Troy still paid the Admiral's request for the deposit, which was the cup of coffee.

"Wouldn't it seem too cheap to trade human life for just a cup of coffee?"

Veneto has lost count of how many cups of coffee he drank tonight, but by consuming a lot of caffeine and inducing, he was able to speed up his thinking.

She doesn't know if this counts as her hidden passivity as a ship's mother, but she has often been teased by her sister for being a 'battleship powered by coffee', which is somewhat similar to a certain 'milk-driven road base' in the Deep Sea Town.

But whenever Veneto had a problem that bothered her, she would always use coffee to lift her spirits... Just like today, from the moment she spoke to Dr. Troy, she didn't stop picking up her coffee cup.

"Sister, do you mean that coffee is too cheap compared to human life, or is coffee too cheap?"

The Admiral sat on a couch in Veneto's office, and this meeting was strictly a very serious business meeting, and the two of the Admiral's customers, Veneto and Troy, were present...

However, the Admiral did not show the posture of a businessman, but showed himself as a child, such as wrapped in a blanket brought by Yamato, sitting curled up on the sofa with a lethargic expression.

"Of course it's coffee, the lives of those guys are far less than this cup of coffee in my eyes!"

This is the answer that the Admiral expected, and anyone who is a threat to her family will be dealt with mercilessly by Veneto if he has the opportunity.

The value of some people in her eyes may not really be as important as such a cup of coffee.

"So... Didn't I know that a life was wasted? ”

The Admiral put down the cup in his hand and yawned... The anti-fatigue effect of coffee has no effect on Admiral. The feeling of exhaustion always surrounds the Admiral.

"Speaking of which, Dr. Troy... What time is the appointment time to meet the other person, and it doesn't matter if I take a nap before that, right? ”

When the child gets to ten o'clock, he will go to bed for me!

Troy had wanted to say this to the Admiral for a long time, and she looked at the Admiral, who was sitting on the sofa wrapped in a blanket, and then at the hanging clock leaning against the wall, on which the time showed exactly ten o'clock in the evening.

Getting sleepy so early really made Troy still doubt the Admiral's true age! What the intelligence says about the advanced age of thirty years is fake, right? No matter how you look at it, this guy's age is comparable to those destroyers!

Both in the way of behavior and appearance.

"In the wee hours of the morning. The location is on the outskirts of the city of Palermo. ”

Spit and complain, Troy will still explain the matter of the Admiral one by one, and in the next few hours, her life safety can only be protected by the Admiral.

"Two hours to go..."

The reason why it was agreed so late was that the other party should be preparing something, mobilizing people or setting traps, but these were not things that the Admiral had to worry about.

Any conspiracy trap will be shattered to pieces in the face of a crushing power disparity.

All the Admiral had to do was wait quietly for the dawn of the morning.

"Does the Admiral want to get some sleep first?"

Yamato learned about the Admiral's physical condition from Bismarck. Immediately rushed to Veneto's office.

This blanket was taken out of the ship's space by Yamato, with Yamato's body fragrance on it, and smelling this reassuring fragrance made the Admiral's sleepiness even more obvious.

"It's okay, two hours can still last, is the electricity still in the canal?"

The Admiral didn't want to go into a deep sleep, and every time he had recently fallen into a deep sleep, his blood had materialized into consciousness. will always come out and deliberately taunt the Admiral, obviously when the central Qiji invaded the Admiral's spiritual world. She had always taken a careless attitude towards the Admiral.

In addition to this, Den's physical condition made the Admiral a little concerned.

"Hmm... The injuries she suffered were not even slightly broken, but it took two hours to repair. ”

After that attack, Yamato returned to the Palermo town guard to enter the canal, and the injury to Denki was only a slight abrasion on his arm, but after entering the canal chamber. The time shown to be two hours and thirty-seven minutes long is shown.

The injury that is less than a small break takes more than two hours to repair, which is a malfunction in the canal cabin no matter how you look at it.

However, after changing the electricity for several canal cabins, the displayed time was still more than two hours, which made Yamato have to believe that the data displayed by the canal cabins was real.

More than two hours of drain time. Even if it is a ship girl with a training level of more than 100, it will have to be damaged by the mid-break level, so it may take such a long time to repair.

It takes two hours for Den's injuries to be broken even slightly, which can only happen to battleship mothers and aircraft carrier mothers.

Normally, Yamato suffered a big break-level injury, and it would definitely take more than twelve hours to enter the canal.

"The time of entering the canal of the super battleship class ... Because of the reason for the deep-sea roof that lodged in the electric body? No... No reason. ”

The influence of that deep-sea roost on electricity only acts on the spirit of electricity, and the essence of the electric body is still a destroyer.

So why does the fix take so long?

"What about high-speed repair tools? Did you use a high-speed repair tool? ”

No matter how long the drain time is, it is only a bucket problem...... Veneto's buckets can be used in tens of thousands of units, and she shouldn't mind the Admiral borrowing one.

"High-speed repair tool... There is no way to quickly repair Den's injuries. ”

When Veneto learned that Denki was injured, he generously said, "Please feel free to use the resources you can use", and Yamato also tried to repair Denki's wound with a high-speed repair tool.

But... To Yamato's surprise... In the past, the high-speed repair tool equivalent to the second life of the ship's mother had no effect this time.

"There's no way to fix it quickly?"

The news swept away the drowsiness of the Admiral's body in an instant, and his eyes were fixed on Troy's eyes.

“……”

This guy... Are there two personalities?

Troy, who suddenly looked at the Admiral, felt a chill and tremble all over his body, and the Admiral now gave Troy a feeling of extreme danger, being attacked by wolves... No... Something more dangerous gives the feeling of being targeted!

If you don't give him a satisfactory answer, this dangerous monster may eat itself at any time, right?

This is completely different from the feeling of the Admiral curled up on the couch just now, like some cute little animal!

Either way, Troy was ready to confess everything, and she adjusted her breathing, which had become a little messy from nervousness.

"Dr. Troy, in addition to the virus that made the ship mother deep into the sea, did you develop another virus?"

The Admiral questioned Troy and silently warned Troy of the cost of lying.

"The virus codenamed 'trauma', the scientific name and composition I don't think you're interested in."

Troy searched for some of the memories that had been sealed in his mind.

"The original plan was to block the super resilience of the ship mother, so that the ship mother could not recover through the canal, and before I left that research organization, this project was originally only in the research and development stage."

"Now... Already in the hands-on phase? So, Dr. Troy, can you make an antidote to this thing? ”

Faced with the Admiral's question, Troy shook his head decisively.

"I wasn't the one who led the development of the 'trauma' project, there was another team that was just responsible for providing some constructive advice."

"Well... I see, it looks like we're going to be busy for a while. (To be continued.) )
