Elder brother's garrison

Page 1813

"My mom gets really bored at home. Could you keep her company for me before I go back?" Xiaobai suggested.

"Oh! I understand! This is an order, right?"

"It's a suggestion." Xiaobai paused for a moment, then continued, "Oh, by the way, Enterprise, you didn't encounter any problems on the road during those three weeks, did you?"

"What is it?"

"For example, what if you encounter a bad person who is after your looks?"

"Hahaha, what are you saying, Admiral? I've met such wonderful people along the way!" Enterprise laughed happily on the other end. "For example, when I just left Cloud City, I was walking along the roadside when suddenly a black car drove up and, without saying a word, pushed me into the car and took me for a very, very long way!"

"Uh." Xiaobai felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this. "Then... what happened next?"

"And then? Hmm... let me think... then... I was driving fine, and suddenly the accelerator failed, and the whole car crashed into the nearby police station." The company's voice was filled with regret as it said this. "Sigh... when I got out of the car, I wanted to apologize to the people there, but for some reason, the police officers at the station not only didn't blame me, they all applauded me, saying I was brave and resourceful. After they took those kind-hearted people away, they even gave me a bonus and a medal. It was thanks to the bonus that I had money to buy food along the way, so I didn't go hungry."

Chapter 2499 Little White Returns Home

"Wow, that's amazing..." Xiaobai couldn't help but smile wryly as he listened to the company's voice on the phone.

"Yes, but I spent all the money the police gave me on the way here. By the time I got to your hometown, Admiral, I had no money left." Enterprise's tone suddenly brightened as she said this on the other end of the phone. "Just when I was thinking about whether to go to a nearby restaurant for a free eating contest, I ran into your mother! Wow! It's really fate!"

“…That makes sense…” Xiaobai held her phone and gave an awkward laugh into the call.

The company continued to tell Xiaobai about its experiences along the way on the phone. After the company finished telling its story with satisfaction, the phone switched to Xiaobai's mother amidst a series of crackling sounds.

"Little White, this girl is actually your ship girl?" White's mother's voice was filled with joyful laughter. "No wonder she's so pretty. I remember the little girl you brought home last time looked a lot like her. I think her name was Saratoga?"

“They all have blonde hair,” Xiaobai replied with a smile. “I’ll take Saratoga home again after the New Year.”

"Great! I'll go with Lao Bai to prepare the ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner in the meantime." Bai's mother sounded particularly excited on the other end of the phone.

Xiao Bai and her mother chatted for a few more minutes before saying goodbye, satisfied, and finally hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Bai at the dining table let out a long sigh of relief, glanced at the caller ID on his phone screen, and seemed to be deep in thought.

"Admiral, from what you just said, Enterprise has moved to your hometown?" The ship girls next to him asked as soon as Xiaobai finished his call.

“Yes…” Xiaobai smiled wryly.

"Good heavens, no wonder I haven't been able to find her all this time!" Yorktown was furious upon hearing this, her fists clenched and her eyes flashing red. "That brat, I'll definitely give her a good beating when I see her next time!"

"Sister, calm down, sister, calm down!" Bumblebee quickly hugged Yorktown.

"Bumblebee, don't stop me!" Yorktown bared its teeth and brandished its claws.

Sitting in her seat, Xiaobai smiled at Yorktown and Bumblebee. She looked down at her phone screen for a while, then opened a web browser and tried entering the terms "human traffickers" and "police station" into the search bar.

The results came out very quickly.

Xiao Bai browsed through the search results and, sure enough, found a webpage from three weeks ago titled "Trafficking gang in XX city brought to justice; trafficked girl calmly and skillfully dealt with the situation."

Xiaobai clicked on the webpage.

The first thing you see on the webpage is a photo of a company employee holding a medal, standing in front of a police station with a group of police officers in uniform.

The woman in the photo is smiling happily at the camera, and the police officers around her are all giving a thumbs up, looking kind and reliable.

"I guess... I underestimated the company's luck..." Xiaobai sighed into his phone.

Xiao Bai turned off her phone and then noticed that Chang Chun, who had been sitting next to her, was now holding a mug and sipping it slowly, while her big eyes were watching her cautiously.

"Changchun, what's wrong?"

"Ah, no, no..." Changchun quickly put down the mug and smiled shyly at Xiaobai.

"Just say what's on your mind."

"...Um...I, I'm just a little curious, what is the Admiral's hometown like..." Changchun scratched his hair shyly by his ear, his eyes darting shyly from side to side, before speaking to Xiaobai.

"It's just a very ordinary small city," Xiaobai smiled at Changchun. "But the environment there is very relaxed, and I like it very much."

"Oh……"

"You'll see them soon too."

"Huh? Can I go too!"

“Of course, the reason I called you all over from the garrison headquarters was for this very thing,” Xiaobai said to Changchun.

"Ah... thank you, Admiral!" Changchun covered her mouth, her eyes sparkling like starlight as Xiaobai spoke. She nodded happily and gave Xiaobai a satisfied smile.

"It's just going home, it's nothing big."

As Xiaobai finished speaking, his gaze swept across the dining table in front of him, and over the ship girls and abyssal deans who were all looking at him expectantly. Although they didn't say anything, they seemed to be clearly expressing their meaning.

"Everyone go, everyone go!" Xiaobai said to the ship girls and deep-sea deans in front of her. "No one should be left out!"

"Wow!!!"

"great!!"

"Now we can visit the Admiral's house!"

"Thank you, Admiral!"

"..."

The ship girls erupted in cheers.

The villa's hall was instantly filled with the voices of girls.

……

Time is like a fleeting moment.

Another week has passed by in the blink of an eye.

The atmosphere on the streets of Yuncheng gradually became festive and lively. On the televisions of every household, the programs had unknowingly turned into New Year's greetings advertisements from various manufacturers. Male and female celebrities appeared in all kinds of programs as if they were free, dressed in red clothes, red skirts and red hats, smiling and clasping their hands to wish people on the other side of the screen a happy new year.

The season of falling snow has arrived, bringing with it the peak of the Lunar New Year celebrations.

New Year's Eve.

The travelers returned to their hometowns from all over the world, carrying the harvest of the year and eager hearts, returning to the place where they were born and raised.

In a carefree small city hundreds of miles away from Cloud City.

Outside the train station, the crowd surged like a tidal wave.

The densely packed crowds, carrying heavy luggage, branched out into hundreds of tiny streams, quickly merging into the street and turning the otherwise empty street into a bustling hub of activity.

This is the busiest and most crowded time of the year.

A black-haired girl led a group of girls through the congested crowd.

"Is this what they call the Spring Festival travel rush...? Wow, there are just too many people..." Amidst the crowd, Roma stared at the seemingly endless sea of ​​people and clicked his tongue in amazement. "I feel like I've seen more people today than I've ever seen in my entire life..."

"The number of humans far exceeds our imagination, Roman senior," Missouri said to Rome with a smile.

"Missouri, you used to live in human society, right? Are there this many people at this time of year?"

“Yes, but this is Missouri’s first time experiencing the Spring Festival travel rush.” Missouri nodded with a smile. “In the past, Missouri would stay at home during this time and never go out to take the train or plane.”

Chapter 2500 Mother White

“It’s a kind of ritual, Rome,” Veneto’s voice came from beneath Rome. “Today is a day for family reunions, a day for human celebrations. Just bear with it.”

Rome looked down.

The surging crowd had completely engulfed Veneto's presence. Had Veneto not calmly spoken just moments before, Rome would have thought he had been swept away by the crowd.

Xiaobai and her ship girls are like a small boat, sailing against the wind and waves on the vast sea called the sea of ​​people.

After walking for about half an hour, Xiaobai, the ship girl, and the Dean of the Deep Sea turned through countless bends and the flow of people around them was diluted by the numerous streets before it finally returned to normal.

"Wow! We're saved..." Roma bent down with a sigh of relief and hugged Veneto. "Big sister, the Spring Festival travel rush is terrifying..."

"What are you afraid of? You'll have to squeeze through the crowds again when you go back to Yuncheng after the New Year." Veneto let Roma hug him tightly, his expression extremely calm.

"What?! We have to go through another crowded ride on the way back?! No way—"

"In a sense, the fact that someone from the company went to the admiral's hometown in advance can be considered as using good luck to avoid this situation..." Hearing this, the ship girls couldn't help but envy the company's situation, despite their helplessness.

At the front of the line, Xiaobai looked back at the crowd behind him and couldn't help but smile.

"My lord, would you like some water?" Akagi Shinkai smiled and handed over a bottle of mineral water.

"Oh, thank you." Xiaobai took the water offered by Shenhai Akagi, then looked at Shenhai Akagi's smiling face and asked, "Shenhai Akagi, are you feeling alright?"

“Yes, very good.” Akagi Fukami nodded with a smile. “It seems that there are so many people going home that the crowds along the way have no time to pay attention to their surroundings. Even someone like me with a constitution can move around relatively freely.”

"That's great." Xiaobai nodded, unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip of water, and then looked to her side.

Beside Xiaobai, Lexington and Luming were looking down at the map with great interest.

Lu Ming isn't Xiao Bai's ship girl, so strictly speaking, she doesn't need to accompany Xiao Bai home. However, Xiao Bai is taking the ship girls and the Abyssal Deans home for the New Year, and they can't leave Lu Ming alone in the villa in Yun City. Therefore, before leaving, Xiao Bai specifically asked Lu Ming for her opinion, asking if she would like to go home with her for the New Year. If she didn't want to, Xiao Bai would respect her wishes and send her home to rest for a while. Xiao Bai thought her idea would put Lu Ming in a difficult position, but to her surprise, Lu Ming agreed very readily after hearing Xiao Bai's suggestion.

"Miss Luming, I'm sorry... I made you come with us." Xiaobai said to Luming apologetically, "If you had stayed in Yuncheng, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this."

"No." Upon hearing Xiaobai's words, Luming gently shook her head, put down the map in her hand, and smiled slightly at Xiaobai. "I like more people, and... Sister Mutsu is here too."

"It seems Miss Lu Ming enjoys a lively atmosphere." Lexington closed the map and smiled at Lu Ming.

"What about Lexington?" Xiaobai asked.

"Me? I can accept both liveliness and quiet." Lexington nodded and smiled at Xiaobai. "This Spring Festival travel rush was a very special experience for me. Well, I can't say I particularly liked it, but it definitely made me feel alive."

"Hehe." Xiaobai smiled at Lexington.

"Speaking of which, why did you put on makeup to look like you have black hair, Admiral? And you even cut your beautiful long hair short again." York looked at Xiaobai curiously from the side. "It seems like no one notices us during the Spring Festival travel rush, right? Look at Miss Shikamaru and Akagi Akagi, no one noticed them along the way."

"Ah...you mean this?" Xiaobai touched the ends of her black hair by her ear and pursed her lips at York. "Because when I first became the admiral, I had this hairstyle...well...although my dad and mom know that I now have white hair and golden eyes, I feel that if I go home for the New Year, I'll make them happier with this look."

"Eh... Do the Admiral's parents know that the Admiral has ship equipment?"

"I don't know," Xiaobai shook her head.

"So how did they accept your new look, Admiral?"

"Hmm... I told them it was because of the Admiral's job requirements..." Xiaobai thought for a while, looked at the sky, "Mom was indeed a little surprised when she first saw me... but surprisingly she accepted it very quickly, huh?"

"Parents with such a strong ability to accept new ideas!" York exclaimed in surprise.

"There's nothing we can do about it," Xiaobai said with a smile.

Xiaobai is chatting with the ship girls.

Suddenly, a voice called out from across the street.

"noob----"

It was a rather gentle and melodious mature woman's voice. Upon hearing this voice, Xiaobai, who was chatting and laughing with the ship girls, suddenly froze and turned her head to look at the source of the sound.

Across the street, a mature woman dressed in blue, with a slender figure and a beautiful face, was waving in their direction, her face full of gentle smiles.

Beside the woman, the company representative held up a sign that read "Lu Lin" and excitedly accompanied her as she ran over.

"Huh?? Mom!" Little White exclaimed in surprise.

"Xiaobai, I've finally found you! Let Mommy give you a kiss!" The woman walking towards the group was Xiaobai's mother. She brought her company along and, while Xiaobai and the others were still stunned, she ran up to them, then happily hugged Xiaobai tightly, pressing her against her ample bosom. She showered Xiaobai's fair forehead with kisses, her face full of doting smiles. "Mommy has missed you so much these past year! My good daughter, my sweet daughter, hehehe, hehehe..."

Xiao Bai's mother has a similar appearance to Xiao Bai, with red lips, white teeth, and a graceful figure. In terms of appearance, she is a rare quiet beauty among humans.

However, compared to her quiet appearance and temperament, Xiaobai's mother has an unexpectedly cheerful personality, giving off the feeling of a vibrant young girl.

The ship girls behind Xiaobai stared wide-eyed at the shocking scene of the woman in blue tightly embracing Xiaobai, her chest completely submerging Xiaobai's head.

"...Sa, Saratoga." A ship girl poked Saratoga in the back and asked her cautiously, "Is this pretty older sister our admiral's mother?"

“Yes.” Saratoga blinked and nodded.

“…Huh? But, but…”

The ship girls all turned their surprised gazes to White Mother's full breasts, their eyes widening in astonishment.

While White Mom's size isn't exactly unparalleled in the Kantai Collection world, it's still quite enormous, easily qualifying as a giant in the human world.

This...this is actually the Admiral's mother!

Xiaobai rarely shows the ship girls pictures of Bai's mother, so many ship girls who have never seen Bai's mother have more or less imagined what she looks like. In their default settings, a mother who can give birth to a girl as cute as their admiral must be a flat woman with excellent upbringing, extremely beautiful appearance, extremely unique temperament, and gentle and charming personality.

But it wasn't until they actually saw Mother White that they realized how wrong they had been.

The admiral's mother is actually a woman with a super standard older sister figure!

"Oh dear?" After doting on Xiaobai for a while, Mama Bai slowly turned her gentle gaze to the ship girls behind her. Looking at the group of ship girls staring at her with wide eyes as if they had seen a ghost, she couldn't help but smile again. "Xiaobai, are these cute girls your ship girls?"

"Yes!" Xiao Bai's voice came from Bai's mother's chest.
