Journey with the Ship Girl

"Moreover, compared to before, many new ship girls have joined the port area. You will get to know each other slowly in the future, and don't be intimidated by unfamiliar faces."

"Don't underestimate us, Commander, we won't be frightened by strangers anyway."

Xinxin didn't take it seriously, and followed Ye Luo all the way to the outside of the dormitory, when she suddenly realized something was wrong: "Hey, is the commander going into the dormitory with us?"

"Borrow a room for you to take a bath and change clothes. You don't have to let me follow you. You can ask whoever you want."

"No, what I mean is, did the commander live with everyone?"

Ye Luo stared: "Otherwise, where should I sleep at night?"

"In the office?" said enthusiastically, "the commander spends 25 hours in the office every day."

Acasta said weakly: "Idiot and enthusiastic, the commander used to sit in the office for a long time, so that he can sleep in the dormitory now."

En Xin was a little puzzled: "Why? You could sleep in a dormitory before, and you should have lived with everyone long ago."

"Hmph, I guess now the commander can choose a room to sleep in every night..."

Ye Luo knocked on the heads of the two of them gently: "Talk too much."

There were not many girls still in the dormitory at this time, and Cleveland happened to be going downstairs, so Acasta and Enthusiasm ran to Cleveland's room to clean the bathroom.

Ye Luo went back to the room, sat on a chair and turned out a roster, compared them carefully one by one with his fingers, then found the names of Acasta and Zexin, and crossed them out with a pen.

Many names have been crossed out in the booklet, and many names have not been crossed out.

Come on, cross it out bit by bit, everyone will come back one day.

Closing the booklet, Ye Luo thought a little flatteredly, today Xiaoying suddenly found two ship girls, the God of Reaper, Sand Sculpture No. [-], and Sand Sculpture No. Can we all come back?

Of course, when I think about it, I know I am thinking of peaches.

Acasta and Enthusiastic soon settled down in the port area, and everyone helped them tidy up the room with ease, and settled down.There are now two more ship girls in the port area. It seems that there are no more, but they all seem to be the same number anyway.

Unsurprisingly, the "pets bring people, the Belt and Road Initiative" that Ye Luo was looking forward to did not move. One week passed, two weeks passed, and the few sand sculptures could not even see their shadows except when they were playing together happily. arrive.

However, on this day in early September, a piece of news came back.

Chapter 10 Stress and Faith

On this morning at the beginning of September, Ye Luo was sitting in the office flipping through a large stack of documents, and from time to time correcting and marking some places, his face was serious and thoughtful, and he rarely had a serious working attitude—— —Unfortunately those are not working papers, but novels.

Ayanami was sitting next to her, spreading out a squatting small desk calendar on the table. The August part had been turned to the last page, and the September part was blank. Ayanami was writing on it with a pen.

There is a blank grid next to each date, and Ayanami writes the events scheduled to be done this month in the narrow grid:

On September 9rd, the academy starts, the commander wants to go to the academy to watch the new students build

On September 9th, report the battle situation of the previous month to the Lighthouse City Ship Girl Branch, including radar records, sinking records and consumption records (※)

On September 9th, the commander stationed in the shadow anchor port area of ​​Senyi City is expected to come to visit

On September 9th, the frontline guards will change, and it is expected that many free ship girls will withdraw to Beacon City

……

The work in the lighthouse port area is not considered busy, but as one of the most important port areas in the entire C area, it is definitely impossible to relax.

In fact, almost every day, rich businessmen, politicians, presidents, or other big figures from the outside world hand over invitation letters, inviting Ye Luo to attend various gatherings and dinners whose names he has never even heard of.Most of these invitations will be screened out in the shipgirl headquarters, and another part will be screened out in the shipgirl branch in Lighthouse City. In the end, only the ones that can’t be evaded or are of great importance will be placed on Ye Luo’s desk. , and then select the ones that look pleasing to the eye, usually one or two times every two or three months.

There are a lot of external work, and the secretary ship is generally unable to help, and it usually makes people physically and mentally exhausted.Things in the port area are all trivial matters. Even if there are occasional disputes, the ship girl in the port area is quite happy to let the commander make up her mind.

As for the management and operation of the port area, the commander's responsibilities are both internal and external.

Although he has always regarded himself as a salty fish, Ye Luo's work is more than that of ordinary commanders.

Putting down the pen, Ye Luo stood up a whole stack of document papers and paused on the table, smoothing out the uneven parts, and soon let out a sigh of relief: the manuscript of the second volume was finally completed.

The movement on the desk was soon discovered by several other ship girls, and Hood first showed a look of interest: "Finished?"

"It's finished, in fact it was finished a few days ago, and it will take a long time to revise and polish it later." Ye Luo picked up a clip and clamped it in the upper left corner of the document paper, "I'll take it and print it later, Do you want to see it?"

"I am looking forward."

"Actually, I'm not very satisfied. The part near the end of this book is a bit unsatisfactory. It may be because of my personal reasons." Ye Luo simply took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on a chair, and leaned against his soft back. "I used to write things smoothly when I was taking a break from the busy schedule. Since the publication, I turned my hobby into a job, thinking about it when I have nothing to do all day, but I don't feel very good at it."

Several other ship girls looked over immediately, and Tiancheng showed a concerned look: "Is it too much pressure recently?"

Tirpitz said: "This guy eats, sleeps, and eats every day. Where is the pressure? Oh, it must be the pressure from the urging party. Understood, let's go to Bismarck to single out. No, deceive her Come to the port area to single out."

"What nonsense, how could Bismarck be so easy to be fooled?" Enterprise glanced at Tirpitz, and she felt Ye Luo's pressure almost instantly, "I haven't heard you say it before, is it because Acasta and Enthusiasm? They came back after reading the commander's novel, so they put pressure on you?"

Ye Luo didn't say a word, she sat cross-legged on the chair and swayed back and forth. When Lingbo turned her head, her eyes became straight.

"Uh, the commander's pants are not zipped."

"I did it on purpose. I seem to have a little belly lately. It's comfortable to stretch it out."

Ye Luohun didn't care. I heard that the boyfriend and girlfriend when they first dated would pay great attention to maintaining their image. After two weeks, they squatted together with disheveled faces and made noodles without even washing their faces.Although he has never been in a relationship before, the same reasoning is probably the same when he is with a married couple: they are all mature, so what does it matter if they show their belly.

As he said that, Ye Luo folded his hands behind his head and said in distress: "I've been under a little pressure recently. I used to feel full of confidence. I must become a world-famous great writer--it's a bit mysterious now that I think about it. Is it okay, just my broken level?"

In the past, my evaluation of myself was that I was intermittently complacent, and I often ate and waited to die.It's better now, but occasionally I feel inexplicable inferiority complex and irritability, feeling worthless and out of place in the world.

This is human nature, we all have such a time.

There should be, right?
