"No way?" Saratoga couldn't believe it, "I've just left my sister for such a short time, and my sister shouldn't miss me so quickly."

"Maybe Lexington is a sister-in-law." Yuki speculated wildly.

She wanted to disturb Saratoga's thoughts as much as possible, and prevent Saratoga from refusing to enjoy the dishes she had worked so hard to cook because she was aware of the danger.

"Impossible, how could my sister be a sister-in-law."

Saratoga waved her hand firmly.

In terms of understanding of Lexington, Saratoga believes that even Yuki cannot compare with her.

For so many years, on the way to find the admiral, the only person who lived with her sister was Saratoga.

"What if Lexington is deeply hidden?" Shi Yu asked unwillingly.

"I agree." Yuki nodded in support of Shigure.

"Absolutely not!" Saratoga whispered.

While the three of them were chatting one after another, led by Shi Yu, they quickly walked into the supermarket.

The moment she entered the supermarket, Yuki's face suddenly became ugly.

It seemed that she saw something that made her very unhappy.

Chapter 68: Dawn

Shi Yu and Saratoga looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Yuki looked very angry, and in their impression, the admiral had always had a good temper. Even if the director of the event got stuck sometimes, he would usually just lament a few words about his bad luck, And very rarely really get mad at anyone.

With the exception of Xili, the admiral often called her a stupid dog.Shi Yu added in his mind.

"Admiral, what's the matter with you?"

Saratoga asked concerned.

There were a lot of people near the supermarket, and she didn't know what Yuki saw just now to make such an expression, so she had to ask directly.

Yuki's expression was a little unnatural, as if she was forcibly suppressing her anger, she let out a soft breath.

"Shiyu, Jiajia, I have some personal matters to deal with, can you wait here for a while?"

Hearing Yuki's words, Saratoga and Shigure certainly knew that there was something Yuki didn't want them to know.

"Okay then, Admiral, you must be safe by yourself, I won't stay too far away from you."

Saratoga looked at Yuki and said seriously.

Although Saratoga usually likes to mess around, and occasionally flops deliberately in order to be alone with the admiral, she is still very serious when faced with major events.

"Admiral...don't be too angry." Shi Yu said with concern.

"Don't worry, Shi Yu, I'm sensible."

Yuki forced a smile.

Saratoga and Shigure could only look at Yuki's back worriedly.

After leaving Saratoga and Shigure, Yuki took a deep breath, looked in the direction of the person she saw just now, and walked slowly.

Near the checkout counter of the supermarket, there was a girl with dark blue hair who was carrying a bag with some difficulty.

The bag was not big, it was only about the size of two or three bento boxes inside, but the girl's pace seemed unusually slow.

The reason is that the girl's left leg is not a normal limb, but a prosthetic.

Not only that, the girl's right arm was empty, only a dangling sleeve was left hanging on her body sadly.

In such a state, even if it is just to carry a bag that is not too big, it will be particularly difficult.

The people around saw the girl walking with a limp, and some kind-hearted people stepped forward, as if they wanted to help the girl.

However, the girl raised her head, revealing her only left eye, smiled and shook her head.

The well-meaning man saw that the girl was determined and could not persist, so he left with a sigh.

Yuki walked slowly to the girl's side, because she deliberately slowed down, and because the girl lost her right eye, her reaction to the right side of her body was a little slow, so she didn't notice Yuki's existence.

Yuki carefully observed the girl in front of her.

Compared with three years ago, the blue-haired girl, like her, has not grown in size.

Is it because of the ship girl?Yuki thought.

As we all know, the appearance of the ship girl will hardly change, and the appearance when she was just "born" will almost accompany the ship girl for life.

Unless the ship girl is of a high enough level and successfully remodeled, she will have a new look.

However, the dark blue-haired girl in front of her, although she is still a child, makes people feel like she is a person who has experienced hardships.

Yuki stood where she was, watching the girl struggling to move forward.

The girl didn't have a cane. I don't know if she didn't have it or she wasn't with her.

Because of the loss of a leg, every time she took a step forward, the center of gravity of her body would start to shift unnaturally, as if she would fall to the ground the next moment.

But the girl didn't show the slightest panic. I'm afraid she's used to it for a long time. After so many years, she already knew how to keep the balance.

The girl shook slightly, and the body that seemed to be about to fall miraculously supported herself, allowing her to continue to move forward.

It's just that in the eyes of passersby who didn't observe carefully, the girl is like a small boat in a stormy sea, which may capsize at any time.

"Long time no see, Akatsuki."

Yuki took a step forward and supported the crumbling girl.

"Wow!"

Being bumped into by someone suddenly, the girl was taken aback, and immediately turned to look at Yuki.

"So it's Miss Yuki, don't scare me like that."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

"Miss Yuki, how long have you been watching?"

"Not long, I just arrived."

"I don't believe it, you must have been watching for a long time."

"No, not really."

"Don't put on such a serious face, I'm just kidding, hey Miss Yuki, why are you crying. Wait, did I do something wrong?"

The girl wanted to make a joke and liven up the tense atmosphere of the reunion of old friends, but unexpectedly, Yuki burst into tears. She panicked and didn't know what to do.

"Don't cry, I remember Miss Yuki, you are not such a fragile person. You see, I didn't cry, but you are bursting into tears."

"Yoxi, Yoxi, don't cry, if you cry again, you will become a little cat."

Under the comfort of the girl, Yuki wiped away her tears.

"I didn't cry. You misread just now."

Wiping away her tears, Yuki said stiffly.

"Miss Yuki really hasn't changed at all, she's still the same as before... Tsundere."

The girl smiled happily.

"Why did Ms. Yuki come here? If I remember correctly, you should be going to a tutelary mansion for an internship this year, right?"

"Ahem, Akatsuki, do you know the nearby Sasebo tutelary fort?"

Yuki coughed twice, pretending to be mysterious.

"Survived some rumors a little bit. Could it be..."

"That's right, that tutelary mansion is now my tutelary mansion."

Yuki puffed out her chest.

However, to Yuki's surprise, the girl didn't say anything amazing, and asked very puzzled:

"Miss Yuki, why did you come to such a hopeless tutelary mansion?"

"Hey, although I also know that it is a tutelary fort with no future, but you don't need to say it directly."

"Miss Yuki still has such a good face."

"So why did you come to a coastal city like Sasebo again? There shouldn't be any welfare institutions for ship girls here, right?"

Yuki asked abruptly, and there was a moment of silence.

"I remember that you should be going to the Jianniang Nursing Home. Why, those bastards in the Governor's Mansion are reluctant to give you your retirement salary?"

Yuki asked angrily.

If she was at the gate of the governor's mansion now, she would definitely blow up its gate directly.

"It's not like Yuuki-san..."

The girl seemed to want to explain something, but was interrupted by Yuki before she could say anything.

"I don't know what the Governor's Mansion is thinking about. I only know that you have become what you are now because of the wrong information from those guys, and now you have moved here to live alone."

Chapter 69:AYAYA

"I came here on my own terms."

The girl calmly interrupted Yuki.

Yuki froze for a moment, then pursed his lips, waiting for the girl's follow-up explanation.

"At the Governor's Mansion, it was planned to let me enter a certain ship's wife's orphanage at the beginning."

Seeing that Yuki stopped interrupting, the girl's face softened a little.

"Although most ship girls will choose to teach in the academy after retiring, but you should know my situation, Ms. Yuki."

"Even if such a weak ship girl like me goes to the academy, she can't teach much, right? And my legs and feet are not convenient, so the Governor's Mansion is going to arrange for me to go to a welfare home for the elderly."

"Obviously I have only been born a few years ago, and I will be forced to take care of the elderly. I don't want to go to this kind of thing."

"So I came to the place where I was born and lived alone with a little subsidy from the Governor's Mansion every month."

The girl's voice was very calm, as if she was describing something that had nothing to do with her.

"So, you live alone with this body?"

Yuki pointed to the artificial limb on the girl's left leg.

"After getting used to it, it will be fine. At the beginning, it was indeed inconvenient in various places, and it was difficult to even stand up. But as long as I am familiar with how to master the balance, it will be much easier. If my legs are better, I will definitely be able to Faster than I was running on the water before my injury."

Seeing that the girl was even thinking about joking, Yuki felt a little stuffy in her chest.

But she didn't quite know why she was angry.

"It's become like this now, haven't you forgotten to fight? You don't have an admiral at all, so no one actually ordered you to fight the deep sea. Even a few years ago, you didn't have to go..."

Yuki asked with a serious face.

"Fighting against the deep sea is the bounden duty of a ship girl..."

Yuki gave the girl a hard look.

Her meaning is self-evident, and she wants the girl to tell the truth.

"After all, when I opened my eyes, what I saw was an endless ocean, and then a group of strangely shaped deep seas."

"At that time, in order to survive, I had to instinctively operate the ship's equipment and deal with the deep sea, and finally escaped with luck."

"Perhaps from then on, I was destined to fight against the deep sea forever. I just didn't expect it to become like this after only a few years."

Listening to the girl's memories, Yuki also remembered the first time he saw her.

At that time, I still determined to become an excellent admiral, so in order to get the girl, I hung around her all day long.

When the relationship became good, the girl told Yuki the story of her birth.

Then, just when Yuki felt that he was about to succeed in salvaging the boat, bad news came.

"You have nowhere to go now?"
