After they stared at each other for a while, Wang Yu finally gave in helplessly.
This round is your win, Da Jia Jia!
I always feel that Da Jia Jia lacks common sense even more than York; I thought chuunibyou was already difficult enough to handle.
Now there's Da Jia Jia, such a steel straight woman; this direct punch completely knocked me, the Commander, down.
He could only earnestly say, "Da Jia Jia, not everyone can maintain high-efficiency work status all the time like you."
"Normal Commanders will feel tired and unable to concentrate after continuous work. At this time, they need good rest and the Secretary Ship's thoughtful care, not to be urged to continue working."
Is, is that so?
Gascogne instinctively felt something was wrong.
What the Commander said seemed to make some sense, but comparing it with the data in her database, her master's current working hours seemed far from reaching the standard for fatigue.
And aren't I performing the duties of a Secretary Ship?
Why is the Commander teaching me how to do things?
Then what's the point of the Secretary Ship's Code of Conduct?
So...
"Master, you're just trying to be lazy, aren't you?"
Da Jia Jia is cute, but she's not easy to fool...
Could it be that, as York said, I'm actually a foolish Commander?
Forget it, at times like this, I'll just exercise the Commander's privilege directly!
"Alright," Wang Yu waved his hands, neatly adding a batch of children's toys and brandy to the port's material procurement list, and directly signed his name.
He didn't care if Gascogne had any objections and immediately struck while the iron was hot, saying, "Alright, Da Jia Jia, let's put aside the matter of whether the Commander is being lazy for now. First, tell me about the situation in our port. I need to understand the port's situation. Is there anyone who has something they particularly want to tell me... like, 'missing the Commander terribly' kind of words."
Everyone misses the Commander terribly.
Gascogne looked at Wang Yu's strange smiling face; there was a record of this kind of smile in her database... defined as shameless!
"No, everything in the port is fine. All members of the port ask Gascogne to convey their greetings to her master."
Well, that was as good as saying nothing.
Right, who would ask Gascogne, this silent person, to relay a message? She can't even sort things out for herself, let alone help others sort them out?
"Forget it, Gascogne, didn't I ask you to familiarize yourself with the port's various situations before? You've been by my side almost constantly, so you haven't seen what the port is like, have you?"
Glorious is stationed at the Command Center, responsible for monitoring the sea area and external communications. Gascogne has taken over Glorious's previous work, as if the Secretary Ship has been replaced.
"As the master's Secretary Ship, Gascogne's greatest duty is to be by the master's side and share all his burdens."
Secretary Ship, right, Gascogne is the Secretary Ship.
Wang Yu felt a sinking feeling in his heart, finally realizing what was wrong.
After crossing over, Glorious naturally became his Secretary Ship, and he didn't feel anything was amiss. Moreover, Glorious had always subtly reinforced her identity as Secretary Ship in front of him.
There was nothing wrong with this; after all, Glorious had used her Secretary Ship identity to help Wang Yu solve many problems at Headquarters before.
Without Glorious, his Secretary Ship, helping him, he probably wouldn't have even left the Headquarters' main gate by now.
So Glorious is fine, but Gascogne, why are you also directly claiming the identity of Secretary Ship?
Although it's not a big deal, logically, shouldn't the Secretary Ship's identity be appointed by me, the Commander?
But how do I feel that after I just had a nap, you two directly arranged everything for me so clearly...
Does the Secretary Ship's Code of Conduct even teach this?
"Gascogne strictly adheres to the Secretary Ship's Code of Conduct requirements, please rest assured, master!" Gascogne replied with an unchanging expression, enunciating each word.
This rhetoric... So if it's not written in the Secretary Ship's Code of Conduct, it doesn't need to be followed, is that it?
What exactly is written in there? Let me see!
"Master, this is a top-secret document, inconvenient to disclose..."
I thought that even if the port raised a rebellion, Gascogne, you would be the only one who would steadfastly follow me!
But I didn't expect you to be the leader of the rebels!
What happened to always obeying the master's commands?
Is it true that the Secretary Ship's power is infinite, and the Commander's power is only to appoint the Secretary Ship...
No, I probably, should, maybe don't even have that right anymore...
Lust is a double-edged sword; after a Secretary Ship becomes a wife, she can do anything out of line. Young Commanders must be careful!
Maintaining a pure heart at all times is the key to strength; I've already lost my chance.
This can be recorded in the Commander's Code of Conduct to educate future generations.
If it were Ship Girls like Akagi or Da Feng, he wouldn't be surprised if they tried to forcefully seize the Secretary Ship's identity from Wang Yu.
After all, these yanderes have too strong an possessiveness towards their Commander; he wouldn't believe it if they didn't thoroughly 'handle' the Commander after taking the Secretary Ship's position.
But Gascogne is different!
Gascogne is just a naive girl who believes whatever the Commander says. This way of rushing to establish her status right from the start is definitely not right!
I don't know if it was taught by Dunzi or conspired by Glorious, or if York is just good, simple, and cute.
No wonder so many Commanders like destroyers. These simple and cute little girls don't have so many hidden motives. Their eyes are full of love and adoration for the Commander, and they often ask for kisses and hugs. They are simply too thoughtful; they are all little angels.
However, it seems York has always been with Glorious, even closer than to him, the Commander. She's almost become Glorious's little fangirl...
It shouldn't... be, right?
In this vast port, I'm all alone!
"You've already inspected the port? When did that happen?" Gascogne had barely left his side for the past two days, yet she had already seen the port, and even inspected it...
"Gascogne performs night patrols every night to ensure the safety of the port. Please rest assured, Commander!"
Every night! How can I rest assured?
You'll be the next port legend!
The never-sleeping blue ghost, appearing in the empty midnight, wandering within the port, bringing fear to people...
"Rest? Gascogne has multiple operating modes. With multiple modes switching, there's no need for rest in the lowest efficiency mode!"
The girl slightly raised her chin, with a hint of pride in her tone, seemingly very proud of possessing multiple operating modes.
"Alright, Gascogne, this point is indeed unique." Wang Yu affirmed Gascogne's excellent performance. The girl's perpetually unchanging face seemed to have undergone some change.
Her lips seemed to curl slightly? I shouldn't have seen wrong!
"But rest is still necessary. Even normally, there should be some time for free activity!"
"Free activity? Gascogne doesn't understand what needs to be done..."
A trace of confusion flashed in the girl's eyes. Didn't she just need to obey her master's commands?
