Our Azure Story

The izakaya is located in the middle of the small street, and the wooden buildings are in harmony with the surrounding environment.

There is a half-person-high wooden standing sign at the door. Although the text on it cannot be read clearly because of the viewing angle, it is obvious that it is usually the slogan of some shops or other things.

So, are Takao and Atago here?The statement hesitated for a moment.

It has been quite a while since I came to this world, and Chen Ci has accepted the existence of his own mother-in-law, and can understand what he means to them. As his earliest married ships, Kaohsiung and Atago, what will they do when they see themselves? What about performance?How should I face them?

"Commander?" Seeing Chen Ci standing still, Kewei gently pushed his arm and asked with some doubts.

"Hmm..." Chen Ci took a long breath, then turned to Kewei and the three of them and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look."

……

The business hours of the izakaya are from 09:30 to 12:3 in the morning, and from 6:[-] to [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and they are closed outside the hours. Although such hours seem strange, after all, it is reasonable to consider that catering should be considered as much as possible Customers' time, strive to serve more customers, and expand their business income.

But as ship girls, Kaohsiung and the others are not short of money, and the izakaya tried to open for a long time at the beginning, but it was really tiring. Everyone opened the izakaya out of interest, so naturally they didn’t want to work so hard every day , so later simply set such a time.

It was time for the lunch break, and almost all the customers in the store had left. Chokai and Maya began to clean the dining table and the ground. Atago yawned, and briefly looked at the account book in the morning. In fact, it was mainly to count the consumption. The ingredients are so convenient that they can be replenished tomorrow. As for how much money they make, it is not important.

"Sister Kaohsiung, I'm hungry!" After cleaning, Niaohai took off his apron and put it on the table, went to the back kitchen and opened the curtain, and shouted inside.

"What would Chokai want to eat?" Atago stood up and stretched his waist. Recently, his shoulders have been feeling a little sore. Could it be that there has become bigger again?What an annoyance.

"Eh? Me? Tamagoyaki and edamame, um, and saury!" Although Atago-san didn't know why she was asking herself these questions, Chokai still answered obediently.

"Is that so, did you hear that? Takao, don't want tamagoyaki, edamame, and saury, whatever else you want." Atago said to Takao, who was in the back kitchen, with a smile, and saw Torikai's astonished expression as a matter of course.

"Huh?! Miss Atago, it's too much! Miss Kaohsiung, don't listen to her, I want it!" Sure enough, she knew that Miss Atago had nothing good to say, Chokai muttered dissatisfiedly, pulled the rope curtain and walked to the back, I have to tell Miss Kaohsiung in person.

"Hehe, Chokai is so cute~" Looking at Chokai with a puffy face like a child, Atago said with a smile, "Where is Maya, what do you want to eat?"

"……casual."

'Bang bang bang' came the sound of knocking on the door, Atago frowned subconsciously, obviously his business hours had been posted on the door, who would be so impolite to come and disturb at this time?

"Sorry, we are not in business now..." Atago walked out of the front desk, walked through the aisle next to it, and said to the door, but suddenly stopped when he saw a smiling figure standing there.

"Hmm... Long time no see, Atago." Looking at the black-haired beauty in front of him, Chen Ci naturally recognized her identity. After all, Atago's recognition is very obvious. I probably also know the existence of this character. After all, although the words "every time you crack down on pornography, you are there" are a joke, but there are indeed many derivative works of Atago, and Bilan is responsible for it.

Seeing Atago standing still, just staring blankly at him, Chen Ci let out a breath, then walked over, and soon, he was only one step away from Atago, this distance Chen Ci could see clearly from the corner of her eyes Mole of tears.

"What? Atago doesn't remember me?" Seeing that Atago was still in a daze, Chen Ci forced a smile, and said with a hint of a joke.

"Commander..." Atago stretched out his hand, as if wanting to touch Chen Ci, but soon as if his hand was scalded, he retracted a bit, and then Chen Ci saw that her bright eyes began to sparkle , Tears flowed from the left eye and fell on the floor with a ticking sound.

Chen Ci has heard a saying that when a person’s sadness reaches a certain point, when he can’t bear it but can’t help it, or when he doesn’t want to cry but can’t help it, tears will flow from his left eye. Chen Ci doesn’t know why, looking at When Atago's tears fell, his heart also felt very painful for a moment. It was obviously the first time we met, but the uncomfortable feeling seemed to exist in his past emotion very real.

"I'm sorry..." Chen Ci sighed, and reached out to help her wipe away the tears, but soon the tears flowed more and more, and Atago's forcibly suppressed crying began to enter Chen Ci's ears uncontrollably, Chen Ci Ci didn't know what to do, so he could only hug her tightly, and feel her tears wet his chest.

Gently patting Atago's back, there is no beauty in her heart, only pain and pity, I just hope that after crying, she can feel a little better...

In the game, Atago is a very special girl. When she was unfamiliar with Commander, she seemed like a big sister next door. But after her favorability increased, she would realize that this girl actually has a strong desire to possess. This kind of possessiveness is different from other people, but a gentle net that makes you completely fall into her bosom.

Atago in the game is actually very insecure, the desire to possess is also a manifestation of fear of losing, so after making the oath, you will be surprised to find that Atago has become that gentle girl again, because she knows that the commander will not leave her again Yes, but, I'm sorry, Atago, what kind of pain should it be for Atago to leave the original "self". ^

……

"Sister Atago..." Hearing Atago's voice stop abruptly, Maya came out subconsciously, only to see Atago-sister throwing herself into the arms of a man, that kind of crying was something he had heard at night.

"Hush~" Before Maya could continue to speak, Agano had already grabbed her arm, gestured to her lightly, motioned her to be quiet, and then pulled Maya aside.

After walking a little further away, Maya found out that there were still two acquaintances here, Noshiro and the royal fearsome, and couldn't help being surprised: "Huh?"

"Long time no see, Maya, but let's talk about something later, let Atago and the commander have some time." Agano also knew that the current situation is not the time for small talk, so he said seriously.

"Commander?" The light was not very good just now, Maya was just guessing, and now he has completely confirmed the identity of the man, but also, only he can make Atago-sister show this kind of behavior...

Chapter 240 Three Kaohsiung

Gently reaching out to pat Atago's back, Atago's crying in his arms gradually subsided, probably finally venting the accumulated depression in her heart... Chen Ci felt that her breathing became even, maybe it was because she was finally tired from crying. Well, she fell asleep with Chen Ci's chest on her back.

"Huh—" Chen Ci couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the depression caused by Atago's crying made him feel very uncomfortable, hope she wakes up better, right?Thinking of this, Chen Ci reached out to support her body, and then looked at Maya and Agano who were walking towards him.

"Commander." Maya looked at Atago's statement, and her tone was a little complicated. Unlike her sisters and younger sisters, she didn't get along with Commander much, but that doesn't mean she didn't say goodbye to Commander. The slightest resentment, especially the pain of his two sisters because of the commander's departure, caused Maya to complain about this irresponsible man for a while.

"Sorry, Maya, I'm back." Chen Ci looked at Maya. Maya is the 8-4 limited drop ship girl in the game, and she is also the limited drop ship girl who has the longest salvage time. Once the entrustment reaches level [-], it will stop asking, so the favorability should be around [-].

"En." Maya responded flatly. Originally, she wanted to scold this person severely, scolding him for making everyone suffer so much, but when she saw the pitiful statement with Sister Atago in her arms, and his guilt-ridden depression, The voice suddenly became speechless.

"...Where is Atago's room? I'll send her to her room to rest first."

"Come with me..." Maya said, turning around and walking inside.

"We're going in too, I'll trouble you to take the luggage." Chen Ci couldn't carry the luggage with Atago in his arms, so he could only say to Agano and the others, then he hugged Atago and followed Maya's footsteps.

"Let's go in too~" Agano said to Noshiro and Kewei, and then followed with his luggage.

……

Chokai, who was in the kitchen, was holding her face and watching Kaohsiung cook. She still liked these more feminine things than kendo, and her sister Kaohsiung's confidence in cooking made Chokai very envious.

There was a rather noisy sound from outside the house, the sound of the rollers of the suitcase sliding on the floor, Chokai was a little confused, so he said to Kaohsiung: "Miss Kaohsiung, you are busy first, let me go outside and have a look~"

"Yeah." While cooking, Gao Xiong didn't pay too much attention to the surprise, but just nodded to show that he knew.

Seeing Miss Takao's reaction, Chokai opened the curtain and went out, saw Noshiro and Agano pulling the suitcases, and said in surprise and joy: "Eh? Noshiro, Agano, why are you here?" ?”

Before Agano and the others could answer, she quickly noticed that Yaya was standing awesomely. Although she was very puzzled as to why Kawaii and Nodai and the others came together, she put her hands together apologetically, "Ah, I'm sorry, but Miss Wei? I didn’t notice you just now, welcome~”

"Gui'an, Miss Chokai." Kewei showed an elegant smile, bowed slightly to salute.

"Hehe, long time no see, Chokai, are you happy to see sister Agano?" Agano put the suitcase against the wall, then walked to Chokai with a smile.

"Agano, how many times have I told you that you are not my sister, really, but I am still very happy to meet you." Chokai retorted, "But why did you come back suddenly? Where are Sister Maya and Sister Atago? They Isn't it outside?"

"Oh, Atago seems to be a little tired, so the commander carried her to the room to rest, um, Maya took him there." Agano was also very happy looking at Chokai, after all, he had a good relationship before, so he smiled haha said.

"Oh—" Chokai nodded, and then exclaimed belatedly, "Commander?!"

Then he seemed to feel that his voice was a little loud, so he couldn't help covering his mouth, and then pulled Agano's arm with some excitement, "The commander you are talking about, is that the commander? He is back? Where is he?" ? Where did you go before?..."

"Stop, stop..." Stretching out his hand to cover his head, Agano hurriedly stopped Chokai who kept asking questions, "The commander is that commander, you can ask him about other things yourself when the time comes."

"Oh, that's right, then I'll go find him!" Chokai nodded, and was about to go upstairs, but was held back by Agano.

At the same time, the noise outside made Kaohsiung have to come out to have a look, and then he naturally saw a group of people outside. Although he was surprised, he still showed a smile and greeted everyone.

"Sister Kaohsiung, Commander is back!" Seeing Kaohsiung coming out, Chokai trotted to Kaohsiung and said excitedly.

"Commander?" Takao couldn't help being stunned when he heard this address, subconsciously looked at Agano and Noshiro, and saw them nodding.

"Yeah, it seems that I took Atago-san to the room to rest, let's go up and have a look?" Chokai said, although he didn't quite understand why Atago-san suddenly wanted to rest, but the commander went to Atago-san's room That's right.

"Huh... well, let's go up and have a look." Compared with Atago, Kaohsiung is obviously more able to restrain his emotions, but even so, the heart of swordsmanship that is focused on the mirror and water is almost difficult to maintain for a moment, and he took a deep breath It took several times to barely suppress the throbbing in my heart.

"Yeah." For a while, he couldn't care less about arranging a place for Agano and the others to rest. Now Chokai's mind was full of news of the commander's return, so he took Takao's arm and walked upstairs, and then saw in the corridor Maya coming from afar.

"Miss Maya, where is the commander?" Seeing Maya approaching, Chokai couldn't help asking, hoping to get a more reassuring answer.

"In Miss Atago's room." Maya nodded, then looked at Takao and Chokai, she knew that Takao and Chokai must really want to see that person now, so she turned sideways to let them pass, and walked downstairs by herself , I am going to help Agano and the others arrange it first, so I can't lose my manners in front of outsiders.

Soon, standing in front of the wooden sliding door, the outside could not hear the sound inside, and Kaohsiung felt fear for a moment, worrying whether the person behind the door would disappear as soon as the door was opened, but this kind of The entanglement was only for a moment, and soon she opened the door gently, and Chokai seemed to understand her sister's inner entanglement, so she followed Kaohsiung without saying a word.

Then Takao saw Atago lying on the tatami, and the man kneeling beside him - his husband, the man who had been away for several years, the man who could shake his sword heart in an instant.

Chapter 240 Four Like Ripples in Autumn Water (Monthly Ticket Plus Update)

Covering Atago with the quilt, Chen Ci was still in a somewhat complicated mood, but seeing Atago falling asleep sleepily, he was somewhat relieved.

Lowering his head, Chen Ci looked carefully at the black-haired beauty who still had tears on her face. Of course, he liked Atago very much. The astringency in Azur Lane was secondary. The main thing was the slightly sick Her tenderness really made Chen Ci feel that Atago is really a perfect kind of wife. After all, her possessiveness is more reflected in some small places and language, and this kind of possession does not make Chen Ci feel depressed.

Before coming here, I also imagined what it would be like to meet them, but didn't I expect it to be so dramatic?Crying until exhausted, this kind of thing has never been experienced before, but it doesn't mean that I can't understand, Atago must have been suppressing it all the time, right?She must have worked hard like this, right?

Looking at Atago who was frowning, Chen Ci stretched out his hand to smooth the corners of her brows, and watched quietly that her breathing finally started to stabilize, before Chen Ci was ready to go outside to have a look, after all, the four sisters in Kaohsiung, besides Maya, also I see, Kaohsiung and Chokai are still outside.

Before Chen Ci could stand up, Gao Xiong had already come in front of him. When their eyes met, Chen Ci and Gao Xiong couldn't help being stunned.

If it is said that Atago is the kind of gentle big sister who likes to actively tease people, then Kaohsiung is the kind of indifferent but surprisingly gentle type, which is very contrasting and cute. From a cold girl who is dedicated to pursuing kendo to there The image of a bride who will start to think about giving you a plain spoon, the charm of Kaohsiung is really poignant after the oath.

After a while, Chen Ci reacted and stretched out his hand to call Kaohsiung's name, but when he realized that Atago was still sleeping, Chen Ci stood up gently, and then took the initiative to walk towards Kaohsiung at the door.

Gently closing the door, Chen Ci looked back at Kaohsiung and Chokai who was standing a little by the wall very discerningly. Kaohsiung's hair was tied behind his head, mature and stable, and his clothes were a dark blue loose heavy cherry blossom style Clothes with wide sleeves, Chen Ci opened his mouth, and finally said: "Long time no see, Kaohsiung, and Chokai."

"Commander." Kaohsiung's tone was a little trembling when he heard the statement. Kaohsiung, who had always cultivated a calm mind, found that he still overestimated his control. When he really saw the commander's face and heard his voice, When he opened his mouth to speak, he trembled a bit.

"Long time no see, Commander." Although Chokai was obviously agitated, after the time had calmed down just now, he had actually calmed down, and he hesitated for a while looking at the statement.

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm late." Chen Ci watched Kaohsiung's eyes starting to turn red, sighed, and reached out to embrace her. Although Chokai wanted to talk to the commander, he still knew that he should Leave some space for my sister and the commander, so I stood there and glanced at the commander, then gently retreated downstairs from the side.

Leaning against the wall of the stairs, where the commander and Miss Takao could no longer be seen, Chokai stretched out his hand to lightly press the beating heart on his chest. In the arms of the commander...

……

Feel the strength of Takao holding her clothes tightly - she is suppressing, unlike Atago who is crying, Takao's character makes her unwilling to show such a weak side in front of the commander, but this kind of restraint has been too long , The emotions that have been suppressed for too long erupt like a mountain torrent. Even though Kaohsiung is gritting his teeth desperately, he still feels that his heart is torn apart by the huge sorrow, and the heart of the sword is shattered to pieces.

"Cry, I'm sorry, I'm back..." Chen Ci patted Gao Xiong's back lightly, not knowing how to comfort her, he could only hope that she could vent her inner distress.

"..." Kaohsiung leaned on Chen Ci's chest, the feeling of being surrounded by the commander's breath made her almost lose herself. For a moment, Kaohsiung even thought that it would be good to just keep leaning on the commander forever, what? You don't need to worry about it, and you don't want to bear the pain of parting alone again.

"Huh, it's okay, I'm back, and I won't leave again." Chen Ci hugged Gao Xiong's body in his arms, so it should be able to give Gao Xiong some comfort, right?

I don't know how long it took, Kaohsiung didn't cry, but just leaned on the statement in silence. Finally, I don't know if he finally suppressed his inner emotions, Kaohsiung's hand gradually loosened the clothes of the statement.

"Is it better?" Chen Ci held her hand, which was a little cold, then looked into her red eyes, and asked softly.

"Sorry, Commander, Kaohsiung was rude." As if taking a long breath, Kaohsiung pulled himself together, and then showed a forced smile.

"No, it would be fine if Kaohsiung could feel better." Chen Ci shook his head and said, then stretched out his hand to straighten her slightly messy hair, showing a smile, "Sure enough, Kaohsiung looks better like this."

"Hmm..." Seemingly not responding to Chen Ci's praise, Gao Xiong froze for a moment, then raised his head to look at Chen Ci.

"Well, I still like the smiling Kaohsiung, can I see your smile?" Chen Ci nodded, and then reached out to straighten her collar.

Although he didn't react, Kaohsiung subconsciously smiled at Chen Ci, and the momentary brightness was like ripples in autumn water.

It was not good to stand all the time, so Kaohsiung finally restrained his inner emotions, and walked to the room opposite Atago with his statement—that was her room.

"Is this a room in Kaohsiung?" Chen Ci only knew about this heavy cherry blossom-style decoration in anime. There are tatami mats and wooden decoration style. There is not much decoration in the room, which looks very simple.

"Well, Commander, do you drink tea?" Kaohsiung didn't know why, his heart, which was still very ups and downs just now, was so calm now, and why did it feel so natural to stay with the Commander?

"What tea?" Chen Ci curiously sat cross-legged at the square log table. He originally wanted to try kneeling.

"It's just ordinary green tea, doesn't Commander like it?" Kaohsiung doesn't like to drink barley tea, black tea, etc. She prefers a simple and pure cup of green tea, so there is no other tea at home, so she watched it subconsciously. Ask Chen Ci.

"I'm not picky." Chen Ci finally felt that the current atmosphere had returned to normal, so he waved his hand and said.

"Well, the commander sits down for a while. I'll go down and pour a pot of hot water up." Takao nodded towards Chen Ci, then turned around and walked out the door with a slight bend. That gesture... If I remember correctly, the traditional heavy cherry blossoms The bride's attitude toward her husband?The statement was inexplicably a little strange.

Staying alone in the room, Chen Ci didn't sit all the time, he just looked around, wooden table, knife holder, tatami, log wardrobe... I always feel that Kaohsiung's style is indeed a bit too simple.

After a while, Kaohsiung came back, of course she wasn't the only one, Chokai Maya and Kawaii Nono came for them all, except for tea, they also brought dishes with food.

Chapter 240 Five Sake and Reunion

After all, there are so many people, so a small table alone is not enough, so Chokai went to Atago's room to get a square table. Sitting in Kaohsiung, on the right is Kewei. Thinking about it this way, besides myself as the commander, among these ship girls, I am afraid that it is not the heavy cherry.

The camps in the game have more or less their historical prototypes. Although I don’t know much about the food of the cherry blossoms, Chen Ci knows that the food of the cherry blossoms should be relatively small and delicate. Of course, most of the food Chen Ci actually doesn’t like it very much. , mainly the difference in taste.

Of course, Kaohsiung, who has the ability to open an izakaya, obviously has very good craftsmanship, and various dishes are filled with exquisite dishes.

"Commander, how is Miss Kaohsiung's craftsmanship?" Chokai looked at Chen Ci with expectant eyes. She is very confident in her sister's craftsmanship, which is not inferior to Fusang at all.

"Well, it's very good!" Chen Ci swallowed the fish, then nodded and said, I have to say that Kaohsiung's craftsmanship is very good, plus the freshness of heavy cherry food, even the Chen Ci with a taste that is spoiled good.

"Of course, there is no customer who has been to an izakaya who has not been full of praise for Miss Takao's craftsmanship." Although he is not good at himself, Chokai still looks proud.

"Commander, I have a lot of room for improvement." Although Kaohsiung said this, he still showed a smile. In addition to the practice of kendo, the most important cooking skill for a wife is also what Kaohsiung cares about. , So I spent a lot of time on it, and I also consulted Fusang and Amagi for their advice. It seems that the effect is good, so Kaohsiung thought.

"By the way, Commander, do you want to drink sake? This is the best wine in our store~" After eating some edamame, Chokai felt that such a good day should be worth celebrating. Of course, wine is indispensable for celebration, after all, on weekdays Sister Li always forbids her to drink too much.

"Sake?" Chen Ci asked, have you ever heard of this kind of thing, but the number should not be too high.

"That's right, Sister Atago brewed it herself. It's delicious!" Niaohai's eyes shone brightly, and she had seen similar expressions in her eyes several times, so she obviously wanted to drink it herself. Bar?

"Heh, you want to drink it yourself?" Although Maya had been eating food in silence, she still couldn't help but mocked when she heard Chokai's words.

"Miss Kaohsiung, what do you think?" Ignoring Maya's ridicule, Chokai stretched out his hand and shook Kaohsiung's arm.

"do not ask me."

"I see, Commander, okay? Just drink a little, I guarantee you will like it too." Understanding that there is no objection in Kaohsiung's words, Chokai said to the statement, as long as the commander agrees, Miss Kaohsiung will definitely be fine.

"...Okay, let's have a try then?" The beautiful girl's acting like a baby to you is naturally hard to refuse, Chen Ci agreed after thinking about it.

"I'll get it right away!" After hearing Chen Ci's words, Chokai stood up with a smile, opened the door and ran down the stairs, as if worried that Chen Ci would go back on his word.

Because everyone was chatting and eating, so the eating speed was not too fast, Agano took a sip of sake, then smiled and said: "Miss Takao's craftsmanship is still so good, but is the izakaya closed this afternoon? "
