Our Azure Story

Then, when I woke up suddenly, I found that it was already in the afternoon, and the light coming in from the sun through the window was still not so strong. There was a thin layer of sweat on my forehead, and I wanted to wipe it off with my hand, but found that Arms are a little numb...

I actually wasted a day?It's unbelievable, this naval history is so powerful, I actually just fell asleep like this for a long time?

Then there was a burst of self-blame and a little regret in my heart.

The statement secretly swears, tomorrow, I will start to get serious, really!

Thinking of this, Chen Ci spread out the notebook on the table before, and prepared to write down his own depravity as a spur:

sunny on july [-]rd

Waste your time today!repent!

Chapter 27 Book Purchase

The next morning, a sunny day.

Chen Ci drank the last sip of porridge in the bowl, put the bowl down, and said to Yixian and the others: "By the way, I'm going to check around the Commanding Academy today. Is there any reference books or past test questions."

The statement does not know the situation near the college, but based on his experience as a student, there must be places selling teaching materials near the school.

"I replaced too many things yesterday, and I have to wash them today, so I may not be able to accompany the commander." Yixian has a busy day today.

"It's okay, I'm not a child, how can I need someone to accompany me..." Chen Ci was a little helpless. At first, Yixian was afraid that Chen Ci would run away suddenly by himself again. After the relationship broke through, Yixian always Like treating Ping Hai, I always feel that the commander needs all-round care, so the statement is very useful and a little helpless.

"Okay, I'll just go out for a walk today by myself, just take it as a familiarity with the road conditions, and don't go out in the future and find the way home." Chen Ci waved his hand, while slightly moving the tableware in front of him, jokingly said.

Then he saw Yixian's worried expression, she seemed really worried about getting lost?The statement was a little helpless.

"Yixian... Forget it, I'm sure I'll be fine, just have more confidence in your commander!"

Yixian hesitated to speak, and Ning Hai on the side said, "But the last time you were in Yunchuan, didn't you get lost..."

It was the second day of the reunion with Yixian and the others. Because there was no salt at home, Chen Ci volunteered to buy it, but he got lost. Later, Yixian and the others looked around anxiously, only to find that Chen Ci was leaving home alone. He hesitated on the road not far away.

"It was an accident... It's just that I didn't remember the way carefully when I went out, and the houses in your neighborhood are all the same..." There are some black lines on Chen Yu's forehead. This kind of shameful black history is indeed true, but it's just an accident. At that time, my mind was a little hot, and I didn't pay attention to the road when I went out, so I got lost in the end.

However, in the end, Chen Ci still went out alone, and Yixian also understood that he should not be too strict with the commander, but he still told him several times in a funny way, making Chen Ci think that he was in primary school, or that it was the first time he was alone Kind of like going to school...

In July, especially in the coastal cities, it is still early in the morning, and the heat of the weather can already be felt. Chen Ci walks under the shade of trees, avoiding the sun.

Because there are typhoons from time to time during the rainy season along the coast, trees such as ginkgo and banyan trees that are more resistant to bad weather are planted on the road. The green leaves also leave enough shade for pedestrians on both sides of the road.

Just a few streets away from my home is the legendary Command Academy. According to the history of this world, the Command Academy was born only a few decades ago, and its history is not that long.

Walking alone, Chen Ci's footsteps were faster, and he soon came to the gate of the Command Academy. He was about to go in and visit, but was told that ordinary people were not allowed to enter without a certificate, and the Command Academy also refused to visit.

It's a bit regrettable, but Chen Ci can understand it. After all, it is a military academy in a sense, but he has come here, and Chen Ci is going to take a look around. Anyway, visiting is not his main purpose.

If you just look at the architecture of the command academy, it is actually like an ordinary university, nothing more than covering a larger area. From the overview of the entrance, the statement is estimated to be two or three times larger than my own university. The entrance of the academy is made of marble. This is very similar to Chen Ci's previous high school.

Through the gate and the not-so-high wall, Chen Ci can easily see the buildings inside. The milky white walls are very natural and harmonious in the green shade. There seem to be several small red buildings in between, but they are too far apart. The statement is not very clear.

It's not interesting to look at it from too far away, but it's not very disappointing. Chen Ci continued to walk along the gate of the command academy to the streets on both sides.

If your own experience is good, at least there will be more than one bookstore or store for teaching materials. After all, there will definitely be a lot of teaching materials at the gate of the school. It is best for students to earn money.

The fact is the same. The streets on both sides of the coffee shop, milk tea shop, and hot pot shop look like a place with one-stop service for eating, drinking and having fun. After walking a little, I saw a bookstore next to the coffee shop, because the outside of the bookstore The door is made of translucent glass, and there are large floor-to-ceiling windows, so Chen Ci can roughly see the situation inside the bookstore at a glance. There are not many people, probably because it is the holiday period?

Chen Ci was thinking, and as he opened the door, the air conditioner in the room sent a gust of cold wind. It seemed that there was a person in his early thirties sitting at the cash register, wearing a shirt and a woman's suit, with short hair that looked very neat and neat. A mature woman who looked at the name tag on her chest seemed to be the female owner of this store.

"Welcome!" Seeing someone push the door, the proprietress said with a smile on her face, subconsciously looking at the incoming guest, who was a young and handsome man.

Chen Ci politely replied 'Hello', and then went straight to the bookshelf, because Chen Ci usually does it by himself first, and then seeks help if it doesn't work.

Looking at the category guide on the side of the red-painted wooden bookcase, Chen Ci glanced at literature, politics, military affairs... huh?His eyes stopped for a while, ship girl?what is this?

Chen Ci was a little surprised, and then glanced at the bookshelf. I have read "The Origin of the Ship Girl" by myself, but it is said that it is only a scholar's guess and has not been officially endorsed; It is to record some so-called naval anecdotes. What does this thing have to do with the ship girl?The statement complained inwardly.

"Illustrated Book of Ship Girls", "There Can Only Be One Wife in the Coral Sea", "Commander's Instruction Manual", "Three Hundred Questions and Answers for Ship Girls", "Appreciation of Ship Girls"... There are all kinds of messes, and there are even some novels about Ship Girls written by others. Just no test questions and reference books...

There is no way, Chen Ci randomly picked a few books of interest, such as this "Appreciation of the Ship Girl", the author's writing is fluent, the comments are sharp, and the opening is old... Ah no, the opening is very honest, and Chen Ci mainly wants to study the author's copywriting, and is not interested in the content of the review at all!After picking up the book, and not forgetting the business in the statement, I went to the front desk to ask the proprietress for help.

"Hello, do you have the previous exam questions and related materials of the Command Academy?" Ask for help if you can't find it, no shame!This is a quote from an up who is very fond of a certain statement.

The proprietress froze for a moment, looked at the statement for a while, seemed to have come to her senses, and suddenly said enthusiastically: "Is the customer here to take the entrance exam for the Command Academy? Our store has everything you mentioned. Customers, come with me." Bar."

Saying so, the proprietress came out from the counter, walked towards the bookshelf inside, tiptoed to pull out several books from the bookcase, and handed Chen Ci, "That's it, one is a compilation of exam questions over the years, and the other two are ours. The store spent a lot of money to invite the instructors of the Conducting Academy to compile the interview skills, which is the only one!"

Chapter 28 Get started

Chen Ci was a little surprised that he found the information he wanted so smoothly?A little suspiciously said:

"Written by the instructor of the real Command Academy?"

"Of course, we operate with integrity, and we are honest and honest!" The proprietress patted her chest, causing a wave of waves, but Chen Ci was no longer the pure and innocent boy in the past, so he looked away after a short glance.

Chen Ci thought for a while, and then said: "Tell me, how much is it?" The general store's intentions are nothing more than adding money and killing people when they say that this is the only one!

"Chenghui 1000 yuan, you really have a good eye." The proprietress smiled, her store relies on these candidates every year to boost its performance. The two accounted for about one-third of the income of his bookstore.

"1000... You are robbing!" Chen Ci knew that the boss wanted the lion to open his mouth, but he didn't expect that she was going to eat people directly?Really treat me like a fool, two books are 1000... Resist the desire to complain.

"It's not expensive at all! Think about it, this is an exclusive information. Unlike the initial test, there is no question bank for the interview. Maybe this book may help improve your chances of passing the interview and directly open the gap with many people. You just say it's worth it?" The proprietress replied, besides, what's better than robbery, the profit is high and stable.

"No, no one can prove this so-called probability, just because the price is so high? Is it reasonable?" Chen Ci rolled his eyes, saying that the probability is just a cake, whoever believes it is stupid, but the boss's book should be no problem Yes, after all, it's located near the command academy, so the boss can't just trick people into smashing the signboard for a little profit.

"Okay, tell me how much you think?" The boss knows that if you are willing to bargain, it means that you want to buy it. If this is the case, then it is easy to talk.

After thinking about the bargaining skills he learned from his mother, Chen Ci muttered: "200." Be a little more conservative, and don't directly wipe out the zero.

The proprietress looked like 'I heard that right', "200? Are you serious?", the boss's chest fluctuated, and his emotions were a little agitated.

"400, how about making a concession?" Chen Ci looked at the boss's expression and really felt that he might have cut it a bit, so he should take a step back.

"Impossible. In this case, you can only look elsewhere." The boss looked at Chen Ci with a compromised expression, and became even angrier.

Of course, there was a stalemate for a while, and the final submission failed, but the boss still regressed, and the transaction was 750, with a set of past exam questions attached.

Walking out of the store, Chen Ci began to review what happened just now in his heart. Obviously, his mother basically had no problem with this kind of bargaining every time, so why didn't he succeed?And there is one thing to say, I sometimes feel that my mother can't bear to bargain with me, but I basically succeed every time.

It's not that there is a lack of this little money, it's just that Ning Hai has been infected during this period of time, as she said, every penny cut off is a net profit.

Holding the materials he bought, Chen Ci continued to prepare to look at a few more stores. Several stores found that what the proprietress said was true. This material was really exclusive to her, and no other stores had it.

After visiting one or two bookstores casually, Chen Ci was not going to continue, and he came out too late, so Yixian might have to worry again. Looking back on the way he came, Chen Ci finally finished what he had to do today. The basic things are ready, let's start working hard tomorrow, we need to get serious.

……

It's time for the second day.

Now that he was about to start studying seriously, Chen Ci naturally stopped sleeping in. Instead, he started to get up early at eight o'clock, and came to his study amidst the twittering of sparrows in the shade of the trees outside the house.

This was specially arranged by Yixian for Chen Ci. The entire room consisted of a desk, a chair, a bookcase, and a wooden coat hanger next to the bookcase.Originally, Yixian planned to move a sofa from the living room, but Chen Ci refused, after all, sometimes a too comfortable environment is not suitable for hard work.

I just glanced at the test questions yesterday, and opened the test booklet while making a statement. These are the test questions for the past ten years. They are divided into three modules, basic common sense questions, logical reasoning questions, and a writing question. Mostly it is a test of test-taking ability.

Fortunately, because of the postgraduate entrance examination before graduation, Chen Ci still practiced a lot of logic and writing. Only common sense is relatively weak because it involves a lot of history, politics, geography and humanities in this world, but Most of the topic setting is more of basic common sense, so it is just a simple matter for the statement. After all, years of exam-oriented education are not covered.

Thinking about it this way, the tension in Chen Ci's heart relaxed a little. If his estimation was correct, he could finish his preparations before the exam in terms of normal progress.

While turning his pen, he was thinking about a rough study arrangement. After he had a rough plan in mind, Chen Ci took out a book of naval history from the bookshelf and began to read it until Yixian gently pushed the door open and called him to have breakfast.

Hearing Yixian's voice, Chen Ci raised his head and glanced at the wall clock on the wall, an hour had passed.

"Is time so fast?" Chen Ci put a pen in the book to mark, rubbed his eyes, and said to Yixian, "Okay, I'll come right away!"

After a simple breakfast, Chen Ci was going to continue studying with the spirit of the morning, so he went back to the study and closed the door. I love learning, and learning makes me happy. I meditated in my heart and continued to spread the book.

When people are completely immersed in doing something, they will have this feeling of time flowing like water. Before they know it, it is already 12:30. It is not until the smell of the kitchen spreads to the tip of the nose that Chen Ci's stomach realizes that it is time to arrive. It's time for dinner.

So he put down the book and walked out the door just in time to meet Ning Hai who seemed to be about to knock on the door.

Ning Hai, who was wearing a pink fluffy long dress, looked at Chen Ci and said, "It's just in time for the commander to arrive, and Sister Yixian asked you to eat."

It seems that because Chen Ci started to study hard, Ning Hai seemed to have a softer attitude towards him, and even directly grabbed Ping Hai who was about to go to the study to play with the commander a few times.

"Well, I just smelled it, and I'm a little hungry," Chen Ci nodded as he said, while walking towards the kitchen, "Let's go, let's see what delicious food Yixian made today."

The dining table is next to the kitchen, in the kitchen, and Yixian just put the last dish on the plate, looked up and saw Chen Ci and said with a smile: "The commander came just in time, you must be hungry."

Then, as if thinking of something, Yixian shook the spoon in his hand lightly, and said: "By the way, Commander, I made a cool tonic, you can try it to cool off the heat."

Qingbuliang, Chen Ci has only heard that it is a kind of medicinal food for relieving summer heat, but he has never eaten it, so he subconsciously walked to the table and looked at it. A large white porcelain bowl is full of Qingliangbu, Chen Ci The word saw the pig bone or pork?There are also goji berries, red dates, pear slices... some of them I didn't recognize, this is because Chen Ci had watched Qingliangbu's cooking video before, and I barely recognized it from my impression.

Yixian sat down after taking care of the pot and stove, and served everyone a bowl with a spoon. How should I put it, the taste is very fresh and slightly sweet, but can this thing really cool down the heat?The statement expressed doubts that it was not as real as ice cream.

After lunch, I was going to take a nap first, so as not to be sleepy in the afternoon and affect my efficiency. I told Yat-sen to remember to wake me up at that time, and then... When I woke up, it was already 02:30, and Yat-sen woke me up gently.

I have to say that it is too easy to get sleepy in the summer afternoon, which is the so-called spring fatigue, summer sleepiness, autumn nap and hibernation.

But it’s only the first day, if you want to be lazy on the first day, how can you persist in the future?Chen Ci understands the principle of guarding against inevitability, so he struggled to wash his face with cold water, patted his face with his hands, and walked into the study.

Today's plan hasn't been completed yet, so I can't rest and be lazy—why do these words sound familiar?

Chapter 29 Yorktown Intuition

Just as the statement continued to review hard.

The home of the sisters in York City, who is less than 10km away from where Chen Chen lived.

York City, who was wearing a sleeveless long dress at home, was sitting in the living room. Haman was sleeping soundly on her lap, while gently stroking Haman's hair with his hands. York City was also thinking about why he was always in a bad mood recently. Ning, as if something is about to happen, but it shouldn't be a bad thing, this is what her intuition told her.

Gently put Haman down from his lap, York City slightly adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner, and then walked lightly to the door, the hot and dry air outside the room rushed towards his face, with a little smell of sea breeze.

The Vesta is wearing a white wide-brimmed hat and taking care of the flowers and plants in the yard. Because of the sun, the flowers and plants in the yard are a little wilted.

Taking off the sun hat from the window and putting it on, York City walked up to the Vesta, "Take a rest, Vesta."

The kitchen god looked up and replied: "It's okay, I'm not hot, and sitting at home is boring." While talking, she continued to lower her head and use a small shovel to remove the weeds.

After thinking about it, York City looked at the hot sun in the sky, clapped his hands together, and suddenly suggested: "By the way, I bought watermelon yesterday, and it has been chilled for a long time. You can take a break, wash your hands, and wait for a while." I'll get it."

Then she turned and walked back into the house

The Vesta looked at it, but there were not so many weeds. Forget it, let’s do it tomorrow. Put the small shovel under the eaves, wash your hands in the pool in the yard, and sit at the table in the corridor. It is a place specially arranged for afternoon tea.

After a while, York City came out with a red plate filled with red and green watermelon slices, put the plate on the table, then gently gathered the hem of the skirt with his hands, and sat opposite the Vesta.

"Taste it, see if it's sweet or not?" Reaching out to pick up a piece of watermelon, York City gently pushed the plate forward.

"It tastes good, quite sweet." The Kitchen Goddess took a small bite and ate like a lady.

"By the way, York City, where is Kitty Hawk?" It seems that I haven't seen Kitty Hawk since this morning. Different from the super-standard life in ordinary ships, the York City Sister Company also has an eagle—the Grim Reaper. The little eagle can probably be understood as the sister of Grim Reaper.

"The child must have gone to the beach, right?" As the owner, York City can sense the approximate location of his kitty, and even share his vision with it during battle.

"After all, the kitty doesn't like the urban area, but it should come soon." Yorktown smiled, and speaking of the three Yorktown sisters, Bumblebee didn't have a pet eagle.

As if remembering something funny, York City chuckled and said: "Speaking of which, the commander used to joke that the Hornet was wrong, and Tirpitz was my sister... Bismarck-class Hornet ?”

The Vesta didn't know how to respond. In fact, since the commander disappeared and everyone left the port area, in the first days, they always watched York City sitting alone in a daze, and everyone would avoid mentioning command in front of her. Officer, but York City took the initiative to mention it, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

York City looked at the female Vesta who was hesitant to speak, and murmured: "I don't know why, I always dream about him in my dreams recently, and he said to me in the dream, York City, I'm back."

Gently put down the watermelon in his hand, York City gently stroked his chest with his hand, there was the sound of the beating heart, and continued: "I have a hunch, we may see the commander soon..."

However, York City's premonition did not expect to become a reality soon. Although objectively the distance is less than ten kilometers, the world is sometimes surprisingly small and sometimes very large.

……

The time flies is a few days.

And just on the front line, here is an island with a diameter of more than 50 kilometers, and it is also a place where the frontline girls live temporarily.

A small villa facing the sea is hidden among the tropical forests. In the living room on the first floor of the villa, a young girl with blond hair tied into two ponytails is lying on the sofa without any image, her slender thighs are casually placed on the sofa, On the sofa next to her was a wheat-colored woman with long bangs covering half of her face.

"Bumblebee, why did you go there just now?" Although he is always taciturn outside, Northampton still speaks a little more in front of his friends.

"I'm also very puzzled. People from the Maritime Safety Administration just found me and said that someone in my family asked them to inquire about my current situation. It must be Miss York City, so I asked them to send a letter back for me." Bumblebee was a little weak , the battle has just ended, and I have to report back to my family, so I am a little tired for a while.

"Then why don't you go back?" Northampton knew that it must be York City who asked the company to find someone from the Maritime Safety Administration. Naturally, the purpose was to hope that the Hornet would go back.
