Huang Chen nodded, and the girl pushed open the door.
A breath of warm air suddenly spread out through the gap in the door.
Hua Jia's eyes lit up and he walked in quickly, while Huang Chen and Cheshire followed.
When we walked inside, the auditorium was completely different. There was a large stage on the left side, which was shining and particularly beautiful under the various lanterns, ribbons and spotlights.
Hua Jia couldn't help but stop and said in amazement, "This stage is amazing."
"Okay, we'll hold the event here tomorrow night."
Hua Jia nodded in understanding, then looked towards the left side of the auditorium and continued, "What about this side? What is this huge building over here?"
A white wooden building sits quietly on the left side of the auditorium.
Even during the day, there seemed to be a mist spreading out, making the auditorium much warmer.
Cheshire immediately burst out laughing.
Huang Chen scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "That's the bathhouse."
"So it's a bathhouse... Wait, what is that?" Hua Jia nodded subconsciously, and then was stunned when he realized what it was.
A bathhouse? Built here?
"Tomorrow, will you be exercising while taking a bath? You never mentioned this before..."
She said slowly, her expression looking a little unhappy.
Huang Chen was speechless for a moment, and waved his hand to explain, "Don't let your imagination run wild here. There simply isn't much open space."
"Oh, I see." Hua Jia seemed relieved.
Huang Chen thought about it and continued, "But if you want to do activities while taking a bath, it's not impossible."
"This... let's forget it." Hua Jia shook his head, but the expression on his face seemed to be eager to try?
Cheshire on the side immediately suggested, "Why not give it a try?"
Huang Chen thought about it carefully and shook his head, "Forget it, it's still a bit inconvenient."
"Forget it then." Cheshire seemed a little disappointed.
He came in and chatted for so long that some girls who were busy setting up the stage naturally noticed him.
New Jersey came forward from the back of the stage carrying a large box and greeted happily, "Hua Jia, you're finally here?"
"Ah... who are you?" Hua Jia was stunned and couldn't recognize who this was.
"New Jersey." The girl just smiled and didn't really care.
However, Wichita, who was following behind New Jersey, was a little unhappy when he saw this and said, "No matter what, we still have to remember everyone's names, right?"
"Well, I'll try my best." Hua Jia was stunned. He felt that this guy seemed difficult to deal with, so he could only nod.
Huang Chen could tell at a glance that she had misunderstood the situation and explained, "He's here as a guest."
"what?"
Wichita was stunned for a moment, scratched her head embarrassedly, and muttered softly, "Um, I'm just a guest... Sorry, just pretend you didn't hear what I said just now."
She said loudly, then quickly caught up with New Jersey in front.
Some other girls at the back laughed happily, including Huang Chen and Cheshire.
But he just smiled briefly, then looked at Hua Jia and invited, "Okay, I'll take you to the bedroom first, and then I'll take you to meet everyone?"
Hua Jia blinked, a gleam in her beautiful eyes, and finally nodded, "Then, thank you for your help."
Chapter 1255: Failure to Rescue the Boat
First, arrange the girl to the room agreed upon earlier.
That was next door to Yixian, and then he took her around to meet everyone.
The first ones were naturally Yixian and Harbin, then some girls from Beilian, and then I just walked around the old winery and introduced everyone I saw.
In fact, he had never thought of introducing it this way before.
After all, there are indeed quite a lot of people. Huajia just came here as a guest, and it’s not for any other reason. There is really no need to remember so many people’s names. It is enough to remember Tallinn.
But the girl seemed very happy. She ran a lap with Huang Chen and still looked very energetic.
"Your port area is really huge!"
A whole morning passed, and on the path to the restaurant with the girl, Hua Jia said with his hands behind his back, slightly amazed.
"This is just a small part. More of our companions are in the port area of Area C. There are probably four to five hundred people there." Huang Chen said. He mainly didn't know if anyone had gone back during this period, otherwise he could give an accurate number.
Hua Jia was stunned when he heard this, with a complicated expression on his face. He finally shook his head and sighed softly, "When I heard you say that before, I didn't feel anything. Now after seeing this, I finally understand a little bit."
"Are you scared?" Huang Chen said with some amusement.
Hua Jia just glanced at him speechlessly, then continued, "It's a pity that such a large port area doesn't interest me enough to go and see it. There must be some interesting things in it, right?"
"Why don't you like it? Why don't you just come with me and take a look when the time comes?"
"Can you help me ask for leave?" Hua Jia glanced at him with a disdainful expression.
Huang Chen thought about it, then said seriously, "Although I can't help you apply for leave, I can help you settle your salary."
"What do you mean?"
"So, if you join my harbor, you won't have to worry about all those weird vacations and emails."
He said, then stopped and looked at the girl seriously.
The heavy snow had stopped long ago, but the path was still covered with thick snowflakes, like a little layer of ice. The bushes on the roadside had completely turned into snow sculptures, reflecting the sunlight.
Hua Jia opened his mouth, suddenly chuckled, and asked, "If I refuse, do I have to leave immediately?"
"That's not necessary." Huang Chen scratched his head and then asked, "So what do you think?"
"My idea..." Hua Jia paused, "My idea is, why don't we talk about tomorrow's activities? And don't we have to go to the front line after that? Have you decided when?"
Huang Chen paused, but did not continue asking.
Although the girl did not agree, she did not refuse either, so there is still hope, but the disappointment is also real.
"I haven't made any special preparations for tomorrow's event. You've heard of the "Pass the Flower" game, right?"
"heard about it."
"That's about it. We'll have a dinner in the auditorium tomorrow, and then we'll play pass the parcel to decide who will perform on stage."
"Well... wait, what if I got the flowers?" Hua Jia stopped again, staring at him with his sky-blue eyes.
Huang Chen thought about it and said seriously, "If you get the flowers, then you have to go up."
"You didn't tell me before that I still wanted to perform." Hua Jia gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Give me back all the candies I had before. I'm leaving."
Although she said this, the girl had no intention of leaving. Instead, she continued to follow Huang Chen.
Naturally, he could tell at a glance that the girl was just joking.
He smiled and shook his head, explaining, "You don't need to do anything spectacular. Just sing a song, tell a joke, or do anything else."
"Even if you say that... I don't think anyone will pass me flowers tomorrow, right?"
"You never know. There are still some powerful people in the harbor area. Maybe they picked it out specifically for you."
"Do you still want to invite me to join Minato?"
"Well...even if you say so, I can't control what other girls do."
"Just don't tell me when the time comes." Hua Jia said so, then changed the subject, "What about the situation at the front line?"
"As for the front line, let's see what the situation is like."
Huang Chen said this, his expression becoming serious. "If there's nothing strange happening on the front line, it will probably be in a week."
"Why did you wait so long?"
"It's not that long. It's good enough that we don't have to wait until after the Lantern Festival." Huang Chen said seriously.
Hua Jia was speechless, and then asked, "What if there are special circumstances?"
"Then I can only work overtime." Huang Chen spread his hands, looking quite helpless.
Hua Jia couldn't help but smile at his antics, but soon fell silent. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I'm actually a little curious why you want to meet the Clearer... Of course, if it's a secret, forget it."
"It's indeed a secret." Huang Chen nodded, and then continued, "Even if all this is put aside, as a commander, as a ship girl, don't you want to see the ultimate power of the Siren with your own eyes?"
Hua Jia didn't say anything, seeming to be thinking.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria. They pushed open the heavy door, and then a mouth-watering smell spread over them.
The bustling sounds made people think they had come to a busy vegetable market.
Huang Chen also put aside all the strange thoughts in his mind and looked at the girl beside him and invited her, "Let's go. Whether we go to the front line or see the Clearers or not, we still need to eat, right?"
Hua Jia was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "That's true."
Time passed quickly, especially when I had nothing to do. I made some final preparations in the afternoon, which were probably some window decorations and Spring Festival couplets.
Huang Chen had almost forgotten all this before, and it was only after Yixian reminded him that he remembered it.
Of course, Rhodes does not belong to the Donghuang area. Even though it is New Year, there are different customs and styles. There is no place to buy Spring Festival couplets in the commercial streets outside or in the KanColle headquarters.
Although the previous stage performance was lively, it actually looked like just an ordinary event.
However, after hanging big red lanterns under the eaves and pasting Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the gate, a familiar feeling finally emerged in Huang Chen's heart.
The time came the next day.
The weather had been very good since early in the morning, with bright sunshine and no snow. Then the sky changed and the stars moved, and the night sky was like sand, gently falling on the courtyard of the old winery, making the lights in the auditorium appear even brighter.
Chapter 1256 Party
The auditorium was exceptionally bright, not only because of the large lamp in the middle, but also because of the many candlesticks and lanterns on the walls on both sides.
The red and yellow halos intertwined with each other, making the hall, which was still filled with mist, appear exceptionally bright.
Several long tables were placed in the middle of the open space, covered with red tablecloths, silver tableware, and all kinds of mouth-watering delicacies, with bright red wine shaking in the glasses.
All the girls were wearing gorgeous clothes and sitting around the long table, but their eyes were fixed on the long table in the middle and on the commander.
Huang Chen stood up, reached out and tugged at his bow tie, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
He actually didn't plan to wear something so formal, but Qiye refused to agree no matter what. He and Yixian and the others had even prepared an evening dress and helped him change into it bit by bit.
He was wearing a white suit that looked somewhat similar to the commander's uniform, but it made him look more capable and energetic, and also had an elegant temperament.
He picked up the phone, coughed a few times, and then smiled and said, "Can everyone hear me?"
"I can hear it—" some of the little guys immediately answered in a long voice.
"Then I won't say anything more. Happy New Year everyone. I wish you all happiness and joy every day in the new year..."
Huang Chen smiled, raised the glass of red wine, and tilted it high upwards.
"Happy New Year!"
Cheers also sounded in the auditorium. Not only the little ones, but everyone stood up, holding up their wine glasses or tea cups with bright smiles on their faces.
"Very good, New Jersey will take care of the rest."
Huang Chen smiled, said nothing more, and sat back in his chair.
On the stage not far away, the spotlight suddenly lit up and fell directly on the center, illuminating a figure in a white gauze dress.
"Hello everyone, I am tonight's host. Without further ado, let's get started with tonight's activities."
New Jersey blinked, and without any hesitation, threw a big red pompom to the crowd below. At the same time, the sound of intense drums suddenly rang out from the speakers not far away.
Shensu was the first little one to catch the pompom. She cheered in surprise and then threw it to Hongliang who was not far away.
Hongliang opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at the ball of pompom in his hand for a long time before he reacted and handed it to Weiyan beside him. Weiyan passed it to Minsk, and Minsk passed it to Chapayev.
Then Chapayev held it in his hand motionless, just looking at Huang Chen not far away and said with a smile, "Commander, do you want to perform a show?"
"Wait, it's just the beginning, can you please stop messing with me?"
Huang Chen said so, but Chapayev didn't seem to want to listen to his advice. He threw his little hand and the red ball of fluff fell straight towards him.
