"Admiral, why are you here?"

The arrival of Li Ran and his entourage immediately attracted the attention of Prince Eugen, who was helping to carry the goods outside, she put down the box in her hand and stepped forward:

"I'm going to inform Sister Bismarck. ”

"No, Eugen, what are you doing here?"

Li Ran looked at the many wooden boxes piled up outside the repair dock, but the light was not good in some places, so he couldn't see what the boxes were in.

"These are all kinds of materials sent by maritime merchants, but they are not four types of resources, there are many types, and we are in the process of classifying them. ”

"It's because you protected them, and they have a little conscience, but it seems that there are still not enough people, is it because there is not enough money?"

"For the time being, there is no shortage of manpower, although the maritime merchants come to ask for a hired shipwive, but these are all voluntary to come to help, but there is no matter of paying us, but if the maritime merchants go back by then, manpower is indeed a problem. ”

"Well, it's so late, everyone hasn't eaten yet, you can tell everyone to go to the office building, and I'll make you a good meal in the evening." ”

Li Ran looked at those mercenary ship ladies and seemed to be a little curious, he smiled at them, and then said:

"You should have some food here, Emden, do you have any vehicles on the island?"

"Well, in the case of minivans, there should be two in the repair dock. ”

"Alright, Eugen, tell them to wait for me in the office building first, I have something to talk to Bismarck. ”

"Well, Admiral, I'll take you there. Prince Eugen nodded, and then said to Li Ran.

Li Ran nodded, and then said to Emden and Helena:

"I'll leave it to you here, tell everyone to go back first, I'll go back later, by the way, Helena, you help me inform the others to put their work down first, it's time to go back for lunch, this is an order, you can explain the handling of the ingredients to Pinghai, this is your task at night." ”

Helena wanted to say something, but when Emden gently tugged on her arm, she chose to remain silent.

It was not until Li Ran and Prince Eugen walked into the repair dock that Helena withdrew her gaze and said to Emden with some puzzlement:

"Aren't you afraid that the Admiral will be angry with Bismarck?"

Emden sighed:

"Have you forgotten that Bismarck was the Admiral's lover?"

A hint of loss flashed in Helena's eyes, yes, she had forgotten that Bismarck was the Admiral's current lover, as for herself......

Helena remembered the ring that Li Ran gave herself before, with the decline of the port area, the ring had disappeared after she came back from the dead, and the admiral didn't seem to remember the previous memories, she was inevitably a little stunned.

So many things have happened in a year, just a year when the Admiral has not been seen.

Helena laughed to herself, she was now like the other sisters, maybe it would be better to start over, since the Admiral had reappeared, she would be able to explain to them in her dreams.

That dream, a nightmare filled with blood and fire......

"Helena, are you okay, your face is ......" Emden looked at Helena and suddenly fell silent, she had heard some rumors about Helena from the sisters in the port area, although it was rude to criticize her sister behind her back, but she would inevitably pay attention to things related to the Admiral, seeing Helena's face so pale, she thought for a moment where she had said the wrong thing, and immediately reacted, she quickly apologized and said:

"Sorry, I shouldn't have ......"

"It's okay, some things are in the past. Helena's words were full of inexplicable meaning, and she shook her head slightly, and then said:

"It's time to work, this is the task given to us by the Admiral, I'm fine, I'm just a little sad when I remember something. ”

Emden saw Helena say this, she also knew that everyone has their own secrets, and not peeping and exploring is the respect for Helena.

……

Li Ran followed Prince Eugen into the so-called repair dock, which is actually a very simple place, but the terrain here is unique, and next to it is a natural waterway that goes deep into Island A, but this waterway can only be entered and exited by ship girls, and even the smallest ships can't enter.

"Isn't it too low?"

Li Ran saw that there seemed to be no precipitous terrain to defend nearby, although the waterway next to it was indeed very convenient for the shipwives to go on the expedition, but in the same way, this was a downhill terrain, and even the sound of the waves could be heard in the factory, he was a little worried.

"Yes, but there are many small reefs outside the repair dock, and you can see clearly during the day, but at night the sea is high and you can't see clearly, and then those reefs are natural barriers. ”

"Aren't you also dangerous, if you go out at night?"

Li Ran frowned, although it seems that the reef is indeed a barrier, but after all, it is also a defect that may accidentally injure his own side.

"It is true that it is inevitable that we will be injured by nature when taking advantage of the danger, but has the Admiral forgotten the submarines, if they are there, they can inform us in advance of the area where the reef is located at the bottom of the sea. ”

"I see, by the way, what about the otaku?"

Li Ran walked along the way and found that it was quiet in the repair dock, and the mercenary shipwrews had left one after another, but she still hadn't been able to see Bismarck.

"The Admiral comes with me, they should be repairing the ditch. ”

Prince Eugen greeted the mercenaries along the way, and then walked through the repair dock area, towards the natural waterway, and saw a cavern carved into the cliff, and he was a little surprised:

"What is this cave?"

"This is a natural karst cave, after Sister Bismarck arrived on Island A, it took about half a month to transform the cave into a repair canal, so in fact, the repair dock does not have the function of entering the canal, and if you want to enter the canal, you still need to go to the top. ”

Saying that, Prince Eugen took Li Ran to the edge of the natural waterway, and then pressed a switch on the wall, Li Ran saw the original rock wall, and slowly lowered a cleverly camouflaged trestle bridge, because of the light, Li Ran didn't find it at the first time.

"What an ingenious design, did Bismarck have in mind?"

"No, it was a guest who helped us think of it, Admiral, and the guest said that he wanted to see you when he had a chance. ”

"See me?" Li Ran was a little dazed, he was not a native of this world, and someone knew him?

"Well, but the guest has already left, and before she left, she said that we were only helped by someone, and by the way, she also said that if the Admiral had the opportunity to come, let us tell you a word. ”

"What?"

"The photo of the watch is not the last memory, there is someone waiting for you. ”

Prince Eugen said this, and then saw that Li Ran's body stiffened, and her face was a little ugly, she hurriedly asked:

"Admiral, are you alright? ”

"It's okay, by the way, can you tell us a little bit about her appearance?"

Li Ran walked up to the trestle, and then asked Prince Eugen:

"I'm a little curious. ”

"Well, it seems to be white-haired, and it should be a ship girl, but Sister Bismarck said that the other party was very dangerous, and she wanted to refuse the other party's kindness at that time, but at that time, Kotaku's words made Bismarck's class change their minds. ”

"Small house?" Li Ran smiled, his face returned to normal, he was a little stunned, and couldn't help but recall the time when he was hiding from the air raid of the deep-sea first air war in Qiyun City, and unconsciously the small house had also come to his port area for more than two months.

"Yes, if it weren't for Kotaku, Sister Bismarck's brow would probably be furrowed. "Prince Eugen has basically been by her side since he was rescued by Bismarck, and in two months she found that Bismarck was a person who carried everything by himself, especially after the Admiral was assassinated, he was even more strict with himself, and she was always very worried, but after the boy came, she obviously saw Bismarck laughing more.

"Pistachio, if you're with Kotaku, Bismarck can't keep her face tight, after all, she's also a sister. ”

"Yes, but when will Lord Tirpitz come over and see, Sister Bismarck has actually always wanted to meet her sister, although the small house is Lord Tirpitz's childhood, but after all, it is two people. ”

"Well, it's coming, we'll leave for the First Ship Niang Academy at the end of this month, and I'll ask Tirpitz in person when the time comes, it would be best if she could join us in the port area, not to mention this, Bismarck, has she been working here?"

Stepping onto the repair dock on the rock wall, the natural cave, he found that it was surprisingly neat, and the inside was very clean and bright, with tiles all around.

"No, it's just that there were too many people suddenly poured in this morning, Sister Bismarck was also injured, and everyone unanimously asked her to repair here, and Sister Bismarck should be repaired soon. ”

Prince Eugen said, and then led Li Ran through the long corridor of the cave, stopping in a huge hollow area, where a lot of resources were piled up.

Li Ran looked at Prince Eugen and stopped, he was stunned, and then asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Admiral, Sister Bismarck's battle column repair pool on the left, you can go and see for yourself, I'll go find the small mansion, U47 and U96 will be back soon. ”

"Well, will we meet here later?"

"Let the Admiral go back with Sister Bismarck then. Eugen said, and then he walked to a door not far away, and opened it.

Li Ran touched his nose, this place is a little scary, and there don't seem to be too many traces of artificial excavation, basically all of them are naturally formed.

He had to sigh at the wonders of nature, and while watching, he walked to the door.

"Bismarck, are you there?"

"Admiral, what's the matter?"

Li Ran didn't speak, he directly unscrewed the door, and then saw Bismarck's smooth back, in the misty bathhouse, that is, in the repair pool, revealing a halo that made him a little staggering.

Li Ran's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he forgot about the ship's maidens' entry into the canal, in other words, when it comes to human beings, it is to take a bath, and he is in a dilemma at this time.

Bismarck still turned his back to Li Ran, and then did not look back, and said in a very calm tone:

"Admiral, can you close the door before you speak?"

Li Ran suddenly reacted and hurriedly said:

"I'm sorry, I'm going out. ”

"Admiral, don't you have something to say?

"But ......"

"Admiral...... Am I beautiful?"

Bismarck suddenly stood up from the pool, then turned around and looked at Li Ran with a smile.
