After a while, the waiter served a serving of soybean milk and youtiao.
Lafite pushed the tiramisu and hot milk on the table in front of Chen Ming. Then, she patted the table and signaled the waiter to put the food here.
Chen Ming looked at Lafite's actions warmly. He picked up a little tiramisu with his fork and put it into his mouth. The tiramisu melted in his mouth, and the rich aroma of milk and chocolate filled his entire mouth.
"The taste is not bad." Chen Ming felt that this tiramisu was indeed very authentic.
"Lafite doesn't want to eat tiramisu. Eating too much sweet food will make you fat.”Lefay said as she looked at the soy milk and youtiao on the table. He felt that these things seemed to be very delicious.
Seeing that Lefay was about to stab the youtiao with her fork, Chen Ming stood up and grabbed Lefay's small hand. He said gently,"You can't eat youtiao like this. You have to do it like this.”
As he spoke, Chen Ming used his hand to split the youtiao in half and then divided one of them into four portions. Then, he separated the disposable chopsticks on the table and said,"Donghuang's food should be eaten in the most traditional way. Have you heard of chopsticks?”After saying that, he waved his chopsticks in front of Lefay.
"I don't know, probably." Lefay shook her head.”
Seeing that Lefay didn't know how to use chopsticks, Chen Ming demonstrated it to her kindly. He first picked up a small piece of youtiao with his chopsticks and then soaked it in soy milk. After feeling that the youtiao was almost soft, Chen Ming picked it up and placed it on the small plate in front of Lafite.
"Youtiao is especially hard when it's just fried, and it will feel especially dry after eating it. Only Youtiao soaked in soybean milk is the most delicious.”Chen Ming looked at Lafite awkwardly holding the chopsticks and putting the fried dough stick into her mouth. It was like a child using chopsticks for the first time. It made him feel very warm.
"Wow, it's delicious!" Lefay let out a beastie's voice and smiled happily.
Using the method Chen Ming taught her, Lefay quickly finished the soy milk and youtiao. Although she was not very familiar with chopsticks, Lefay was still very enthusiastic about this new food.
"Let's go, we should gather on the deck.”After drinking the warm milk that Lafite did not drink, Chen Ming got up and wiped his mouth with a napkin. Then, he held Lafite's hand and left the cafeteria with a satisfied expression.
The A-5 flight deck was located on the left side of the second deck of the Harmony. After confirming the location, Chen Ming took Lefay to an elevator on the left side of the cafeteria. After going up from the elevator, Chen Ming did not choose to take transportation because the exit was not far from the deck. Instead, he planned to walk there and take it as a walk.
Chen Ming used to have the habit of going out for a walk at night. As a fat otaku, if he did not choose a suitable exercise method, he would only become weaker and weaker. The exercise method that Chen Ming chose was to go out for a walk after dinner at night.
However, since he came to this world, Chen Ming seemed to have not enjoyed the time for a walk for a long time. In the beginning, he was studying in school. The daily military training in school made him so tired that he could not straighten his back, let alone go out for a walk at night.
However, after a year of military training, Chen Ming's body gradually became healthy from its previous weakness. Now, he enjoyed this kind of life very much. With the real [Ship Girl] accompanying him, he didn't have to be a shut-in at home all day like before. No one cared about him. This kind of life made him feel very happy. At least yesterday and today, he felt very happy with Lefay's company.
"It's been a long time since I've enjoyed the relaxation and pleasure of this walk.”Chen Ming said in a relaxed manner.
It was almost eight o'clock, and the Harmony crew started to get back to their posts. Along the way, because Chen Ming was wearing the special uniform of a naval commander and had the rank of lieutenant on his shoulder, the passing naval soldiers kept saluting him.
Lefay hid behind Chen Ming shyly and grabbed his sleeve with her small hand. It was obvious that she was still a little afraid of strangers.
"Hello, are you Lieutenant Chen Ming?”Just as Chen Ming walked into the helipad, a second lieutenant politely stopped him.
"Yes, may I know who you are?" Chen Ming was a little baffled.
"Lieutenant General Huang Haolong arranged for me to come and welcome you. I originally said that it was ten o'clock so that everyone could sleep a little longer, but I didn't expect you to come so early.”the second lieutenant replied.
"In that case, the others haven't arrived yet?”Chen Ming asked.
"Yes, Mr. First Lieutenant, you are the first.”the second lieutenant said.
"Then I'll wait there for a while. If everyone is ready to leave, remember to call me.”Chen Ming pointed to the rest area at the side. Since it wasn't time yet, he planned to rest there.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble, Lieutenant Chen Ming. The lieutenant general informed them that some special circumstances had occurred in the Pacific Ocean and they needed to redeploy quickly. Now, they would send away the commanders who came immediately. There was no need to wait for everyone.”"That's also the reason why I'm waiting for you here," said the second lieutenant. Look, the plane is ready.”
"Oh, really?" Chen Ming suddenly felt that this matter was a little strange. If Lieutenant General Huang Haolong changed his plans, he would probably notify him via email. However, he had not received any emails so far.
There was indeed a transport plane parked in an empty space on the tarmac. However, it was not the Yun-35B large transport aircraft that had sent him here before. It was a Harrier-21A small transport aircraft, a transport aircraft produced by the Zhongying Empire.
"Are you sure you want to use this plane to send me to Fujima Islands?”Chen Ming asked,"If I remember correctly, this Harrier-21A small transport plane can only travel 3000 kilometers. Is the pilot planning to spend the night on the Fujima Islands?"”
"Lieutenant, you might not know this, but the Harmony has already reached the A3 region of the Pacific Ocean. It is only 1200 kilometers away from the Fujima Islands. Using the Harrier-21A is enough to complete the navigation mission.”"After all, the [Thorn Removal] plan is about to begin, and the commander needs to transport them in batches," said the second lieutenant. Using this kind of aircraft could save more fuel and save a lot of resources for the upcoming war.”
Through the previous conversation, Chen Ming realized that there were too many problems with this second lieutenant.
First of all, since they wanted to save resources, why did they have to leave in batches? The reason was that they needed to redeploy quickly, but if the situation was urgent, why would they consider saving resources?
Secondly, the Harrier-21A small transport aircraft was produced by the Zhongying Empire. This type of aircraft had a small transport capacity and a weak endurance. The Republic of Donghuang only ordered 20 of them because of their maneuverability and stealth, but these 20 were not in service on the Harmony.
Lastly, how could a second lieutenant know about the upcoming war? If Chen Ming remembered correctly, the [Thorn Removal] plan was a Class A military secret. It was considered to be the authority he had with his special identity as a commander. He was still required to delete the documents he received within 24 hours. The question was, how could this ordinary navy second lieutenant know about this plan?
"Hmm, Commander, are we leaving? I want to wait for Sister Quincy here." Lefay tugged at Chen Ming's sleeve and asked.
Looking at Lefay in front of him, Chen Ming suddenly thought of something. The fact that Lefay was given to me by the lieutenant general wasn't a secret. It wasn't difficult for some people to know about this, so they must know that I had contact with the captain. Now, this second lieutenant actually knew about the [Thorn Removal] plan, and the person who came to pick me up was a Harrier-21A that didn't belong to the [Harmony]. According to the above situation, there was only one person who came to pick me up-the [ONI] people.
"We won't wait for your sister Quincy this time. Anyway, they will come back to our defense zone later. You can go and play with them then.”Chen Ming rubbed Lafite's head and said,"Someone is still waiting for us. Let's go."”
Lefay twisted her body and pretended to be angry."Oh, Commander, don't shake me, but since you can go to Sister Quincy, I'll forgive you.”
"Let's go, Second Lieutenant. I'm ready.”Chen Ming held Lafite's hand and said,"I'll go with my [Ship Girl]. You guys should have no objections, right?"”
" Of course." The second lieutenant smiled awkwardly."You and [Ship Girl] are going out to sea to protect the peace of mankind. How can I object?”
Chen Ming didn't look at the second lieutenant who made a " please " gesture to him. He directly led Lefay onto the Harrier-21A small transport plane that was ready to take off.
As soon as he boarded the plane, the darkness in the cabin made Chen Ming a little uncomfortable. In his haziness, he saw a person sitting in a seat in the cabin.
"I'm sorry to use this kind of plane to pick you up. This is the best plane I can use within my authority.”The person sitting suddenly said.
At this time, the cabin door had been closed, and the transport plane had begun to take off. After Chen Ming adapted to the illusion of the cabin, he saw the colonel rank on the shoulder of the person sitting on it and said indifferently,"I am honored to hear this honorific, dear colonel.”
"I'm sorry that my subordinate messed up. I really want to fire him after hearing his flawed explanation.”the colonel said jokingly.
" Things aren't as bad as you think." Chen Ming picked up Lafite and placed her on a seat. He helped her fasten her seatbelt, then found a seat and sat down."At least my [Ship Girl] and I are already on board, aren't we?”
"You may have misunderstood. I just want to understand some things. We have no ill intentions.”
"Oh, really?" Chen Ming's tone suddenly turned cold."[ONI], who only knows how to shoot at his own people, actually said that he had no ill intentions. Can I tell you that this is the biggest joke I've heard this year?”
"It seems like you already know that I'm from [ONI].”The colonel raised his hand helplessly.
Chen Ming smiled and turned to look at the blue sky and white clouds outside the cabin."With the mistakes of your subordinates and a little simple reasoning, it's easy for a slightly smarter person to guess, isn't it? Respected Colonel."
"Thank you for finding the flaw in our plan. It seems that I really have to fire that stupid second lieutenant when I go back.”The colonel sitting at the side also laughed.
(I don't know why Feilu's review is a little slow. I clearly posted at 8 am and 2 pm, but it's still not past. I'm very confused about his review method, but I'll post a chapter of 3000 words every day. As for when it's reviewed, you can read it. If it doesn't pass, I'll be very anxious. Please understand.)）
