Chapter 493: There are wolves in front and tigers behind
Su Xia used her remaining rationality, otherwise she would fall into despair sooner or later. She almost fled from the housekeeping activity room. It was almost five o'clock. Calculating how long she had been in the housekeeping activity room, it was more than half an hour. You know, the original plan was to just stand there and take this opportunity to look around.
After leaving the housekeeping room, Su Xia walked deeper into the corridor.
There were many children in the garrison, more than two classes in total, but most of them belonged to the home club, and not many chose to form or join clubs. As a result, most of the rooms in the long corridor of the activity room building were empty, with only a few activity rooms.
Su Xia walked for a long time. There was no one in the detective agency, the football club, the track and field club, and the wind band. It was not until she reached the end of the corridor that she found a club with people active. It was the painting club, which occupied a very large activity room, which was as big as a classroom that could seat dozens of people.
Pushing open the door of the activity room, Su Xia walked into the room and found the white-haired loli sitting in front of the easel.
She had her back to him, her white hair was divided into two strands and tied with a beautiful ribbon. She was wearing a cute skirt, and her little tail was sticking out from under the skirt and swaying. Judging from the state of the little tail, the arc of the swing was very rhythmic, and it was not drooping down, which showed that the owner was in a very good mood.
Even though she was only in back view, Su Xia still recognized who the white-haired girl was. Wasn't this the person she had just seen in the corridor outside the classroom, lying on the table and writing and drawing on the textbook?
Claxton, a member of the Fletcher-class destroyer family, received a total of 8 battle stars during World War II and was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation as a member of Destroyer Squadron 23.
Su Xia wanted to knock on the door of the activity room to remind Clarkston that he was here, but after thinking about it, she decided not to disturb Clarkston while she was painting. However, when she walked behind Clarkston, she found that she was not painting, but packing up her things. She was surprised and asked, "Clarkston is not painting anymore, are you going back?"
Consider why Clarkston is in such a good mood.
I'm packing up and getting ready to go home, so I'm in a good mood?
Clarkston was packing up her pens and putting them all away. When she heard the voice, she turned around and saw Su Xia standing beside her. She was stunned for a long time and didn't react. She blinked and said, "Ah, Admiral, why are you here... You suddenly appeared behind me and spoke to me, which scared me."
Su Xia looked at Clarkston, whose face was rosy and smiling. Whether in the game or in the real world, he liked the child very much. He smiled and said, "Admiral, did you accidentally scare Clarkston? I'm sorry. Clarkston forgives you."
"No," Claxton said.
Su Xia explained: "I apologized."
"Even an apology won't work." Claxton grabbed Su Xia's clothes. "If an apology works, what do we need the police for?"
Su Xia liked that famous quote and laughed at the time: "What does it take for Clarkston to forgive the admiral?"
"Claxton wants the Admiral to play with Claxton before he forgives the Admiral."
This is not a punishment, it is clearly a reward. Su Xia said: "There is no other way. Since Clarkston was scared, I can only play with Clarkston as compensation."
“That’s a deal,” Claxton said.
"It's settled." Su Xia said affirmatively.
"So what should we play?" Clarkson said to herself. She was thinking, what game, playing house?
"Claxton can play whatever he wants." Su Xia said, watching Claxton almost pack up his things, "But I see Claxton is packing up and preparing to go back."
Clarkston said: "It's five o'clock. I was going to go back, but now I don't want to go back."
"Why?" Su Xia asked curiously.
"Because the admiral is here." Claxton said sweetly.
"We can go back and play together." Su Xia suggested. He wondered how many Fletcher-class destroyers there were in the garrison, maybe twenty. No matter which destroyer it was, it was very cute. Especially the eldest sister, the Fletcher, as a destroyer, did not look like a destroyer at all. In contrast, someone was a battleship, but did not look like a battleship.
"No, don't play with everyone." Claxton bent down and hugged his knees and said, "Claxton wants to enjoy a world of two with the admiral."
"What kind of world for two..." Su Xia said. She had known for a long time that Clarkston was a very bold boy and was completely in love, but this was too bold.
"It's like this now, there are only two of us." Clarkston rested his head on his knees and looked at Su Xia and said, "Claxton likes the admiral, Clarkston wants to monopolize the admiral... Even if they are sisters, Clarkston doesn't want to share the admiral with them."
Su Xia stared at Claxton. The little girl blinked her big eyes. There was no charm in her eyes, only the innocence and purity of a child. He felt something was wrong.
Clarkston noticed that Su Xia was staring at her and asked, "Is there anything wrong with what Clarkston just said?"
"No problem." Su Xia was speechless. As a grown man, he didn't know how to educate a child.
"Yeah." Clarkson nodded.
"Anyway, let's play. Whatever Clarkston wants to play." Su Xia was afraid that the little girl would suddenly say something shocking - as he became an admiral for a longer time, his moral concepts were subtly changing - so that he could not control himself and looked around for a moment. This was a studio and there was nothing to play with. "Well, I suddenly want to see what Clarkston painted, is that okay?"
"Sure. I'll show the admiral the drawings that Clarkston drew." Clarkston jumped off the bench and soon found a thick album from the cabinet next to him and placed it on the table not far away. "These are all the admirals. Clarkston drew the admirals."
Su Xia pulled the album over and flipped through it. He saw that the person in the album was somewhat similar to him, but only somewhat. In other aspects, his eyes were not that big, his nose was not that straight, and his appearance was average. The guy in the album was definitely a handsome guy. He said, "Is that me you drew? Why does it look nothing like me?"
"That's the admiral," Claxton said. "Claxton's idea of an admiral."
"We don't want the admiral in Clarkston's mind, we want the real admiral." Su Xia said.
"The real admiral?" Claxton stood on tiptoe and held Su Xia's face with his small hands.
Su Xia stood still and let Clarkston hold his face and look at him carefully.
Su Xia waited for a long time and asked, "How is it, what does Clarkston think?"
Clarkston reacted, let go of Su Xia, lowered his head a little embarrassedly, and said, "I'm sorry, Admiral, Clarkston was a little stunned."
"It's okay, it's okay." Su Xia took deep breaths and tried to calm herself down. Clarkston was a child, and adults couldn't do anything to children, even if they were admirals and ship girls. So she just said something casually. "Claxton, just draw, why draw so many flowers?"
Su Xia frowned slightly as she looked at the album, not understanding why there were flowers as the background behind his portrait.
"In my heart, the Admiral will always be a beautiful flower blooming." Clarkston flipped through the picture album, "There are also sunshine, feathers, crystals, butterflies, and angel wings."
Su Xia opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Claxton, why haven't you left yet?" At this moment, a sweet voice like a silver bell rang out at the door of the activity room.
Su Xia looked towards the door of the activity room and saw a loli with ice blue hair and wearing a thin skirt standing there.
Sigsbee, a Fletcher-class destroyer, and sister of Claxton.
Historically, he received a total of eleven battle stars during his service career.
"Sigsby." Su Xia greeted.
"Admiral?" Sigsby saw Su Xia tilt her head and her eyes widened. She walked into the activity room, walked faster and faster, quickened her pace, threw herself on Su Xia, and hooked her hands around his neck. "Admiral, are you here to see Sigsby... No wonder I always felt like something was missing on the way back."
Claxton watched Sigsby put his hands over his mouth and laughed.
"Claxton, what are you laughing at?" Sigsby asked.
"Sister Sigsby seems to like the admiral," said Claxton, "as much as Claxton does."
Sigsby stole a glance at Su Xia, lowered his head, put his hands behind his back, and rubbed the ground with his heels: "No."
"I don't believe that Sister Sigsby doesn't like the Admiral." Claxton said, "Claxton thinks that if you like someone, you should say it out loud...Claxton likes the Admiral the most."
Claxton hugged Susha's arm and looked at Sigsby while holding his arm, seeming to encourage her sister.
Sigsby raised his head and looked at Su Xia, biting his lips gently with his pearly teeth, as if he was mustering up his courage. Then he reached out and hugged Su Xia's arm, saying, "Sigsby, Sigsby likes the admiral too, the most."
"Sigsby certainly doesn't like the admiral as much as Claxton does," Claxton said. "Claxton likes the admiral so much that he doesn't want to be separated from him for even a minute."
"Sigsby likes the admiral so much that he wants to have a baby with him," said Sigsby.
"Eh?" Su Xia felt a little dumbfounded after listening to Sigsby's words.
Sigsby giggled. She noticed that Su Xia was looking at her. She narrowed her left eye at him charmingly, put her arms around his arms, grabbed his palms with her small hands, and clasped her fingers in his palms. The shy Sigsby was just pretending. This was the real Sigsby——
Sigsby the Goblin.
Su Xia felt a little powerless.
