Elder brother's garrison

"Your clothes were too dirty before, I took them to be washed." The ship girl attendant took out a set of Admiral Guild work clothes from the ship equipment space and handed them to the black-robed ship girl. "This one is clean, just use this one for now. We are about the same size, so you can wear it however you like."

The black-robed ship girl clutched her work clothes with fear and nodded gratefully to her ship girl attendant.

"...Thank you...Thank you."

"Hmph." The ship girl attendant turned around and said, "Don't misunderstand, I don't have a good impression of you bad ship girls. The reason I gave you new clothes is simply because Admiral Lu Lin allowed you to visit your admiral. I don't want to leave Admiral Lu Lin with the impression that I don't cooperate with her work."

"..." The black-robed ship girl still looked gratefully at the back of her ship girl attendant.

The black-robed ship girl had changed her clothes.

The Admiral's Guild uniform looked smart and smart, but it made the black-robed ship girl look a little inferior and weak, which made her seem somewhat out of place. But no matter what, it was much better than her previous dirty clothes.

"You've changed your clothes, right? Let's go." The ship girl attendant turned around and said to the ship girl in the black robe.

“…Hmm.” The black-robed ship girl nodded. She was about to follow her ship girl attendant when she suddenly lowered her head nervously. “Um…excuse me…could I bring some food in?”

"...What are you doing now?"

“Yes, I’m sorry… but… my admiral… he’s been locked up in solitary confinement for a long time, and the food there isn’t very good. He might be hungry… I think…” The black-robed ship girl nervously clutched at her hem.

"I said, aren't you going a bit too far—do you think the confinement cell is a vacation?" The ship girl attendant frowned, turning to look at the black-robed ship girl. She was somewhat annoyed when she started to say something, but seeing the tense expression on the black-robed ship girl's face, the attendant's frown stiffened for a moment, and finally she sighed and let it go, "...For the sake of Admiral Lu Lin, I'll only allow you to bring over a few pieces of bread at most."

"Thank you! Thank you!" The black-robed ship girl quickly bowed in gratitude.

"There's nothing to thank me for, it's just my last meal before I'm executed." The ship girl attendant lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers.

"..." The black-robed ship girl froze, biting her lip as she nodded.

Led by her ship girl attendant, the black-robed ship girl went to the free shopping area, bought some bread, and then went upstairs.

The Admiral's Guild's solitary confinement room is located on one of the floors of the building. Generally speaking, only those who have seriously violated the law in Chapter Eight are likely to be imprisoned here.

Admiral Ke Yuan is currently being held here.

Admiral Ke Yuan will not stay here for long. This place is merely a "stepping stone" for him, because there are too many things to settle behind him. Until those things are completely settled, Admiral Ke Yuan can only be temporarily detained here, waiting for the final judgment in endless darkness.

When the black-robed ship girl and her attendants arrived at the confinement room floor, they found it filled with hard steel plates and steel bars. The ship girl guards stood guard all around, their eyes grim and serious.

It's less like solitary confinement and more like a prison.

The ship girl attendant walked in front and showed the documents to the ship girl guards. After reading the documents, the ship girl guards only gave the black-robed ship girl a cold look before making way for the two of them.

The black-robed ship girl and her attendant walked down the corridor to the end.

Admiral Ke Yuan was the first and only guest in the Admiral Guild's prison.

When the black-robed ship girl and her attendants arrived at the end of the corridor, they saw a male figure dressed in prison clothes sitting in a special cell at the very back.

The figure sat quietly in a chair with his back to the crowd.

Upon seeing this figure, a look of enthusiasm appeared in the black-robed ship girl's eyes, and she quickly walked over.

"Admiral!"

The black-robed ship girl calls out.

The figures in the cell were quiet and seemed to have no reaction.

"Hey, Ke Yuan, your ship girl has come to see you," the ship girl attendant said coldly to the figure in the cell. "She even bought you something to eat."

"..." The figure remained silent, but when he heard that he had bought something to eat, he trembled slightly.

The black-robed ship girl quickly knelt at the edge of the cell. She unwrapped the bread and stuffed it through the black cell bars.

"Admiral, this is bread..."

wow——

The bread had just been stuffed into the cell when the motionless figure swiftly snatched it away. He bent down with his back to the others and wolfed down the bread, quickly swallowing it down with raucous gulps.

Perhaps because the bread was eaten too quickly, many crumbs were dropped. After finishing the bread, the figure squatted on the ground and carefully picked up the crumbs and put them into his mouth.

"Admiral, are you... are you alright? I... I saw Admiral Lu Lin. She allowed me to see you..." The black-robed ship girl gripped the railing and called out to the figure on the other side.

"..." The figure inside the cell did not react, but kept picking at the bread crumbs on the ground and licking his fingers.

"She's probably gone mad from being locked up," the ship girl attendant said as she approached the black-robed ship girl.

"..." The black-robed ship girl gripped the railing, turned her head, and cautiously spoke to her ship girl attendant, "...Could, could I be alone with the admiral for a while..."

"Don't even think about it, it's impossible." The ship girl attendant shook her head.

"Please... at least... at least on the surface, let me be alone with the admiral for a while," the black-robed ship girl pleaded.

“…Alright then.” The ship girl attendant shook her head, crossed her arms, walked to the corner of the corridor, and disappeared.

After the ship girl attendant disappeared, the black-robed ship girl turned to look at the people in the cell.

The figures in the cell finally stopped moving.

The black-robed ship girl breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the figure in the cell.

"Admiral...I..."

boom! ! !

However, before the black-robed ship girl could finish speaking, the figure in the cell rushed to the bars and slammed his fist against them, making a loud thud.

The black-robed ship girl was startled.

What appeared before the black-robed ship girl was a male face with bloodshot eyes, bared teeth, and bandages wrapped around his face.

"Why—why—why haven't you rescued me yet!!!" Ke Yuan bared his teeth, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, glaring at the black-robed ship girl, and roared in a low voice, "Why are you so slow, why are you so slow!! Just because you don't have my orders, don't you know how to rescue me?! A bunch of idiots!!!"

"Admiral, I... I've contacted Admiral Lu Lin... I heard that only she can save you..." the black-robed ship girl hurriedly said, "Admiral Lu... Admiral Lu Lin has agreed to let me see you..."

"Admiral Lu Lin? What did Admiral Lu Lin say??" Upon hearing Xiao Bai's name, Ke Yuan gripped the railing and stared at the black-robed ship girl, asking, "Quick, quick, has Admiral Lu Lin forgiven me? Has she forgiven me? Is she willing to rescue me?"

"Soon, soon. Although Admiral Lu Lin hasn't agreed yet, as long as I keep pleading..." the black-robed ship girl said hurriedly.

boom! ! !

Before the black-robed ship girl could finish speaking, there was another violent impact.

Ke Yuan grinned and screamed at the black-robed ship girl with hatred.

"Why! Why haven't you convinced Admiral Lu Lin to save me?!" Ke Yuan screamed. "What methods have you used?!"

"I...I knelt down and begged her...I..." the black-robed ship girl replied hastily.

"You bastard! Are you an idiot?!" Ke Yuan slammed his fist on the railing again, screaming at the black-robed ship girl, "Is this the only low-level method you can use?! Do you think Admiral Lu Lin can save me with this kind of method?! Idiot! Idiot! You idiot!!!"

As Admiral Ke Yuan finished speaking, he stretched his hand out over the railing and pointed sharply at the chest of the black-robed ship girl.

"What use do you think I've been for raising you all? The debt of gratitude for raising you, the debt of gratitude for raising you! You won't even make this small sacrifice for me?!"

"Admiral...?"

"What use are ordinary pleas to Admiral Lu Lin?!" Ke Yuan cursed through gritted teeth. "Use your brain! Look down at yourself! With this body of yours, which is useless except for eating, don't you have any inspiration? What do you have left besides this body?! Why don't you use any means necessary to seduce Admiral Lu Lin, to make her infatuated with your only value?! Put aside your dignity, use the lowest, most despicable, and most vile methods to win Admiral Lu Lin's favor, no matter the cost. As long as Admiral Lu Lin is happy, she'll save me with just a word! Do you understand?!

Admiral Ke Yuan's scream rang out.

"Save me! Only you can save me now! You're my only hope! Only you can save me!!!"

"..."

The black-robed ship girl collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Watching her admiral roar like a madman, the black-robed ship girl seemed to have lost her soul, her eyes vacant, staring ahead in disbelief, her face as pale as paper.

Chapter 2886 How about I take you with me?

The news of the research and construction machine escaping in full view of everyone spread like wildfire throughout Chapter Eight.

And so, the entire city of Chapter Eight was once again in an uproar.

On the very afternoon of the day the research and construction machine ran away, countless admirals spontaneously left their homes. They went in groups, wandering through the streets and alleys, leading their ship girl teams, frantically searching for the research and construction machine's whereabouts on the land of the city in Chapter 8, like they were exploring landmines.

Under the commands of the admirals, the destroyers transformed into nimble little whirlwinds, darting, leaping, and maneuvering across rooftops; on the streets, light cruiser girls ran around holding radars high, conducting a thorough search, turning everything upside down, even checking trash cans; even the sky was filled with carrier-based aircraft from the carrier girls, flying in formations, and for the entire afternoon, the city of Chapter Eight was filled with the incessant buzzing and roaring sounds.

In their quest to find traces of the research and construction machine, the admirals of Chapter 8 have pulled out all the stops.

To the admirals' utter despair, even though they had exhausted all available search methods and deployed every ship girl they could, almost turning the entire city of Chapter Eight upside down, the research and construction machine that had grown legs and escaped in full view of everyone still seemed to have vanished into thin air. No matter how much effort the admirals put into searching, they couldn't find even the slightest trace of it.

On the Admiral Forum, posts about research construction machines practically flooded the entire forum.

"Research Construction Machine! Has anyone seen the Research Construction Machine?!"

"I'm on First Street, but I haven't found the research and construction machine here. If any of you guys have seen it on other streets, please tag me! I'm waiting online!"

"Holy crap, I just woke up, what happened?"

"Today, the captain of the scientific research and construction team in the provincial railway system has run away!"

"I'm super!"

"I've been searching for my aircraft carrier girl in the skies above Chapter 8 for five hours now! Where on earth did the research and construction machine go?!"

"What kind of research and construction machine is this? It actually managed to make a fool of the entire Admiral of Chapter 8!"

"unbelievable!"

"Damn it, at least let me see what the research ship girl looks like!"

"That's right, it's not unacceptable for resources to be wasted, but at least I should feel a sense of participation!"

"We've searched Second Street five times, but there's still no news about the research and construction machine!"

"What about Third Street?"

"Number four..."

"..."

Posts appeared like a fountain, and each refresh brought up hundreds more, pushing the previous page to the back of the gate.

The eighth chapter of the Admiral Forum is more lively than ever before.

……

In the temporary garrison headquarters.

Missouri sat on the bench, looking up at the carrier-based aircraft constantly shuttling through the sky.

"Today... is really lively."

Missouri said with a smile.

"That's right, these planes have been buzzing for ages." Wisconsin responded from the ground nearby, propping her chin up with her hand and staring at the sky with a hint of resentment. "I was planning to go back to my room for a beauty nap during my lunch break, but these carrier-based planes have kept me awake."

“Invasion of…privacy…” At the other end of the bench, New Jersey muttered softly, his head bowed.

"I heard from others that the research construction machines disappeared in front of everyone after they were filled up," Iowa said with a smile as she put down her phone. "So now the admirals in Chapter 8 are searching for research construction machines like madmen."

"Wow...no way, that's so stupid." Wisconsin grinned. "Even if these people find the research construction machine, what's the use? The research ship girls can't be theirs."

“That’s the job of an admiral,” Iowa said with a smile. “Even if you can’t get it, it’s always good to be a witness.”

"It seems like the admiral in Chapter 8 is always neglecting his duties."

"However, compared to these admirals, our admiral is much more composed."

“That’s true.” Wisconsin nodded.

The conversation ended, Wisconsin yawned, squatted down and stretched.

Wisconsin is indeed a ship girl; even when squatting on the ground, her balance is still excellent, and she shows no signs of falling when stretching.

As Wisconsin relaxed, her white bodysuit rode up slightly, revealing a section of her slender, snow-white waist and a delicate, clean navel that was faintly visible in the center.

"The admiral doesn't seem to care much about research and construction machines lately."

Wisconsin stretched, sighed, and remarked with emotion.

“After all, the Admiral has more important things to do now,” Missouri said to Wisconsin with a smile. “As for the research and construction machine… since it’s already in the Admiral’s possession, there’s no need to worry about it too much.”

"Wow, here it comes!" Wisconsin pointed at Missouri's smiling face, quickly pouting her snow-white cheeks, and said in an annoyed tone, "It's finally here! Missouri's awful expression—like she thinks she knows everything about the Admiral!"

"Missouri didn't mean that."

"Even breathing is wrong for a winner in life, you idiot!"

"Sigh, what did Missouri do to make her own sister doubt her like this?" Missouri sighed, touching one side of her cheek and talking to herself in a feignedly sorrowful tone.

"You have the nerve to ask?! You didn't come home all night the other day, and you took advantage of New Jersey's ignorance. Don't think that Iowa and I don't know where you went!" Wisconsin pointed angrily at Missouri. "And when you came back this morning, you were covered in the scents of Akagi and the Admiral. You were afraid we wouldn't know where you were the night before and what bad things you did with whom, weren't you!"

"It's a misunderstanding. Missouri was just having a tea party."
