Sase guards the palace.

‘The deep-sea ships that appeared along the Sase coast have been cleared, and it is now being confirmed in which direction these deep-sea ships entered the Sase Inland Sea.’

‘The last time I found a deep-sea ship nearby was still thirty years ago poi.’

‘Where is the cute little destroyer? Come out quickly…before the night is not over!’

‘Kawanai, Xili, please look carefully. This is a near-land waters, and no deep-sea vessel can be missed.’

The reason why deep-sea destroyers appeared in groups near Sase yesterday was that all the ship girls in the Sase Guardian are currently in extremely busy patrol work.

As the admiral of the Sase garrison, Lu Ji was of course busy from last night until six o'clock this morning.

"It's sunrise."

Lu Ji stood on the command ship and looked at the sun rising from the distance, picked up the hot coffee in her hand and took a sip.

"Admiral, have you... used to drinking this bitter coffee recently?"

Nagato's sister Muro was the admiral's escort this time, while Nagato personally went to the waters where deep-sea destroyers were invaded to command the battle.

"Well...after all... I'm old." Lu Ji sighed in a low voice and said something that would make every girl repel.

"I don't think there is any change. Admiral you now look no different from when you were seventeen."

Mua leaned against the side of the ship and looked at Lu Ji. In terms of appearance, Lu Ji has really not changed much in the past fifteen years.

The ship girl’s concept of time may be a little different from that of humans. For the ship girl who has a terrible life, fifteen years is no different from yesterday.

Of course... the ship girls still care about their age, and still follow the standards of human beings. However, the growth in the mind is indeed much slower than human beings.

"This is a blessing for my brother, but sometimes I always feel like an old lady."

In the spiritual growth, Lu Ji is not like a ship girl. Recently, she feels more and more that her way of thinking is a bit like a menopause woman. Well... Lu Ji seems to be approaching such a sad age as menopause.

Before Lu Ji could sigh for how long, a report from a destroyer girl came from the soul network.

‘Admiral, discover a new aircraft carrier girl poi.’

‘I haven’t seen the aircraft carrier girl? Has she lost her way?’

All the patrol teams where Xili is located are composed of the first batch of ship girls from Sase. With their experience, they should have long been familiar with all the ship girls in the world.

Even Xili didn't know the aircraft carrier girl, it should be a super rare ship.

‘There is no lost poi, but… there is a ship girl next to her, and Xili knows her poi.’

'who?'

‘Luya poi!’

Why... Luya appears in this sea area at this time? I feel the reason why there is deep sea resentment nearby?

‘Xi Li, have you greeted them?’

Lu Ji could already guess that the aircraft carrier girl who was following Lu Ya was Lu Ya's secretary-general, the USS Zeppelin.

‘No, we just saw their figures in a long distance, and we found them to the north.’

‘I understand, Xili, please continue patrolling.’

Lu Ji did not choose to let Xili go up and contact Lu Ya. Although many ship girls in Sase knew Lu Ya, Lu Ya did not know Sase's ship girls at all. Perhaps in Lu Ya's eyes, Sase's ship girls were just big sisters who often came to her house for free.

‘Admiral…’

Kaga's cold voice entered Lu Hime's soul network at this time.

‘Well, I know Kaga, just as my brother expected last night, Sure enough, Xiaoluya likes her father very much.’

Lu Ji recalled the words that the admiral said when he left her office last night, "As a teacher, I need to take a few days off these days... No, it should have disappeared for a while. Lu Ya should have found a way to come to me. Lu Ji, as the chairman, you will never favor Lu Ya because she is your niece, right?"

To be honest, Lu Ji really wants to favor Lu Ya. As Lu Ya's aunt, although Lu Ji and Lu Ya don't have many opportunities to get along with each other, she still likes this niece very much.

but……

The place where my brother went was too dangerous, for Lu Ya's safety.

‘It’s time to go to school now, Kaga… I’m sorry.’

'I see.'

Kaga, who was in search of the other sea area, retracted the reconnaissance planes falling from the sky.

"Kaga, is it really okay to be in physical condition? You should stay in the custody's house by listening to the admiral."

“It’s just a patrol mission.”

As the flagship of the fleet, Kaga began to sail in the direction where Zeppelin appeared.

"That's not to worry about Luya."

Ruizu, another aircraft carrier girl in the fleet, expressed Kaga's true thoughts.

"After so many years, you still haven't learned how to perform tasks seriously."

"What?! Yihang fights! Don't think that I will give in to you when you are pregnant!"

Looking at this daily scene, Akagi and Shohi, who were following Ruihe, covered their mouths with their hands and chuckled.

……………………

In the end...is this still the case?

Zeppelin closed the compass in his hand, confirmed the route of sailing, and then turned to look at Lu Ya who was following him.

There is no airport in Sase City. The nearest airport to Sase is in another city, Omura City. It takes at least one day to take a bus to Omura City.

Luya certainly didn't have the patience to go on a long-distance trip. Her plan was to arrive in Germany first with her father and then find Vollana.

For this reason, the Renci generously prepared a special air ticket for Lu Ya, a private air ticket. The air ticket looked like a child's toy and was covered with a cat's claw seal.

To take this flight, Zeppelin must go to a private airport near Sase.

Are private jets really capable of spanning the entire Asian sector? Zeppelin is deeply suspicious of human technology.

But Germany is too far from Japan, it is just on the other side of the world. If you sail by the sea, it will take at least a week to arrive.

The admiral's words... I only need to go back to the deep sea guarding palace. After all, Sukihi in the middle has invented such unreasonable things as a serene gate.

“Admiral…”

During the voyage, Zeppelin held Luya's hand and tried to avoid the Sase girl patrolling around. The Sase girl did not come up to ask Luya and Zeppelin for their intentions.
