The port is located in the southwest of Rongcheng and is an international large wharf.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, from time to time, ships with flutes sailed from afar, slowly docked beside the dock, and there were also ships spewing black from the big chimneys, cutting through the blue waves and leaving the port.

More than a dozen huge rust-covered containers are neatly laid out on the shore, waiting for workers to lift them onto the cargo ship with tall gantry cranes. In late autumn, when the temperature has dropped significantly, a group of stevedores still in short coats and shorts sweat and carry bags of heavy goods up and down, their bare arms with knotted muscles and dark skin. Groups of tourists dressed in various clothes, dragging luggage or pulling children, mingle with the bustling flow of people on the dock, and occasionally there are vendors pushing carts in the crowd to sell low-quality cigarettes, or peanuts and melon seeds and other small foods, in short, the huge port, a lively and noisy busy scene.

In a secluded part of the harbor near the docks, a long causeway made of reinforced concrete with a grayish-white surface extends from the shore to the sea. Lexington stood at the end of the causeway, facing the sea. The salty smell of the sea breeze blew the corners of her clothes, and also blew her long, flaxen-colored flowing hair.

For Saratoga, Lexington really doesn't know where to start. Although it is said that in this world, there are fewer ship mothers named Saratoga than the ship girls with the same name as her, but those people, as early as three years ago, Lexington visited them one by one, and the results are naturally needless to say. Sometimes I think about it, is it that everyone in the town guard mansion is like her, after the town guard mansion disappeared, they are all disheartened, and they don't want to integrate into society as a ship girl, but as an ordinary person, if that's the case, then it will be quite difficult for her to find Saratoga. But no matter how difficult it is, Lexington will not hesitate in the slightest, just because Saratoga is her sister and the only relative she cares about in this world.

As for finding all the people in the town guard mansion and rebuilding the town guard house. It's not that Lexington didn't think about it, but the Admiral is gone, and everyone's hearts have been scattered. Everyone gathered in the town guard mansion because of the relationship between the admiral, but now that there is no admiral as the backbone, who will listen to her, even if they find it, why should they go with her. It's true that she's a secretary ship, but she's not a commander after all, so it's unrealistic to rebuild the town guard mansion at all. Besides, after all, so much time has passed, who can guarantee that their hearts have not changed?

"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan. Waiting for idle changes but old people's hearts, but old people's hearts are changeable. ”

Having lived in Rongcheng for three years, Lexington naturally dabbled in the ancient Chinese culture of the Old World.

Nalan Xingde's words are poignant and mournful, although it is a bit unsuitable for the situation, but there is no such possibility! As the initial ship of the Admiral, even the heart of the fireflies has changed, let alone others.

Yesterday, when I first heard that the Fireflies had an Admiral, to be honest, Lexington's heart was not very comfortable. But think about it again, why can't there be any more admirals for fireflies. When I was in the town guard mansion, everyone got together because of the admiral, but what is the difference between this and not, the admiral has never appeared in the town guard mansion from beginning to end, and everyone doesn't even know what he looks like. Now that the Admiral is no longer there, and after such a long time, even according to the Asian saying, in order to keep the Admiral's filial piety, the three-year filial piety period has passed. Fireflies are pursuing happiness again, and it is only natural for them to find a commander for themselves. And what about the others? Perhaps they had forgotten about the Admiral and pursued their own happiness.

When the time comes, she just goes to the door, what to say to them. Maybe some people are married, or even have children. For example, when he was in the town guard mansion, he kept clamoring to marry someone and marry the admiral. And the Admiral never responded to South Dakota, but gave him the ring, who knows if South Dakota will have a bad heart. Now it's okay, the admiral is gone, and the little fat man who took revenge on the admiral has found a new admiral, and even gave birth to a baby. At that time, she said that kind of thing in front of a family of three, and she didn't know how embarrassing it would be. Therefore, rebuilding the town guard mansion is just a false proposition, and it is okay not to think about it.

It's just that she seems to remember that in the Admiral's office, there is a photo of the Admiral, but she doesn't know why, she just can't remember the Admiral's appearance.

But.......

Lexington frowned slightly, I don't know why, whenever I think of the Admiral, the figure of that young man will unexpectedly appear in my mind, it is the new Admiral of the Firefly.

Honestly, Lexington hated that feeling, but there was always something lingering about that figure.

"Sister, what are you looking at?" The voice was milky, and it was a four or five-year-old female doll who spoke, and behind her, there was a black-haired young man in his twenties.

"Look at the sea." Simply spit out two words, and Lexington quickly withdrew his gaze from behind him.

Although the little girl did not unfold the ship's uniform, Lexington still saw the identity of the other party's shipwreck at a glance, and naturally, the identity of the young man was about to come out.

"But sister, what's there to see about the sea?"

"You're too young to understand." For the ship's mother, the sea is naturally nothing to see. But maybe it's because it's a habit! I still remember that when she was in the town guard mansion, when she received the ring and wedding dress mailed by the admiral from afar, she would always take advantage of her leisure time every day to walk to the dock outside the town guard mansion, looking at the blue sea, hoping that a cruise ship carrying the admiral would appear at the junction of the sea and the sky in the distance. Because she is often like this, she should be teased by her sister Saratoga as a "Wangfu Stone". Even though she had left the town guard four years ago, this habit has not changed. Whenever she stands on the beach, she will unexpectedly face the sea and look at the horizon in the distance.

"That's it! Admiral, is what my sister said true? The little girl turned to the young man standing beside her.

"Yes! You're still too young, and there are some things you won't understand until you're older. As he spoke, the young man looked at Lexington, with a smile on his face that he thought was chic and handsome, and said, "Beautiful lady, don't mind if I stand here and enjoy this blue sea with you!" ”

"You feel free." As he spoke, Lexington moved to the side, closing the distance between him and the youth.
