Chapter 824: Fulfilling a Wish
Qin Ge and a group of ship girls walked to the main road and headed towards the guesthouse.
"The commander seems to trust Donghuang." Musashi said with a smile as they walked on the road.
"Haha, Lord Musashi may not know that the Lord has special feelings for Donghuang, and Donghuang is also very good to the Lord. This can be considered mutually beneficial." Tiancheng replied.
"Is that so?" Musashi looked inside the school. "So you went to school here and became a commander?"
Qin Ge nodded, "Yes, in the blink of an eye, more than four years have passed, and I have been away from the academy for nearly three years. The things here are still very familiar, but things and people have changed."
"This is inevitable. In the school, apart from the teachers, some people joined the commander's fleet, and the other part was scattered in various cities. But I wonder how many of them are left after experiencing the last Siren Tide?" Veneto said.
"I don't know." Qin Ge sighed, "I suddenly want to go to the old street. Who of you wants to go?"
"Old Street? Commander, do you want to go see Mr. Wan and the others?" Richelieu asked.
“Well, the commander of Donghuang was seriously injured this time, and they must have received the news. If I don’t show up, I’m afraid the two old men will be sad.
Although we can't stay in Donghuang for long, it would be nice to go over and tell them we're safe, have a meal with them, and chat with them," Qin Ge said.
"So should we go now or later?" Tiancheng asked.
"Let's do it tomorrow. Let's count who will go today. But it's best to control the number of people. If too many people go, it will cause a commotion." Qin Ge said.
"I guess everyone will go. After all, we are going out with the commander, so it's better for the commander to make the decision." Bismarck said.
Qin Ge scratched his head and said, "That's true. Then go back and think about it before making a decision."
"Commander, don't worry too much. After all, we will still stay in Donghuang for about a month, so we have plenty of time. You can go more often. In short, you can come whenever is convenient." Zhenhai said with a smile.
"Yeah." Qin Ge nodded. "That's true. The scenery in the old street is pretty good. We can go there for a few more laps."
"Haha, after hearing what the commander said, I also became interested." Musashi said with a smile.
"Well, don't worry, you guys are indispensable."
As they chatted and laughed, they returned to the guesthouse. Belfast had already tidied Qin Ge's room. It was still in the same location and looked the same.
"Huh, I'm back again. This place is so familiar." Qin Ge stroked the back of the chair and said with a smile.
"I'm afraid this is the place that leaves the most profound memories for the master?" Belfast said with a smile.
"Yes, it all started from here. Although I didn't live in this house at first, I lived here for a long time." Qin Ge said with a smile, "I can reminisce about this time. I don't know when I can come here again next time."
"Master, if you want to come back, we can accompany you back then. Guam is not far from here, just a few days' journey. Our fleet has been formed, so it will be very easy to come back here then, right?" Belfast said.
Qin Ge smiled and shook his head, "But I think there won't be time in the future."
Just like what Song Qingge had told him before, the last Siren Tide was just an appetizer, or just a lead. The Guardian Plan had already been launched, and the strength of his fleet was developing rapidly and changing qualitatively.
There is no time to stop now, and after reaching an agreement on steel-related cooperation with Donghuang and Sakura Empire, the battles will be continuous starting from the secret room of the Northern Union.
Because there are only two ways to make people progress. One is to strengthen their own abilities, and the second is to face various challenges.
The Guardian Plan is now being implemented in its first phase, and the main purpose of this phase is to rapidly develop Qin Ge's fleet strength in order to reach a condition where it can enter the next battlefield.
The second stage is an endless series of tests, through which he will constantly accumulate his ability to be flexible and adaptable, to ensure that he will be able to lead all the ship girls to survive in the boundless sea of stars in the future.
So time will become tighter and tighter in the future, and there will be no time to date with the ship girls. As for returning to Donghuang to relive the past, that is even more of a luxury, so this time, the most important reason for staying in Donghuang for such a long time is here.
Perhaps this is the last time he comes to Donghuang, and the next time may be after the end of the world.
"Master, are you saying that everyone will keep inviting you and leave you with no time for yourself?" Belfast laughed.
"I don't think so. Even if everyone invites me, I can still make time. But I think our war will become more and more intense in the future, and by then I won't be able to make time even if I want to." Qin Ge smiled.
"Anyway, let's just put an end to all the thoughts this time and put an end to the past."
Belfast's eyes changed slightly, and she suddenly felt as if Qin Ge was hiding something from her. But what was it?
She knew almost everything that happened in the port, except for some situations and private matters of other ship girls. But what would happen next that made Qin Ge show that expression?
"Master, what are you talking about? We still have a lot of time in the future. Although things may slow us down in the future, even if it doesn't work in one year, we can still do it in two, three or even four years.
Wouldn't it be nice to come here with you again when I have time? I believe that Dean Prince of Wales is willing to stay here and wait for you to come back." Belfast said.
"Well, maybe." Qin Ge smiled, "Let's not talk about this for now, let's take a break. Yixian has prepared a welcome party in the evening."
"Good Master."
Time passed quickly, and when Qin Ge came back to his senses, it was already getting dark. With Belfast's help, he put on his commander's uniform and pinned the badges issued by the other major camps on his chest.
The location of the banquet held by Donghuang this time was not far away, it was in the auditorium inside the school. Yixian originally planned to hold it at the command center, but Qin Ge said that the location was too far away, so it would be better to hold it here.
Yixian had no choice but to agree, but it was also nice to hold it here, after all, both parties were very familiar with the place.
As the night grew darker, the celebration ceremony held by Donghuang finally began.
