Chapter 553 It’s Late at Night
I originally thought that after suppressing Rome and Ji Ling, the road ahead would be smooth sailing. Who would have thought that it would be full of twists and turns. Now it seems to be even more difficult. Veneto, who walked slowly into the dormitory, became unhappy.
Pompey didn't seem to notice that Veneto's shoulders were drooping and she looked bored. It would be better not to disturb her at this time. The energetic girl didn't have much tact. Perhaps in her eyes, there was no such word as "difficult". She greeted excitedly, "Big sister, are you back?"
“I’m back…” Veneto tried hard to smile. As the big sister, she couldn’t show weakness in front of her younger sister.
"Where are Ji Ling and the second Roman sister?" Pompey looked into the corridor. "Didn't they come back with the first sister?"
"They...are not coming back." Veneto said, "Jingling feels it's too late and wants to go back...You know, she is no longer from Camichia, but from the Su family...Even though she lives here most of the time, she is still from the Su family. As for Roma, she feels a little sleepy and wants to go back to sleep, so she won't come."
"Really?" Pompey certainly didn't believe Veneto's words. She was sure that the two of them didn't dare to come back after being severely taught a lesson, so she asked carelessly, "How did the two of them offend the big sister? The big sister taught them a lesson so severely that they don't dare to come back now."
"They didn't provoke me, and I didn't teach them a lesson," Veneto said patiently.
"I don't believe it." Pompey said directly.
Veneto picked up a book from the coffee table and flipped through it. It seemed to be a romance novel, but it was really boring. He wondered who had put it there and threw it back, saying, "Believe it or not."
Pompey didn't have any feelings for Jiling. Anyway, no matter before or now, if that little girl dared to provoke her, she would never let her go. But that little girl seemed to only like to provoke Veneto. On the contrary, she took the initiative to provoke and bully him more often.
But as for Rome, Pompey was a supporter of Rome. The eldest sister was a little unfriendly, and only the second sister would take her out to play. Everyone watched the game happily together and said, "Well, I just want to say that if there is any problem, it must be caused by Ji Ling. The second sister is innocent."
I have to say that the second sister is sometimes really silly and doesn't have the brains to do anything.
"Yeah." Veneto did not comment. She always had the attitude of not letting her sister go even if she killed someone by mistake.
Veneto gave an answer, but it seemed like he didn't give an answer, and Pompey didn't know what to say.
The Eagle arrived late.
"Tianying is back...are you done with the cafeteria?" Su Xia saw Tianying and greeted her familiarly.
Aquila, the first ship of the Aquila-class armored aircraft carrier. It was converted from the passenger ship Roma and was designed to carry 51 carrier-based aircraft, but it was not completed until the end of the war.
There are too many cases where the game does not respect historical facts, especially the phenomenon of British praise. Even so, it is really difficult to give strength to an aircraft carrier converted from a passenger ship. The Skyhawk is not strong in the game. It only has three equipment slots to carry aircraft, and the load is also problematic. The armor is as brittle as paper, and defense depends entirely on life and mechanism. The skills look good at first glance, but in fact they are completely useless.
But in the end, strength is only temporary, cuteness is only temporary, as long as the character illustration is OK, it's fine. When the Skyhawk was first implemented, people questioned whether it could really walk in such a costume design? But according to textual research, such a costume seems to be designed to be so complicated by Italian noblewomen in order to show the superiority of living well without working. Of course, we all know the real purpose of the artist.
Now Tianying is also a famous name in the competition with his Italian cooking skills, only lagging behind a few people, and now he is a chef in the cafeteria. Since Su Xia often goes to the cafeteria, Yixian, Fuso, Colorado and many others are her reasons to go to the kitchen, so the two of them have talked and interacted a lot and are quite familiar with each other.
"Ah, the admiral is here?" Tianying put a bag on the coffee table and replied, "Yes, I just got off work... I'm in charge of the night shift in Ninghai and Pinghai today."
The cafeteria also provides midnight snacks, but there will definitely not be so many staff members.
Antonio immediately went to meet Tianying, but not for Tianying, but for the bag Tianying brought. Tianying usually works in the cafeteria, and likes them very much, always likes to bring them some snacks after get off work. Only sister Tianying is the best to everyone.
Zara curled her lips when she heard what Tianying said. Who would believe that you didn't know the news that the admiral was coming? Then she looked at the bag that Antonio opened. There were several boxes in the bag. When the boxes were opened, there were more abundant snacks than usual . They seemed to be still warm. The answer was obvious.
Since Skyhawk was usually very nice to everyone, Zara refrained from saying anything.
"Admiral, have a taste together." Tianying called Suxia, then turned to the others, "Veneto, Pompey, Scipio, Zara...Have Antonio and Alvise washed their hands? You can't eat without washing your hands...And the same goes for Ugolini."
"Avielle is here too... Have some snacks." Tianying saw the quiet Avielle, who was sitting in the corner of the sofa reading a book. "Is Jiling not here?"
"She got into trouble again, and was taught a lesson by the eldest sister along with the second sister. We don't know where she is now. She must have been hung up." Antonio interrupted. She didn't care , she only cared about the snacks. She jumped up and down at the sight of the box of snacks. There were too many snacks, which one should she eat first, tiramisu, Mantova shortbread or profiteroles? In the end, she decided on the soft profiteroles.
Tianying looked at Veneto, wanting to get an answer from the white-haired girl, but Veneto remained calm and didn't answer her question at all. Then she saw Antonio reaching out his hand to take some snacks, and gently patted the back of her hand and said, "Have you washed your hands?"
"My hands are clean." Antonio showed his palms to Tianying, and they were really clean. Then he couldn't wait to pick up the snacks.
The education of Ji Ling and Roma is a common thing, which can be seen every few days and is not worth paying attention to. Tianying did not care why the two were not there. Instead, he held his face and said, "Ji Ling and Roma are not here, so I will be Roma tonight." So Tianying was converted from the Roma passenger ship.
"Yes, yes, yes." Pompey said in a troublesome tone.
"I am also Roman, why doesn't Pompeii worship me?" Tianying said distressedly.
"It used to be Rome, and even if it was Rome, it was just a passenger ship," Pompey said, "not a battleship."
"An armored aircraft carrier is no worse than a battleship." Tianying said expectantly.
"You know the reason yourself..." Antonio and Alvise occupied one box, so Pompey had to pick up the other one.
Zara had been holding back for a long time, and finally couldn't help it anymore, saying, "The Roma was converted into a Skyhawk, and it was classified as an armored carrier completely because of a loophole. Because only the flight deck was armored, the protection of the hull was not much improved compared to the passenger ship period. Even if it was fully strengthened, it would only be more than 60... In comparison, Taiho is more than 80, and Shinano is more than 100."
What Zara means is that Tianying, you are too weak and not worthy of worship.
"Bullying." Tianying covered his face, "Zara is a bully."
"Admiral." Tianying shouted, looking aggrieved, "Zara bullied me."
"I'm just telling the truth." Zara paused, "Tianying, stop pretending."
As expected, Tianying immediately put away her aggrieved expression. She just felt it was fun. As an adult, she would not care about such a small thing. Even if she was taking advantage of the situation, she was still pretending to be a mother. It didn't matter if she was not strong. She basically had no chance to attack. She could still take care of those children and work as a cook in the cafeteria, and was loved by everyone.
Pompey had already opened the box, revealing the sliced pizza in the box, and said in surprise: " Ham and mushroom pizza... I like it."
Pompey took a piece of pizza and took a bite. The rich aroma immediately filled his mouth. He squinted his eyes happily and said, "Delicious..."
Antonio finished his puffs, sucked his fingers clean and was about to take the pizza, saying, "I want some, I want some too."
"Antonio, shouldn't you help the admiral and the sisters get pizza first?" Tianying coaxed. Before working in the cafeteria, she was mainly responsible for taking care of the children.
“Yeah.” Antonio was very sensible. Although he wanted to eat pizza right away, he helped everyone get pizza first. He had to be polite. “Admiral, eat pizza… Big Sister, eat pizza… Sister Zara, yours…”
Antonio handed Su Xia a pizza, so of course she would accept it. She accepted it, not because she hated pizza, but because she had eaten so much for dinner. If she ate more, the calories would exceed the limit, so she hesitated about what to do.
"Don't worry, Admiral, it's really delicious." Pompey looked at Su Xia holding the pizza and was reluctant to eat it.
"Admiral, don't you like pizza?" Tianying asked worriedly.
"I like it." Su Xia replied. He wanted to explain, but seeing that the girl didn't mind at all, he thought it was too pretentious for a man to worry about gaining weight from eating too much heat at night. He couldn't open his mouth.
"Don't you like the taste of ham and mushroom?" Tianying asked again.
"No problem." Su Xia took a bite of the pizza and first bit off the tip of the triangle. Tianying was able to work in the cafeteria, so her cooking skills were quite remarkable. The pizza she made tasted really good.
Tianying didn't believe Su Xia so much, and said: "If you don't like it, don't make it difficult for yourself... Tianying can make any pizza that the admiral likes."
"It's not hard on me...it tastes great." Su Xia took another bite of pizza to express her attitude with practical actions. "As for what kind of pizza I like to eat, I have never eaten any pizza...pineapple pizza?"
Pompey's hands, which had been holding the pizza in his mouth, slowly put them down and looked at Su Xia and said, "Admiral, are you provoking me? Then don't blame us for being rude."
"That's right, that's right." Alvise raised his hand and Antonio, who was so hungry that he couldn't speak, raised his hand to cheer him on.
Su Xia noticed that everyone was staring at him fiercely, and said with a smile: "I just saw on the Internet that Italians would rather die than eat pineapple pizza... Is it really that exaggerated? What's wrong with pineapple pizza? I think it looks good."
"Admiral, what do you think of dumplings stuffed with chocolate?" Zara asked back, her words sharp. For the first time, the girl's sharp tongue was recognized by everyone.
Zara's suggestion led Pompeii to stand up and shout, "A bowl of strawberry mapo tofu for the admiral."
Su Xia understood what pineapple pizza meant to Italians. "Okay, I was wrong. I surrender."
"It's good that you know you're wrong." Pompey snorted.
When everyone finished eating the pizza, there were only two small pieces left of the whole pizza brought by Tianying. Pompey was still not satisfied. As a girl, is it okay to eat so much at night? Now she needs a reason to convince her. She glanced at Su Xia and said, "There are only two pieces left. Admiral, let's each eat one, otherwise there will be some left."
"You can eat Pompeii if you want... but why do you have to involve the Admiral?" Zara said, "Andrea hasn't come yet. Even if she doesn't come, Veneto can take it back to Rome and the Empire."
Pompey, whose little trick was exposed, glared at Zara.
"By the way," Skyhawk suddenly interrupted, "Rome came and left, but the Empire didn't come?"
"Playing games." Veneto said, "She is playing games."
"Were they playing games or did the big sister not call her at all?" Ugolini asked. It was her turn when Jiling was gone, and then she realized, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."
Veneto noticed that everyone turned to her and opened her mouth: "Dang, of course I shouted..."
It was certain that they had not called the Empire. But no one dared to speak, not even Zara, so the air was somewhat quiet.
Su Xia stepped out to smooth things over and said, "Come to think of it, I remember Veneto also knows how to cook?"
“Well, that…” Aviel had seen how good Veneto’s cooking was.
Alvise clapped his hands and said, "Big Sister's cooking shines."
"How did the Admiral know that Veneto could cook?" Zara said, "Veneto's cooking skills are much better than London's."
After hearing Zara move out of London for comparison, Su Xia finally reacted.
The reason why he mentioned Veneto's cooking was that he remembered that there was a login picture in the game which was a scene of Veneto making a dish. The problem was that when Veneto made a dish, she was holding the pot and had no idea what was in it. She could only see colorful things jumping around. Aviel, who was standing next to her in an apron, had a look of panic on his face.
"Admiral, would you like to try my cooking ?" Veneto asked.
Su Xia just smiled.
"Anyway, Rome and Ji Ling like it the best," said Veneto.
"Empire." Su Xia tried to change the subject, "Ask the Empire to come over and play."
Veneto snorted and finished the last bit of pizza in his hand.
Andrea finally arrived.
The empire never came.
It's getting later and later.
