Chapter 302 Greeting
Leaving the Victory's office and returning to his own office, Su Xia felt that he was still . Without the Victory's reminder, he would not know anything.
After all, I was just a social animal, a small employee of a small company. I couldn't even get a management position, and I couldn't expect to get a job. Now that I have traveled to this world, it will only take a few days for me to become an admiral.
It is understandable if you are unable to do it temporarily, but not listening, learning and practicing means there is a problem with your attitude.
This afternoon, there was still some time before dinner, and the time was too short to arrange for everyone to practice, or do anything else. It was just a little fragmented time, difficult to use. Su Xia found information about the garrison, as well as a magazine published by the KanColle headquarters, which was a reference for the admiral and KanColle.
Su Xia had just prepared what she was going to watch when she heard the voice of Victory. It turned out that she followed him.
"The Admiral is actually reading a book..."
Su Xia asked back: "Is there any problem?"
Victory replied: "Just a little surprised."
"I read books, too. I said I wanted to be an excellent admiral." Su Xia said, "I'm not pretending. In order to achieve this goal, I read in the office and at home... I also brought some information back some time ago. You helped me select those materials. Don't you remember?"
Su Xia didn't just realize the importance of hard work today. He had long recognized his shortcomings and wanted to study hard to become an excellent admiral.
"I remember." Victory asked, "What do you think, Admiral?"
Su Xia felt a little guilty, laughed dryly, and said, "I haven't finished reading it yet."
Victory laughed.
Su Xia said: "I also want to take a good look... You know, there is no time at all."
Victory laughed. She did know that her admiral had almost no free time, especially at night. She said, "Who told you to marry so many people... There are still a lot of people waiting for the ring. You can do whatever you want."
Su Xia didn't say anything. It was difficult to deal with.
"Okay. I have a rare moment of time, so I won't bother you anymore. Admiral, just read your book. When you become an excellent admiral, I can relax a little." Victory said, and after thinking for a while, he added, "Ask me if you have any questions."
Shengli did not leave. She returned to her office, made a cup of black tea for Su Xia, and sat on the sofa beside her.
Su Xia looked at the Victory placed on his desk. It was a black tea cup she bought specially. It was said to be quite expensive, but it was indeed very delicate. The curling hot steam was rising. Victory sat next to the tea table. When he was not in the office, Victory would return to her office. When he was here, it seemed that he had always been here.
Su Xia looked at the information, not trying to write it down, but at least to have an impression in his mind, and to ask Victory when he encountered something he didn't understand. Anyway, he had always been known as an unreliable admiral, so it wouldn't be surprising if he asked some childish questions now.
"Admiral."
"Um."
"It's half past six."
"So soon?" Su Xia put down the folder, stretched out her hand and tapped the notebook on his desk several times. The space bar, the computer screen lit up, and her eyes looked to the lower right corner. "Did you go to eat?"
Victory asked, "Admiral, aren't you hungry yet?"
"A little bit. Let's go." Su Xia decisively closed the information and stood up. It's not that he was tired of reading the information, not active in eating, and had a problem with his thinking. Unless there was something he couldn't leave behind, he didn't like to make others wait for him.
Walking on the path under the shade of trees on the way to the cafeteria, Su Xia said, "It seems like this is the first time I go out to eat with Victory?" In his impression, every time he went out, he was basically with L20.
Victory thought for a moment and said, "It seems so."
"After the cafeteria started operating... I think we've been eating there these past two days." Su Xia said, "Before that, where did the Victory go to eat?"
“Do it yourself.”
Su Xia was surprised and asked, "The Victory can also cook?"
"Admiral, your behavior is very rude." Victory said, "Is it worth being so surprised that I can cook?"
"Isn't the Victory British?"
"Even if it's British..." It was just the beginning, and Victory was speechless.
"No problem." Su Xia said, "Yixian can cook, and London can cook too."
Victory opened his mouth, but finally gave up and said, "London's level is that of a dark cooking master even within our British department. No one dares to eat what she cooks... I dare not say how good it is, but at least it's edible."
"Is it just edible?" Su Xia said, "Why don't you go out to eat."
"Why should we eat out?" Victory asked back, "Even though it's not as delicious as what everyone else makes... it's also fun to cook and eat by yourself."
"That's right." Su Xia said, "I like to cook by myself, but it's too troublesome. It takes half an hour to prepare the ingredients, cook the dishes and rice, and another half an hour to eat. After eating, I have to wash the dishes and pots... It's not bad to cook it occasionally, but forget it if I want to do it every day."
Victory said, "There's nothing to do anyway."
Shengli looked at Su Xia and explained, "I'm not an old man. I wake up early every morning. I can't sleep and I don't know what to do. I spend a lot of time preparing breakfast. After work, I don't know what to do. I prepare dinner by myself, and then read a book. It's almost time to go to bed."
"I didn't say anything, you said it yourself." Su Xia said, "Is this the legendary "there is no silver here, but three hundred taels of silver"? "
"Hmm..." Victory felt a bit of a headache.
Su Xia said, "How about developing some hobbies?"
“I don’t like sports.”
"If you don't like fitness, tennis, or football..." Su Xia suggested, "How about square dancing?"
"I didn't hear you clearly. Admiral, please tell me what you just said."
"I say," Su Xia said, "If you have nothing to do, you can watch TV series or something, that's also a hobby."
“I can’t see it.”
"I'm not talking about those youth idol dramas... I can understand that feeling. It seems that I never watch those youth idol dramas. Think about how wonderful other people's high school life is, but I have nothing. I just play games every day and feel that my high school life is in vain, but I can never go back." Su Xia said, "Country Love. Or that kind of... I remember watching that kind of TV series when I was a child, with hundreds of episodes, from grandfathers to grandchildren..."
"Admiral, are you really not afraid of death?" Victory said, her voice was calm, and the more so, the more worried people felt, "Even if I am just a sailing battleship, I am not someone that an ordinary person like you can bully casually."
"I was wrong." Su Xia surrendered.
The office building is not far from the cafeteria, and it is only a short walk away. When we arrived at the cafeteria, there were already many people there.
Su Xia looked around.
The four sisters in Atlanta sat together...it should be five sisters, right? I subconsciously ignored Oakland, whose style was not right.
Akagi sat in the corner, her plate piled high with all kinds of food, from fish and meat to snacks. Kaga sat across from her drinking.
The three sisters from Colorado sat together, while West Virginia was so busy playing with her phone that she seemed to have forgotten to eat, and was quickly taught a lesson.
The cute firefly is accosted by a strange green-haired older sister.
The raider was washing the dishes. Now he's washing the plates. He was clumsy and all the bowls and plates fell into the sink.
Nevada was playing with a coin while eating. The coin bounced and fell to the ground without being caught. It rolled in front of Leipzig. Leipzig picked it up and didn't seem to want to return it.
Su Xia retracted her gaze and followed Shengli to the counter to get tableware. She said, "I was worried that everyone was used to cooking for themselves or eating somewhere else. No one came to the cafeteria to eat. It seems that my worries were in vain."
Victory complained: "Admiral, what are you worried about... Yixian is in charge of management, Ninghai, Pinghai, Mutsu, Shokaku... each chef is the main attraction of each restaurant and canteen, how can anyone refuse it?"
"Who knows." Su Xia said, "Some people are used to cooking for themselves... For example, don't you always cook for yourself?"
"I'm here now, aren't I?" Shengli said. "Before there was no proper canteen, so I had to do it myself. Now that the canteen is open for business, I still do it myself. Are you looking for trouble?"
"That's right." Su Xia nodded, "Since you'll be eating in the cafeteria in the future, what are you going to do to kill time?"
Victory thought for a moment and waved her hand, "Let's talk about it later." As she spoke, she took a plate, a dish, and a pair of chopsticks from the counter, "What are you going to eat, Admiral?"
"I don't know." Su Xia said, "Let's see what we can find and take whatever we see."
The cafeteria is still in trial operation because the equipment is not yet complete. I learned from Yixian that we purchased a lot of hot pot tables with induction cookers, but they have not been delivered yet. The garrison is on the island, so it is definitely not delivered. The address filled in is the KanColle branch in a nearby city on the mainland, and we will have to go to get it when the time comes. There is no way to provide self-service hot pot and barbecue services these days.
Su Xia was not very interested in barbecue and hotpot and didn't care about them at all. He walked past several counters and all of them were delicious. He wanted to eat them all, a lion's head and a cordyceps soup... By the time he realized what he had taken, it seemed like he had taken a little too much and it was difficult to put them back.
Victory was waiting in front. She didn't have much with her. When she saw Su Xia coming over, she turned and walked towards the hall.
"Sister Victory. And the Admiral." Xiao Luo waved while sitting on the stool, "This way, this way."
The woman with orange hair in a low ponytail raised her head.
The woman with shoulder-length blonde hair turned her head.
Victory walked over and said, "You guys eat here..."
Su Xia followed, her eyes fixed on the person sitting next to Xiao Luo:
"Nelson, Rodney..."
