It completely dispelled my sleepiness.
Even Saratoga sleeps better in his arms than he does.
Xiao Bai was overcome with grief.
I understand now, I don't deserve to have sleep.
written request for leave
I'm having a bit of writer's block, so I'll be putting it off for a day.
I love you all, ...
Chapter 1511 Temptation
It's estimated that last night, when the Deep Sea Will sent him out of the spiritual world, in order to prevent him from secretly returning to the spiritual world while the Deep Sea Will was away and quietly filling in those two humanoid holes that could be considered a dark history, the Deep Sea Will specially adjusted the time for sending Xiaobai's consciousness back to the body to early the next morning.
No wonder when Xiaobai left the spiritual world, he felt as if he had been drifting in the void for a long time.
Little White looked helplessly at Saratoga, who was nestled in his arms, snuggling against his chest, and sleeping soundly.
Saratoga is the kind of girl who, once she quiets down a little, reveals her beauty.
Perhaps due to Lexington's upbringing, Saratoga slept very well, with a calm expression and steady breathing. Her delicate features, paired with flowing, smooth blonde hair, made her look like a beautiful and pure princess from a fairy tale, exuding a subtle air of nobility.
Little White gently stroked Saratoga's long hair.
Saratoga's head moved slightly, instinctively responding to Little White's palm.
—She slept so soundly.
Little White looked at Saratoga with envy.
Xiaobai is really envious of Saratoga.
Although Xiaobai's body had recovered to its most energetic state by the end of the night.
But for Xiaobai, this night was more about blinking her eyes and not having a chance to experience the joy of sleep before the whole day was over, rather than a sweet sleep. As a result, Xiaobai always felt a sense of loss and disappointment.
I can't even yawn.
Xiao Bai turned around and glanced regretfully at her bed.
It's impossible to go back to sleep now.
Xiao Bai's energy recovery speed is really too fast. Even though he beat up the ship-mounted giant snake yesterday afternoon and his mental energy was a bit exhausted, after a night's sleep, Xiao Bai now feels like he has returned to his peak condition. He can even run a hundred laps around the street without getting tired.
After letting out a rather regretful sigh, Xiaobai still chose to climb out of bed and shoved the sleeping Saratoga into the blankets behind him.
Saratoga's nose twitched as she entered Little White's bed.
Then, Saratoga, who was in a deep sleep, was like an octopus that had found its prey. Its long limbs quickly wrapped around New Jersey, who was also in bed, and pulled New Jersey into its arms, pressing him close to its chest.
"..." Saratoga, still asleep, felt the embrace and smiled contentedly.
"..." Saratoga covered New Jersey's head while he was sleeping, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Wow—so Saratoga likes New Jersey that much." Xiaobai looked at New Jersey and Saratoga in bed with some surprise.
Xiaobai turned his head to look at the table.
Of the three Ludo players at the other end of the table, Wisconsin and Changchun, after a night of fierce battle, seemed a bit exhausted and were now sleeping peacefully on the table. Only Iowa was still in good spirits, standing by the table tidying up Saratoga's Ludo board.
In Saratoga's original spot, there was a piece of white paper on the table recording the wins and losses. The paper was covered with tiny black writing. Xiaobai went to the table, picked up the paper, and glanced at it.
This note records the rankings of last night's Ludo games.
Moreover, the rankings on the slips of paper were unusually stable.
First place: Iowa; second place: Wisconsin; third place: Changchun; fourth place: Saratoga.
Looking at the rankings from top to bottom, Xiaobai felt that the rankings were like a broken record, repeating row after row, very stable, until the last match at dawn. After Changchun and Wisconsin couldn't resist fatigue and withdrew, Xiaobai finally saw Saratoga write his name in first place in the latest rankings with excited, crooked handwriting.
—That's kind of inspiring.
"This is too brutal..." Xiaobai looked at the rankings on the white paper, unsure of what to say, and looked up at Iowa, saying, "Iowa, how many games of Ludo did you guys play last night...?"
"Not many, maybe around twenty or so?"
Iowa gently closed the Ludo board, covered her mouth and chuckled at Xiaobai.
"Admiral, Ludo is a really fun recreational activity—it's just that playing it all night can be a bit tiring."
"Relax...?" Xiaobai put down the white paper and smiled helplessly at Iowa.
Even a novice like me doesn't know where to begin with my complaints.
Last night, Iowa said that it was his first time playing Ludo and asked everyone to give him pointers, but judging from the results of the game, Iowa, who was always in first place, didn't look like a first-timer at all.
Xiao Bai looked at the rankings of the last game of Flying Chess with a bit of helplessness.
anyway.
Iowa... I wonder if he threw the last game?
Considering how Saratoga looked so precarious just now, Xiaobai thinks this possibility is quite high.
"Speaking of which, Iowa, you've been playing all night, aren't you sleepy now?"
Xiao Bai asked Iahua.
"Of course I'm sleepy, but—we're not in the naval base now, so in order to be able to help the admiral at any time, there need to be at least a few conscious people in the room. So I borrowed a little bit of the ship's equipment power to become alert." Iowa stuck her tongue out at Shiro. "As for the other sisters, let them rest assured for now."
“Uh…I see, thank you Iowa…” Xiaobai looked around the room knowingly, “…Speaking of which, Missouri, she…”
"Missouri came by once last night after the Admiral went to sleep. After carefully observing your sleeping face, she went back to her room to rest, satisfied." Iowa nodded, glanced at the time on her phone, and then said to Xiaobai while thinking, "Hmm... at this time, I feel Missouri should be around—"
"Crench."
It seemed to confirm Iowa's words.
Before Iowa could finish speaking, Xiaobai's door was pushed open.
Missouri walked into the room with hot fried dough sticks and soy milk.
"Admiral—ah, the Admiral is already awake. Good morning, Admiral."
Missouri chuckled and greeted Xiaobai, who was standing by the bed, before turning her gaze to Iowa, who was still awake in the room. "Good morning, Sister Iowa. It's been cold lately, take care of yourself. Would you like some hot soy milk to warm yourself up?"
"Thank you, Iowa's most thoughtful sister."
"You're welcome, Missouri's most reliable sister."
Iowa and Missouri smiled and sang in unison.
Iowa reached out and took a cup of hot soy milk from Missouri's hand.
The soy milk I bought in Missouri came in a portable, sealed milk tea cup. You can drink it directly by just inserting a straw. Although it lacks a sense of ceremony, you don't have to worry about spilling it, and it's also convenient for taking out.
"Admiral, did you sleep well last night?" Missouri walked up to Xiaobai, took out a cup of soy milk, gently shook it, and then handed it to Xiaobai with a smile.
"Uh...it's alright, it's alright." Xiaobai took the soy milk from Missouri, smiled at Missouri, and said, "Well...good morning, Missouri."
Good morning, Admiral.
Missouri replied with a smile, gently placing the large bag of breakfast she was carrying on the table. Then, she picked out a small cup of soy milk and two paper-wrapped fried dough sticks from the bag, took them in her hands, and stood next to Xiaobai.
Missouri didn't seem to be planning to enjoy her breakfast.
Xiao Bai looked at Missouri with some curiosity.
Aren't you going to eat Missouri?
"Missouri had already eaten when she bought it."
"And what is this in your hand...?"
"Ah, this one? This one is for Senior Longxiang." Missouri smiled at Xiaobai while holding up a cup of soy milk.
"Oh...right." Xiaobai suddenly realized, "Speaking of which, it's already morning. I wonder how things are going with Deep Sea Dragon."
"Isn't the Admiral worried that Senior Ryujo will escape?"
Missouri smiled at Little White.
"Well... how should I put it?" Xiaobai smiled at Missouri, holding her cup of soy milk. "It's alright, actually."
If you want Deepsea Dragon to join the newbie garrison like other Deepsea Deans, then you have to give him a little bit of basic trust. The reason why Xiaobai didn't detain or guard Deepsea Dragon last night was to see what kind of choice Deepsea Dragon would make in the face of his recruitment.
If Shenhai Longxiang stays obediently in the room, Xiaobai will naturally treat him as one of her own, and will be more polite when interrogating him later.
But what if the Deepsea Dragon escaped by jumping out of the window last night...?
Ok.
Anyway, she definitely can't escape.
Even if a Deepsea Dean who has lost her ship's equipment power runs as fast as she can in human society, she can't run very far. Even if she is kidnapped by human traffickers, it is impossible for her to run thousands of miles in one night. Xiaobai can easily find her whereabouts by simply using the Admiral Network to search the surrounding area.
When we finally capture the Deep Sea Dragon again, don't blame Little White for being ruthless.
When interrogating someone, whether it's using a back scratcher to tickle their armpits or a wolf-hair brush to tease their feet, Xiaobai will no longer hesitate to use these dirty tricks on Deepsea Dragon.
"You look quite happy, Admiral," Missouri said to Shiro with a smile.
"Have it?"
“It could be Missouri’s imagination.” Missouri gestured with the soy milk and fried dough sticks in his hand. “Admiral, shall we go check on Senior Ryujo’s room now?”
"Well, now."
Xiaobai nodded.
Xiaobai led Missouri and Iowa out of the room and arrived at the door of the room next door where Deep Sea Dragon was.
The door to Shenhai Longxiang's room was closed tightly, but it wasn't locked.
"Senior Ryusho? Are you there?" Missouri pressed the doorknob, calling out to the inside as she gently pushed the door open.
The door had just been pushed open.
A muffled conversation then drifted out from the doorway.
"After receiving the money, the wealthy and powerful were returned in full, while the common people's money was divided 30/70."
"Why is it only 70%?"
"Seventy percent of it belongs to others; even getting threety percent depends on the whims of the wealthy and powerful!"
"Whose face?"
"he."
"I hijacked a train all the way here to become the county magistrate, just to be at the mercy of others?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll have to beg on my knees!"
"Then they really are begging on their knees, businessmen, it's not shameful."
"..."
The door was pushed open.
The scene inside the Deep Sea Dragon's room came into view for Xiaobai and Missouri.
Deep Sea Dragon was lying on the bed, hugging a phone that was playing a movie. He grinned, sporting two big dark circles under his eyes, his head drooping, but he was watching the movie on his phone with great enthusiasm.
Deep Sea Dragon was completely absorbed by the movie on his phone and didn't notice Missouri and Little White Ahua opening the door.
While looking at his phone, Deep Sea Ryujo's mouth moved slightly, opening and closing in sync with the dialogue of the characters in the movie, muttering softly.
Shenhai Longxiang's voice was very soft, but through her lip movements, it was still clear that what she was muttering was exactly the lines from the movie, with its intonation and rhythm.
It seems like this isn't the first time she's seen this movie.
Seeing Deepsea Ryujo lying on the bed, engrossed in playing on his phone, Xiaobai, Missouri, and Iowa, who were standing at the door, exchanged glances.
He then smiled knowingly.
really.
The power of high technology is great.
Chapter 1512 Xiaobai's Plans
While Deepsea Dragon was engrossed in a movie, Xiaobai, Missouri, and Iowa went into Deepsea Dragon's room together.
