Ice Sea Lord: Starting with Intelligence Update
Chapter 103 I Know You
After a long while, the snow scene outside the porthole was surrounded by a noisy commotion.
Cheers paved the way for the warriors' journey, and honor flowed like a gentle stream, benefiting their families and friends.
Lin Qingqing did not leave the captain's cabin of the White Dove. She looked down at the scenery outside the window, but that was all she did.
It was impossible to discern any emotional fluctuations on his face; one could only guess that the girl might harbor a hint of melancholy.
It wasn't so much a girl's inner turmoil, but more of a sense of self-blame and helplessness at not being able to contribute to the territory.
The White Dove can now be considered the vice-captain of the Azure, and as the lord of this fortress, she must also be responsible for the abilities of the second-in-command.
But now?
Completely useless and without any achievement.
For as long as the Azure was out there fighting, the White Dove was lying dormant in the bay.
People should have some sense of shame, right?
She couldn't tolerate her own depravity and decadence, even if it meant making the slightest contribution to the collective.
However, she cannot and should not do anything without He Feng's orders. Excessive autonomy would be considered disobeying her superiors. All these factors explain her current predicament.
Lin Qingqing played with her long, black hair with her left index and middle fingers. The strands fell gently onto her chest, which was about to burst open, creating a surging, voluptuous look that seemed somewhat incongruous with her melancholy and delicate face.
A series of rapid footsteps approached, then stopped at the doorway and began to knock.
"Come in!" Lin Qingqing said without even looking up.
The man turned the doorknob, closed the door behind him, and then bowed respectfully.
"Vice-Captain, Lord He Feng has returned. Aren't you going to go and see him?"
"Deputy Helmsman" is the title given to the lord of such a deputy ship fortress within the territory, and it initially carried an unspoken stigma.
But after Lin Qingqing openly accepted this "affectionate title," the negative connotation was gradually dispelled, and it also brought her, the newly appointed lord, closer to the people of the Azure.
Let's just consider it a small tactic to win people over; it's hardly a despicable act of manipulating people and replacing them with new ones.
"Me? Go? Shamelessly? I haven't done anything practical for the lord, so what right do I have to go?"
Lin Qingqing said somewhat absentmindedly, "I am nothing..."
"But, sir, you're now called the deputy helmsman by others, and you're the second-in-command here!" The man rubbed his hands together. "If we don't take advantage of such a good opportunity, we might even increase our goodwill with the other citizens. What if..."
"Shut up, you treacherous dog!" Her voice suddenly turned shrill, and she glared furiously at the presumptuous person who had such improper thoughts.
This kind of person is another element that has troubled her to this day: a group of cunning and wicked people who, once they have enough to eat and wear, want to seize power.
They were too good at whispering in the ears of those in high positions, and after seeing Lin Qingqing's understanding nature, they became even more reckless, attempting to extend their desires to the Azure.
They usually do a lot of work, but deep down they are filled with flattery towards those in power, as if pleasing their superiors would allow them to obtain better resources.
Perhaps it was the few extra words Lin Qingqing spoke to them, or perhaps it was her slight approval of their rudimentary plan.
These things, and all those things, can bring them the ultimate spiritual climax.
They utterly despise those who are inferior to them, eager to crush them under their feet.
Driven by greed and always keeping themselves out of the game, what can you do with them? After all, those are just "suggestions."
Lin Qingqing pinched the bridge of her nose, calming her emotions before they completely erupted, and fixed her gaze on him with a murderous intent.
"You've been talking a lot today. The entire Heilonghai Bay isn't particularly lacking in laborers like you."
"I was wrong, I was wrong, I understand, I will never dare to spread rumors again." The man instantly lay face down on the ground, banging his face against the ground several times, and then slapped himself hard across the face.
"I have never harbored any disloyalty towards Lord He Feng. I deserve to die. I was ignorant and I am not a good person..."
"Get out of here before I decide to kill you."
Overwhelmed with gratitude, the man struck the ground several more times, the blood seeping from his head mingling with his tears, dripping onto the ground.
After shakily straightening up, she stumbled and staggered out of the door with extremely uncoordinated steps, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"A bunch of wolves in sheep's clothing," Lin Qingqing said through gritted teeth, shaking her arms to regain her slingback posture and looking out the window.
But then, the previously chaotic footsteps were suddenly interrupted by something else, coming from another set of footsteps.
But it is quieter, more composed, and even more steady.
"Get the hell out of my way! If the deputy helmsman changes his mind, I'll drag you down with me!"
The noisy noise still echoed in the corridor; it was an accidental occurrence, but it had nothing to do with Lin Qingqing.
She kept looking out the window.
At the same time, what seemed like a simple argument took a subtle turn in the events outside the corridor.
"No, who are you?! You can't, don't!"
A heart-wrenching scream rang out from outside the door, and after the gunshot, all the noise returned to silence.
Lin Qingqing was inevitably shaken, and her mind went completely blank, as if a gunshot had rang out.
"Clap clap clap".
The sound of applause drew closer, in sync with his pace, a total of 13 steps, just enough to reach the hatch.
"Creak~" The heavy wooden door was pushed open halfway, and a thin-faced man walked out.
He raised both hands, hooked the trigger mechanism with his index fingers, and politely leaned forward slightly before putting his pistol back into its holster.
"A pistol, a medical tool for treating arrogant people, costing only 9mm copper pills per treatment."
He smiled like that, exuding an aura that was a combination of soldier and rogue.
"My name is Jing Sheng, and I am your exclusive military advisor. I was honored to treat such a self-deprecating patient."
"It's a real shame that he's suffering from the crime of 'slander'."
Lin Qingqing turned around and calmly confronted Jing Sheng, a storm raging in her mind.
She couldn't believe that someone could be convincing with such an unsubstantiated title.
So she began to scrutinize him closely, and after a thorough examination, she found that he was indeed quite different.
"A pistol? Why do you have the standard firearms issued to White Raven City soldiers? I don't think I've ever seen you before."
Lin Qingqing chatted casually, slowly shifting her position, her slender fingers almost touching the alarm button.
"Hey, hey, don't move." Jing Sheng pointed at Lin Qingqing's right hand, which was covered up, and pulled out his pistol again, holding it in a way that seemed to be both provocative and contemptuous.
"You don't recognize me, but I recognize you, the master of those hyenas."
