Chapter 8

He has seen many different shipgirls these days. Although they have different personalities, they all look innocent and naive.

But when this pair of eyes looked at him, Wang Yu felt that this pair of eyes had a hint of inexplicable meaning, full of worry and confusion.

The Essex class is also called the Dumpling class. Compared with other aircraft carriers that only have a few sister ships, the Essex class aircraft carrier has 24 ships of the same type. It became the mainstay of the White Eagle Navy in the Pacific War. Everyone joked that the Essex class was launched as fast as dumplings, which is the origin of the nickname of the Dumpling class.

In the game, Shangri-La is also called Xiangjiao. He still has a deep impression of her. After all, it is a gold-skinned aircraft carrier, so it still has some appearance. Soon he overlapped the image of Shangri-La in the game with the image of the girl in front of him.

But in his impression, Shangri-La does not seem to be a sentimental girl. What happened to that look just now? Was he dazzled?

"Do you like the sea?"

Shangri-La finished introducing herself. Without waiting for Wang Yu to respond, she asked again.

Her voice was clear and mellow, flowing through his heart like a clear spring stream. Although the voice was not loud, it could be clearly heard by his ears.

Wang Yu had seen Bumblebee and Essex at the headquarters before, but this was the first time he saw Shangri-La.

You asked me if I like the sea? Yes, of course. The sea here is as blue as the sky. Even if I didn't like it before, I must like it now. Wang Yu looked up at the horizon, and the sun slowly fell from the horizon. It was almost dark, the lively beach had become quiet, and the waves gradually subsided.

The sound of the waves was almost inaudible in his ears, and at this time, the wind became gentle. If you don't smell it carefully, you can't even smell the unique salty smell of the sea water. From a distance, the sea water is like black jade, slowly receding. Unconsciously, his feet are on the beach again.

Wang Yu just doesn't understand why Shangri-La suddenly asked him this question. Shouldn't I ask what I think of the headquarters? What I plan to do in the future, etc. But he still answered quickly.

"Of course I like it. No one who has seen the sea will dislike it."

Shangri-La is a very serious character in the game, compared with the other Essex-class ships in the game. It's normal.

She will help the commander to record various events, and like to share various stories with the commander. She will remind the former commander to pay attention to rest and take care of his body. In short, she is a good candidate as a secretary ship. She is also an insect collector and archaeology enthusiast.

On the contrary, her other sisters are different. As the first ship of the Essex class, Essex has very serious lines. She is a junior who strives to surpass her predecessors, but the villain in the game is too silly, and the serious character completely collapses.

The villain of Fearless is also silly. Wang Yu once put her on the stage of Jin Kara to sing a song, and then the feeling of watching Fearless is different.

Bunker Hill's personality is too cold, and she is the type who is ruthless and doesn't talk much. Wang Yu only paid a little attention to her when he got it, because he didn't like the character painting very much, so he didn't know much about her.

So Wang Yu felt that he had to be steady first, and he had to answer other people's questions normally first, and he couldn't be too jumpy.

Shangri-La didn't respond, as if it didn't matter how Wang Yu answered her.

Neither of them spoke again.

Wang Yu felt that this Shangri-La seemed a little cold. It was a little different from the impression in the game, but there are hundreds of people, and it's not surprising that the same ship girl has different personalities. Seeing that Shangri-La didn't mean to talk, he silently admired the sunset with her.

Soon, the sun fell into the sea. The sky darkened, and the lights around gradually lit up.

After a while, Shangri-La recalled the wandering carrier-based aircraft, and watched the carrier-based aircraft fly back to Shangri-La's ship suit and disappear. Wang Yu couldn't help but silently complain in his heart, did you come out to fly the plane? It looked like he was walking an energetic dog at home.

As if noticing Wang Yu's eyes, Shangri-La smiled slightly: "I will come to take a good look at the sea after a while. Now I don't have many opportunities to go to sea, so I can only rely on these little guys to help me take a good look."

Not many opportunities to go to sea? Wang Yu had some understanding. Was it because of his high status in the headquarters? So there were almost no opportunities to attack, and only the daily work of command was left.

After quickly passing a guess in his mind, he quietly listened to Shangri-La continue to talk.

But Shangri-La didn't say anything else: "You shouldn't have eaten yet? Let's go have a meal together."

Sudden invitationPlease let Wang Yu be stunned, and habitually wanted to refuse directly. He didn't have the habit of eating with strangers. Even if this was a girl who looked quite beautiful, well, maybe because she was too beautiful, Wang Yu felt even more uncomfortable.

Obviously, as strangers, they could communicate normally as characters in the game, but if they were to eat together like friends, or get to know each other more deeply, he felt panic instead.

It seems that he has not yet completely gotten used to this world. Everything before was probably just his pretending to be calm.

"Gurgle."

Just at the right time, the sound of the stomach sounded. Although the sound was not loud, the beach was particularly quiet at this time. Now thinking about it, I don't know if it was because of the late sky. Or because of Shangri-La's arrival, the other people on the beach seemed to have left for a long time.

In addition, maybe the hearing of the ship girl is good, Shangri-La obviously heard the sound of Wang Yu's stomach.

"Let's go eat together. It's not good for your health to be hungry. As a commander, you should care about your health. This is also responsible for your own port." Shangri-La's voice was soft and gentle, and it sounded like she was talking to an old friend. The caring words were so natural.

Wang Yu certainly didn't think it was because she was talking to him. He was not so narcissistic. It was more like a habit. Could it be that she often said such things before? So she was used to such a tone. Wang Yu suddenly realized something and thought about it.

Since the words have come to this point. Wang Yu could no longer say no. So he followed Shangri-La to the place where he was eating.

Before, someone had always brought him food. This was his first time to eat. It was rare for someone to lead the way, and he was also happy to familiarize himself with the environment. Soon he came to a place similar to a large cafeteria.

Perhaps because it was late, only a few scattered people were eating. It felt like getting food in the cafeteria in the previous life. After they got the food, they found a place where no one was sitting down.

Wang Yu tasted the food and felt that it tasted not bad. Besides, he was already hungry, so he didn't care about being a gentleman. He ate quickly. People live to eat. If there is anything else, it must be to make the food taste better. Now there is another purpose of living.

Wang Yu originally thought that Shangri-La would have some other questions. He was ready to fool her. Oh, it was an honest answer about the glorious record as a commander before. But he didn't expect Shangri-La to ask other questions. Instead, he asked him how he got along with York.

Speaking of York, Wang Yu also felt confused. If his guess was right, this should be the territory of the White Eagle. Why is there a royal ship girl? If you don't understand, just ask. He directly asked Shangri-La about his confusion.

Shangri-La didn't mean to hide anything. As she told him, Wang Yu gradually understood what was going on. York was salvaged after defeating the Siren in a mission about two years ago, and has been living in the headquarters since then. As a new ship girl, she is not strong enough and has no chance to attack. There are not many commanders who can come to the headquarters, and she has never thought of looking for a commander, so she has been staying in the headquarters.

Wang Yu was thoughtful, and he solved a puzzle he had been confused about.

Back to his residence, Wang Yu recalled today's experience and the conversation with Shangri-La. The melancholy eyes when they first met kept appearing...

It seems that there are still some things I don't understand. I always feel that Shangri-La is hesitant to speak, which may be the key to my current situation...
