Li Ran found that Nuremberg suddenly stopped talking, and he was a little puzzled:

"Done?"

"Nope. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"Oh, I'm thirsty, Pinghai, make a pot of tea. ”

"Oh. Pinghai pouted, but still obediently went to make tea.

Nuremberg seemed a little hesitant, she thought for a moment and said:

"At that time, when I talked to Beizhai about this escort commission, she had already told me that she planned to return to Beihai, but at that time I thought she would wait a little longer, but the day before we left for the mission, she left a letter and left. ”

"Oh, no wonder Sister Nuremberg said that Sister Tirpitz was in the room and wouldn't let us bother. Z24 remembered that she had gone to say goodbye to Tirbitz before leaving, but was stopped by Nuremberg.

"I'm sorry, Z24, I didn't want everyone to worry at the time, so I concealed the news that Tirpitz went to the North Sea, because I was thinking at the time, after we went to the Far Eastern Theater to accept the commission, escorted to the Nile Port in New England, and told you when we completed the mission, we should be able to catch up with Tirpitz if we moved to Warm Harbor, but I didn't expect this mission to fail. Nuremberg touched the hair of the Z24 sitting next to him slightly apologetically.

Li Ran also wanted to ask, Pinghai made tea and poured it for Nuremberg.

"Thank you. Nuremberg politely took it, then took a sip and continued:

"Do you want to ask what Erbitz told me before leaving? I'm sorry, she didn't say anything other than telling me that she was going back to Beihai, but she mentioned the black cat Oscar, and let me have time to go to the First Ship Niang Academy to bring the cat back. ”

"Oscar?" Li Ran turned his head to look at Bismarck, found that her hand was trembling slightly, and said in his heart:

Bismarck, you must be very uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Li Ran only wanted to know one thing, that is, how long had Tirbitz been gone, and he asked:

"So how long has Tirbitz been gone?"

"It's been about half a month, and if you look at the speed of our return at that time, she should have arrived at Nuangang at this time. ”

Nuremberg put down her teacup, and she reluctantly told the truth.

When Bismarck heard this, his heart sank.

Li Ran also knew that he might not be able to stop Tirbitz from going to the North Sea, but after all, these were all speculations, and he asked worriedly:

"If we leave now, how long will it take to get to Warm Harbor?"

"Now that the White Crane Line is under the attack of the deep sea, it was originally the closest to take this route, but when the deep sea attack Tirpitz should have passed this route, if you want to go to Warm Harbor, you can only take the Nile Harbor in New England from the Death Route, and then go north.

However, it may take longer to travel on the way, because if you take the death route, the threat of the deep sea is on the one hand, and the supply is also on the other, and the journey to the warm port is not smooth, although there are some town guards on the way that can provide resources to replenish, but compared to the long route, the number of these town guards is too small.

At the beginning, we were able to return so easily by following the southward current, but now, when we go up the ocean current to warm the harbor, I am afraid that the Admiral's ship lady will not be able to withstand such an ultra-long voyage. ”

Nuremberg's words made everyone silent, indeed, they more or less knew Tirbitz's reputation, "The Lonely Queen of the North", which was not only a title, but also proof that Tirbitz had been transformed.

Even the renovated Tirbitz went to Warm Harbor for half a month, and they thought of their own training, thought of their own ship, and thought of the harsh environment in the north, and knew that Nuremberg's words only told a cruel truth.

Bismarck couldn't help but feel powerless, she watched Li Ran's face become ugly, and said softly:

"Admiral, no more talk, I won't let you risk your ......"

"But that's your sister, don't you understand what Nuremberg said?"

Lexington was in the First Ship Niang Academy, and Tirpitz had a relationship, but at that time Tirpitz was notoriously arrogant, or rather, because she didn't like to have too much intersection with people, she originally thought that the North House was an unkind person, but now after listening to Nuremberg's story, her impression of the North House has changed greatly, so she hurriedly said to Bismarck:

"Yes, Bismarck, your sister must be waiting for you, or she wouldn't have traveled all the way to the North Sea to find the lost ice diamond. ”

"Wait, what exactly is the lost ice diamond you are talking about? Is it really that magical?" Li Ran didn't understand what the so-called power of contract was, even if this world was unscientific, but it would really hell if there was such a thing as metaphysics, he hurriedly asked:

"Does this diamond really have that magical power?"

Lexington sighed, and then said to Nuremberg:

"I'll tell you. ”

Nuremberg nodded, she herself only knew a little about the legend of the lost ice diamond, and when she heard Lexington say this, she also thought that if she was wrong, she would correct it herself, so she agreed.

Lexington gathered his thoughts for a moment, then asked:

"Commander, do you humans have a saying called [telepathy]?"

Li Ran nodded, and then said:

"Yes, but it can only be born between relatives or husband and wife, but telepathy is not very scientific after all. Except for a very small number of identical twins who may have this kind of mysterious and mysterious induction, it is generally difficult for ordinary people to believe. ”

"Well, the Lost Ice Diamond I am talking about has a similar ability to amplify telepathy, but this ability varies from person to person, and because this diamond is extremely rare, some of the ice diamond jewelry that has been circulated around the world has been exaggerated.

I happened to see several materials about the oath ring between the Admiral and the Ship Girl in the library of the First Ship Girl Academy, which specifically mentioned the Oath Ring of the Lost Ice Diamond, which can give both parties to the contract a wonderful ability similar to telepathy, and there is a Governor in history who happened to be one of the few who made a vow with his own ship Niang with the Lost Ice Diamond. ”

At this point, Lexington paused, and then said;

"That governor is the former Atlantic governor who died thirty years ago of unknown causes. ”

The corners of Li Ran's mouth twitched, isn't it, such a coincidence?

"Everyone must think it's a coincidence, right?" Lexington gently stroked the somewhat disheveled hair around his ear, and then said softly:

"This time I accompanied the Commander to the Thundering Town Guard's Mansion, and I wondered why the Prince of Wales would know about the Governor's death in the letter. ”

Lexington was halfway through his speech and realized that he might have lost his words.

"What letter, how does this have anything to do with the Prince of Wales?" Bismarck frowned.

Li Ran looked at Lexington's face a little flustered, and he sighed and said:

"Bismarck, I originally wanted to tell you about this as soon as I came back, but since Lexington said it, I see that none of you are outsiders, so then, Gaga, you take down the letter. ”

"Hmm. Saratoga saw that Li Ran didn't blame her sister, breathed a sigh of relief, and obediently went upstairs to get the letter.

And everyone here, except for Brooklyn, Raiders, and Lexington, was confused.

When Saratoga picked up the letter, Li Ran untied the file bag in which the letter was kept, and said:

"Originally, I thought that the less people knew about this matter, the better, but it might involve the search for Tirpitz, so I didn't care so much, if I could prevent Tirbitz from entering the North Sea, then I thought it would be nothing if this letter was handed over. ”

"Lord Admiral, what are you talking about?" Nuremberg looked at Li Ran's serious face, she also noticed that Brooklyn and the raider, who were also the mother of the Freedom Ship, were also nervous, and then watched Li Ran push the slightly yellowed paper to the center of the table:

"This is the letter that [Deep Blue Light] has been looking for, the handwritten letter of the legendary shipwrenth of the former Governor of the Atlantic, the Prince of Wales, and the only letter to the ship's mother who knows the truth about the [Bratton Crash] thirty years ago. ”

Nuremberg felt as if she had come into contact with something terrible, she knew the [Deep Blue Light], but she didn't understand the cause of the White Crane Line being attacked by the deep sea, except for Li Ran and Bai Nuoyan, the two admirals, who contacted the Pacific Governor through the equipment provided by Washington, only Lexington knew that the letter that she had been talking about might be in Li Ran's hands.

Bismarck was a little nervous at this time, she heard the meaning of Li Ran's words, took the letter back, and said:

"Admiral, you don't need to do this, I don't know if this letter has anything to do with the letter from the Governor of the Pacific, but I know that this letter will definitely cause you trouble, and I know that everyone wants to help with my sister's affairs, but I think there must be other ways. ”

"Bismarck!" Li Ran raised his voice, and then felt that his tone was a little fierce, he sighed, and said in a resolute tone:

"To tell you the truth, if I hadn't heard Nuremberg talk about Tilpitz, I wouldn't have made up my mind, even if it would cause trouble to hand over this letter, I'm not afraid, if I can't even satisfy my ship's wishes, then what else can I do!"

"Admiral......" Bismarck clutched the letter tightly, trying to restrain her tears.

"It's okay, I still have you, and even if you're in trouble, you'll be on my side, won't you?" Li Ran gently shook Bismarck's hand, handed the letter to Nuremberg, and said:

"See for yourself, the value of this letter, I think it should be enough in exchange for an opportunity to prevent Tirpitz from entering the North Sea!"

Nuremberg took the letter, looked at Li Ran, and then looked at Bismarck's face a little pale, she felt that the letter in her hand seemed to weigh more than a thousand pounds, she solemnly unfolded the letter, and then saw the beautiful Gothic font in one hand, and the name at the beginning of the letter, she read the letter quickly in disbelief, and then asked:

"This is a letter from the legendary Prince of Wales to the Royal Ark thirty years ago?"

Li Ran looked at everyone and seemed to be a little confused, so he simply briefly said the matter of the Leiming Town Guard, and then said:

"Therefore, this letter is likely to be the cause of this attack on the White Crane Line by the Deep Sea Fortress Hime. ”

"It's not possible, it's certain. Nuremberg sighed, if this was really the case, then she could not let Li Ran hand over the letter anyway, thought for a while and said:

"Lord Admiral, are you really not afraid of trouble?"

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, there are two things I'm most afraid of, one is death, and the other is trouble. Li Ran shrugged his shoulders, and after saying these words, he felt that his whole body was relaxed, so he continued:

"But with them with me, no amount of trouble is anything? and, as long as Bismarck and her sister can be reunited, the letter has already been worth it, and nothing else is compared to Tirpitz's safety. ”

The banquet suddenly fell silent, and all the shipwives looked at Li Ran, and their reactions were different.

The destroyer mother didn't know such a complicated thing, and she was a little curious.

The other shipwives were moved and shocked by Li Ran's words.

Li Ran gently clenched Bismarck's hand, then smiled softly and said:

"Don't worry, I'll let your sister come back to you safe and sound. ”
