"Master didn't even remember that today is the Duanwu Festival. That's really strange. Every time we celebrated the Duanwu Festival before, Master would organize various activities in the port."
Amagi lowered her head slightly in thought for a moment, as if recalling those joyous festival times: "Back then, no matter what everyone had to deal with, they would put it aside. Everyone would gather together and happily spend the entire festival. Recalling it now, it was really lively."
Amagi chuckled at the end, as if those happy memories were still vivid.
Rather than saying he remembered the Duanwu Festival, it was more like the game's official developers remembered it.
The activities were also organized by the officials, but currently, all the Ship Girls in the port seem to believe that he particularly likes these festivals and wants to celebrate every festival like the Duanwu Festival.
"Anyway, they are all Master's festivals. After all, Master is also from Eastern Radiance, and there's nothing wrong with liking to celebrate his own country's festivals. Of course, everyone also likes it... because everyone likes things they can do with Master."
Amagi's eyes held a look of reminiscence, then she spoke again: "But now Master has completely forgotten this day. I thought Master was the one who cared most about these festivals in the entire port."
"Haha, I've just been too busy lately."
Wang Yu laughed awkwardly twice: "You see, first there was a Siren fleet attack, then I was busy with Pennsylvania for almost a day. I accidentally forgot about these festivals."
The people of White Eagle didn't have a tradition of celebrating this festival, and the Royal and Vichy Church were the same. Plus, everyone was very busy now, so no one had reminded Wang Yu that today was the Duanwu Festival.
He looked up at the window, where the bright moon hung high, and Wang Yu couldn't help but feel a moment of trance.
He finally realized again that he was no longer in his previous world, but this was something he had already accepted. He just didn't know why, when he suddenly thought of this festival at this time, he would still feel a sense of loss. This feeling came from nowhere, lingering in his heart and refusing to leave...
"Master, what are you thinking about? Are you missing someone else?"
Perhaps noticing the change in Wang Yu's expression, Amagi asked curiously.
"It's not that I miss anything else. I'm already very satisfied with you all by my side. It's just some things, well, I don't particularly care about them, but once I think that I can never go back, I still feel a little lost. This might just be being overly sentimental!"
"Perhaps Master doesn't want to possess those things, but merely wants the right to choose."
"Perhaps!" Wang Yu thought about it. It seemed to be true. Compared to whether he could go back or not, what he cared more about was whether he could go back. Of course, even if the opportunity truly presented itself, how would he choose?
"I thought Master was missing other companions in the port, but it seems that's not the case. It looks like Master still has many things hidden in his heart. However," Amagi extended her empty left hand, waved it in front of Wang Yu, then retracted it, gently pressing her slender hand against her chest, making Wang Yu's heart pound.
"Amagi also has many things hidden in her heart. Does Master want to see them?"
I, I don't want to! I really don't want to! Glorious's warning seemed to still echo in his ears, and Wang Yu's tears were about to fall...
Before Wang Yu could answer, Amagi suddenly coughed twice, and gently pushed Wang Yu: "Master, don't forget that you still have other things to finish. It's better to deal with them early and then rest. Staying up too late is not good for your health, cough cough..."
After speaking, she coughed twice again. Wang Yu stood up, looking at Amagi, who was constantly covering her mouth and lightly coughing, and asked with a slight worry: "Amagi, is your body really okay? Although it's summer now, it's still very cool at night. Do you want to put on more clothes?"
He didn't know how to care for Ship Girls, so he could only say such clumsy words. After all, Amagi kept coughing, which made him a little worried, and she was dressed too lightly...
"Cough cough..." Amagi coughed lightly twice again: "Master, don't worry. Actually, Amagi's body is not in any serious condition. It's just that it seems in everyone's impression, Amagi should be this frail, sickly appearance, so there's no way around it. This habit has never changed, and unconsciously it has become like this."
Ship Girls are miraculous products born from humanity's beautiful wishes, and naturally, they are influenced by human thoughts.
In everyone's impression, Amagi's keel was completely damaged in an earthquake, making it impossible to repair. So, after her sisters were refitted into aircraft carriers, that is, after Akagi and the others were converted into carriers, only Amagi was completely dismantled.
Therefore, in everyone's impression, Amagi seems to be such a delicate young girl, and 'a beauty with a tragic fate' refers to Amagi. So the Amagi that is built is also like this; even as strong as a Ship girl, she will still have some minor ailments.
"Alright," Wang Yu could only nod. After all, he knew that the bodies of Ship Girls were not the same as normal people's. No matter how fragile Amagi looked now, her physical fitness must be far superior to humans. His concern was indeed too much.
Amagi watched Wang Yu slowly walk up the escalator, gradually disappearing from sight, and his footsteps gradually faded until they could no longer be heard.
She silently extended her left hand, looked at her empty fingers, sighed slightly, and then picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank it all.
The slight intoxication hit her brain, and her eyes became a little hazy.
Master, you have always been in Amagi's heart. This has never changed. Even after so long, even if Master seems to have changed a little now, Amagi's heart has never changed.
After all, she didn't know when, but Master had already become inseparable from her heart.
She couldn't even remember why she liked him, perhaps during those countless combat sorties, or during the countless days and nights in the port. In short, that person was imprinted in her heart, so irresistibly.
Amagi drank the last bit of sake from the bottle, and she finally felt the drunkenness. In a daze, Master seemed to still be by her side...
"Master, Amagi will keep waiting. Why will I wait? Because love can withstand the long years..."
...
Wang Yu hurried into the office, skillfully finding the few unfinished documents in his memory and reading them carefully.
He read and pondered, occasionally writing a few notes. Unconsciously, time slowly passed. He looked up at the clock; it had already been over an hour, almost 12 o'clock.
"It got so late! I thought there wasn't much to do." Wang Yu straightened up and stretched. Today's tasks were finally all completed.
He pushed open the door and looked out, finding that the light at the end of the corridor had been extinguished at some point. Wang Yu smiled slightly, ready to return to his room to rest.
Glorious lay on Wang Yu's bed, wondering if Commander would come back tonight? Had he gone to someone else's place? Commander couldn't be that eager, could he...?
Gascogne listened as Commander's footsteps gradually approached, stopping in the room opposite, and silently lowered her eyes...
The night was still long.
