Elder brother's garrison

"It seems... one morning, after waking up, he suddenly disappeared."

"Gone..."

Xiao Bai was stunned by Nan Xing's words.

This is runic script... used to dispel the deep-sea aura within Nanxing's body.

Furthermore, the pigments used for the rune font were specially ordered by Xiaobai from Ella's house. They cannot be removed by ordinary cleaning methods and can only be gradually removed through the shedding of dead skin cells during human metabolism.

Is it possible for this thing to disappear after sleeping?

No... More important than this problem is that Nanxing's body should still contain deep-sea energy. The sudden disappearance of the rune characters is a serious matter...

Xiao Bai quickly stepped forward and grabbed Nan Xing's wrist.

"Sister Nanxing, please wait a moment, give me a few seconds."

Xiao Bai closed his eyes, and his spiritual power spread out, entering Nan Xing's body through her wrist, and began to explore the deep-sea energy within her.

A few seconds passed.

Xiao Bai's investigation is over.

Upon receiving the result, Xiaobai opened her eyes in surprise and looked at Nanxing.

"Huh... Sister Nanxing, the deep-sea energy within you has disappeared!"

“…Hmm.” Nanxing nodded. “I had Grandpa check me before…and I’ve recovered. Grandpa said it was because of your skillful methods.”

"This can't be... I remember that according to the timeframe we agreed on, it shouldn't have healed this quickly." Xiaobai also had a strange expression. She looked at Nanxing's body from head to toe, biting her finger. "This is really strange... It's one thing for the rune characters to disappear, but how come the deep-sea aura also disappeared along with them? Sister Nanxing, why didn't you tell me about this?"

“…I…” Nanxing thought for a moment and said to Xiaobai, “…because…there is no harm?”

"What a strange reason..."

Xiaobai smiled helplessly and released Nanxing's wrist.

Xiaobai thought for a while.

She recalled the state of Nanxing's behavior during the time she spent with him.

Nanxing has been acting normally during this period... and the things she does every day shouldn't be anything particularly unique.

Xiao Bai thought to himself.

Suddenly, Xiaobai remembered the fleeting glint in Nanxing's eyes that she had seen when they were taking a bath together earlier.

"Sister Nanxing."

"Ok?"

"Speaking of which, I just saw your eyes shining, but I'm not sure if I saw it wrong."

"It emits...light?"

Nanxing, holding his jeans, looked at Xiaobai with a blank expression.

It seems that Nanxing is completely unaware of this matter.

“…Okay.” Xiaobai looked at Nanxing for a while, and finally smiled. She shook her head, “It’s okay, it’s okay…just pretend I saw it wrong.”

"..."

Nanxing listened to Xiaobai's words and then continued to put on her clothes.

Although the little incident that happened to Nanxing felt rather strange, it didn't seem to have any negative effects overall, so there was no need to pay too much attention to it for the time being.

Xiao Bai temporarily put the matter of Nanxing in her heart.

After changing clothes, Xiaobai accompanied Nanxing out of the locker room and went to the cafeteria for dinner.

This bath took quite a long time, and Nanxing didn't recover from her dizziness until after dinner.

Nanxing Xiaobai was also worried about letting her go back in this state.

After thinking it over, Xiaobai invited Nanxing to stay at the naval base for one night and arranged for the ship girls to give her a single room.

Chapter 3009 Xiaobai's Selfish Motives

Xiao Bai admitted to herself that she did have a little selfish motive in letting Nan Xing stay overnight at the garrison.

Although Nanxing is not Xiaobai's favorite person, she is someone Xiaobai likes very much. It would be a lie to say that Xiaobai is not hoping for something to happen with Nanxing that could rapidly increase their intimacy level.

Xiao Bai had been thinking that since Liu Nanxing was staying overnight at the naval base, perhaps the two of them could have a chance to continue developing their friendship and achieve something like chatting about girlish gossip late at night while falling asleep in each other's arms in a warm bed. That would be wonderful.

So this is such a great opportunity!

But a pity.

Xiao Bai's little plan still failed.

Although Nanxing didn't refuse Xiaobai's suggestion to stay at the hotel because of her ultimate trust in Xiaobai, Xiaobai still overlooked one point: soaking in the repair pool for almost a whole day would have a significant impact on Nanxing's body.

Night had just fallen over the sky.

Before Xiaobai could even suggest to Nanxing that they go to her dorm for a chat, she saw Nanxing, dizzy and unsteady, climb onto the bed, then slump onto it with a thud, her bottom sticking up in the soft mattress, and fall into a deep sleep like a baby.

Xiao Bai stood by Nan Xing's bedside, looking at the beautiful woman who had fallen asleep almost instantly, and could only sigh in disappointment.

"Let's not let Sister Nanxing stay with me for so long tomorrow..." Xiaobai reached out and pushed the sleeping Nanxing down.

Xiao Bai knelt by the bed, manipulating Nan Xing's defenseless limbs, helping her take off her shoes and socks, remove her clothes, then change her into pajamas, fix her hair, and gently place her into the warm bed.

Nanxing was fast asleep, her limbs so supple they seemed to have no bones.

This completely unguarded attitude towards the surrounding environment made Xiaobai very worried about Nanxing's daily life.

After doing all this, Xiaobai placed Nanxing's clothes on the bedside table, and then put her phone, keys and other personal items on top of the clothes.

Just as Xiaobai was about to leave.

Suddenly, the phone on top of Nanxing's clothes lit up.

Xiaobai, whose attention was drawn to Nanxing's phone, stopped in her tracks and curiously glanced at the screen.

Nanxing's social media accounts are usually in an "invisible" state. Not only that, her account has also set up a series of self-isolating functions, such as no one can add her as a friend, no one can chat with her privately through group chats, no one can tap her profile picture, and no one can invite her to any group chat. Even the family chat group that the top ten admirals have created was only added by Duan Shuiliu, who specifically contacted her to tell her that Xiaobai was also in the group and asked her to enter the group chat number to join.

Therefore, the only people who can contact Nanxing on her social media accounts are her ship girls.

It is impolite to look at someone else's phone.

But Xiaobai thought about it and realized that he and Nanxing had such an open and honest relationship that they could hug each other without feeling awkward. Besides, Nanxing had seen the photo of Missouri on his phone today, and that photo was clearly something Missouri only wanted to see. So, to be fair, he decided not to touch Nanxing's phone, but just stand in front of it and look at the ship girl chat messages that popped up. That would even things out.

Little White would never admit that she did this out of curiosity about what Nanxing usually talked about with the ship girls.

Xiao Bai stood in front of Nan Xing's hot clothes and stared at the message that popped up on her phone for a while.

really.

The messages popping up on Nanxing's phone were all from her ship girls.

"Admiral, we've received a report from the newbie naval base!"

"You're going to spend the night at Admiral Lu Lin's place, right?"

"Admiral, sob sob sob, you've finally grown up, sob sob, I'm so touched—"

"Good luck, Admiral! I'll cook you red bean rice at the naval base!"

"Take down Admiral Lu Lin tonight!"

"Go for it, Admiral! Don't forget what I taught you last time! I learned that after watching the expansion pack for a long time!"

"..."

A variety of messages popped up on the screen, then disappeared in a flash.

There are quite a few ship girls who have contacted Nanxing.

These messages either celebrated Nanxing spending the night at Xiaobai's house or encouraged Nanxing to do something.

Xiao Bai watched for a while, then finally straightened up with a wry smile and looked back at Nan Xing, who was lying on the bed, sleeping peacefully.

Nanxing, lying on the bed, was breathing evenly and had a peaceful expression.

"Why do I feel like Nanxing's ship girls are so unrestrained..." Xiaobai stopped looking at Nanxing's phone and smiled at Nanxing on the bed. "These ship girls are so idle all day long, all they do is make jokes about the admiral, just like my ship girls."

Xiao Bai came to the bedside and patted Nan Xing's snow-white hand.

Goodnight, Sister Nanxing.

After saying goodbye to Nanxing, Xiaobai left Nanxing's room.

Outside the dormitory corridor, it was already getting dark.

The starlight gradually shone brighter within the curtain.

Xiao Bai leaned against the railing and gazed at the long-lost night for a while, then pulled up her collar and sniffed.

A very strong shower gel scent.

These past few days, Xiaobai has been soaking in the repair pool, and has finally completely washed away the osmanthus fragrance from the Deep Sea Akagi enchantment on his body.

But...

It's probably not very useful anyway.

This taste will return to Xiaobai sooner or later.

"...Let's go back to taking a bath."

Xiao Bai clutched his collar, looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself.

……

Return to the repair pool.

Xiaobai took off her clothes and walked into the steamy restoration room with a bath towel hanging on her back. Before she could even feel the warmth of returning to her homeland, she saw a huge, bulky, square-shaped body diligently cleaning the floor with a floor brush amidst the white mist.

Brushing, brushing, brushing——

Under Xiaobai's gaze, the square body swiped left and right, its two mechanical tentacles tightly wrapped around various cleaning tools. The bulky steel body was wearing an apron, its four mechanical tentacles were wearing long boots, and a sanitary cap was covering the top of the display screen.

"Huh? A research construction machine?" Little White looked at the research construction machine in surprise and exclaimed.

"Creak?" The research and construction machine raised its head, saw Little White, and quickly raised a tentacle, shaking it at Little White.

"Are you cleaning?" Xiaobai walked up to the research and construction machine and asked curiously.

"crunch-"

"It's so late, you should go and rest. It's very clean here, and there are ship girls who clean it regularly." Xiaobai raised her hand and touched the display screen of the research construction machine, smiling at it. "Don't you have a research ship girl in your belly? Won't working so hard affect your health?"

"Crunch!" The research and construction machine swung its display screen at Xiaobai, and then several tentacles began to move rapidly towards Xiaobai.

It seems the research and construction machine is trying to convey some kind of message to the newbie.

Unfortunately, this level of complex mechanical sign language is completely incomprehensible to beginners.

"Alright, since you think it's fine, then it'll do like this." In the end, Xiaobai could only continue its work as a research and construction machine. Xiaobai smiled, gently patted the research and construction machine's head, then walked to the edge of the repair pool, lifted the towel, and slowly bent down to sit inside.

"Creak--"

Behind Xiaobai, the research and construction machine, holding the ground brush, stopped its operation, its display screen staring intently at Xiaobai's back.

Xiaobai felt the gaze on her back and turned around to look.

brush brush --

The research and development machine is working at breakneck speed.

Xiao Bai stayed in the repair pool for a while, then turned around, rested his chin on his hands, and watched the research and construction machine brushing the ground.

"Scientific research and construction machine".

"Creak?"

"I suddenly have a craving for fruit, could you cut up a fruit platter for me?"

"Crench!"

Upon receiving the command, the research and construction machine swiftly extended its tentacles into the cabin, then pulled out a gleaming kitchen knife, a flat and wide cutting board, a large crystal plate, and a bag of crystal-clear fruit.

The tentacles of the research and construction machine picked up the cutting board and the crystal plate respectively, and then one tentacle nimbly wrapped around the knife, swiftly slicing down on a bag of fruit.

A flash of light appeared on the blade.

The fruit was rapidly peeled, cut into suitable shapes, and then quickly arranged on a crystal plate by mechanical tentacles, forming a colorful and lifelike coiled dragon.
