18. Chapter XVIII
Chapter 18 Sunny and Rainy
With the first cicadas, Marlingford enters summer.
The climate of the islands in the Great Passage is unique, and it is almost contradictory to my original common sense, in the case of Malinford, it is said to be the climate of Spring Island, which is pleasant all year round, and a sweater and jacket solve the problem in winter.
Then, the summer is not too hot to bear, at most the daylight hours are extended.
I don't have any research on natural climatology, but I've lived here for many years, and I've come to the conclusion that it is... With warm winters and cool summers, average rainfall, the so-called 'spring island' resembles a temperate oceanic climate.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, even if the world is not Earth but already on Mars... Can I still fly back to Blue Star?
Off topic, I'm going to talk about summer...
Probably the weather is dry, so some hormones are also very agitated.
…………
I changed jobs.
To be exact, I was 'moved'.
Transferred from the Navy Headquarters Hospital to the Medical Department of the Navy Military Academy, she is still a nurse, but... All of a sudden, from the periphery where the eight poles can't be beaten, to the headquarters where many people want to come in with their heads squeezed out, this treatment simply makes me excited (hairy) and ten thousand (terrifying) points (yet).
As for the reason for being treated so favorably, Nana said that I didn't know if I asked three questions, and the bear child's mouth was as tight as a clam shell, so I had to plan to knock on the side and hit others, but the results were not effective.
Because I'm not familiar with life in the Navy Headquarters~ When the bear child asks about related topics, he flattened his mouth to cry or not, and the little sumo wrestler who likes to come to the door to eat has always looked at Nana as the leader, and other people... I don't recognize it~
Cheng was afraid to accept Ren Wen Jiàn, and asked someone to lead him to the medical department of the Navy Military Academy to recognize his familiar face, and when he came back in the afternoon, another surprise hit his head.
I... (was) moved, located somewhere in the town of Malinford, and the residence of the military family that I had worked so hard to apply for, was replaced by the Navy Headquarters... The high-ranking generals adjoined... Suite.
Seeing the great relocation of the family that he has been operating for more than ten years, all kinds of utensils, sundries and furniture are completely placed in place, that is, the whole shell has been replaced... I endured and endured, but at last I couldn't hold back the young soldier who was leading the way, and asked him to ask his commander to come out and explain it to me.
Since everyone doesn't know what to ask, let's come out and explain it well.
No matter how much I make a bun, I'll bite if I'm in a hurry, okay?
Then, the young soldier looked like I didn't know what to do, and I took the trouble to invite the commander who could speak, the supreme commander of the Ministry of Science, the general Yellow Ape.
Admiral Huang Ape said that because of all kinds of military secrets that could not be disclosed to me, an outsider, job transfers and removals were all protected by the Navy's protection system to protect me, a nepotistic figure who was 'Nana, the hope of the Ministry of Science'.
The rhetoric made me dizzy.
Then, in the various sideways glances of several accompanying generals on the side, the Yellow Ape General explained patiently with a friendly face, and the words were always summed up like this:
Or because of military secrets, I can't be in Nana's dormitory, because it is full of researchers from the Ministry of Science, and there are all kinds of tedious checks and audits for people entering and leaving, etc., etc.
In addition, in line with the psychology of caring for his subordinates, Mr. Huang Ape, the general, is very selfless to give up, and the general's dormitory that he is allowed to apply for within his personal authority, that is, the suite that is now full of all kinds of miscellaneous items in my family.
Mr. Huang Ape said that although he had a private house in Marlingford, he worked overtime and was so tired that he would sleep in the dormitory of the headquarters if he didn't want to leave.
I thought about it for a while, and then I had an epiphany:
Other words... I occupied the Admiral's personal quarters ?!
What about the cheat! Before I could be frightened, my hair stood on end, and the yellow ape general seemed to know everything, showing a high (treacherous) wind (different) bright (yin) and (dangerous) smile.
He said, 'A man who is really in love with a woman doesn't care about any groundless gossip, and Anna doesn't have to worry.' ’
The admiral Yellow Ape, who is in charge of the Navy Science Department, is bright and righteous and awe-inspiring, and it is more and more indecent and dark for the small people in our city.
What else can I say? There is simply no second way to go except to be grateful.
If there is any objection, it is that I am self-inflicted and self-absorbed, so what is 'living in the personal dormitory of the Yellow Ape General', 'The Yellow Ape General came forward to transfer work for personal gain', this! Some! All! Be! The protection regime of the Navy!
…………
The Supreme Commander of the Ministry of Science is not very eloquent, but the reasons are very convincing.
Nana.
My bear child...
Of course, I can't be so stubborn that my children worry because of my unrealistic brains and rumors that I can ignore, so ah~ I just stayed cheeky and started going to work by the way.
I knew that something must have happened when I was asleep that night, and Nana would not say, and I would not ask about it, but even if I didn't ask, how could my mother not know about the changes in my child?
If she hadn't been scared, how could Nana become more and more bearish, and she would have changed her anger and tried to be strong.
It is estimated that there is still a 'credit' of the general Yellow Ape here, that man put his plan on the bright side, and Jiang Taigong fished like a wisher to take the bait, even if it was uncomfortable, I couldn't stop it.
… Nor is it necessary.
General Yellow Ape, although I don't know about the reality here, in the two-dimensional plot I watched a long time ago... Hehehe~
Even if you don't remember those vague plots for a long time, in the more than ten years in Marlingford, the high-level of the Navy Headquarters, the unattainable generals of us ordinary people, the deeds that have been spread abroad are like thunder.
Although the rumors are hard to distinguish, according to my old impression, it can be more or less... Uh~ Pick out something close to the real thing.
Pheasant, casual on the surface and tough on the inside.
Red Inu, paranoid and strict, strict with others, and even stricter with himself.
The only one who is unpredictable is the yellow ape.
At the beginning of the era of the pirates, it became famous, and now it is the highest combat power of the world government, the three major admirals, and an important weight on the balance of the situation.
For the navy, one of the forces in the balance of the world situation, the hawks led by the Akainu are the most lethal, the volcanic lava destroys a qiē, sometimes hurts others and hurts themselves, and the pheasant is a relatively mild successor, and the ice age freezes everything, but it is not extinguished.
And the yellow ape... When I first watched the plot, I was most impressed by him because he... It is impossible for people to figure it out, and it seems to be unprincipled and some of the actions are inexplicable, but it always gives people a strange feeling.
Everything is under control, condescending to all beings.
…………
It doesn't feel good to call people look like ants, but... As a small citizen, I need to be self-aware.
A man like the general Yellow Ape, you can basically stop playing scheming with him, anyway, I won't be bored with myself.
As long as this 'very protective of his subordinates' is not for the sake of coaxing the bear child Nana from my mother's 'little baby' into his 'little liver', then it doesn't matter.
Uh~Okay~ I admit that I am too distributed, and my brain hole is turned into honeycomb coal.
The general yellow ape should... Not... I don't know how shameful... That kind of Cheng dù... Right?
Anyway, as long as there is no strange purpose to spur my Nana to work hard, I can make a background with peace of mind.
Becoming stronger is not a bad thing after all.
…………
After accepting the arrangement, life was slightly turbulent, and soon recovered.
New job, new home, new environment, and then new troubles.
The headquarters of the Naval Academy, the full name of [World Naval Academy Headquarters Cadet Academy], is very tongue-twisting.
The world's naval academies are collectively referred to as colleges at all levels, starting from naval cadet academies, non-commissioned officer cadet academies, professional and technical colleges, and naval institutions of higher learning, which are a complete system from the selection and training of outstanding talents to generals.
In the past 20 years, the war has not stopped, human life is expensive and ordinary consumables, and the current well-known generals of the naval camp have crawled out of the pile of dead people one by one, and the military ranks embroidered on the epaulettes are desperate for their lives, and there are very few serious professional backgrounds.
However, this does not mean that the Navy does not pay attention to the training of the new generation, in fact, the attention and nervousness of the Navy camp to the successor sometimes even exceeds the attention of a certain part of the pirates.
The military academy in Malinford is a junior cadet academy of the Naval Academy, and the students in it are considered excellent seedlings.
Some are recruits from various bases who are recommended to enter, some are children from the towns of Malinford Island, and a small number of... It is the descendant of the relatives of the generals.
Children born in the town of Malinford Island, near the water~ enter the military academy, and if they are not qualified, they will soon be eliminated.
And then the waves washed into the sand, and the rest of the elite reservists ... Each has its own future, and it is working hard for each other.
Putting aside other people's affairs, I want to talk about myself, working in the medical department of a military academy, obviously receiving special care, and getting along with new colleagues is naturally delicate.
The military academy medical room has a school doctor and two assistants, which are subordinate to the establishment of the naval medical unit, but my personnel resume is hung in the Navy Science Department (supernumerary personnel), and it has been half a month since I officially went to work.
On the bright side, it saves me the embarrassment of social disorder, and on the other hand, it also leads me to feel isolated.
Of course, this changed two days ago, because my original boss, Caroline Nurse of the Navy Headquarters Hospital, talked to the school doctor, and the two were said to be alumni in the past, and the first time they entered the Navy Headquarters, I still used the excuse of helping Caroline return the books to touch Nana.
Later, various accidents, the book called Dr. Stokes back.
The school doctor and the head nurse talked on the phone, and by the way, I was arrested, and it was regarded as a third party (school doctor) and the former boss to make various safety reports, because the 'military secret' director had no news, and the head nurse said that he was very worried.
At the end of the call, the school doctor looked at him with a rather strange look for a while, but he didn't say anything, but his attitude became less weird.
I wondered if the head nurse might... Tell me a little bit about my various withdrawn and fearful of life and death characteristics, right?
In short, in the Navy Headquarters Hospital for more than ten years, a group of old colleagues know that I am such a one, from head to toe from the inside to the outside, and I have no qualifications to be someone else's mistress at all.
looks ordinary, doesn't know how to communicate, has a poisonous mouth, and likes to stay at home, and none of them can handle it.
What is being passed down in private these days is definitely a misunderstanding.
…………
A little relaxation with my new colleagues,Let my melancholy mood be soothed a little,Although I can ignore it and not explain,But,If there is a real weird snoop since moving into a new home,It's really made me very uncomfortable with the rabbit dynasty who was born and kept to himself.。
………… Dividing line ............
Entering the medical department of the Naval Academy, in fact... After deducting all kinds of external factors, the rest is actually an ordinary day.
Every day from 9 to 5, I go to and from work, and then time is like a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return.
…………
Today... It's also a day that is almost gone.
Outside the window, he hid in the treetops, and began to scream endlessly in the morning, and was even more hoarse as the afternoon approached the evening, and the weather became more and more hot.
I held my eyelids that wanted to stick to them, and I couldn't hold back the feeling of drowsiness, in the infirmary of the Naval Academy, there were fewer people than the Navy's hospital, which was too busy to touch the ground, and I could swatt flies to kill time.
Because it is an elite reserve ~ strengthen physical fitness, cultural courses, various tactical teaching... These are basically not causally related to accidental injuries, and the instructors are paying attention~
The school doctors and assistants often had nothing to do to apply to go back to the medical unit to look for abuse, and after half a month of new jobs, I became the only person to stay behind to prevent accidents for almost ten days.
It's not too idle to grow hair, because the cadets... Very... Have an exploratory spirit.
No, someone knocked on the door energetically.
…………
Silently cheered up, and turned around... There were three young people by the door of the open medical room, and the leader smiled very coquettishly, "Miss Nurse~" raised his hand and waved it in a small arc, looking suave, "I'm bothering you again~"
Standing up expressionlessly, I stared at the three fish rushing in, and the corners of my eyes twitched slightly.
Sure enough, it was 'again', yesterday, the day before yesterday, plus today, three faces appeared in a row.
Since the official start of work, the incidence of 'accidents' among military cadets has reached a small peak, and there are always young people who come to the medical department for unbelievable reasons such as 'headaches', 'foot pain's, 'fragile nerves', and so on.
Like a school of migratory salmon, one after the other.
For such a warm atmosphere, I personally express my understanding, the three years of sow racing in the army ~ not to mention that the ratio of men and women in Malinford was originally out of balance.
But!
Half a month's buffer was enough to restore hormonal balance, and I, a married woman with a small chest and a thick waist, quickly diverted the attention of the disappointed crowd.
But!
At this moment, three little young...
Quietly waiting to enter the door of the three students, the person who was humming in the middle was lying on the treatment bed, I walked over and whispered, "Classmate, what's wrong with you?" ”
In recent days, these three have been very diligent in coming to the door, and there are various reasons, I think... The intention is quite subtle.
"I don't know~" The young man who seemed to be the leader of the three people had a sad face, and sat on the edge of the bed with a big thorn, "Miss Nurse checks it~ He looks very bad~"
"Of course." Raising my hand to take out the mask from my pocket and put it on, I took a few steps forward, and then I found the guy lying on his cheek with his hand... There is something in the eyes... Up to no good.
"'Again' toothache?" After thinking about it, I swung back to my desk, opened the drawer, picked up the tools I had prepared, and turned around.
…………
The three young faces had a bit of a stuck, and their eyes were staring at me together... hands.
After a moment of silence, the young man at the head pointed to the object in my hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Miss Nurse... What are you holding? ”
"Tooth extraction tools." Approaching with a straight face, I explained in a soft voice, "Don't worry, it doesn't hurt." With Nightingale's compassion, he raised the vice in his hand, "Just a moment." ”
Go down with a pair of pincers, and let it never come to chance, lest the three of you always talk with mouths full of teeth.
"Wait!" The young man sitting on the edge of the bed spoke loudly.
I stopped, and smiled at a 30-degree shadow behind my mask.
Looking at the tools in my hand, and then at me, the three young people were suddenly very sincere, "Ah~ What's that... When I saw Miss Nurse, I was suddenly full of energy~"
"Yes, yes~"
"Eh~My teeth suddenly don't hurt anymore~"
Lying on the bed jumped up and didn't hum and chirp, sitting on the edge of the bed and standing up with his legs crossed was not dignified, and he didn't look at the excitement anymore when he crossed his arms and hands, and the three of them didn't even have to look at each other and walked out quickly, "Miss nurse, goodbye!" ”
I stood in place, slowly took off my mask to avoid sweating and eczema, and by the way, I held the vice with the other hand and smiled gently, hehehe~
It wouldn't have been so simple and rude, even if these three young people always came to the door only when I was left alone, as a medical staff, I should have been as warm as spring, and I would have treated patients who increased the performance of the medical room.
But!
Unfortunately, these three little ghosts who exude a sense of superiority of the second generation of the army are the elite of the second-year students, and the one at the head is the leader of the entire second-year.
What's even more unfortunate is that my bear child Nana is also in the second year of military school this year.
And then... Hehehe~
Some time ago, one night together, Nana said that she let a classmate in the school who had strong hands-on skills despise, and it was specifically pointed out that the second-grade leader was very, very... affirmed her 'achievements' that dragged her feet.
Although no one at the military school knows that I am Nana's mother, but... As a parent, isn't it normal to be biased to the squeaky nest and try to take revenge?
The stinky boys who bullied my Nana... There is simply a way in heaven that you don't take, (#"').
…………
The second-grade elites, the second-generation military members rushed out of the smoke, as fast as a vicious dog behind them.
Seeing the backs of the three students disappear, I then shifted my gaze a few degrees, and silently stood by the door, Mr. School Doctor, who had just stood there a few minutes ago.
Apparently Mr. school doctor who came back from the medical department... The expression was very subtle, and her eyes stared at the vice in my hand in a daze, and after a while, she opened her mouth and said weakly, "Caroline... Sure enough, I taught you how to use a vice to extract teeth. ”
The embarrassed-looking school doctor was stunned for a while, then turned around and held his forehead with one hand, and walked with his hands and feet so that a gust of autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves behind him.
When even the school doctor left, I put the vice back into the drawer, and the corner of my eye twitched slightly.
Caroline Head Nurse... Actually, Mr. School Doctor thought about it.
Vices tooth extraction is really not a lineage of the nursing department of the Navy Headquarters Hospital, but a very clever misunderstanding.
In the beginning... The source is Nana.
My bear child listened to a lot of bedside stories when he was a child.,Because the memory is blurred~ The story I said was more or less entrained, and the plot of forgetting jì was filled in by me with the impressive details of the same culture.。
So, Nana, who was fooled into success, thought for a long time:
The correct version of the doctor and nurse is either her Stokes teacher's 'studying medicine to justifiably stab the enemy on the operating table in the future', or the Grim Reaper Guardian Captain Uno Hana of the Death Court who I call 'vice tooth extraction and hand sawing and knife cutting'.
Then one year, Nana was so obsessed with candy that she ate her teeth, and I took her to the pediatrics, and it turned out to...
Nana covered her mouth and cried shyly, not letting Caroline, who was not the head nurse at the time, see her teeth.
Later, Caroline, who was a flower in the Navy Headquarters Hospital, scared away countless suitors with a tooth-extracting vice, and finally made her current husband bold to marry home.
Then, just looking at the reaction of Mr. School Doctor... I can't help but wonder if Mr. School Doctor was also scared back then.
It's a misunderstood accident, = ̄ω ̄=.
…………
After that, no one bothered me until the end of the day.
As the sun waned, the disturbing quiet cicada chirp also subsided, and I politely said goodbye to Mr. Doctor, and I came out of the Navy Military Academy as usual, walked through the office area, and returned... General's dormitory.
After changing my clothes, I went to the kitchen, planning to fill my stomach with something casually, and then... It's time to get out of the door.
Today I made an appointment, a girl from the nursing department of the Navy Headquarters Hospital will get married in a few days, and Caroline told me early that a vote of women will have a farewell bachelorette party tonight.
I don't like to go out, but... Melanie, the bride-to-be, and I have a little friendship, working together for nearly six years, no girlfriend friendship, and a little colleague.
Besides, after the marriage leave, Melanie will be transferred to another place with her new husband, and she doesn't know if there will be a chance to meet.
Even if I die in the house, I have to meet at night, and a few women get together to have fun~
The other thing is, in fact, I'm in a panic.
After moving, Nana came back less often, and she was always stranded in the Ministry of Science for various reasons.
The Admiral Yellow Ape is a... Nasty man.
I admit that I was biased, and although the man seemed to be very optimistic about my bear child and was raising her without a trace, I still hated it.
The purpose of his actions was undisguised, and even if he didn't say it explicitly, it still made it clear to me that he... Little by little, I am leading my child into a new world.
When children grow up, they will always leave their parents, and I know that it is inevitable, but when I really face it, I am still extremely disappointed.
Nana had grown up, and the little child was stumbling high into the air when I was not ready to spread its wings.
I could only watch quietly, wanting to reach out to protect her, but I was worried that too much doting would make her weak.
No one can be by the side of another person forever, especially children, I am now impenetrable, and when I die in the future, who will take over and protect her without complaint?
I know I should let go a little bit at this point, but...
Still annoying!
…………
Absentmindedly filled his stomach and went to the shower again.
Finally, I wrapped myself in a yukata and went back to the bedroom and began to change into my outdoor clothes.
The one-bedroom suite, the layout is different from the original home, and it is also different from Nana's dormitory, it is a split-level space, with a small hall and kitchen downstairs, and a bedroom and bathroom upstairs.
Floor-to-ceiling windows open onto the terrace and offer a wide view of the area.
It was nearly seven o'clock when the twilight was a little dim, and there was no light on in the bedroom, so I stood on the edge of the bed, raised my hand to untie my bathrobe, and thought about the trivialities that I had and didn't have.
Compared to other areas of the Navy Headquarters, the general's dormitory is extremely deserted.
The generals have their own private residences, and the occupancy rate of the townhouses here is pitiful, probably because of my regular 9-to-5 schedule, and the high-level executives who are busy and idle and spend all day drinking.
Since I moved in, I basically haven't met anyone else, but every time I pass the guò sentry, or meet a patrol on the road, and check the pass, the eyes of those soldiers are ah~
I guess they have no less than 10 kinds of ups and downs in their minds.
Otherwise, how could the second-generation elites of the military academy run to the medical room without anything? I want to know that they heard about it in a small area.
A few imps didn't hide their eyes.
Not out of instinctive interest, but a casual teasing.
…………
After changing into a close-fitting coat, I shook off my shirt and put it on, and I was starting to button it, when I suddenly felt for some reason... Air...
As soon as my subordinates stopped, I turned my head to look at the wall facing the bed on the side of the bedroom———— silently, a golden red flower appeared in the center of the pink and white wall, and then for a moment... The temperature rises sharply.
A large hole melted in the center of a wall, and the golden-red liquid licked through the masonry, which collapsed like wax and then melted into a gaseous state.
The quaint scorched, indescribable taste of the quarry.
Behind the twisted steaming air, a burly figure stood outside a wall.
Behind that was the next bedroom, the light was on, and the man with his back to the light couldn't see it clearly, but his arm was slightly raised, and the leather black gloves had not yet recovered the elementalization.
I stiffened, and I felt my heart almost choke in my throat.
The wall connecting the two collapsed and melted at a speed that caught people off guard, and the lights at the other end poured in.
The smoke quickly dispersed as the space expanded, the vision became clear, and my eyes widened:
The man's upper body is fruitful, a pair of hands wearing black leather gloves that have not been taken off, burly muscles, half of his chest tattooed with fallen cherry blossoms, and a pair of eyes hidden in the dark... If there is a real look... There is a gratuitous frightening...
…………
"Eh~ I forgot to say, during the time you were out, General Polusalino's dormitory is now living in ————"
Footsteps came from behind the man, and after a pause, a person turned out, "It seems to be late." ”
The man with a scar on his face, his eyes were blazing, and his tone seemed to be smiling, "This lady is a new neighbor, not a suspicious person, General Sakasky." ”
Three people, all in one mess.
After a long pause, I looked down at the remaining remnants of the entire wall that had been dissolved by the magma, and then my eyes rose a little and I looked at the two strange men next door.
Long... Bathed in the sight of two wrongs, I heard the taut thread of reason in my head snap open.
"Roll !!"
General? The general is amazing?!
Can the general vaporize the wall with just a pair of trousers and look at the fat woman next door who only wears a corset?
Can a general be a hooligan!
