do not know.

It seems... there's no reason?

Huh?

Then why did I do this...?

I clearly don't have the guts to do that...

As the ship girl pondered, her gaze gradually became puzzled.

Seeing the ship girl's puzzled expression, Xiaobai smiled at her.

Can't answer that?

"...Yes, I'm sorry..." The ship girl lowered her head apologetically.

"That's alright, let me ask you two more questions." Xiaobai said to the ship girl, "Do you know why you're in the Admiral's Guild?"

"I...I did many wrong things in the past, so I am now at the Admiral's Guild to atone for my sins..." the ship girl replied, her head bowed.

Do you remember the mistakes you made?

"Remember……"

"Will you continue doing this in the future?"

"No! No! I absolutely won't do it again!" The ship girl shook her head frantically, pleading with Xiaobai, "I...I'll never do bad things again!"

"I see." Xiaobai nodded with a smile. "Then I'll ask you one last question."

“Okay…” The ship girl swallowed nervously, looking at Xiaobai.

"Have you ever heard of... Ke Yuan?" Xiao Bai asked.

"...Ke Yuan...?" The ship girl looked at Xiaobai, her gaze honest yet confused. "Never heard of him?"

Duan Shuiliu, who was standing to the side, tilted his head slightly when he saw this.

"In that case, it's all over." Xiaobai said to the ship girl with a smile, "I won't hold you accountable for what happened today. You should go back to work now."

"Thank you, thank you Admiral Lu Lin for your mercy!" Upon hearing that Xiao Bai had forgiven her, the ship girl was immediately moved to tears. She quickly climbed off the bed and kept bowing to Xiao Bai and Duan Shuiliu. "I'm so sorry! I'm really sorry for today! I... I must have lost my mind, that's why I thought of attacking Admiral Lu Lin. I'm so sorry!"

After the ship girl finished speaking, she made a move to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute," Xiaobai called out to the ship girl.

The ship girl stopped and looked at Xiaobai with a frightened expression.

"You didn't take your spare key." Xiaobai picked up the spare key from the bedside table and tossed it to the ship girl.

The ship girl hurriedly accepted the spare key.

"Although I personally won't pursue the matter further today, the Admiral's Guild won't let you off easily for stealing the spare key and putting sleeping pills in my milk tea. I won't plead for you this time either," Xiaobai said to the ship girl. "Even if you turn yourself in, you'll probably face a terrible outcome. At the very least, you'll likely be under close surveillance by the Admiral's Guild for a long time, spending endless, tedious, and arduous repetitive physical labor while awaiting your Admiral's final verdict."

"Waaah..." The ship girl clutched the spare key in her arms, her face filled with such frustration that she was almost crying. "I...I know...this is the punishment I deserve..."

The ship girl grabbed the key and ran out of the room.

Soon, only the unconscious Nanxing, Xiaobai, and Duan Shuiliu remained in the room.

Duan Shuiliu quietly looked at the closed door.

"...She doesn't remember Ke Yuan?" Duan Shuiliu turned to Xiaobai and asked.

"Hmm, I don't remember anything at all." Xiaobai sighed and said with great guilt, "I just... removed all the parts about Ke Yuan from that ship girl's memories."

"...You still have this ability?"

"I...I really don't want to do this." Xiaobai lowered her head, looking at her hands.

"what happened?"

"Touching someone else's memories at will is already an excessive act, especially to arbitrarily delete or alter those memories. For the person whose memories have been modified, it is an unforgivable evil... Moreover, this time I changed almost her entire life's memories. Such an act is almost like erasing someone's life. I don't like this, I feel very guilty, and I feel deeply sorry for my actions. But if I don't do this, this ship girl will never be free in this lifetime. Of course, I am also the one who caused her to become like this. Since that's the case, since I am already such an incorrigible bad person in her eyes, then I might as well be bad to the end. Whether she hates me, despises me, or fears me, at least in my opinion, after deleting the memories related to Ke Yuan, she can live a little easier, and I can also live a little easier."

Xiaobai spoke at length, as if he were complaining about his own behavior.

As Xiao Bai spoke, she suddenly realized the identity of Duan Shuiliu beside her.

Xiao Bai quickly looked at Duan Shuiliu and nervously started gesturing wildly at him.

"Um... Sister Duan, this memory erasure method... is, it's deep hypnosis, it's a kind of hypnosis technique! I learned it from a book, it's written in a book!" Xiaobai stammered, explaining in a flustered manner.

Duan Shuiliu looked at Xiaobai, who looked nervous, nodded, and gave Xiaobai a slight pursed-lip gesture.

"Impressive ability," Duan Shuiliu said with a light smile.

"..." Xiaobai awkwardly crossed his arms and lowered his head.

"Now that the ship girl's memories have been erased, she should be able to complete her ideological reform soon and graduate from the military police, right?" Duan Shuiliu calmly asked Xiaobai. "What are you going to do then? Do you want her to join your naval base?"

“…Sigh, never mind.” Xiaobai shook her head, muttering to herself with a complicated look in her eyes, “I hope I never have to see this ship girl again.”

"why?"

"I already feel very guilty about manipulating her memories and changing most of her life's memories," Xiaobai said. "I don't regret doing it, but if possible, I want to forget it as much as possible, so please don't let me see her again in the future."

“Okay,” Duan Shuiliu said. “Then I’ll find a way to get her into the military police.”

"Thank you for your help, Sister Duan," Xiaobai said.

“No trouble at all. She’s already a ship girl from one of the top ten naval bases in the world, so her combat strength is guaranteed,” Duan Shuiliu said.

"Hmm..." Xiaobai hummed in response.

The room remained quiet for a while longer.

After a while.

Duan Shuiliu's clear, cold voice rang out again.

"So... what about Ke Yuan?"

"Make him pay the price he deserves," Xiaobai's voice rang out. "He's been bothering me for too long, and I don't want to be bothered by him anymore."

"it is good."

Inside the room, the water flowed crisply in response.

Xiao Bai slowly hugged Duan Shuiliu, let out a long sigh, and pressed her head into Duan Shuiliu's arms.

Duan Shuiliu reached out and hugged Xiaobai's head, gently stroking Xiaobai's white hair.

Feeling the gentle caress on the back of his head and the cool fragrance emanating from Duan Shuiliu, Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

I feel...so tired.

Xiao Bai held Duan Shuiliu's slender and soft waist through her clothes, thinking to herself.

"Sister Duan... thank you."

"Ah."

Duan Shuiliu bent down and hugged Xiaobai, nodding in agreement.

Chapter 2908 The Highly Sought-After Little White

"Xiao Wang, this potion may look ordinary, but I got it from Admiral Lu Lin, so you'd better take good care of it!"

"This is the hope of our medical community!"

"If this potion is not stored properly and loses its potency, I will have no face to see Admiral Lu Lin!"

On the hospital floor, the old doctor watched intently as the nurse carefully sealed the cup containing ink into the low-temperature safe, still offering words of advice with concern.

"Don't worry, Elder Nan."

It seemed that this wasn't the first time the nurse had been instructed by the old doctor. She turned around and nodded to the old doctor, her steady movements without any hesitation.

"Ah! That's good, that's good!"

The old doctor watched with bated breath as the nurse skillfully stored the ink in batches. Only then did he get up with satisfaction, greet the nurse with a smile, and leave with peace of mind.

After leaving the hospital floor, the old doctor walked alone in the deserted corridor.

The corridor was unusually quiet, and the bright red carpet reflected the old doctor's mood.

The old doctor's steps became increasingly light. He felt as if he had unloaded a heavy burden and had become twenty or thirty years younger in an instant, returning to that vibrant age, as if he couldn't help but jump up after taking a few steps.

"Although Admiral Lu Lin's treatment method won't work on ordinary people, it at least gives the research progress, which has been stalled for so long, a new direction. This is truly a great harvest, a great harvest indeed... Admiral Lu Lin is truly a genius... truly a genius..." The old doctor couldn't hide his excitement as he murmured, and when he reached this point, his wrinkled face instantly filled with a gratified smile. "Although storing the ink took a while, this way, Xiao Nan can finally spend more time alone with Admiral Lu Lin as she wishes... Hehe, that brat Xiao Nan, this is the first time I've seen her care so much about someone outside her family. She... she's really done something earth-shattering this time..."

As the old doctor finished speaking, he glanced down at his wristwatch.

It had been about half an hour since he left the guest room.

I wonder how Governor Lu Lin and his clueless granddaughter are getting along.

Two girls alone in a guest room, their feelings for each other must be heating up quickly, right?

Thinking of this, the old doctor sighed with relief.

Muttering to himself, the old doctor returned to his accommodation floor.

The old doctor was now standing right in front of the room where he had been staying, number 102.

The old doctor was preparing to compose himself and enter the room when, in the next second, before he could even get close, the door to room 102 was suddenly pushed open from the inside. A disheveled ship girl, clutching her chest, blushing, bending over, and with tears in her eyes, ran out of the room in a flash. She groaned a few times and disappeared at the end of the corridor in the blink of an eye.

The old doctor stared in disbelief at the ship girl who had suddenly appeared.

"what?"

The old doctor looked up and glanced at the room number.

Did I go to the wrong room?

its not right.

Is it number 102?

The old doctor stood at the door, staring at the room number in confusion for a long time. After confirming that this was the room he had been in, he reached out and grabbed the doorknob without thinking.

"I guess she's... a ship girl attendant who came in to clean?"

"But what exactly is wrong with her appearance..."

Although the old doctor considered himself a gentleman, he was still a man in his seventies or eighties with decades of life experience. He had faced countless temptations throughout his life, and even without consciously thinking about it, his mind would automatically conjure up a rather indescribable scene based on what he had just witnessed.

"Admiral Lu Lin seems quite honest; she probably wouldn't do something so shady..."

"Besides, Xiao Nan is still in the room..."

The old doctor muttered to himself and opened the door.

The door opened, and the old doctor walked into the room.

"Admiral Lu Lin! I've kept you waiting! I'm back... uh?!"

Before the old doctor could even finish greeting everyone upon entering the room, his eyes widened as he witnessed a scene that utterly shocked him.

Inside the double suite, Nanxing, dressed only in a shirt and shorts, lay on the damp sheets, her long legs dangling over the edge of the bed. She was unconscious with her eyes closed. Beside Nanxing's bed, Admiral Lu Lin and another woman were embracing passionately. On the second bed in front of them, the creases were wrinkled, and the traces of two bodies that had once been lying on it could be vaguely seen.

"..." Old doctor.

Even with decades of life experience, the old doctor's brain couldn't help but shut down at this moment.

Just as the old doctor was staring blankly at the scene in the room, the two figures who were embracing each other affectionately noticed his entry. They slowly separated and looked at him.

"Oh, grandpa, you're back!"

Xiao Bai waved enthusiastically to the old doctor.

"..." The old doctor stared blankly at Xiaobai, his gaze unconsciously glancing at his granddaughter lying on the bed. "Admiral Lu... Admiral Lu Lin, did I... did I come back at the wrong time?"

"What are you saying? You've come back at just the right time."

Xiao Bai walked up enthusiastically, and the figures around her followed.

It wasn't until the figure beside Xiaobai drew closer that the old doctor realized that the person who had just embraced Xiaobai so tenderly was actually another top ten admiral.

"Hello."

Duan Shuiliu bowed slightly to the old doctor to show his respect.

The old doctor watched Duan Shuiliu silently, his gaze gradually becoming complicated.

"Admiral Lu Lin, it took a while to store the ink."

"Yeah, it's okay. I happen to have some free time to take care of something," Xiaobai said with a smile.
