“Last night…” Xiaobai murmured, turning back to look at Missouri.
So... Jean Bart stayed in his Missouri room all night without anyone noticing...?
“Missouri, Jean Bart said she stayed in your room all night,” Little White said to Missouri. “Did you know about this?”
"Missouri's room?" Missouri pointed to herself, glancing down at the plastic bags scattered on the floor. "Hmm... judging from the number of red bean bread rolls that have been opened, she's definitely been here for quite a while..."
"Haven't you noticed?"
"Reporting to the Admiral, this was the first time Missouri had noticed Senior Jean Bart."
“Eh…” Xiaobai stared at Jean Bart with a puzzled look on his face.
"Oh... Admiral, I'm so sorry, I apologize, I apologize!" Jean Bart clasped his hands together and raised them above his head, nervously apologizing to Little White and Missouri, "I'm so sorry for sneaking in! I'm really sorry!"
“Missouri doesn’t mind if you come here as a guest,” Missouri replied.
“We don’t blame you for sneaking in.” Xiaobai shook her head at Jean Bart, then reached out and gently grasped Jean Bart’s hand. “Jean Bart, listen to me.”
"Huh?" Jeanbart looked at his hand being gently held by Xiaobai.
“Missouri’s senses are among the sharpest even in our naval base,” Xiaobai said curiously to Jean Bart. “And because I’m with Misssouri almost every day, I know she’s the kind of ship girl who doesn’t drift through life aimlessly. Someone like her would meticulously notice everything that happens around her, and it’s impossible for her to ignore someone right in front of her… So, the reason Misssouri hasn’t noticed you, Jean Bart, is it because you did something to her?”
“Eh… no, no, Missouri is one of our comrades, how could I possibly lay a hand on a comrade…” Jean Bart muttered.
"But Missouri has never noticed you."
"It's normal that Missouri doesn't notice me..." Jean Bart grumbled, sounding rather resentful. "On the contrary, it's abnormal that you, Admiral, have been so precisely aware of my situation... even yesterday..."
"Ok?"
Xiao Bai looked at Jean Bart with a puzzled expression.
Jean Bart's words were rambling and left Xiaobai somewhat confused.
It's normal that Missouri can't see Jean Bart; it's abnormal that someone like me can always see Jean Bart.
What kind of strange logic is this...?
It would be strange if Jean Bart wasn't noticeable, given how beautiful and adorable he is.
Seeing Xiaobai's gaze fixed on her, Bal struggled for a while before finally giving up and letting out a helpless sigh.
"Sigh... Admiral, please let go of me." Jean Bart looked pitifully at the hand that was being held by Little White.
"Oh." Little White released Jean Bart's hand.
Jean Bart withdrew his delicate hand and gently rubbed it.
"...Did I hurt you?" Xiaobai asked with concern, looking at Jean Bart's actions.
“No, not really… The Admiral’s touch was very gentle. I’m just not used to being touched.” Jean Bart said, then closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and lowered her hands. She then said to Shiro, “Admiral, it’s like this… Actually, I have a kind of ability that I don’t let others notice.”
"Huh?" Xiaobai was stunned. "The ability to go unnoticed? A ship equipment skill?"
"Hey! That's right! Ship equipment skills!" Jean Bart nodded quickly and said to Xiaobai, "That's right, it's ship equipment skills!"
"So you're a ship girl born with skills too..." Xiaobai covered her mouth, looking at Jean Bart with some surprise. "Oh...right, you're a special ship girl, born with max level and training is easy for you, so it doesn't seem impossible for you to have awakened skills from birth..."
"Ahem." Jean Bart coughed. "Well... anyway... that's how it is."
So what are your ship equipment skills?
“…Didn’t I just say that!” Jean Bart quickly waved his arms and said to Little White, “My ability is to not be noticed by others!”
"...But I've always noticed you."
"That's why I said it! Admiral, something's wrong with you!" Jean Bart pouted, saying with great resentment, "If I use my skill, no one around me will notice me, and I can openly skip training and expeditions, and slack off and do whatever I want. But no matter how I use this ability, it has absolutely no effect on the Admiral. The Admiral can always find me! Admiral, you're the one who's really acting strange!"
"Hey... but I didn't do anything... could it be that your abilities are malfunctioning?"
Xiao Bai scratched his head, looking completely innocent.
"No way!" Jean Bart immediately perked up upon hearing Xiao Bai's words. "It's incredibly effective, okay!"
Then, as if to show something to Xiaobai, Jeanbart quickly walked to Missouri's door, pushed it open, and peeked out.
Coincidentally.
Just as Jean Bart peeked outside, a ship girl from the Nia family was walking towards them.
Chapter 2671 The Power of Special Ship Girls!
"Admiral, come here quickly!" Jean Bart waved to Little White.
"What's wrong?" Xiaobai looked at Jean Bart's hurried appearance, slowly walked to her side, and also looked towards the door.
"Admiral, have you seen that ship girl outside?"
"Hmm... I see her." Xiaobai nodded, staring at the ship girl outside the door for a while. "These are ship girls from Nia's family, I think their name is Formidable?"
Passing by from outside the door was a ship girl with long, ivory-white twin ponytails and a black and white ladylike dress. Xiaobai remembered that when she first came to Nia's side, Nia excitedly pulled her to this ship girl named Fearless and had her introduce herself.
Nia's formidable one is an aircraft carrier ship girl who looks about sixteen or seventeen years old, with fair skin, a beautiful face, and a rather impressive bust, inherited from her family.
"Huh?" Just as Xiaobai peeked out to look at Kewei, Kewei also noticed Xiaobai.
Upon seeing Xiaobai, Kewei initially showed a surprised expression, but then she changed her direction of walking, came to Xiaobai, and her surprised expression turned into respect.
"Admiral Lu Lin, greetings. I didn't expect to meet you here." Kewei lifted the hem of her skirt, bowed slightly to Xiaobai, and gave a very proper bow.
"Good morning, Ke Wei," Xiao Bai said with a smile.
"Hmm?" Ke Wei was somewhat surprised to hear Xiao Bai's words. "Admiral Lu Lin, you still remember my name?"
"How could I not remember? Didn't you introduce yourself to me that night?" Xiaobai smiled.
“…I see.” Ke Wei smiled slightly at Xiao Bai, a look of delight on his face. “I thought there were too many people introducing themselves that day, and that you, Admiral Lu Lin, couldn’t remember so many names.”
“Your name is very nice, so I remembered it,” Xiaobai said.
"That's a big plus for a lady." Ke Wei smiled at Xiao Bai. "Admiral Lu Lin, don't you usually stay with the Commander? What brings you here?"
"Ah... my ship girl lives here, so I came over for a visit." Xiaobai pointed to the door behind her.
"Oh, so you're just visiting..." Kewei followed Xiaobai's gaze and saw the room full of red bean bread, and Missouri standing inside. "So much bread..."
“These loaves of bread were won by Missouri from the Royal Ark at your naval base.”
"Ah~ no wonder." Ke Wei covered her mouth and smiled at Xiao Bai, "Royal Ark has been talking about this at the naval base all this time, she usually..."
But in front of Xiaobai, Weiwei started talking about the Royal Ark of their garrison.
Xiaobai was listening, but halfway through, she noticed a sneaky figure approaching Kewei from behind.
Xiao Bai looked behind Ke Wei.
Approaching the formidable figure was a pink-haired ship girl wearing a black top hat and dressed like a magician.
Wait, isn't that Jean Bart?
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai glanced to the side.
Jean Bart was indeed no longer by his side.
Xiao Bai stared blankly at Ke Wei again.
Despite Jean Bart's approach, Formidable seemed completely oblivious, still quietly telling Little White about the Royal Ark.
Jean Bart stood there in front of the formidable woman and raised his hand to gently wave in front of her cheek.
The formidable gaze seemed to pierce through Jean Bart and land on the little white man.
Jean Bart turned around and looked at Little White with a smug expression, as if to say, "Admiral, look how amazing my skills are!"
Xiao Bai smiled wryly.
When Jean Bart saw Xiao Bai's wry smile, he thought Xiao Bai was just being perfunctory. Immediately, Jean Bart pouted, revealing a clear expression of unhappiness.
Jean Bart looked back at Formidable, his gaze moving down until it settled on Formidable's chest.
Jean Bart's mind raced for a moment, then his eyes lit up as if he had thought of something.
Under Xiaobai's watchful eye, Jean Bart walked up behind Kewei, and then, in front of Xiaobai, reached out with both hands, wrapped them around Kewei's arms, and grabbed at Kewei's chest.
"Eh?!" Xiaobai exclaimed in surprise.
"Admiral Lu Lin?" Ke Wei was startled by Xiao Bai. "What's wrong with you?"
“Uh…you…you…” Xiaobai stammered, pointing at Ke Wei’s chest.
"Huh?" Kewei was taken aback and looked down at her bust.
At this moment, the formidable nature is being wantonly ravaged by Jean Bart.
But even so.
Looking at the place where he was being held, Kewei still showed a strange expression and looked up at Xiaobai again.
"Admiral Lu Lin, is there something dirty on my chest?"
"Uh...no, it's nothing..."
Xiaobai swallowed hard, then shook her head hesitantly.
“Then I’ll continue. Fang Zhou, her…” Ke Wei continued.
"..."
Little White stares blankly as Jean Bart plays pranks on Formidable behind his back, while Formidable seems completely unaware that he is being teased, calmly talking to Little White.
Three minutes passed just like that.
These three minutes were probably the most awkward three minutes of Xiaobai's life.
"So Fangzhou... ha... ha..." Finally, a faint blush rose to her cheeks, her breathing grew heavier, and she looked up at Xiaobai with a puzzled expression, her gaze somewhat unfocused. "Eh... Admiral Lu Lin... this is strange... I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable..."
"If you're feeling unwell, go and rest!" Xiaobai quickly said.
"Um... I'm sorry... Admiral Lu Lin, it seems I must take my leave now..." Ke Wei wiped his clean forehead in confusion. "Um... then I'll go ahead..."
"Would you like to take some red bean bread back with you?" Xiaobai quickly squatted down, picked up a large handful of red bean bread, and came up.
"Huh? That's not necessary..."
"Take it, take it!" Xiaobai quickly pushed the red bean bread toward Kewei's arms, then subtly slapped away Jean Bart's hand that was pressing on Kewei's chest.
The fearsome one was holding a huge pile of red bean bread, completely at a loss.
"Well... thank you, Admiral Lu Lin." Ke Wei, holding the red bean bread, bowed slightly to Xiao Bai. "I will find time to repay you for this gift."
"You don't need to be so polite... It's my fault for being so rude..."
"Ok?"
"No, it's nothing... You can go now..."
"Admiral Lu Lin, let's talk in detail next time we meet." A faint blush still lingered on Ke Wei's face, making her look exceptionally charming. She smiled slightly at Xiao Bai, then slowly left, clutching the red bean bread in her arms.
The fearsome figure skipped and hopped as he walked away.
He seemed happy because he received a lot of red bean bread.
Jean Bart watched the formidable figure depart, let out a long sigh, and looked down at her palm.
"This ship girl is amazing... This feeling... Hmm?"
Jean Bart was muttering to himself when he suddenly felt a gaze pierce him, causing him intense pain.
Jean Bart looked up and saw Little White staring straight at him. Although his gaze was still gentle, it seemed rather unfriendly.
"Huh? Admiral?"
“Jean Barth… how could you… do such a thing to the ship girls of the Nia family…” Xiaobai stepped forward, somewhat angry.
"Uh... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... I think I went too far..." Rang Bard immediately rubbed his hands together, pitifully apologizing to Xiaobai, "I just wanted to show the Admiral my abilities... I'm really sorry..."
“Jean Barth, you…” Little White opened his mouth, then, as if lost in thought, continued, “Have you played this prank on other people like this?”
"No! Absolutely not! Admiral, you have to believe me!" Jean Bart immediately raised his hands. "This is the first time!"
"That's the last time," Xiaobai instructed Jean Bart. "You must never do this to anyone else again... If you keep doing this, you'll become a bad kid sooner or later, and no one will like you anymore."
“The admiral is right…” Jean Bart pitifully clasped his hands together.
"Sigh..." Xiaobai sighed, looking helplessly at Jean Bart, her eyes flickering.
Xiao Bai never expected that Jean Bart's ability to "make others not notice him" would have such an exaggerated effect.
