Elder brother's garrison

"Susu?" Raffi and Javelin asked curiously, "Who is this older sister?"

Raffi and Javelin will not participate in training for the next two days.

Due to the configuration and the unexpected intensity of the training, even Veneto couldn't take care of the safety of the two destroyers, so she left them with the admiral. When they had nothing to do, the two destroyers would hang out with Sukhbaatar.

“This person is the governor,” Sukhbaatar said awkwardly to the two small destroyers behind him and Little Whiteia. “He is the current admiral of the Inland Governor’s Office.”

"Eh???" Xiaobai looked at Ringo in surprise.

Governor-General?

again?

Xiao Bai stared at the person in front of her in surprise.

Xiao Bai was first surprised that a governor had actually run up to him, and then he was even more shocked by the governor's youth.

Ringo looks to be only in her early twenties. You might believe she's Admiral Xiaobai, but you really can't convince yourself that she's Governor-General Xiaobai.

The governor-general is the commander-in-chief of a large region.

It's a very important position. How can such a position be given to someone so young?

Even Mu Yu, who is over twenty-nine years old this year, is about to step into his thirties and go further and further down this road. He can be considered a super young and exceptional governor. However, Lin Qing still looks much, much younger than Mu Yu.

Are all the governors of this world such a group of hot-blooded young men and women?

“I think I understand what you’re thinking, little girl. I was quite surprised when I first found out, but this person really is the governor.” Sukhbaatar sighed and explained to Xiaobai, “This person has been in office for no more than three years. The person before him was even younger.”

"Wasn't he only seventeen or eighteen when he first took office?!" Xiaobai exclaimed in surprise.

"Although that's a bit... well, I don't think you're in a right to talk about others like that."

"Uh……"

Chapter 309 Su Su's Confession

In their subsequent conversation, Xiaobai and Nia learned that Ringo was the governor whom the former governor, who had been promoted three years ago, had specifically requested to succeed her.

Ringo is very young, even surprisingly young. Before going to university, she skipped grades in elementary, middle and high school, which made her very young when she graduated from the Naval Academy.

She didn't seem to be much older than Xiaobai is now.

Later, Ringo became an admiral and remained silent for a long time. But in recent years, she suddenly burst forth with unparalleled talent and strength, just like a student who has been studying hard for years.

Soon, as her work ability and professional skills, as well as the overall strength of the naval base, grew, the former governor took a liking to her.

After a period of study, Ringo took over the position of governor, becoming the youngest, and arguably the youngest and most beautiful, governor in history.

The Inland Governor-General is not the most powerful governor-general in the world, because she is in charge of the inland areas, which do not have a sea.

Without the ocean, there is no deep sea; without the deep sea, there is no governor. In other words, the inland governor does not actually have much real power.

To be honest, the area under her jurisdiction was only the sea area in the first few chapters, which was only transferred to her by the higher-ups because the Inland Governor didn't have much real power.

After being promoted to Inland Governor, Ringo was taken by the old governor to the First Chapter Sea area and met with Sukhbaatar.

Sukhbaatar's existence was secret, but not entirely secret; at least the governor knew about it.

This is a ship girl who appears innocent and kind, but is incredibly proud and arrogant, and possesses the power to destroy the world when the time is right.

These ship girls are very difficult to control; even the governor didn't know what to do with her before she found an admiral.

So Sukhbaatar was given a nominal position.

This is the title of the so-called first chapter's guardian of the sea. Naturally, this title will not be announced to outsiders; it is only for Sukhbaatar's personal enjoyment.

Ringo was quite shocked that Sukhbaatar had actually found the admiral.

The Sukhbaatar is no ordinary ship; its symbolic and strategic significance is on par with nuclear weapons, which is why Ringo was so surprised.

Besides, Sukhbaatar held a nominal position, which meant he was practically a government official. It wouldn't make sense for him to just abandon his responsibilities like that.

Xiaobai and Nia wanted to invite Ringo to sit under the parasol. Although the parasol wasn't very big, it could still accommodate three people if they squeezed in.

Ringo waved her hand, declining Xiaobai and Nia's suggestion, and instead sat down on the beach, lifting her skirt.

Sukhbaatar handed over an ice pop as an apology.

"But I didn't expect that an anomaly in just the Fourth Sea would warrant the Governor's personal intervention." Xiaobai asked with some curiosity, looking at Ringo, who was sitting quietly on the beach licking an ice pop.

Xiao Bai had always thought that Mu Yu, who would easily pass the buck to the destroyer and then cause trouble, was an oddball among the governors. He never expected that there would be a second governor in the world who could leave his governor's mansion so easily.

It seems the governor's job is much easier than the admiral's.

Ringo held the popsicle and looked at Shiro.

If the proud and arrogant Sukhbaatar were to become someone's ship girl, that person would definitely be no ordinary admiral. However, in the current first chapter of the sea, only the current world's number one admiral has that kind of status.

Ringo's eyes dimmed.

—That's true. When did I start having the illusion that I could see that person?

Sensing that the successor to the world's number one admiral was in the First Sea, he abandoned all his work and rushed over without thinking about what to do or say. Only when he saw the person in person did he become dejected.

She knew perfectly well that she would never see that person again.

Ringo unconsciously tightened her grip on the folding fan with her other hand.

She looked up at the two destroyers sitting with Sukhbaatar, and at Takao and Atago, who were stubbornly kneeling and admitting their mistakes.

Ringo's expression gradually softened.

"Oh, by the way, Governor Sister..."

"Ringo."

"...Ringo-neechan?"

"Ringo."

Looking at Ringo who was gazing at her with tenderness, Xiaobai could only nod: "Then... Ringo?"

"kindness."

—Wow, it feels really strange to call elders and superiors by their first names.

"Didn't you bring any ship girls with you this time?" Shiro asked Ringo.

“At the manor,” Ringo said.

"Huh? Aren't we supposed to be investigating the fourth node, the deep-sea cluster?" Xiaobai asked curiously. "Shouldn't we need ship girls to help us?"

“One person, come quickly,” Ringo replied.

The popsicle in Ringo's hand had almost melted and slid down the wooden stick into the sand.

Ringo looked at the popsicles melting on the sand pile in front of her and slowly said, "Moreover, if the cause is not cleared up, they will cluster together in the future, so aimless violence is not acceptable."

Xiao Bai nodded knowingly.

No wonder he's a governor; his insight is truly remarkable. Despite his youth, he handles matters with a remarkable style, radiating wisdom.

“That sister… Ringo,” Xiaobai said to Ringo, “we probably already know the reason for the deep-sea cluster.”

Xiao Bai paused for a moment, then cautiously said, "It should be that Dean Deep Sea appeared in the fourth node."

This information was deduced by Sukhbaatar without any evidence. Without evidence, it is just a hypothesis and cannot be reported upwards. Therefore, even though Mr. Barbatos believed Xiaobai's words, he dared not tell the governor's office about it.

After all, if something goes wrong and the higher-ups take it seriously, sending down dozens of admirals from top-tier sea areas to have a cup of tea and leave, then he would be the one in trouble.

Ringo looked at Shiro and nodded.

Ringo believed Shiro's words almost without thinking.

"Why don't we go back now and call the ship girls back?" Shiro suggested to Ringo.

"Need not."

"why?"

"You're here," Ringo said.

Xiaobai paused for a moment, then looked at Ringo's seemingly expressive eyes and then glanced towards Sukhbaatar.

“Don’t look at me, I didn’t say anything,” Sukhbaatar said.

Xiaobai turned back, looking at Ringo with some nervousness: "Um, Ringo, do you know who I am?"

Ringo nodded.

Absolutely.

Xiao Bai underestimated the governor's information.

Although it's not something I can't tell others about my trip to the first chapter as an expedition, it's still quite embarrassing to say it out loud.

Xiaobai used the Admiral's Certificate several times here. Not to mention train tickets and other such information, this alone was enough for Ringo to confirm when she had doubts about the first chapter.

With her identity exposed (though she hadn't intended to hide it in the first place), Xiaobai could only sit in front of Ringo with a forced smile: "Ringo, did you come here because of me?"

Ringo nodded.

"So I really shouldn't have come here?" Xiaobai asked.

Upon hearing this, Nia, who was standing next to Xiaobai, panicked.

"It doesn't matter." Ringo shook her head and added a special note.

"Oh, that's good." Xiaobai and Nia breathed a sigh of relief. "So, Ringo, did you come here to look for me?"

Ringo looked at Shiro but didn't answer her.

In fact, Ringo didn't know how to answer either.

Because she really didn't know what to do.

She came here on a whim, without considering what would happen next.

So Ringo didn't answer Shiro, but instead took the initiative to ask, "Why do we need to train?"

"Because Nia is about to start her exercise," Xiaobai said, "the day after tomorrow morning."

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he nudged Nia next to him.

Nia quickly bowed to Ringo.

Ringo nodded.

Nia was the same admiral who had been dismissed and whom Mu Yu had called to ask her to take the blame.

For some reason, this admiral has become acquainted with the current world's number one admiral.

"So, in order to improve the training level of Nia's ship girls, we are now intensifying our training here," Xiaobai explained, pointing to the sea.

Because Veneto's training was so incredibly difficult, even though it was highly efficient, it put too much pressure on the ship girls, and none of them, except for Roma, could keep up.

Even Helena Wichita of Cleveland, dressed in gold, could only barely keep up with the shadow of Rome, which is still dressed in white.

Not to mention Kaohsiung and Atago, their equipment was purple and green scavenged from the Admiral's Guild warehouse. It was decent for the first three sea areas, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to withstand Veneto's wrath.

Huh? Why did you mention anger?

Xiao Bai glanced at the water surface with a puzzled look.

"When is the exercise?" Ringo asked.

"Tomorrow morning, in the first node sea area," Xiaobai said.

Ringo nodded, then glanced at the sea area of ​​the fourth node and stood up from the beach.

Let's put the anomaly at the fourth node aside for now. With the world's number one admiral here, the sudden appearance of a Deep Sea Dean is something they can handle very quickly.

Lin Qing arrived quickly and left quickly. She ate an ice pop, chatted with Xiao Bai and Nia for a few minutes, and then left.

From beginning to end, Xiaobai had no idea what Lin Qing was there for; it seemed as if she was satisfied after seeing him.

I'm not that pretty, am I?

So Xiaobai felt that this person was a bit strange.

"Oh, speaking of which, little girl, you said you're the admiral of the rookie garrison?" Sukhbaatar asked.

"Yes."

"Then you should know her."

"what?"
