Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1222 The Only Dark Cuisine Chef in the Donghuang Camp

Finally, under Lin Lan's suggestion, the little koi fish Jianqiang chose the line "Bei He Zhui Zhi Yan Yan Xi" which Hai Tian took from the ancient Donghuang Warring States Period poetry collection "Jiubian" and named it Yanyan.

Through the introduction of the three Donghuang ship girls who accompanied him, Lin Lan also roughly understood the basic structure and function of the observation hall.

It was different from the multifunctional super cruise ship in his port area that was jointly built by all camps.

The huge and magnificent observation hall is actually more like a comprehensive facility built by the Donghuang ship girls in the temporary port area.

On weekdays, this place will be set up as the Donghuang Culture Exhibition Hall.

Haitian and her colleagues' calligraphy and painting works are hung or displayed in the hall as decorations and exhibits.

Unless there is a combat mission or to discuss important matters of the camp, Yixian will basically not call everyone here.

Of course, the main function of the Observation Hall is to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the temporary port area.

Whenever a traditional Donghuang festival comes, such as the Spring Festival or the Dragon Boat Festival, the entire temporary port area and the interior of the observation hall will be decorated with a festival theme, and the Donghuang ship girls will also have dinner together in the observation hall.

Although there are few people on the Donghuang ship, the decoration work is not difficult thanks to the help of the barbarians.

"Every festive occasion makes me miss my family... When the commander is not around, everyone is in low spirits even on holidays."

Listening to Yixian's soft voice, Lin Lan smiled and comforted him:
"I will always be by your side from now on and will never make you worry again."

As a Donghuang native, Lin Lan could certainly understand the feeling of longing conveyed by Yixian.

Hearing his answer, the smiles on the faces of the three Donghuang ship girls became even wider.

Hai Tian gently introduced to him the ink paintings and calligraphy works hanging on the walls and pillars of the viewing hall, and told Lin Lan the historical stories of Donghuang one by one.

No matter what questions Lin Lan asked, Hai Tian could answer them fluently, like a walking Donghuang encyclopedia.

This made Lin Lan look at the light cruiser girl with admiration in his eyes. She was indeed worthy of being the well-read Hai Tian.

But just when Lin Lan, led by the three Donghuang ship girls, was visiting the viewing hall and enjoying this beautiful and warm time.

He suddenly smelled a burnt smell entering his nose.

Not only him, Haitian also stopped introducing him.

The silver-haired literary girl frowned and looked ahead at the road, and whispered strangely:

"Turning right at the fork in the road ahead is the kitchen at the Observation Hall...but why is the smell so pungent?"

You know, this is the kitchen of the Donghuang camp.

Lin Lan was even more certain that almost no Donghuang ship girl would create such a burnt smell in the kitchen when cooking.

But when he thought of this, he shuddered suddenly.

Because he realized that the word he subconsciously used was "almost" instead of "all".

In the Donghuang camp, there is a ship girl who absolutely cannot be put in the kitchen!
"Not good, Ji'an!"

As he shouted the name, he quickly rushed to the corner ahead. Yixian, Zhenhai and Haitian's faces all changed and they followed him closely.

Just as the commander said, they had already guessed who the culprit of this "kitchen catastrophe" was.

Lin Lan stood at the corner and looked to the right, only to see thick smoke coming out of a closed wooden carved door into the corridor.

To his surprise, a Donghuang ship girl also ran towards the kitchen in panic at the other end of the corridor.

It was the little dragon girl with long sky blue hair, Long Wu, whom he had just met in the morning.

"Commander... and Yixian, Zhenhai, and Haitian?"

Long Wu was wearing a white apron in front of her off-shoulder white and blue dress. When she saw them, she stopped and shouted in surprise. But before Lin Lan could ask Long Wu what happened, the wooden door of the kitchen was pushed open, and then there was a crisp cough from a girl in the kitchen:

"Ahem... Clearly, it succeeded at noon today, why did it go wrong at this critical moment..."

Amid the smoke, a tall young girl with long dark purple hair and wearing a dark blue silk dress with a lotus pattern on it walked out of the kitchen.

Seeing that the appearance of this Donghuang ship girl coincided with the game portrait in his memory, Lin Lan smiled with relief.

This tall light cruiser girl was exactly the Donghuang ship girl he had mentioned in Nanzhou before, who supported his cooking skills.

Ji'an.

"Jian! When did you sneak into the kitchen?!"

Compared to the smile on Lin Lan's face, Long Wu's eyes almost went dark the moment he saw Ji'an walking out of the kitchen, and he questioned with some anger.

"Ahahaha... Sorry Long Wu, I wanted to show the commander my improved cooking skills, but I messed it up again~"

Ji'an, who was arrested on the spot by Long Wu, trembled and forced a guilt-ridden smile to Long Wu.

"You...you...you're making me so mad! You should explain to the commander!"

However, Long Wu obviously knew the priorities of things and had no time to blame Ji An. He said these words in a panic and rushed into the kitchen like a gust of wind.

Seeing the impetuous Long Wu, Lin Lan couldn't help but recall the lines that Long Wu had said to him seriously in the game:
"Commander, the kitchen is a battlefield!"

He didn't take it too seriously at first, but the anxious look on Long Wu's face just now perfectly confirmed it to him.

No wonder the Donghuang ship girls are always reluctant to let Long Wu enter the kitchen.

This petite little dragon girl, who is as pretty as a loli, really cares about the operation of the kitchen.

"Eh? The commander is here already, isn't he?"

Just as Ji An was staring blankly at Long Wu cleaning up the mess she had made in the kitchen, muttering to herself in confusion, a voice that the girl had been longing for day and night reached her ears from the other end of the corridor:

"Jian, I have seen your progress, it is really remarkable.

"At least the kitchen didn't explode this time."

Ji'an suddenly turned sideways and saw Lin Lan walking towards her with Yixian, Zhenhai and Haitian, with a gentle smile on her face.

Zhenhai, who is a chess friend of Ji'an, also joked with a smile:
"You took advantage of the short time that Longwu and Ding'an took the dishes to the restaurant to sneak into the kitchen. I don't even know what to say to you~"

"commander!"

Turning a deaf ear to Zhenhai's words, Ji'an excitedly flew to Lin Lan the next second and happily hugged him tightly in his arms.

Although Lin Lan had already expected this, when he felt Ji An's soft bridge rubbing against his face, he discovered something that made his breathing quicken.

The Donghuang-style clothing worn by this tall Donghuang girl is the same as Sirius's cheongsam outfit, which is a ready-to-drink style that can be worn right after the lid is opened.

Such an intimate hug made his face wrapped by Ji'an's soft bridge almost directly in front of the other three ship girls.

"Ahem, Ji'an, it's immoral in broad daylight."

Haitian watched all this with a red face, then looked down at the bridge that was very different from Ji'an's. Finally, he couldn't help but cough lightly to remind him.

However, Ji'an was completely immersed in the joy of reuniting with Lin Lan, and it was a long time before he finally let go of Lin Lan, who also had a blush on her face.

Looking at the light cruiser girl in front of him with a face full of joy, Lin Lan couldn't help but sigh that fortunately his Donghuang ship girls would change into the loose yet tight Natlan official robes when traveling.

It would be better for him to admire such bold and attractive costumes in the game in the port area.
