Chapter 26: Great Shift of the Universe
Su Xia was not a famous detective after all. He was not even a fan of detective games, novels, or TV dramas. Even if he stood in front of the bulletin board for a whole night, he would not be able to figure out what was going on. But he had not been trying very hard.
If it weren't for the messy advertisements and job postings on the notice board, which looked really interesting. Some were made in Word and then printed out, and I have to say they were quite ugly. Some were hand-painted, not beautiful, but very interesting. He would have been ready to leave long ago.
Su Xia wanted to continue reading, but the little girls around her became bored. Xiao Hua took out the pocket book, and Xiao Zhai had almost finished the snacks on her. He was about to say let's go, when he noticed someone walking towards him out of the corner of his eye.
"Good evening, Admiral."
The girl's long, burgundy hair was tied behind her head with a hairpin. She had a delicate and charming face, and the top two buttons of her clothes were undone.
The figure, body shape, and appearance completely matched the person in her mind. It was an inexplicable feeling, just due to her personality. Su Xia was still a little worried and said, "Munich?"
During World War I, all naval powers designed battleships with larger scale and more powerful firepower. Since battleships were extremely expensive to build and maintain, the arms race brought serious financial burdens to all countries. Therefore, the five naval powers of the United States, Britain, Japan, France and Italy signed the so-called "Washington Naval Treaty", which imposed strict restrictions on the development of naval equipment in various countries.
The 15 years from the signing of the treaty to its implementation were known as the "Navy Holiday" era, during which other large battleship construction plans of various countries were forced to be terminated or cancelled. Only seven battleships were retained for various reasons. These were the so-called Big 7.
Mutsu, the second ship of the Nagato-class battleship, a member of the Big 7, is a famous figure in history.
It's just that in the game, because he has never been given the opportunity to transform, and even has no skills, his strength is not very good. He has been on the scene for many years and is famous in history, but he has nothing. I can't understand what the game company is thinking.
However, although its strength is not good and it can only be said to be a third-line battleship, the portraits in the game are quite top-notch, especially the portrait of the severely damaged one, which is full of color and coolness.
In this way, Su Xia would of course reach the maximum level early, then give out rings, and then... keep them as ballast.
If you don't have enough strength, what else can you do except to bolster your nacelles?
Mutsu said, “Yes.”
"Good evening." Su Xia greeted, making small talk, "Why are you here?" The building in front was brightly lit. Apart from the street lamps, there were only a few lights nearby. The square near the residential area was still quite quiet.
"I was eating over there and saw the admiral here, so I came out to look for him." Mutsu pointed to a Japanese-style building not far away, which was hidden in a green shade and difficult to spot if you didn't look carefully. "Isn't the admiral at Lexington's house? Why is he here?"
Su Xia replied: "Come out for a walk."
"Does it help digestion after a meal?"
"almost."
"Where are you going next?"
"have no idea."
"Since you don't know, then come and sit in our pub for a while." Mutsu clapped his hands, placed them sideways, and tilted his head, acting cute and asking for a favor.
I have been prepared for a long time. It is not so easy to bring the admiral to Sister . Maybe I have to go through a lot of difficulties. I didn't expect the challenge to appear so soon. Xiao Zhai interrupted and said, "Oh no... Admiral, you promised to play with us, you can't break your promise."
Xiaohua stepped forward and said, "Admiral, you promised us." Regardless of the admiral's whereabouts, Sister Mutsu could not be allowed to take her away no matter what.
Mutsu said, " Izakaya , wouldn't it be perfect to go to an izakaya?"
"Izakayas are not fun." Xiao Zhai said bluntly, "Admiral, we are leaving, let's go." She took Su Xia's hand and dragged her forward.
Even though Mutsu's charm was infinite, and he lived in desolate valleys, high mountains and deep ravines, as a gentleman, Su Xia didn't even look at her.
Su Xia valued her promises. Since she had promised the three little ones, she had to keep her word even though they were children. Zengzi slaughtered a pig, and the ancients were able to do it. Modern people are still lagging behind. Su Xia could only shrug at Mutsu and give him an apologetic smile: "Next time."
"Today is the day." However, Mutsu did not give up, and wrapped his hands around Su Xia's arms. Not hugging, but wrapping, a skill several levels higher than hugging, and said coquettishly, "Zuihe and I made a bet that we must bring the admiral over. The admiral can't bear to see Mutsu lose... Admiral, please."
Su Xia wanted to pull his hand out, but he was too weak. In fact, the harder he tried, the tighter Mu Ao held him. He suddenly didn't dare to move.
"Mutsu-sister, what are you doing?" Xiao Zhai said, "Mutsu-sister, you are an adult, and you are fighting with a child for the admiral position... You have no shame."
"That's right, that's right." Xiaohua nodded.
"Half an hour, half an hour will be enough." Others wanted to save face, but Mu Ao didn't care that much. She could still turn the tables. "Xiao Zhai and Xiao Hua, don't be so stingy. You two stingy bastards."
Faced with the shameless adults, the two little girls are obviously no match.
Xiao Zhai thought quickly and said, "Sister Mutsu, if you snatch someone away, we will have to call for help."
Mutsu countered, "Go ahead and shout, the more you shout the better, and then you won't get anything."
At the critical moment, we still have to look at Xiao Luo, but she is acting in her true colors, saying fearfully: "It's so scary... Please don't do this, okay."
If it were someone else, they would have stopped right then, but Mu Ao looked at Xiao Zhai and Xiao Hua and said, "Okay, Xiao Luo is scared now, it's all your fault for being so stingy."
"Ah." Xiao Zhai and Xiao Hua opened their mouths slightly, really not knowing what to do.
"Okay, Xiao Luo, don't be afraid. Sister Mutsu will take you to eat delicious oden and plum juice later. There is also ice cream." Xiao Zhai and Xiao Hua Ren are both smart kids, but Xiao Luo is the only one who is truly innocent. Mutsu is not that cruel, but it is impossible for him to let her go.
After comforting the little girl, Mutsu asked, "Don't you two know how to agree?"
Admitting defeat, Xiao Zhai said, "Half an hour, we agreed on half an hour."
"I'll try my best." Mutsu said perfunctorily, turning to Su Xia, "Okay, they agreed. Admiral, let's go."
Su Xia had no choice but to agree. His arms were entangled, and he actually expected more in his heart, but he had to maintain his image, so he said, "Let's go, you let me go first."
Su Xia tried to recall. According to the lines in Mutsu's game, the girl shouldn't be that... wild? So, it was already certain that this world was not the game world, otherwise the ship girl would be an ordinary person who would grow up. She kept calling herself a young lady. Was there still a family of nobility or nobility here? But here, there were elves and heroic spirits. This was the game world in her mind.
"No, if I let go, the admiral will definitely run away."
"I won't run away."
"I still won't let go, because I like holding the Admiral like that."
