Chapter 370 Troubled Autumn
Because she had promised King George V in advance, Su Xia stayed in King George V's room that night.
As the sister of the Prince of Wales, King George V of England naturally had a lot of capital, and she also had the status of His Majesty. She was also a competitive person. As a result, Su Xia was inevitably in a bad mood as usual the next day.
Su Xia hurried to the office and found it unusually lively.
There are not only the Victory and the secretary ship L20 as assistants.
There are also Yubari and No. 13 who are preparing to go to the KanColle headquarters together.
The Conqueror has not yet decided to join the naval base, and has repeatedly stated that he needs a few more days of observation and must return to the dormitory at the KanColle headquarters to get some things.
Ella called specifically, hoping that Missouri, which had recently been transformed into a missile battleship, would go to the Shipgirls Headquarters. This was a new type of ship, and the Shipgirls Headquarters wanted to learn more about it. The Shipgirls Headquarters treated the garrison well, and as the superior unit of the garrison, they would naturally cooperate if they could.
The little maid counterattacked that the Prince of Wales had pushed him over to take care of him, saying that as an admiral he needed someone to take care of him. There was also a strong recommendation from the reputation. Why not the flower maid Shropshire, because she has two good sisters.
Seeing Su Xia with slightly damp hair, it was obvious that she had just taken a shower . Even so, her mental state was still not very good. Victory sighed and said, "Admiral, you are already such a big man... There are some things I can't keep telling you. But I can't not say it either, so be restrained."
It is hard to say about the Victory King George V, the British leader. Missouri did not have that concern and said, "Is George V so cruel? He is worthy of being the King of England."
Su Xia glanced at Missouri and thought, it was you who started this bad thing.
"Okay. Admiral, you're good to know." Obviously this is not the place to discuss those things, and now is not the time, Victory did not say more, "Since no one is late and everyone is here, let's get ready to set off early. Go to the KanColle headquarters."
Considering that no one is used to riding a Chinook, the Ship Girl Headquarters only wanted them to go there to inform the relevant engineering bureau, the agitation of the deep-sea ship girls, and the appearance of the new deep-sea flagship. They did not require them to arrive at a certain time, so they were not in a hurry. They went there on a yacht this time.
Compared with the flying speed of the Chinook, even if that yacht had been modified by Yubari and Indomitable without caring about the cost, its speed was much faster than that of an ordinary yacht. It took more than three times as long to reach the KanColle headquarters than to take a Chinook.
Fortunately, sailing in the vast ocean is not like driving in a city, where it is easy to crash if you are not careful . Automatic navigation is an easy problem to solve.
As a ship girl, you can get airsick, but you must not get seasick, otherwise it will be a big problem. When riding a Chinook, I was nervous and even playing with my phone was annoying, but riding a ship was a piece of cake.
Everyone can chat, play with their phones, watch TV, or play games, while enjoying the breeze on the deck. Even though the boat ride takes more time, it is a more relaxing and comfortable experience.
Ella was waiting at the dock early. When she saw the yacht docked and everyone got off the yacht, she hurried over to greet them and said, "Why didn't you take a Chinook but a yacht instead?"
Su Xia explained: "No one is used to flying, so they have to rest for a long time every day. In this case, why not go slowly and take a yacht?"
Ella looked at Su Xia. She had noticed long ago that everyone else looked normal, but he was not in a good mood. She asked, "But Admiral Su, you seem to be a little seasick? You are the admiral."
"Can't the Admiral get seasick?"
"Of course the Admiral can't get seasick." Ella said as a matter of course, thinking that now was not the time to complain, "Is it okay?"
Su Xia hesitated for a moment and said, "A little, but it doesn't have much impact. As long as everyone is fine, it doesn't matter to me as the admiral."
Ella said: "I never knew that Admiral Su cared so much about everyone."
Su Xia said shamelessly: "Of course."
Missouri followed behind Su Xia and was overjoyed when she heard his words.
Ella then looked at the Conqueror and said in surprise, "Conqueror, you're back. Are you dissatisfied with Admiral Su's garrison?"
"No." Conqueror explained, "I heard that Admiral Su was coming to the KanColle headquarters, so I came to pick up some things... But I don't plan to join him. I have to wait and see. I'll make a final decision after at least a month."
Ella hesitated to speak and finally smiled.
Then, the Conqueror returned to her dormitory at the KanColle Headquarters, and everyone followed Ella to the KanColle Headquarters' hotel. This time, they might have to stay for a few days, so no matter what the matter was, they were not in a hurry, so they first found a place to stay and put down their luggage.
On the way to the hotel, Su Xia asked Ella about the Engineering Bureau and the new deep-sea flagship. Ella said that it was difficult to explain it all at once, and the KanColle headquarters would send everyone some information and they would know when the time came.
Su Xia recalled what she had discussed with Victory before, and said, "By the way, Ella, I've thought about it... It's inconvenient to stay in a hotel every time I come here... Is there any vacant room at the KanColle headquarters?"
"Yes," Ella said. "Would you like a set?"
"We want a bigger one." Su Xia paused, "It would be best if there were several connected ones. We can buy them all and then connect them together."
"There must be empty houses. Empty houses connected together... KanColle Headquarters has built several buildings in a row in the past few years, and they are not for sale to the public. There are many vacant rooms, probably... I can't guarantee it." Ella thought for a while and said, "Let me ask. What about the villa?"
"That's even better." Su Xia said.
Su Xia now knew that the garrison had a lot of money. On the one hand, it came from the monthly allocation from the Shipgirls Headquarters. On the other hand, it came from the bonuses for defeating the deep-sea flagship so many times. On the other hand, the rewards for everyone's expeditions included money in addition to resources. However, compared to resources, money was really insignificant and did not need to be mentioned specifically.
Isn't this the psychological shadow from the struggle to buy a house? Su Xia almost subconsciously asked: "Are the houses here expensive?"
Ella said, "Are you guys in the garrison still short of money?"
“We have no shortage of money, but we have to spend it frugally.”
Aila said: "The houses here at the KanColle headquarters are built for KanColle and the admiral to live in... It's impossible to be free, but we won't make money from you, it's very cheap."
"Is there a discount if you buy more?" Su Xia asked, thinking that she should bring Santi over?
Ella said, "I've already said I won't make any money from you. You can't let us lose money either."
"All right."
As they were talking, they arrived in front of the hotel. Su Xia remembered that the two times he stayed here before, it was quite quiet, but today there were quite a lot of admirals.
When he looked at them, they looked at him, and then looked away.
