Help, I'm surrounded by yandere shipgirls

Shen Xin consciously refrained from bringing up any further topics related to Chicheng.

But deep down I still felt a little uneasy.

He was certain that something must have happened to Akagi; the more people avoided the topic, the more serious the situation must be.

It seems that Akagi's imprisonment of himself has caused quite a stir.

I have an obligation and a need to find out where Akagi is.

Yes, if I ask my wife, she might tell me.

It wasn't because Akagi had successfully brainwashed and manipulated him during his imprisonment, but simply because he didn't want to see any more ship girls suffer any harm because of him.

After all, he didn't care how he had been treated before.

We cannot allow him to cause conflict among the ship girls.

Although he had no experience in building a harem, there was one principle that Shen Xin was absolutely determined to uphold: world peace, harmony, and friendship.

After lunch, I lay on Atago's lap and took a comfortable, simple nap.

The time for the so-called public trial has arrived.

Shen Xin was very curious about what kind of event made the ship girls around her look like they were facing a great enemy.

But subconsciously, I felt it was better to keep quiet and not ask any more questions.

"My wife, I'm leaving the house in your care, and dinner too~"

Atago smiled and tugged at her white glove.

"Okay, you guys go ahead~ I'm not going~ I'll take care of everything at home~"

Although my wife's tone sounded exactly the same as usual, Shen Xin felt that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.

Suddenly feeling guilty, Shen Xin punched her chest as she looked at her wife's ever-present smile.

He felt a little sorry for my wife.

Although he walked out of the house in a very cool manner without looking back, Shen Xin suddenly turned around and stared blankly at his wife.

"My wife...my wife..."

"?" Azuma, whose smile had been on her face the whole time, tilted her head.

"then!"

Shen Xin deftly pulled the Oath Ring from her pocket and tossed it over.

The ring shimmered with a beautiful light and landed in my wife's hand.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

It exploded; a whole ring of gunpowder barrels around it exploded.

Shen Xin's actions clearly provoked the other ship girls.

Shen Xin had anticipated this outcome from the beginning, so he was mentally prepared for it.

However, the actual impact far exceeded Shen Xin's expectations.

"It's gone! It's gone, really gone! You stripped me naked and there was nothing left! I swear to God! Oh my gosh!! Taihou, what are you doing!! Shoes, shoes!! Atago, wait a minute, wow! You guys!! I'll give each of you one in a few days, okay? Please spare me!"

Although we couldn't see Shen Xin being attacked by the mob, her screams of agony could be heard continuously.

“Anada…”

My wife was quite excited at this moment; her hands trembled as she tightly gripped the ring in her palms.

"I love you..."

What should have been a 15-minute journey took a full hour to complete.

Thanks to Mingmiao's shop nearby, Shen Xin was prevented from having to be completely naked with the other ship girls.

The so-called public trial.

The actual location was still the shrine where Nagato lived.

It's the same old place; nothing special about it.

However, being the Sakura Empire, there is a tranquil and elegant courtyard inside the shrine.

In the center was a covered, seemingly dry well. Around it were houses.

Nagato sat upright in the main hall, her arms slightly raised, while the Sakura Empire ship girls stood in neat and solemn rows on both sides.

Almost simultaneously, they all knelt down on the ground in a very rhythmic and coordinated manner.

With their movements so synchronized, Shen Xin wondered if they had rehearsed beforehand.

And what's going on here? Why make such a big fuss...?

Wow...

Shen Xin narrowed her eyes, surprised that so many people had come today.

Besides the four sisters from Kaohsiung, Shinano, Musashi, and Taihou who brought themselves to the scene, there are also Nagato, Mutsu, and Ekaze, as well as Unzen, Shimakaze, Sotsuru, the Kongo-class sisters, Ryuhou, Suruga, Kii, Izumo, Hakuryu, and Soryu.

It can be said that almost all of the core members of the Sakura Empire were present, making for a very grand occasion.

However, neither Azuma nor Noshiro came.

Even on my first day in Sakura Empire, I had never seen such a grand scene.

It seems something serious must have happened.

As Shen Xin was pondering this, she was suddenly hugged from behind.

I felt as if I had been easily plunged into darkness once again.

This feel... it's definitely Amagi.

The reason Shen Xin made such an accurate judgment is that, apart from Tiancheng, there is only one person in the Sakura Empire with such an impressive figure who is also wearing a black bodysuit.

Furthermore, Amagi is the only ship girl who covered herself up without feeling any discomfort, which is very rare.

Without saying anything, Shen Xin regained her vision in just a few seconds.

"Eh?"

Shen Xin looked at Tiancheng, who was showing her the gentlest smile, and was somewhat puzzled.

The ship girls surrounding Amagi seem to look a bit strange.

I feel a chill slowly creeping in; please keep it close to your body.

This was definitely not an illusion; it was a real, tangible chill.

Fortunately, the chill didn't last too long.

Mutsu, who had just reached the central dry well, pressed his throat and cleared it.

It seems there's something important to announce.

"The Commander has decreed that the traitor who plotted to imprison the Commander, the First Carrier Division aircraft carrier Akagi, is to be executed!!"

As they spoke, the lid of the dry well slowly opened, revealing Akagi, who was bound hand and foot inside.

Episode 112 Akagi: The one who's wrong isn't me, it's this world.

Eh?

Shen Xin was stunned and speechless.

He subconsciously frowned, squinted, and looked at Mutsu, who had just finished reading, with the same puzzled expression.

"A public trial???"

Shen Xin glanced at the heavyweight Jian Nian sitting around her, and Chi Cheng kneeling in the center, bound hand and foot.

This scene seems familiar.

A month ago, I witnessed the exact same scene.

The one tied in the middle is Helena Meta.

But now, it's Akagi instead.

I haven't seen Akagi for several days.

When they met again, Akagi had lost her former arrogance; after all, she was now clearly a prisoner.

This feeling gave Shen Xin the sense that she had wandered into an ancient costume drama and was watching a beheading in a vegetable market.

However, the Sakura Empire probably wouldn't go that far. At most, they would just list Akagi's crimes, but they shouldn't go that far.

Their eyes met.

The moment Chicheng saw Shen Xin, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Great! Finally, I've finally seen the Commander again.

Despite her poor health, Shen Xin noticed that when their eyes met, a light clearly shone in Akagi's eyes.

My body was covered in dust and dirt, but my spirits had returned to their best.

It seems that Chicheng has regarded me as spiritual nourishment and a source of faith.

One glance, just one glance, is enough to give Akagi the power of rebirth.

"Then, defendant Akagi, let us list the crimes you have committed."

Mutsu cleared his throat; it was almost time for the reckoning.

"Imprisoning a commander, causing severe damage and destruction to the commander's body and mind, is one of the crimes."

"The fact that the commander is monopolized not only makes other ship girls exhausted in their search for the commander, wasting a lot of manpower, resources and time, but also causes incalculable economic losses, which is the second crime."

"Because the imprisonment of the commander nearly caused a serious diplomatic incident, Ironblood also provided us with strong external support, and at the same time nearly caused a conflict with Donghuang, this is the third crime."

Mutsu spoke methodically, his tone unusually solemn.

"Akagi, do you plead guilty?"

After listing Akagi's crimes.

The ship girls below the stage looked at each other in surprise. The other ship girls who were not involved in this matter were hearing such a big juicy story for the first time.

This is unprecedented and extremely heinous. It's hard to believe that Akagi, a yandere, could do something like this.

But I didn't expect her to actually have the guts to do things so outrageously and absolutely; Akagi is being a bit too extreme.

Tiancheng, sitting in the audience, was sweating bullets, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

There's not much more to say; Akagi did indeed do those things.

I'm not confident I can get Akagi out of this situation or offer any explanation. After all, if I put myself in her shoes, my own situation is also quite awkward and delicate.

So now we can only rely on the commander.

Tiancheng's eyes darted around, drawing Shen Xin's attention to her gaze.

The moment their eyes met, Tiancheng winked charmingly, seemingly conveying some message to Shen Xin.

Shen Xin paused for a moment, then nodded knowingly.

He now understands very well that Akagi will ultimately be held accountable, but this has become far too big of a deal.

It was somewhat outrageous, and Shen Xin began to worry.

This is Sakura Empire, not Eagle Union.

In the White Eagle region, the public trial system, similar to that of the United States, is followed, with a jury, and the handling of cases is relatively lenient.

Even when facing Helena Meta from the Ember faction, they didn't go too far.

However, the Cherry Blossom Empire is different.

The ship girls' gentleness is only directed towards themselves; they probably aren't that tender towards their own girls.

Shen Xin's memory was incredibly clear. He knew very well that Sakura Empire operated on a dog-eat-dog worldview and set of values. Therefore, Akagi, who had made such a grave mistake, would undoubtedly pay an incredibly cruel price. Shen Xin didn't even dare to imagine the punishment that would follow.

As for the extent to which he could protect Akagi, he wasn't sure, even with his privileges in Sakura Empire.

"Humph!"
