Elder brother's garrison

For various reasons, even heroes have to bow to very real problems...

For example, in the midst of a raging inferno, at a critical moment when the new ship girl was suffering severe physical and mental trauma, the real superhero, Little White Knight, appeared and saved her life. After giving her the courage to be a ship girl, she stopped the other Abyssal Deans from continuing to land on the shore. After clearing away the inferno, she faced a very serious practical problem.

Logically speaking, shouldn't rescuing ship girls be something the ship girls themselves do?

But I am an admiral.

Although she is currently operating as a disguised ship girl, Shiro has no ship name, no ship girl ID, and no admiral to report to. Appearing in the sea area of ​​Chapter 6, she is a standard ship girl with no identity, no status, and no affiliation.

With so many people watching me come ashore, what if they surround me and ask me all sorts of questions, and accidentally expose my identity?

After clearing the inferno, the nameless hero, Xiaobaixia, stood on the ruins, gnawing on the Deep Sea Dean's metal, lost in thought. He felt that if things continued to develop this way, his fate would probably be quite tragic.

Driven by a strong will to survive, Xiaobai looked at the deep-sea metal in his hand and found the rookie ship girl who had fallen asleep on the sea surface after being rescued. After thinking it over, he decided to shift the blame first.

Therefore, Xiaobai planned everything that followed, taking advantage of the new ship girl's unconscious state to shift all the blame onto her, and finally, after settling everything, quickly submerged underwater before the rescue ship girls arrived.

That's how it happened after that.

When the ship girls arrived at the scene, they found only a rookie ship girl, dressed in tattered clothes but unharmed, who seemed to have just finished her Super Saiyan form and was in a weakened state. Apart from her, there were no other enemies on the sea. In addition, the rookie ship girl had a very special-effect symbol on her head and a very valuable Abyssal Dean metal in her hand. It was only natural to interpret what they saw as "a ship girl boss pretending to be weak while traveling with her companions and accidentally encountering an Abyssal attack, saving the world in a moment of crisis".

Of course, Xiaobai doesn't expect her ability to shift blame on the spot to work forever.

Perhaps after half a day, once the atmosphere and their minds have calmed down, those who took the new ship girl away might be able to listen to her words and understand that she is not a hero.

However, this is enough for a beginner.

Anyway, by then, Xiaobai had already avoided everyone's gaze and returned to her courtyard house, becoming the unarmed admiral again. Even if that new ship girl wanted to find Xiaobai afterward, she would definitely not be able to find her.

After drying herself off, Xiaobai changed into dry clothes in the ship equipment space, then secretly left the ship girl canteen and headed towards the chapter city.

The city was now quite lively.

Xiao Bai walked back along the roadside, glancing at the missed calls from the Admiral's Guild on her phone screen while secretly observing the hurried Admirals on the street.

"Have you heard? Just now at the beach..."

"I heard about it, next."

"The first level opens with over twenty Deep Sea Masters crouching in the bushes, this stupid event is ridiculous, I'm going to beat you up %￥￥..."

"Sorry, the event is mandatory, and all the governors are present this time."

"I *￥%..."

The admirals by the roadside were speaking in a way that Xiaobai couldn't understand.

Xiao Bai glanced at the missed calls on his phone screen and suddenly realized what was going on.

Oh wow.

It seems that this Deep-Sea Dean Cluster activity has already been announced?

No wonder the city has become so hot and noisy.

Unfortunately, my ship girls won't arrive until tonight. They've been traveling for several days, and they might be suffering from acclimatization issues. So I can't rush them to work tomorrow; they need to rest for a few days and won't be able to participate immediately.

With a slightly laid-back attitude, Xiao Bai had just returned to the entrance of his courtyard house when he saw Lin Qing and a weathered-looking Mu Yu rushing towards his courtyard house on the road in front of the door.

Behind Ringo and Muyu were quite a few elderly men, each with a straight back, thin and frail, with white beards.

"Ringo-neechan!" Shiro waved to Ringo from across the street.

Ringo and Mu Yu, who were leading the group, stopped. Mu Yu turned around first and waved to Xiao Bai as if she were seeing a very familiar younger sister.

"Little White Girl!!!"

With her hands folded in front of her, Ringo was a step behind Mu Yu and looked at Xiao Bai. When she saw Xiao Bai, she stretched out a small, snow-white hand and waved to Xiao Bai as a greeting.

After Ringo waved, Shiro took off running towards her, opening her arms as if to hug her.

Ringo saw through Shiro's intention. After Shiro reached out his hand and came to Ringo, Ringo did not open her arms to welcome Shiro. Instead, she quickly squatted down, stretched out her hands, and gave Shiro a high five.

"Long time no see, Ringo-neechan!" Shiro stopped in front of Ringo and smiled at her. "Are you going to be the referee for this event, Ringo-neechan?"

Ringo shook her head upon hearing this, but halfway through, she seemed to think it made sense, so she nodded again.

"Hmm... is he or she a referee?"

"One." Ringo.

"one?"

"The governor has brought a lot of people this time."

After speaking to Shiro, Ringo pointed to the elderly men behind her.

"...They are all referees."

"!"

Xiaobai was startled, then looked behind Ringo in a daze.

The governors standing behind Ringo, due to their special status, were all aware of the newbie naval commander's identity.

Before Shiro started talking to Ringo, the governors were silently observing Shiro as she spoke with Ringo.

When Xiaobai learned of their identities and was shocked by their appearance, many governors, though their expressions remained calm, secretly felt a little smug.

After all, she was still a young girl who hadn't even graduated high school; she was still just an innocent and naive girl.

Compared to those admirals outside who have never seen anything big, there's no difference between them.

The governors pondered, each looking at Xiaobai, their expressions subtly revealing a hint of shaking their heads and frowning.

"------"

Shiro stared wide-eyed at the governors behind Ringo, her gaze shifting intermittently from the governors to Ringo.

"?" Ringo tilted her head.

"That...that..."

Xiaobai thought for a moment, then leaned close to Ringo's face, lowered her voice slightly, and asked cautiously in a low voice.

Although Xiaobai lowered his voice considerably out of consideration for the pride of the old gentlemen, the governors present were all people with keen senses. When Xiaobai was secretly talking to Ringo, these shrewd people naturally pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.

"Sister Ringo...are they...are they really the governor?" Xiaobai asked softly.

"Ah."

"Ringo-neechan...you weren't scammed, were you?"

"No."

"But they're all governors, so why are they... so old?"

Xiaobai covered her mouth with both hands, looking at Lin Qing with an expression of both heartache and surprise.

The governors behind Ringo were all taken aback.

For some reason, exposed to Xiaobai's pitying gaze, the governors suddenly felt their faces flush slightly.

"..." Ringo, "I'm tired."

"Why do all the old men have so little hair?"

"They've all fallen off."

"Oh...what...what can we do...how pitiful..."

"..." Ringo.

"..." Governors.

Sometimes, insults aren't actually that hurtful.

This simple girl's compassion, for some reason, made the governors' hearts ache.

The governors instinctively tugged at their hats, turned around, and huddled together, their faces flushed.

Why are you eavesdropping for no reason?

"Ringo-neechan, will you become like this in the future?" Xiaobai asked with some worry.

“…I don’t know,” Ringo replied.

After answering the question, Xiaobai and Linqing subconsciously glanced at Muyu standing to the side.

Mu Yu stared wide-eyed at Xiao Bai and Lin Qing.

Mu Yu was Ringo's senior, having become governor a few years earlier than Ringo.

Xiao Bai had seen Mu Yu's old photos. Although Xiao Bai was reluctant to admit it, he had to say that Mu Yu, as a groomsman in Er Gou's sister's wedding photos, was quite young and handsome. In terms of looks, he certainly wouldn't have trouble finding a girlfriend.

Chatting about the current wooden metaphor...

My dark circles are getting worse every day. Although my hair hasn't started falling out, my complexion has begun to look much older.

"..." A hint of something foreseeing the future flashed across Xiaobai and Linqing's quiet eyes.

"...Wait a minute, little white sister, wait a minute, I think I need to explain..." Mu Yu suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly raised his hand to explain to little white sister.

"I...I'm sorry...I'm really sorry..." Xiaobai forced a smile, turned her head away, and dared not look directly at Mu Yu.

"Hey! Wait a minute! Don't apologize so suddenly! It hurts my feelings, little white sister!"

Mu Yu felt deeply wronged and misunderstood. She immediately started pacing around Xiao Bai and Lin Qing like a cat on a hot tin roof, constantly explaining her good looks.

She mentioned that she had been under a lot of stress these past few days, and that she actually takes good care of her liver. She then explained several times that she never loses hair, and that people from the Mu family never look old no matter how much they take care of their liver, so please don't misunderstand, and so on.

The governors looked at Mu Yu's anxious expression as he tried to explain, and then glanced at Xiao Bai, who was being protected by Lin Qing and constantly avoiding Mu Yu's gaze. Their expressions were complicated.

—This girl.

—It seems to be so simple that it is unfathomable in another sense.

Chapter 1060 Mocking is Fun for a Moment

A few minutes later, after Mu Yu explained her appearance to Xiao Bai several times, Mu Yu, who was finally at ease, slowly turned to Xiao Bai and introduced the several governors standing behind Lin Qing.

"Little White Sister, this is the Governor of the Atlantic."

"Greetings, Grand Governor."

"Little White Sister, this is the Governor-General of the Southern Indian Ocean."

"Greetings, Grand Governor."

"Little White Sister, this is the Governor-General of the Mediterranean... The one with the particularly long beard is the Governor-General of the Caribbean, and the one next to him is the Governor-General of Africa..."

Each time Mu Yu said a name, he gestured to a governor, who would then nod slightly to Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai quickly greeted the corresponding governor.

For any admiral in the world, the opportunity to meet so many governors at the same time is extremely rare.

Even in a large naval base like the Noob Naval Base, which is ranked number one in the world, the governors you usually see are only Ringo and Kiyo.

They were a group of elderly men, and it wasn't easy to meet them, so Xiaobai politely greeted them one by one.

"Alright, the governors have basically finished their introductions. As for Little White Sister... although everyone knows her, I'll just go through the motions. Little White Sister is the current admiral of the newbie naval base, and she's Lu Yun's sister. Oh, right, let me emphasize this, cough cough, during the previous Autumn Deep Sea event, Little White Sister lived up to expectations and took first place."

Having finally finished introducing all the governors, Mu Yu shook his slightly sore arms, straightened up, and introduced the governors in a more energetic tone.

The governors standing behind Ringo nodded slightly, remaining silent and saying nothing more.

Judging from their expressions, these governors seemed to have known all along that Xiaobai had won first place in the event.

The governors present were usually busy with important matters, and the quarterly deep-sea activities were too frequent for them to attend in person.

However, during the Autumn Deep Sea event, although they didn't know exactly what happened during the event, they still checked the rankings after the event ended when they learned that the newbie naval base was making a comeback.

Xiaobai's top ranking on the merit list during the Autumn Deep Sea event was not surprising to the governors who checked the list.

"During the Autumn Deep Sea event, the general enthusiasm of the admirals for participating was not high, and among the top ten naval bases, only the newbie naval base participated. It is only natural that Admiral Lu Lin won the top spot by relying on the strength of the newbie naval base."

A governor stroked his beard and muttered to himself.

"The foundation of the newbie naval base is terrifying. Even among the top ten naval bases, it stands out from the vast majority. Compared with other naval bases, it is worlds apart, as different as heaven and earth."

"Even if a new naval base doesn't employ any strategies, relying solely on the number and training level of its ship girls to fight on the front lines, the merit points it earns in a single day would probably be more than any other ordinary naval base could achieve in a month."

"The starting lines are not even in the same league."

Another admiral echoed this.

Yes, yes.
