The Reborn Admiral of the Ship Girl

"I thought you would stay until the end."

Veneto crossed his arms and looked at Zhong Yu, who was drinking coffee with a relaxed expression.

"I did have this idea, but later I thought it would be better to take my ship girls to visit various places. After all, they don't have much time like this."

Zhong Yu drank the coffee in one gulp, "It's okay, we will definitely meet again anyway. There is an old Chinese saying that "there is no banquet that never ends", which probably means that there will be no time when there is no separation, so eldest sister, can you Don’t be sentimental.”

"Who would be sentimental..." Veneto complained, narrowing his eyes.

"Veneto, make him a cup of coffee."

"Huh? Does that mean the coffee I've been drinking is not brewed by my eldest sister?" Zhong Yu suddenly looked at the smiling old man.

"Of course not. Not many people can drink the coffee Veneto brews."

"It's always been Rome."

"Oh..." Zhong Yu looked at Roma, who was standing behind Veneto and wearing sunglasses, and could feel the other person's eyes shining directly on him from behind the sunglasses.

Zhong Yu raised his glass to her and said, "The coffee is delicious, Miss Roma."

"Thanks for the compliment."

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised. It was so easy to reveal her emotional fluctuations. Is it really okay to let her stand behind Veneto...

"So, eldest sister?"

"I want a drink too."

"...Oh, okay, Roman, go get the coffee beans and the grinder, and the four cups."

"Big, big sister, do I have a share too?"

"Go quickly."

So Roma rushed out at a very fast speed. Perhaps the coffee made by Veneto himself was indeed delicious to a certain extent.

"Then I'll take my leave."

Standing up and bowing slightly to Veneto, Zhong Yu walked towards the door.

"Don't you need us to see you off? This seems to be the way it is done in China."

"Of course, it's just a normal departure. Also, eldest sister..."

Zhong Yu suddenly collided with his own eyes and stared straight at him, which made Veneto's eyes freeze. Obviously, Zhong Yu was serious about saying something.

"I've wanted to say this since the first time I saw you..."

"what?"

"... Huh." Zhong Yu took a deep breath, then looked at Veneto quickly but clearly and said, "Sister, if you want, you can launch a torpedo, right?"

"Varied……"

As soon as he finished speaking, before the two of them could react, Zhong Yu had already rushed out of the door and closed it behind him. When he closed it, Zhong Yu vaguely heard loud laughter and angry sounds inside.

I'm sorry, sister, but I really want to say something. Please forgive me for my little prank.

"Commander, what happened? Why are you breathing so hard?"

In the command room, Missouri was leisurely drinking scented tea, and then Zhong Yu rushed in very urgently.

"No...ha, you can...leave now..."

"Okay, everyone is ready."

"Go...go, full speed ahead."

Then he sat on the chair as if he had collapsed.

"Okay, I told the others, what happened?"

Missouri hurriedly handed Zhong Yu a glass of water and looked at Zhong Yu whose breathing was gradually calming down with some worry.

"Haha, I just almost got caught playing a prank."

"..."

Missouri, mixed feelings.

"What about Lexington and the others?"

"I'm in the lounge below because I wanted to come up and take a look at the scenery."

"That's right, they should be there. Zero, retrieve the mission from the Ness Islands."

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, there's something I care about over there."

Zhong Yu responded with a fake smile. The mission to the Nice Islands was still fresh in Zhong Yu's memory. It would not be an exaggeration to say that what he experienced there led to his future destruction.

This time with the help of armor, I wonder if I can nip it in the cradle...

"Speaking of which, there are only two of us here now."

After a short while, about ten minutes later, Missouri suddenly spoke to Zhong Yu who was reading a book.

"Well, didn't you already say this when you first started?"

"It's just that I suddenly realized, wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity?"

Missouri first went to the door and closed it, then approached Zhong Yu with a provocative smile, which made Zhong Yu who was sitting on the chair have to raise his head to look at her.

"What a pity...what do you want to do?"

"Hum..."

Missouri's knees fell on Zhong Yu's chair, or between his hips to be precise, and one hand gently caressed Zhong Yu's cheek.

"What to do... Of course it is that..."

Hearing this, Zhong Yu's expression became strange, "Do it here? Is it okay?"

"Of course it doesn't matter. I locked the door just now, and I told the people below that you were reading a book. Everyone is playing below. No one will notice."

"Really? It's up to you." After saying that, Zhong Yu gently stroked Missouri's waist like Missouri did.

"Well..." Missouri looked angrily at Zhong Yu, who was unmoved and his eyes were still on the book.

…………

"General."

With the move, Missouri's coach was undoubtedly forced into a desperate situation.

"Really, there is no way to defend at all." Missouri sighed slowly.

"When playing chess, you can't just look at one point, you have to look at the whole picture, and you also have to be able to anticipate your opponent's moves to counterattack. It's not easy for beginners to get started. Are you still coming?"

"of course."

Zhong Yu and Missouri were playing chess from China. When Missouri had nothing to do, he went out for a walk, but when he came back, he had something like this in his hands. And he hid it from everyone except Zhong Yu, intending to give everyone a surprise. Missouri said so, and Zhong Yu happened to know something about this, so he and Missouri quietly started special training.

However, the learning ability of ship girls is really amazing. How long did it take me to get to this point? It seems like a week?

Zhong Yu looked at Missouri who was thinking, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As a chess game with a profound history, there is no doubt that Chinese chess has been well known to Chinese people even in Zhong Yu's era. At that time, the young and ignorant Zhong Yu knew chess and after studying it, he claimed to be invincible in the world. Then he was defeated miserably by the old man who lived downstairs in his house. For a teenage boy, that was a huge blow, but Zhong Yu was not discouraged. After studying hard for a period of time, he was crushed even more neatly.

Later, the old man moved, and Zhong Yu also gave up chess. After reincarnation, Zhong Yu challenged again, and then - he failed completely.

Later, when he heard that the opponent seemed to be the chess champion of a certain year, Zhong Yu felt relieved.

The road you have to walk is still long...

Looking at Missouri, whose brows were furrowed following his move, Zhong Yu sighed in his heart. But if only he could realize that Missouri's purpose is simply to beat a bunch of newbies who don't even know the rules, and if only Missouri could realize that too.
