Elder brother's garrison

Page 641

"It's been an hour..."

Not far away, Fubuki and Changchun, along with Nia's destroyer, formed a circle. The group of girls occasionally glanced at Bismarck while chatting amongst themselves.

One of the destroyers was holding a small bag of sunflower seeds, munching away on them.

"The atmosphere is so serious."

"It looks like those two are about to fight."

"Two tigers cannot share one mountain..."

"Will ships with the same name really fight when they meet?"

"...No way, look at Tirpitz, she's getting along peacefully with Tirpitz over there."

"Speaking of which, Laffey has never seen a ship with the same name before."

"Fubuki, I've seen you before! Laffey is also at the Admiral's Naval Base!"

Does he look like Lafite?

"It's different. Our Laffey is super strong. As long as she has the little toy the admiral gave her, even if Sister Lexington came with B-25 herself, she couldn't be defeated!"

"Hmm... You're lying."

The destroyers' tea party never stopped.

Just then, Bismarck, the ship girl who had been inactive until now, finally took action.

Suddenly, Bismarck stood up from his chair, staring intently at Deep Sea Bismarck with a serious expression. He walked up to her, then reached out and gently touched Deep Sea Bismarck's head with both hands.

There was a brief pause.

Then he gave Bismarck a cat-ear hairstyle that looked very much like his own.

Bismarck withdrew her hand, looked at Deep Sea Bismarck, and silently nodded.

—That feels good.

On her way back to the courtyard, Xiaobai encountered Yixian and Yanzhan, who were waiting for her at the intersection.

Yi Xian seemed afraid that the ship girls would worry and cause some trouble, so she didn't tell the ship girls in the courtyard about this. Warspite was squatting on the roadside. When she saw Luo Lian return safely, she immediately ran up and stuck to Luo Lian like a leech, whimpering and shouting things like, "Admiral, you're finally back! Admiral, are you alright?"

What could Luo Lian possibly say about this?

Fortunately, Xiaobai arrived in time.

Otherwise, those young robbers would be dead.

Luo Lian felt a little annoyed that, as a childhood sweetheart with such a prominent and overbearing character, she had finally made an appearance recently, only to play a minor role in a side story.

In the courtyard, as Luo Lian and Xiao Bai returned, the ship girls, unaware that their admirals had just carried out a hurricane rescue, welcomed them as usual. Then, Fubuki pulled Xiao Bai into the circle of destroyers, insisting that Xiao Bai explain to Laffey just how terrifying Laffey's defense against aerial attacks was in the newbie naval base.

The sun sank below the horizon, and before we knew it, it was already afternoon.

Looking listless and hunched over, York slowly made his way back to the naval base after seeing off his former admiral, appearing utterly exhausted.

night.

The sunlight fades, and night falls.

Having finally finished catching up on sleep, Saratoga and Tirpitz, who were just about to embark on an exciting and thrilling virtual gaming session, were completely dumbfounded as they knelt at the door of Xiaobai's room, staring at each other with expressions of utter bewilderment, as if they had missed some crucial plot point.

In Xiao Bai's room, Luo Lian, with two wads of tissues stuck in her nose, had already fainted and passed out while Xiao Bai was taking off his clothes, completely unconscious on the bed.

After changing into her pajamas, Xiaobai turned around, looked at Luo Lian with a helpless expression, and sighed.

"We agreed to sleep together... Lianlian, you fell asleep first again."

Chapter 864 Arrival

Xiao Bai wasn't surprised by Luo Lian's shock.

Luo Lian and Xiao Bai have been together for so long, and Xiao Bai has stayed at Luo Lian's house a few times and even slept in the same bed with Luo Lian. However, for some reason, Luo Lian always falls asleep very suddenly. Xiao Bai was looking forward to a quiet bedtime chat like friends, but every time he had just taken off his clothes and hadn't even gotten into bed yet, Luo Lian would fall asleep first.

Or the kind that you can't wake up no matter how you call it.

—Forget it, this has happened more than once or twice, so Xiaobai just stopped calling Luo Lian.

Some people, once they fall asleep, won't wake up even if the sky falls and the earth cracks. In any case, Xiao Bai has never woken up Luo Lian in this situation.

—I have a feeling I'm going to be bored all night again.

How about letting Tirpitz and Saratoga from outside come in and play games?

Xiao Bai shook her head helplessly and decided to abandon this bold idea. She walked to the bedside, quietly covered Luo Lian with the quilt, and then hung the clothes that had fallen to the ground on the clothes rack.

Suddenly, Xiaobai felt a hard sensation in the pocket of his clothes.

"Hmm?" Xiaobai raised an eyebrow, reached into his pocket with some interest, and took out the item inside.

"Ah...it really is this."

In his pocket were several photos that looked quite old.

Fortunately, the photos are not too old, so they are high-definition and full-color versions. The first one above is one that Xiaobai has seen before. It shows the bride, Er Gou, wearing a white wedding dress, with her eyes closed and standing with the groom under a rain of flower petals, looking beautiful.

Petals of various colors slowly drifted down from the sky, swirling and twirling, creating a very romantic scene.

Xiao Bai smiled as she held the photo.

This is a wedding photo of her and Brother Xiaobai that I gave to me a few days ago when I went to see President Er Gou. However, after he gave it to me, I don't think I had time to look at it carefully before I went downstairs to study the high-level deep-sea amphibious ships.

Perfect timing! I didn't have time before, but now I do. Xiaobai sat down on the edge of the bed, and with some interest, moved the photo aside to look at the second one.

"Pfft." Upon seeing the second photo, Xiaobai covered her mouth, trying to suppress her laughter, but couldn't help but chuckle.

The second photo shows the groom and his best man carrying bottles of liquor, looking rather lewd with their arms around each other.

And to make matters worse, he knew the best man.

It is the young Mu Yu.

At that time, Mu Yu's face was still quite immature. His expression was subtle, and he looked rather embarrassed. However, no matter how ugly he looked, he still looked much more serious than he would have ten years later.

—My brother must have really run out of friends to ask Mu Yu to be his best man...

What a pity.

At that time, my brother probably went to Mu Yu because he had no other choice.

Xiao Bai wasn't very interested in Mu Yu, so after thinking for a moment, she quickly flipped to the next page.

The following photos are of the bride and groom toasting the guests at the wedding. Several photos are stacked together, and Xiaobai flipped through them one by one. It seemed that there were far more people than Er Gou had said. There were probably close to forty or fifty guests in the photos, so the wedding must have been quite lively.

Looking at these photos, Xiaobai felt as if she could see her brother from ten years ago through time. This feeling of constantly discovering new aspects of her brother made Xiaobai unconsciously happy.

Although he felt quite sorry for Lexington and Bismarck, Xiaobai began to think that it wasn't such a bad thing for his brother and the president's sister to have a fake marriage.

"Hmm? This person looks familiar." Xiaobai flipped the photo to the back, his gaze sweeping over a young man, and he frowned.

The man looks very young, much younger than his brother. In the photo, he is toasting his brother with a sincere and humble expression. He seems to be his brother's junior or something similar, but he is not wearing an admiral's uniform, so he doesn't seem to be an admiral yet.

Xiao Bai held the photo and tilted her head slightly, looking a little strange.

Of course, it's normal for one's older brother to have a junior, but when Xiaobai looked at the photo, he felt that this junior's face looked subtly familiar.

This was a very handsome man with fair skin, delicate features, a serene demeanor, and gentle eyes, giving Xiaobai the impression that he was a pretty girl in disguise.

I'd guess he's someone like an admiral, or at least he will be in the future.

Hmm, but where have I seen him before?

Xiaobai was curious.

This photo is from ten years ago...

What will the boy in the photo look like ten years from now?

Xiao Bai closed his eyes and thought for a while, carefully recalling the male faces he had seen during this period. He pondered for a long time and thought a lot.

Finally he shook his head.

Oh well, if I can't remember, then I've never seen a guy like that before.

Xiao Bai pondered this for a moment, then flipped to the next photo.

……

Xiaobai had actually prepared herself mentally.

—Regarding who you'll see in this photo.

His older brother had served at the Naval Academy, and Mu Yu seemed to have been his classmate there. So it was quite normal for his brother to invite his old classmate to the banquet.

Mu Yu is the best man.

Who is the bridesmaid?

Muxi is Muyu's older sister and also her brother's classmate. She even participated in competitions with her brother and won awards. So Xiaobai was mentally prepared. She felt that even if she saw Muxi dressed as a bridesmaid in these photos, standing next to her brother with her arm around his arm, she wouldn't be very surprised.

This is a photo from ten years ago. Maybe Muxi was a good person back then, right?

However, when Xiaobai saw the next photo, he suddenly felt a chill creep up his back and down to his fingertips.

Her fingers trembled slightly, and the photo fell to the ground with a clatter. The color drained from her face almost instantly.

There is indeed a photo of a bridesmaid in this picture.

But it wasn't Muxi, it was another girl.

The bridesmaid stood between the bride and groom, holding onto their arms, swinging forward like a swing, while smiling happily at the camera.

His mouth was open.

Like a naive young girl,

Her face was adorned with an incredibly innocent smile; she looked extremely happy.

Two adorable little tiger teeth were also faintly visible.

Black hair and black eyes.

Moving the gaze downwards, the young bridesmaid's chest revealed two incredibly eye-catching mounds of white flesh, surging and undulating within her red dress, with a floral pin on one side of her chest symbolizing her status as a bridesmaid.

This should have been a heartwarming photo, but Xiaobai didn't see it that way. She felt a chill run down her spine, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably. Holding her hands, Xiaobai stared blankly at the photo on the ground, lost in thought, unsure how to react.

In the spiritual world.

With a tremendous explosion, the villa where the Deep Sea Will resided was instantly reduced to dust.

A crimson shockwave erupted from the villa, carrying billowing red smoke as it hurtled rapidly toward the grassland.

In an instant, the lush green grassland was transformed into a sea of ​​fire in the explosion.

At the heart of the flames, the will of the deep sea, its face contorted with barely suppressed rage, stepped out, unleashing a fierce wind that instantly forced the flames to spread outwards.

The Will of the Deep Sea gritted its teeth and stared in one direction.

Bai Jiahei, squatting next to the barbecue grill, was holding a half-roasted chicken and staring blankly at Deep Sea Will.

"Holy shit—what are you doing?!" Before Bai Jiahei could finish speaking, the Deep Sea Will, who had teleported to Bai Jiahei's side, reached out and grabbed Bai Jiahei's neck, slamming her to the ground with immense force.

There was a boom.

An earth-shattering explosion erupted beneath the Deep Sea Will.

The entire mental world began to tremble and flicker at this moment.

Bai Jiahei let out a painful groan, and his entire body shattered inch by inch like broken glass in an instant. Then his body began to drift erratically.

"Why!"

The Will of the Deep Sea knelt on the ground, gripping Bai Jiahei's neck tightly with one hand, watching her face turn red, then darken, then turn purple, and her breath grow weaker and weaker.

"Why!"

The will of the deep sea roared madly at Bai Jiahei, showing none of its usual composure.

Black energy surged around the Will of the Deep Sea, and the frigid temperature instantly lowered the surrounding area to freezing point.

A chilling murderous aura filled the face of the Deep Sea Will.

"--Why!"
