The Leisurely Daily Life of Warship Girls

Hu De also asked in confusion, "Why do we have to wait for people in the 2nd to 5th place?"

"Because I'm waiting for the admiral..."

Shimakaze's voice grew fainter, but it was still heard by everyone.

"Waiting for the admiral?"

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances.

Speaking of which, 2-5 doesn't seem to be hiding the appearance of a naval base, so why don't admirals like Shimakaze go back to the naval base to wait?

There must be something fishy about this. Out of concern, Han Yun and Hu De both wanted to find out what had happened and why the admiral of Shimakaze had made her wait for a whole month. In fact, "a month" was just the time Han Yun knew, and Shimakaze might have waited even longer before that.

"Shimakaze-chan, why are you ranked as Admiral in 2-5? Did something happen?"

Hu De quickly pressed for more information.

This question completely stumped Shimakaze.

Shimakaze lowered her head sadly, a tear welling up in her eye. She forced herself not to cry and sobbed, "The Admiral just went out to find food. He'll be back to see Shimakaze soon."

Shimakaze really didn't want to bring this up...

"Have you been searching for food for more than a month?"

Han Yun frowned, a bad premonition suddenly rising in his heart.

"Shimakaze-chan, tell Hood-nee in detail what happened, and Hood-nee will help you."

Hood quickly hugged Shimakaze tightly, noticing that Shimakaze's body was trembling and that he seemed somewhat mentally unstable.

It's impossible for them to have been searching for food for so long. Could it be that Shimakaze's admiral died while searching for food...?

Then Shimakaze waited anxiously for over a month between 2 and 5.

"The admiral just went to find food. He will definitely come back. Although he doesn't like Shimakaze, he said he would come back."

Shimakaze burst into tears, sobbing, "This..."

Han Yun and Hu De exchanged a glance, their expressions becoming serious.

Although Shimakaze's answer was vague, it seemed that the situation was more serious than they had imagined.

The admiral of Shimakaze disliked her and abandoned her in 2.

After -5, he threatened to go out to find food, and then he never came back.

If it's because he doesn't like Shimakaze, then is that admiral deliberately not coming back?

[PS: Please help! And I'm only now remembering to thank everyone who tipped me, but... *slaps face* So many days have passed, I've completely forgotten who tipped me! But I still sincerely want to thank everyone for their support. Without your support, I wouldn't have the motivation to keep writing. ][PS: Whew, finally a decent PS to show you.]

Chapter 31 The Lonely Island Wind

When the topic of the admiral came up, Shimakaze's emotions were clearly unstable. It's likely that Shimakaze had been thinking about the admiral not returning for a long time, but had been forcing herself not to think about the worst-case scenario.

So Shimakaze kept hoping that the admiral would return, and waited bitterly. But if Shimakaze's admiral really abandoned her on purpose, wouldn't she have to wait in 2-5 for the rest of her life and die in despair and loneliness... Shimakaze is also a pitiful ship, and Hood couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

"Shimakaze, calm down first. Why don't you tell us about your admiral situation?"

Hood hugged Shimakaze tightly, wanting to make Shimakaze feel warm.

Shimakaze hesitated for a long time in Hood's arms before finally being unable to hold back and beginning to recount her experiences...

"My admiral's name is Qi Ming. His dream is to become an Abyssal Admiral, so he doesn't really like me as the initial ship..."

Shimakaze began to recall painful memories.

In Shimakaze's subsequent narration, the group roughly learned about Shimakaze's pitiful past.

Admiral Qi Ming of Shimakaze seems to dislike destroyers, or rather, he dislikes elementary school students.

All children in the world are like that; they cry and throw tantrums over the smallest things, and sometimes we don't even understand what they're laughing at.

Kids are just so incredibly annoying.

Qi Ming likes the Deep Sea Fleet because the Deep Sea Fleet not only dresses provocatively, but also exudes a mature femininity. Most importantly, the name Deep Sea Admiral sounds very domineering, doesn't it?

So even though Shimakaze was Qi Ming's initial ship, he never really valued her. After all, his goal was to become an Admiral of the Deep Sea, and once he became an Admiral, he would have to be hostile to ship girls. In other words, he would eventually get rid of Shimakaze, so there was no need to be nice to her.

However, he couldn't conquer the deep sea by himself, so he could only rely on Shimakaze's help at the beginning.

Qi Ming sent Daofeng out to sea every day to bring back any injured deep-sea creatures he found. He planned to subdue them by healing them and brainwashing them with sweet talk.

However, it's important to know that it's very dangerous for a ship girl to approach an injured Abyssal vessel. After all, how would the Abyssal vessel know that you're coming close for no reason?

Therefore, when Abyssus, already injured, spotted a ship girl approaching, she naturally fired directly at her, which resulted in Shimakaze being injured by the enemy before she even got close to Abyssus.

Immediately afterwards, Shimakaze, returning with her injuries, was always subjected to a severe scolding from the admiral, and was rarely allowed to enter the canal.

Generally speaking, unless it is heavily damaged, even if Shimakaze is moderately damaged, she cannot enter the canal. The admiral even claimed that it was to save resources.

But Shimakaze knew that the admiral simply didn't like her...

However, no matter what, Qi Ming was the admiral of Shimakaze, the first person she saw when she opened her eyes, and Shimakaze had already treated him as family.

Besides, aside from having her bring the injured Deep Sea back and preventing him from entering the canal before the major damage, Qi Ming didn't specifically mistreat her in any other way. At most, he just gave her a little less resources at each meal...

Even so, Shimakaze always ate with a grateful expression, because without the admiral, she would never have seen this world.

So even if she's hungry and cold, as long as the admiral doesn't let her starve, she'll give him a grateful smile.

However, Qi Ming found this smile extremely repulsive.

So, elementary school students are incredibly annoying. Sometimes I just don't understand what they're laughing at. They're being abused, what are they laughing about?

The more Shimakaze greets Qi Ming with a smile, the less Qi Ming will be willing to abandon her in the future. Therefore, Qi Ming dislikes Shimakaze's smile.

Days passed, and one day Shimakaze brought back a deep-sea light cruiser. After Qi Ming finally won over the deep-sea cruiser with all sorts of sweet talk, he took Shimakaze and the deep-sea cruiser and left the current naval base together.

The reason Qi Ming took Shimakaze with him when he left was because he was worried that the deep-sea creature might resist. So, after confirming that the deep-sea creature wouldn't resist, Qi Ming abandoned Shimakaze under the pretext of going out to find resources...

This is why Shimakaze has been waiting patiently at level 2-5.

Two months passed, and today, two months later, Shimakaze appeared at the Garrison Headquarters of Hanyun.

"Two months!"

Everyone was surprised to learn that Shimakaze had spent 2-5 days alone.

You should know that no resource points were found in 2-5. How did Shimakaze manage to survive for two months?

Hude's face showed anger. Having been abandoned so often, she hated dung more than anything.

The admiral Shimakaze is even worse than a lousy admiral, making the ship girls wait in 2-5. Doesn't that guy know that a single word from the admiral can make the ship girls wait forever?

To let your initial ship endure loneliness and sorrow for the rest of your life, this kind of admiral is even more useless than a salted fish!

The thought of Shimakaze crying alone in 2-5 brought a pang of pain to everyone's hearts.

During these two months of torment, what Shimakaze endured was more than just loneliness...

"Shimakaze, your admiral may already be..."

Hood tried to persuade Shimakaze to give up waiting.

But before she could finish speaking, Shimakaze exclaimed anxiously, "No, the Admiral will definitely come back! Shimakaze is so cute, so kawaii, so adorable, the Admiral would never abandon her!"

Shimakaze's wide eyes were brimming with tears, as if reminding Hood that if she continued talking, she would burst into tears!

Hood opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything. Shimakaze was still hoping for the Admiral's return, even though she was already so badly injured.

On the other hand, Hood wondered if she could still be as foolish as Shimakaze in expecting anything from humanity.

The answer is obviously no.

"Shimakaze-chan, why don't you stay here for a while and live with Hood-nee?"

Hood has clearly taken the Shimakaze matter to heart.

However, Shimakaze firmly shook her head at her invitation: "I have to leave after I finish charging. The admiral will definitely be worried if he comes back and finds that I'm not here."

"This……"

After hearing this, everyone fell silent. Should they say that Shimakaze was too foolish, or too loyal?

While ship girls may have special feelings for the first person they see after opening their eyes, there's no need to go this far, Shimakaze-chan, please stop deceiving yourself...

Hu De quickly cast a pleading look at Han Yun, seemingly hoping that Han Yun would keep Shimakaze there.

Han Yun sighed. He didn't express his opinion, but said, "Shimakaze, before you fully charge up, go out and play with Sister Shirayuki for a while."

Han Yun gestured to Bai Xue, who then led Dao Feng out of the room.

Although Shimakaze was reluctant to leave Hood, she still chose to leave the room because she was in a bad mood.

After they left, Hu De frowned in dissatisfaction: "Admiral, you should know about Shimakaze's situation, why didn't you leave Shimakaze behind?"

Hu De didn't understand. If Han Yun really wanted a Shimakaze, why was he being cowardly now that the opportunity had come?

Han Yun glanced at Hu De and said calmly, "Shimakaze is unwilling."

Hu De was even more disappointed in Han Yun: "At a time like this, who cares whether Shimakaze is willing or not? We have to save her first, right?"

Shimakaze was clearly exhausted. In addition to physical fatigue, her young heart was also scarred. Why couldn't Hanyun understand this?

Han Yun shook his head helplessly at Hu De's anger, then looked at Hu De seriously and said, "I will definitely stay in Shimakaze, but not now. For example, if I forced you to stay on the day you arrived at the naval base, what would you do?"

"I?"

Hood was taken aback by the question.

When she arrived at the Haise Garrison, her heart was filled with negative emotions towards humanity. If Han Yun were to pressure her at this time, she might even resort to violence in a fit of anger.

The current Shimakaze is so similar to her when she first arrived at the Umiiro Naval Base that it's impossible to force Shimakaze to stay.

"So that's how it is..."

After thinking it through, Hu De calmed down.

It turned out to be like this...
