Elder brother's garrison

Page 2036

"You...you must do your best..." The ship girls pondered for a long time, their eyes filled with difficulty, but in the end they still cautiously encouraged Nia.

"???"

Nia looked completely bewildered.

……

"Oh? Admiral Lu Lin, you smell so good today."

"Wow, the Admiral smells like Akagi-neechan!"

"Admiral Lu Lin, good morning... Huh?"

"..."

On her way to repair the bathhouse, the ship girls who encountered her along the way all raised their hands to greet her warmly.

Most of the ship girls are girls with keen senses. They often notice something different about Xiaobai as soon as they say the first word to him.

Therefore, the way the ship girls looked at Shiro was as if they had glimpsed Shiro's private life, and they all became quite excited.

Xiaobai moved through the ship girls like a guinea pig crossing the street. She ran into the repair bath, hurriedly changed her clothes in the changing room, and then plunged headfirst into the pool full of hot repair fluid.

wow-

The empty repair pool rippled.

The water temperature in the repaired bathtub was just right.

Little White submerged its body underwater and held its breath for several minutes before surfacing.

"Puhaha—"

Xiao Bai, panting and blushing, looked around the bathtub with an extremely embarrassed expression.

Xiao Bai raised its arm and sniffed it carefully.

The rich fragrance of osmanthus seemed to cling to Xiaobai's skin, and even with the rinsing of the repair solution, it showed no signs of being washed away for a while.

Xiao Bai remembered that Kaga from the Deep Sea had once told him that Akagi's body scent had a very strong ability to adhere. Even if it was a reef in the sea, Akagi would gradually absorb the scent if she sat on it for a long time. Furthermore, if it was a medium like a piece of cloth that could absorb her scent for a long time, it would only take one night for Akagi to be in close contact with it to create a powerful effect on the cloth that was almost like a permanent enchantment.

Xiao Bai looked at his palm, his face turning red and then burning purple.

"This is really awkward..."

In the empty, restorative bath, Xiaobai's shy voice echoed forlornly.

……

at the same time.

a long distance away.

In the main residence of the newbie garrison.

Dressed in a maid outfit, Fukami Kaga picked up a green hat and put it on her head.

"Shinkai Kaga, what are you doing?" Kamikaze asked, one hand on his hip, looking at Shinkai Kaga with a puzzled expression.

“…A strange hat.” Kaga Fukami pointed to the green hat on his head and said to Kamikaze.

"A green hat... how can it not be strange?" Kamikaze shrugged helplessly. "This is a cosplay outfit used only during the naval base's Halloween costume party. Don't touch it now."

“Hmm—” Kaga Fukami took off his hat and hung it back on the coat rack.

"Speaking of which, do you know what being cuckolded means in human society?" Kamikaze looked at Kaga Akami and suddenly asked her as if he had just thought of something.

"?"

"Hehe, that means your loved one has been cheated on by someone else!" Kamikaze covered his ample chest and said to Shinmi Kaga with a deeply affectionate look, "Do you understand? It's very painful to have your loved one taken away, so people in human society are generally quite averse to being cuckolded!"

"Hmm." Kaga Shinmi nodded in response to Kamikaze's words, and then took the green hat off the coat rack again and put it on Kamikaze's head.

"...Why are you putting this on me?" Kamikaze stared blankly at Shinmi Kaga.

"Aren't you in pain?" Deep Sea Kaga asked rhetorically.

Why should I suffer?

"...You like the Admiral."

"That hurts, that hurts!" Kamikaze threw the green hat off her head back onto the coat rack, then picked up a broom and angrily protested to Abyssal Kaga, "You, you, you, you—how can you talk so viciously, even more so than Savoy! What do you mean by 'stealing someone'? I'm going to be the Admiral's sister's marriage ship sooner or later! Don't you know the value of a big sister's figure?! Everyone in the naval base says the Admiral's sister especially likes my type! The Admiral's sister and I will be together sooner or later, and then everyone in this naval base will have to call me 'concubine'! I wasn't 'stolen' from someone, I just haven't made my move yet! Don't you understand, blah blah blah…"

Kamikaze started chattering incessantly, as if a switch had been flipped.

They seem to be in a hurry.

Kaga from the Deep Sea blinked.

Looking at Kamikaze's exasperated state, Kaga Shinkai felt a strange mix of embarrassment and a strange sense of amusement.

After having someone you like... does everyone become like this?

It seems that after falling in love with the Admiral, Akagi from the Deep Sea would occasionally keep saying this to herself. And when she asked her what it felt like to fall in love with the Admiral, she would always scratch her head with a half-smile and tell herself that she didn't understand yet, but one day she would suddenly understand.

She wasn't like this before.

Kaga Shinmi turned his head to look at the clothes on the coat rack.

The clothes on the coat rack were colorful.

The sound of the divine wind in Kaga's ears grew fainter and fainter.

Kaga's gaze began to wander.

Once I finally understand... will I find someone I like?

Could it be... that he's also an admiral?

……

Chapter 2859.

Xiao Bai soaked in the healing bath for the entire morning. During that time, when Nia and Luo Lian tried to chat with her, she always tried to keep her body submerged in the water and didn't dare to get too close to them.

The bathtub was already lit with incense, and perhaps because of the scent of the incense, Nia and Luo Lian did not notice the osmanthus fragrance on Xiao Bai when they were with him.

Before we knew it, it was noon.

Nia and Luo Lian left the bath to continue their own business.

Xiao Bai got up from the repair pool, carefully raised its arm, and sniffed itself.

One good news, and one bad news.

The good news is that it seems the human body cannot be permanently enchanted by the Deep Sea Akagi like a piece of cloth. At least, as long as it is constantly rinsed or soaked in water, the scent of the Deep Sea Akagi on the body will gradually fade.

The bad news is... Normally, sharing a bed is fine as long as it's just a little intimate, but if it were the kind of close contact we had last night, the scent of Akagi from the deep sea probably wouldn't be something that can be washed away with just a morning shower.

Xiao Bai, smelling the faint, yet still subtle, scent of osmanthus lingering on her body compared to the morning, smiled helplessly, unsure of what to say.

"Sigh... the smell has faded quite a bit, let's go back first."

Xiao Bai got up from the bathtub, returned to the changing room, and came to the basket where her clothes were stored.

Xiao Bai picked up her clothes, bent down, and smelled them.

"...Such a rich fragrance...So I smelled this good this morning..." Xiaobai muttered to herself. She sighed, carefully folded her clothes, and put them into her ship equipment space.

These clothes are definitely unwearable. I'll try to dry clean them when I get back and see if I can salvage them.

Fortunately, Xiaobai's ship equipment space contains a lot of daily necessities, and she even has several sets of formal clothing for occasions like the admiral's uniform.

Xiao Bai hugged his clothes, lowered his head, and took two deep breaths.

……

Sunlight streamed through the curtains and onto the bed.

The air was filled with the rich fragrance of osmanthus blossoms, which, after brewing overnight, had surprisingly developed a subtle hint of wine aroma.

On the bed, the snow-white figure covered by the quilt slowly turned over, and with a soft murmur, slowly opened her eyes.

"Um……"

Feeling somewhat tired, Akagi leaned against the soft bed frame and lazily sat up.

Akagi yawned, and a single tear squeezed out of her eye with the force of the yawn.

"My lord...is he no longer here?" Akagi looked around and murmured to herself. She sighed with a hint of disappointment. "Sigh...my lord really is...clearly...hmm?"

Akagi was talking to herself when she suddenly froze.

Akagi Shinkai raised her hand and stared blankly at the ring finger of her left hand.

Under the sunlight, a shimmering silver ring on her slender, snow-white ring finger refracted the colorful sunlight like a gemstone, sparkling brilliantly.

Chapter 2860 The Ritual of Deep Sea Akagi

Xiao Bai's dormitory was quiet for a long time.

Akagi remained standing, staring at the ring on her ring finger, her ruby-like pupils trembling slightly.

I don't know how long I held my left hand up.

Akagi felt her left arm gradually becoming sore and tired. She slowly lowered her arm, took off the ring on her ring finger, and gently pinched the ring's circle with her right index finger and thumb, examining it closely in the sunlight.

"So... this is the Admiral's oath ring?"

Deep Sea Akagi murmured softly, her slender fingers constantly rubbing the edges of the ring, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Through the sunlight.

Deep Sea Akagi saw that on the inner wall of the ring, there was a line of tiny characters engraved with exquisite craftsmanship.

—Lu Lin and…Deep Sea Red City.

Akagi's serene smile grew increasingly content.

Akagi leaned against the bed and put the ring back on the ring finger of her left hand.

Then she spread her fingers to shield her eyes from the sunlight, staring at the back of her hand as the sunlight shone on her palm, subtly illuminating the tips of her fingers, making the ring shine like a gemstone.

"My lord... since you prepared the ring for me long ago, why didn't you give it to me sooner?"

Akagi Shinkai asked with a smile to the air.

"Besides... letting the bride, who has just spent her wedding night, wake up alone in a cold bed, is a bit too heartless, even for a lord..."

Akagi lowered her hand, placed her left hand, which was adorned with a ring, on her chest, closed her eyes, and smiled as she felt it for a while.

Just then, the dormitory door was opened.

A snow-white figure walked in, bathed in sunlight.

"Ah... Akagi from the Deep Sea, you're awake..."

Akagi, lying on the bed, looked in the direction of the sound and saw Shiro, who had changed her clothes, walking into the dormitory with a plate of fried rice and steamed buns, smiling at her somewhat shyly.

Xiao Bai closed the door behind her, then picked up the plate, walked to the bedside, sat down, and placed the plate on the bed.

"Um... it's lunchtime now, and the cafeteria's lunches are all pretty greasy and heavily seasoned, so I asked the kitchen to make some light breakfast." Xiaobai said, taking a carton of milk from her pocket and placing it on the tray. "This is milk. Drinking this will help you replenish your energy... right?"

As Xiaobai spoke, her face flushed, and her fingers, like disobedient caterpillars, drew circles on the bed sheet.

Looking at Shiro's blushing face, Akagi, lying on the bed, was somewhat surprised.

"My lord...did you just get breakfast for me?"

"Well...no, not really...I took a shower and changed my clothes..."

"...Pfft." Akagi covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Deep Sea Red City?" Little White looked up.

"As expected of the admiral with so many wedding ships, it seems he already knows how to take good care of his bride."

"Eh...Eh eh eh eh??"

"Just kidding." Akagi smiled at Shiro, raising her left hand to show Shiro the ring on her ring finger. "My lord, is it pretty?"

Deep Sea Akagi's hands are slender and delicate, with fingers as smooth as jade, perfectly complementing the ring.

"Hmm...hmm." Xiaobai nodded blankly.

In front of Xiaobai, Shenhai Chicheng took off the ring and handed it to Xiaobai.

"Huh? Deep Sea Akagi?" Xiaobai suddenly panicked, clutching the Deep Sea Akagi ring. "You...you don't want it?"
