"Waaaah—" Little White cried as she put fish into her mouth.
The ship girls around Xiaobai were also infected by Xiaobai's eating habits. They quickly gathered around Missouri and took out their chopsticks to pick up pieces of grilled fish.
"Uuuuuu——"
"It's so delicious!"
"A culinary genius!"
None of the ship girls escaped unscathed; even Bismarck, after eating them, shrunk back into the corner with a dejected expression.
Jinqu watched as Missouri smiled and left the table, returning to the doorway.
"Hello!" Jinqu greeted Missouri stiffly.
“Hello, Senior Encouragement,” Missouri said with a smile.
"Um... um, did you make that dish?" Jinqu asked.
“Yes, would you like to try some, Senior Encouragement?” Missouri asked.
"Ah...no need, thank you." Jinqu glanced at the ship girl wailing and crying at the dinner table, then thought for a moment and gave up.
“Oh, that’s a pity,” Missouri said with a smile to Enterprise.
"Are you always cooking in the kitchen?"
"That's all Missouri can do to help."
"Oh..." Looking at Missouri's graceful and virtuous demeanor, Jinqu couldn't help but admire her as a marriage ship, but also felt a bit envious. "She's really amazing."
"No matter how powerful Missouri is, you can't make the Admiral smile like that when he's facing Missouri," Missouri said.
"what?"
“The Admiral likes children, so he can relax in front of Fubuki-senpai, but he’s much more reserved in front of Missouri.” Missouri said, reaching out to gently pat Jinqu’s shoulder. “So the Admiral really likes you. Keep it up, Jinqu-senpai.”
Jinqu stared blankly at Missouri's hand patting his shoulder.
—Is this ship girl explaining to herself about Bismarck patting her on the shoulder earlier?
—Or was he telling himself that his benefactor only smiled at Fubuki because he liked children, and that he didn't treat him like an outsider?
Thinking about this, he glanced at the little white dog on the table and Bismarck in the corner.
Finally, she smiled with a sense of relief.
—So I wasn't disliked after all. That's great.
He smiled smugly, but his expression quickly turned to one of confusion.
Wait a minute, the first one is fine, but how did she know the second one? Does she think her face is full of her true feelings?
Besides, wasn't she absent the whole time? How did she know if she wasn't there?
Wow, what a shrew!
The more Jinqu thought about it, the more confused he became, and the more frightening the ship girls in front of him seemed, like monsters.
Are wedding ships all this scary these days?
She swallowed hard, looked at Missouri, and muttered in bewilderment, "How are you so amazing?"
"Hmm? You mean cooking?" Missouri smiled meaningfully, raised her left hand, and stuck out her little tongue at Ambition.
The silver ring shimmered like starlight.
"Because the most delicious thing in the world is the food that the bride cooks for her husband."
Missouri stuck out her tongue and said half-jokingly, her beautiful face displaying a cuteness and playfulness that seemed incongruous with her composed and serene appearance.
Chapter 612 Landing on the Island
Missouri's words made Enterprise stand still and think for a long time.
—Well, after thinking for a long time, Jinqu still didn't know what to say. She looked at Missouri, her eyes gradually changing from surprise and astonishment to longing and admiration.
As expected of a marriage vessel, its discerning eye and magnanimity are far beyond my reach.
Jinqu sighed, a sense of melancholy welling up in his heart.
They're even married ships, so their combat power can't be low. I'm just an ordinary ship girl, I'm really overthinking things.
As I pondered ambition, my heart grew somewhat cold.
Missouri went back to the kitchen and came back with several plates of stir-fried, glistening dishes.
"Missouri, when did you learn to cook?" Xiaobai watched as Missouri magically brought out the stir-fries, each dish a feast for the eyes and the palate, like gourmet delicacies, refreshing Xiaobai's taste buds time and time again, and she couldn't help but feel deeply curious.
Xiaobai and Missouri have spent time alone together before. Back in Yuxiu, they lived under the same roof. Missouri would occasionally cook for Hood, but the food was just good. It was nothing like the gourmet dishes they have now, which are not made by the same person at all.
“Missouri’s skills have remained the same as before, without any improvement,” Missouri said to Little White.
"Then why does it suddenly taste so good?" Xiaobai asked.
Missouri appeared to have finished serving the dishes. She walked over to Xiaobai, gently sat down on the floor, and pressed her body against Xiaobai's.
The spot next to Xiaobai is always highly sought after, but as Missouri is a married ship, it's only natural for her to sit there. The other ship girls are somewhat envious, but they can't say anything else.
Missouri picked up a piece of fish and put it in her mouth.
"People rarely choose to barbecue at home; they prefer the outdoors. That's the influence of the environment on food, isn't it? Missouri's skills aren't as good as Akagi-senpai's. The reason you find it delicious, Admiral, is simply because Missouri benefited from the sea's warmth." Missouri said, then picked up another piece of snow-white fish and held it to Shiro's lips. "Admiral, ah—"
Little White opened its mouth and bit Missouri's chopsticks.
“If there’s any change,” Missouri murmured in a low voice, watching Little White chew on the fish, her eyes narrowed, “it’s a change in feelings.”
"Huh? Missouri, what did you just say?"
"Missouri is saying the moonlight is beautiful."
"Haha, it's daytime now, there's no moon." Little White laughed.
Missouri smiled gently.
From a distance, Jinqu watched Missouri and Xiaobai.
—This ship girl named Missouri is amazing…
As Jinqu was thinking, she suddenly felt as if her hands were being pulled. She looked down and saw four little blue-haired girls surrounding her, their faces full of adorable smiles.
"Hello, Jinqu-neechan. My name is Fubuki, and this is my younger sister, Shirayuki, Hatsuyuki, and Fumie." Fubuki grinned as she introduced herself to Jinqu.
"Oh, hello little Fubuki!"
"That guy with the big breasts is called Changchun." Chuixue pointed to Changchun behind her, who was pouring juice into a cup on the dining table.
"..." Jinqu gave an awkward smile. "Hello."
"Big sister, come quickly!" Chui Xue pulled Jin Qu's hand and walked to the other side of the table, sitting down next to Yi Xian.
"Would you like something to drink?" Yi Xian asked Jin Qu.
"Um... thank you, plain water is fine." Jinqu replied, blushing slightly, looking at Erlin Wulingjiusanliujiu-Qiong Yixian.
I think I was held in this ship girl's arms when I was feeling crazy. At the time, it felt as warm as my mother's embrace. Now, I see that she is clearly a beautiful woman who looks even a year or two younger than me.
"Water." Yi Xian had no idea what Jin Qu was thinking. She unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and poured it into Jin Qu's cup.
"Thanks……"
"It was nothing." Yixian put the water bottle back. "Jinqu, do you live alone?"
"Um, those who have roommates..."
"May I ask what you usually like to do?"
"Um, watch some short videos, then browse the internet..."
"Don't girls your age like shopping?"
"It's not very convenient to go shopping in the artificial city... and you still have to work..."
Upon hearing Jinqu's words, Fubuki's little head popped out from under the table in a flash. She grabbed Jinqu's leg and said excitedly, "Our naval base has lots of fun things to do, and it's really relaxing!"
"Ah, um..." Jinqu looked at Fubuki's excited expression and felt a strange sense of being roasted in the face.
“The naval base has been expanded recently, and it has everything now!” Fubuki said.
All she could say about this ambition was how envious she was.
"Fubuki." Yixian smiled at Fubuki.
"What's wrong with Sister Yixian?"
"Call Tirpitz. She's been sleeping for a long time."
"Received!" The four Fubuki sisters quickly stood up, stomped past Changchun who was walking towards them with two water bottles, and with a snap and a coquettish cry from Changchun, they each slipped into a corner of the cabin and helped up a pink-haired ship girl who was sleeping like a dead person.
"Fubuki, you patted my butt again!" Changchun shouted at Fubuki, his face flushed.
"Hehehe!" Fubuki stuck out her bright red little tongue at Changchun.
Changchun gritted her teeth, snorted, and walked between Yixian and Jinqu. She angrily put one of the kettles on the table.
“You two seem to have a good relationship,” Jinqu said to Changchun.
"No way, I hate snow the most." Changchun said angrily, unscrewing the water bottle in his hand, and then gulping it down.
Jinqu wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she smelled a pungent smell of alcohol coming from a kettle in Changchun.
Liquor????
Jinqu looked at Changchun in surprise.
Changchun had just turned on the kettle, and her face was flushed pink from the alcohol. She smiled gently at Jinqu, her expression incredibly charming.
He fell into deep thought.
“That’s how it is at our naval base, you’ll get used to it,” Yi Xian said from the other side of Jin Qu, then handed her a pair of chopsticks. “Miss Jin Qu, are you getting used to using chopsticks?”
"Ah, no problem, no problem."
"That's good. Because of the admiral's position, we at the garrison usually use chopsticks for most of our meals. Please understand if you're not used to it," Yi Xian said.
"Oh..." Jinqu picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
—It was absolutely delicious!
"Speaking of which, does Miss Jinqu have any plans to change jobs?" Yixian asked.
"Pfft—" Jinqu was relieved he hadn't drunk any water. "Huh? What?"
"Our naval base has a fairly mature transfer system that supports foreign ship girls (as well as Abyssal Fleet girls) to join us. Although it's not very good for me to say this, if Miss Enterprise wants to transfer, the procedures can be completed within three days."
"..." Jinqu stared blankly at Yixian, who smiled back at him.
Jinqu turned to look at Xiaobai, who was chatting happily with Missouri. Saratoga quickly gritted her teeth and crawled to Xiaobai's other side, hugging Xiaobai's waist and making a series of moaning sounds.
"I..." Things happened so suddenly that Jinqu was a little at a loss.
“No rush to reply.” Yi Xian smiled at Jin Qu and said, “We’ll be staying in the artificial city for a long time. If you need to think about it, Miss Jin Qu can take your time.”
"...I still have a roommate..."
"Oh, Miss Ambition has a roommate? Isn't that even better?"
"???"
Jinqu wanted to ask more, but Yixian had no intention of continuing the topic. She picked up her chopsticks and placed a piece of fish on Jinqu's plate.
"Try the fish."
"kindness."
"By the way, Miss Ambition, do you know the significance of this meal?"
"Huh? Does it have another meaning?"
“A table with fish is a family reunion dinner,” Yi Xian said with a smile.
Jinqu feels like he's been given a magic potion, and he's completely dizzy.
Time passed slowly on the ship. After dinner, night fell. When it was time to go to bed, the ship girls had a heated discussion about who would sleep next to Shiro. Surprisingly, Yixian won in the end.
The next day, the yacht, which was traveling at sea, finally approached a large artificial island.
