Elder brother's garrison

Did your pursuers come looking for you later?

“They’ve contacted me,” Tirpitz said.

"Oh... I didn't do anything too outrageous to you, did I?" Xiaobai asked.

The pursuer seemed quite menacing at the time, with an expression that said, "I'm sworn enemies with Tirpitz." Xiaobai is still quite interested in the part where the pursuer later encounters Tirpitz.

"...Does it count if I sign it?" Tirpitz replied.

"Huh?" Xiaobai was taken aback. "You want an autograph?"

"Hmm." Tirpitz sighed, looking down at the small bowl of white rice in front of him.

As if to confirm Tirpitz's words, just as Tirpitz was looking down at her rice, the pursuer, who was sitting in the distance and was still wearing a vest and slippers, came running over with a bowl of rice in her hand: "Teacher Beizhai, what do you want to eat? I'll get you some!"

Xiao Bai stared in shock at the pursuer who seemed like a completely different person from before.

The pursuer had been charging towards Tirpitz with an attitude of "two tigers cannot share one mountain," but now she has unexpectedly become a fan of Tirpitz.

What exactly did Tirpitz do?

"Instant noodles."

"Uh...instant noodles are fattening, let's switch to something else."

"potato chips."

"...How about I put some meat on your plate, Mr. Beizhai?"

“Alright,” Tirpitz nodded.

The pursuer, having gotten the chance to serve Tirpitz some food, was overjoyed and quickly reached out with his chopsticks to pick up several pieces of meat and vegetables from a place Tirpitz couldn't reach, placing them in Tirpitz's rice bowl.

"What does 'Teacher Beizhai' mean?" Xiaobai asked curiously.

"Of course, it's Teacher Beizhai..."

"Ahem!" Tirpitz suddenly perked up at this moment, picked up his rice bowl, and said, "I want to eat vegetables!"

The pursuer and Tirpitz exchanged a glance, and then the pursuer showed an expression of understanding.

"I'll put some vegetables in the teacher's bowl right now!" The pursuer added another small chopstickful of vegetables to Tirpitz's bowl.

"What does 'Chaser, Teacher Beizai' mean?" Xiaobai suddenly felt that these two ship girls were hiding something from him.

"Uh... it's just a nickname... like... like my Flower Q sister," the pursuer stammered.

"Oh..." Xiaobai looked at the pursuer with some hesitation, "Speaking of the pursuer, aren't you going to change your clothes?"

"Let's wait until tomorrow. I'll go to the clothing store to buy some clothes."

"..." Xiaobai still looked at the pursuers with some suspicion.

Just then, Tirpitz picked up a piece of meat that Akagi had fried until it was shiny with oil with his chopsticks and held it to Shiro's mouth.

"Admiral, ah."

"what?"

"Open your mouth."

"Oh." Little White opened his mouth, and Tirpitz took the opportunity to put the meat into his own mouth.

Once Xiaobai got his hands on the meat, he gave up asking about Teacher Beizhai.

Seeing Xiaobai's expression, Tirpitz and the pursuers secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Little White happily chewed on the meat, enjoying the aroma that kept blooming in its mouth.

Akagi's craftsmanship is truly excellent.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of a small shop in the city center.

Deep Sea Musashi sat on the steps, tore open the wrapper of a cookie, and put it in his mouth.

She crunched on the biscuit, a fleeting moment of happiness bringing a smile to her face, making her forget the rest of the world.

...It smells so good.

Chapter 413 A Reunion with Mio and Qi Jiu

The first day in the temporary sea area ended in such a lively atmosphere with the ship girls.

On their second day in the city, after settling in, the admirals went to the Admirals' Guild in the very center to officially register.

Only after registration will the Admiral's Guild have corresponding special missions and merit systems during the Deep Sea event period.

When the ship girls were building houses, they also built a special single room for Shiro, probably to take Shiro's wishes into consideration. The interior decoration is exactly the same as Shiro's room in Bismarck's house.

As for who got hold of the set design information for Xiaobai's bedroom, she simply ignored that question.

Anyway, the house is the same as before, and it's quite comfortable to stay in. As long as I'm happy, that's all that matters.

The next morning, Xiaobai woke up from her sleep.

After a quick wash, Xiaobai left her room.

Outside the house, Lexington, Bismarck, Hood, Akagi, and Saratoga had already tidied up, looking like they had been waiting for Xiaobai for a long time.

"Good morning, Little White." Lexington greeted Little White.

"Good morning, Lexington." This was the first time Xiaobai had seen the four parent-level ship girls of the naval base standing together, and she felt a strange sense of emotion. "Sorry, I overslept."

“Not late at all, just in time.” Lexington smiled. “We only arrived a little early.”

"Oh." Little White secretly glanced at Saratoga, who was standing next to Lexington.

Saratoga was unusually well-behaved today, not rushing up to Iniesta the moment she saw him.

Lexington walked up to Little White and reached out to pat its head: "Let's go to the Admiral's Guild."

The strategy for participating in the Deep Sea event is of great significance to the entire new naval base. This is the first time that the new naval base has officially appeared before other admirals after losing its previous admiral and experiencing several years of silence.

Xiaobai followed the ship girls out of the courtyard.

Just as he stepped out of the yard, Lexington stopped in his tracks.

"Little White, do you remember what I said yesterday?" Lexington turned around and looked at Little White with a smile.

"Hmm." Xiaobai nodded, then walked up to Lexington.

“Little White, from now on it won’t be you following us, but us following you,” Lexington said to Little White.

"Oh..." Xiaobai nodded as if she understood but not quite.

Along the way, the five ship girls following behind Xiaobai did not say a word, each of them quietly lowering their eyes.

Along the way, many admirals were drawn to Xiaobai and his group.

Xiao Bai, especially, who was walking at the very front of the group, received the most attention in every sense of the word.

Previously, when Xiaobai appeared on television, he was only shown as the admiral of Missouri, so most admirals were unaware that he was actually the admiral of the world's number one naval base. They simply expressed their envy and jealousy towards this European's opportunity.

However, when such a familiar girl appeared in real life, especially when she was followed by several ship girls who looked no weaker than herself, everyone's curiosity about Xiaobai instantly soared to a peak.

Fortunately, this temporary city was similar to the sea city in the first chapter, and Xiaobai had already explored most of the city with Saratoga yesterday, so it was quite easy to lead Lexington and the others to the Admiral's Guild.

After walking for a while, Xiaobai and her companions arrived at the city center, at the entrance of the Admiral's Guild.

As soon as Xiao Bai arrived at the entrance of the Admiral's Guild, a cheongsam-clad waitress who had been waiting inside greeted him with a beaming smile.

"Welcome, esteemed Admiral." The waitress in the cheongsam bowed respectfully to Xiaobai. "How can I help you?"

"We're here to register," Xiaobai said.

The waiter nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Please show me your admiral's badge."

Xiao Bai took out his admiral's certificate and handed it to the waiter in front of him.

The waiter quietly looked at Xiaobai's admiral's certificate, and after thinking for less than half a second, returned the certificate to Xiaobai.

"Please follow me," the waiter said to Xiaobai with an even brighter smile.

As expected of the Admiral Guild during the Deep Sea event, the service staff inside are much more capable in every sense. Not only are they more attractive and have better figures, but their service is also more attentive, and their mental fortitude is also much stronger. After seeing Xiaobai's Admiral Certificate, which symbolizes the world's number one, they didn't take several seconds to understand the situation like Xie Yun in the first chapter. Instead, they naturally greeted Xiaobai with the most enthusiastic attitude.

The waiter stood beside Xiaobai and led her around the admirals who were still queuing with their ship girls in the lobby and headed to the second floor.

The admirals who were queuing on the first floor naturally saw Shiro and the ship girls being led to the second floor by the waiter.

"Admiral, some people have been led directly to the second floor," a ship girl said, tugging at her admiral's clothes.

The admiral who had been pulled looked in the direction of Xiaobai: "Oh... I see him."

What were they doing upstairs?

"The second floor is where we confirm missions and resupply the ship girls. We'll be going there after we register."

"Huh? Don't they need to register?" The ship girl was immediately displeased when she heard her admiral say that. "This is cutting in line."

"Shh." However, before the ship girl could say another word, her admiral quickly signaled her to be quiet.

It seems that this is a veteran admiral who brought his fledgling ship girls to the event. After signaling his ship girls to be quiet, he quickly glanced at the ship girls who were going upstairs several times, as if he was worried that they would hear what his ship girls were saying.

Xiaobai and Lexington, who were going upstairs, didn't react much, but Saratoga glanced over and looked at the ship girl who was speaking several times.

Fortunately, Saratoga wasn't a bad person; she was just a little curious about the ship girl who claimed to have cut in line, and after glancing at her a few times, she didn't do anything else.

The admiral breathed a sigh of relief only after Xiaobai and the others had all gone up to the second floor and disappeared from sight.

"...Admiral, did I say something wrong?" The ship girl, who had been signaled by the admiral, asked cautiously at this moment.

"They didn't cut in line," the admiral said, looking at his ship girls with a helpless expression. "They don't need to queue."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"For ordinary garrison units like ours, there's a queue to register for the Deep Sea event. You know, if you don't register, you won't get any missions, you won't gain merit points, and you won't get any rewards."

"Then they don't need to register?"

"They also signed up, but they don't need to queue anymore." This admiral seemed to know a lot about the Admirals' Guild. His words piqued the interest of many admirals nearby, who all perked up their ears to listen.

"The privilege of skipping the procedures on the first floor and going directly to the second floor is only available to the top ten strongest naval commanders," the admiral said slowly to his ship girl.

"That girl is in the top ten in the world!?" The ship girl covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.

"At least in the top ten." The admiral nodded. Now you know why I called you over.

"Uh... I understand." The ship girl nodded quickly.

A top-ten figure in the world! If you anger someone like that, wouldn't your little-known town magistrate be in deep trouble?

"There's a reason why only the top ten naval bases in the world can go directly to the second floor," the admiral said to his ship girl. "It's because their registration is usually done by the governor himself, not by the staff. And the governor certainly doesn't stay on the first floor squeezing around with us lazybones, right? So they go up to the second floor."

"Ah... I can even see the Governor..." The ship girl's eyes were practically sparkling with envy.

The governor-general is the top superior of the admirals, the most powerful of all admirals, the kind that's incredibly influential. Normally, it's already a big deal to be able to meet him even once. I never imagined that a top ten figure in the world would have the governor-general personally help him with his registration procedures. He's so lucky.

Xiaobai is not happy at all.

Xiao Bai's face, which rarely showed negative emotions, displayed an unusual expression when she saw the person in front of her, as if she had seen a moldy pickle jar.

"Hey, Little White Sister." Mu Yu sat on the table in front of her and waved to Little White in greeting.

Yuzi, who was leaning over the table in front of Mu Yu, also turned her head and looked at Xiao Bai.

"Oh my, isn't this Little White Sister?" Yuzu, who hadn't seen her for a long time, was still as carefree as ever. She looked at Little White and gave her a bright smile.

"Sister Yuzu, it's been a long time! How have you been?" Xiaobai gave Sister Yuzu a sincere smile.

"What else can a salted fish do? It's just about getting by like a salted fish."

"How did Sister Yuzu get up here?"

"Oh, this?" Yuzu laughed, then pointed to Mu Yu behind her, "We went through the back door. It was too tiring to queue downstairs, so we came up. Don't tell anyone."

"Oh, is that so? I won't do it." Xiaobai smiled at Youzi.

Two sisters, one older and one younger, who met in Yuxiu, smiled as if they had met family in the coastal city during the deep-sea activity season.

"Wait...am I being ignored again?!" Mu Yu slammed her hand on the table in front of her and stretched out her other hand towards Xiao Bai. "Little Bai! It's me! It's me!"

"..." Xiao Bai's gaze lingered on Mu Yu for only a short while.

Then Xiaobai turned his head to look at Lexington behind him.
