As Yamato Shinkai spoke, he gently patted Shiro's shoulder.
"Uh……"
Xiao Bai remained silent.
So, my land-based ship equipment... is actually this powerful... I never thought of using it this way before.
"So, Shiro, do you want to try pretending?" Yamato asked Shiro.
“Uh…” Xiaobai stared at the cannon barrel in Shenhai Yamato’s arms for a while, then nodded hesitantly. “Well… since Yamato-neechan said so… anyway, it’s a waste for it to just sit in the naval base collecting dust if I don’t use it… then I’ll install it and give it a try.”
Shiro and Yamato moved the tables, chairs, and beds, creating a small open space in the center of the room.
Xiao Bai stood in the middle of the open space, raised his hand and beckoned to the floor. The ice-blue land-based ship equipment was summoned from behind Xiao Bai and then landed on the floor with a loud bang.
As the land-based ship equipment appeared, white mist rose up, and fine ice crystals gradually filled the air.
The temperature in the room dropped several degrees instantly.
Xiaobai's ship equipment has no deep-sea aura or ship girl aura. Even if it is summoned in the room, its presence is only at the level of ordinary large furniture, and the ship girls living nearby will not be able to notice it.
"Alright, Yamato-neechan, we can begin."
Shiro turned around and said to Yamato Abyss.
"Oh!"
Deep Sea Yamato took a breath of the cold air around him and responded to Shiro.
-
In Bismarck's room, the clattering of controllers and the blaring music of video games filled the air.
"OK!"
Finally, with a loud and majestic referee's note, the stirring music paused for a moment, then turned into shouts of victory.
"what!"
After suffering a 28-game losing streak, Saratoga angrily slammed down the controller, letting out a miserable howl as if he had been punched in the face, and fell backward onto the floor with a thud.
"How did we lose again?!"
Saratoga slapped the floor repeatedly, opening and closing his eyes.
"I've told you so many times, when you're playing games, look at the screen, don't just stare at the controller and swipe around randomly." Tirpitz sighed and put down the controller. "...I already let you win, you're the one who's letting me down."
"No waterproofing allowed!"
Saratoga kicked her legs at the air on the floor, displaying her final stubbornness.
"..." Tirpitz picked at his ear as if he hadn't heard, "So... are we still going to fight?"
"I don't want to fight today." Saratoga's leg, which had been kicking in mid-air, stopped, then came together limply and he fell to the floor.
A 28-game losing streak is indeed quite a blow to confidence.
Even someone as resilient as Saratoga was so thoroughly defeated today that she no longer wanted to play video games.
"..."
Tirpitz put down the handle, grabbed the remote, pressed the power button on the TV, then let out a soft sigh of relief and collapsed next to Saratoga.
Saratoga and Tirpitz stared at the white ceiling.
"...Bismarck hasn't returned yet."
Saratoga muttered to herself.
“Yes,” Tirpitz replied expressionlessly, “My sister is very slow at shopping, especially when it comes to buying washboards.”
“…It’s so slow,” Saratoga whispered.
"Yes."
"And Xiaobai didn't come back after she went out."
“She should be in her own room,” Tirpitz said matter-of-factly. “Right next door.”
"Oh……"
"Speaking of which, it was quite noisy over there with Xiaobai just now."
"what?"
"Didn't you hear?"
"No."
"Oh right, I forgot you were busy fiddling with the controller." Tirpitz yawned, his eyelids heavy and blinking. "Just now, there seemed to be a rumbling, booming sound coming from Xiaobai's room. There was also a fighting sound in the room and hallway before, which only stopped when you were on your twenty-fourth losing streak."
"Huh???" Saratoga's eyes widened. She rolled over and got up from the ground. "Why didn't you tell me about something this big before?!"
"Don't worry... it's probably nothing serious." Tirpitz yawned and rolled over. "Anyway, if a fight really broke out, not many people could beat Little White."
“…Saratoga.”
"I'm tired, I'm going to sleep. You can go to Little White's place if you want," Tirpitz muttered softly, closing his eyes and his breathing gradually becoming steady. "Goodnight..."
However, before Tirpitz could finish speaking...
next second.
Saratoga yanked Tirpitz up from the floor and started rocking him back and forth, gripping his shoulders.
"Tirpitz, don't sleep!" Saratoga shook Tirpitz anxiously. "Quick! Come with me to Little White's place, just in case something happens there!"
"...You can go by yourself."
“Two people are better than one!” Saratoga shoved Tirpitz up from the floor. “Anyway, staying here is just waiting for Bismarck to come back and make you kneel on a washboard. Let’s go check on Little White now!”
“…” Tirpitz sighed helplessly, and then Saratoga dragged him out of the room.
Little White's room was right next to Bismarck's room. Saratoga pulled Tirpitz out of the room, and they arrived just around the corner.
Xiao Bai's room door was tightly closed, and even the corridor was quiet.
Saratoga and Tirpitz reached the door of Little White's room.
"It's quite quiet here," Tirpitz said quietly to Saratoga, looking down the seemingly endless corridor.
Saratoga was lying on the door, eavesdropping with his pert buttocks sticking out.
"...Why didn't you just knock on the door?"
"Shh!" Saratoga gestured for Tirpitz to be quiet, then cautiously pressed her ear against White's door. "In case, in case White gets kidnapped..."
“No matter how you look at it, Shiro couldn’t possibly be kidnapped in a place like this…” Tirpitz sighed, then looked up and thought for a moment. “Oh… but speaking of which, I vaguely remember that Yamato was punished by Akagi to face the wall in Shiro’s room.”
"..."
"Um……"
Tirpitz lowered his head and looked towards Saratoga.
Saratoga was pressed tightly against the door, frowning, listening intently to the sounds coming from inside.
Tirpitz blinked, looked around, and then, mimicking Saratoga's actions, squatted down in front of the door and pressed her ear against it.
Ella's house has high-quality security and soundproof doors. In theory, unless it's extremely noisy inside, you shouldn't hear anything clearly outside. Even if someone like Saratoga or Tirpitz were eavesdropping, they wouldn't hear anything.
However, since both of them are ship girls, as long as they use the power of ship girls and maximize their hearing sensitivity, they can easily hear the sounds inside the cricket-proof soundproof door if they just want to faintly hear the sounds inside.
Tirpitz and Saratoga listened carefully to the sounds coming from inside the door.
Even with improved hearing, it's still quite difficult to hear sounds inside a house through a soundproof door.
Saratoga and Tirpitz found their footing after a while before they could finally faintly hear the conversation inside the door.
"Yamato-neechan..."
"noob……"
The sound of Shiro and Yamato talking could be heard from inside the door.
Ok.
As expected, nothing strange happened inside the door.
Xiaobai is fine.
However... I've finally found a good position, and standing up is quite tiring, so I'll just listen to what Shiro and Yamato are doing in the room.
Saratoga and Tirpitz blinked and listened intently.
"Yamato-neechan..."
"Little White... what's wrong?"
"Um... you... you haven't inserted it yet?"
"I'll try to be as fast as I can..."
"……Oh."
Upon hearing this, Saratoga and Tirpitz's eyes widened instantly.
Chapter 1533 Unique Gameplay
"Ok??"
Upon hearing this, Saratoga instantly jumped up from the floor like a cat with its fur standing on end. She raised her hand and hurriedly prepared to pound on the door of Little White's room.
However, before Saratoga could even pound his little fist on White's door...
From behind Saratoga, another hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Saratoga's arm.
"Tirby... Ugh! Ugh!"
Saratoga opened her mouth to speak, but another hand swiftly reached out from the other direction and covered her mouth, refusing to let go no matter how much Saratoga struggled.
Tirpitz pulled Saratoga to the floor and held her down.
"Shh!"
Tirpitz gestured for Saratoga to quiet down.
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!!" Saratoga's fair face turned bright red as she groaned and moaned at Tirpitz.
"Calm down a bit." Tirpitz sighed and whispered to Saratoga, "Those in the room are Shiro and Yamato, and Yamato is Shiro's marriage ship. Based on what we just heard, they're probably... you know what I mean?"
"Ugh... Ugh! Ugh ugh ugh!"
"Of course, I heard the sounds from inside the room too."
"Well!"
“Don’t rush in just yet…” Tirpitz sighed, still holding Saratoga’s mouth with one hand and her wrist with the other. “It’s a matter between a married ship and the admiral; how can someone of our status interfere…”
"……Well……"
Upon hearing this, Saratoga's large eyes dimmed, and he slumped down like a salted fish that had lost its faith.
Seeing Saratoga's dejected expression, Tirpitz sighed in exasperation.
"...But having said that, it wouldn't be good if someone found out that I was being a hooligan with the admiral during such an important time as a campaign," Tirpitz muttered under his breath. "At least it's much more serious than me sneaking off to an internet cafe and getting caught."
"Ok!"
Hearing this, Saratoga's dimmed eyes brightened again, and she nodded rapidly at Tirpitz like a chick pecking at rice, making "hmm" sounds.
“However…once again, before we take any action,” Tirpitz slowly released Saratoga, “why don’t we listen in at the door for a while longer?”
"Huh?" Saratoga was taken aback, then shook her head rapidly. "Inside! Things are getting so urgent inside! If we don't hurry..."
“Those were just lines I overheard. Who knows what really happened?” Tirpitz said matter-of-factly. “Besides, even if you want to warn the newbie, the timing of your interruption is important, right? Otherwise, it might just be annoying.”
“Uh…” Saratoga deflated upon hearing Tirpitz’s last sentence. “Then… what do we do…”
"Here." Tirpitz approached Little White's door, took out a booklet and a pencil from her ship equipment space, and beckoned Saratoga with her finger. "Anyway, listen a little longer."
"What is this?" Saratoga climbed up to Tirpitz and looked at the booklet in Tirpitz's hand with a puzzled expression.
“A sketchbook.” Tirpitz listened to the voice behind the door while rapidly sketching in the sketchbook with a pencil.
What are you doing drawing at this time?
"...I suddenly had an inspiration, so I'm jotting it down."
