The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Cleveland nodded. "Are we all here? Come with me...Fubuki, why do you have so many things?"

She glared at the girl who was carrying luggage as big as a hill.

Huang Chen's face was also full of black lines. He had originally set a maximum limit for Xiao Chuxue, but in the end he couldn't stand the girl's begging and had no choice but to agree to her, so she came carrying so many things.

"Don't worry about her. Everyone is here. Let's go."

Cleveland wanted to go up and help several times, but after thinking it over, he stopped, walked ahead and pointed the way, "Everyone follow me."

As soon as I walked into the train station, the first thing I felt was a very strong smell, which seemed to be a mixture of sweat, foot odor and various strange smells, which even made it difficult to breathe.

Then you will notice that it is densely packed with people, much more crowded than the cruise ship terminal.

The people coming and going were all carrying large and small bags and talking loudly. They were not necessarily all passengers. They might also be parents seeing off their sons on a long journey or wives seeing off their husbands on a long journey.

So in the noisy atmosphere, some feelings of separation were also spreading.

Occasionally, a broadcast would sound, reminding passengers of the departure of a train from a certain station.

In such an environment, even if two people stand face to face, they cannot hear what the other person is saying unless they shout out loud.

But it was this kind of environment that gave Huang Chen an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if in the deepest part of his memory, when he was very young, the train station was just that bustling.

Of course, it’s completely different when I grow up.

I never expected that something that had been buried in my memory would one day appear before my eyes in such a coincidental way.

This exclamation only lasted until we saw the train.

When the huge steel behemoth appeared in front of him, the tall smoke and the coal-burning boiler made Huang Chen feel shocked from the bottom of his heart.

But that feeling of nostalgia could not appear no matter what. After all, unless he was a monster hundreds of years old, he would never be able to find his childhood memories on a steam locomotive.

Cleveland quickly stopped and pointed to the first car behind the locomotive and said, "This is it."

The train door opened, footsteps were heard, and then a beautiful figure appeared. "Commander, everything is ready. Everyone, please bring your luggage in."

Huang Chen walked in front and rushed in carrying his luggage. For a moment, he felt like he was on a crowded train.

When I walked into the train, I found that it had a structure equivalent to a hard sleeper, divided into many small compartments. Each compartment had two upper, middle and lower bunks, totaling six beds. There were about 54 beds in one carriage.

It is more than enough to accommodate Huang Chen and others.

By this time there were several girls in it, from Princeton, Bataan, Biloxi, Birmingham, Denver, Columbia, and little Cleveland.

Greeting Huang Chen.

"There's another carriage ahead, which is equipped with a kitchen, toilet, and so on." Cleveland came over from the back and pointed to the front.

"If there weren't too many people, we could eat and wash up at the stations along the way," Cleveland explained, walking ahead. "But there are too many of us, so that's not convenient. So I asked them to add another car."

Huang Chen nodded, "I hadn't thought of this before."

"Hoohoo~train!" Suddenly, the excited voice of a little girl came from behind. Turning around, Bai Xue looked around excitedly, and Qingbo was also holding the little white rabbit doll with a curious look on his face.

And behind them, more little lolis were exploring around.

For ship girls, taking a train is indeed a rare thing.

"Okay, everyone, pack your luggage quickly! Then choose the berth you like!" Huang Chen immediately called out.

Everyone started to move. Compared to the lower or middle bunks, the higher upper bunks were the peaks worth climbing, and the little girls would even fight for a top bunk.

But Huang Chen didn't care. He looked at everyone with a smile, his face full of relief, and was about to set off.

Chapter 156 Everything is normal until memory fragments appear in my mind

Soon, everyone packed their luggage and chose their own seats.

Huang Chen ends up living in the same small unit with Enterprise, Amagi, Essex, Akagi, and Ayanami.

The bedding and other items were all acceptable, and the bed was a little wider than I remembered.

A short while after I packed my luggage, I heard the sound of a train whistle, and then I heard Cleveland's voice, "Are you all packed? The train is about to leave."

"It's almost packed." Huang Chen said.

Cleveland walked to the train door and said, "I'll get off first then. See you in Section C."

"Okay! See you in Area C!" Huang Chen said with a smile.

Cleveland walked slowly. "It seems the shipping company-related matters won't take that long now. They can be completed in less than two weeks. Maybe I'll even reach Area C before the Commander."

"If that's the case, Cleveland must provide us with accommodation." Huang Chen said with a smile.

Cleveland nodded confidently. "Leave these matters to us. We are the Knights of the Sea!"

When the girl walked down, Independence and Montpellier who appeared out of nowhere also appeared beside her, along with several railway bureau staff members.

The decision was ultimately made that Cleveland, Montpelier and Independence would remain to handle the remaining affairs of the shipping company, which was a reasonable idea.

After all, even when the company is operating normally, it is Cleveland and Independence that make the biggest contributions, and now the addition of Montpelier is just a bonus.

It’s not that the others are lazy or don’t work hard, it’s just that these two are indeed a little bit stronger than the other sisters. If they work a little harder, the others won’t have the chance to perform.

The next moment, the whistle sounded again, and then the train shook suddenly, and the scenery in front of us began to move slowly.

"Commander, bon voyage!"

"Big sister, you have to hurry up!"

"Take care of yourself!"

Everyone waved and greeted each other, but the train continued to move forward without hesitation, faster and faster, and the Clevelands standing on the platform became smaller and smaller, until they turned into a few tiny pixels and disappeared.

Finally, the journey to Area C began.

Although we were full of excitement when we set out, this feeling soon faded away.

The imagined life on a train, traveling along the way, and witnessing different scenery seems very beautiful.

But in reality, life on the train is quite boring and tedious.

The small space and crowded atmosphere meant there was no other way to adjust except to lie in bed and read.

The little girls were a little excited when they got on the bus on the first day, but they soon realized the nature of this journey on the second day and began to feel depressed.

Even the adults would find it difficult to withstand such torture.

It is said that humans are creatures that pursue freedom. As elves galloping on the sea, ship girls’ requirements for the vastness of space are no less than those of humans.

Now they can only squeeze into a small carriage and endure the cramped space. The longest distance they can move is to run from one carriage to another.

And they will continue this cruel and brutal thing for more than ten days.

Compared to passenger trains, freight trains are more like torture.

It has fewer stops, basically only stopping at one or two small stations a day. Each stop is not long, but those few minutes are a rare chance to get some fresh air.

Huang Chen sometimes even had the illusion that he was locked up in prison.

We only rely on a few dozen minutes of free time every day to get by.

Of course, life on the train is not all boring memories. For example, the sunrise on the train, the fiery red sun suddenly appears at the end of the mountain, instantly dispelling all the darkness and haze.

For example, the mountains with heavy rocks on top of each other, the vast grasslands, the dark and deep forests, and the winding valleys, each scenery has its own unique charm.

Life on the train is not as boring as running from one car to another when you get up early.

Everyone lived, played, laughed, and talked together in a big room. They would tell stories late at night and play games in the narrow aisle of the train during the day.

Playing marbles, fanning cards, poker, Monopoly, as long as everyone is together, there is always joy and laughter.

When I close my eyes before falling asleep at night, you are in front of me, and when I open my eyes in the morning, you are also in front of me.

However, no matter how difficult or wonderful life on the train is, it will eventually come to an end.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, we arrived at No. 24. The train slowly stopped at the platform, and everyone on the train had already packed their luggage.

They filed out the moment the train stopped.

After leaving the station, Huang Chen saw some familiar architectural styles around him, which were completely different from the previous S23 area.

"Master, it's getting late now. Let's stay in town for one night before leaving," Tiancheng suggested.

Huang Chen nodded, "Then I'll listen to you."

Akagi and Kaga came out and said, "Commander, you and everyone, please rest here for a while. We will find a hotel and be back soon."

Huang Chen nodded, found a random place to sit nearby, and felt the long-lost fresh air and freedom.

And those little girls who love to play have already started running around, enjoying the joy brought by jumping around and running freely.

One by one, they were like wild horses that had broken free from their reins and could not be stopped.

This large group of people is quite conspicuous even at the train station, like fireflies in the dark night.

"My Lord, it takes about half a day to drive from here to Yongyang City." Tiancheng said on the side, "Now you can contact the transportation matters, or find the ship girl headquarters here."

"There is no Kancolle headquarters here. It's just a small city, close to the inland." Enterprise shook her head. She was quite clear about the things in Area K.

"Then we can only contact intercity passenger transport." Tiancheng said.

"I know." Bumblebee said, raising his hand. "This place is called Pingzhou. I've been here with Essex before."

Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Essex.

The latter nodded and said, "I have indeed been here before, but it was a long time ago. I don't know if those places are still open. Once we confirm the hotel, Bumblebee and I will go check it out."

In less than half an hour, Akagi and the other man returned and found a hotel near the train station. It was a bit expensive, but it saved trouble.

After packing all the luggage and other things to the hotel, everyone found a restaurant to eat. The dining environment on the train was quite poor. There were stoves and other things, but some vegetables and meat did not taste as fresh after being left out for a long time.

After dinner, Essex and Bumblebee went to communicate with the intercity bus company, while everyone took a walk around.

After the walk, Jiaozi and his friend came back with good news.

Everyone returned to the hotel to sleep and will set off for Yongyang tomorrow. Everything is normal and there are no accidents.

It was not until Huang Chen woke up the next day that he discovered some memory fragments in his mind.

Chapter 157 Where is Eugen?

Although the beds on the train are wider than expected, it still does not change the fact that they are essentially narrow.

Sleeping on a narrow bed for a long time will always make people feel cramped, and even turning over is a luxury.

Compared to it, of course the big bed in the hotel is more comfortable to sleep on.

In addition, everyone was quite tired after such a long train life. After taking a walk last night, they jumped directly into bed and slept until dawn.

Of course, it is important to note that Dafeng suggested last night that Fengyun and the commander share a room, but it is not said that she had a change of heart or was helping her friends to gain benefits.

She just wanted to get the queue moving quickly so she could get her turn sooner.

Whether it was because he had tasted the sweetness or because his nature was hard to change, after ten days of train life, Dafeng himself was already quite eager to make some new things.

Such suggestions were simply ignored.

And she herself received another yellow card warning.

Everything was normal, as if he had drunk too much. He slept until the next day. It was not until there was a knock on the door that Huang Chen woke up from his sleep. Then he suddenly realized that something was wrong with yesterday's dream.

Some strange fragments of memory are emerging.

"Commander? Time to get up." Enterprise's voice came from outside the door.

Huang Chen put on his clothes, opened the door and said seriously, "I have recovered some of my memories."

"Memories?" Enterprise was startled, then a smile crossed his face. "Memories of the past harbor? That's a good thing!"

Huang Chen shook his head, "That's not what I meant."

"I mean, I remembered a memory about a ship girl in the harbor last night."

Enterprise suddenly understood, and looked a little strange. "Commander, what you mean is..."

"That's right." Huang Chen nodded. "I'm afraid there is a ship girl from our port area in this city, and I might have passed by her yesterday, but we just didn't recognize each other."

"who is it?"
