Today's tutelary fort remains peaceful.

Today's garrison remains peaceful. Author: Xue Cheng is not Xie Cheng.

Summary:

Transmigrating to the world of KanColle, Xue Cheng looked at the exploded resources and the flocks of wedding ships, feeling like he had arrived in heaven. However… "Little Changchun! Didn't I say you're not allowed to play with missiles near the office?!" "William! Stop it! Those aren't fireworks!" "Quincy, you can't eat these." "Dear Veneto, I swear I've never tarnished your reputation in any way." "Um, Lexington, I can explain what happened with the dock..."

1. Game server closure

20:11 am on X/X/30xx.

Xue Cheng opened the game, logged into his account, attacked, replenished supplies, conducted exercises, and fought battles. He was doing his daily activities as usual. He had been playing this ship girl game called Warship Girls R for several years, and was already familiar with every step. However, this time when he collected the expedition, he did not send the expedition team out again, but disbanded the formation.

After the release was completed, Xue Cheng opened the equipment interface again. He had been playing for so long and had accumulated a lot of equipment in the warehouse. Although the equipment with excellent attributes had been equipped to the main ship girls, there were still a lot of ordinary equipment left in the warehouse. He had hamster disease and did not disassemble the extra equipment, but saved it.

Now, Xue Cheng was somewhat glad that he had kept these equipment. He opened the dock, checked his ship girls one by one, and equipped the equipment to those ship girls with empty spaces.

After doing all this, Xue Cheng sighed, set the aircraft carrier Lexington as a secretary ship, and then stared at the screen in silence.

Three minutes later, the game displayed a network connection failure and automatically returned to the login screen. Xue Cheng clicked the button to enter the game with some reluctance, but a sign indicating that the game could not connect to the server popped up on the screen.

"It's finally over..." Xue Cheng felt lost. This game was known as the king of survival in the industry. It had been operating for many years despite low game revenue. Many times even the players were worried whether their income could afford the operation of the game. However, it miraculously did not shut down, but continued to release new ship girls, new activities, and new costumes. Over time, it earned the title of the king of survival.

Even the players subconsciously feel that the game will continue like this.

However, all good things must come to an end. With the continuous loss of players and the long-term deficit of game revenue, the official finally issued a service suspension announcement a month ago.

"We agreed to be the industry's king of survival. See you in the next century?" Xue Cheng felt a little lost. He closed the game, opened the phone album and looked through the pictures inside. Those were screenshots of his game.

Xue Cheng is an extremely nostalgic person. This game has been with him for many years and has long become a part of his life. However, this time he knew that it would be impossible for him to see his own ship girls in the game in the future, so he took screenshots of the ship girls in the dock and saved them in advance.

It was already very late. Xue Cheng ordered some food and beer using a food delivery app. While eating and drinking, he looked through the screenshots on his phone one by one. Gradually, as the alcohol took over, Xue Cheng's eyelids became heavy. He staggered to the bed, fell headfirst onto it, and then he knew nothing.

Xue Cheng had a very uncomfortable sleep, probably because he was hit hard by the game server shutdown, and also because of the hangover, Xue Cheng had many strange dreams. These bizarre dreams that made no sense at all made him extremely tired, so much so that the sun outside the window had risen high, but he still showed no signs of waking up.

In his hazy state, Xue Cheng seemed to feel someone nudging his shoulder. He reached out his hand from under the covers, scratched his cheek impatiently, and turned over, ready to continue sleeping. However, at this moment, a soft female voice rang out from his ear: "Admiral, do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"..." Xue Cheng did not answer. His mind was still not clear at this moment, and he subconsciously thought that he was still dreaming. After all, he had been single since birth and rented a house alone after going to work. How could there be another person in the house?

After waiting for a while, seeing that Xue Cheng did not answer, his shoulder was pushed gently again, and a cautious voice sounded again: "Admiral?"

Admiral, admiral, what admiral? Xue Cheng was a little annoyed by the interruption of his sleep. He impatiently reached out and pushed away the palm on his shoulder. He closed his eyes and muttered unhappily: "What? It's a rare day off today. Why are you getting up so early?"

"You sound like you usually..." The person seemed to mutter something vaguely, but Xue Cheng didn't hear it clearly. After a moment, the female voice asked softly, "Then... I'll help you take the food to your room."

"It's up to you." Xue Cheng still closed his eyes. He turned over, turned his back to the man, pulled the quilt up to cover his head, and seemed to fall asleep again.

Seeing this, the person standing beside the bed was helpless. Then footsteps were heard and slowly moved away.

Under the quilt, Xue Cheng's originally sleepy eyes were now wide open, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

At the beginning, the dazed Xue Cheng really thought he was dreaming. After all, sleepiness and alcohol eroded his nerves, causing his reaction to be many times slower than usual. However, when he pushed away the other person's palm, the warm touch from his fingertips made him clearly realize that he was not dreaming at this moment.

Could I be seeing a ghost? Xue Cheng remembered a joke from the Internet. On a rainy night with thunder and lightning, the protagonist was hugged and the other person acted coquettishly and said he was scared, but the protagonist was obviously the only one at home.

Xue Cheng quietly opened the quilt a little, and a ray of warm sunlight came in from the gap along with a breeze mixed with the fragrance of flowers. This made him think: According to common sense, even if ghosts really exist in the world, they probably won't appear in the daytime, right?

Thinking of this, Xue Cheng became a little bolder. He tentatively pulled the quilt off his head, but the scene that came into his eyes made him stunned: "What is going on?!"

This is definitely not my home! Xue Cheng looked around blankly.

Big, this was the only adjective Xue Cheng could think of, because not only was the room very big, but even the bed he was sleeping on, the wardrobe in the corner, the computer and the table and chairs next to it all looked exceptionally large, and you could tell at a glance that they were not cheap items. Although he didn't know the specific prices of these things, it was obvious that the things in this room were of great value.

'Am I being pranked?' Xue Cheng wondered, somewhat puzzled. He had seen some prank shows before and knew of similar tactics: taking advantage of a guest's sleep to move them to an unfamiliar location, then secretly placing a camera to film their bewildered expression upon waking for entertainment. However, Xue Cheng felt that a lowly employee at the bottom of society like him wasn't worth the effort a prank show would put into making fun of him.

"Could this be kidnapping and extortion?" Xue Cheng couldn't help but smile after just a moment's thought. The cost of decorating and furnishing this room alone was beyond Xue Cheng's means. As for his parents...if his family had money, why would Xue Cheng take a job as a clerk? He wasn't one of those rich second-generations in TV dramas who hated money.

Or was it sleepwalking? Xue Cheng thought of a news story he had read online before, about someone who sleepwalked hundreds of miles overnight.

"Tsk, how is it possible..." This thought was denied by Xue Cheng as soon as it emerged. Regardless of whether the news was true or not, he felt that even if he could really sleepwalk, it would be unlikely for him to sleepwalk into someone else's room to sleep.

Since he couldn't figure it out, Xue Cheng was too lazy to think about it anymore. Anyway, he had no money and no life... He had never made enemies with anyone, so he didn't have to worry at all. Therefore, he behaved quite calmly. Instead of worrying about this, it was more important to figure out his own situation first.

Thinking of this, Xue Cheng began to search the room, hoping to find some useful information.

2. Travel through time and become an admiral

After searching for a while, Xue Cheng found nothing and did not get any useful information.

In the wardrobe, apart from a few white military uniforms that were probably used for COS, there were some ordinary men's and women's clothes. In the drawer, there were only some sundries and a simulated model pistol. The pistol was heavy and finely crafted, so Xue Cheng couldn't help but hold it in his hand and play with it for a while.

He did turn on the computer and didn't set a password, but there were only some commonly used software and games on the desktop. Only a few hidden love-raising games and unfinished painting drafts were found on the local disk. Apart from that, there was no information about the owner of the room.

The only thing we know now is that the owners of the room seem to be a couple who play COS and love-raising games, and can also draw, so they should be considered tech geeks.

There was absolutely no useful information. Xue Cheng sighed and picked up the cell phone next to the pillow. It was the only thing that belonged to him besides the clothes on his body.

Just as Xue Cheng was hesitating whether to call the police, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a girl with silver hair and orange pupils walked in carrying a restrained dinner plate.

Xue Cheng stared at her blankly, unsure how to react. She was a very lovely girl, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with distinctly foreign features. She was wearing a beautiful light green cheongsam, and her silver-white hair was tied up in a Chinese-style hairstyle.

Xue Cheng was at a loss, but the other party didn't look strange. The girl put the plate aside, glanced at the messy bed, then looked at Xue Cheng, and couldn't help sighing, "Are you awake?"

"...I think so." Xue Cheng hesitated for a moment and replied. He was not trying to fool the other party, but he really didn't know whether he was dreaming or not. After all, the girl's casual attitude really made him a little confused. Judging from her behavior, she seemed to be very familiar with him, but Xue Cheng was very sure that this was the first time he met this girl, which made Xue Cheng feel extremely confused.

After thinking it over, Xue Cheng decided to continue with what the girl said. At the same time, he could also try to get some words from her to judge his own situation.

"Probably..." The girl raised her eyebrows, looking like she wanted to complain, but she finally held back the words. The man in front of her was as heartless as ever, completely devoid of the desperate look he had last night. It seemed her worries were unnecessary.

There was no dining table in the room, but the computer desk was very spacious and could be used as a temporary dining table. The girl placed the plates on it, put the food in them in order, and then called Xue Cheng to come over for dinner.

Xue Cheng walked closer and took a look. The plate was filled with bacon, bread, fried eggs, vegetable salad and other foods. They were all ordinary ingredients, and the food had obviously been prepared for some time. The crispy crust on the edge of the fried egg had begun to soften, and it did not look very good.

Seeing Xue Cheng staring blankly at the food on the table, the girl seemed to have misunderstood something and explained, "It's not that I intentionally didn't give you something good. This nutritious breakfast was specifically instructed by Helena to give you. You know, that girl's equipment is much better than mine. If I don't do as she says... I won't be able to beat her."

"Helena?" Xue Cheng slowly turned his head and looked at the girl. His dull face and empty eyes were lifeless, as if he had suffered a huge blow.

Seeing Xue Cheng like this, the girl was startled. She quickly walked up to Xue Cheng, stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him, then asked cautiously, "Admiral? Are you...are you okay? Did I say something wrong?"

Xue Cheng slowly shook his head, trembling as he held onto the armrest of the computer chair and slowly sat down. He stared blankly at the food in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

The girl moved a chair and sat next to Xue Cheng. She carefully observed Xue Cheng's expression, trying to detect something from his changes in expression, but she found nothing. In desperation, the girl had to ask, "Admiral, what happened to you yesterday?"

Xue Cheng still acted stupid: "Yesterday?"

Seeing that Xue Cheng didn't look like he was playing dumb, the girl thought he had lost his memory due to drinking too much, so she patiently explained, "Since yesterday morning, there's been something wrong with you."

"You used to come to the office every day to check the expedition records, then disappear without a trace. But you haven't left since yesterday afternoon. You usually don't even glance at the missions assigned by the Governor's Office, but you completed all the expeditions, battles, expeditions, and exercises yesterday without any problems. I heard that when Ella received Lexington's report last night, she was so scared that she almost ran over to see if something happened to you..."

"Uh, am I usually so lazy?" Hearing the girl's words, Xue Cheng seemed to have thought of something, and a trace of spirit finally returned to his eyes.

"What do you think?" The girl didn't say much. She looked at Xue Cheng deeply. The contempt in her eyes made Xue Cheng so embarrassed that he almost dug a hole in the ground and crawled into it.

To be fair, Xue Cheng was not a diligent person and would usually put things off as much as possible. As for what the girl said, it was true, but he had never thought that those things that seemed very ordinary to him would one day be used as a lecture.

Xue Cheng couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. No matter how stupid he was at this moment, he guessed his situation from the words of the girl in front of him. In order to confirm his guess, he stood up, walked to the window, pulled open the curtain that had been lifted up at a corner, and looked out the window.

Outside the large floor-to-ceiling windows is a gorgeous garden. It is midsummer now, and the flowers planted in the garden are in full bloom. The colorful flowers are vying to bloom, attracting countless butterflies and bees.

The intoxicating fragrance of flowers was mixed with a hint of the salty smell of the sea breeze. Xue Cheng looked into the distance and vaguely saw a dam. Further away was the sparkling sea. Several ships were sailing on the sea, and seagulls were flying in the sky. A small black shadow was rushing left and right among the seagulls. The seagulls avoided it wherever it passed, for fear of being hit by it. However, the black shadow did not feel disliked at all, but chased the seagulls even harder.

"It seems like I have traveled through time..." Xue Cheng sighed in his heart. After eliminating all impossible factors, the remaining result, no matter how unbelievable it was, was the truth of the matter. Looking at the scenery in front of him, Xue Cheng thought that neither his identity nor his social influence was enough for people to play such a prank on him. So the only thing left was the conclusion that he had traveled through time.

When Xue Cheng was addicted to online novels, he did fantasize about abandoning his ordinary life and experiencing the same magnificent experience as the protagonist of the novel. But fantasy is fantasy after all. After calming down, he, who always liked rational thinking, threw those unrealistic ideas out of his mind and quietly became a social animal.

But the situation was different this time. With the server shutdown, some miraculous changes seemed to happen to Xue Cheng very fortunately, allowing him to really travel to this world that he once fascinated. Under the girl's puzzled gaze, Xue Cheng chuckled foolishly a few times, suddenly raised his arm, and slapped himself hard in the face.

"Hiss...it hurts! I'm not dreaming!"

3. Chongqing

"Admiral...what's wrong with you?" The girl quietly stepped back and kept some distance from Xue Cheng. This man had often done some incomprehensible things in the past. She wondered if he had fallen into his old habits again this time.

"It's okay, there are mosquitoes, mosquitoes..." Xue Cheng explained sheepishly. Fortunately, it was summer, so it was not surprising to see mosquitoes. After putting the girl off, Xue Cheng sat back at the table and picked up a slightly cold fried egg with chopsticks. While eating, he said, "Chongqing, I have something to do later. Come with me to the office."

Since it was confirmed that he had traveled through time, and into that familiar game, even if Xue Cheng was stupid, he could easily guess the identity of the girl in front of him based on her characteristics. This girl with a foreign face but dressed in the Chinese style was the Dawn Goddess, the ship in history that was delivered from Britain to China and renamed Chongqing.

In the game, even after the transformation, Chongqing's strength is not outstanding. However, since Chongqing is one of the few Chinese-born ship girls and her game portrait is very much to Xue Cheng's liking, she has received Xue Cheng's special training and also received a change of clothes and a ring.

If giving a ring in the game equals marriage, then the girl in front of him is his wife, right? Thinking of this, Xue Cheng's heart warmed: he never thought that he, who was ignored before crossing over, would actually be a married man.

"Go to the office? What are you going to do?" Perhaps because Xue Cheng's smirk was really obscene, Chongqing was full of vigilance at this time. She took light steps and moved away again. At the same time, she kept glancing at the door with her eyes, as if she would run away if anything went wrong.

For Chongqing, going to the office with the admiral is not a good thing. This bad man often calls the ship girls to the office and does some strange things. Chongqing has also been a victim.

Of course, those ship girls who were called to the office were most likely marriage ships with rings of oath, and even the military police could not make any accusations against Xue Cheng. In addition, not all ship girls were dissatisfied with this behavior. On the contrary, some of them enjoyed it very much, so in the end it developed a bit like Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai.

"Nothing, I just want to go over and take a look. You have nothing to do, right? Do you want to go with me?" Xue Cheng's purpose in asking Chongqing to go with him was certainly not as bad as she thought. Xue Cheng, who had just traveled through time, just didn't know where the office was and wanted to find a guide.

"What do you mean I have nothing to do?" Chongqing rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "In this entire garrison, besides the destroyer and the submarine, you're the only one who can say I have nothing to do. I have to help Sister Yixian prepare lunch soon, so I'm not going to be sitting around like you."

"You can cook too?" Xue Cheng's eyes widened. As a British ship, even after the transformation, it changed its nationality and became a Chinese ship girl, Xue Cheng didn't dare to believe her cooking skills. It's not that he really believed the rumor that the British were masters of dark cuisine, but in the game and in the player's secondary settings, the cooking skills of British ships did not seem to be highly regarded, so Xue Cheng was really worried.

"What's with that expression on your face!" Chongqing's face instantly turned red because she was angry. She also knew that when she was still on the Dawn Goddess, she really didn't have any talent for cooking. She could only make some dark dishes like stargazing pie and eel jelly. But since she was transformed into the Chongqing, her cooking skills seemed to have been divinely gifted and she made rapid progress. Although she is not as good as Ninghai and Pinghai now, let alone being compared with the Supreme Chef Yixian, her cooking skills are no longer comparable to the past.

"Don't get excited, I'm just asking casually." Xue Cheng smiled awkwardly. The girl's angry expression was pleasing to the eye, but too much is as bad as too little. No one knew how terrible the rage of a girl who was embarrassed and angry could be. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Since you have something to do, forget it. I can go by myself."

Chongqing glanced at Xue Cheng. She was sure that if she hadn't suddenly exploded just now, the admiral would definitely have criticized her. After all, this was not the first time he had done such a thing. This nasty guy usually liked to do things like elementary school boys bullying the girls they liked.

For example, he mocked Veneto as a destroyer, bought her an extremely revealing V-neck swimsuit, and dressed her in flying white, and asked her to perform a torpedo launch in front of everyone.

She likes to make fun of Hood's flat chest, and she also steals Kent's big tiger and Bismarck's Oscar, and then gives them to Hood, asking her to perform cat stuffing in public.

Or maybe have the Prince of Wales wear the same swimsuit as Veneto, then poke his finger at her and say something like, "We can't be brothers anymore."

The crimes committed by Xue Cheng in recent years are simply too numerous to list. If he were not an admiral, he would have been put into a gasoline barrel by Veneto and thrown into the sea as a target.

Seeing that Chongqing didn't seem to be in the mood, Xue Cheng didn't force it anymore and lowered his head to enjoy his already cold breakfast.

Perhaps because of the hangover, Xue Cheng had a huge appetite and the heavy breakfast was eaten up in no time. Seeing this, Chongqing silently took out a rag to wipe the table clean, put away the tableware, and took it out.

Just as Xue Cheng leaned back in his chair, ready to take a break before heading to the office, Chongqing suddenly opened the door and walked in. She was wearing a blue apron, and her hands still had some wet stains. Seeing Xue Cheng tilting his head to look at her, Chongqing casually took off her apron and put it aside, saying unhappily, "Aren't you going to the office? Why are you still hanging around here?"

"Uh, didn't you just say you didn't have time?" Xue Cheng blinked. In just over ten minutes, Chongqing's attitude seemed to have undergone a drastic reversal. She didn't know what had happened during the time she was out.

"I just calculated the time. Sister Yixian's place won't start for a while, so time isn't that tight." Chongqing frowned, his eyes a little evasive: "Do you want me to go with you? If not, that's perfect. I'll go find Sister Yixian."

"Yes, of course! Wait for me!" Xue Cheng jumped up. Having just traveled through time, Xue Cheng felt unfamiliar with everything. Only Chongqing in front of him was somewhat familiar to him. If he let her go at this time, it would be troublesome.

Xue Cheng hurried to the closet, took out a white navy uniform, put it on with Chongqing's help, and found a pair of new shoes before following Chongqing out the door.
