Shipgirls and Salted Fish Commander, Port Survival Guide

"It's alright, Curaçao. I'm quite happy being with them. This is a kind of care that makes me happy. Isn't that much better than any kind of care? Let's forget about any punishment."

Seeing this scene, Jing Su felt like he was helping Kent and Suffolk to ease the awkwardness. However, he wasn't lying; he was indeed very happy to be with these two sisters. Kent's energy and Suffolk's adorable silliness each had their own charm. If there weren't so many people around and some things that were inconvenient to do, Jing Su would really like to pinch their cheeks; he knew they would feel wonderful.

"Since Master has said so, then so be it. Suffolk, Kent, don't let this happen again~"

Curaçao sighed, but quickly adjusted her mindset, put on a gentle smile again, and said softly.

"Long live the Commander!"

Kent cheered, while Suffolk, belatedly realizing what had just happened, wore a confused expression on his adorable face.

Seeing this scene, Curaçao thought to herself, "As expected of our master, she made the sisters so happy with just a few words. It seems that it won't be a problem to let them take charge of an additional area in a few days. Hmph, they failed to fulfill their duties as royal maids, so punishment is still necessary."

Actually, Curaçao's words just now were inappropriate. Curaçao shouldn't have used such harsh language in front of so many people; it would have embarrassed Kent and Suffolk.

In other circumstances, Curaçao certainly wouldn't have acted this way. After all, her awe-inspiring presence comes from more than just her strictness. Her current statement suggests she's genuinely angry. On one hand, Curaçao values ​​the honor of being a royal maid above all else, and she won't allow anything to tarnish that honor. On the other hand, she's furious because, despite Yixian having already revealed that Jing Su needed to eat on time, why didn't anyone present offer Jing Su even a single piece of cake?

It's fine with the others, but Kent and Suffolk are members of the Royal Maid Corps. Although Suffolk and Kent are in the Royal Maid Corps more out of interest, since they are in the corps, as long as Jing Su is present, everything must be done with taking care of Jing Su as the top priority.

Under these circumstances, focusing solely on one's own enjoyment would be an absolute dereliction of duty.

Jing Su said it was no big deal, since it was mealtime and mealtime is a time for rest, no matter the occasion. If you're resting, thinking about work would be too stressful.

Of course, while one might think this way, one cannot simply say it. Jing Su's words just now were actually considering Curaçao's feelings. Regardless of the circumstances, Curaçao had already issued the order for punishment. Denying it at this point would be an infringement on Curaçao's authority. Although it's uncertain whether the ship girls care about these things, it's best to avoid any awkwardness that can be avoided.

If Glorious were present and saw this scene, he would also smile knowingly.

The ship girls value and care about Jing Su so much, and it's not just because of the past. Beneath those seemingly insignificant details, Jing Su is actually a very caring person who is considerate of others' feelings.

The ship girls have very different personalities, and most of them are actually quite unruly. The only one who can bring these people together is Jing Su. The internal conflicts within the port have always been huge. Even if we don't count the conflicts between different factions, there are still many conflicts within the same faction.

For example, if the Sakura Empire faction is left unattended without external pressure, internal fighting will break out among itself.

The entire port area has been able to maintain its current state entirely thanks to Jing Su. Didn't you see that not long after Jing Su disappeared, the port area split up? If it weren't for the four secretary ships uniting all the faction leaders, the different factions might have actually started fighting.

At first glance, you might not feel anything special when you're with Jing Su, but as you spend more time with her, you'll find that she's actually very caring. Her care isn't about what she does or says, but about the little details in everyday life.

Being with Jing Su is really comfortable. Sometimes, Guang Hui has wondered if, one day, he were to lose the memories of fighting together like Jing Su, would he still feel the same longing for her when they were together again?

Having spent these past few days together and shared memories, Guanghui knew that no matter how many times she repeated herself, her answer would be the same: with someone like Jing Su, no matter how many times, she would fall hopelessly in love with him, like a moth drawn to a flame.

After receiving Curaçao's tacit approval, Kent and Suffolk ran off happily, along with the York sisters. After all, with such a powerful figure present, they didn't have much of a chance, and staying any longer would be pointless.

It would be better to just leave, give the big boss face, and leave a good impression on Jing Su. That way, it will be easier to negotiate when there are any opportunities to strike again in the future.

Compared to other ship girls, the York-class and Kent-class have already won by leaving a lasting impression. After all, the four of them are just blue-rarity, their ship equipment performance is not very high, and they don't have any decent battle records. Apart from their good looks, what else is there to say about them?

In the port area, let's not even talk about looks. Every ship girl is pretty. The difference lies in whether they know how to dress up. If they don't know how to dress up, even a goddess's beauty will be turned into something ordinary. If they do know how to dress up, well, there aren't many average-looking girls in the port area.

"Master, is there anything else you'd like to eat? I'll go get it for you."

After Kent and his three companions left, Curaçao looked around. Wherever her gaze fell, the small boats gave way. This was the power of the Royal Head Maid!

"That's about enough. Any more and we probably won't be able to finish it." Jing Su smiled wryly. Actually, when the four heavy cruisers came over, a group of small boats fed him a lot of food, but those things were not suitable for his stomach.

Later, while chatting with Kent and the others, Jing Su was surprised to find that the food on his table was gone. This made Curaçao think that no one was feeding him, but in fact, no one was.

"Was it taken by the little yellow chick?"

While munching on a croissant, Jing Su pondered silently.

This is indeed a surprising thing. Although the little yellow chicks are mechanical creations, they are highly intelligent and have the ability to judge whether the food on a table needs to be cleaned up.

Moreover, Jing Su was still on the table. At most, he left for a while while carrying the small boat, but even so, he was still next to the dining table. When he came to his senses, the food that was originally stacked high was gone.

"Master, is the food not to your liking? Would you like me to get you a new one?" Seeing that Jing Su's expression was not right, Curacao moved closer to Jing Su, leaned down, and said softly.

"Ahem, it's nothing~ I was just thinking about some other things."

Curaçao's actions stunned Jing Su, who stared wide-eyed before quickly looking away.

It's important to know that even though Curaçao is a light cruiser, her size is comparable to that of an aircraft carrier battle group, especially in the Royal Navy. A significant number of battleships are not as good as her. Not only among the three Elizabeth-class cruisers, but even excluding the Vanguard, Curaçao can be described as majestic.

At this moment, Curaçao's outfit is the style of the modified JOJO pose. The biggest difference between her outfit before the modification and her outfit before the modification is that the cover on Curaçao's bridge is now open. In the unmodified pose, the bridge is completely covered by a maid outfit, with no glimpse of her private parts.

But now, it's not just a simple glimpse of spring; it's aimed at bewitching Jing Su.

As it turns out, after receiving Jing Su's ring, Curaçao completely let go of herself. Before, Curaçao was a light cruiser in the royal camp and the head steward of the royal maid corps, but now Curaçao is just Jing Su's little wife, with her mind full of thoughts about how to snuggle herself into Jing Su's arms.

Previously, Curaçao had always strictly adhered to the maid's code of conduct, rarely giving herself time to rest. Even when Queen Elizabeth ordered her to rest, she didn't know what to do when she wasn't on duty. Even when she was forced to rest, she would still unconsciously take out a broom or something similar to clean up the dust on the floor.

Now, Curacao feels that it's good to take a break occasionally, so that she can focus on serving Jing Su.

Upon waking up in the morning, offer a heartfelt greeting, ideally a good morning kiss. Then, personally prepare a delicious breakfast for Jing Su. Jing Su sits at the table, her expression solemn, and finishes her breakfast bit by bit. Afterward, she comments, "Hmm, Curaçao, today's breakfast is quite good. I really like it."

Afterwards, he expressed his gratitude, but the commander said that words alone were not enough. "Come here, into my arms, let me see if you have grown enough last night."

Then she said, "Master, this is not in accordance with etiquette. You are the master, and I am just a lowly maid."

Jing Su then said, "What's wrong with a maid? Isn't this the time when maids come to 'bully' us?"

He then added, "There are still many people watching."

Jing Su said, "Haha, then let them see, let them know that you are mine. From now on, you are only allowed to serve me. From today onwards, you are only my maid~"

Then, the one who was bullied was disheveled, blushing, and screaming in pain.

"Curaçao, are you alright?"

Seeing Curaçao suddenly tremble and turn red in the face, Jing Su asked her worriedly.

"Yeah~"

When Curaçao came to her senses, layers of white smoke immediately rose from her head, showing that she was genuinely embarrassed.

"?"

Jing Su was stunned. What had she done? She hadn't done anything, so why was Curaçao reacting this way?

Rather, you're saying that by making this gesture, do you want me to do something?

Thinking of this, Jing Su glanced at Curaçao with a strange look in her eyes.

"Master, I...I'm fine, I just...distracted myself~"

Sure enough, that kind of thing is still too embarrassing. Even just thinking about it in public makes me so excited.

'If only all those things I'm thinking about were true, to only take care of my master, to belong only to my master—that would be so joyful, so blissful. I really hope that one day it can come true~'

Chapter 151 What did I do?

The farce in the cafeteria finally came to an end with the appearance of a radiant figure.

It was clear that Glorious was truly angry this time; the aura emanating from her completely suppressed all the ship girls present.

"The commander needs to rest now, so we're disturbing him."

After leaving behind those words, Glorious grabbed Jing Su and left, leaving the ship girls looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Alright, everyone, you can leave now. If you want to continue eating, a royal maid will come over later. If you don't want to eat, go to the lounge. Her Majesty the Queen just ordered that the homework tonight be doubled, and it will be checked tomorrow."

"Ah!?" A chorus of groans erupted in the cafeteria.

. . .

"Commander, this is too reckless."

After a long and winding journey, Jing Su was led to a small pavilion. On the table were some still-steaming food, while Ke Wei sat anxiously beside him, his eyes darting around as if waiting for something, yet afraid to leave.

Upon seeing Jing Su and Guang Hui appear, Ke Wei was overjoyed and quickly stood up. Just as he was about to say something, Guang Hui glared at him and stopped him.

In a corner where Jing Su couldn't see, Guanghui mouthed, "I'll deal with you when we get back!"

"Ahem, actually, it's nothing serious." Seeing the table full of food, Jing Su roughly guessed why Guanghui had rushed over and quickly comforted him.

"Commander, I'm not trying to be mean, but children don't know any better. How can you act so recklessly? Remember, you are the head of the household. You must have the authority you're entitled to. If you always act like this and never argue with what others say, how can you manage this household?"

And, Kewei, don't speak yet, your problem is even more serious!

As she spoke, Glorious calmed herself down, and the full bridge of her ship swayed with her breath, creating a unique and charming scene.

"..."

As it turns out, Radiance in his berserk state is someone who is unlucky enough to encounter. Not to mention fearsome, even Jing Su has to lower his head and tremble in fear when facing Radiance in this state.

"Is your older sister like this in private too?"

With her head bowed and eyes lowered, Jing Su communicated with Ke Wei through her gaze.

"No, my sister usually has a very good temper. I've never seen her get angry before. This is the first time I've ever seen her so angry."

To be precise, Guanghui wasn't without anger, but his good manners prevented him from losing his composure even when angry. Now, with two people in front of him, one his lover and the other his sister, both of whom were his flesh and blood, and now these two were being so affectionate in front of him, Guanghui suddenly felt like he was punching cotton.

"You two! Seriously, sigh~" Seeing this, Guanghui was even more frustrated. After learning about Jingsu's situation in the cafeteria, he rushed over in a hurry, only to get this result!

"Eh!?"

Just as he was feeling down, Guanghui suddenly found himself being embraced by a warm and soft hug.

"Don't be angry. We know we were wrong, and we won't do it again." Jing Su whispered in Guanghui's ear.

"Even if you say that, I still, I still! Ah!"

Jing Su's sudden action startled Guang Hui, whose cheeks flushed red. Guang Hui was already a seasoned veteran, and no matter what Jing Su did in private, she would at most blush, but she would never lose her composure.

But now, with Weiwei still by his side, Guanghui inexplicably felt a sense of adultery about doing such a thing next to his own sister.

'That's not right. I'm the older sister, I was here first. Besides, isn't it this girl who's really having an affair? She's the one who should feel guilty!'

So why is this happening? I was here first, so why do I have this strange feeling of guilt?

Yes, it was Kewei's fault after all. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have felt this way. As expected, younger sisters should be properly taken care of, otherwise they always try to take things from their older sisters.

However, this feeling is truly quite strange.

At first, Jing Su was holding Guang Hui, while Ke Wei watched the commotion from the sidelines. At that moment, she didn't have any particular feelings, since everyone knew how angry Guang Hui had been earlier and she needed to comfort him quickly.

But as he tried to comfort her, he realized something was wrong.

Sister, at first the Commander was holding you, when did it become you hugging the Commander?

Wait, what are you going to do?

No, you can't kiss me! I... Waaah! You can't! How could you do this in front of me!

I only dare to come here secretly, ahhh!

Sister, you big bad guy!

Now it was Kewei's turn to feel wronged, but she couldn't say anything. When her older sister forcibly kissed Jing Su, she also blocked Kewei's figure. In other words, no matter what Kewei did or what expression she made, Jing Su couldn't see it.

At first, it was indeed Jing Su who was comforting Guang Hui, but who is Guang Hui? She is one of the four secretary ships in the port, the earliest ship girl to follow Jing Su, and her information in the entire port is among the top. In other words, she doesn't need to consider other people's opinions at all.

So, after Guanghui came to his senses, Jingsu was given a French kiss, a long kiss. This time, Guanghui put in all his effort and almost made Jingsu faint.

"Whoo~"

After the two had been entangled in a tongue-twisting for several minutes, Guanghui finally let go of Jingsu, almost giving her a thank-you look. Jingsu, on the other hand, was clutching her chest, panting, both from exhaustion and because she had almost run out of breath.

How terrifying! With his hands wide open and his eyes covered, he openly peeked.

Wow, I didn't know you could do that! You're such a good older sister, I've learned something new.

Just like how Glorious quickly turned defense into offense after realizing what was happening, Fearless also quickly snapped out of his aggrieved state.

Please, this is my own sister, Glorious!

Need I say more about her relationship with the Commander? In short, it's perfectly normal for her sister and the Commander to be intimate. Since it's normal, why should she be angry?

Not at all. It's better to take this opportunity to observe and learn how to play in more creative ways.

It must be admitted that some things, once read in a book, are never as impactful as seeing them with your own eyes.

"Commander, will you dare to do it again next time?" Looking at Jing Su, who was panting, Guanghui felt a pang of heartache. Had he gone too far? But thinking about what happened in the cafeteria today, he still felt he had to harden his heart.

"Ah, I won't dare, I'll never dare again~" Jing Su said helplessly. He really wanted to ask, what dare? Did he do anything outrageous in the cafeteria? No, he hadn't even hugged anyone many times. At most, he hugged a javelin, and then, he just chatted with people.

At most, we'll chat for a relatively long time.

However, Guanghui was still clearly somewhat angry, so Jingsu promptly comforted him.

"So, what did you do wrong?" Guanghui saw through Jing Su's intention, and asked with a smile.

Jing Su was stunned.
