Elder brother's garrison

"I see." Missouri put the backpack into her ship equipment space.

After tidying up the room for half an hour, Xiaobai, who was putting away her toothbrush in the bathroom, suddenly became curious about Ella's situation.

Xiaobai's impression of Ella is that she is the kind of girl who has been waited on and taken care of since childhood, to the point that she has almost zero self-care ability. Who knows what strange difficulties she might encounter when she is alone in her room.

Missouri told Xiaobai that she could clean the room by herself and that Xiaobai shouldn't mind her being there, and that she could go find other girls, since she would get her money back every night anyway. Only then was Xiaobai pushed out of the room by Missouri.

Ella's room number two was still open.

Xiao Bai knocked on the door twice, but there was no response from inside. Out of curiosity, Xiao Bai went into Ella's room.

Xiao Bai thought Ella would encounter a lot of trouble while tidying up her room, such as not being able to find the bathroom, not knowing how to boil water for a shower, or making a mess of the floor while tidying up her clothes. However, after Xiao Bai entered Ella's room, she realized that she had indeed been overthinking things.

Ella was currently lying on the double bed, tugging at the soft sheets with a satisfied expression, her whole body squeezed into the blankets, sleeping soundly as comfortably as a baby back in its cradle.

She never even considered tidying up the room.

—Too Zen-like.

Xiaobai was shocked by Ella's mindset.

Walking to the bedside, Xiaobai glanced at the sleeping Ella.

Only then did Xiaobai notice a trace of fatigue gradually fading from Ella's sleeping face.

Ella might also find the train environment quite uncomfortable.

Xiao Bai sighed, climbed into bed, helped Ella take off her outer clothes, straightened her sleeping position, and covered her with the blanket.

As Ella's admiral's uniform was being hung on the hanger, a notebook fell out of Ella's pocket.

A train ticket also fell down with it.

Xiao Bai picked up the train ticket and notebook, and glanced at the train ticket.

It turned out to be a three-day seat ticket...

Xiao Bai glanced at the open notebook again and found that it was filled with common sense about daily life.

It includes instructions on how to tie shoelaces, steps for buying tickets at the train station, and also highlights the importance of ID cards.

Xiaobai continued reading, and the whole article was full of things like how expensive boxed lunches are at train stations, how to prepare food in advance for the next train journey, how to buy sleeper tickets for longer train journeys, how to pay attention to the time of getting off the train, how to check your wallet every now and then when walking on the street, how delicious the grilled sausages next to the train station are, how cute the rabbit kept by a girl in the coffee shop next door is, and how taking a taxi in a sparsely populated area can avoid traffic jams, and so on.

The entries are fragmented and scattered, like some kind of diary, filled with Ella's curiosity about new things.

Could this be Ella's travel experience that she recorded this time?

Xiao Bai lowered his head, glanced over a long list of life experiences Ella had just acquired, and looked at the bottom of the notebook.

"Mom and Dad are right. Life is indeed difficult. Things that I thought would be simple have so many things I don't understand. The ship girls who have been taking care of me must have worked very hard. I should thank them properly when I get back."

Xiao Bai held the notebook in his hands and turned to look at Ella, who was sleeping soundly in bed.

While sleeping, Ella seemed to be thinking of something wonderful, snuggling under the covers and chuckling incessantly.

Xiao Bai put the train ticket back into the notebook, then looked at the small print all over the notebook, stood there thinking for a while, and finally, Xiao Bai took out a pen from her ship equipment space and added a sentence in the middle of the notebook.

After finishing writing, Xiaobai put the notebook back on the bedside table.

Turning his head, Xiaobai smiled at the sleeping Ella.

"Remember to close the door before you go to sleep next time."

Chapter 936 Hahahahahaha

After leaving Ella's room, Xiaobai subconsciously glanced at the window at the end of the corridor.

It seemed that after Xiaobai and Ella entered the fortress and obtained the key, the waitress outside finally let them in. At this time, the admirals who were playing cards outside the window had disappeared.

Xiao Bai glanced out the window and saw only an empty street. Beside the mottled walls, only the black-clad ship girl behind the tree was still peeking in their direction from time to time.

Xiaobai initially intended to pretend he hadn't seen the ship girl and simply return to his room.

However, at this moment, she saw the straightforward-looking waitress who had been at the fortress gate leave the gate and walk straight toward the ship girl behind the tree.

Out of curiosity, Xiaobai continued to observe the view outside the window.

The waitress walked up to the tree trunk, put her hands on her hips, pointed at the ship girls behind the tree, and was saying something.

Although Xiao Bai didn't understand what she was saying, judging from the waitress's expression, she was probably saying something like, "You've been standing here for too long, really. Please stop spying on the guests."

The ship girl behind the tree was clearly startled by the waitress who suddenly appeared behind her.

The black-clad ship girl shuddered, quickly turned around, and glanced back and forth between the window and the tree trunk in a flustered manner. Then, as if afraid that the presence of the waitress would expose her stealth, she waved nervously at the waitress.

Xiao Bai stared at the ship girl for a while, and from her lip movements, he realized that she was urging the waitress to mind her own business and leave quickly.

She even used a very arrogant and disdainful expression, baring her teeth and raising her fist at the waitress, as if to say something like she would hit her if she got in her way again.

The waitress, being such an open-minded person, seemed unable to understand the concept of tsundere and cuteness. Looking at the ship girl in front of her, a big tic-tac-toe mark instantly appeared on the waitress's fair forehead.

"oops!"

When Xiao Bai saw the angry symbol on the waitress's forehead, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Thinking back to the flying kick the waitress gave when she first appeared, Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat.

—This looks like a fight is about to break out.

Oh no!

This waitress seems to have a bad temper.

She's no match for a ship girl.

Seeing this, to avoid any bloodshed, Xiaobai quickly turned around and rushed towards the fortress gate, wanting to run out of the fortress and stop the two people.

Xiao Bai's footsteps faded away in the corridor.

Just after Xiaobai disappeared, outside the window at the end of the corridor, the black-clad ship girl, who had already lost patience with the waitress, pouted and got angry.

She seemed genuinely unwilling to be disturbed by the waitress. She raised her hand, her eyes flashing with the power to activate her ship's equipment, and pushed towards the waitress's body.

The power of ship girls is immense; even a destroyer can unleash a force comparable to a truck impact.

However, the black-clad ship girl seemed to have no ill intentions. She controlled her strength and did not use her full strength to push the waitress. Her only purpose was to make the person next to her who would expose her whereabouts leave, and it would be even better if she could make her fly backward and do a somersault to suffer a little loss.

The next second, the ship girl pushed her hands onto the waitress.

A whooshing sound emanated from the two people.

--Then.

——Nothing happened.

The black-clad ship girl looked up in surprise, gazing at the waitress in front of her.

The irritable young woman who had been shoved was looking down at the ship girl. The tic-tac-toe mark was still on her forehead. Under the raging flames, she smiled at the little girl in front of her with a very unfriendly expression.

The waitress opened her mouth.

It's as if it's saying, "You started this."

As she spoke, the waitress raised her left hand and slowly pressed it onto her right fist, pressing it once and twice.

bang.

bang.

When Xiaobai left the fortress and rushed to the tree outside the window, it was already too late.

Xiao Bai arrived at the scene and stared blankly at the sight before him.

The previously enraged waitress was now stretching out her arms, firmly supporting the black-clad ship girl who was shorter than her, spinning her around rapidly like a wrestling match performer.

The black-clad ship girl screamed helplessly, her entire body floating up due to the rapid spinning.

Its whooshing spinning sound was comparable to that of a propeller, standing out amidst the surrounding artillery fire.

Xiao Bai stared at the waitress with his mouth agape, somewhat incredulous.

Wow.

She won.

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the humanoid spinning top in front of him.

The spinning top was incredibly fast; a gentle breeze arose from the two spinning like tops and blew towards Xiaobai who was approaching.

The autumn wind swirls up fallen leaves.

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

"Ahhhhh, I was wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong la la la la la————"

"Yamete"

"Sister, please let me go!"

The ship girl, her afterimages already blurred, pleaded helplessly in mid-air.

However, the female employee at the spinning top center simply stood there laughing wildly.

"You won't eat the good stuff, you just eat the bad stuff, you insist on making me do it myself!!"

"Those who act suspiciously are definitely not doing good deeds!"

"Today I'm going to let you taste the power of justice!!"

"!!!"

"Hahahahahahaha"

Under Xiaobai's dumbfounded gaze, and amidst the black-clad ship girl's whimpering pleas for mercy, the waitress, with a hoarse voice, transformed into an emotionless spinning top, and flung the ship girl into the air amidst her screams.

The ship girl couldn't even beat her...

Did the ship girl not use her full strength?

The scene where the waitress held such a huge advantage left Xiaobai completely stunned.

Finally, the ship girl, who had been toyed with to the point of foaming at the mouth at any moment, was caught by the waitress who had just unleashed her entire ultimate attack and thrown back to the ground.

Both feet touched the ground.

The black-clad ship girl, her face ashen, sat down on the ground, seemingly suffering from severe motion sickness, dizzy and limp.

"Ugh ugh ugh ugh"

The black-clad ship girl lay prostrate on the ground, retching.

The outcome is already decided.

"Hmph, now you know how powerful I am, don't you?" The waitress put her hands on her hips, raised her chin, and said to the ship girls on the ground, "Tell me the truth, where did you come from, you little thief?"

The black-clad ship girl's gagging gradually stopped.

"..." The black-clad ship girl raised her head with a wronged expression, looking at the waitress with teary eyes, just like an innocent elementary school student who had been bullied.

"...Hey, acting cute is shameful."

The waitress frowned and spoke to the black-clad ship girl on the ground.

"...wuwuwu..."

The black-clad ship girl whimpered softly.

A look of utter helplessness, as if saying "Damn it, what do I do?" immediately appeared on the waitress's fair face. She frowned and looked around, not seeing any onlookers. Just as she relaxed and looked around again, she spotted the only onlooker, Xiaobai, behind her.

Upon seeing Xiaobai, the waitress was immediately taken aback.

"Holy crap, how did you..."

"Waaaaah!!!" Before the waitress could finish speaking, the ship girl in front of her covered her eyes and burst into tears.

The voice was incredibly mournful and aggrieved, as if a newly bought lollipop had been snatched away by a mean older sister and tossed into the air like a ball. It was heartbreaking and brought tears to the eyes of anyone who heard it.

"..." Xiao Bai covered his mouth, looking at the waitress with a gaze that seemed to say, "If possible, please stop bullying children and be a Buddha on the spot."

The waitress felt a severe blow to her psyche when Xiaobai looked at her like that.

She coughed, clutched her chest, and stomped her foot hard.

Therefore, moral blackmail is simply cultural dross.
