Daily life with the ship girl

"Well, I have a question, can I ask you?"

Nuremberg looked at Li Ran deeply, and then, in the surprised eyes of everyone, he took out a notebook from the ship's space, and wrote something quickly. After he finished writing, he said:

"Of course, please ask, Admiral."

"I would like to ask, is your group leader Tirpitz?"

"That's right." Nuremberg looked at Bismarck meaningfully, and then said:

"Admiral, are you wondering where our captain is now?"

Li Ran smiled awkwardly. Since his little trick had been exposed, he simply admitted it generously:

"That's right. My Bismarck is Tirpitz's sister after all. I got the news from Lexington that Bei Zhai had dropped out of the First Ship Girl Academy, so I wanted to see her."

"Bei Zhai?" Nuremberg chewed on the two words, then said:

"It's a very appropriate title, but I'm sorry, our leader left the mercenary group's base when we accepted this escort commission. Even I don't know where she is."

"what do you mean?"

"That homegirl may have gone to Beihai again." Hindenburg thought the Japanese sake tasted good. She drank a few glasses and then said with a little bit of alcohol:

"But the North Sea seems to be quite dangerous right now, so if you want to go there, you'd better be prepared for death."

"Beihai?" Bai Nuoyan's face changed slightly, and she said in shock:

"Are you talking about the uncharted North Sea?"

"That's right, that place seems to be inextricably linked to Bei Zhai's memories, but we don't know how to get there. I really don't understand why she went there?" Hindenburg's alcohol tolerance was too weak. Li Ran's words "heroine" just now greatly satisfied her self-esteem. After all, unlike other ship girls who inherited the name of a warship with glorious battles, she inherited the name of a half-blueprint ship. She has always felt a little unhappy with those famous ship girls, and it is inevitable that she said something she shouldn't have said after drinking too much.

Seeing that Hindenburg was beginning to speak incoherently, Nuremberg said hastily:

"Everyone, Hindenburg is drunk and talking nonsense. I'm going to take her to rest first."

"Please go ahead." Lei Ming felt that the situation was a little strange. He was a little confused as to why a good lunch had turned out like this. However, since the guests requested a rest, he said to Shan Cheng:

"Take them to the back hall to rest."

"Okay, I got it. Please follow me." Yamashiro stood up. The black kimono on her always gave people a feeling of misfortune, especially with pink cherry blossoms embroidered on it.

She and Nuremberg set Hindenburg up and left.

Li Ran looked at Bismarck's anxious face and thought:

I really shouldn't be asking this question.

"Bismarck?" Li Ran thought for a moment and said:

"Don't worry, maybe Bei Zhai is not going to the North Sea. Besides, this world is so big, the North Sea may not necessarily be an unknown sea."

Bai Nuoyan wanted to say that there was only one North Sea in this world, but was stopped by Hipper. He only heard Hipper say:

"Admiral, stop talking."

Bai Nuoyan then realized that Bismarck's face looked extremely bad, and she immediately gave up in disappointment.

The lunch ended in this somewhat awkward atmosphere, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Li Ran also felt very embarrassed. After all, he had ruined the mood of such a great banquet. He asked Lexington and Bismarck to go back to the Princess Yunyan and wait for him, and then he found Lei Ming.

Lei Ming heard the report from Atago, saying that Li Ran wanted to see him. He thought about it and agreed, then watched Li Ran walk into the office alone, feeling a little strange:

"Li Ran, why haven't you left yet? Didn't you say you had something urgent to do?"

"It's like this. I want to talk to Nuremberg alone, but they are guests in your house, so I don't want to bother them. That's why I thought of discussing it with you. It won't take too long."

"I thought it was something serious. So, Atago, take Li Ran to the guest room."

"I understand, Admiral. Admiral Li Ran, please come this way." Atago nodded, then said politely to Li Ran.

"Thank you very much, Major Lei." Li Ran thanked him quickly, then hurriedly followed Atago to the guest room.

When Li Ran left the office, Fuso, who had been resting in the office cubicle, changed into casual clothes and sat in Lei Ming's arms:

"Husband, it seems that you didn't have enough fun today. Fusang, do you want to help your husband relieve some stress?"

"Fuso, you're drunk again. Ugh, hiss, stop it. It won't be good if Shancheng sees you later."

"What does it matter? My husband hasn't been released for several days. You are very honest here..."

Well, while the shameless drama was going on in Lei Ming’s office, Li Ran and Atago came to the guest room.

"Why is it you?" Nuremberg heard the knock on the door. She was looking at Hindenburg who was drunk and unconscious. She was a little upset because she thought of all the things Hindenburg had said that he shouldn't have said. When she heard the knock on the door, she saw the anxious look on Bismarck's admiral's face. She said calmly:

"Excuse me, Admiral, what can I do for you?"

"Um, can I talk to you alone?"

Atago looked at Li Ran's expression, she sighed, and then said:

"You two can go next door. It's more secluded there. Shancheng and I will take good care of Hindenburg."

"Then thank you very much." Nuremberg hesitated for a moment, then looked at Li Ran who came to see her alone, thinking that maybe there was something urgent, so she nodded:

"Then thank you both for your help."

Li Ran breathed a sigh of relief, then walked into the room next to the guest room with Nuremberg. This room should be a tea room or something like that, because the previous conference room in Lei Ming's admiral's mansion had been destroyed. Otherwise, those who were supposed to go to the conference room to talk had to settle for the tea room next to the conference room.

But the tea room was relatively quiet. He watched Nuremberg sit down, then quickly stood up and confirmed that there was no one in the corridor before closing the door. He then sat opposite Nuremberg, then pondered for a moment and said:

"Your people are here with me."

Nuremberg was stunned for a while by Li Ran's nonsensical words, and then she said blankly:

"What do you mean my people?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Li's face. He was so anxious that he couldn't even speak. He quickly organized his words and then talked about Z24 in his own garrison.

To be honest, this was the first time that Li Ran wanted to take the initiative to salvage the ship, especially since Nuremberg had silver hair and a nanny-like temperament. More importantly, Nuremberg must know the whereabouts of Bismarck's sister. For the sake of his own ship girl, he would do whatever it takes to make Nuremberg his own ship girl.

"Admiral, are you serious?" Nuremberg was a little skeptical. After all, Li Ran's words were so inexplicable and not very convincing.

"That's true. Didn't you send U47 out to sea not long ago and then lost contact? U47 is also in my port area."

Little did he know that to Nuremberg, Li Ran's words were like, they are all my ship girls now, so Nuremberg got into a dilemma.

Li Ran looked at Nuremberg and fell into deep thought. He thought that the other party had noticed his intention, so he quickly explained:

"I'm sorry, I know that what I said was a bit presumptuous, but I have no other intentions in coming here. I just want Miss Nuremberg to believe that I came here just to tell you that Z24 and the others miss you very much."

This made Nuremberg misunderstand the fact that Li Ran was already Z24's shipgirl. She understood that Li Ran came to ask her to become a shipgirl after seeing her and remembering Z24's request. She couldn't help but feel a little moved, but if she agreed to it, this man would inevitably be proud. She pondered for a while and said:

"Well, as long as the admiral can stay here for two days, Hindenburg and I will escort you back to your garrison. What do you think?"

Li Ran thought for a while and said:

"Okay, I'll go talk to Lexington then."

"No, Admiral, what I mean is that you stay in the Thunder Garrison alone for two days, and then Hindenburg and I will escort you back, how about that?" Nuremberg shook her head, and then she explained.

Li Ran was completely stunned. He came to Nuremberg hoping to persuade him to go to his garrison. After all, regardless of whether the ship could be salvaged or not, the resettlement of Z24 and the others had always been a matter of concern to Bismarck. And after hearing what Hindenburg said after drinking, it was inevitable that Bismarck must be even more anxious at this time. He was thinking about doing something for Bismarck.

But what does Nuremberg mean by that? Why don't you just go and tell him? But if I stay here alone for two days, will Lexington and Bismarck agree?

"Well, I'll try to talk to Lexington and the others. After all, I have a lot of urgent matters in the port area, so it's inconvenient for me to stay outside for too long."

"No, I'll go back with you." Nuremberg saw that Li Ran really agreed. She thought that his sincerity was enough. It would be a good idea to go back with him to see if the children were doing well and consider his suggestions. So she changed her address to Li Ran to a respectful one:

"Please wait a moment. I'll go talk to Shancheng and thank them for their hospitality these past few days."

"Well, please, Miss Nuremberg. I can wait." Li Ran nodded hurriedly and breathed a sigh of relief. Everything would be fine as long as he didn't stay. After all, there were a lot of things to deal with in the port, and he couldn't wait to meet the two ship girls he had built. He would not give up the first meeting with the ship girls he had built just to salvage the ship. After all, there was a failure rate in salvaging the ship, but the ship girls that had been successfully built would definitely become his own ship girls.

Weighing the pros and cons between the two, Li Ran chose both without a doubt.

So he immediately told Lexington that he would be delayed for about half an hour, and he also told Bismarck that he had a surprise for her.

Half an hour later, in the cabin of Princess Yunyan, Lexington and Bismarck watched Li Ran and Nuremberg place Hindenburg on the bed, and then looked at their admiral with inquiring eyes, hoping that their admiral would give them an explanation.

Shancheng, who was standing on the dock, sighed at this moment. She had been unable to contact the admiral. She just heard the admiral say that she could make the decision on everything. So she sent Nuremberg and Hindenburg away. She felt a little nervous standing on the dock. What if her admiral knew the news?

What she didn't know was that Lei Ming and her sister were busy with unspeakable things in the office and had no time to pay attention to these things for the time being.

Chapter 146: Kiss

Li Ran looked at Lexington and Bismarck with doubts on their faces. He felt a little guilty:

"Well, I told Miss Nuremberg about Z24 and the others, so she agreed to go back to the tutelary fort with us."

"Oh." A hint of vigilance flashed in Lexington's eyes.

Bismarck looked at Nuremberg deeply. After all, this ship girl was her sister's nanny when she was a child. She didn't feel much disgusted and just nodded.

Li Ran felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and this was a female cabin after all, so he couldn't stay there for too long, so he quickly said:

"Well, Miss Nuremberg, I won't disturb your rest."

"You are too polite, Admiral. I am sorry for bothering you this time." Nuremberg took off his hat, adjusted his white hair, and said to Lexington and Bismarck:

"I apologize to you two on behalf of Hindenburg for this luncheon."

"It's okay. The commander doesn't care, so we have no reason to be angry." Lexington knew that Bismarck didn't like to talk much, so she responded and then said:

"We are going to disturb your rest now, Commander, let's go."

"Yeah." Li Ran nodded and opened the door of the cabin.

When the footsteps of the three people faded away, Nuremberg sighed, took a wet towel from the bedside and put it on Hindenburg's forehead. Looking at Hindenburg who was still drunk, he said to himself helplessly:

"You are so grown up, but you still act like a child."

……

Li Ran, Lexington and Bismarck walked out of the second-floor cabin together and went up to the deck of Princess Yunyan. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Admiral, I..." Although Bismarck was usually serious and didn't like to talk much, it didn't prove that she was ignorant of the ways of the world. On the contrary, when Li Ran brought Nuremberg over, she knew what the surprise Li Ran was talking about, but the words of thanks were still a little difficult to say.

Although Lexington was somewhat concerned about the attitude of the two ship girls towards the admiral before, she saw Bismarck hesitated to speak, so she quickly said:

"Commander, you guys chat, I'll go talk to Miss Bai."

Li Ran showed a look of gratitude, and then he saw a hint of resentment in Lexington's eyes, and he felt even more guilty.

Bismarck had been thinking about her sister's trip to the North Sea. She was completely unfamiliar with the North Sea in this world. When she heard Hindenburg say that the place was in unknown waters and was very dangerous, she became a little worried and did not notice the flirting between Li Ran and Lexington.

Li Ran waited until Lexington was far away, then he walked to Bismarck, gently placed his hand on her shoulder and said:

"I know what you want to say. This is the surprise I gave you first. However, I haven't asked Nuremberg about the whereabouts of Bei Zhai yet, so this surprise has not been fulfilled. I'm sorry, Bismarck."

Bismarck raised her head and saw Li Ran putting his hand on her shoulder. Her body stiffened instinctively, and then she made a bold move.

She hugged Li Ran and said:

"Thank you, Admiral."

Li Ran was stunned by Bismarck's action, and then he thought of the kiss that night, and said to himself, she is my ship girl, so it should be okay to hug her, so he boldly put his hand on Bismarck's back and said:

"There's no need to be so polite between us. I promised you that I would help you find the whereabouts of Bei Zhai. Now that a clue has finally appeared, you should be happy."

"Admiral?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I...I like you."

"I like you too." Li Ran said this almost subconsciously, and then he felt his chest getting wet.

Bismarck, she actually cried!

I'm shocked! Wasn't it agreed that she was a strict, rigorous, and tough German female soldier?

Then he realized that the Battleship Girls, after all, also existed as women. Even though they had feelings far beyond those of ordinary people, they also had the fragile characteristics of women. He gently hugged Bismarck tighter, and then said in a low voice:

"Bismarck, I promise you that no matter how dangerous the North Sea in this world is, I will definitely bring the North House back to you safely!"

"Admiral, am I useless?" Bismarck said this in a low voice.

Li Ran was stunned for a moment. Sure enough, the German cat still cared about the fact that he returned to the port halfway during the previous expedition? He gently pulled Bismarck in front of him, looked at the beauty with tears in her eyes, and thought of a word:

Soft cat.

That's right, after Bismarck's tough aura disappeared, he was just a soft cat. He instinctively felt his heart beating. Although he had traveled through time for so long and every one of the ship girls was a beauty, this feeling of heartbeat surged into his heart for the first time. He couldn't help but lower his head and kissed the cherry lips of this Persian cat.

Bismarck widened her eyes in horror, and then fell into Li Ran's gentle offensive. At this moment, she felt that her heart belonged to him, even though this man had only been her admiral not long ago.

Bai Nuoyan almost dropped the fruit plate when she saw this. She looked at Lexington next to her and felt that it was not worth it for Lexington. She said:
