"I miss you too. ”

Since he hugged the firefly, and then kissed her forehead:

"You all worked hard and did a great job. ”

"Hee-hee, Admiral, do you know? I'll tell you......"

The firefly whispered in Li Ran's ear about the day before yesterday, and then persuaded very sensibly:

"The Admiral should take care of the Courage, not just the fireflies. ”

Li Ran was stunned, and when he heard the firefly say that Kokang was desperate for everyone, he looked up at Kokang who was sitting alone on the beach in the distance, this little guy didn't even know that he was here, he sighed slightly in his heart, and then whispered in the ear of the firefly:

"Got it, you take everyone to play, I'll talk to Kokang. ”

Li Ran said, put the firefly down, and then said to Helena and Emden:

"Can you give me a moment alone?"

Helena was a little puzzled, and Emden looked around, and saw the courage sitting on the beach in a daze, a flash of understanding flashed in her eyes, and then took Helena's hand and said:

"Of course, Admiral, then Helena and I will take the little ones back to the office building and wait for you. ”

With that, Emden pulled Helena, who was dazed, away.

Sigsby and Walkland were called away by fireflies, and Pinghai was just about to call the daze of the seaside, but was dragged by the fireflies.

"Sister Pinghai, let's give the Admiral a little time. ”

Pinghai reacted at this time, she finally reacted, then nodded and left the training ground with the fireflies.

Li Ran waited until everyone had left the training ground, and then he quietly walked to Kokang's side, and found that the little guy was asleep, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

However, after hearing the firefly say that Guo Dare broke in order to buy time for everyone, he looked at the slightly petite figure beside him, and couldn't help but reach out and gently comb her broken hair that was messed up by the sea breeze.

At this time, Kokang suddenly let out a dream:

"Everybody...... Come on...... Run......"

Li Ran felt a little distressed in his heart, looking at Kokang frowning, I was afraid that he had a nightmare, he sighed, and then gently hugged Kokang in his arms, and said softly:

"Everyone's fine, you're doing a good job. ”

In her daring dream, she watched those torpedoes row out the white waves, but everyone didn't notice it, and she didn't think about rushing forward.

Torpedoes tore through her ship's suit, and flames scorched her body.

The pain made her conscious a little blurred.

However, her bold and strong willpower kept her from falling into a coma, and seeing everyone's sad expressions, she looked at her body and realized that she had been seriously injured.

Just when she thought she was going to sleep at the bottom of the sea forever, just when she thought she would return to the cold and dark bottom of the sea again, she heard a voice.

She swam hard towards the sea, saw a light, saw the fireflies and others crying sadly when she was sent to the repair dock, and she knew that she was not sinking in the ocean.

At this time, the voice was clearer, and she felt like she was being held in a comfortable embrace.

When she finally reacted, she opened her eyes and saw herself lying on the Admiral's lap, and she muttered to herself:

"Is it the Admiral, or is it a dream?"

"It's not a dream. Li Ran scratched his bold nose and showed a gentle smile. Then he said:

"I'm late, sorry. ”

"Mention ...... Admiral ......"

Guo Dang's body stiffened, the touch of her nose made her sleepiness completely subside, she was about to get up, but she felt Li Ran's hand feed her hard, and then she heard Li Ran say in an unquestionable tone:

"It's okay to rest when you're tired, if you don't mind, my knees will be your pillow. ”

Guo Dare suddenly wanted to cry, she never dreamed that she would hear the Admiral say this to herself, but his tone was a little low, his mood was not too high, and he whispered:

"Admiral, did the Fireflies tell you?"

"I don't know much about the general situation, but you saved everyone, didn't you?"

"But, but I ......"

"It's nothing, everyone is safe, and more importantly, if you're okay, it's okay. ”

Li Ran knew that Kokang must blame himself for being injured and dragging down his companions, so he gently stroked Kokang's head, and then said:

"Sometimes it's a great courage to sacrifice, but, boldly, the next time you are not allowed to gamble with your own life, you should know how worried everyone will be. ”

"Admiral, is the courage not strong enough, is it because the courage is not hard enough to be like that, if I could have been more focused at that time......"

Kokang still can't let go of the reality of his early exit from the battlefield, and for the soldiers, it is a very frustrating feeling to go to the front line early because of injuries.

But she found that Li Ran stretched out his hand and gently covered his mouth, and then his face was a little dissatisfied, and he said in a slightly reproachful tone:

"You don't have to think so, you know? The battlefield is changing rapidly, no one will know everything in advance, you have done a good job, a good soldier, the value does not have to be on the front line to be reflected, you know? ”

Guo Dang felt a little confused, her mood was still a little low, she gently broke free from Li Ran's embrace, sat up, looked at the sea in the distance in a daze, and whispered:

"The Admiral doesn't need to comfort my ......"

Sometimes the most important thing in an army is not how advanced the weapons and equipment are, not how good the tactics are, and even victory is not the most important thing for the army, but the most important thing is a spirit that can infect the people around it.

What you have brought to you is such a spirit of fearless sacrifice, and you have given birth to a proud military soul in the Xiguang Town Guard. ”

Guo Dare was stunned, she looked at her admiral's face was extremely serious, and her tears slipped silently, like pearls with broken threads.

Li Ran knew that this kind of thing was like a brush with death for the ship's mother, he did not panic this time, but calmly stretched out his hand to gently wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then said:

"It's good to cry, sometimes you don't have to carry everything on your shoulders, you and me. ”

Courage finally couldn't suppress his fear anymore, the ship girls are creatures born of the beautiful thoughts of human beings, and their hearts are incomparably strong because of their purity on the one hand, and on the other hand, they are far more fragile than they imagined.

Only after experiencing the baptism of the battlefield will the ship girls become the Valkyries on the ocean.

And in this process, some ship girls will have psychological shadows due to injuries, and if they are not channeled in time, they are likely to be in danger of deepening.

Li Ran had fully understood this before, so he was relieved to see that Guo Kang finally stopped hiding his emotions.

As long as you don't hold it in your heart, that's a good thing.

Having been a soldier, he understands that after being a soldier on the battlefield, some psychological problems may arise after the war.

And the identity of the ship girls in this world is in a sense soldiers, and the admiral is their military commander in other words.

It's just that the relationship between the admiral and the ship's mother is not a simple relationship between superiors and subordinates, but more like a family.

Therefore, Li Ran attaches great importance to the mental health of every ship's mother.

Therefore, he just quietly accompanied Guo Kang, and waited until she finally stopped crying before saying:

"Be bold, no matter what doubts and troubles you have in the future, Admiral and I can be your tree hole, as long as you don't dislike me. ”

Guo nodded vigorously, then she suddenly turned around, and then threw herself into Li Ran's arms, her cheeks were slightly red, and she said in his ear:

"Thank you, Admiral. ”

As he spoke, Guo Ran secretly kissed him slightly on the cheek before Li Ran could react, and then trotted away.

Li Ran touched his cheek, then smiled silently, got up and followed:

"Wait for me. ”
