Journey with the Ship Girl

The reason everyone gathered here seems to be because a certain commander... died?

Is this commander so good?

Ye Luo was puzzled, but didn't make a sound.

The girls walking on the sea are getting closer and closer, until ordinary people like Ye Luo can see their appearance clearly.Under the vast sky and above the boundless sea, only they stepped on the waves silently, and the lonely long cry of seagulls occasionally crossed the sky.

On each of their arms, either left or right, there is a circle of eye-catching black yarn.

Leading the way are two ship girls, one with pink mid-length hair and a mid-top figure, with complex brilliance in her lake green eyes; the other with long black hair fluttering to her waist, tall and plump, with a gentle and soft temperament .

Moreover, she was not as complicated as the pink-haired ship girl, she was always smiling gently.

Dorset County came over and said in a low voice: "The pink-haired one is the head of our ship's mother's headquarters, Ms. Houston; next to it is the secretary ship Kaohsiung in the Wujia port area, and it is also Commander Wu's initial ship and marriage ship. The previous paragraph It's almost time to hear the news, what a pity, the lifespan of human beings is still too short..."

Ayanami glared at her veiledly, and wrinkled her nose in annoyance.

Still because of the height problem, if you want to whisper something, you have to stand on tiptoe to stick it up. Just a little shy, I was preempted.

Dorset County didn't notice, and still introduced in a low voice: "Commander Wu became a commander when he was 19 years old, and built the golden heavy cruiser Kaohsiung. At that time, everyone thought he would guard a certain sea area to do After making a big career, I never thought that he would take the girl back to his hometown, and stay in the J district, which was first stabilized, for 60 years..."

Dorsetshire said: "The result is now, from the young boy to the old man... There is a limit to human lifespan after all..."

Ye Luo also saw the Kaohsiung number clearly at this time. She was wearing a well-fitting cheongsam, with a little makeup on, holding a black square box in her hand; Ye Luo paid attention to her right hand, with a watch on her ring finger It looked like an ordinary ring, silver and white in color, unremarkable.

She is clearly a classical beauty with a beautiful appearance, full of charm in every frown and smile. Ye Luo doesn't know why, but she always feels...she seems to be old.

Tooth loss is old, skin wrinkled is old, hair is full of white hair is old; working for many years until retirement is old, thinking about children and grandchildren is old, and there is a suicide note under the pillow all the time.

And this Kaohsiung ship is getting old.

When it was built by the commander, it was youthful and beautiful, and was born in the world as a mature big sister; joined the port area, became a secretary ship, and became a marriage ship through years of contact; The sea area of ​​the old people lived in a mediocre way, until now, time has passed, and there are sixty years.

So she was old, and she was old with her commander.

Ye Luo was still listening, but Dorset stopped talking.Turning her head to look, the brown-haired girl's face was full of sighs, but she didn't say anything.

Ye Luo was a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "It's over? Commander Wu, is there nothing else?"

Dorset County froze for a moment, then asked, "What do you want to hear?"

"..."

Unspeakable emotions surged up suddenly, Ye Luo didn't know how to describe it, and gestured with one hand and said: "I thought it would be more... grandiose, such as the attack of the deep sea ship girl, who saved the entire city, her name is printed on the What a big pennant; or for so many years of unswervingly supporting the headquarters of Jianniang, so he was assassinated several times, fighting wits and courage with others..."

It was obviously a serious atmosphere, but Dorset could hardly help laughing, and said in a low voice: "Who has such a wonderful life? Even the commander will hardly encounter a deep-sea ship girl directly approaching the city The situation, let alone our elderly care zone.

Support is to support the headquarters of the ship mother, but which commander does not support it?As for the assassination, who would dare to go to the port area to assassinate a commander.

Moreover, Commander Wu is notoriously stubborn. He has been reckless all his life, so how can he fight wits and courage with others...just an ordinary commander. "

Ye Luo was a little confused.

That is to say, this stubborn donkey Commander Wu is just an ordinary commander, guarding the sea area in an ordinary way, and disappearing in the sea of ​​people in an ordinary way. Ordinary commander?

So many ship girls wanted to come and see off this commander, Ye Luo originally thought he was some kind of hero, or someone who lived a magnificent life and had a great influence on the ship girls.As a result, even the second-in-command of the ship's mother's headquarters commented that there was nothing other than the word "ordinary".

But why?

The brown-haired ship girl really stopped talking this time, and motioned Ye Luo to look at the sea.

At sea, Houston looked at Kaohsiung with a complicated face. 60 years had not brought any changes to this black-haired beauty, and she was still so gentle and beautiful; but Houston knew very well that she was really really old. Too old to want to move anymore, too old to no longer miss this world, too old...

Don't want to live anymore.

Kaohsiung carefully held the black box in his arms, took out two small square boxes and an envelope, handed them to Houston, and said gently: "The commander has passed away. According to his instructions, everything in the Wujia port area All will be confiscated, and the sisters will find their own way out. This is the SG communicator and suicide note bound to the commander's account, please check it."

Houston took the things and didn't speak.

Kaohsiung also said: "You can have a new commander transferred over some other day. Presumably there is already a candidate. It's just that the commander made a request before he died. He asked you to donate half of the property in the port area to the inland orphans in his name." Courtyard, the only requirement is to let a child change his surname to Wu, which can be regarded as being passed down in this world."

"Then let it go."

Kaohsiung tightly hugged the black box in his hand, with an indescribable happiness on his face.

Turning around, facing the sea, Kaohsiung did not face the sisters in his own port area.What should be said has already been said, the commander has passed away, and there will be no more Wujia port in the world, and they will go to the end of the world from now on.

Houston took the thing in his hand and nodded, which was considered to have granted the little guy's wish.

Ye Luo watched Kaohsiung hand over the things to Houston, and saw her holding the box and facing the sea, with her back to the headquarters of the ship's mother. The sailing feet under her feet drew two thin ripples and moved forward slowly.

Ye Luo was still wondering what she was doing, but after walking out of Kaohsiung for a while, her pupils suddenly constricted.

As the sun sets, the sea breeze blows across the sea, and the sun and the sea level kiss gently.The tide came up, slapping the wharf of the ship's mother's headquarters in vain.The ship's mother, who had been indifferent to the [-]-meter-high waves, was slowly getting shorter and disappearing.

Sailing feet, ankles, calves, knees...

"Hey, hey hey hey..."

Ye Luo muttered to himself, and subconsciously clenched the little hand in his hand. Now he understood why Ayanami took his arm. It was not to express intimacy, but to prevent him from falling and falling into the sea.

Overwhelmed by dizziness, Ye Luo subconsciously leaned against Lingbo's petite body, and patted her forehead again, to make sure she was not mistaken.

The heavy cruiser Kaohsiung, holding the black box, sank.

Some deep voices from Dorset County sounded, faint and leisurely.

"I can't believe it? Why can't I believe it? You asked me just now what makes this Commander Wu different from ordinary people. I can only answer you this way: He is very ordinary. This is what stands out in his file. "
