"Sister Flying Eagle, Sister Falcon, I...I will miss you!" On the dock, Xuefeng stood on tiptoes and waved her hands toward the departing ship.

Noticing the reluctance in the little guy's eyes, Li Ran touched her head and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to get everyone back after I become the official admiral."

"Um!"

Nodding obediently, Xuefeng took Li Ran's hand and looked around.

Now that Sister Shuangying is away, the Admiral's safety depends entirely on herself, and she cannot relax.

During the time on the ship, Li Ran and Shuang Ying discussed a lot, and finally decided to become the official admiral first and own a garrison before talking about other things.

Due to the inconvenience, Shuangying could not send him to the Admiral Academy, so everyone had to part ways on the nearest island.

In order to fight against the deep sea, admirals were distributed all over the world and established their own garrison on islands.

The existence of an island with a garrison means that it is very safe. There is no need to worry about attacks from the deep sea within a radius of a hundred miles, at least in the offshore area.

Therefore, a large number of ordinary people will live and work peacefully on the island, and after a long period of development, a city will gradually form.

Li Ran decided to take a short rest here on the boat, and then take the boat north to the city where the Admiral Academy is located.

Since he had plenty of time, he planned to stay in a city for a few days every time he passed by, so that he could see the local customs and get some news about the ship girls.

"Admiral, where should we go now?"

Seeing Li Ran silently looking at the sea, Xuefeng pulled his sleeve and asked.

Being so disturbed by the little guy, Li Ran came back to his senses...

He stretched out his right hand and showed the watch on his wrist in front of Xuefeng: "First find a pawn shop to sell this thing."

Seeing this, the little guy pouted and lowered his head sadly: "Admiral...Admiral, am I very useless? I can't help you at all."

Blinking his eyes, Li Ran bent down to pick up Xuefeng, pinched her nose lovingly, and comforted: "Who said that, you are the greatest help by my side. To the admiral, Xuefeng's smile

But it’s the most precious thing, so you have to smile more!”

"hey-hey!"

Leaning her red face on Li Ran's shoulder, Xuefeng twisted her body in embarrassment with a silly smile on her face.

"And as you saw on the boat, I don't want any money from Double Eagle."

Hearing this, Xuefeng raised his head and asked in confusion: "But the Admiral obviously has no money, why doesn't he want Sister Feiying's money? Everything we have belongs to the Admiral, and it is also the Admiral's money!"

"Just think of it as my last dignity!" Li Ran tightened his arms and smiled helplessly.

"Oh~!"

Blinking her eyes, Xuefeng obviously couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but she didn't say anything more and just leaned against the admiral quietly.

Taking a look at the busy crowd on the pier, Li Ran turned around and walked back.

If he doesn't reach the end of his rope, he doesn't want to accept the ship girl's relief.

Yesterday, he asked Fei Ying that his watch seemed to be very valuable, at least they had never seen a watch with such exquisite workmanship. Other crew members also thought that this watch could be bought at a good price.

So even though Shuangying said that his money was the admiral's money, Li Ran did not accept their kindness.

"Brother, please stay!"

As soon as he walked off the pier with Xuefeng in his arms, Li Ran heard a calm voice coming from behind him.

Looking back, I saw a rather sturdy man standing not far behind.

Although his clothes are ordinary, his posture is very upright, and he has a completely different temperament from the passers-by around him.

"Who are you…?"

Putting down Xue Feng, Li Ran looked at the strong man walking toward him in confusion.

The opponent's steps were sonorous and powerful, and he looked like he was no ordinary person.

When he got closer, he realized that there was a little girl following this person.

The little girl is very beautiful. Compared with ordinary people, she stands out from the crowd. Only Xuefeng can be compared with her.

Although the little girl is petite, she can keep up with the strong man's pace without difficulty at all. She even looks around leisurely.

Seeing this, Li Ran had a rough guess.

If the prediction is correct, the strong man is probably an admiral, and the little girl is a ship girl, but I don't know if they are the admirals of this island.

But for some reason, he always felt that the little girl looked at him a little unkindly.

In his confusion, Li Ran didn't notice that Xuefeng quietly took a step forward and protected himself behind him.

"Hello, my name is Li Gao. The governor's mansion is on this island, so I am half the owner of it."

Noticing Xuefeng's behavior, the strong man stopped and introduced himself.

"This is my initial ship girl Firefly, a powerful destroyer girl."

Hearing the word "firefly", Li Ran carefully looked at the little girl behind the strong man.

Unfortunately, the other party is completely different from the firefly in my impression.

His eyes rested on the little girl's smooth forehead for a while, and Li Ran couldn't help but shudder.

Although the appearance is different, the attack methods should be the same.

"Sir Admiral, I always feel that you are thinking of something rude." Touching his forehead, Firefly looked at Li Ran suspiciously.

"Sorry, it's just that I also know a ship girl named Firefly, but your appearance is completely different, so I took another look." After a slight cough, Li Ran hurriedly explained.

"It's normal for ships with the same name to have different appearances except for their uniforms." After a casual explanation, Li Gao continued to ask: "What's your name? I think you are also an admiral."

"Li Ran, prepare to be the admiral, this is my ship's wife Xuefeng!" Li Ran stretched out his right hand and shook Li Gao's hand, Li Ran said calmly.

"Wow, you actually have the same surname as me, what a fate!" Li Gao was stunned for a moment, then walked over enthusiastically and patted Li Ran's shoulder familiarly.

"It's such a rare coincidence. Why don't you go to my townhouse for a drink? My Kaohsiung craftsmanship is pretty good."

"So enthusiastic?!"

Looking at Li Gao's enthusiastic smile, Li Ran frowned, not knowing how to answer him.

This is the first time that the two parties have met. If you are courteous for nothing, you are either cheating or stealing. This is a wise saying from the previous life.

Noticing his expression, Li Gao hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, I don't have any thoughts about you. It's just that we are all admirals, so we naturally have to help each other."

"No, I'm just preparing to be the admiral." Li Ran still couldn't let go.

"Preparatory admirals are also admirals, but they do not have the establishment of the Governor's Office. In fact, they are not much different from the so-called formal admirals."

After looking at Xuefeng, Li Gao continued.

"The only requirement for an admiral is to get the approval of the ship's wife. With the approval of the ship's wife, it will be easy to get the establishment of the Governor's Mansion."

"We are all partners in the same camp. Maybe I will need you, brother, to support me when I am attacked by the deep sea in the future...!"

Li Gao was about to say something when the firefly behind him suddenly kicked him.

"Admiral, do you really want to invite them? That is the famous Prince Xuefengxue!" Pulling his admiral to squat down, Firefly whispered in his ear.

"And you also heard what he said just now, you are my most precious thing. You are so skilled and you can tell that you are a veteran. Maybe he has been targeted by the gendarmerie now. Are you sure you want to invite him to the garrison?

Being a guest?”

After listening to Firefly's whisper, Li Ran frowned and felt that it was indeed inappropriate to invite him as a guest just now.
