How to fall in love with a ship girl?

"At present, it can be confirmed that... the information given by Iron Blood should be true..." Rossiya nodded slightly, holding a pen in his hand and constantly drawing back and forth on the map in front of the table.

"I don't know why they took the initiative to sell us the commander's information... But at least from the current point of view, this matter has no benefit for them."

"So, there is a reason why the things we placed at the Royal Palace some time ago suddenly couldn't receive the signal..." The ship girl casually threw her gloves aside and said:

"It should be that the Royal Army conducted a comprehensive search to ensure that the commander's information would not be leaked. The more they try to hide the truth, the more it seems that the news from the Iron Blood is true."

She could never have imagined that the so-called royal self-examination operation was actually discovered and initiated by the commander.

"But now that everything has been confirmed...do you have any ideas for action, Rossia?"

"Don't be too hasty..." Rossia pondered for a while and shook her head: "The Royal Family's behavior is understandable, but the situation on the Iron Blood side is really a bit strange... Before we can determine Iron Blood's true purpose, it's best not to act rashly."

"Such important news....I don't believe they really just want to sell it for a good price..."

Rossia also could not have imagined that the reason why Iron Blood took the initiative to sell the news about the commander to them was very simple. It was just that he had been backstabbed many times by people in his own port area and he was too lazy to help keep it secret anymore.

"Then we should strengthen our observation of the situation at the Royal and Iron Blood side. If nothing else, we can go to the border more often...how do you think?"

"What if we can't get any useful information?" Rossia asked, "If the commander stays in the Royal Port, we don't seem to have any way..."

"When the time comes, if we have a common enemy... we can sign another non-aggression pact with Iron Blood."

"Understood..."

Rosia nodded:

"alliance."

Chapter 191 Departure

After a few more days of preparation, Xu Huan and his party finally set out on the journey to Tiexue.

In order to prevent his departure from causing unbearable things to the ship girls in the port (such as Elizabeth), Xu Huan deliberately avoided the time when there were many people in the port and chose to set off at dawn.

As soon as the sky was getting light, everyone boarded Frederick's prototype ship and headed straight for the sea from the port.

Looking at the Royal Port area gradually disappearing at the end of the field of vision, Xu Huan leaned on the railing, his mind a little dazed.

Rather than wandering around, deep down he prefers to settle down in one place and live a stable life.

I have lived in the royal family for so long, and I basically know everyone in the port area. It is a very familiar and friendly environment. But now I have to leave for various reasons, and I can't help feeling a little melancholy.

Although I will be back soon, but this soon...who can tell how long it will be?

The cold wind of the early morning blew in through the collar, thick mist gradually rose above the sea, and the bright light of the sun also leaked out a narrow glimmer from the clouds.

"Master...wind is the root of all diseases. Even though you have excellent physical fitness, it is better to blow less..." A soft voice came from behind, and then a white windbreaker was gently draped over Xu Huan's shoulders.

The young man turned his head and met Befa's gentle gaze and gentle smile.

The ship girl pursed her lips, then gently took Xu Huan's hand with her soft and tender hands, placed it in her palms, and slowly covered her hands.

A warm feeling came from the point of contact, dispelling the slight chill in the early morning.

"Thank you... But I've never seen this dress before..."

Xu Huan nodded slightly, then looked at the white windbreaker draped over him.

The size is very suitable, and the style is a bit colder, which matches the slight scar on his face very well.

"This was custom-made by Befa for you some time ago..."

Befa explained: "Master, if you go out to other camps, you have to wear more clothes that make you look imposing..."

"Very warm...thank you."

Xu Huan tightened his windbreaker and let out a long breath.

At least on this trip, there are a lot of familiar people around me, so in a sense I don’t feel so lonely.

"What is the master thinking about?" Befa asked, noting that the young man's heart was not as calm as he appeared outside.

"It's nothing... just some pretentious things... the kind that everyone has, it will be fine after a while..."

This situation often occurs when I was a child and I was about to go to school during the school holidays.

Xu Huan's school is a typical closed boarding school, and he can only go home during long vacations. So every time he leaves home and returns to school, he always feels reluctant and uncomfortable.

But this kind of discomfort will soon be faded away by the new life after meeting a few bad friends at school.

The process of leaving Royal and heading to Iron Blood this time felt similar to the time when I was in school as a child.

I have a lot of things to do now, and I probably only have the one or two days when I'm away to have some free time to think about stuff. After a while, I'll have to devote myself to getting along with the new ship girls and fighting against the Sirens.

If we really want to solve the problem perfectly and enter a holiday state, we must at least eliminate the threat of the Sirens.

Moreover, to achieve this goal, it is necessary to unite the ship girls from several camps.

"Master, don't think too much..." Beifa gently increased the strength of rubbing the young man's palm, intending to give Xu Huan more confidence.

"No matter where you are, Befa will always be by your side, Master."

As the royal maid spoke, her blue and purple eyes became moister.

She gently stood on tiptoe, put her arms around the neck of the young man in front of her, and gently kissed him with her pink lips.

The ship girl's eyes, as clear as autumn water, opened and closed, and Xu Huan could even see his own figure in them.

The chill of the early morning mist and the coolness of the sea breeze were all melted away by the warmth of the ship girl in front of them.

Befa's lips carried a warm breath, constantly soothing the ripples in the young man's heart.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

The beautiful face of the ship girl also added a crimson hue at this time, and with her slightly moist, reflective cherry lips, she looked like a ripe spring peach, waiting to be picked.

Xu Huan looked at the emotional expression of Beifa in front of him, and gently stroked the other's cheek with his other hand.

The smooth tofu-like feeling constantly comes from the fingertips, making people unable to resist the urge to take a bite.

"When I first took on the position of commander, the responsibilities and knowledge I learned about the commander at that time all told me that as a commander, the most important thing I should do is to take care of the mood of the ship girls under my command."

"After all, generally speaking, humans are no match for shipgirls in terms of combat power. They can only provide some help on the front battlefield, and the responsibilities of 'command'... at most they can only provide some suggestions on the general direction."

"So the commander's biggest task is to do a good job of logistics and provide psychological comfort to the ship girl."

Xu Huan said, smiling and shaking his head: "From this point of view, I am not qualified... The logistics and other things are directly thrown to you and Yan Zhan, as for the psychological comfort-"

"I have received far more from you, Befa, than I have given you..."

"So... what does the master want to express?" Befa gently leaned his head against the young man's chest: "In Befa's eyes, the master is a very qualified commander."

"I believe the other shipgirls think the same way, even the ones from Iron Blood are no exception..."

Befa whispered, and the tone of his voice became more lively: "It is certainly a good thing to command from the rear, but we... prefer the feeling of fighting side by side with the master."

"So... the master is very competent... please don't think too much..."

The ship girl thought that Xu Huan was beginning to feel a little self-deprecating, so she began to comfort him.

"Of course, I am a competent commander..."

Xu Huan suddenly burst out laughing.

He pulled Befa's cheek and said, "Do you think I'm a crying kid? I just want to thank you for your help over the years..."

"I have never hesitated about my role as commander."

Xu Huan said, turning his head to look at the sea: "I have the ability and confidence to eliminate the threat of the Siren... As for the conflicts between the ship girls camps..."

The young man patted his head in annoyance when he said this: "This is indeed a bit difficult to deal with... But I won't let you fight. I hope everyone can understand things, communicate more and have less friction. Otherwise, I can only raise my fist to reason with you."

"Master, now that you say that... I feel relieved." Beifa smiled sweetly, let go of Xu Huan's neck, and helped the young man put on his windbreaker slowly.

Xu Huan also opened his hands very honestly, allowing Beifa's little hands to continue to operate on his body.

The process of getting dressed was somewhat cumbersome. In order to pursue the best style and performance, Beifa adjusted every detail very carefully, and also told it to Xu Huan, so that he could look his best when he was not around.

Just as expected, when Xu Huan changed a few linings according to Beifa's request and put on a complete white windbreaker, he looked completely refreshed.

"How about it?"

Xu Huan put on his clothes and walked back and forth a few steps as Beifa requested.

"Great...Great, Master." Beifa's eyes seemed to be glued to Xu Huan. He looked at him in a daze for a long time before nodding with great satisfaction.

The trench coat is well-cut and has smooth lines, like a work of art. When worn by a young man, it adds a touch of handsomeness.

The buttons in front of the body are intentionally left unbuttoned, which makes the overall look more casual than usual, and is very consistent with the temperament of the young man.

Leisurely but not casual.

Of course, the main reason is that Xu Huan has a good face and figure, which can hold up this dress.

"Hmm? Then...how about making a few different color combinations based on this one?" Xu Huan didn't particularly care about what he wore, but from the expression on Befa's face, he could tell that this dress was more or less suitable for him.

If she could be recognized by the head royal maid who was known for her perfection, then she must be good enough.

"Of course...it's an honor for Befa."

Befa smiled with satisfaction again.

The two people's casual chat at the railing also attracted a lot of people's attention.

Next to the high-level command room, Frederick stood by the window and looked at the two people who were chatting happily below. His dark golden eyes stayed on the young man for a long time.

"What? Do you have any problem with Befa?"

Hu Teng, who was also standing nearby, asked.

"No, I just think she has good taste. After all, that child is suitable for wearing such clothes..."

"....really."

Hu Teng was silent for a long time, and also gave an affirmative answer, and then asked:

"It takes quite a while to get from the Royal Palace to the Iron Blood. Have you arranged your accommodation during this period?"

"Everything has been arranged... The child will live alone and I will supervise him. No one can disturb him at night."

As the owner of the prototype ship, Frederick naturally has the corresponding power and means.

"Going out to sea is not like staying in the port area... You have to be highly alert at all times..."

Chapter 192: Pull the boat over!

The prototype ship was sailing silently on the sea, much slower than Xu Huan had expected.

Compared to heavy warships, ship girls are much more agile, which is also an advantage of being a ship girl. If they do not ride on the prototype ship, but let everyone travel directly on the sea, then the speed will naturally be much faster than before.

But it will also accumulate a lot of fatigue, and if you encounter unexpected situations at that time, there may be potential risks.

So after careful consideration, everyone unanimously decided to travel on the prototype ship. Although dangerous situations that could threaten multiple sea legends are extremely rare, they must be prevented.

Because of this, everyone went out to sea early in the morning, and only reached the edge of the royal waters when the sun was about to set.

If we were to use more ship equipment to speed up the journey, the time could be shortened by at least half.

"Frederick....how is it going?"

Xu Huan sat at the front of the deck, his eyes slightly narrowed as he felt the gentle sea breeze, and asked Frederick who was standing behind him.

The days of sailing were extremely boring. In addition to leaving most things to Frederick and the self-control system, everyone would come to the deck in the evening to chat and enjoy the sea breeze.

It is the time when the sun is setting. Not only is the scenery exceptionally beautiful, but without the direct sunlight, the evening air also becomes much cooler.

"Get ready to leave royal controlled waters... kid."

Frederick replied: "Based on the recent increase in the energy of the Sirens, we should encounter many Sirens after leaving the royal controlled waters..."

When talking about the topic of Sirens, everyone looked quite relaxed.

This is also the confidence brought by strong combat effectiveness.

Judging from their current configuration, unless there are any major accidents, they will be the only ones chasing the Sirens on the sea.

"That side of hatred and fear—"

"All the reconnaissance planes have taken off~~Commander..." Yuanchou, who was lying on a chair in the distance enjoying the evening sun, also joined the conversation after hearing his name.

"As long as a siren approaches, it will not escape my warning... Commander, you can rest assured."

"That's good....."
