"Isn't Miss Salt Lake City going to take us there?" Little White looked at Salt Lake City curiously.
"I need to go back outside and continue my guard duty." Salt Lake City took out his trench coat from his ship's equipment space, quickly put it on, then covered his face with the hood and walked towards the door leading to the attic not far away.
The door to the attic was a wooden door that was more than two people tall.
As soon as Salt Lake City, now a bodyguard in black, pushed open the gate, Xiao Bai could see the surging crowd outside through the crack in the door. Tourists swarmed forward like bees smelling nectar, frantically pointing their phones and cameras at the gate. In an instant, a noisy cacophony of shouts and camera flashes filled the air, and the glare from the flashes blinded Salt Lake City.
"Look, someone's coming out!"
"Is he the discoverer of the Deep Sea Institute? Take a picture! Quick, take a picture!"
"Crackling crackling crackling crackling—"
"Damn it, it's bodyguards! Why are they always bodyguards!"
Has anyone seen what's inside the attic?
"..."
The frantic shouts of the crowd came from outside the door.
The surging crowd was eventually stopped by the other black-clad ship girls outside.
As he walked out of the gate in Salt Lake City, the gate closed behind him.
The hall quickly returned to silence.
"Is it like this every day here?" Xiaobai asked the green-haired ship girl.
"These past few days have been alright; the previous period was truly troublesome." The green-haired ship girl smiled at everyone as she said this. "But we're pretty much used to it now. This job may be boring, but at least it's safer than going to sea to fight, right?"
"I'd rather fight a deep-sea amphibious warship for three hundred rounds than come here to guard the gate..."
"not bad."
The green-haired ship girl chatted warmly with Xiaobai and the other two for a few more minutes before they said goodbye and went up the stairs.
As the green-haired ship girl had said, the environment inside the attic was completely under their control. Almost every room on every floor and every corridor had two or three ship girls in black patrolling at the same time. When these ship girls first saw Xiaobai and her two companions, they looked at them with puzzled expressions for a while, and only after confirming that they were not trespassing did they slowly look away.
Under the watchful eyes of the black-clad ship girls, Xiaobai and her two companions arrived at the study on the third floor.
"This is the place Salt Lake City and the enthusiastic green-haired lady were talking about, the place where the head of the naval base is located, right?" Xiaobai looked at the study door and knocked on it. "Hmm... it's strange, why did they say 'head of the base'? Wouldn't it have been better to just say 'admiral'?"
Chapter 2328 It turns out to be an old friend
After knocking on the door, Xiaobai put down her hand and waited for a while.
A few seconds later, a clear, somewhat childlike voice came from behind the study door.
"Please come in."
Upon hearing the sound, Xiaobai and the two ship girls outside the door were stunned.
"Huh? A girl?" York exclaimed in surprise. "And judging from her voice, she sounds about the same age as the Admiral?"
Xiao Bai pushed open the study door.
The door opens.
Facing the main entrance was a brown wooden conference table with a computer running on it. The sound of typing came from the other end of the computer, and stacks of paper documents on both sides were as high as small mountains.
Xiao Bai was curious about the person on the other end of the computer.
The typing stopped a second later, and a ship girl wearing a cat-ear hooded onesie pajamas peeked out from behind the computer.
This ship girl has beige hair, wears white and purple pajamas, and is slightly taller than a destroyer. She also has a very good figure, with a full chest. She pulls the zipper of her pajamas very tightly, as if it might burst open at any moment. This is the first ship girl that Xiaobai has seen in this attic who is not wearing a black uniform.
"Hello?" The cat-eared ship girl blinked, looking at Xiaobai and the other two.
"Huh?" The three of them looked at the cat-eared ship girl. "A ship girl?"
"Yes, I'm a ship girl." The cat-eared ship girl looked at Xiaobai and the other two and nodded repeatedly.
The three of them looked at each other, and each of them saw a hint of surprise in the other's eyes.
The person in this study isn't the admiral?
"Hello, I came in from outside." Even though she hadn't seen the admiral yet, Xiaobai still greeted the ship girl in the study politely. As she walked into the study, she said to the ship girl behind the computer, "Are you in charge here?"
"Yes, I am in charge."
"Um... excuse me, your admiral..."
"The admiral isn't with us."
"Huh? You brought so many ship girls, but the admiral didn't come along?"
"The Admiral has more important work to do." The cat-eared ship girl said, then smiled at the three of them. "It's okay, anyway, the Admiral just leaves the work to me even when he's at home."
Ugh... Zha Ti.
Looking at the proud smile on the cat-eared ship girl's face, Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Of course, it would be too impolite to speak ill of other admirals in front of the ship girls, so Xiaobai didn't say it out loud, but just complained to herself.
"I want to see the human you're protecting. May I see him?" Xiaobai asked the cat-eared ship girl directly.
"Humans? Oh..." The cat-eared ship girl shrank back behind the computer, her small body hidden from everyone's gaze. "Sure."
"Thank you very much! Where is that human?"
"No, no, not yet." The cat-eared ship girl didn't answer Xiaobai's question, but said again, "I can't let you see her yet."
"Huh? Didn't you say it was possible..."
"Before the visit, you need to fill out a form!" The cat-eared ship girl pulled out several pages of forms from the mountain of documents beside her and placed them on the conference table next to her. "Visiting a target under protection is a special case, and we need to go through a basic procedure and leave the visitor's basic information."
After saying that, the cat-eared ship girl took out a pencil, placed it obediently on the form, and pushed it in front of everyone.
"Wow, that's really meticulous..." Xiaobai smiled, walked to the conference table, picked up a pen and looked at the forms and documents on the table.
This form requires quite a lot of information, from date, name, address, ID number, to occupation, reason for visit, number of people visiting, duration of visit, relationship with the target, and so on. In total, there are about forty or fifty items that need to be filled in.
"The process..." Xiaobai sighed, then picked up his pen and started writing quickly on the spreadsheet.
It took Xiaobai five minutes to finish filling out the form and hand it back to the cat-eared ship girl.
"Hello, this is the completed form."
"Thank you for your hard work!" The cat-eared ship girl smiled as she picked up the form, looked it over carefully, then blinked and looked at Shiro, "So you're an admiral too?"
"Yes……"
"If you're an admiral, you'll need to fill out an additional form." The cat-eared ship girl pulled out a new form from the documents beside her and handed it to Shiro.
Xiaobai took the form and looked at it.
This new form is for filling in your admiral number, naval base address, secretary ship name, and naval base resume.
"Even the admiral's information has to be filled out." Xiaobai sighed as he held the form, but still picked up a pen and started writing quickly.
The address of the newbie naval base is easy to write, but the newbie naval base's resume is quite long. In addition, there are all kinds of battle medals and achievements that Little White Brother obtained during the time he was still alive. Even if you use the most concise text to transcribe it, it will still take at least several thousand words, which really takes time.
I never imagined I'd have to go to so much trouble just to meet an ordinary human being...
Could I have been tricked by this ship girl...?
Thinking this, Xiaobai couldn't help but glance at the cat-eared ship girl.
Then, at that glance, Xiaobai was slightly taken aback.
Xiaobai noticed that the cat-eared ship girl seemed to be typing a document called "Pacific Ocean Information Report" on her computer.
Pacific Ocean……?
Ok?
Xiaobai paused writing thoughtfully, looking at the cat-eared ship girl.
Speaking of which...
This ship girl seems to be saying that her admiral always pushes the work onto her.
Could it be that……
"Um... excuse me." Having thought of something, Xiaobai opened her mouth to the cat-eared ship girl.
"Ok?"
"Your ship's name... is it Fletcher?"
"Eh?"
The cat-eared ship girl paused, stopped typing, and looked at Xiaobai.
The cat-eared ship girl and Shiro stared at each other for a few seconds. Although she was a little confused, she nodded.
“Yes.” The cat-eared ship girl looked at Shiro curiously, “How did you know that…?”
“As expected…” Xiaobai looked at Fletcher’s innocent expression and gave a helpless smile, “It really is…”
"Really?" Fletcher tilted his head in confusion.
"Please wait a moment..." Xiaobai put down the pen and paper and took off the mask from her ear.
Just now.
Light footsteps drifted in from outside the study.
Everyone instinctively looked outside.
"Fletcher, the hot milk is ready, and I also made some cookies. Would you like some?" A destroyer ship girl with light yellow eyes, light yellow twin tails, and wearing a blue and white sailor uniform entered the study carrying the food. She wore a warm smile, like a little sun, and looked at everyone in the study. "The Admiral said we don't need to be too serious about this task, Fletcher, you should take a break—"
Halfway through the sentence.
The destroyer ship girl who had just entered the room saw Shiro take off her mask. She froze on the spot for a moment.
"Hey hey hey?? Admiral Lu Lin?? What are you doing here?"
The destroyer ship girl covered her cheek, looking at Xiaobai with surprise.
Within Chapter 2329.
While Mu Yu was having a meeting with Ringo to discuss an important matter, she suddenly felt a chill run from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and she couldn't help but shudder.
"hiss----"
Mu Yu lost her grip on any of the documents, which scattered across the conference table with a clattering sound.
"what happened?"
Opposite to Mu Yu, Ringo raised her head.
"I... I suddenly felt a strong sense of unease!" Mu Yu shrank his neck, his face turning pale as he touched his shoulder, revealing a fearful expression. "Although I don't know what happened, just a moment ago, I had a feeling as if something terrible had broken into my house!"
"Steal... your house...?" Ringo looked at Mu Yu, frowned and thought for a while, then put down the documents in her hand and replied, "You are the Governor-General of the Pacific. No one in the world can steal you."
"That makes sense, but that chill just now was just too realistic..."
"Take care to rest and avoid catching a cold."
Ringo lowered her head, offered a casual word of comfort to Mu Yu, and then turned her attention back to the documents in front of her.
The atmosphere in the room quieted down again.
After a while, Mu Yu's sigh came from inside the room.
"Sigh... I probably haven't been resting well. The weather has been getting colder and colder lately. It looks like I'll have to add a quilt when I sleep at night for the next few days."
"Ah."
……
Meanwhile, in Peicheng.
"Admiral Lu, Admiral Lu Lin...no, don't be so rough...that area, the Admiral has never even touched it before..."
"Huh? Is this place sensitive?"
"I...I can't take it anymore...Ugh—"
Inside the study, Fletcher, her face flushed, covered her mouth with both hands and let out a soft moan. Then, her whole body stiffened for a few seconds as if a pause button had been pressed, before she slumped limply onto Xiaobai's lap. Her pretty face was flushed and moist, and her cherry-like mouth opened and closed as she breathed softly.
Upon seeing this, Xiaobai quickly let go of Fletcher's cat ears.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't know you would react so strongly..."
"No, it's alright..." Fletcher sat on the ground like a limp kitten, her hands clinging to Xiaobai's thighs. Upon hearing Xiaobai's apology, she raised her head and gave her a weak smile. "After all, I was the one who said Admiral Lu Lin could touch me as she pleased..."
