Chapter 178 Return to the Academy
Walking out of the alley, Qin Ge looked back and saw that Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan were still standing at the door, waving at him and Guanghui.
Qin Ge turned around and waved at the two of them, then he and Guanghui left the old street without looking back.
Sitting in the car on the way back to the academy, Guanghui said to Qin Ge, "Both old men are nice. It seems that the commander has met some kind people."
"Haha, of course, they all treat me like their son." Qin Ge said with some nostalgia.
"Then let's visit them more often in the future?" Guanghui said.
"Well, when we have nothing to do later, we can come and see them. And there are many interesting things in the old street. I believe they will like it here too." Qin Ge said with a smile.
" That's true. It's not only lively, but also has beautiful scenery. Let's come together next time." Guanghui nodded.
"Um."
As the night deepened, the two returned to the Commander Academy. The other members of the fleet had also returned, but they all stayed in the public rest area with anxious looks on their faces.
When everyone saw Qin Ge and Guanghui walking up the stairs together, they all stood up, left their seats and walked up to the two of them.
"Commander, where have you been? Why did you come back only now?" Prince Eugen said to Qin Ge.
"Guanghui and I went to an old street in the suburbs. We were supposed to be back in the afternoon, but we ran into an acquaintance, so we were delayed for a while." Qin Ge said to everyone.
"Acquaintances? Commander, you probably don't have many acquaintances in this world, right? And the two people you are most familiar with should be in Minghai City, right? You probably don't have many acquaintances in Shenhua City, right?" Prince Eugen, who knew Qin Ge's background, naturally knew how many people Qin Ge knew in this world.
"Yes, but this time they are really acquaintances." Qin Ge explained to everyone, "Old Man Wan and Aunt Wan who were in Ninghai City before came to Shenhua City, and they live in the old street. When Guanghui and I came back from there, we accidentally saw them, so we chatted there for a while.
But I didn’t want you to worry, so I didn’t stay long. We came back after dark.”
"I see. Then the commander will have one more place to go when he has free time in the future." Prince Eugen said.
Qin Ge smiled and said, "I guess so. Next time I have time, I'll take you there to have a look. We can also play around in the old street. I went there today and it felt quite lively, and there were a lot of fun things. Guanghui and I bought some extra things and asked her to bring them back for you."
After Qin Ge finished speaking, Guanghui walked to the table in the public lounge area with a smile, then opened his ship suit space and took out the items he had bought on the old street one by one.
"What is this thing? It looks big?" Spence said, pointing at something.
"This is called diabolo, I think." Hiei said to Qin Ge.
"Yes, this is indeed called diabolo. It's made by stringing two sticks together with a rope, and then shaking it to play with it." Guanghui said to Hiei.
"Shaking for fun?" Spence asked puzzledly.
Qin Ge smiled and said, "The space here is relatively small. Diabolo is more fun to play in an open area. When I have time tomorrow, I will take you to the entrance of the guesthouse to play."
"Thank you, Commander." Spence said to Qin Ge.
After spending some time together, Spence didn't seem so scared in front of Qin Ge anymore, and he would say a few words from time to time. However, most of the time he still looked weak, as if he could cry at any time.
"It doesn't matter." Qin Ge smiled.
The others also picked out some of their favorite things from the items on the table. Seeing everyone's happy expressions, Qin Ge couldn't help but smile. It seemed that this trip to the old street was not bad.
Not only did I have a relatively complete date with Guanghui, but I also met Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan. The toys I brought back when I came back were liked by other people. It was a pretty good trip.
"By the way, Master." Belfast walked to Qin Ge's side and asked him, "I wonder if Master and Miss Guanghui have eaten outside together?"
Qin Ge shook his head. "Not yet. I was going to have dinner with you guys, but because I met Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan, I came back late."
"I see. Actually, no one has eaten yet and has been waiting for you two to come back. I'll go heat up some food for everyone," said Belfast.
"Okay, thank you for your help, Belfast." Qin Ge nodded and said.
"No trouble, this is what I should do." Belfast smiled.
After Belfast went to heat up the meal, a group of people surrounded Guanghui and asked him what happened when he and Qin Ge were on a date.
Guanghui was not a stingy person, so he sat down and began to tell everyone about the things he encountered during his date with Qin Ge. He also took out the dough figurine that he treasured and let everyone see it. Such actions naturally made everyone begin to yearn for the old street.
Looking at the girls getting along harmoniously with each other, Qin Ge suddenly felt an infinite sense of warmth. Perhaps it would be nice to keep living like this forever.
Belfast didn't need long to heat up the meal. It was ready soon and put in the ship's space. Afterwards, everyone talked about the interesting things they encountered during the commissioned mission while eating.
With the sound of laughter, even Helena, who had a rather sad expression before, became calm.
The days that followed were like this, with constant training and constant commissions, Qin Ge's strength as a ship girl was steadily improving step by step. On the other hand, his first year of school was coming to an end, and the current second-year students were about to have their graduation ceremony and medal awarding ceremony.
This is also the busiest time in the school every year. Not only are the school’s tutoring team busy, but the graduating students are also busy.
Because they will soon face graduation, and after graduation they will face war. Excitement, anticipation, anxiety and other emotions surround the graduates, making the already hot summer even more restless.
Qin Ge, who originally thought that it had nothing to do with him, was planning to take advantage of this period of time to rush to the warehouse early and take on a few better tasks, but he did not expect that the Prince of Wales had already arranged his tasks for him.
However, when Qin Ge saw the specific tasks, he was still a little nervous, because the Prince of Wales had added his name to the list of honorary mentors...
