20. Chapter XX

Chapter 20: Rain and Shine

Melanie, the hottest in the Navy Headquarters Hospital, scolded people and acted smoothly, refusing to even give people a chance to argue.

In addition to the music floating from the speaker, the fun and laughter disappeared for a while, and even the strong men in the store stopped dancing, and all kinds of eyes instantly gathered in this corner.

After a while, taking advantage of the fact that the bride-to-be was slightly relieved by the anger, I raised my hand to make an enthusiastic statement, "Actually... I can ask Lieutenant General Ghost Spider to come forward..."

Before I could say 'clear up the misunderstanding', the head nurse Caroline slapped me on the back of the head and laughed, "You have a good heart, but unfortunately no one appreciates it." ”

When I looked back blankly, Caroline's lips hooked slightly, and her eyes showed a hint of coldness, "Do you think others don't know about misunderstandings?" If it wasn't clear from the beginning, why didn't you make trouble when someone came to explain, and you had to create rumors in private? ”

As she spoke, the head nurse turned her face away, stared at the young girl standing on the side, and said, "That lieutenant general has been hospitalized since he began to recover, and he has never had a chance to meet at all, no matter how stupid he is, he knows that it is impossible to be liked." ”

"What man would fall in love with a woman he has never met?"

"It's just that I'm not reconciled."

"The Navy Headquarters Hospital, personnel have come and gone over the years, how stupid and stupid, how shrewd and wise girls are, Melanie is right, we are not obliged to educate children for other people's families..."

"Dolores, you are stupid, don't implicate your close colleagues!"

…………

The reaction of the head nurse, Caroline and Melanie, made me a little inexplicable, but my eyes looked very... The delicate girl glanced at it, thought about it, and suddenly... One thing comes to mind, and it's not a good thing.

If yes... That's really... I turned my head and asked my former boss in a low voice, "It's a lot of trouble... Troublesome? ”

"Nonsense!" Melanie rolled her eyes and gritted her teeth, "Even how you seduced and how the other party reacted, you can figure it out!" What a bunch of idiots! ”

"Okay, okay~" Raising my hand and rubbing the corners of my forehead, I sighed boringly, "At least my imagination is good." ”

After sighing, he got up, slowly took a few steps forward, and smiled, "All three of you should indeed resign, Caroline Nurse is really, she has always been too soft-hearted." ”

"Why are you!"

Raising my hand to stop the indignant shouting, I sighed again and looked at the three young girls in front of me, "When I entered the naval hospital, the new officers all received a booklet, right?" ”

"The treatment enjoyed by every staff member of the Navy Agency, and the code of conduct that must be strictly adhered to."

"I guess you weren't paying much attention at all, were you?" Drawing the size of the depicted object with my hand, I raised an eyebrow at the bewildered-looking girls, "White cover, a few centimeters thick, called [Equal Duty and Right]. ”

"At the beginning of the book, on page 2, in the third paragraph..."

"Propagation of matters relating to officers and soldiers of the Navy shall be punishable by forced labour for one year, expulsion from the island, and the refusal of any navy to stay on the island."

"It is not specified whether it is defamatory or not..."

"If you think I'm talking about it, you go back and flip through the booklet."

The faces of the three girls in front of me changed drastically, and I shook my head.

"I don't care, reputation is worthless, but... If you have something about an admiral... This matter can be big or small, and those who listen may laugh it off, but no one dares to guarantee that no rumors will reach the ears of people who should not hear it. ”

"You don't need to follow the rules after you resign, Caroline Nurse and Melanie are actually protecting you."

…………

Publicity and dissemination of matters related to admirals and soldiers must be punished, and whether or not the whispers are true is investigated by the Navy's own military police.

The so-called 'code of conduct' is very unreasonable, but unfortunately...

The rules of the game of the Navy Headquarters, it is such an overlord clause.

Otherwise, how could the town of Marinford be so peaceful? I have lived on the island for more than ten years, looking at the navy like a big wave and sand, justice is awe-inspiring, despicable and insidious, there are all kinds of people, and it is not without civilians who have been bullied.

It is the power of power that chokes everyone by force.

Of course, the camp of the Navy Headquarters did a good job, starting with the high-ranking generals and down to the soldiers, most of them restrained themselves and tried to match the justice engraved behind them.

However, there are no absolutes, and darkness in the depths of light is also in the depths.

It's just that no one cares, even if they are not members of the naval establishment, the residents of the towns... No one is willing to be stupid and test whether the naval camp is absolutely honest and fair.

The young girl was a little impulsive, just trying to be happy for a while.

…………

"Debate is an endless cycle, I have always had no patience to try, believe it or not, after all, the consequences are not borne by others."

Spreading my hands, I turned around, didn't bother to say anything more, and swayed back into place, falling into the layers of soft satin cushions, squinting at Caroline, the head nurse, with a smile in the corner of my eyes.

When he met my eyes, the head nurse threw out a huge white eye, snorted, stuffed another wine glass, and clinked glasses with me who took it, and the two of them drank it all at the same time, smiled, and each other was light.

I slumped into the cushions of the Persian harem, looking up at the crystal lamps hanging down from the heights, and the corners of my mouth lifted.

I said it was strange that they were losing their temper so much... Did you sense that something was wrong?

Groundless rumors, this kind of thing can indeed be big or small, and irrelevant people may have heard it, but they can't stand anyone who is troublesome, and poke it into the ears of people who shouldn't hear it.

The reputation of a Navy hospital nurse, no one cares, the bad is bad for another person, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider is a high-ranking Navy officer.

Caroline and Melanie, both of whom are generals in their families, are probably ... It was only after a few words had been missed that Caroline and Melanie took a tough stance in order to protect the three young girls and warn those who happened to get involved.

Anyway... Labor expulsions are too harsh.

I'm probably in passing, because... I, a person who doesn't move with a needle, is not without all kinds of rumors.

Colleagues for so many years, who does not know whom, the turnover rate of the Navy Headquarters Hospital has always been the most frequent department, and the iron-clad soldiers, especially the young girls, usually get married soon after working and then resign.

There are few people who can stay for a few years without moving, and in the end, they are familiar with each other in the hospital, and the rumors have passed and laughed, and I once heard that the head nurse Caroline fooled around with strange men on Flower Street~

The messenger said it well, and Caroline and I didn't laugh and forget it?

Melanie, not to mention, is gorgeous and spicy, she and the one who is preparing to get married, the peak of the relationship journey can be played in a bloody drama, and similarly, the unwarranted rumors are also wonderful.

If you care about everything, you will die of anger, okay?

It's not that 'those who are clear will clean themselves', but they don't mind at all.

What kind of women are we, and what do we have to do with irrelevant people? The more we don't care, the more bad it will be to spread those malicious thoughts, and we care about it.

I've said everything I need to say, as for ... What are the results, does it have anything to do with me?

There is no way for good or evil, but people call themselves.

…………

It didn't take long for the hustle and bustle to begin again.

The girls who didn't have long after the stop continued to have fun, and I said that no one really cares, coming to the party tonight... The temperament can be compatible with the bride-to-be.

Things gather in kind, and people are divided in groups~

If it weren't for the brutal system of the Navy, I guess that no one in the hospital would have to take care of the young girl's tricks, and the Navy Headquarters Hospital wouldn't have some fun in what year? When the excitement is watched, lest life be too boring~

Every time the annual drama happens, everyone also has the opportunity to be on the cusp, and the turtle can't laugh and the turtle has no tail.

…………

The vignette passed without a trace, and I turned over and changed positions every once in a while, and then drank a glass of wine from time to time, and passed the time in a daze.

Gradually, the music that came into my ears changed from melodious to sluggish and tactful, and when I lifted my eyelids, I found that the light had become more dim than before, and I got up a little and saw Melanie's hand again... Put it on the arm of a strong man...

Sluggish blinking eyes, "Hey, hey, hey!" Opened his mouth to stop the river crab that was likely to run rampant, and then, I stared at Melanie's beautiful eyes, and the corners of my mouth twitched slightly, "Let him go~ Although he doesn't look like a child anymore, he β€”β€”β€”β€”"

Say goodbye to the bachelorette party, a vote of women is crazy and has no measure, but... The people who appear in the store will also make money, you don't need to let people take their lives, dear!

Looking up and down at the half-fruited and heroic strong man a few times, I looked sincere, "The groom's jealousy can burn his bones to the core." "As a promising general of the Navy Headquarters, if the prospective groom overturns the vinegar jar, this handsome guy will definitely not be able to hold it!

Hearing this, the strong man kept smiling and stepped back a little without a trace.

"Cut! Boring. The bride-to-be snorted, then put away her fingers stuck to her muscles, raised her hand to stroke the ends of her hair, and spoke, "I want to play cards, you accompany me." ”

After brushing his hair, his slender fingertips stretched out and passed one by one, "Look at your idleness, come and play cards." ”

"Hey~" I stood up, "You're the biggest tonight, you have the final say." ”

So, shift positions.

………… Dividing line ............

A corner of the meeting place, a slightly remote location, a table for four people... Start the hand.

Play mahjong.

My left and right hands, up and down are Caroline and Melanie, opposite is Daisy in the emergency room, Melanie's best friend, a girl who seems to be quiet and sweet but is actually a little dark-bellied.

It didn't take long for her to sit down, and in a few words, the person who set the winning and losing chips as the winning hand could ask the loser to do one thing in turn, no matter what...

As a result, the mahjong game becomes an alternative version of Truth or Dare...

Caroline and Melanie were in high spirits, and I shrugged my shoulders and was okay.

Lay the cards, drop the dice/subs and roll around a few times, turn over the dot face... Thereupon... Begin.

…………

The ivory cards crackled and slammed on the table, and the four of them couldn't help but chat while the war was in full swing.

Women~ Like men, when there is only the same sex, the topic can generally be talked about and talked about to the opposite sex, either to fight against the enemy, or to make fun of it.

Of course, it is also inseparable from tobacco and alcohol.

I'm not an alcoholic, and I'm not addicted to smoking, but I'm not immune to vulgarity.

Smoke and dim lighting, I stared at the cards in my hand, keeping an eye on what was playing on the table so as not to lose, and at the same time distracted from the topic, so I didn't drink, but only bit the cigarette at the corner of my mouth, humming and answering about the child.

Caroline, the head nurse, happened to ask Nana, and I told them that the child in the family was still the same, and that it seemed to be well-behaved but was actually awkward, and then they laughed at me for not knowing what to do in the midst of happiness.

The colleagues who have been in the hospital for a long time have watched Nana grow up, and the children are ~ women, especially married women, all kinds of topics are endless, and by the way, why didn't Nana be brought tonight.

I shrugged, threw a card, and shifted the subject.

I rarely take Nana with me on such occasions, for fear of teaching bad bear children too early.

Nana loved watching me play mahjong and was eager to try it, but when I found out, I immediately gave up her hope and stopped taking her around to similar occasions.

Although women should order everything, so as not to be too boring, but... It's not okay to be strong in betting.

Bear children who are easily tempted before they are stereotyped should listen to bedside stories obediently.

…………

In the first few minutes, Caroline emerged as the winner.

Pressing out the cigarette stick, the head nurse raised the corners of his eyes and smiled gently, "Don't worry, I won't tell you to do anything strange, just-"

After listening to the request, the three people who lost were wailing at the same time, I raised my hand to cover my face, I only felt that my ears were a little hot, this kind of problem is really... It makes people's old faces red, and their souls are light!

…………

Not long after being triumphant, the head nurse was quickly retaliated against, Melanie raised her eyebrows and exhaled, "Hehehe~"

I continued to cover my face.

And then... As you play, you don't know where to go at the table.

The winner's demands, from the truth of [beep-beep-beep-] to the big adventure of [beep-beep-beep-], all kinds of unbelievable.

Several times I didn't win a card, and the guide answered all kinds of experiences and feelings, and even walked around to tease the strong man with money... After that, I was very depressed tonight, with very bad luck.

Before the new round of cards, I can't wait for my eyes to suddenly become see-through, and I can't be more congested.

Lay the cards, the dice/sub roll, roll.

The four of them began to concentrate at the same time, and by the way, they were a little apprehensive, um~ plus a little excitement.

After a while, the boxy ivory cards were thrown into the center of the table, and the sound of impact was crisp and crisp.

As the cards in my hand were played out again and again, I couldn't stop worrying, or I still caught a bad hand, and there was little chance of winning.

"Anna~" Melanie smiled charmingly and with great ill intentions, "I'll explain it in advance~ Wait a minute, if I win, Anna, you..."

After listening to the big adventure that had to be silenced, I pretended to be calm and bared my teeth, "The conservative style I wore tonight probably won't be wanted if I want to give it away." Although he said it lightly, he couldn't help but be anxious.

After speaking, he reached out and touched the cigarette pack on the corner of the table, bit one and lit it, and used nicotine to ease the mood slightly.

Daisy, on the other side, threw out another one that I wanted but couldn't eat, and then she didn't raise her eyebrows and smiled, "Before you worry about your underwear, answer the question you owe me, Anna." ”

"Look at your nervousness, playing cards is like counting tofu."

"What's wrong with counting tofu, can't you be nervous?" I shook my eyebrows, took off the cigarette from the corner of my mouth, and lifted the corner of my mouth unwillingly, "Eh~ It's not a little girl, do you want me to talk about your question?" ”

"When a man is hard, he is soft-hearted, and when he is soft, it would be good if you let him only be soft-hearted to you in the future~"

Sneered, bit the cigarette back into the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to touch his own card, I hummed vaguely, "I can't take off my underwear, I want to decide a game of cards, you are dreaming~"

If you lose, take off the fat time and give it to the man you see it at first sight... Whether it's a man or a woman, you have to be nervous about this kind of thing, okay?

…………

I rolled my eyes at the three women who looked at me with bad intentions, but the hand that reached out missed the target, or someone was quick to pick up the card.

There was a sense of zΓ i behind him sticking to the extreme place without warning, the smell of the sea tide and tobacco mixed with the smell of rubbing my ears, and my fingers picked up the emerald sheng card, and gently and skillfully spread it in front of my eyes.

My eyes shrank slightly, and I stared at the fingers that were slowly moving away, the nails were cut short, and the slender fingers with distinct joints... After a few seconds, his gaze slid along the snail bone in his wrist.

The sleeves of the shirt are pulled up to the elbows, the texture of the forearm is tight, and the dark wheat skin...

"Yay~Anna won~" The tone was dark and deep, and the shadows shrouded in as I spoke, and the faint smell of wine sprayed into my breath, and the slow and leisurely laughter carried a subtle hint, "Of course you can't be casual." ”

Yellow... General Yellow Ape!

This surprise was not trivial, I trembled, and tried to jump up, but my shoulder called someone to hold it down first, and as if he had predicted my reaction, he came around my back with his other hand to... Rather obscurantist posture is not light or heavy.

With the warmth attached to my shoulders, the light clothes in the summer, the rough palms rubbing like a shadow, and the cigarette in the corner of my mouth told him to take it, my eyes widened, and I kept a posture that was obviously twisted away from my face, and my mind went blank.

Suddenly, the man put the cigarette in his mouth, took a puff and took it down, the hand holding the cigarette was weakly held on the edge of the table, and the man was half leaning closer, with slender pupils and a smile in his eyes.

…………

The originally leisurely noise suddenly became eerily quiet, and there was a faint noise behind him, but it quickly subsided.

I didn't have time to react, through the corner of my eye, the three women playing cards at the same table were dumbfounded, their eyes shifted and they didn't know what they saw, they actually got up together and walked away quickly.

Feed! You unrighteous people! I groaned inwardly, and then I felt the fingers on my shoulders tighten a little harder.

"Yay~ Anna is really easy to shake." The yellow ape general said again, "It's amazing~ Ignored by a woman nearby, this is the first time this kind of encounter~" The tone seems to be careless, and the tail note is higher... Vaguely eccentric.

"Mr. Yellow Ape General." I quickly focused on it, forcing myself to squeeze out a sincere smile, "You..." choked up, swallowing the not-so-clear words of "come and play too", and twisted it into an ordinary greeting, "What a coincidence." ”

He didn't speak, but it was not bad to look at me, and he saw that I was stiff.

The atmosphere became more and more frightening, and after a long time, the hand resting on his shoulder was released, and the yellow ape general straightened up again, and then took half a step back and leaned against the table, with that kind of lazy smile on his face, and bit the cigarette again as if nothing had happened.

The corners of my eyes twitched slightly, I was really made by his actions... Inexplicably creepy.

The supreme officer of the Navy's Department of Science was dressed casually tonight, with a shirt and trousers, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, a somewhat loose tie, and a smell of cigarettes and alcohol. I just came here from the fun scene.

But that's not the point!

The point is!

Whether it's the cigarette he took from my mouth, or the words and deeds that he laughed at with other meanings... There's really no reason to hey!

After the horror, there was suspicion, and I didn't know any trace while looking at it silently in my heart: Is it drunk and dizzy? Or did you hit a short circuit in your brain somewhere?

…………

After a moment, Admiral Yellow Ape pressed the cigarette butt and ended the slightly stuck-in silence, "I heard that the people from the Navy Hospital are meeting here, and Anna is there..."

Then he picked up a mahjong tile with his backhand and played with it on his fingertips, "Have a game with me?" ”

Seeing that I shook my head desperately, he hooked his lips again and smiled a little, "I'm also soft on Anna, don't be afraid of losing, huh?" The last one called the nose to hum, very weird smell.

I was stunned, and after reacting, my whole face darkened, "Mr. Yellow Ape doesn't know what indecent behavior is, don't listen?" ”

I couldn't bear it anymore, I stood up suddenly, I grinded my teeth, and almost didn't spit on his face, no matter how prodigal a woman's words in private are, they should not enter the ears of outsiders.

Caroline and I have been friends for many yearsβ€”β€”β€”β€” and you...

I've been under a lot of pressure lately, and I'm going crazy tonight when I relax... It's my fault for being inappropriate when I drink, but you... Forget it if you hear it... It's still like this... Just...

Down/Stream!

…………

Turning around, he flicked his sleeves away angrilyβ€”β€”β€”β€” stepped under his feet, and his arms suddenly told him to clench.

"yes~I can't let you out now~"

The Yellow Ape General's voice became a little colder, the strength in his hand was neither light nor heavy, but I couldn't break free, "The ghost spider is outside, what do you want to see him doing?" ”

After a few seconds of silence, he sneered again, "The rumors have been wonderful lately, Anna, don't you?" It sounded like a precursor to a storm in his laughing voice.

The struggle suddenly stopped, and I turned my head to look at the smiling gaze of the naval general, only to feel that my heart was imperceptibly tightened, and suddenly understood.

Dolores... How many young girls are there in the Navy Headquarters Hospital?

Is it true that someone has eaten up and spread rumors into the ears of people who shouldn't be listening? Caroline and Melanie's efforts were in vain?!

My eyes widened, and he watched quietly.

For a long time, "yes~" General Yellow Ape's tone seemed to be a little regretful, with his slowly rubbing fingers, full of evil taste, "It's not that there is no room for redemption, just look at Anna's choice..."

Ha? I suddenly wanted to laugh, "Mr. Yellow Ape General, it seems that I am a fool?" ”

How stupid do I have to be to make you think I'm a virgin?
