Taking a deep breath, Li Ran held the cup with both hands to avoid spilling the water.

"More than twenty days ago, the freighter transporting supplies to our garrison was hijacked here."

Standing in front of the world map, Lexington lit a certain area of ​​​​the sea with a stick.

Phew~!

Letting out the tightness in his chest, Li Ran asked in a deep voice: "That means we will have no supplies this month? What did the Governor's Office say? Will there be reissues?"

Looking at each other with Bismarck, Lexington hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Li Ran grinned bitterly and said, "Looking at you, the Governor's Mansion doesn't seem to be planning to reissue it."

"More or less, this is the plan of the Governor's Mansion for the time being." After a pause, the wife bit her lip and said quickly: "The supplies that were robbed are not for a month, but for a quarter."

Snap~!

He slapped the table hard and Li Ran almost fainted from anger.

"Tell me, what on earth is going on?!" He gritted his teeth and said every word.

Feeling guilty, Lexington slowly told the whole story.

Because the war has been tense recently, most of the transportation capacity of the Governor's Mansion has to serve the front line. According to past practice, it should have been reissued, but according to the next battle plan, the Governor's Mansion really cannot spare the excess.

transport ship.

"But they promised me that if the stolen supplies are not recovered, they will be reissued the next time supplies are distributed." After stroking his hair, Lexington finally told me the good news: "If we have no battle damage, the garrison will reserve

It’s not a problem to have supplies for three months.”

Hearing this, Li Ran was relieved, but still very unhappy.

"Is there any news from the Governor's Mansion about the identity of the robber?" He said this through gritted teeth. He wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

"have!"

Nodding, Lexington drew a circle on the map with the stick in his hand: "This archipelago was a famous pirate nest before the ship girl appeared. Now, although a city has been built here, pirates can still be heard occasionally.

news."

"etc!"

After interrupting his wife, Li Ran was a little dumbfounded: "You mean our supplies were stolen by pirates?"

"The transport ship was found on one of the islands, so the pirates here are the biggest suspects." Looking at the admiral, Lexington asked, "Is there a problem?"

"Of course there is a problem!"

Li Ran shrugged his shoulders and said in an exaggerated tone: "Even if the other party is a group of pirates from ancient times, do you think they have the ability to rob a transport ship?"

After saying that, he shook his head and added: "I don't believe there is no escort on the ship."

"What if it's a ship girl?" the wife asked.

Ship girl?!

Li Ran couldn't help but be stunned.

He then remembered that Helena had said before that the robber was a powerful ship girl.

"This is unscientific. How can a ship girl become a pirate?" Li Ran touched his chin and roared depressedly.

brush!

Everyone's eyes turned to a certain ship girl who was sitting upright.

Cough! Cough!

Facing everyone's gaze, Bismarck shook his ears and coughed twice unnaturally: "Admiral, everything is possible!"

Li Ran patted his mouth gently and cast an apologetic look.

He forgot that there happens to be the ultimate pirate here, the kind who not only robs supplies, but also the trousers of little girls.

"Do you know who did it?" Li Ran smiled at Bismarck and quickly changed the subject.

"The escort girl was knocked unconscious from behind, so she didn't see the attacker's appearance clearly. She just saw the size of the attacker before she fainted. He seemed to be a destroyer girl."

"The other party only knocked out the escorting ship girl and did not harm her life, so she is not a deep sea. Only the ship girl can knock out the ship girl. Ordinary people cannot do this."

"After knocking everyone on board unconscious, the robbers dragged the transport ship to this island." He gently tapped an island on the map with a wooden stick, and Lexington frowned: "This is where the other party brought the supplies.

Moved away."

"The Governor's Office has begun investigating the matter, and there are patrols on the route to see if the missing supplies can be found. However, there is pressure on the front, so we cannot hold out too much hope."

After a pause, Lexington added: "I released the carrier-based aircraft because I was worried that someone would target the garrison, but nothing has been discovered so far."

"That's it!"

Touching his chin, Li Ran fell into deep thought.

"Keep in touch with the Governor's Mansion. Notify me as soon as there are new clues. Sort out the situation there. I want to see who it is." Looking at the place where his wife pointed, he snorted coldly.

"I see, does the Admiral have anything to add?" Lexington asked after writing down the Admiral's words.

"Not yet. Today is the day for our new partners to go home. Let's celebrate tonight."

Shaking his head, Li Ran glanced at Dafeng and others.

Although there is no supply for a quarter, as long as there is no war and you don't build it yourself, life in the garrison will not change much.

In the evening, Lexington cooked a large table of delicious food.

Climbing up Li Ran's lap and sitting down, the big mackerel pointed at the chicken drumstick on the table and said coquettishly: "Admiral, I want to eat a big chicken drumstick."

"Okay, okay, is this big enough?"

"That's enough. Thank you, Admiral. Admiral is very kind." Carrying the big chicken leg, the big mackerel slipped down with a smile.

Naturally, Li Ran would not favor one over the other. He gave each little guy a chicken drumstick.

Seeing this, the big mackerel hurriedly came to his friend and took a look.

Finding that the drumstick in her hand was the largest, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes and look up and laugh.

After dinner, the three shipgirls Eugen, Quincy and Aoba gave a wonderful performance to everyone.

They were not idle these days when the admiral was away.

"good!"

Seeing the band taking shape on the stage, Li Ran was very proud.

Guitarist Quincy, bassist Aoba and drummer Eugen, plus a keyboard player, she would be a perfect light-toned girl.

Late at night, when everyone was taking a bath and preparing to go to bed, Li Ran took the information compiled by Lexington and carefully read through it.

"Strange, why do I feel like something is wrong?"

Yawning, he took a sip of the coffee specially prepared by his wife and muttered to himself.

The content of the information was not much, it was about the current information on the archipelago and the personnel information on the transport ship. He had read it no less than three times.

"Escort ship Chokai!" Li Ran murmured to himself as he tapped the tabletop lightly: "Chokai, Chokai, Chokai, heavy cruiser Chokai."

After tapping on Chokai's name, what his wife said during the day suddenly flashed in his mind.

Hiss~!

Li Ran frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and pressed the button on the table.

After a while, Lexington opened the door and walked in.

"Admiral, would you like another cup?" Looking at the little coffee left, the wife subconsciously picked up the cup.

"No, I have a question for you." Holding Lexington's hand, Li Ran's eyes flashed with wisdom.
