Since things have developed to this point, Chuyang naturally would not blame Firefly anymore; he was just a bit curious why Kiddo would act this way.
In fact, he did not know that when he said goodbye to Firefly at the entrance of the community in the morning, he thought he had concealed his melancholy very well. However, he forgot that Firefly was a Fleet Girl and was quite sensitive to human emotional fluctuations. How could his little thoughts possibly escape Kiddo's eyes?
For Firefly, since she had decided to become Chuyang's Fleet Girl, she would certainly prioritize considering Chuyang, even though they had not yet signed a contract.
"Chuyang, you are really inconsiderate! I finished my registration and knew to wait for you in the conference room, but after you registered, you didn’t even say hello. By the way, this is Firefly, right? You are so hypocritical, acting one way in front of people and another behind their backs. Come here, Firefly, your Admiral is really not worth it; you should stick with Brother Ye from now on!"
After leaving the Organization Department office, Chuyang did not return to the conference room but took Firefly directly out of the Comprehensive Building.
"Brother Chu Yang is really not worth it; he is Firefly's Admiral," Kiddo said with her hands on her hips, glaring at Ye Zhengyang. "And from now on, you are not allowed to speak ill of Brother Chu Yang; you are the real bad guy."
"Pfft," Ye Zhengyang couldn't hold back and burst into laughter while hugging a tree by the roadside.
"......" Now it was Chuyang's turn to feel frustrated, but he couldn't say anything. Kiddo's intentions were good; it was just her way of expressing herself that had some issues. But can you expect an eight or nine-year-old Loli to understand so much? So he had to accept this silent grievance.
"Alright, pay attention to your image; can't you see the junior and Sister are watching over there?"
"Let them watch! Let me laugh a little longer." Saying this, Ye Zhengyang continued to laugh uncontrollably while holding his stomach.
"Brother Chu Yang, do you think that bad guy brother has a stomach ache? Otherwise, why would he be holding his stomach? I remember Sister Filin always says her stomach hurts when she does this. But why does Sister Filin always hurt for seven or eight days every month and never goes to see a doctor? It's really strange! Is bad guy brother also like Sister Filin? That would be really pitiful." Firefly looked at Ye Zhengyang with some confusion.
"Cough, cough..." Chuyang's face turned red. How could he respond? He certainly couldn't tell Kiddo that Sister Filin wasn't suffering from a stomach ache but was instead on her period! Such a statement felt inappropriate to him. However, seeing Ye Zhengyang's face dark as a pot bottom at that moment made him feel quite pleased inside!
"Hey, did you know? Shen Yan Senior seems to have returned to school today."
"Why is she back at school? This batch doesn't need her to supervise the interns," Chuyang asked, puzzled.
The internship system at Rongcheng Naval Academy had been established long ago. Typically, it was handled by graduates who were two years senior to the interns and had already settled down at the Naval Base outside. Shen Yan was indeed two years senior to Chuyang.
Logically speaking, the academy wouldn't trouble a student to oversee two batches of interns. Additionally, Shen Yan's Naval Base was located in the Southwest Asian Sea, at Forward Base No. 23, which was quite far from the southeastern coast where Rongcheng was situated. A round trip would take at least half a month, so Chuyang found it extremely strange that Shen Yan had returned to school at this time.
"You don't know?" Ye Zhengyang looked at Chuyang in surprise.
"Must I know?"
"Damn, you're really heartless. It's a shame that Shen Yan Senior treats you so well," Ye Zhengyang said with a look of disdain.
"Hurry up and say what you need to say; stop beating around the bush."
"Shen Yan Senior has been selected by Naval Headquarters. This time she’s back; she will be following the Fleet Girls from Naval Headquarters to Campbell Island for an inspection and will live there for six months," Ye Zhengyang said, his tone filled with envy.
Campbell Island, located in the central-western part of the Pacific Ocean, is a large island with an incredibly beautiful natural environment and abundant resources. The most crucial point is that Naval Headquarters is established on Campbell Island.
It is well known that there are three enormous organizations in this world. The first is the World Government, composed of various national governments, similar to the United Nations in Chuyang's previous life. The second is the Admiral Alliance, formed by Admirals. The third is Naval Headquarters.
First, let's talk about the World Government. Although we are in an era where humanity has a common enemy—the Deep Sea Shipgirls—conflicts between individuals are inevitable, let alone between nations! Therefore, the World Government is a relatively loose organization. However, this should not lead to underestimating the World Government. For the Admirals and Fleet Girls, whether it's their salaries or the supplies issued by the Naval Headquarters, they are all provided by the World Government. It can be said that without the World Government, the vast majority of Naval Bases would collapse due to a lack of resources, and even the Naval Headquarters would cease to exist.
Next is the Admiral Alliance. This organization is quite unique; it receives salaries from the World Government but explicitly states that no Admiral may participate in politics or interfere in human conflicts, maintaining a stance of detachment. However, both the Admiral Alliance itself and every Admiral within it must accept supervision from the Naval Headquarters. As for Admirals who do not belong to the Admiral Alliance, that's a misconception; as long as one is a formal Admiral, they are implicitly considered part of the Admiral Alliance.
Finally, we have the Naval Headquarters. It can be said that among these three organizations, the Naval Headquarters is the most united and possesses the strongest overall strength. This is because the Naval Headquarters is composed entirely of Fleet Girls, many of whom are among the elite Fleet Girls that first appeared in this world, each possessing immense power. Not to mention, the so-called strongest military force in the world—the Three Admirals of the Naval Headquarters—are entities that instill great fear in the World Government. Legend has it that each of these three Fleet Girls has the power to suppress a Deep Sea Flagship single-handedly. Moreover, the Gendarmerie, which is feared by every Admiral around the world, is also formed by the Naval Headquarters and is directly under its jurisdiction.
Regarding what Ye Zhengyang mentioned about Shen Yan being selected by the Naval Headquarters to live on Campbell Island for six months, this is not simply for leisure but rather to salvage ships. We won't even discuss Battleships, Battlecruisers, or Aircraft Carriers; just securing a Captain-level Destroyer or a Rear Admiral-level Light Cruiser or Heavy Cruiser from that island would be exhilarating. Furthermore, since Shen Yan will stay there for six months, who knows how many powerful Fleet Girls she might salvage? By the time she returns, she will likely become a significant figure in her own right. If Ye Zhengyang doesn't feel envy or jealousy about that, it would indeed be strange.
