Although it would only take a few words for Xiaobai to see them, he still felt somewhat lost.
"Nia, Lianlian, you two have to hurry up and get into the top 100..." Xiaobai rubbed his hands together in front of the empty floor, praying with utmost sincerity, "At least... it would be best if you got into the top 100 and came back to me before I couldn't help but look for you..."
...…)
Xiao Bai left the food warehouse alone, carrying an air of loneliness, and returned to the dormitory building by herself.
It was afternoon, well before dinner time at the temporary garrison. Xiaobai stood in front of his dormitory looking at the sky, which was bright and clear.
I opened the dormitory door.
Xiao Bai entered the dormitory.
Unlike outside, Xiaobai's dormitory was dark because the curtains were drawn tightly shut, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.
The dormitory was quiet.
The air was filled with an irresistible fragrance.
Xiao Bai subconsciously closed its eyes and sniffed.
Deep Sea Akagi's natural body scent is a very fresh and elegant, yet quite rich, osmanthus fragrance. This is not Deep Sea Akagi's "ship equipment ability," but simply a phenomenon caused by her unique physique. To some extent, this rich fragrance is Deep Sea Akagi's best identity card.
However, what intrigued Xiaobai was that... after what happened last night, she noticed that the scent on Deep Sea Akagi seemed to have changed.
The fragrance emanating from Akagi in the deep sea was like that of fresh and intense osmanthus, bright, charming, and refreshing.
But after one night, a faint hint of wine aroma appeared in the fragrance.
Chapter 2879 A Buzz
Xiao Bai rarely drinks alcohol.
I really drink very little.
Even so, Xiaobai still has a relatively clear understanding of the aroma of alcohol.
Xiao Bai closed the door behind her back, as if verifying something, and fanned the air in her face while taking a few serious breaths.
Ok.
The osmanthus fragrance on Akagi's body... did indeed have a faint hint of wine aroma.
This subtle aroma is deeply hidden, yet it significantly alters the overall scent of Deep Sea Akagi, acting as a catalyst. This aroma not only adds layers of complexity to the flavor of Deep Sea Akagi but also enhances its richness and elegant aftertaste.
—What kind of physical change is this?
When Xiaobai realized this, he smiled helplessly.
Xiaobai racked his brains but still couldn't find a reasonable scientific explanation for the changes in Akagi's body odor. However, Akagi's original body odor was difficult to explain scientifically. So, after thinking about it for a while without success, Xiaobai wisely gave up on exploring the problem further.
There are some problems...
If it's good, there's no need to delve too deeply into the reasons.
Xiao Bai's "Buddhist" attitude has increased.
Little White tiptoed to the bedside and leaned down to look at the bed.
Like a princess from an Eastern kingdom, Akagi of the Deep Sea, with her snow-white body wrapped in a gown-like quilt, curled up slightly, sleeping soundly and contentedly by the bedside. Her long, neat, jet-black hair was draped over her fair and translucent skin, rising and falling with the curves of her body, making her exceptionally eye-catching.
Xiaobai lowered his head and sniffed the exposed body of Deep Sea Akagi.
……
It smells so good.
Xiaobai rubbed his nose, looking at Akagi Fukami on the bed with some emotion.
How could Akagi smell so good... She already smelled good before, but ever since this wine scent appeared, her pleasantness level has jumped several notches.
As Xiaobai was thinking, perhaps disturbed by the faint breathing, or perhaps sensing Xiaobai's approach, Akagi Fukami, wrapped in the blankets, let out a soft hum. Then, her breathing became slightly heavier, her long eyelashes trembled twice, and she slowly opened them.
"...Hmm...?" Akagi lazily shifted her body, turning towards Shiro, rubbing one eye lightly. Her gaze was initially vacant, but upon seeing Shiro, she quickly gave him a faint smile. "...Master...you're back..."
Akagi's voice was exceptionally gentle.
Delicate and frail.
She evokes a strong urge to protect her.
"Um... I'm sorry, I think I woke you up..." Xiaobai nodded to Shenhai Akagi, then said somewhat apologetically.
“My lord…” Akagi rubbed her eyes a couple of times, then lowered her arms, hugged her pillow and lay on the bed, showing a sweet smile to Shiro, “…It’s alright…I still prefer the feeling of seeing you as soon as I open my eyes.”
"Akagi, you look very tired." Shiro asked with some concern, staring into Akagi's eyes.
"I am not tired."
"No way, you've slept all day, and you still look like you really need to rest." Xiaobai blushed deeply, and as if remembering something, she immediately lowered her head, looking at Shenhai Akagi with a guilty expression, her voice low and shy, "Shenhai Akagi, I'm...I'm sorry..."
Xiao Bai sincerely apologized.
But the next second, a hand wearing a vow ring on one finger appeared in Xiaobai's field of vision.
The hand, carrying the rich fragrance of osmanthus, gently stroked Xiaobai's cheek and lifted Xiaobai's lowered head slightly.
Xiao Bai subconsciously reached out and cupped the hand on her face.
Akagi's hand also reached out and grasped Shiro's fingers at the opportune moment.
“My lord…it is…it is I who should apologize.” Akagi gazed at Shiro, holding Shiro’s hand in hers, her eyes filled with tenderness, her voice like a whisper, “…If only I still had my Abyssal ship equipment…This is the first time since I became human that I have so longed to regain my Abyssal physique.”
"Uh... well, it doesn't necessarily have to be number one..." Xiaobai blushed immediately.
The next instant, just as Xiaobai was explaining with a flushed face, Shenhai Chicheng gently pulled Xiaobai onto the bed.
Xiaobai was afraid that her resistance would hurt the already exhausted Deep Sea Akagi, so she obediently got into bed and lay on top of Deep Sea Akagi.
Deep Sea Akagi hugged Little White.
"...My lord...I've rested well."
Deep Sea Akagi whispered in Xiaobai's ear.
The voice trembled like a thin thread.
The air was filled with a fragrance.
"My lord... come."
Xiao Bai didn't know what was wrong with her head. Smelling the aroma of alcohol in the air, she gradually felt her head becoming sluggish, with a buzzing, hazy feeling.
……
That afternoon.
Xiao Bai did not go to the cafeteria for dinner.
Although the ship girls at the temporary naval base didn't see Shiro, they knew that Shiro's daily routine was exceptionally regular. For example, she was always very punctual for meals unless there was something urgent to do. Therefore, even though they didn't see Shiro at the cafeteria, the ship girls didn't ask her where she was. They simply assumed that Shiro had probably gone out to eat with some pretty lady.
The time soon came to night.
When the three married ships, Missouri, Veneto, and Changchun, arrived at Xiaobai's dormitory as agreed, and opened the door with the spare key to Xiaobai's room, the three of them had a particularly interesting reaction upon seeing the scene inside.
Changchun blushed and screamed, then covered her cheeks and squatted down by the door, her ears burning hot like hot irons.
Missouri looked at the scene in the room, covered her lips slightly, and soon revealed a mischievous smile.
As for Veneto...
As someone who had once given advice to Xiaobai, Veneto looked at the scene in the room and could only sigh helplessly, rubbing his forehead. His eyes held a mixture of resentment, helplessness, and a sense of "I knew it." In short, he probably didn't know what to say for the moment.
But finally.
Even though the three married ships outside the dormitory reacted differently, they all quietly looked around the corridor and, after confirming that no one was there, entered Xiaobai's room one after another.
The door is closed.
Outside the door, the moon hung high in the sky.
Dark clouds and scattered stars drifted in, obscuring the moon in the sky.
In the quiet night, the faint chirping of cicadas could be heard from time to time.
……
Noon on the second day.
The temporary garrison continues to operate as usual.
Nia only brought about ten ship girls with her when she participated in the Admiral Challenge; most of her ship girls remained in the naval base.
After the admiral left, the ship girls of Nia's family were left with nothing to do. They strolled around leisurely, chatted with each other, and enjoyed their vacation.
"Good morning, Admiral Lu Lin."
"Huh? Admiral Lu Lin, you smell really nice today."
"Hoohoho..."
The ship girls from Nia's family covered their mouths, looked at the blushing Shiro, and started joking with her.
As the ship girls from Nia's family were talking, suddenly, several more ship girls appeared in the corridor.
The three ship girls, Veneto, Missouri, and Changchun, appeared one after another.
These three were considered relatively well-known ship girls in the temporary naval base, so the ship girls from Nia's family greeted them warmly.
"Hey? Isn't that Veneto?!"
"Missouri, Missouri! Good morning!"
"Changchun sister—"
The ship girls greeted each other warmly, but soon, as they got a little closer to the three ship girls, the ship girls present were stunned again.
"Huh? Wait..."
"I smell, I smell... I smell..."
"How come even Missouri smells so strongly? But it's still much fainter than the scent on Admiral Lu Lin."
"Huh? Sister Veneto, what are you doing here too..."
"Lian Changchun—"
"...Are you using the same perfume?"
The ship girls at the temporary naval base stared in astonishment at the three newlywed ships.
Faced with the gazes of the ship girls from the temporary naval base, the three married ship girls reacted in different ways.
Changchun lowered her head, her face as red as two apples. She shyly changed the subject, stammering when faced with the ship girls' questions. She quickly said that she was going to find Sister Anshan, then bowed to everyone without a care and started digging.
Under the gaze of the ship girls, Veneto simply coughed lightly and quickly left the spot.
Missouri, on the other hand, seemed much more aloof. She simply stood there smiling, greeting the ship girls with ease. Facing their jokes and questions, Missouri didn't seem particularly awkward. She just smiled and said that she had simply had a friendly evening tea party with three senior ship girls the night before. Since they were all very close, it was inevitable that they would hug and kiss when they got excited, and it wasn't surprising that she would have some of Akagi's unique scent on her. She hoped that her seniors wouldn't misunderstand.
To be honest, Missouri's explanation is hard not to misunderstand.
But when Missouri said these words, she was so calm and composed, with a dignified appearance and a composed demeanor that the ship girls present couldn't help but believe her. They even suggested that next time there was a fun nighttime tea party like this, they should invite them to participate as well.
Missouri naturally nodded in agreement, and then smiled as she looked at Little White.
Xiao Bai didn't dare to look at the crowd. She just stood at the edge of the corridor, holding onto the railing, looking at the sky with a serene and indifferent expression.
As the ship girls watched Xiaobai's retreating figure, they inexplicably felt that this Admiral Lu Lin seemed to be more mature than they had imagined.
As for exactly where it has ripened...
It's hard to say about the ship girls.
The temporary garrison continued to operate as usual.
……
It is worth mentioning that two days later, the ship girls of the temporary naval base finally saw Akagi Abyss after a long time.
However, when Akagi reappeared in the sight of the ship girls, she always walked with a slight limp for a while. When the ship girls kindly asked her how she got injured, Akagi always pursed her lips, held a faint smile, and remained silent.
At the same time, the ring on her hand was always carefully polished until it sparkled, its luster even better than before.
Chapter 2880 Formidable Vigilance
Three days after seeing Nia and Luo Lian off, Xiao Bai finally got busy with her own things after taking care of all the matters that came up early in the morning.
"Admiral Lu Lin!"
