Elder brother's garrison

“…Wow, that’s amazing…” Bai Xue covered her mouth and looked at Missouri in amazement.

Missouri raised her hand, smiling, and extended the thin thread in her hand to Fubuki's chest, then passed the thread to Fubuki's hand: "Try to untie it carefully, or the loser will get a flick on the forehead."

Fubuki blushed and quickly turned her back. The destroyers also gathered together, looking at the flower rope in Fubuki's hand. For a moment, there was a constant discussion about how to choose this and that.

"Missouri, you know how to do this too?" Xiaobai looked at Missouri with some surprise.

"Does the Admiral want to learn? I can teach you," Missouri said with a smile to Xiaobai.

"Haha, no need." Xiaobai shook his head. "I'm past the age of playing that kind of game."

“That makes sense.” Missouri nodded at Little White.

The two sat together watching the assembled destroyers enthusiastically discussing how to untie the Missouri rope.

"Speaking of which, Admiral."

"Ok?"

"Missouri and Bismarck overheard some interesting news when they went grocery shopping earlier."

"What news?"

"It's the naval base where Senior Oak used to be. The admiral's house collapsed last night."

"Oh... what should we do then?"

"Yeah, that's really unlucky."

"How is that admiral doing?" Xiaobai asked Missouri.

"She got a minor injury, nothing serious, but I heard she's quite traumatized." Missouri smiled at Xiaobai. "The ship girls from that naval base were just asking on the street if anyone had seen Oak-senpai."

“Well, after all, Royal Oak didn’t leave any note when she left.” Little White nodded, then thought for a moment, “Oh, right, Missouri.”

"Missouri is here."

"Could you go to the Admiral's Guild and find the Guild Master later? Go get two forms for transferring the ownership of the ship girls," Xiaobai said to Missouri.

Xiao Bai had just realized that Royal Oak's arrival at his place was somewhat illegitimate; he had tricked her into coming here by virtue of his expertise in job-hopping... cough cough, he had invited her. Now, she needed to get some real work done.

“With pleasure.” Missouri nodded to Little White.

"It's untied!" Just then, amidst the cheers of the destroyer, Fubuki, her face flushed, ran to Missouri. She raised her hand, and the rope on her wrist had transformed into a beautiful butterfly pattern. "Missouri, it's your turn!"

Missouri looked at the patterns on Fubuki's hands, smiled, and reached out to pick up a few threads. Then she took the flower rope, which quickly turned into a tangled mess in Missouri's hands.

"Missouri lost." Missouri smiled as she looked at Fubuki. "Fubuki-senpai is really amazing."

"Yeah!" The destroyers huddled together.

Missouri watched the destroyers' happy expressions, then closed her eyes and gently extended her fair and beautiful face towards Fubuki.

Fubuki stretched out her finger and flicked Missouri's forehead with a snap.

Having done all this, the destroyers cheered as if they were heroes who had defeated a demon king, embracing each other in a joyous scene.

Missouri rubbed his forehead, smiled helplessly at Xiaobai, and then stood up from the bench.

"So Missouri is going to the Admiral's Guild first?"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Missouri." Little White smiled at Missouri. "Come back soon, we'll be eating soon."

“It’s Missouri’s honor,” Missouri said with a smile. “However, if possible, could the Admiral reward Missouri when he returns?”

"A reward? Hmm, that's good." Little White nodded. "Missouri, what do you want?"

Missouri smiled at Xiaobai, then leaned down and whispered in Xiaobai's ear: "Just one day is fine. Missouri wants to sleep with the Admiral."

Missouri's voice was soft and gentle, ringing in my ears like the chirping of cicadas on a summer night, languid and powerless, stirring my heart and soul.

Chapter 729 The Smile of Missouri

Xiao Bai pulled her ear away from Missouri's mouth. Missouri's voice wasn't loud, but when she opened her mouth near her ear, warm breath entered, making Xiao Bai feel a tickle inside.

"Together? I (one) Qi Ba Qi Lu" Xiao Bai rubbed his ears while looking at Missouri curiously.

Missouri smiled at Little White without saying a word.

"Okay, sure." Xiaobai nodded.

Xiaobai still found Missouri's request quite strange.

Sleeping with ship girls is a common occurrence for Xiaobai. Changchun, Tirpitz, Saratoga, Akagi, Bismarck, Lexington, and many more ship girls have slept with Xiaobai. Xiaobai has long been accustomed to the close relationship with ship girls. Recently, Xiaobai has also subtly felt that sleeping with ship girls, being able to hug their soft bodies, and not having to worry about catching a cold at night is quite nice.

However, Shiro is rather shy. She wouldn't refuse if a ship girl asked her to sleep with her, but she almost never did. Now that Missouri had made this request, Shiro had no choice but to agree.

"So today?" Xiaobai asked Missouri.

"What's today?" Before Missouri could answer, Fubuki's voice suddenly broke in.

Suddenly, Fubuki, who had been cheering with the destroyers, appeared between Shiro and Missouri. She glanced at Missouri a few times, then looked back at Shiro for a moment and asked, "Admiral, are you and Missouri plotting something behind Fubuki's back?"

It must be said that Fubuki's vigilance is indeed impressive to a certain extent, and she has not disgraced her status as a destroyer flagship in the slightest.

"No," Xiaobai said with a smile, looking at Chuixue. "We weren't planning anything bad."

"Then what are you and Missouri doing so mysteriously, Admiral?" Fubuki asked, pouting.

"Missouri is talking to the Admiral about grocery shopping," Missouri said to Fubuki.

"Buying groceries?"

"The Admiral is asking Missouri why Bismarck goes out to buy groceries every day," Missouri said to Fubuki.

"Hmm—" Fubuki blinked at Missouri, tilting her head, "Right, why buy them piecemeal when you could buy a lot at once?"

Fubuki seems to have taken an interest in this topic.

“Because Bismarck-senpai wanted to choose the freshest ingredients,” Missouri said to Fubuki.

"Oh, oh, oh!" Fubuki's eyes lit up. "Bismarck is so nice!"

Seeing that Fubuki's attention had been diverted by Missouri's few words, Shiro couldn't help but cast an admiring glance at Missouri.

Xiaobai hadn't planned to keep it from Fubuki. After all, it was just something like sleeping with a ship girl, and Xiaobai felt there was no need to hide it from the other ship girls. She just wanted to tell Fubuki directly.

However, Missouri interrupted her before she could finish speaking and immediately diverted Fubuki's attention to the other side.

Xiaobai thought that if she told Fubuki about this, Fubuki might join in the fun and come to her bed tonight. Once Fubuki came, her three younger sisters would probably come too, and Changchun might even come along. Once these destroyers and Missouri were on Xiaobai's bed, Bismarck might notice. Since Fubuki and Missouri were her married ships, Bismarck wouldn't drag Missouri and Fubuki off the bed, and she didn't think they would come to her bed. But if she found out, Tirpitz would find out, and then Saratoga would find out. Once it got to Saratoga, the situation might become complicated.

—Maybe my bed will be really cramped tonight…

In that sense, Missouri's move wasn't wrong at all.

"Does Missouri want to continue playing cat's cradle?" Fubuki's curiosity came and went quickly. After Missouri explained briefly, Fubuki took out the string that had been crumpled up earlier and asked Missouri.

“Missouri would be happy to.” Missouri nodded to Fubuki first, then smiled with some regret, “But the Admiral just asked Missouri to go to the Admiral’s Guild to get the transfer form for Senior Royal Oak, so Missouri can’t play with Senior Fubuki.”

"Oh, I see." Fubuki put down the thin thread in her hand with some regret.

Although Fubuki is playful, she is still quite sensible.

Royal Oak's job-hopping form is clearly more important to them than playing around with them.

"When Missouri comes back, I'll definitely have a great time with Fubuki-senpai as an apology," Missouri said to Fubuki with a smile.

Fubuki's eyes lit up again, and she nodded heavily to Missouri several times.

Missouri then said goodbye to Little White and walked out of the yard.

Xiaobai has great confidence in Missouri's work; in fact, Missouri has never let him down.

On the street outside the courtyard, Jinqu and Feicui were squatting next to a vendor's stall, carefully examining the goods inside.

"Hmm...this little piece of jewelry looks really nice." Jade was holding a carefully crafted, colorful seashell in her hand. "So cute."

“There are plenty of these on the beach,” Jinqu said with a smile to Fei Cui, who was squatting on the other side.

“It’s very impolite to say such things here,” Emerald said, pretending to be angry as she poked Jinqu’s forehead with her finger. “Besides, what I like is the decoration of this seashell.”

"Okay, I admit I was wrong." Jinqu glanced at the vendor sitting directly in front of him, gave him an embarrassed smile, and said, "I'll take this one then. How much is it?"

"Eighty yuan," the shopkeeper stated his price.

The price isn't cheap, but it's within my budget. After all, buying these little trinkets is all about the fun.

Since he was going back to the naval base with Shiro anyway and wouldn't have the chance to come here again, Jinqu thought it wouldn't hurt to buy one as a souvenir.

They paid the money decisively and efficiently.

"You just bought it for eighty yuan? That's so generous of you." On the way back, Emerald said to Jinqu with a smile.

"Didn't you say that you were interested in the decorations on the seashell?"

"Those are things I said in front of the shop owner, otherwise it would be too embarrassing." Jade said, looking at the seashell in her hand, her eyes narrowing into slits. "But thank you anyway."

"Oh, woman."

“You’re a woman too.” Emerald poked Jinqu’s waist with the elbow of the hand holding the seashell. “When we go back later, don’t… ah.”

"Huh? What?" Jinqu looked at Emerald with curiosity.

“Missouri,” Emerald pointed to the other side of the road.

On the other side of the road, a familiar ship girl was walking towards them with her head down.

Missouri and Emerald have a pretty good relationship. After all, Missouri herself said she's a junior, and they're all ship girls who came later. So, compared to super ship girls like Bismarck, Tirpitz, and Saratoga, Emerald and Azure don't feel as much pressure from Missouri. Missouri is also usually quite composed and fun, and Emerald and Azure really like her.

"Oh, it's Missouri." Following Emerald's finger, Jinqu also spotted Missouri. The two of them quickened their pace, took a few steps towards Missouri, and extended their hands, "Missouri—"

Although Missouri kept her head down, she walked surprisingly fast, like a gust of wind. In the short time it took for Progress and Emerald to react, Missouri had already arrived in front of them with a whooshing sound.

Missouri also heard Progressive and Emerald's voices. She paused slightly, then looked up.

Missouri's face was beaming with a smile more radiant than either of them had ever seen in their lives.

Encouragement and Emerald felt as if they were seeing the sun. Round after round of radiant smiles seemed to transform into sunlight, illuminating Missouri's entire being. Infinite beams of light radiated from Missouri's face, making Encouragement and Emerald almost unable to open their eyes.

—This is too dazzling...

"Ah, it's Senior Encouragement and Senior Emerald." Missouri maintained her bright smile and bowed to the two ship girls in front of her.

"Ah... um, good morning, Missouri..."

"May I ask if you two gentlemen have something to discuss with Missouri?" Missouri asked with a smile.

"No, no, I just saw you walking by alone and came over to say hello..."

“Oh, I see. Missouri is very grateful for your concern, seniors.” Missouri replied with a smile. “Are you going back to the courtyard now? Then Missouri will not keep you any longer.”

After Missouri finished speaking, she prepared to walk directly behind Entry and Emerald.

“Um…Missouri, did something good happen to you?” Ambition asked.

"Hmm? Why would the seniors ask that?"

“Ah… this.” Jinqu looked at Missouri’s smiling face with some embarrassment.

—Your face is beaming with happiness.

“…Uh, it’s nothing, it’s nothing…Have a safe trip.” After thinking for a while, Jinqu gave up on asking Missouri.

It was quite unsettling to see Missouri, who was always so self-disciplined, making such an expression. I felt that if I asked any further, I would get into some serious trouble, so I chose to ignore it.

Jinqu and Feicui, hand in hand, slunk back towards the courtyard.

Missouri stood there watching Progressive and Emerald's departing figures, and finally realized something. She reached out and touched the corner of her mouth.

Her skin was smooth, and the corners of her mouth were turned up; she didn't know when they had gotten so up.

—Ah, I'll get tired if I keep laughing like this.

This is not possible.

When you're tired, your smile will look unpleasant.

Missouri looked towards the glass window beside her, but couldn't help but smile slightly.

Chapter 730 Admiral, I'm going!

Missouri returned half an hour later.

"Admiral, Missouri is back." Missouri walked up to Xiaobai, who was sitting with the destroyers, reached into his ship equipment space, and took out two forms, handing them to Xiaobai.

"Missouri, thank you." Xiaobai took the form from Missouri and looked at it.

After all, this form involves the situation of the ship girls and must be treated with caution. President Er Gou also knows this, so this form does not look like a simplified version made by President Er Gou personally, but a regular version with many densely packed items to fill in.
