Elder brother's garrison

Page 1045

But in reality, he was once a naval base that had climbed into the world's top 20 and even touched the threshold of the world's top 10. Even though he hadn't made it onto the rankings for a long, long time, his years of experience as an admiral had still given him insight.

While the number of modified ship girls isn't as rare as those with awakened skills, they are still definitely comparable to powerful ship girls.

Even in its own Black Flame Garrison, which boasts a history spanning ten years, the number of modified ship girls can be counted on one hand.

A naval base that possesses modified ship girls... especially two modified ship girls at once, is no ordinary naval base.

"Damn it!" The middle-aged admiral stepped out of the waiting hall and cursed angrily, then quickened his pace again.

If the naval base that comes to report me is just an ordinary, unknown naval base, I can easily deal with it using my own strength and resources.

However, if it's a naval base that has modified ship girls... its ranking must be at least in the top 50 in the world, then it would be very difficult for me to manage such a naval base.

Oh shit.

That little Jiang from Fish City.

Didn't we agree that all actions must be kept strictly confidential?

When did he come to be targeted by this naval base?

The middle-aged admiral cursed inwardly, his pace gradually quickening until he started jogging.

The middle-aged admiral, panting heavily, ran all the way to the admiral's office.

They entered the admiral's office.

The middle-aged admiral strode to his desk, roughly rummaged through it, and found a notebook. After flipping through it and confirming that it contained his transaction records with Fish City, he fiercely tore the pages off one by one, took out a lighter, and set the shredded paper on fire.

There was a crash.

The fire consumed the pile of paper scraps.

Then, the middle-aged admiral took out his cell phone, quickly pulled out his SIM card, and threw it into the burning paper scraps.

After doing all this.

The middle-aged admiral slumped into his desk, staring blankly at the raging fire burning on the floor tiles of his office. He took a breath, looking somewhat lost.

"Phew... This should be alright now." The middle-aged admiral murmured softly, leaning against his desk as he watched the fire in front of him grow stronger and stronger until it burned into a ring of glowing red charcoal. He then wiped away a bead of sweat and pulled a key from his desk. "Next... this is it."

The middle-aged admiral gripped the key tightly.

He walked to the burnt-out fire and kicked the ashes hard.

"How could I possibly let you find evidence?!"

After crushing the ashes, the middle-aged admiral calmed down. He put the key in his pocket, walked to his office door, and pushed it open.

"Hi, Admiral Jin, it's so late, where are you headed?"

Outside.

Xiao Bai stood gracefully in the corridor, waving at the middle-aged admiral.

Smile like a flower.

It was as if I were meeting an old friend, so kind and friendly.

Chapter 1353 The Frenzied Roar

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The middle-aged admiral was startled by the sudden appearance of Xiaobai outside the door. He jumped back like a spring and then fell to the ground with a thud.

After falling to the ground, the middle-aged admiral still supported himself with an incredulous expression, looking at the little white dog in front of the door with lingering shock.

"You! How could you... Shouldn't you be..."

"Me? Hmm... Where are your ship girls? They've all been subdued by us." Xiaobai said with a smile, stepping into the admiral's office. She immediately noticed the pile of ashes in the center of the office and rubbed her forehead helplessly. "...Ah, Admiral Jin, you're really fast..."

"You! You're joking!" The middle-aged admiral completely ignored Xiaobai's last sentence. He sat on the ground, waving his hands vigorously at Xiaobai. "How could my ship girls be subdued by you! With your two modified ship girls, how could they! How could they be so quick..."

"...But even if Admiral Jin doesn't believe me...I really am here..." Xiaobai smiled helplessly at the middle-aged admiral.

"You're lying! I don't believe you!" The middle-aged admiral scrambled to his feet, and for some reason, he glared at Xiaobai with a somewhat crazed rage. "You're hallucinating! You're definitely hallucinating!"

"……"noob.

"I'll break you!" the middle-aged admiral roared as he lunged at Xiaobai.

Just as the middle-aged admiral's hand was about to touch Xiaobai's shoulder...

Just hear a snap.

Iowa burst in from outside the door like a gust of wind, slapping the middle-aged admiral hard across the face, like swatting a fly, sending the admiral flying from mid-air to the ground a short distance away.

"Admiral? Are you alright?" After slapping the middle-aged admiral away, Iowa quickly turned around and looked at Xiaobai with concern. "That man didn't touch you, Admiral, did he?"

Iahua pouted, stared with her big, watery eyes, and approached Xiaobai like a pitiful little girl, pressing her face against Xiaobai's as if she wanted to become one with Xiaobai, and asked.

"Uh...no, not yet...thank you, Iowa..." Xiaobai glanced awkwardly out of the corner of his eye at the middle-aged admiral who had been slapped to the ground by Iowa and was still not reacting, then gave Iowa an awkward smile, "Uh...compared to me...that Admiral Jin, he's now..."

"Please rest assured, Admiral. Iowa didn't use the ship's power just now. It's just that a human woman of my size should have the strength to slap him." Iowa pulled her head back and smiled reassuringly at Shiro. "Admiral, you're not worried that a petite girl like me could slap an adult man to the point of death, are you?"

“Frail…” Xiaobai silently glanced at Iowa’s figure.

No matter how you look at it.

Even without using the power of her ship equipment, Iowa's figure is that of a very fit and tall athletic lady, not at all like a delicate woman.

Uh.

Forget it.

Now is not the time to dwell on this issue.

Thinking of this, Xiaobai quickly shook his head, then smiled at Iowa.

"Well, anyway, thank you, Iowa."

"You're welcome, Admiral."

Xiao Bai and Yi Ahua took two steps toward the office.

Follow behind the two.

The two ship girls, Ooi and Kitakami, along with Pompeii, who was sweating profusely as if she had just finished a super intense workout and was panting heavily to recover her energy, followed Shiro and Iowa into the office.

"Oh... this is the admiral's office?" Ooi walked into the room, crossed his arms, and nodded as he looked at the office's decor. "He seems to be quite wealthy."

"Judging from his office alone, he really doesn't seem like the kind of admiral who breaks the law." Kitagawa.

“Those lawbreakers like them just like to put on a show.” Ooi shrugged, walked to his desk, opened it, and began rummaging through it. “I’m looking for evidence of their crimes…”

Bei Shang and Pompeii glanced silently at the clump of ashes in the middle of the office.

"As for the evidence, it should have been destroyed by this admiral just now, right? He was quick on the uptake," Kitakami said.

"Huh? Destroyed?!" Ooi looked up, staring at Shiro in astonishment. "Admiral! This person disposed of the body!"

“…Haha.” Xiaobai chuckled and nodded. “Hmm, it seems we’re still a little late.”

"What should we do?"

"Hmm... that is to say, what should we do?" Xiaobai looked down at the middle-aged admiral's back as he lay on the ground and repeated the statement.

Ooi Kitakami, Iowa, and the other two silently glanced at Shiro's profile.

"...Admiral?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Why do you seem not to mind at all that he destroyed the evidence?" Dai asked curiously.

"Uh... well..." Xiaobai thought for a moment, then smiled, "It's not that I don't mind, of course it would be best if the evidence could be preserved... but..."

"but?"

“Yes, compared to evidence that can be destroyed, there were things I cared about more before.” Xiaobai nodded.

"More concerned? What do you mean?" Daijing looked at Xiaobai curiously.

"It was what this admiral said to us just now in the waiting room." Xiaobai lowered her hand and smiled at Ooi. "You heard it too, right?"

"I heard everything... but... is there anything wrong with it?" Ooi asked, puzzled.

"This admiral confessed his crimes to us personally while we were in the waiting room," Kitakami began. "Is that what the admiral is curious about?"

"Yes, that's it." Xiaobai nodded to Beishang.

"...Is that so strange? Didn't he just...explain it already...?" Pompeii finally caught her breath and asked with some curiosity.

"Ah, you mean what he said, that he wasn't afraid of others knowing about his crimes?" Xiaobai smiled at Pompeii. "That's certainly one explanation, but..."

"but?"

“No matter what… it’s really a bit strange. At that time, we were just Jiang’s subordinates, people who came to conduct currency transactions. Even if he didn’t care that others knew about his crimes, there was no reason for him to take the initiative to tell us insignificant people, right?” Xiaobai said to Pompeii.

"Uh...maybe he's arrogant, and also stupid?"

"..." Xiaobai nodded with a smile, "That might be the case."

"...Or maybe...there are other unspeakable secrets?" Bei Shang thought for a while and then spoke to Xiao Bai.

"Huh? Wait, what do you mean by other unspeakable secrets?" Ooi looked completely bewildered, scratching her head with an expression that showed she didn't understand.

"In other words, although from our perspective, this admiral has already revealed his secret to us," Kitakami turned to look at Ooi, "perhaps, the reason this admiral told us this information, besides being arrogant and foolish, was also to use this first impression to hide his deeper secrets?"

"A deeper level?" Daii and Pompeii stared blankly at Beishang.

"First impressions...that's true." Xiaobai nodded. "It really is the first impression..."

Xiaobai murmured softly as she slowly walked behind the male admiral who had fainted on the ground.

“Just now, Admiral Jin, you told us that the deep-sea pollution is all because you used deep-sea debris, right? That's what laymen say.” Xiaobai paused slightly at this point. “But I'm also an admiral, and I know that your statement is incorrect… or rather, incomplete. Because I've seen deep-sea debris before. If it's not completely removed, it will disintegrate into powder once it's been out of the sea for too long, and even the deep-sea aura within it… will completely dissipate.”

"Are you really polluting the sea with deep-sea debris?"

Xiao Bai's gaze remained calmly fixed on the middle-aged admiral's back. She silently reached out her hand, bent down, and slipped it into the admiral's pocket.

Just now.

The middle-aged admiral, who had just been unconscious and unresponsive, suddenly sprang to his feet. He spun around two or three times in place and retreated rapidly to the wall. He clutched the pocket that Xiaobai had tried to reach into with both hands, staring at Xiaobai with a deathly pale face.

Ooi Kitakami and Iowa rushed forward.

With lightning speed, Ooi and Kitakami each grabbed one of the middle-aged admirals' arms, ignoring his struggles, and lifted him into the air.

Iowa walked up to the middle-aged admiral, reached out her hand, and pulled a shiny key from his pocket amidst his violent struggle.

"Admiral." Iowa turned around and handed the key to Xiaobai behind him.

"Let me go! Give it back to me! Give it back to me!! That's mine! You can't! This is illegal! You can't!!" The middle-aged admiral screamed in mid-air, watching Iowa hand the key to Little White, the veins on the admiral's forehead were about to bulge.

“It’s a key…” Xiaobai picked up the key that Iowa handed him, held it up in the sunlight, and looked at it. “Hmm… the shape of this key handle… looks a bit like the weapons depot in the naval base.”

"So, his secret is in the weapons depot of the Black Flame Garrison?" Ooi and Kitakami asked in unison.

"I don't know either... Anyway... let Wu Yi's dad go and take a look." Xiao Bai put away the keys.

The internal layout of the naval bases is basically the same in most cases.

As everyone left the admiral's office, Ooi Kitakami grabbed the middle-aged admiral's arm and carried the struggling admiral along the way, walking at the back of Shiro's group.

Xiaobai and the others casually followed the route of the newbie naval base and found the weapons depot in a corner of the base.

The weapons depot of the Black Flame Garrison is very large.

In terms of size, it's almost comparable to the ship girl weapon depot in the newbie naval base.

The closer they got to the weapons depot, the stronger the middle-aged admiral's reaction became. He howled and cursed, kicking his legs wildly in the air, spouting things like, "I won't allow you to violate my human rights," "I'll hire a lawyer," and "I'll file a complaint against you."

of course.

These struggling actions and words were naturally ignored by Xiaobai and the others.

The weapons depot of the Black Flame Garrison was tightly closed. The entrance was very clean, and a black iron gate, three or four meters high, stood firmly on the ground. In front of the gate was a path worn smooth by countless footsteps, indicating that people frequently came and went here.

Xiaobai walked to the weapons depot with the key in her hand, exchanged a glance with the ship girls, and then inserted the key into the lock of the weapons depot to open the door.

Wow————

The mechanical sound of the door opening was like the creaking of train tracks.

The doors to the weapons depot opened.

A strong and sharp aura of the deep sea surged out of the weapons depot the moment the hatch opened.
