"So Bismarck, you are going to ...... Join us in the Castle Guard? Jiqi looked at the girl with a serious face, hesitated for a while and asked. After all, the other party's willingness to stay here is a clear statement, if he doesn't seize this opportunity, then it will really be impossible in the future.

"Yes," Bismarck nodded in affirmation, not denying his thoughts. "Because I think the Admiral is the commander I'm looking for, I'd like to be able to stay in the Town Guard Mansion for a while before making a decision on whether to stay or not."

"My decision was the same as that of the instructor." Nelson replied that she was very interested in choosing an admiral, so she decided to wait and see for a while before making a decision.

"Sister, why are you the same as the instructor." Rodney pursed his lips and looked helplessly at his sister, who had a serious face.

Her first impression of Jiqi was very good, and almost all of them had the idea of making a decision immediately, but she didn't expect that her sister and Instructor Bismarck would decide to wait and see, so she had to hold back the throbbing in her heart and wait.

"It's okay, I know that it's a very important thing for the ship's mother to choose the admiral." Jiqi smiled to show understanding. Once the ship mother and the admiral sign a contract, it is almost a lifelong event, and it has to be carefully considered.

"It's good that the commander understands." Bismarck nodded, a faint smile on his face that was almost dominated by indifference. "So, I wonder what the Commander thinks about the war?"

"War?" Jiqi was stunned, he didn't expect Bismarck to ask such a question. He thought about it seriously and gave his own answer.

"For the words of war, to be honest, as written in those textbooks, it is a combination of blood and tears. Anyone who wants to win a war will always have something to lose and something to lose. ”

"So what does the commander think of this war weapon?" Bismarck then asked, saying that her first answer to Jiqi could only give a passing grade, which was not excellent.

"Ship mother? Weapons of war? Jiqi frowned, not agreeing with the other party's indifferent statement. I don't think the ship girls are the weapons in your mouth, but the same existence as humans, some have flesh and emotions, and will cry and laugh like people, the only difference is that they are the embodiment of the will of the ship, and have more powerful power, so sometimes I think they are even more important than the admiral himself. ”

Although one of the things he learned in the enterprise academy is so clear that when his life and the ship's mother are threatened at the same time, the best choice is to abandon the ship's mother and let himself survive, because the meaning of the admiral's existence is far more than the ship's mother. But in Jiqi's view, there is no difference between a captain and a ship girl, and sometimes a strong ship girl is more important than a weak one.

"So when the commander thinks that sacrifices must be made on the battlefield, does he choose a strong scoring ship or a weak admiral?" She stared at Jiqi in a daze, her red eyes with a blood-like weight.

She has seen countless admirals ruthlessly and mercilessly abandon their ship mothers, sometimes she obviously has no strength to protect them, but she still has to follow the ship girls to sea together, and the final result is that the ship mother makes a senseless sacrifice to protect the admiral who is hiding behind her on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, it is good to have courage, but it is the greatest stupidity to let others pay for him without measuring his own strength.

"Weak Admiral? Powerful ship mother? Jiqi looked at the silence of the girl whose face gradually became cold, and thought for a long time before slowly speaking. I don't know who to choose, because both are the same existence in my mind, like weights placed on both sides of the scale. The admiral has the meaning of existence only when he has the ship's mother, and the ship's mother's words will have a home with the admiral. ”

"Then why would the Admiral choose to sacrifice himself in exchange for the ship's mother when facing the deep sea, according to the commander, aren't the two the same existence?" Bismarck was aggressive. She had heard the avant-garde recount the scene at that time, this fool-like fool made a decision without the slightest hesitation, and the two were not at all equal existence, as he himself said.

"Although they are the same existence, but one person's sacrifice can be exchanged for the survival of so many people, and everyone knows how to choose." Jiqi scratched his head and laughed, he didn't think too much about it at the time, he just felt that sacrificing himself alone could be exchanged for everyone, and such a decision was worth it. "It's like a simple math problem, where sacrificing yourself is the right thing to do."

"But no one will want to bury themselves like this, everyone will hesitate, they will not want to." Bismarck whispered. Although she also knew that the best choice at that time was what Ji Qi said, no admiral would die for the weapons in their hearts, which was a fact that countless bloody realities had made her know.

"They are them, but at least I won't, and even if there is no choice, I don't want to be a deserter on the battlefield, because spiritual condemnation is more painful than death." Ji Qi sighed and replied, "Although when we were in the academy, the mentor always told us that you are men who will become admirals in the future, and you must learn to protect yourself, even if you abandon your marriage ship, you must survive. We all promised the teacher that we would obey him. But it wasn't until I met the first shipwreck in my life that I realized that sometimes I can really only talk about it, and when it comes to making a choice, I will still forget the dogma in the textbook and make the choice I want the most in my heart. ”

"Commander, you're stupid." Rodney snorted in admiration, a glint of reverence in his blue eyes under his blonde hair.

"Indeed, Lexington says that about me a lot." Jiqi smiled and nodded, "But I just know that if you make a judgment against your will from the very beginning, you will become more and more numb later, and more and more timid like a coward, for fear that the coming death will come to you." ”

"So the commander was reluctant to back down from the very beginning?" Bismarck asked.

"It's not that I don't want to, but I just feel that blindly avoiding it is not the way, and blindly letting my ship's mother bear everything is not what I should do. As an admiral, the first thing is to be responsible for their own ship girls, if when they step on the battlefield, when they go to face those tides of deep sea, they see not the admiral standing by their side to give encouragement, but a fleeing back, I don't think anyone wants to continue to fight for this deserter. He paused and continued.

"As Packa, the former avant-garde assistant told me, when others are faced with danger, they choose to keep silent, and finally when the danger befalls them, they don't complain for you at all."

"Is that why the commander didn't want to give in the first place? I don't want to give up even if I die in battle. Bismarck looked at him and remembered the story that the avant-garde had told her, the tragedy of a newly appointed admiral who was brutally murdered by the deep sea, and his ship's wife could only hold his corpse and weep bitterly, a fool who chose the most undesirable option when faced with a death choice.

Perhaps it is because of his unwillingness to give up that so many ship girls are willing to do anything for him. She recalls the avant-garde who wept on the stormy sea that night, and the ship's wife who worked hard to save her admiral, a sight she had never seen in any other town's guard's mansion. It's like a warm home, not some other room shrouded in indifference.

Ji Qi shook his head and smiled, he guessed that the avant-garde had told all his stories to the girl in military uniform in front of him, after all, she also hoped that Bismarck could become a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with her.

"That's just the stubbornness in my heart that I don't want to give up." He replied with a chuckle, his expression showing no fear of past death. "A poor boy with nothing suddenly has a family that can bring warmth, and nothing will be said to let the deep sea take her away." Jiqi's voice was soft, but it was as stubborn as a hard stone.

"Family?" Bismarck muttered quietly. "It turns out that the commander has always regarded the ship's mother as a family member who can't give up easily?"

"Isn't it? Eat together every day and go to sea together. You can cry together when you're sad, and laugh together when you're happy. Isn't this just a family member who has always been with you? Jiqi asked rhetorically, and his smile was full of sincerity. So Bismarck, do you have any other questions? ”

"There's no Commander." Bismarck smiled and nodded, the coldness on his face melted by the sun.

"I'm also a commander." Nelson replied.

"I, like my sister, am happy with the commander." Rodney said lively.

"Then you can stay here for a while, and don't rush to make a decision." Jiqi exhaled and smiled lightly. "After all, hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and this is a lifelong contract, I don't want you to make such a hasty decision."

Bismarck looked at the smiling young man in front of him and was stunned. She didn't expect that the other party didn't talk about signing a contract as soon as they came up, like other annoying admirals, but gave them full time and full choice.

Maybe he's the one he was meant to be. She turned to look at Nelson and Rodney, whose eyes were twinkling, and smiled at each other.

"Thank you, Commander, we'll think about it and give you an answer." Bismarck nodded in reply, his smile filled with warmth. The pair of white velvet cat ears on the girl's head also trembled slightly under the light, like a kitten that had found its owner, showing a cute expression of joy.
