Li Ran put the cookies in the oven, set the time, he yawned, he didn't sleep all night, and now he feels sleepy.

After all, he spent the whole night sorting out the information that Leipzig and Emden had told Yat-sen before they set off for reinforcements on Island A.

He marked several coordinates on the chart, but they were all suspicious targets.

The deep sea that attacked this time also seemed to come out of the unknown sea, but he had met with Pachina before, and she told him that she was able to meet Li Ran with the help of Shenhai, that is to say, I am afraid that the deep sea that attacked the port area this time is not the same as the previous batch of deep seas.

Li Ran took off his apron and felt that he seemed to have turned to a very critical clue.

It's just that there is too little information now.

Without much information from Hou Xun, it was difficult for him to be sure whether the deep sea that attacked their location this time came from the unknown sea in the east.

"It's annoying. ”

Li Ran couldn't figure it out, so he could only comfort himself in his heart, maybe this time the deep sea just wanted to attack his own port area.

After all, Lexington said that action in the deep sea is rarely routinely feasible.

However, it was because there was no regularity that Li Ran was so concerned about last night's attack.

Last night's incident, if you look at it in context, the deep sea side obviously has a strategy.

This is Li Ran's intuition as a soldier, and the subsequent development also confirms Heze.

Why was Li Ran so sure that the attack in the deep sea was premeditated?

In fact, it's very simple, he sorted out last night after he received Bismarck's request for help, there are only a few dispatchable ships left in his port area, Leipzig and Emden are the last guarantee of the port area, and the two of them are the eyes of the port area.

Li Ran was in that situation at that time, he didn't calm down, Bismarck's first call for help, he couldn't calm down, so he immediately let Leipzig and Emden also attack.

And after Leipzig and Emden left Twilight Island, he was almost caught behind by the deep sea that had been raided last night, and if Helena hadn't returned to Hong Kong, he would have been in danger.

If it was just a coincidence of time, he wouldn't have cared, the point is that the information Yat-sen got from Leipzig and Emden was that when they were attacked, the other party did not look like an ordinary deep sea, and even they suspected that the attack on them was probably the shipwrewn of other townsmen.

It's just that this is too ridiculous, not to mention the geographical location of Xiguang Island, after the nearby thundering town guards, and the other party's shipwreck is obviously Li Ran's shipwives have met, even if it is night, it is impossible not to recognize it.

Therefore, after rejecting the Thundering Town Guard, the problem returned to square one.

Li Ran scratched his head, he could only be sure of one thing now, that is, last night's attack used the strategy of frontal attack and surprise attack from behind.

It is certain that whether Helena wins or Bismarck reports that there is no danger, this crisis can be considered resolved.

However, being targeted like this at this time, Li Ran couldn't feel better.

The assassination more than a month ago had already caused him to brush shoulders with the dangerous Grim Reaper, and this time the problem was even more serious, no matter who the enemy was, it was clear that the purpose was not only against himself, but more like an attempt on Twilight Island.

Of course, all this is Li Ran's own speculation, and conspiracy theories are necessary at such a time.

He had already agreed with the seven governors that the plan for the great navigation of the unknown seas would probably be carried out at the beginning of the year.

Li Ran could only speculate about this last night, he felt a little pain in his head, and it was not very comfortable to stay all night.

"Ding......

A chime came from the oven, pulling him back to reality, and he listened to the laughter of Helena, Lin Xian, and Galatia outside, and could only put these speculations aside for a while.

Taking the cookies out of the oven, he took them out of the kitchen with his insulated hands, his face calm again.

"Long wait, this is the cookie I tried to make, I hope you enjoy it. ”

Li Ran smiled, then sat down beside Helena, and said to Lin Xian and Galatia:

"You're welcome, taste it. ”

Galatea looked at the cookies in all shapes, her eyes sparkling, and then she gave her sister a pitiful look.

"Since the seniors said so, then we're welcome. Lin Xian was a little funny, but she had chatted with Helena just now, and she also knew that Li Ran's personality didn't like guests to be too polite, and she was actually looking forward to whether Li Ran's craftsmanship was as good as Helena said.

When Galatea saw her sister say this, she put down the teacup in her hand and couldn't wait to pick up a bear cookie.

It's a little hot to start, but the ship girls are not afraid of these, she looked at the brown color of this cookie, and was a little curious:

"Senior, what does this taste like?"

"Well, licorice-flavored, these days fireflies sometimes come back from Mishima, and often bring some ingredients bought from those maritime merchants, I heard that these licorice were brought from the maritime merchants in the Far East, and I don't know if it suits your taste. ”

"Hmm......" Galatea nodded and then put the cookie into her mouth with a little trepidation, and found that the taste was surprisingly good, the faint licorice flavor hit the taste buds, and then the sweetness mixed with the licorice flavor, mixed with the heat just baked, she couldn't help but praise:

"It's delicious, it's delicious. ”

Lin Xian knew her second sister's preferences, she liked to eat dim sum very much, and she couldn't say that there were not many delicious dim sum, so she picked up a small piece of cookie suspiciously, the color was pale yellow, exuding the aroma of hot custard, she took a very ladylike bite, and then her eyes lit up.

The faint smell of eggs and milk was mixed with the smell of milk, making people feel as if they were in a sea of milk and eggs, she quickly ate the rest of the 7, and then looked at Li Ran with an inquiring look, she hurriedly said:

"It's delicious, I like it very much, I didn't expect Senior Li's craftsmanship to be so good. ”

"That's good, yawn......" Li Ran breathed a sigh of relief, sleepiness suddenly came up, and he couldn't help but yawn.

Helena knew that her admiral was an ordinary human, and she would definitely be tired if she didn't sleep all night, after all, humans were not like ship girls, so she hurriedly persuaded:

"Admiral, why don't you go up and rest first, and leave the affairs of the port area to us first. ”

"How can this be done, Lin Xian, they just came here......" Li Ran was about to continue, but he looked at Lin Xian and Galatea, and he was stunned.

Then I heard Lin Xian say seriously:

"Senior Helena is right, if Senior Li feels tired, go and rest first, don't care about us. ”

"Alright then, Helena, at noon, you let Lexington cook, I'll go to sleep, and call me at three or four o'clock in the afternoon." ”

Li Ran saw that they were so understanding, so he had to nod, he was really sleepy now.

Seeing Li Ran leave the living room and walk to the back of the second floor, Helena withdrew her gaze, and then looked at Galatea with an ambiguous expression, her cheeks were slightly red:

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Galatea picked up another cookie, put it in her mouth contentedly, and said:

"Helena's predecessor's admiral is a very gentle person, no wonder the senior showed such a gentle expression, which surprised me. ”

"Gentle?" Helena was stunned, the first time she had said that.

Helena is actually quite strict, as the head of the Ministry of Intelligence, she is sometimes very serious about the teaching of intelligence courses, and destroyers respect her.

"Well, Senior Helena is actually very gentle, otherwise, Senior Li wouldn't have made such a heartfelt snack, I can feel it, from these cookies. Galatea, a dim sum lover, winked mischievously.

Helena was stunned, was her mind in the cookie?

She curiously picked up a cookie, and then gently put it in her mouth, the sweet and crispy taste made her feel as if the fatigue of the battle had been relieved a lot, and she did feel that there seemed to be something strange added to the small cookie.

It's a feeling, like Galatea said, the Admiral's mind.

Does the Admiral care about me?

A smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of Helena's mouth.

When Lin Xian saw this scene, she was a little envious of Li Ranlai, who was able to make Helena's predecessor show such an expression, Senior Li, are you such a person?
