Elder brother's garrison

"Uh... the Admiral found out, meow..." Akashi withdrew her hand, glancing somewhat awkwardly at the four ship girls sitting on the sofa not far away. Then she walked over to Shiro and whispered, "Actually, Akashi also has something to ask of me, meow..."

"Hmm? Tell me about it?"

"Just now, when the Admiral entered Akashi's shop, wasn't there a little incident, meow?" Akashi said to Shiro. "Akashi told the Admiral that she secretly sells the Admiral's private photos, meow..."

"That's true." Xiaobai nodded.

"Waaah, Akashi begs the Admiral to have mercy and let Akashi continue selling photos, meow!" Akashi immediately raised her hands to Shiro, as if to strike.

"Huh? Why?" Xiaobai was taken aback.

"Because...because this is the hottest, most profitable business in Akashi's shop, meow!" Akashi pitifully calculated for Shiro, "Twelve rolls of film only cost twenty-three and a half dollars, meow, but after being photographed as the Admiral's picture, the price increases a hundredfold, and there are endless people scrambling to get them from Akashi. This is the most cost-effective business in Akashi's shop, meow...If I were to give it up like this, Akashi would be unable to eat or sleep, meow..."

"……"noob.

"Please, Admiral, show some leniency, meow!" Akashi pleaded pitifully again. "Akashi is willing to share half of the profits from the photos with the Admiral, meow. Even if only half is left, I'll still make a profit, meow! Please give Akashi a chance, meow! Don't tell Lexington about this, meow!"

"Sigh...you really are..." Xiaobai rubbed her forehead, quite helplessly, "This is my photo..."

"Waaaa, this is Akashi's eternal plea, meow..."

"..."

Xiaobai looked at Akashi helplessly, then turned her head to look at the four ship girls who were sitting on the sofa happily choosing clothes, and finally looked back at Akashi.

At this moment, Akashi also widened her bright eyes and came closer, looking obedient, sensible, hopeful, and devout.

“…Okay then,” Xiaobai said to Akashi, “What kind of photos of me did you sell me? Let me see them.”

“It’s all here, meow!” Akashi immediately reached into the ship’s equipment space, pulled out a yellow envelope, and handed it to Shiro with both hands.

Xiaobai looked at the envelope, reached out and took it, then glanced at the side of the envelope.

Oh wow... this envelope... it's strangely thick.

Feeling the rough texture of the parchment and its heavy weight, Xiaobai opened the envelope and took out the contents to look at them.

The envelope contained, as expected, photographs.

Furthermore, according to Akashi, these are all her own photos.

At first, Xiaobai thought that the "private photos" Akashi mentioned were those explicit photos that the Iowa-class ship girls secretly uploaded and shared among themselves on social media. However, when Xiaobai looked at the "private photos" that Akashi handed her, she was slightly surprised.

In all these photos, I'm wearing clothes properly.

Furthermore, Akashi's timing and angles were excellent. Although I had no relevant memories, I seemed to be perfectly in sync with Akashi's camera, blending in with the surrounding scenery and other characters, making me look exceptionally photogenic.

Xiaobai even saw photos of himself taking Changchun to visit Yixian and the others a while ago in these photos.

In the photo, I'm smiling as I walk with Yixian, Changchun, and Chongqing, surrounded by lush greenery and colorful flowers. Everything in the frame looks exceptionally harmonious.

Xiaobai put down the photo and looked at Akashi strangely.

"Akashi... how were these photos taken?"

"Akashi secretly took the picture herself, meow..."

"So... you've actually been following me all along?" Xiaobai asked, puzzled.

"No, no, Admiral, you've misunderstood!" Akashi quickly waved her hand, explaining, "Akashi only buys things when the Admiral is at the naval base, when she wants to stock up! Otherwise, Akashi stays obediently in the shop, no..."

What does "purchasing goods" mean?

"Buying stock means... buying stock means... Akashi only has one of each of these photos, Nyan. As a product for sale, Akashi does not mass-produce photos to make money. Akashi adds a unique, uncopyable number to each photo and even created a website to record all the numbered photos. Each one is unique and has great collectible value, Nyan!"

"Okay, okay, you're involved in cryptocurrency, right?"

"What is cryptocurrency, meow? Akashi doesn't know, meow."

"Okay." Xiaobai quickly flipped through the photos, put them back in the envelope, and returned the envelope to Akashi.

This Akashi... I didn't expect her to be so good at taking candid photos, and she's been following me for so long without me even noticing...

Ok……

Although supply ships and repair ships are inherently weak in presence, somewhere between deep-sea ships and ship girls... even so, Akashi's ability to conceal herself is superior to Shiro's detection, which is quite remarkable for a naval base.

Shiro acknowledged Akashi's skill.

"Admiral, Admiral, about the sale of the photos..." Akashi held the envelope, looking cautiously at Shiro.

"Sigh, whatever, just keep selling."

After thinking for a while, Xiaobai said to Mingshi.

Xiaobai was actually somewhat used to people selling her photos for money... After all, over the years she'd been an admiral, some people in the naval base had turned her into a bestselling manga character, others into the subject of unspeakable doujinshi, and still others had secretly drawn erotic illustrations of her, written fanfiction pairing her with various ship girls in the naval base, collected her TV interview videos, her clothes, her fallen hairs, and took some incredibly explicit photos that she couldn't show to others...

In a sense, this is also the tribulation that Xiaobai was destined to endure when he became an admiral.

In the end, Xiaobai's life is destined to be a plaything for her own ship girls.

Compared to these things, Akashi simply taking photos of herself dressed properly seems all the more precious.

Xiao Bai felt that he should encourage this kind of behavior that maintains the positive image of the admiral.

"Thank you, Admiral! Thank you for your support, Admiral!" Akashi raised her little hand and happily thanked Shiro. "Half of the proceeds from the sale of Akashi's photos will be sent to the Admiral as a thank-you gift, meow!"

"Forget about profit sharing, I'm not short of money." Xiaobai smiled at Akashi and reached out to touch Akashi's green hair. "Hmm... but you have to be careful... since you showed me these kinds of photos, the photos I help you sell in the future can only be this style... I can pretend I don't know anything about this."

"Please rest assured, Admiral! Akashi is very trustworthy!"

Akashi immediately gave Shiro a thumbs up and said, jumping up and down.

Xiaobai could only sigh, hoping in her heart that Akashi would live up to her expectations and act in accordance with her words and deeds.

While Xiaobai was chatting with Akashi, the four ship girls from Changchun finally chose their favorite clothes and went into the dressing room with their clothes in their arms.

Inside the changing room, as the ship girls entered, the rustling sounds of changing clothes gradually filled the air.

Several slender figures could be vaguely seen through the curtain of the changing room.

Xiao Bai stared at the curtain for a while, then felt someone gently tugging at his sleeve.

Xiaobai turned her head to look at her side and saw Akashi tiptoeing up to her with a mysterious expression on his face.

"Admiral, Admiral, if you go to peek now, Akashi will pretend she didn't see anything, meow."

"What kind of person do you take me for..." Xiaobai smiled bitterly.

"Such a good opportunity, Admiral, why don't you peek, meow?" Akashi asked expectantly. "When the girls are changing clothes, you accidentally wander in for various reasons, then hug the naked ship girls inside, and all sorts of things happen, deepening their feelings for each other. Isn't that the basic plot development, meow?"

"I don't even know where to begin criticizing you."

Shiro reached out and poked Akashi's smooth forehead.

Akashi covered her head, made a "meow" sound, and took two steps back.

The ship girls took longer to change clothes than expected.

Xiao Bai waited on the sofa in front of the door for a while. Finally, after a long time, the curtain of the room belonging to Kiat was the first to be pulled open among the four dressing rooms.

"Commander...sir? I'm all changed..."

Kiat's voice came out hesitantly.

Xiao Bai looked in the direction of the sound, and upon seeing Kiat, he opened his eyes in surprise.

"Wow, Kit, your outfit is really... very much your style!"

In Xiaobai's view, the clothes that Kiate was wearing when she walked out of the dressing room were actually a white witch outfit from a two-dimensional anime.

Kiart wore a white witch's hat with black spots on her head and a cool white sleeveless dress. The hem of the dress was just right, revealing Kiart's jade-like calves and the strappy high-heeled sandals on her legs.

The material of Kiart's outfit was peculiar; it seemed opaque, yet it subtly shone through as she moved. When Kiart stood before her, Xiaobai felt as if she could see Kiart's exquisite waistline and leg curves through the witch's dress. But those faintly visible curves would vanish as soon as they were caught, disappearing with the sway of the skirt, as if playing hide-and-seek with one's gaze.

Kiat stopped in front of Xiaobai, put one arm behind her back and touched her back, then looked at Xiaobai silently with a questioning gaze.

Kiatna's expression was as if he were asking, "Commander, is this outfit alright?"

Faced with Kiat's questioning gaze, Xiaobai immediately clapped for Kiat and then gave him a thumbs up.

"Kiart, it's so pretty!"

“Hmm…” Kiat hastily scratched his back, then straightened his clothes at his side, and nodded to Xiaobai, “This one will do, Commander.”

Chapter 3897 White Witch

Judging from her facial expression and reaction, Kiat herself did not seem to show much "liking" or "indifference" towards the new clothes she was wearing. The reason she nodded to buy the outfit seemed to be simply because Xiaobai gave her a relatively positive response to her new clothes.

"Meow meow meow! I'm sure I want to buy this one, meow!"

Before Xiaobai could speak again, Akashi seized the opportunity to step in front of Xiaobai and Kiat.

With a sly, ingratiating smile on her face, she rubbed her bright green sleeves and spoke to Kiat.

"Kiart has such good taste, meow! This is Akashi's most prized work lately, meow! It's called 'The Witch's Good Fortune,' meow!"

"Witch Transformation in Progress? What a strange name."

"It's a change of luck, it's a change of luck, meow!"

Does this mean the witch's luck is improving?

"The 'transfer' part refers to the logistics aspect, like the 'transfer cat'..."

"Huh? What does this outfit have to do with logistics?"

"Because there's an anime called Kiki's Delivery Service... this outfit is a reference to that anime."

"An animated film I've never seen before."

"That's an old cartoon from a really, really long time ago, meow."

Akashi looked somewhat tired, and her voice grew softer and softer.

Kiat wasn't sure if she understood or not. She blinked, but finally turned her attention back to her witch costume.

"Hmm... okay... as for whether the work is well received or not... I'm not really sure, but this outfit feels cool and light against my skin, and there's no feeling of restriction below, it's really quite comfortable." As Kiat spoke, she pulled up her skirt and unguardedly twisted her body from side to side in front of Shiro and Akashi. The snow-white skirt hem swept past her knees as she pulled, directly exposing a large section of her tender, slender, and smooth thighs. The position was high enough that it seemed that if it went any higher, it would reveal even more private parts of the girl's body.

Perhaps because she was a naughty child for more than ten years, Kiat has always been a ship girl with a bit of a boyish side.

This is not only true during her time as a destroyer.

Even now that she's been converted into a missile ship, Kiat's body has grown into a slender woman with long legs and fair skin, making her appear quite feminine at least outwardly. However, the boyish charm still lingers in her demeanor.

However, as the saying goes, clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse.

When Akashi put on Kiart's white witch outfit, it was as if it had a magical effect, instantly softening Kiart's temperament from "a pretty child dressed as a boy" to "a light and clever young girl".

A proper young woman suddenly lifted her skirt in front of him, revealing a pair of beautiful long legs. This sight made Xiaobai's heart skip a beat, and he quickly took two steps back.

"Waaaaah..." Little White immediately turned to the side and covered her eyes.

"Huh? Commander? What are you doing?" Kiat looked up and looked at Xiaobai with some curiosity.

"The skirt, the skirt is pulled up too high..." Xiaobai said softly, covering her eyes.

"skirt?"

Kiat seemed completely unaware that Xiaobai's actions were related to her own behavior. In her subconscious, she seemed to still be Kiat without any gender symbols and Kiat with big, carefree movements.

But after Xiaobai's repeated prompting, even if Kiat was stupid, he knew that Xiaobai's reaction was because she saw his exposed body.

After realizing this, Kiara pulled up her skirt and blinked at Little White for a while.

The scene was quiet for a few seconds.

"...Commander, I'm a destroyer, you know?" Kiara, holding her skirt, took small steps forward, her eyes filled with a strange look as she curiously stared at Xiaobai. "Commander...you're covering your eyes, could it be...you're having a reaction to the destroyer's body?"

"It's a matter of etiquette, a matter of etiquette... Besides, you're not a destroyer anymore, you're a missile ship. You have to accept the reality that you're no longer a little girl..." Xiaobai quickly shook her head and kept explaining.

"This proves that after seeing this outfit on the ship, the Admiral has started to see Kiat as a girl of marriageable age, meow!" Akashi said, explaining to Kiat with a smile.

“Hmm…I’m not a little girl anymore…” After hearing Akashi’s words, Kiat looked at Shiro covering her face and shaking her head. She was silent for a while, then murmured with a smile.

Kiat finally slowly lowered the hem of her skirt.

“Let’s go with this set then, it looks pretty good,” Kiat said to Akashi.

"Hehehe, it's Akashi's honor to receive the customer's approval, meow. When you wear this outfit out in the future, be sure to give Akashi's little shop a lot of advertising, meow!" Akashi rubbed her hands together and took out scissors, fabric, and other items from her ship equipment space. "Now that you've decided on the clothes you want to buy, Kiat, go sit on the sofa for a while, meow. These clothes are general-purpose sizes, so they're not the most suitable for Kiat's body shape. Let Akashi alter the fit for you a bit, meow!"

"Oh, it does feel a little loose at the edges," Kiat said, touching his collar. "Should I take my clothes off?"

"Trust Akashi's skills, meow! Just put it on and alter it, meow!" Akashi pushed Kiat onto the sofa, then squatted down, took out scissors and needle and thread, and quickly began altering Kiat's clothes.

Akashi's movements were swift and efficient. In just a few minutes, Kiat's clothes were altered to better suit her figure, and the altered clothes were left without any marks, still shining as if they were brand new.

Kiat touched the modified witch's outfit, sat on the sofa, took out her phone, and took a picture of herself.
