"You...eh?" The gaze pressing on him suddenly lightened, and Tiancheng tightened his arms in satisfaction. He no longer tried to provoke the shy little commander, but looked at Frederick confidently. "I am very satisfied with this answer, my lovely Susu." "...Woo." Chapter 716: How Mother and Daughter Get Along This bathing activity ended with Su Xin's body overheating and she ran away on the spot. Frederick the Great had no reason to stay in the bath any longer, so he just looked up at Amagi, who was still smiling, and left with a thoughtful look on his face. Dunkirk and Louis IX looked over with some concern, but Tiancheng shook his head to comfort them, "It's okay, as long as Susu expresses her opinion, she will have to change her attitude, so don't worry too much." After Tiancheng explained, he turned to Veneto and Jean Bart and said, "Well... let's exchange contact information. If there is anything you are not clear about, you can always ask me." Veneto, who was always thinking about building good relationships, readily agreed to the suggestion, but she had just come out of the device and had not had time to buy a mobile phone.
Tiancheng had obviously anticipated this, one box per person, and the appearance was small and simple, not outstanding enough, but also the type that could not be wrong. "Use it for now. If you don't like it, how about you choose it yourself after Su Su receives the advance salary?" Veneto naturally agreed, and his favorability towards Tiancheng and the young commander increased several levels. However, Jean Bart looked at Tiancheng for a long time before he spoke slowly. "Pirates are good at plundering, not accepting charity. If there is anything you want me to do, just tell me." "I don't really want to force you to do anything." Tiancheng smiled and said casually, "I just hope you can help look after the commander occasionally." Jean Bart looked at Tiancheng for a while, then took the box and turned it on with some awkwardness. "...Humph, it's just a small matter." After Su Xin went out, she went straight to the dormitory. The warm and wet feeling on her earlobe still remained, and she needed to go home and relax. As for Frederick the Great, after Tiancheng's deliberate suggestion, the young commander also felt tired belatedly. It was indeed very stressful to be with Frederick. Apart from the physical height difference, his tone, rhythm and choice of words all gave off a feeling of being favored by a superior, which made her a little uncomfortable. It doesn’t matter if you call her “Emperor Mommy” or “Emperor Mommy” in your previous life. The game characters will never come out to talk to you face to face. (Is it okay to say that I hope so?) But now, after personally meeting him, Su Xin discovered that anyone who dared to speak sweet words in front of the emperor could really be called a "warrior". "Where are you going, my child?" The gentle voice behind him was so rhythmic that it gave goose bumps to the little conductor who was walking with his head down. He turned around and looked over, "Ah... Sister Frederick, aren't you going to wash anymore?" Frederick was wearing high-heeled boots and looking down at the little one with his face raised up. The rosy complexion and delicate, round, soft eyes were what she liked. "I'm not interested in baths per se." The implication was that he was interested in someone. The commander, with a sore neck, swallowed his saliva. He was not afraid, but just a little at a loss. Before the construction, she thought that Frederick the Great was an easy-going person, and that after it was built, she would be safe and everything would be fine.
But after making it, she found that things were far from as simple as she had imagined. It was probably impossible to accurately guess a person's personality based on the game voice alone. Seeing that the little guy was silent, Frederick raised his hand and gently pinched his cheek, "Child, are you feeling stressed?" "Well... to be honest, it is a little bit...?" "It seems that she is right. We may need some time to get to know each other better." The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and simply squatted down. "Do you... want to see farther?" "...Huh?" "Look at the scenery I usually see." Su Xin understood that he was going to carry her on his back for two laps. To be honest, she was indeed looking forward to such a height, so she nodded. Seeing the genuine curiosity and request in the other's eyes, Frederick felt relieved and immediately grabbed the little commander's armpit and lifted him off the ground. Then, with Su Xin's cute exclamation like a little animal, he turned her over, propped her up over his head, and let her sit on his shoulders with her legs apart. My head was suddenly held by a pair of hands, and there was a squeezing feeling on both sides of my neck, which was caused by the tense thigh muscles. It was a bit uncomfortable, but it was also a proof of closeness. "Don't be afraid, my child. Hold on to the horns and you will be safe. Open your eyes and see the world as I see it." After all, Su Xin was not a real child, so it was a little inconvenient for her to sit on the emperor's shoulders, but this did not affect her interest. After ignoring the friction between her legs, suppressing her concerns about the firmness of her horns, and not paying attention to her ankles being caught, she saw a wonderful view at a height of more than two and a half meters. It seems that you can change the light bulb of a street lamp by just stretching out your hand, and it seems that you can reach the birds on the branches by straightening your waist. The usually cute Manchu has become a plush doll that is no bigger than a fist. The ship girls who line up in the distance to buy equipment no longer need her to look up at them. She could even see the owl Gugu, who was battling wits with a remote-controlled airplane in the sky far away. "Wow... Sister, come on, come on, let's go to the sports field." Frederick the Great noticed the relaxed atmosphere between the two, and knew what attitude he should use to make the other party let down his guard, so he was in a good mood and responded to every request. "Well, then you have to sit tight, my child. Which way should we go to the playground?" "Eh? Ah, right, right. Hmm, that's great. I can introduce you to the port area. But if you get tired, remember to put me down." Frederick smiled without answering, turned around and walked to the right. This was the first time Su Xin received such a wonderful treatment. In fact, it felt a bit like driving a robot. You could clearly know which leg she was stepping with and could feel the vibration generated when she walked. Step by step, neither fast nor slow, the slight shaking makes the experience more real, although it is a little awkward. Su Xin didn't quite dare to hold on to the two scarlet horns. She knew how strong her hands were and was afraid that she would lose her balance and break the horns, which would be a serious sin. This feeling is like buying an ultra-thin mobile phone. You know it is guaranteed to be strong, but you are still worried about breaking it. You even have a strange urge to try it out. "Although I can certainly break a cell phone easily..." Frederick the Great seemed to have guessed it, and did not try to persuade him. Instead, he quickened his pace. The shaking became more intense, and the little conductor, who was sitting on the shoulders and had difficulty finding his center of gravity, felt it even more clearly, and subconsciously held the two horns in front of him.
Frederick did not stop, and even jogged, "Hold on tight, my child. If you fall, you will never have a chance to get up again." "...Um!" Chapter 717 Your Name Nagato was very curious about Commander Su Xin, who was highly regarded by everyone. I heard that he is a good kid, very considerate of the ship girls, generous, not too fussy about gains and losses, and very good at fighting. He is probably the only one in the entire human race who is so strong. Nagato can understand the first few points. Personal charm is quite common. Just like herself, she also admires Mikasa, the former flagship of the Combined Fleet. But the last one is a little intriguing. What does "the only powerful force in the whole human race" mean? In Nagato's understanding, humans who can fight are usually big, with arms as thick as her legs, because strength is the basis of power. Although it is difficult to compare ninjutsu, martial arts and the like, this is obviously true in most cases. But when Nagato looked at this young commander just now, it seemed that he was only a little taller than himself? And he was very thin. No matter how he looked at him, he looked like the kind of girl who couldn't even open a bottle cap. If this can be called [the only power in the whole human race], it is only if she is the reincarnation of a ship girl. Shokaku smiled and said nothing, acting mysterious, which made Nagato even more curious. However, before visiting the commander, she had to get to know her family first. "Can you introduce them to me? Although I know everyone's name, but..." "Of course, I came here for this matter." Shokaku waved to his sister Zuikaku, "This is my sister Zuikaku. I usually speak casually, so please bear with me." "Nagato-sama, sister, what are you talking about? I just greeted you but you didn't respond to me..." "Just call me Nagato. Now I'm no longer the flagship of the camp, so there's no need to...well, Shokaku is introducing everyone to me." Nagato smiled faintly, a little melancholy. Shokaku saw through it and secretly pinched his tactless sister, then continued speaking in the face of her puzzled look. "I just mentioned Izumo over there. He is one of the design plans for the Yamato class. He is...should I say he is quite stubborn, or rather abiding by the martial arts...it depends on your understanding." Nagato looked towards Izumo. Her posture as she leaned against the shore was indeed rather unrestrained. Unlike the other ship girls who were reserved, she opened her heart and closed her eyes to rest. She might have been drunk from drinking just now. "The heavy cruiser Ibuki next to it is also a ship that has never been seen. I heard that she is good at torpedo attacks, but I rarely see her in action on the training ground." Ibuki, who was wringing a towel to apply to Izumo's forehead, was at another extreme. He seemed to be too shy. Even in the pool, he shyly covered his key parts. It was easy to tell that he was a shy person. "The black-haired light cruiser who just came in is Yubari. He was once a world-famous researcher. After retirement, he joined the port area and is now responsible for the production and development of equipment for sale." Yubari is actually quite easy to recognize, mainly because of the dark circles under her eyes. As a ship girl, she can be like this, obviously her daily routine is extremely chaotic Nagato silently took note of this in his heart, and planned to find a chance to talk to the other person after they moved in together, so as to avoid becoming a national treasure of Donghuang next door. "The other black-haired heavy cruiser is Atago. Her presence seems to be rather weak. Maybe she wants to completely change her image?" "Image? What do you mean..." "...She drugged the commander before, supposedly so she could stay with him longer." Nagato's eyes widened, obviously frightened. After all, based on his observations over the past period of time, Atago seemed to be a quiet and gentle woman.
"This is a little... beyond my expectation..." Nagato murmured as he looked at Atago who was smiling and nodding at him. Xianghe didn't take it seriously. Are they scared? Apart from the two profiteers and a few kids who weren't present, which of the remaining two aircraft carriers is the most capable? "...The fight over there is the highlight of today. You should have seen Taiho's personality outside just now. As for Akagi-senpai..." "...What happened to her?" Nagato asked curiously. Shokaku smiled, "She single-handedly made everyone hate her existence. Even though she has changed for the better now, who knows when she will do it again?" Nagato was a little hesitant, and then he saw Shokaku, who was introducing himself seriously just now, suddenly took out a camera, and started recording while Ibuki was trying to avoid it with a red face, while he endured the two of them. "So, I have to take on the role of guidance." Zuikaku was a little embarrassed and pulled Nagato closer, "Excuse me, when my sister meets Akagi-senpai, she becomes a little...excited?" "I, I understand..." Nagato looked around and asked, "Where's Amagi? He was still here just now, right?" "Ah... I don't know either. Maybe she left earlier?" Zuikaku scratched his head. It was obvious that he didn't pay much attention to anyone other than his sister. "So I can leave at any time?" Nagato thought for a moment and simply stood up. "In that case, I will leave first." "Eh? Don't you want to take another bath? I feel pretty comfortable." "The commander said before that I can come anytime, so I don't mind taking this time. I want to go see the commander first and take a look at the port area." Zuikaku is not a very smart person and has no intention of following Nagato. After watching him leave, he leaned close to his sister and watched her happily taking pictures. Nagato changed her clothes and left the bathhouse first. She felt it was impolite to disturb others taking a bath, so she planned to walk around the port area first and then look for the commander after he came out. Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I saw a familiar person in the distance. He was more than two meters high in the air, clinging to the branches and looking into the distance. "Flying Head Barbarian?" Nagato was startled and after looking carefully he discovered that there was someone supporting him from underneath. Since the young commander has come out, she can go and talk to him to get to know him better. So Nagato took a step and walked towards Su Xin. As she got closer, she heard the other person's excited voice, "I've always wanted to see a bird's nest and see what the birds inside look like, but I've only heard the sound. Today I finally saw it with my own eyes!" "Haha, as long as you like it, is there anything else you are curious about?" "Hmm? No, I tried the dunk, scared Ning Hai, and now I saw the chicks, that's enough... Eh? Is that Nagato?" Nagato and the little commander looked at each other, nodded reservedly, and quickened their pace. When she arrived, Su Xin had already gotten off Frederick's shoulders. "Nagato, are you here to see me?" "Yes, I heard everyone speak highly of you, so I wanted to get to know you myself." "Oh~ Then how do you want to get to know me? Um... do you want to ask me a question?" Su Xin asked back with a smile, obviously in a good mood. Nagato actually had no special intention, she just wanted to chat with the other party, but when she observed closely, she suddenly found the red magatama hanging around the other party's neck. "This is….."
"...Huh? Can you...see [her]?" "I know a thing or two about spiritual communication." Nagato closed his eyes and raised his hand, gently touching the shiny surface of the magatama with his fingertips. "Her name is... Suzuka, Yura's predecessor (Note 1), and also... a demon girl who is good at supernatural powers and swordsmanship." "Suzuka Gozen." (Note 2) 【Photo: Yura/Suzuka-wiki】 ps: Note 1: The original planned name of the Sakura Empire's heavy cruiser Yura was Suzuka.
