Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

"Sister, Belfast and the commander are back~ They brought gifts for everyone, hurry up...sister?"

Bumblebee knocked on the door and was excitedly preparing to take York City to play with him, but saw that York City was not in the room.

After looking around, Bumblebee found York City on the balcony, staring at the moon in a daze.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh? Bumblebee...why did you come to my room so late? Is there a drill?"

"No, Belfast and the commander are back and are distributing gifts to everyone."

"Ah, that's it. Then let's go there quickly."

Early the next morning, Bumblebee, who had not slept much all night, hurried to York City's room.

York City had just finished dressing and was enjoying the breeze on the balcony when Bumblebee ran in on his own.

"Did you stay up late again last night?"

"Well, I didn't sleep all night. But it's all your fault, sister!"

"Blame me?"

York City frowned slightly, and Bumblebee quickly said:

"Because sister, you looked strange, so I was worried all night."

"Your training intensity is relatively high every day now, so you can't do it without a good rest."

York City was about to reprimand him again, so Bumblebee quickly changed the subject:

"But Sister York City, you look really strange. If you do this, even others will find something wrong with you sooner or later."

York City's words disappeared when she reached her lips. She sighed helplessly and turned her head away.

Bumblebee came to the balcony and looked around.

You don't have to worry about your conversation being overheard on the balcony, it's fairly safe.

"Sister, what happened to you? Are you still injured and haven't recovered? Were you injured at Musashi's place before?"

"I'm not injured, and my previous injuries have already recovered. I'm just a little worried."

Bumblebee frowned even more.

"What are you worried about?"

York City did not answer, but continued to ask:

"Bumblebee, what do you think of our current commander?"

"Even if you ask me what I think... we didn't have a commander before, I think it's pretty good?"

Bumblebee tilted his head and smiled freely:

"After all, we are our own ship girls. In the past, we just listened to what others were saying, and then watched those ship girls with commanders talking about the good and bad things about their respective commanders. Now that I have a commander, I always feel It’s a little different.”

"That's right."

York City sighed:

"Our commander is different."

Bumblebee turned his head sharply and lowered his voice and asked:

"Sister, are you worried about the commander?"

York City hesitated and nodded.

But regarding what she saw, she didn't want to worry about telling Bumblebee something that she didn't even understand at all.

After thinking for a moment, York City turned the topic to Yang Sikang.

"Commander, he is different from other commanders. I always feel that there is some... alienation between him and us."

"Alienation? Is there any?"

Bumblebee asked doubtfully, she thought for a moment and shook her head:

"No, right? Isn't the commander very enthusiastic? He also has good cooking skills and can modify the ship's outfit. He even taught me a lot about command. To be honest, I think the commander has hurt my self-confidence. I'm sorry, why is he better at commanding than me?"

The emotion in York City's heart was suddenly blocked. She looked helplessly at Bumblebee who was full of doubts, sighed and said:

"Bumblebee, our commander comes from another world. He has rich experience in commanding ship girls in battle before."

"Eh?! Is that so?! Wow, commander is so awesome, isn't he? What does a ship girl from another world look like?"

York City is even more helpless.

"I told you this when you first came here, right?"

"Well, that. Didn't I just come here at that time, so there were some things..."

"You, at least remember the things about the commander, right?"

"I, I know. It's just that I haven't always had a commander before, so it's normal not to have that kind of thought for a while."

With Bumblebee's interruption, the melancholy in York City's heart was relieved a lot.

Looking at Bumblebee as if he didn't care about anything, York City felt relaxed.

"So, sister, where did you talk about just now? Oh, by the way, alienation! But I really don't think the commander feels alienated from us?"

Bumblebee brought the topic back, and York City said:

"Although Commander, he did everything normally, but Bumblebee."

York City looked at Bumblebee and asked:

"Do you generally call Minneapolis by its full name all the time?"

"Well... you should use nicknames, right? After all, the full name is too long, and it would be a waste of time to communicate during the battle. And wouldn't it be a bit too polite to always use the full name?"

"Yeah, think about it, has the commander ever called Belfast or Minneapolis by a nickname? Or, for that matter, anyone else?"

Bumblebee was stunned for a moment and began to think back.

Although she has not been in the fleet for a long time, she is already familiar with the others in the fleet.

Her character is like this, and there is no such gloomy person in Yang Sikang's fleet.

The only one who is shy is Janus, but there is no problem with Jarvis and Javelin nearby.

But just thinking about it, Bumblebee was surprised to find that the commander had always called Minneapolis and Belfast by their full names.

That's it for everyone else. After all, if the full name is shorter, the nickname and the full name won't matter.

But the full names of Belfast and Minneapolis are relatively long, but Yang Sikang still calls them by their full names even during exercises and the like.

"It seems a little strange. But, maybe this is the habit of the commander's previous world?"

Belfast sighed helplessly:

"Belfast is the second ship girl built by the commander, but I asked before, and Belfast said that the commander only called her by her nickname once in a hurry, and other times she used her full name. "

York City shook his head and added:

"And most importantly, Belfast said the commander appeared to be deliberately restraining himself."

York City stood up and walked to the edge of the balcony.

Looking out from here, you can have an unobstructed view of the sea.

"Belfast told me earlier that she planned to try to test the commander when she went out tonight. But since she is back at this time, it means that Belfast's test has failed."

York City sighed again and turned his head to look at Bumblebee:

"We used to receive many reports every year about the misbehavior of some commanders, but when have you ever seen a commander who was indifferent to a ship girl?"

"Maybe it's just that our commander is experienced?"

"Restraining desires rationally and having no desires are two different things, Bumblebee."
