The two ship girls clung tightly to Mu Chenglin's arm, pouting as they vied for his attention.
Admiral Haoding silently observed Mu Chenglin and the two ship girls beside him who were behaving too intimately. After pondering for a while, he asked in confusion.
"Brother Mu, who are these two ship girls...?"
"Ahem... This is a long story..."
Mu Chenglin looked embarrassed, but quickly composed himself, glanced at the ship girls on either side with a touch of emotion, and then slowly said to Admiral Haoding, "These two are now my marriage ships..."
"Oh! So you're my sister-in-law! I knew it!" Admiral Haoding cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, mimicking Mu Chenglin's earlier gesture, and exclaimed in surprise, "Greetings, my two sisters-in-law! When did this happen?"
"A few nights ago..."
"night??"
"Ah~ I have to thank Cupid for this."
The two ship girls touched their cheeks shyly as they spoke, exchanged a glance, and began to giggle.
"Cupid?"

at the same time
"Achoo!" Little White couldn't help but sneeze loudly as she walked home.
Chapter 2132 Food Delivery
Xiao Bai had actually given serious thought to whether or not to share a large amount of information from Chapter 8 with Admiral Hao Ding.
After all, ever since Xiaobai went undercover in the deep-sea city, she has rarely appeared on the shore in Chapter 8. If she only disappeared for a day or two, it wouldn't be a problem, as the ship girls in the newbie naval base could cover for her. But as time goes on, things can't be kept secret forever. After all, it's hard for the other ship girls not to notice when someone of that age disappears so often. This is why recently, in the base, especially among the ship girls of Admiral Haoding and the fleet brought by the Mu family, rumors have gradually started to circulate that Xiaobai is leading a secret fleet out to fight.
Admittedly, this rumor wasn't entirely baseless, and it was actually half right. So when Xiaobai learned about the situation, he thought that since you guys had already come up with a reason for him, he might as well go along with it and give Admiral Haoding all the information from Chapter 8 to confirm their previous thoughts about him, so that the rumor wouldn't continue to spread and maybe the next step would be him soloing the Chapter 8 sea area.
Whether or not the information is handed over is not important; the main thing is that it's much better than telling them that you went to be an undercover agent in the deep sea.
Of course.
To avoid scaring Admiral Haoding to death, Xiaobai still didn't tell him about the Deep Sea City. On the map Xiaobai gave to Admiral Haoding, the location of the Deep Sea City was covered by a thick black fog, with only the words "Deep Sea Base Camp" marked on it.
When they returned to the villa from Admiral Haoding and Mu Chenglin's place, Akagi's seafood curry soup had just been cooked. Seeing that the ship girls were too kind to refuse, Xiaobai and Chao Yahe decided to have dinner with them after a long time. After dinner, Xiaobai packed several servings of curry rice for Luo Lian and the others who were thousands of miles away. Only then did they bid farewell to the reluctant ship girls and leave Chapter 8 through the portal with Chao Yahe.
No sooner had Xiaobai left Chapter 8 than news of her deeds spread throughout the ship girl base once again.
The ship girls of Admiral Haoding and the ship girls of the Mu family fleet spread the news with great excitement. They were all blushing and cheering, spreading the news that Xiaobai had obtained the complete sea map of Chapter 8. For a time, the entire base was filled with admiration for Xiaobai. Ship girls who wanted to visit her and take the opportunity to admire her face lined up in circles at the entrance of the villa, making the villa of the newbie naval base completely crowded.
Upon learning of this, Akagi, carrying a ladle, walked out of the kitchen and looked at the sea of people in front of the door, feeling a headache coming on.
It was clearly the admiral's achievement...
Why is it that the ship girls in the newbie naval base are the last to find out?
The currents of boats surged and roared.
"Hello! Hello, are you Akagi-neechan from the newbie naval base?"
"I...I...I'm a ship girl who recently joined your Admiral Haoding's team. I heard about the acting admiral! I admire her so much! Could I meet her...?"
"Akagi-neechan, I... I've admired your admiral for a very, very long time!"
"Me too! Me too!"
"..."
The crowd was bustling, and the colorful hair of the ship girls was dazzling, like a sea of flowers.
Facing the ship girls in front of her, Akagi said nothing, but swung the large ladle in her hand around hard, then pursed her lips and ran into the kitchen.
Anyway, guests are guests, so let's first let these ship girls who came here because of its reputation try the curry rice from the newbie naval base.
--you
After passing through the portal to Super Yamato, Shiro and Super Yamato returned to the rookie naval base.
The sun sank slowly into the sea, its evening glow fading, and darkness spread across the sky like ink. As night approached, the streetlights came on one by one, illuminating the far, far reaches of the earth.
It had only been a short time since we had a simple meal in Chapter Eight, and it was already dark. Time was running out.
Shiro and Yamato arrived at the Yubari Factory carrying the takeout containers they brought back from Chapter 8.
After the Missouri renovation project was completed, the Yubari factory should have closed down. However, something must have happened in Yubari. When Xiaobai arrived, the Yubari factory was still brightly lit, and Luo Lian and Yan Zhan could be clearly seen.
Luo Lian and Yan Zhan were sitting on the chairs that had been placed at the factory entrance when they discussed the Missouri renovation plan. Luo Lian was reading something with great interest, while Yan Zhan was lying on the table, fiddling with his phone listlessly.
"Lianlian!" Xiaobai called out and waved to Luo Lian.
"Xiao Bai." Luo Lian responded, closing her book and looking up in Xiao Bai's direction.
"Lianlian, I'm back!" Xiaobai hurried over with a lunchbox, greeting Luo Lian and Yanzhan. "How are you? Have you had dinner? I brought back some food from Chapter Eight, would you like to try some?"
Warspite looked at the lunchbox in Xiaobai's hand, somewhat surprised: "Huh? Chapter Eight brought food here? Uh... are the supplies over there plentiful?"
"The supplies over there... the seafood is quite plentiful." Xiaobai said, taking out the lunchboxes one by one and placing them in front of Yanzhan and Luo Lian. "Here, if you don't mind, you can try the seafood from Chapter Eight."
"Okay, thank you, Xiaobai." Luo Lian picked up the lunchbox and smiled at Xiaobai. "We haven't had dinner yet. You came just in time."
Across from Luo Lian, Warspite looked at the lunchbox pushed in front of her with a suspicious expression: "Thank you... Admiral Lu... Um, takeout brought back from the battlefield... This is the first time I've ever eaten this."
Chapter 2133: What can I bring back to eat?
Admiral Lu Lin said it was seafood...
War-weary can't imagine what kind of seafood might be found in the deep sea.
Could it be wild vegetables, tree roots, and stir-fried loach?
War-weary shuddered at the thought.
Admittedly, Warspite felt he had suffered quite a bit over the years and was no longer the delicate person he used to be. If resources were truly scarce, he could easily force himself to eat wild vegetables, tree roots, and loach, but now that he was the world's number one admiral, and the canteen next door was still open, wasn't it a bit... a bit...
Warspite swallowed hard, momentarily hesitant to open the lunchbox, and instead glanced up at Luo Lian.
Luo Lian didn't open the lunchbox, but it wasn't because she was war-weary. Instead, she looked at the lunchbox in her hand as if it were a treasure, her fingers constantly stroking the metal exterior, as if she was reluctant to eat it.
It’s over.
Look at your own admiral's performance.
If I don't eat the food that Admiral Lu brought, I might get into trouble.
Ugh……
Thinking about this, War-weary became more Zen-like. She said that she could eat tree roots and wild vegetables, and then opened her lunchbox.
laugh--
A plume of hot steam rose from the lunchbox, enveloping Warspite's face, followed by a delicious aroma that wafted into his nose.
"Ah...it smells so good." Warspite waved away the steam from his face and looked down at the lunchbox.
The lunchbox contained glistening rice, a thick and fragrant curry sauce, and a dazzling array of scallops, abalone, prawns, and fish clinging to the curry sauce. There were even a few thick, long crab legs lying across the lunchbox, with plump crab meat visible through the pink shell.
"...Huh? What is this?" Warspite was bewildered.
"Hmm? Oh, this is a crab," Little White replied.
"Crabs...are they really this big?"
"Akagi and the others said it's called Emperor Crab."
"Wh...what!" Warspite exclaimed in shock.
"It's a pity that the biggest one we caught a while ago was eaten, otherwise it would have been twice as big," Little White said to Warspite with a smile. "Hurry up and have a taste."
"Then...then I thank Admiral Lu..." Warspite quickly put down his lunchbox, solemnly shook hands with him in front of his chest, quickly offered a prayer of thanks, then picked up a crab leg and stuffed it into his mouth, "Mmm—"
The joy of having your mouth stuffed full of crab meat is something that those who haven't experienced it simply cannot understand.
That's so awesome!
War-weariness and emotion.
I never imagined that the most delicious crab I'd ever eaten in my life would be a takeout order brought back from the front lines... How good the soldiers in Chapter Eight must have been eating!
"Delicious, so delicious!" Warspite exclaimed with tears in his eyes. "This crab is so good, and this curry is so good too."
While Zhan Yan was engrossed in his lunchbox, Luo Lian finally opened his lunchbox with reluctance and scooped a spoonful of curry rice into his mouth.
"Is it delicious?" Xiaobai asked.
"Mmm, it's so delicious I could die," Luo Lian replied sincerely.
"That won't do, Lianlian, you have to stay alive." Xiaobai said, resting her chin on her hand and watching Luo Lian eat her takeout bite by bite with a big smile. "This tastes better than the cafeteria food, right?"
"Ah."
"It was made by Akagi. She's a great cook."
Xiao Bai watched as Luo Lian finished her boxed lunch, not leaving a single grain of rice.
“There’s no need to be so formal.” Xiao Bai chuckled at Luo Lian’s teasing, then looked around the factory and asked, “Speaking of which, where are Yubari and Nagaharu?”
"Changchun went back to the dormitory after helping us clean up the factory. As for Yubari..." Luo Lian hesitated for a moment, then paused, "Since the Missouri renovation ended a couple of days ago, she has been locking herself in the laboratory and hasn't come out. She said she wants to focus on organizing the existing data and asked us not to disturb her."
"I see... It's a pity, I also prepared portions for Changchun and Yubari." Xiaobai sighed, "Then these two boxed lunches..."
"I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it!" Warspite raised his hand.
Chapter 2134 The Secret of Frederick the Great
"It's alright, I'll take Yubari's portion in for you later, and you can take Changchun's portion back with you." Luo Lian said before Xiao Bai could reply.
"Oh..." Warspite's raised hand fell limply, his regret evident in his expression.
"Alright then." Xiaobai looked at Warspite and smiled slightly, then said to Luo Lian, "I'll leave the Yubari portion to you... But it's so late, Changchun should have already had dinner, so let's leave Changchun's portion here as a midnight snack."
After saying that, Xiaobai pushed the lunchbox to Warspite.
War-weary eyes lit up again, and she quickly looked at Luo Lian.
"I'm already full," Luo Lian said to Warspite. "You can eat."
"Yay!" Warspite quickly picked up the lunchbox, looking very happy.
"Xiao Bai, you still have something to ask me this time, right?" Luo Lian smiled as she looked at Xiao Bai.
"Ah, we've been discovered?"
"You were staring at me the whole time while we were eating. Were you waiting until I finished before you said anything?"
"Hahaha..." Xiaobai scratched his head sheepishly, then nodded, "Mm."
"What is it?"
"It's about runic script," Xiaobai said to Luo Lian. "It's the one we talked about before, about the runic script in the deep-sea city—do you have a pen and paper?"
"Yes." Luo Lian skillfully handed over a sharpened pencil and several sheets of white paper. "You saw the runic script in the deep-sea city?"
"Yes, I've memorized them all."
"Oh?" Luo Lian's eyes lit up. "The runic script of the deep-sea city? Is it the same as our system?"
"The difference is small... but as you know, I haven't learned it well enough, so I don't understand what it means. Anyway, I'll copy it down first. Lianlian, wait a moment." Xiaobai said, picking up a pencil and starting to write on the paper.
Luo Lian approached Xiao Bai and looked at the paper.
“It’s a string…and it’s very concise,” Luo Lian said.
"It really is a string." Xiao Bai asked Luo Lian while writing it down from memory, "What does 'conciseness' mean?"
“The rune string doesn’t have to be written in its entirety to be effective. Sometimes, even just writing a few key strokes can produce the same effect…” Luo Lian said, pausing for a moment before giving Xiao Bai an example. “You might not understand this, so let me put it in a way that’s easier to understand… You know the term ‘eternal god,’ right?”
"I know."
"Where's yyds?"
"Uh... the eternal God?"
“Right.” Luo Lian smiled. “Next example, if I asked you to describe something as having a very high value in a paragraph, like, ‘Great, absolutely wonderful,’ and your praise is practically bursting out, how would you say it?”
"Let me think... Then I'll say this thing is amazing, incredible... It's a rare find, and encountering it is the greatest honor for both of us..."
"Actually, this passage can be summarized in just three words."
"Huh? Which three?"
"Absolutely Perfect Child".
