"Let's talk about it first, even if wo-chan used to be your ship's wife, I won't give it back to you, even if your father comes to me." Ti Du said with a smile on his face.

"Well, even if wo-chan used to be my father's ship's mother, but now she's a deep-sea shipmother." In order to clear her suspicion, Charlotte hurriedly waved her hand.

"Oh, men are really all abandoned from the beginning." Tidu looked at Charlotte with ill-intentioned eyes.

Charlotte, who was stared at by Tidu, had a feeling that her ship's favorability was still declining, and quickly changed the topic and said: "And wo-chan is not your ship's mother now, she is now Arden's ship's mother, even if my father comes over, he is looking for her." ”

"The ship's mother's mother, shouldn't it be the admiral's mother? Not to mention, Arden was summoned from the builder by me. Tidu said unashamedly.

"Ahem......" Arden said disagreeing with the sentence.

"Even if Arden thinks so, wo-chan won't agree." Charlotte said after glancing at wo-chan.

"What are you afraid of, isn't it enough aluminum tubes? When I have a chance to go back to the Central Academy, I will raise my little coffers, and raise Jujo...... Oh no, Gojo wo-chan should be fine. ”

It seems that the attribute of wo sauce's big stomach king has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even Ti who started the small treasury does not dare to boast of Haikou.

"Ahem, ahem......," Arden continued, disagreeing.

“wo？” Hearing the words "Aluminum tube is enough", the Essex version of wo sauce looked at Tidu, then at Arden, and continued to concentrate on eating the aluminum bar in his hand.

While Master Charlotte and Ti were both discussing wo-chan, no one noticed that the maid chief put his hand on the headset in his left ear.

Thousands of kilometers away, in the office of the Admiral of the No. 233 Town Guard Mansion, Charlotte's father lying on the chair, Admiral Xia Yuantang of the Eastern Pacific Theater of Operations, also held a pair of headphones, staring at the spider that was nesting in the corner of the ceiling with eyes that seemed to be nostalgic and regretful.

After a long silence for the "Essex ......", General Xia Yuantang re-lit the cigar that had been extinguished, took a deep breath, and exhaled a cloud of strangely shaped smoke and said.

Intoxicated by the spiced cigar, the nostalgic eyes gradually became intoxicated, and a little sparkle appeared in the eyes of this general, who has always shown a fierce style.

"Can't you forget it after all?" Xia Yuantang, who had snuffed out his cigar after taking a sip, opened the drawer at the bottom of his desk and found a key from a pile of messy things, a key that could not hide the erosion of time even if it was well preserved.

After looking at the key for a while, Xia Yuantang walked from the desk to his bust painting, opened his painting, and saw the safe door that had been opened behind him and said with a wry smile: "I just said that there is no use for hiding here, what are those Nizi doing, looking for things is a top stick." ”

After looking through the contents of the safe, General Xia Yuantang, who didn't find any important documents missing, stuffed these things back into the safe, and then held both sides of the safe with his hands, and pulled hard, and the safe used to store various important data documents was directly pulled out.

Another safe hidden underneath this safe is revealed.

"So, hiding things, ginger is still old and spicy." Seeing that the few mechanisms he had reserved were not passive, he nodded with a little satisfaction and used the key he had just found to open the hidden safe door.

Rows of medals, dozens of shimmering rings, a folded saber, a worn-out Admiral's hat, and a yellowed picture frame were placed in the safe, the door facing up.

Xia Yuantang's eyes passed by the medals, glanced at the rings, smiled at the folded saber and the worn-out admiral's hat, and pulled the yellowed picture frame out of it.

Xia Yuantang, who was holding the photo frame as if he was holding some treasure, sat back on his admiral chair, as if he was caressing his beloved, caressing the photo frame that had been some years old.

In the frame is a photo that has become very confused with color due to time.

In the photo, a young admiral who looks like Charlotte is surrounded by a bunch of various aircraft carrier mothers with a wry smile on his face.

The girls of the aircraft carriers did not forget to stuff their mouths with aluminum strips of various flavors while huddling their young admirals for photos.

At the bottom of this photo, in the handwriting that you can know that the writer is in a good mood at a glance, it reads, "Warm (crossed out) grand (crossed out) In short, it is to celebrate the successful killing of the No. 233 Town Guard Mansion 5-5 to commemorate the family photo (crossed out)"

In the photo, the Essex shipwreck who was squeezed into the corner is using an electric welding torch to engrave the fifth orthography on her ship's equipment.

Looking at Essex, who always wants others to see his hard work, the scenes of the past echoed in Xia Yuantang's mind.

"Essex is ready, just waiting for your orders, Lord Commander, let's reclaim the lost glory of the nations!"

"Hey, are they all aircraft carriers? Will there not be enough aluminum? ”

"I'll admit that the amount of food is a bit large, but my combat effectiveness is also very high."

"Although the record is not as good as the predecessors, Essex will always strive to surpass the predecessors."

"Admiral, I've sunk a hundred ships in the deep sea, shouldn't I be awarded a big medal?"

"Compared to medals, it's better to issue aluminum strips, Admiral, you're amazing."

"Well, Admiral, can I marry you?"

"Ah, I don't mean anything else, I think it's the best to meet the Admiral with enough aluminum tubes, and if you don't catch it, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."

"Really? Just sink 250 ships? Wait, why are there two hundred and fifty ships, this number is so strange, no matter what, I have to find a way to remember my exploits. ”

"Admiral! There's still one left, and we're going to have 250 of them! Don't forget what you promised. ”、

…………

"Honey, are you missing those kids again?" Helena, who didn't know when she appeared next to Xia Yuantang, gently put her hand on her husband's hand holding the photo frame.

"I thought I had Charlotte...... Unexpectedly, I still can't let it go. Xia Yuantang, who didn't care about Helena's appearance, sighed and said.

"In that war years, no matter what the outcome was, we should be aware. Being recognized by you is already the happiest thing in our lives. Helena said comfortingly.

"I hope they will forgive me." For Xia Yuantang, that incident was a mistake worth remembering for a lifetime.

"Dying for the Admiral is our destiny, and I don't think they will blame you."

"Even if they become the deep sea?" Xia Yuantang suddenly spoke.

“？”
