My mobile game wife came knocking.

"Sister Keqing."

The familiar voice that suddenly came to mind startled Ke Qing from her reverie.

Keqing stopped the car and looked over. By the roadside were little Laffey and the two cherry-haired girls she had just been thinking about, Yae Sakura and Okita Souji.

What are you doing here?

Ke Qing was surprised.

"Laffey went to Okita-neechan's dojo today and is on her way home."

As she said this, Raffi looked at Keqing curiously: "Sister Keqing, didn't you go abroad? Why..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly froze.

She opened her eyes wide in disbelief, suddenly looked up, and gazed at the sky above.

Above, the sky was clear and empty.

Raffi looked up for a long time, but did not see what he expected.

His excited expression gradually faded, and Raffi lowered his head in disappointment.

"Lafite, what's wrong?"

Beside her, Yae Sakura looked at Laffey with concern.

Raffi shook his head.

"Just now, I think I sensed Enterprise's presence."

Chapter Seventy-Four: The Gun That Pierces Through Death

The Death Squadron, transformed into eagles, soared through the sky, their sharp eagle eyes reflecting the scene of Ke Qing driving on the ground.

Enterprise stood by the window, using the Death Squadron's perspective to watch Keqing and Kurumi's every move.

Then, she saw that familiar little figure by the roadside.

She had beautiful, wine-red eyes, and her small face looked sleepy and listless. Her long white hair was tied into a cute ponytail with adorable bunny ear hair clips. She wore a loose-fitting little skirt, white knee-high socks, and black round-toed leather shoes.

The company was stunned the moment they saw the figure clearly.

This person was none other than Lafite, who had mysteriously disappeared not long ago!

Did Lafite really come into this world too?

Keqing carries the Commander's scent, and Laffey seems to know her. Could this mean...?

Has Laffey already found the commander?

The commander is here too!!!

The moment he realized this, the White Eagle War God, who had once been a decorated warrior, was filled with joy.

The intense joy gave rise to an even stronger impulse. Enterprise, who couldn't wait to see Laffey, to see the Commander, and to return to the Commander's side, disregarded everything else and immediately steered the Death Squadron to dive down, wanting to see Laffey.

Then, just as the Death Squadron swooped down, a beam of crimson light shot out from the distant horizon at an astonishing speed, arriving in an instant and piercing through the Death Squadron. Moments later, the light dissipated, and the crimson beam gradually disappeared into the air.

Faced with this unexpected turn of events, the company, which had been somewhat overconfident, quickly calmed down and frowned slightly.

Just now, in the instant the Death Squadron was pierced, through the Death Squadron's eyes, Enterprise vaguely saw something enveloped in crimson light—a long spear with a dark red body.

What is that thing? And who is manipulating it?

Why target the Death Squadron?

Countless thoughts flashed through the company's mind in an instant, but due to limited information, no matter how hard they thought about it, they were still clueless.

A strong sense of crisis has arisen among businesses.

More than the true identity of the mysterious person manipulating the crimson spear behind the scenes, she was worried about whether the mysterious person harbored hostility towards Raffi and the Commander, and whether the Commander's safety would be threatened.

This kind of long-range attack beyond visual range is truly terrifying.

After careful consideration, the company realized that it could not ignore such a huge risk and had to take action.

The company opened the half-open window completely, pondered for a moment, stretched out its left hand, and whispered, "Company, start!"

A burst of azure light flashed, and countless azure cubes appeared out of thin air, forming a torrent of azure light that surged and circled around the Enterprise, converging on its outstretched left hand. There, they arranged and merged, and almost in the blink of an eye, the azure light dissipated. In the Enterprise's left hand, there was a mechanical-looking longbow. At the center of the bow was a model of a ship, modeled after the famous York-class aircraft carrier, the USS Enterprise.

The company held a bow in its left hand and slowly pulled the bowstring with its right. In the center of the bow, on the deck of the ship model, twinkling lights appeared.

The company took a deep breath, and suddenly released the bowstring!

On the deck, the scattered lights converged into a beam of light, shot out, and instantly soared into the sky, pierced through the clouds, and exploded with a bang!

VF-17 Corsair Squadron, Sea Hornet, Rainbow Dragon, Experimental XSB3C-1, Meteor, SB2C Hell Diver...

Under the cover of the clouds, countless golden and colorful carrier-based aircraft, enhanced to level 10 or even 13, emerged from the light, forming a massive carrier-based aircraft fleet. Some of them transformed into birds, while others transformed into palm-sized airplane models. Under the company's orders, they scattered in all directions, searching for any suspicious individuals.

In the bedroom, the company released its left hand, and the mechanical longbow fell down, gradually becoming ethereal and disappearing into the air before it even hit the ground.

The company closed the window and let out a soft breath.

This world is different from the Azure world where the company is located. Here, there seem to be no Wisdom Cubes, no supplies needed by ship girls, and no equipment for ship girls.

However, businesses do not see such changes as a bad thing.

Because, as the environment changes, even ship girls like her change.

No longer needing to consume oil and resources, damaged carrier-based aircraft can be restored after a short rest. Even the enhancement of carrier-based aircraft does not require consuming any resources. Just by frequently launching them, one can feel the growth of the carrier-based aircraft. This is true even for carrier-based aircraft that have been enhanced to the limit at level 13+. Enterprises can also feel their growth, although it is slow, it is real.

Even the number of carrier-based aircraft launched is no longer subject to the previous restrictions.

"If my sister from Yorktown, Essex, and Saratoga were here too."

The company sighed. If the port's aircraft carrier—no, even just the White Eagle's carrier—were present, the combined number of carrier-based aircraft launched would be enough to achieve absolute control over the city's airspace.

Hopefully, I'll gain something from this.

Thinking this, the company changed out of its slippers, put its shoes back on, pushed open the door, and left the bedroom.

After the unexpected events, it was already evening, and the sky was getting dark.

As the company exited the bedroom, it bumped into Gan Yu, who was returning from the kitchen with food, wearing pajamas and slippers.

"Hmm? Enterprise, are you dressed like that, going out?"

Gan Yu looked at the company's attire and asked in surprise.

"Yes, I want to go out for a walk."

The company nodded.

Gan Yu paused for a moment, then asked, "Is the company worried about finding your relatives? Don't worry, I've already spoken to Ke Qing. If you're in a hurry, you can tell me the specific information about your relatives now, and we'll help you find them together first thing tomorrow morning."

The man shook his head: "No need, I've already found out about him, and I think I'll be able to get back to him soon."

As he said this, the company smiled slightly at Gan Yu: "Gan Yu, thank you, thank you for your continued care."

After saying that, he stepped downstairs.

Gan Yu stood there, staring blankly at the company's retreating figure.

She had seen Enterprise smile many times before. Enterprise's smile was beautiful, but it wasn't necessarily able to outshine the girls of Liyue. But she wondered if it was just her imagination, but Gan Yu felt that just now, Enterprise's smile seemed to have something extra that made it particularly charming.

Just like...

Like a lost ship finding a lighthouse, like a delicate doll being infused with a soul.

After thinking for a long time, Gan Yu finally came up with two rather inappropriate metaphors.

Are companies looking for romantic partners?

What kind of person could win the heart of such an outstanding woman in a company?

Gan Yu was curious.

but……

You must be happy, business.

Gan Yu silently offered her heartfelt blessings to the company. But along with the blessings, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Where is her lover now?

"Compared to the company, Keqing, Kurumi, Ningguang, and I are the truly pitiful people who can't get what we want."

Gan Yu sighed, looking dejected.

Chapter Seventy-Five: A Strange Smell

Ship girls are spirits that are awakened and given life by the commander using the Mind Cube.

Therefore, ship girls are inherently connected with their commanders.

While on the other side of the ocean, the company had a vague sense of the commander's presence. After getting off the plane and setting foot on Chinese soil, that strange feeling became even stronger.

Enterprise knew that her commander was on this continent.

Previously, although the carrier-based aircraft sent out to track Keqing was destroyed by long guns from the end of the sky, Enterprise had already seen Laffey and the direction Laffey left in before losing her sight.

This is why companies go out.

She knew that as long as she followed the direction Laffey had left in and searched patiently, once she got close enough to the commander, she could naturally pinpoint his exact location by relying on the bond between the ship girl and the commander, and then go to him to reunite with him.

Our reunion after separation will take place tonight!

"Lafite, I think I can sense the presence of the Enterprise Sister."

As he said this, Raffi wasn't sure whether the fleeting feeling he had just experienced was from sensing his companion's presence or simply a hallucination.

However, regardless of the circumstances, Laffey felt that he should tell the commander about this as soon as possible.

Therefore, when faced with questions from Yae Sakura and Okita Souji, Laffey didn't explain, but simply shook her head and looked at Keqing: "Laffey, it's time to go home. Keqing-neechan, do you want to come back with us?"

"it is good--"

Upon hearing Raffi's words, Keqing, who thought she had already fooled Gan Yu and Hu Tao, instinctively wanted to agree. However, halfway through saying "okay," Keqing suddenly realized a serious problem.

If she goes back today, she'll definitely sleep with Ye Ming tonight.
