Elder brother's garrison

"Xiaobai, you're back!" As soon as Nia saw Xiaobai return to the house, she sat up straight and her expression instantly brightened.

"Yes, I'm back," Xiaobai said with a smile.

"I vaguely heard you talking to someone outside the door. Who is it?"

"My ship girl."

"Ah, I see!" Nia nodded with a smile, then eagerly ran forward, grabbed Xiaobai's hand, and grinned foolishly at her.

If time permits, and if Xiaobai doesn't mind, Nia says she could stay by Xiaobai's side forever without getting tired of it.

Just as Nia and Xiaobai were about to speak, they suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.

"Commander? Ah, Commander, you're here." A tall ship girl with long black hair, wearing a revealing red patterned bathrobe that showed off her impressive figure, appeared at the door.

"Da Feng?"

"Commander, honestly, you've come to visit Admiral Lu Lin again."

"I haven't had much work lately... Is there something you need from Taihou?" Nia smiled sweetly at Taihou and then asked.

"There are two ship girls I don't recognize outside who want to visit." Taihou raised her arm and pointed in the direction of the temporary naval base gate. "They said they specifically want to see you, Commander."

“Me?” Nia asked, puzzled.

“Yes, I told them before that I could relay any messages to them, but they insisted on seeing the Commander in person.” Taihou sighed, looking quite helpless. “I initially thought they were like the others who came to my door recently, trying to befriend the Commander, so I was going to send them away. But they said they were friends of the Commander and had important business to attend to, so I had no choice but to come and find you, Commander.”

“Friends…” Nia looked puzzled as she listened to Taihou’s words. “I should only know the ship girls from my own naval base and Shiro’s family…”

"Well! So they're just liars!" Upon hearing this, Taihou gritted her teeth, pulled a broom from her ship's equipment space, rolled up her sleeves, and stormed off. "I knew the Commander was so fond of her, it's impossible for him to be secretly knowing so many little pests outside! They really are liars, I'll drive them away right now!"

“There’s no need to rush.” Xiaobai seemed thoughtful after hearing Taihou’s words, then smiled knowingly. She gently raised her hand to stop Taihou from leaving, and then said to Nia, “Hmm… is it possible that the admirals of these two ship girls know us? Anyway, we don’t have anything to do right now, so why don’t we go and take a look?”

"Huh... is that even possible?" Nia asked, confused.

"Let's go take a look, it'll be fun, even if it's just for entertainment." Xiaobai nodded with a smile, as if she had already guessed what would happen.

Chapter 2787 The Fun is Coming!

Xiao Bai has a very high "prestige value" in Nia's Garrison.

So even though Nia's Taihou was so fierce and spoiled, she still obediently put down her broom after hearing Xiaobai's call.

"Hmm... Is Admiral Lu Lin still going to check on those pests outside?" Da Feng mumbled as she asked.

"Going won't hurt me," Xiaobai said with a smile.

"OK then……"

The three of them walked out the door, and the corridor was bathed in sunshine.

Xiaobai was about to go downstairs when she suddenly heard a rustling sound beside her. She turned her head and saw Nia's Taifeng, who had been exposing her chest just moments before, carefully adjusting her bathrobe, pulling up the open neckline to cover up the previously overly white and deep-set areas.

After being adjusted, Taiho's outfit instantly became very positive.

Seemingly noticing Xiaobai's gaze, Nia's Dafeng looked up at Xiaobai while tidying her clothes.

"Admiral Lu Lin?"

"Dafeng, what are you doing..."

“Get dressed,” Nia’s Taiho said matter-of-factly. “Since we’re going out to meet guests, we should dress properly.”

"...before that."

"Of course, that's to seduce the Commander, that's why I dressed up like before in the naval base!" Taihou said, raising her chin without batting an eye. "But Taihou doesn't want to seduce anyone other than the Commander, so she dresses properly after leaving the base."

"I see." Xiaobai nodded with a smile. "Keep it up!"

"Huh? What's going on? Admiral Lu Lin, do you mean you're supporting Taifeng?" Upon hearing Xiaobai's words, Taifeng immediately clenched her hands in front of her chest, her face full of surprise.

"I support you," Xiaobai smiled at Dafeng.

"Oh my gosh—Admiral Lu Lin, you're such a kind person!" Taihou opened her mouth, her eyes blurry with tears of emotion. "Taihou will definitely live up to your expectations and obtain the Commander's Oath Ring as soon as possible!"

The group left the dormitory and arrived at the gate of the temporary garrison.

When Xiaobai and his group arrived, they saw that the gate of the temporary naval base was wide open, and the steps on both sides were full of ship girls. On the street outside the gate, two unfamiliar ship girls were standing outside with their heads down, not saying a word.

On the steps in front of the gate, Cleveland from Nia's family, Des Moines from Lorene's family, and Saratoga from Xiaobai's family were also there. These people stood with their hands on their hips, staring at the ship girls outside the gate without saying a word, until they heard the footsteps of Xiaobai and the other two behind them, and then they all turned around to look.

"Admiral!"

"Admiral!"

"Baby!"

"There are so many people at the door." Xiaobai walked to the door, first glancing at the ship girls on the steps, then looking at the two ship girls with their heads down outside the door, "Oh... are these the ship girl guests who said they insisted on seeing Nia in person?"

"Yes, they won't leave no matter how we try to get them to leave."

"Oh……"

Xiaobai listened to the ship girls' words and nodded, then smiled slightly at the two ship girls outside the door.

Seemingly sensing the arrival of Xiaobai and the other two, the two ship girls outside the door both looked up at them.

Upon seeing the faces of the two ship girls, Nia was first taken aback, and then her expression quickly turned sour.

—These two ship girls are actually the same two ship girls who were with Admiral Ke Yuan when he surrounded Nia this morning!

Nia instinctively sensed something was wrong.

She instinctively felt that the appearance of these two ship girls was definitely not a good thing.

"Little, Little White, I don't know them, let's go back quickly..." Nia hurriedly grabbed Little White's sleeve and pleaded with her, "Don't pay any attention to them..."

"Going back so soon?" Xiaobai asked back.

"Go back quickly, go back quickly..." Nia said anxiously.

However, at this point, it seemed that Nia had no choice but to agree.

When the two ship girls outside the door saw Xiaobai appear, a hint of triumph flashed in their eyes. Then they gasped, their faces filled with terror, as if they hadn't expected Xiaobai's appearance at all. They covered a certain spot on their clothes tightly and backed away.

"What are you hiding?" On the steps, some sharp-eyed ship girls noticed the actions of the two ship girls and couldn't help but ask.

"No, it's nothing! We'll leave now, we'll leave now!" The two ship girls quickly lowered their heads, making as if they were about to leave.

"You come and go as you please? Sneaking around like this, stop right there!" Several ship girls rushed forward, blocking the ship girls' escape route. Then, one ship girl ran up quickly and reached out to the place that the two ship girls were covering. "You two are sneaking around like this. You try to run away as soon as you see Admiral Lu Lin. Do you have some shady business to hide? Take it out!"

The two groups of ship girls pulled and tugged at each other for a while.

Finally, amidst the sound of fabric being torn, the two ship girl guests clutched their chests and collapsed to the ground.

"Got it! Huh? This is... an envelope?" The ship girl looked suspicious as she took the envelope from the customer, examining the cover. "Hmm... it says 'For my Commander'? What does that mean?"

"Bring it up and let us take a look," Xiaobai said to the ship girl below.

Just as Xiaobai said those words, the two ship girls who were clutching their chests and slumped on the ground breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The ship girl, holding the envelope, approached Xiaobai and the other two with a puzzled expression and handed the envelope to Xiaobai with both hands.

Xiao Bai took the envelope and first examined the outer cover.

The envelope was made of kraft paper and had a strong smell of ink on it, along with a faint, pleasant fragrance from being carried close to the ship girl's body. The wording on the envelope was very simple; only the words "To Admiral Nia" were written on the front, and nothing else.

Xiaobai handed the envelope to Nia.

"Nia, it seems to be for you."

"Huh? This..." Nia looked at the envelope Xiaobai handed her. She had a strong sense of unease, but Xiaobai was right in front of her, so she couldn't refuse. She could only bite the bullet and take the envelope, tear off the outer kraft paper, take out the letter, and glance at it.

Inside the kraft paper were neatly written characters in fountain pen.

Nia looked down for a moment, then her whole body felt as if struck by lightning. Her face drained of color, she gasped, her hands trembled, and the paper in her hands fell to the ground.

"No...no, it's not like that...I didn't..." Nia's eyes instantly turned red, and she trembled all over with fear, tears streaming down her face. "Xiao, Xiaobai...this is fake, I didn't, I didn't do anything...they, they're here to hurt me! Xiaobai, you...you can't look! You absolutely can't look!"

As Nia spoke, she even leaned on Xiaobai's arm and began to beg.

The ship girls present were all shocked by Nia's transformation.

Hearing Nia's pleading words, Xiaobai gently patted the back of Nia's hand, smiled slightly at her, and then silently bent down to pick up the letter from the ground under Nia's almost desperate gaze.

The contents of this letter were mostly boastful words.

Xiao Bai read it briefly and found phrases like, "Talking with Admiral Nia was like a gentle spring breeze, bringing me profound enlightenment," "Admiral Nia's insights and realizations truly put us to shame," "Today's discussion will be etched in our memories," and "Regarding your two friends, I fully agree with your views and actions," "My door is always open to you," and "Please keep today's discussion confidential, especially regarding your two treacherous friends; this is a major secret between us."

At the bottom of the letter, there was no signature, but only the words "Your new comrade-in-arms, respectfully."

Although the letter said nothing in particular, the vague praise and the request for confidentiality made it seem as if it said everything.

Xiaobai folded the letters and silently looked at the two ship girls who were slumped on the ground.

The two ship girls felt Shiro's gaze and were so frightened that they quickly hugged each other.

"Are you Admiral Ke Yuan's ship girls?" Xiao Bai asked.

"No, no, no, we are not, we are not!" the two ship girls quickly denied.

"If you're not, you're not. Anyway, we can just check with the Admiral's Guild and they'll know whose ship girls you are," Xiaobai said again.

"..." The two ship girls fell silent and lowered their heads.

Xiaobai then looked at Nia.

"Little...Little White, you...you listen to my explanation, I didn't talk to Admiral Ke Yuan...no, I, I did meet with him today, but as I told you, um...I, I didn't talk to him that much, he..." Nia panicked and hurriedly explained to Little White.

Seeing Nia's nervous expression, Xiaobai gently patted the back of Nia's hand, then tilted her head to look at the two ship girls on the ground.

"Are you going to stay and watch the show?" Xiaobai asked.

"Uh... Excuse me! Farewell!" The two ship girls quickly stood up, bowed to Xiaobai and his group, and then left as if fleeing for their lives, clutching their chests.

The surrounding ship girls remained quiet, all staring at Nia with shocked expressions.

Nia panicked under everyone's gaze. She clutched Little White tightly, her breathing erratic, tears streaming down her face.

Nia never expected that Admiral Ke Yuan would use this method to frame her!

He actually used this method to sow discord between himself and Xiaobai!

However, the most terrifying thing is that Nia really couldn't produce any evidence to prove her innocence regarding what happened.

She could only prove that she had met Admiral Ke Yuan, but she couldn't prove what she had said in their conversation—and Xiao Bai had caught Admiral Ke Yuan sending her a letter. Nia suddenly felt a sense of despair, as if she were trapped in a scheme and completely powerless to turn back.

"Xiaobai, you, you have to believe me... I really didn't do anything with Admiral Ke Yuan... He framed me, I..."

"Nia, come with me." Xiaobai shook her head, interrupting Nia, and pulled her away by the wrist.

A distraught Nia staggered after Xiaobai amidst the gazes of the crowd.

The ship girls on the steps watched this scene in silence, then turned to look outside the door.

On the street outside, the admirals passing by looked at them as if they were watching a good show.

"What are you looking at! Get away from me!"

"close the door!"

The ship girls on the steps chased away the crowd, quickly closed the gate, and bolted it shut.

Chapter 2788 I'm coming clean.

The scene that had just unfolded in front of the temporary garrison gate was witnessed by all the admirals passing by.

Even though the temporary naval base was now closed and locked, the admirals on the street still looked surprised and reluctant to leave.

"Hey? What just happened?"

"This must be the naval base of the three female admirals who have special ship girls, right? I remember they were very close."

"Judging from this situation... it seems they had a fight?"

"Goodness, I'm totally confused... Did anyone hear the whole thing?"

"I me me!"

"Simply put, Admiral Nia and Admiral Ke Yuan made a secret deal, and their correspondence was caught red-handed by their friends?"

"Unbelievable! There's even a plot like this!"

"It seems the relationship between these three girls isn't as genuine as we thought..."

Outside the temporary garrison, passing admirals were discussing amongst themselves.
