"We're almost there. Turn left at the big banyan tree in front."

Walking forward and turning a corner, a low bungalow came into view. It was very dilapidated, but at least it was still intact.

Huang Chen walked forward, opened the door skillfully, and invited Essex in.

The living room is right at the entrance, with a chair and table, a lamp, and nothing else.

"Commander lives in a place like this now?" Essex looked around and asked in surprise. In any case, this was not a very good place.

"I don't have money, so I can only afford to live in a place like this." Huang Chen explained.

"How could the Commander be broke?" Essex was surprised. "You know so many things, how could you not make money?"

“…But we are planning to move today. Would you like some water?” Huang Chen asked, walking into the kitchen to boil some water.

"Moving? Where are you moving to, Commander?"

“A place a little closer to the company.”

"Company? Commander? You..." Essex followed in and asked in surprise, "Aren't you planning to rebuild the port area?"

Chapter 004 Done

"To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet." Huang Chen intended to tell the truth. If the person in front of him was someone like Akagi Ron, he would not dare to say it like that, but isn't this Essex?

"Commander or something, it's too far away."

"What do you mean far? Aren't you the commander?"

"That being said, being a commander isn't a job without any barriers to entry, right?" Huang Chen filled the pot with water, lit the fire, then turned and looked at Essex.

"I'm responsible for feeding and clothing hundreds of people, coordinating missions, exercises, and commissions. I also oversee scientific research, schools, resource acquisition, and so on..."

"To be honest, I don't quite know what to do."

"What do you mean by not knowing what to do?" Essex looked at Huang Chen expressionlessly. He seemed aloof, but for some reason, Huang Chen always felt a little dazed.

"That's right, I can't do it. I don't think I'm up to it."

"But you haven't done this before?"

"Ah?" Huang Chen was stunned.

"These are all made by the secretary ship, such as food, clothing, scientific research and learning. You are doing the commissioned exercises, but..." Essex looked at Huang Chen, a little hesitant, not knowing whether to say it.

"But those things you do every day are just simple decisions about what commissions to take on. For exercises and the like, you just give an order and conduct exercises with so-and-so. Everything else is handled by the secretary ship."

"You have to go to collect the resources, but it's just a simple signature. The specific transportation, storage, and accounting will be handled by the secretary ship."

"Huh? No way? If that's the case, then what did I do as the commander?" Huang Chen asked in surprise.

"You'll be with us during sorties, directing our battles. But...actually, you don't direct us most of the time. To be more precise, you only direct us during the first few times we go to each sea area."

"Anything else?" Huang Chen's eyes widened. Attacking and such were the most basic parts of the game. Of course, he had to do it himself. Even so, he had to be self-disciplined as much as possible and go around as much as possible.

It's like going to the front line together or something like that. That's the setting in Azure, but I don't know how it's achieved.

"Nothing else...right?" Essex's amber eyes darted back and forth. "Just sitting in the office doing nothing every day, I guess?"

"Ask us to wear strange clothes?"

"Making trouble in the dormitory?"

"Or maybe just poke and prod at the secretary ship?"

"...Okay, I get it." Huang Chen waved his hand, interrupting Essex's spellcasting. "It sounds like there won't be any problems even without a commander, right?"

"I feel like I'm just adding to the chaos!"

"How can you say that?" Essex looked at Huang Chen in disbelief. "How can there be no commander?"

"It is you who summoned us from the memories of steel, or freed us from the sirens."

"Even if the commander does nothing, he's still just causing trouble. He's idle all day, but he can't be without me anyway!"

"As long as she's with the Commander, the Shipgirl won't feel lost and can do anything."

"Puff--" In an instant, the hot water in the pot boiled, lifted the lid and extinguished the flames.

Huang Chen turned around hurriedly and said as he turned off the fire, "But I really can't remember those memories of the port area."

As for the saying that it’s just a game, is it possible to say that?

"It's okay, even if you can't remember anything, you're still our commander! If the memories of the past are gone, let's create new and beautiful memories!"

"No matter how far you go, I will always be by your side, and keep going with you."

Huang Chen was stunned. A beautiful girl had spoken what seemed like a confession right before his eyes. Could he still have the heart to refuse? But Commander Cricket, rebuilding the port is something others can do, so why can't I?

Why think so much? Hesitant and hesitant, finally getting a new life, is it going to be another life of mediocrity?

Can't I just be a commander?

It's done!

What can't be done?

"In that case..." Huang Chen looked at the girl in front of him, his eyes filled with determination and hope for the future, "Then let's get started! Rebuild the port area!"

"But first, let's go see Bumblebee!" He thought and said, "First, find our companions!"

Chapter 005 Some Memories of Bumblebee

Sometimes I think about how incredibly large the port area was back then.

The afternoon sun was less glaring, illuminating the flags blown by the sea breeze. People walked under the shadows of the trees, discussing interesting topics and laughing from time to time.

In the pavilion of the garden, the royal ship girl was serving black tea.

On the beach by the sea, there were destroyers laughing and adults playing.

Back at the dorm, I'm sure Sister Yorktown has cooked dinner. I wonder if Sister Enterprise has returned from her mission.

But this has long become a memory, even a memory that is about to fade away.

I have traveled around and seen many ports and naval bases, but none of them can compare to my home. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a small headquarters for ship girls.

How could such a large port disappear?

Bumblebee couldn't figure it out.

The commander disappeared, vanished suddenly.

The people at Kancolle headquarters investigated and said that she was dead, but none of the sisters in the port area believed it.

That's right, he is the commander and we are the ship girls. Don't we know whether the commander is okay or not?

How could he leave like this?

But no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find it.

There were many sisters together at the beginning, but some sisters stopped during the journey.

"Shall I stay in this city? Perhaps the Commander will come here when the time comes?"

Having said this, he stayed in a city.

Gradually, only she and Essex were left.

I thought about finding a place to stop, but... I continued walking. What if the Commander is in the next city?

But I can’t find it!

I really can’t find it!

For many years, I traveled to countless cities, coastal areas, inland areas, and even wanted to enter the dangerous sea full of sirens.

But it still didn't work, so I went back to the port area. The former front line has now become a famous retirement area. I even heard that in a few years even the KanColle headquarters will be moved away.

The former port area has also become a deserted park.

There is still no news from the commander.

Essex went to the cenotaph in the morning, but she didn't want to go. What kind of memorial is that? It's just an empty tomb built by the Ship Girls Headquarters. How can it be called a memorial?

But after all these years of searching, can we really find the Commander? How is the Commander doing now?

Bumblebee lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling with complicated thoughts. Then he shook his head and threw all these messy things out of his mind.

"Is it almost time? Why haven't you come back yet?" She looked at her watch. It was almost nine o'clock, and she was still waiting for Essex's breakfast.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Bumblebee was delighted and jumped out of bed. He casually put on a piece of clothing, let his long golden hair fly freely, and ran to the door with his slippers hanging down.

"Who?"

"Me! Essex!"

"Who is Essex? I don't know him. I only know Dumplings."

"...Do you still want to eat?"

"Ah, ah, ah~~~" Bumblebee pushed the door open, grabbed Essex who was about to leave, and said with a smile, "Don't go! I was just joking. Speaking of which, today's meal..."

As she spoke, she looked at Essex's hands with some confusion. What does it mean when they are empty? There is nothing in them.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

"Where's breakfast?"

“I ate it!”

"I'm talking about my breakfast! I'm still hungry!" Bumblebee stared at Essex with wide eyes, "If I'm hungry, then I can only eat your eagle sauce!"

As she spoke, she turned around and looked at the bald eagle standing on the clothesline, preening its feathers. "It's a ship suit after all. It can grow back after being eaten, right?"

The bald eagle froze in its tracks, and looked stupidly at the bumblebee, then at its owner.

No way! Will I die if I skip a meal?

"Go ahead! I don't mind!" Essex smiled indifferently.

The bald eagle's eyes widened in disbelief. "Master, what are you talking about? I'm going to be eaten!"

Bumblebee also looked at Essex with an incredible look, "Don't regret it if I eat you!"

"Go ahead! Do you need my help?"

The bald eagle could no longer stand and spread its wings to escape. What kind of devilish statement is this!

"Really?" Hearing this, Bumblebee was helpless. Eating the bald eagle was just a joke. He originally wanted to tease Essex, but the other party didn't react at all. It was meaningless.

"What's wrong with you today? You're not like this before."

"What's wrong? I feel normal!" Essex said, brushing past the bumblebee and walking straight into the room.

"Hey! Why don't you close the door? Did you really not buy breakfast?" Bumblebee hurried to the door and wanted to close it in a hurry.

But when he reached the door, he was stunned. He saw a man wearing a thin white cotton coat standing there. He looked ordinary, holding something in his hand, and looking at him with a strange smile.

"Hey! Bumblebee! Would you like to have breakfast?" Huang Chen controlled his facial expression and raised the rice noodles in his hand in front of the girl.

“…Commander?” The girl stared at the guy in front of her in amazement, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Although he looks ordinary, that familiar face is impossible to forget.

It’s more like it often appears in dreams.

I often wonder if I'll suddenly meet the Commander again somewhere, perhaps at a roadside corner or on a busy street.

But in any case, I never expected it to be like this, the commander standing at the door with a packed breakfast in his hand.

"I knew it! I knew it! Commander, everything will be fine!" After a while, Bumblebee grinned and reached out to pat Huang Chen's shoulder.

She had just climbed up from the bed and casually put on a piece of clothing. When she moved, a beautiful scenery suddenly appeared in front of Huang Chen's eyes.

Even though there was still underwear on, it was already very exciting.

As a normal and strong man, Huang Chen looked over subconsciously, then felt something was inappropriate and turned his head away.

But I have to say that even with the blonde twintails, Bumblebee is still quite attractive.

"Hey~ Commander! How does it feel?" Although Huang Chen's movements were fast, the girl was always sensitive to the gazes on her body.
