Bismarck, blushing.

“She’ll be right back after she goes out. She’s going to the Admiral’s Guild to handle that.” Bismarck pointed the cleaver at the door at the Black Mountain and said, “Saratoga and Constellation are with her.”

“Oh…” Nia nodded, “Then I’ll be able to make it in time for breakfast?”

“Hmm,” Bismarck said.

Nia nodded, a subtle emotion stirring within her.

It's very comforting to have someone come back to eat the food you cook.

Shortly after Bismarck entered, Missouri, who had just washed her hands, also came in with a smile. With the help of the two cook ship girls, Nia quickly prepared breakfast for the naval base.

Nia had just finished cooking when a lot of Admiral Guild staff arrived at the courtyard gate. Among the staff were many ship girls, carrying a lot of loading tools.

Nia went out to greet them and learned that these were staff members arranged by Xiaobai to help transport the deep-sea metal.

The group of staff walked up to the mountain of deep-sea metal, skillfully counting the quantity while loading the deep-sea metal into the loading tool. Then, the ship girls loaded it into their ship equipment space. In less than an hour, the staff had finished loading the huge mountain.

After counting the redeemed merits, the staff handed Nia a merit card with an astronomical sum of money and then left.

Nia watched the staff leave, then returned to the kitchen and handed the merit card to Bismarck.

A large mountain peak disappeared into Nia's courtyard. Interestingly, even though the mountain peak had only been there for a morning, when it disappeared, all the ship girls present felt that the courtyard had become empty.

But it's good that it's spacious; at least it gives the ship girls room to eat breakfast.

Nia's ship girls called out Xiaobai's ship girls one by one from their rooms, and then bowls of rice porridge and stir-fried dishes were brought out and delivered to their respective ship girls' seats.

Nia didn't eat. She held a bowl of porridge in the middle of the yard, eating it slowly with chopsticks while intentionally or unintentionally glancing at the gate of the yard.

Xiaobai returned later than Nia had imagined. Most of the ship girls who ate quickly in the yard had already finished eating, but Xiaobai had not yet returned.

Nia waited and waited, and a subtle sense of urgency began to rise within her.

Speaking of which, handling such a large order at the Admiral's Guild might very well alarm Guild Master Er Gou, who is also the guild leader.

Nia knew that Guild Master Er Gou was powerless against girls with large breasts and would pounce on them, but she didn't know how he would react to a petite, cute girl like Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai opened the door early in the morning, took Saratoga and Constellation with her, called Bismarck, and went to the Admiral's Guild. Xiao Bai was very punctual; she said she'd be back, and she always would. Once she left, Nia confidently chopped vegetables and rinsed rice in the kitchen. The rice was in the pot, and she waited for Xiao Bai to return for dinner. Nia waited, but Xiao Bai never came back.

Nia's heart tightened at the thought—could Xiaobai have been sexually harassed by the president?

What should we do then?

Thinking of this, Nia quickly put down the bowl in her hand and wanted to go to the Admiral's Guild to take a look and make a call to the military police.

However, just as Nia was lost in thought, footsteps sounded at the gate of the courtyard.

The unharmed Xiaobai, Saratoga, and Constellation walked in from outside the courtyard gate and immediately spotted Nia, who was about to leave.

"Nia? Are you going out?" Xiaobai asked Nia with a smile.

"Little White? You're back!" Nia saw Little White return and immediately rushed over to hug him tightly. "I thought you weren't coming back."

"I just went to the Admiral's Guild, how could I not come back?" Xiaobai smiled as she felt Nia's embrace, and then walked into the courtyard with her.

"Breakfast is cold." Nia realized at this moment that she had probably been overthinking things. She nodded somewhat embarrassedly and let go of Xiaobai.

"Well, I ran into a friend on the way, went to her place to take a look, and then built a ship girl," Xiaobai said to Nia.

“Daily construction?” Nia asked.

“Yes.” Xiao Bai said, then turned around and called out behind her, “cv16”.

As soon as Xiaobai finished speaking, cv16 walked in from outside the courtyard.

Nia looked at CV16, her previously gentle expression immediately faltering: "Eh? Lexington?"

"Nia, do you know Lexington?"

“Uh, um.” Nia nodded.

Of course she knew Lexington; it was Lexington who told her that she and Cleveland Panties could exchange equipment.

Xiao Bai smiled and said, "This is not Lexington. She looks a lot like Lexington, but she is a different person. Her name is cv16, and I had Saratoga build her this morning."

"You made it again?" Nia looked at Little White in surprise.

"Haha..." Xiaobai scratched his head, offering no explanation.

"Little White, you're really amazing." Nia looked at CV16, lingering on her face for a while, until she realized that this ship girl did indeed look a bit younger than Lexington, before bowing to her. "My name is Nia."

cv16 returned the gesture.

"Xiaobai, wait here for a moment while I heat up your food." After bowing, Nia prepared to go into the kitchen.

"Oh, right, Nia, there's one more thing," Little White called out to Nia.

Nia stopped and turned around to look at Xiaobai with some confusion.

Xiao Bai coughed lightly, then turned to the side.

A black-haired female admiral wearing glasses walked in from outside the gate. She walked up to Xiaobai and looked at her expressionlessly.

This admiral appeared to be a year or two older than Xiaobai. She had a refined and scholarly air about her, and was quite pretty and cute. She stood next to Xiaobai, looking at her with a calm expression.

However, Nia subtly detected a hint of hostility in that calm gaze.

—Huh? Does this child even recognize himself?

Nia looked at the admiral with some confusion, wondering if she had done something wrong, when the faint hostility in the admiral's eyes suddenly disappeared.

“Her name is Luo Lian, she’s my classmate, and we’re both admirals now,” Xiao Bai said to Nia.

Luo Lian also extended her hand.
