Just as Li Ran thought, when it was announced that Big Mackerel and the others were the winners of this party, although everyone was a little unconvinced, they didn't say much, and only Saratoga muttered a few words.

It's always better for the little guys to win than the other guys.

"Oh yeah!"

When they heard that they had won the championship, the little guys jumped up and down, looking very happy.

"That's what I'm telling you~!" With a flat mouth, Camicchia glanced at Veneto cautiously and muttered silently: "If the eldest sister is willing to listen to me and join the big mackerel and the others, we will also be the winner now.

"

Veneto raised his eyebrows and glared at the little angel.

He was the eldest sister of the battleship, how could he perform with Big Mackerel and the others? Veneto couldn't say anything when he thought that Camicchia didn't win the championship because he was trying to help him.

"It's getting late, let's go to bed early." Li Ran clapped his hands and shouted loudly: "Tomorrow I will take the big mackerel and the others out to play."

The big mackerel raised his head and asked: "Admiral, I want to go out and play with the big sisters."

She had discussed it with her friends just now. Although they were the winners of this party, it would not be fun to go out with the admiral alone. It would be more fun if everyone went out together.

"Okay, you are the winner of the party, I will listen to you!" Li Ran smiled and touched the head of the big mackerel, and replied softly.

"You're so good, I'm glad I didn't hurt you in vain!"

When Saratoga heard that she could go out with him tomorrow, she couldn't help but rub the big mackerel's hair.

The eyes of other ship girls are also much brighter.

Lexington stood up and suggested: "Admiral, tomorrow is New Year's Day, let's just have a picnic."

"I think it works!"

Li Ran thinks his wife's proposal is very good.

…

Early the next morning, a few little guys pushed open Li Ran's bedroom door.

"Admiral, get up quickly and go buy ingredients!" Pisces jumped onto the bed and rolled over, making a fuss.

Li Ran picked up the alarm clock and looked at it. He couldn't laugh or cry.

"Why did you get up so early today?" Li Ran shrank into the bed and looked at Xuefeng standing at the head of the bed depressedly.

Usually the little ones are the last ones to get up, but they didn't expect to get up so early today.

Seeing the admiral retreating into the bed, Pisces grabbed the quilt and pulled it while shouting: "Admiral, get up quickly, it's getting late!"

"Because we are going shopping with the admiral today, we are all looking forward to it. Let Sister Lexington wake us up in advance." Holding Li Ran's clothes, Xuefeng blinked her big eyes with an expectant expression on her face.

Holding down Pisces' hands to stop them from moving, Li Ran counted the little ones in the room and asked, "What about Sukhbaatar and Odin? They haven't gotten up yet?"

"They said they wanted to catch a really big fish and grill it!"

Riding on Li Ran across the quilt, the big mackerel spread out his arms to show his size.

Poking out half of its head from behind the big mackerel, the archer fish looked at Li Ran and said with a smile: "It would be great if we could catch a big mackerel, so we can grill the big mackerel and eat it!"

"You idiot archer fish, the big mackerel is not delicious at all, let's catch an archer fish!" The big mackerel retorted unhappily as he shook his little head.

With his mouth pursed, Archerfish looked indifferent: "You are the fool. There is no fish named Archerfish in the sea."

"Admiral, the sun is shining on your butt, get up quickly!"

Camicchia also climbed up, stretched out her palm and patted Li Ran's cheek gently.

Looking at the noisy Pisces and Little Angel, and then at Xuefeng, Supply Sauce, O'Bannon and Aviel holding his clothes, Li Ran hurriedly sat up from the bed.

"Admiral, clothes!"

Xuefeng's eyes lit up and he hurriedly handed over his hand.

Supply Jiang stretched out his hand in the same manner. Although it was clumsy, it made Li Ran's heart warm.

"Admiral, would you like to wear an extra sweater? It's a bit cold today!"

When Li Ran was about to put on his coat, Xuefeng stood on tiptoes and took out a sweater from the closet. She finally had a chance to take care of the admiral, and she didn't want to make any mistakes.

Meeting the little guy's expectant gaze, Li Ran nodded, although he felt that the clothes on his body were enough to withstand the cold wind outside.

"By the way, where is Brother Yan?" After getting dressed, Li Ran suddenly thought of this little guest.

Raising his head, Xuefeng replied worriedly: "Brother Yan Bago looked a little sad when he woke up in the morning. Sister Lexington was comforting her in the dormitory."

"That's it!"

Nodding thoughtfully, Li Ran led everyone out of the bedroom.

During breakfast, everyone was relieved to see Brother Yan following Lexington into the cafeteria chatting and laughing.

After breakfast, everyone started preparing for today's picnic.

"Admiral, do you want me to send you off?" South Dakota parked beside everyone on his beloved scooter.

Smiling and shaking his head, Li Ran pointed to the little guys around him and said, "There are so many people here, and your motorcycle can't fit in them."

"Okay then, I'll go carry the firewood and make the charcoal!"

Blinking his eyes, South Dakota left the garrison in disappointment.

"Let's go shopping!" He lowered his head and frowned at the little guys, and Li Ran led the way towards the city.

"You are not allowed to run around when you enter the city. You must stay by my side!"

Amid Li Ran's numerous instructions, everyone arrived in the city.

As the admiral who guards the local area, Li Ran's shipgirl is already well known to the locals, so instead of being surprised, everyone happily extended holiday blessings to everyone.

Li Ran smiled happily at this.

"I want to eat cake!" When passing by a cake shop, the little ones stopped and looked at their admiral eagerly.

Nodding, Li Ran said with a smile: "I said yesterday, I will buy you whatever you want to eat today!"

"Oh yeah!"

The little ones immediately cheered and surrounded Li Ran to the door of the cake shop.

Twitching his nose, the big mackerel looked at the cake on the counter eagerly.

Seeing this, Li Ran nodded and asked the boss: "Boss, how much does this cake cost?"

The boss was a kind, middle-aged fat man. He looked in the direction of Li Ran's finger and said with a smile, "Sorry, this cake is not my product."

"It's not your product?!" Li Ran frowned and couldn't help but take another look.

Compared with other cakes in the store, the cake that Big Mackerel is staring at is much more delicate, and it really doesn't look like the cakes sold in the store.

"I'm not afraid of customers making fun of me. I bought this in another city." The fat boss said kindly: "Because it tastes good, I'm imitating it."

After a pause, the boss looked at the big mackerel and said, "But since the guests like it, I'll give it to you."

"Isn't this good?" Li Ran hesitated for a moment.

Waving his hand, the fat boss took the cake from the table and said, "It's okay. Anyway, no matter how I imitate it, it doesn't taste like it. I'm about to give up."

Only then did Li Ran accept the boss's cake.
