Chapter 159 Pressure

Two people, one big and one small, were walking one after the other in the garden corridor.

Su Xia was just a social animal, not a psychologist. She had never been a teacher to counsel students, and she had never comforted a friend who failed the college entrance examination or broke up. She called Danyang out on impulse, not knowing how to counsel her. She had thought of several entry points at the dinner table, but now they were all inappropriate.

Danyang walked behind with her head down.

She was a smart child and knew why the admiral specifically called her out. The admiral definitely didn't want to blame her, but wanted to enlighten her. No matter how others viewed the admiral, a bastard and a scumbag, she always believed in her admiral.

Even knowing these things did not stop her from apologizing: "Admiral, I'm sorry."

"Why does Danyang have to say sorry?" Su Xia stopped and turned around, only to see Danyang with his head down.

"It's all because of me that everyone can't eat well." Danyang said in a low voice with his hands hanging down.

"Did Danyang do anything?" Su Xia asked, "Danyang didn't do anything."

Danyang didn't say anything.

Su Xia looked at the tall magnolia tree outside the garden corridor and the lush fine-leaved banyan tree beside the pond, with countless roots hanging from the branches. This is really a garden with a very strange painting style, but the artistic conception is still there. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself, still not knowing what to say.

Su Xia leaned forward slightly while holding onto the vermilion pillars of the garden corridor. Suddenly, she said, "Are you tired?"

"Huh?" Danyang was confused.

"It's tiring, isn't it?" Su Xia said. "As the Danyang destroyer and fishery administration ship, its predecessor was the Japanese ship Yukikaze. When people say bad things about Japanese ships, I can't get involved because Akagi, Kaga, Nagato, and Mutsu all took such good care of Yukikaze. I can't refute it either because it's a fishery administration ship now."

Danyang remained silent, which was considered as his agreement.

Su Xia hesitated for a moment and asked, "Danyang moved back to the Japanese dormitory. Was it Danyang's own decision?"

"Sister Yixian asked me to move." Danyang said.

"Danyang won't think Yixian is chasing Danyang away, right?" Su Xia asked.

Danyang shook her head. She knew that Sister Yixian was doing it for her own good, not because she hated her, and was persuading her to move back.

Otherwise, whenever the Chinese restaurant made some snacks, cakes or crispy candies, they would always call her to pick them up. Whenever there was a festival or when they harvested some special ingredients, such as hairy crabs, they would always call her to come over for dinner.

Su Xia looked at the pond, suddenly laughed, and asked, "Will the Japanese internal department complain about the fishery policy?"

"Probably not." Without waiting for Danyang to speak, Su Xia spoke to himself.

Su Xia laughed and said, "In the eyes of the Japanese, Yu Zheng is not even an opponent. He is just a small minion before the Boss. Who would care about such a person?"

Historically, the Republic of China had only a few ships and was completely unable to form combat effectiveness.

The only rival of the Japanese Navy is the US Navy, which even had stronger combat power in the early stage. However, a small country is no match for a big country. A big country can withstand several failures, but a small country will be doomed if it fails once. Between Japan and the United States, when the cat doesn't want to play with the mouse anymore, the mouse has no chance.

"I think there should be some... that is," Su Xia thought for a while and said, "sometimes they will complain about it. Why is your fishery administration so troublesome? Did we provoke you? The Japanese probably don't care about fishery administration. At most, they will think about it occasionally. There are some people... But they will definitely complain about the American administration."

"Yeah." Danyang responded. She usually lives in the Japanese style and has heard people talk about the American style a lot.

"It looks the same everywhere. Why did this happen?" Su Xia said to herself, "The ship girls and the sunken warships have always been inseparable. Since you have power, you must also bear that history. The fishery administration doesn't like the Japanese, the Japanese and American hate each other, and the British, German, and French love and hate each other."

Su Xia continued, "Not to mention the outside world, even the sisters in the same garrison, the fishery administration and the Japanese, the Japanese and the American, the British, German, and French all dislike each other. That is the resentment rooted in their bones ."

"However," Su Xia said, "even though they usually dislike each other, they can unite immediately when facing outsiders. When they attack together, they will not hinder each other, but cooperate sincerely to destroy the Deep Sea. Akagi can also serve as the flagship, taking Lexington, Saratoga, and Enterprise to fight a tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"

Su Xia looked at a big carp floating up in the pond . He wanted to find a stone to hit the silly carp. He looked around, but the corridor was clean and he couldn't find a stone. Finally, he had to give up. He said, "In this case, can it be understood as - saying no with your mouth, but your body is very honest?"

Su Xia couldn't help but want to knock him on the head. How could he say that in front of a little Lolita? He was really stupid. He coughed and said, "The admiral said that there is no nationality, but there is. Danyang, do you know how I feel when facing the Japanese?"

"I don't know." Danyang said in a low voice.

"Today's shipgirls are not the battleships of the past. Today's shipgirls are the ones who protect human territory and people's lives and property. That's enough. Whether it's fishery administration, Japanese, or American, they are all the same." Su Xia said, "Akagi, Kaga, Shokaku, Zuikaku, Nagato, Mutsu... There are too many, I like everyone and I'm not stingy with rings."

Su Xia paused and said, "Danyang, do you know that when I face everyone, it's like what I did when Bismarck complained about Hu De and Hu De complained about the thief cat... What I like to do most is to speak to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way. Complaining to Bismarck about Hu De and to Hu De about the thief cat, isn't it super unprincipled and without moral integrity?"

Su Xia chattered non-stop.

Unless asked a question, Danyang never spoke, but just lowered his head and listened to Su Xia.

Suddenly she realized that Su Xia had stopped talking, so she raised her head.

Su Xia said a lot, but it felt like it was completely useless. I didn't prepare well, and I felt like I was talking in a mess, speaking whatever came to my mind. How could I enlighten people like this? I should have taken some time out to prepare myself.

Su Xia was about to give up. He said, "I still want to enlighten Danyang... No, I really can't do it. I can't do it."

"How did the admiral do it?" Su Xia said, "Those who are difficult can't do it, and those who are able to do it are not difficult. I am indeed not a good admiral."

"That's it. This is my last resort." Su Xia said, "I have no other choice."

Danyang wondered how the admiral was going to enlighten people and what his last trick was.

She found that he stretched out his hand towards her, grabbed her arm, and pulled her towards him gently, while squatting on the ground and holding her tightly with his strong arms.

"I know that Danyang is caught between the fishery administration and the Japanese system, and life is really tiring."

"The fishery administration said bad things about the Japanese. The Japanese certainly don't care about the fishery administration, but they despise and look down on the fishery administration. Danyang has no idea what to do."

"Living in the Chinese restaurant, Kagero, Shiranui, Kuroshio, and Tenjin-fu...the sisters are all in the Japanese department. Living in the Japanese department's dormitory, now it's Danyang, not Yukikaze."

"Sister Yixian is a good person and a kind sister from Danyang. Sister Chongqing is the same."

"Although Akagi-sister likes to eat, she's a good sister. Although Kaga-sister likes to drink, she's also a good sister. Nagato-sister is very handsome. Mutsu-sister is indeed a bit messy, but she will still make delicious food for everyone. And Fuso-sister, Shinano-sister... everyone is so nice to Danyang."

"But they, they just don't like each other."

"It's so difficult. What should I do? Which side should I stand on?"

"It's so annoying, just leave it like that, don't think about anything."

"If it were me, I would be caught between the two and it would be so difficult to be a human being. I think I would go crazy. Danyang is really amazing and strong."

"It's okay, it's all over, the admiral is back."

"Of course, if you have anything to say, just tell the Admiral. You can tell him everything. If you have any grievances, tell him everything."

"Shout it out. Shout it out loud."

"It's okay to cry. It's not shameful."

The admiral's hand was stroking her hair.

The admiral's embrace is really warm.

Danyang's originally stiff body softened little by little.

She thought of a lot of things. She was having a really hard time, under a lot of pressure, and her life was so tiring.

Danyang sniffed and bit his lips tightly, but finally he couldn't control himself.

"Admiral..." Danyang shouted.

"It's okay, it's okay." Su Xia said.

“I’m so tired.”
