She stared at the girl's stiff expression in the mirror and waited for a long time before speaking again. "...Hello." The sentences were still toneless. The tone was obviously suitable for her age, with youth and cuteness, but it sounded a bit dry. I am the Colossus-class aircraft carrier Perseus. I don't have any achievements to boast about, but I will work hard. Please give me your guidance." ".. "This should be ok, right?" Perseus sighed and stopped staring at the mirror. The expression on his face became more relaxed and natural. "...Not yet, I've said hello..." ...It’s so difficult.” Gugu, who heard the noise, stretched his head out from the bedding that was piled up in an arch with a hole in the middle, and jumped over the railing of the middle bunk.
"Woo!" Perseus raised his hand and took the chubby owl into his arms, and gently smoothed the down feathers on its head with his index finger, "...I haven't greeted them yet." "Goo." "Well... I'm a little scared. If I say the wrong thing, it will... be more difficult in the future." "Although Commander Su is a very nice person, but...what if I make her angry?" "... the same goes for the others, I haven't even spoken to them..." Gugu gently nudged her fingers with his head, as if to express comfort, "Guwu..." "...Don't worry." Perseus pursed his lips, "After I practice for a while...I should be able to introduce myself to them properly." As she spoke, she gently hugged the owl, looked at the empty cubicle entrance, and then turned her attention back to the mirror, ready to continue her communication practice. But the usually well-behaved Gugu heard something and suddenly tried hard to squeeze out of her arms, flapping its wings and flying towards the aisle. "Gugu?!" Perseus was startled and hurriedly stood up by supporting himself on the table, only to hear a familiar voice coming from outside. "Ah... Gugu, are you here to greet me? Um... Thank you." "Goo~" "Is Sister Perseus in there?" Before she finished speaking, the black-haired little commander held Gugu and poked his head in, "Ah, Sister Perseus, um...can I come in?" Perseus silently put away the mirror, stood up straight again, and nodded slowly with a tense expression, "Okay..." Su Xin did not get too close, but just took a step from the aisle to the compartment, then stopped and looked up slightly at the Royal Light Aviation who was much taller than her. "Good afternoon... Gugu seems to like me very much. What does it usually eat? I'll keep some on me next time." Perseus kept reminding himself in his heart: "No metaphors, no metaphors, no metaphors", and then replied in a cold voice: "Grains of rice... or something like that." "Gu!"
Su Xin was stunned, and glanced at Gugu who was shaking his head in her arms, "Don't owls eat meat? Is it okay to feed it grains?" Perseus actually prepared a lot of dried insects and dried meat, but she was afraid that if she told it out loud it would scare Commander Su, so she just picked something that sounded more normal, but she didn't expect to be stabbed in the back by the bird in question. She held it in for a long time as she had no choice but to admit her mistake, "...I remembered it wrong." "Goo~" Perseus secretly glanced at Gugu who was nestled in the other's arms, but he didn't say much. After thinking about it, he simply helped Gugu to make a weight loss plan. Su Xin was actually quite embarrassed standing there. She was never good at being polite. This time, she only said a few words because of the presence of the owl. Now that the topic has been discussed, there is nothing else to talk about, so I just explain my purpose: "Well... I came here to invite you to a tea party..." "Ah, there aren't many people here, just a few sisters from the royal camp. They are very curious about you, but they don't want to scare you by being too abrupt, so they asked me to invite you..." The little commander held Gugu and asked anxiously, "Are you...are you willing to go?" Perseus is indeed under a lot of pressure, fearing that he might say something wrong and get disliked by others, but considering that he will have to meet everyone in the future, he might as well try to introduce himself at a tea party with few people. So she nodded hesitantly, "...I am willing." The small compartment actually couldn't seat many people, and one couldn't stay on the middle or upper bunks while drinking tea, so when Su Xin brought Perseus over, what she saw was the slightly crowded lower bunk. Hood, the leader of the tea party, and Befa, who was in charge of drinks and desserts, sat on the left and right sides of the bed; Guanghui, holding a javelin, sat in the middle with Sheffield. Royal Ark was sitting at the end of the bed near the door, and there was an empty seat opposite, which was probably reserved for the new Perseus. "Susu." Guanghui rested his chin on Javelin's shoulder, smiled at her and suggested, "There's not enough space. You may have to let Sheffield hold you." Perseus was stunned for a moment, thinking that he could sit in the aisle, but then he found that the young commander himself had no objection, so he nodded and sat on the maid's lap. "Perseus, huh?" Hood looked serious, and as if he was afraid of scaring people, he deliberately didn't sit up too straight. "Don't be nervous, I just want you to taste the dessert." Perseus nodded and sat down next to Sheffield with a cold face, but heard the other party say: "You are blocking my view." She was startled and stood up quickly, but her head hit the iron frame of the middle bunk, making a loud noise, which startled both Hood and Guanghui. "Ah... It must be very painful..." Javelin, who was immersed in Guanghui's arms, looked distressed with a bitter face. Su Xin was also stunned, and when she came to her senses, she quickly explained: "Are you...are you okay? Sister Sheffield was just joking with me...Don't be too nervous, sit down first and let me see if it's swollen." Sheffield had not expected this strange development. She just felt that the conductor's butt was sitting too far forward, causing uneven force on her and causing discomfort in her knees. "No...it's okay. It's like hitting tofu to me." Everyone was stunned by this type of answer for the first time. They all looked at the iron shelf that was recessed in the middle of the floor and said, "...That's true." After Perseus returned to its position, Befa smoothly made a few cups of black tea, handed them to Hood, Su Xin, Guanghui and Javelin first, and then made a cup of coffee for Royal Ark, then turned around and asked. "Gui'an, would you like some tea, coffee, or a glass of whiskey?" "Black tea... will be fine." "OK, wait."
Perseus straightened his body and waited until he took the cup of black tea and took a sip. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and looked up to find that Hood, who was sitting across from him, was staring at him for some reason. She panicked again, not sure if it was because of her lack of etiquette or if something else went wrong. Guanghui smiled, "Hood just wanted to ask you how black tea tastes? After all, it is her favorite drink." Perseus was stunned, and quickly replied: "It's...very delicious, as pure and sweet as the melting snow in early spring..." "As long as you like it." Hood's expression relaxed, he nodded, and silently curled the corners of his lips. The atmosphere in the compartment has relaxed a lot. It seems that Perseus knows that everyone is easy to get along with. His state is not as nervous as when he first came in. Seeing that the momentum was good, Su Xin reached out and gently tapped Perseus's arm, "Well... Sister Perseus, why don't you introduce yourself?" Perseus pursed his lips and found that everyone was looking at him with either curiosity or encouragement, so he mustered up the courage to say the lines he had practiced countless times. "Hello everyone, I am the Royal Colossus-class aircraft carrier - Perseus. Although I have no achievements worth boasting about in history, in the days to come, I... I will try my best to get along well with everyone..." "Welcome, welcome~ Sister Perseus, your owl is so cute, can I borrow your javelin to take a look?" "Welcome, I'm Hood, this is Glory, Javelin, Ark Royal, Belfast, and Sheffield. Get to know each other better." "Haha, don't be nervous. You can just call me Sister Guanghui. Hood is not as serious as you think." Perseus was stunned for a moment, and foolishly let Belfa refill her cup, then she responded with a small sound while holding the warm porcelain cup. "Hmm... Thank you. Please advise me..." Chapter 510 New Friend 3 "In fact, Belfast has only just joined our port area." Befa, who had refilled the plate of small cakes for Javelin, nodded and looked at the slightly reserved Perseus, "About a week to be exact." Hood took a sip of tea and said, "She's adapting well now, so you don't have to worry too much. If you have any questions, you can come to us." "Okay, thank you..." After Perseus finished speaking, he sat down at the end of the bed obediently. It seemed that he had no intention of speaking again, which made the atmosphere a little solemn. Neither of the two maids spoke much, and Su Xin wasn't good at finding topics to talk about. As for the Royal Ark... forget it. Hood looked at Guanghui helplessly, then looked at the javelin nestled in the other's arms, trying to find out if anyone else had any way to liven up the atmosphere. Javelin was the youngest among the group, so she understood the young people's topics better. She rolled her eyes and started praising "Sister Perseus, your skirt is so beautiful... Is it part of the ship's uniform?" Perseus, who had calmed down a lot after drinking two cups of tea, was suddenly called out. He was a little panicked, but fortunately he did not do the same "colliding" behavior as before and seemed to be much more at ease. "Yes." She clenched her chin, making her face look rounder, much like the dazed Gugu in her arms, "I've been wearing... this all the time. "Hmm... I'm a little envious. Javelin's clothes are very ordinary. I obviously want a dress like Guanghui's and yours..." Hearing this, Perseus subconsciously looked at the opposite shop. Guanghui's skirt seemed to have some similarities with hers, including the material used and the black lace design added to the hem. This kind of dress is beautiful, but it will affect movement a little, and the fabric is also relatively transparent... She might as well say that she prefers the solid fabric of the javelin.
So Perseus thanked him sincerely, but nothing happened next. However, this was not the answer that Javelin wanted. She complimented Perseus's clothes in order to get closer to him. After all, no one would be disgusted by compliments, and maybe they could even make an appointment to go shopping for clothes together. I have always done this when I was with other girls, so why did this trick that always worked fail today? After thinking about it, the clever Javelin came up with a new idea. "Um... Sister Perseus, how about you try to describe your first impression of us?" "Like me, when we first met, I thought Sister Hood was a fierce senior, Sister Sheffield was a cool agent, and Sister Glory was very gentle." "Sister Beifa knows everything. If the commander is a piece of wood, then the sister of the Royal Ark... Javelin paused, "Maybe he's a pervert?" Guanghui, who was holding her, laughed twice, raised his hand and pinched Javelin's soft face, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about." "Hehehe...Sister Royal Ark has changed her appearance and become a new person...The Expulsion Sisters like her very much now!" After lifting her bangs to reveal her eyes, Royal Ark did look quite decent. She was very excited when she heard Javelin's affirmation of her, but she managed to control her emotions and only said in a muffled voice: "I will keep working hard!" Javelin snorted and looked at Perseus with a girl's tenderness, "The first time I met you, sister, I felt that you must be a good person." "It's great to have such a cute owl, such a beautiful dress, and beautiful pink hair. Although she doesn't talk much, she must be a gentle person!" "I want to be closer to Sister Perseus in the future, buy clothes, play games, and talk a lot together! Um... I don't think it will bother you, right? Hehe..." This was the first time Perseus heard someone evaluate him in this way. It was so beautiful that it was unbelievable. Therefore, he blushed a little and became bolder. "Thank you... I don't want to bother you. I'd rather say you're... very welcome." "That's good~" Javelin smiled brightly, and was even happier when he received a pat on the head as a reward of glorious praise. He took this opportunity to ask, "What about you? What did you think of me when you first met me?" Perseus paused and thought for a moment, "... like a bird on a branch in the morning, very... active?" "Wow... Then my image must be lively and cute? Hehe~ What about Sister Hood?" "...A steady senior." Hood silently drank the cold tea and thought, "Seniors are pretty good, and there are some very young ones too... Come to think of it, I don't look that old, do I?" "Oh~ Sister Guanghui?" "...Mother Duck?" Perseus was stunned for a moment after saying this, and hurriedly added: "It's...very motherly...image." "Haha, don't be so nervous." Guanghui chuckled and rubbed Javelin's head. "Sometimes I feel like a mother with a child. Mother duck is quite descriptive, right? Little duck?" Javelin was also very suitable for the face, and responded: "It's very suitable!" Perseus then breathed a sigh of relief and continued answering to the rhythm of the javelin. "Sister Sheffield?" "Um... hedgehog?"
Sheffield: ,,6_6,,? "What about Sister Befa?" “Very responsible…” Belfast: Medium (°v°*) "Is that so... Where's the Royal Ark sister?" "...A reliable senior?"
