It's not that I'm worried about gains and losses.

Instead, he had a vague uneasy feeling in his heart, suspecting that the girl was holding back on something big.

Another sea voyage.

Huang Xi walked on the sea and then saw the familiar and friendly sea area.

Everyone returned to the home port and were back at the dock in just a few moments.

New Jersey stood in the open space behind the stone steps and said loudly, "Okay, today's duty ends here, everyone disperse!"

Changchun and Fushun immediately cheered excitedly and shouted in unison, "Bye-bye."

Then he skipped and ran towards the path.

The unicorn seemed much more quiet, and nodded to everyone in a cute and obedient manner, greeting them one by one, "Goodbye, New Jersey sister, Baltimore sister..."

Béarn also nodded gently to everyone and said goodbye.

The same is true of Huang Xi.

But my eyes were always on New Jersey.

The girl probably noticed his gaze, and she briefly counted the previous spoils. Then she nodded slightly at him and left along the path.

This move made Huang Xi a little confused.

He blinked and watched the girl's figure disappear at the end of the path from afar.

This confirmed that she had indeed left and was not doing anything weird.

I guess I can't hold it in anymore.

After a brief moment of hesitation, he put it out of his mind.

Although they encountered Sirens while on duty, they were moving very fast from the beginning, so the time was only a little after five o'clock.

It was just time for dinner.

Huang Xi thought about it and walked along the path, and soon arrived at the cafeteria.

But he did not stop, instead he continued to move forward.

A few more minutes passed, and a brown two-story building gradually emerged from the woods.

The five-ridged hall with pediment is covered with layers of thick tiles.

The walls are covered with small white windows, and from the outside it looks as if the entire wall is hollowed out.

He continued walking forward and soon heard the sound of splashing sea water.

The golden beach appeared before our eyes, with two parasols, one red and one blue, and white lounge chairs underneath.

But it’s not too early now, and there is no one on the beach.

But Huang Xi didn't come here for the beach.

He walked to the side of the brown building and followed the gravel path to the platform in front of it. The red and white awning extended outward, almost encompassing the entire platform.

If you continue walking forward, you can follow a slightly steep staircase to the beach.

But he had reached his destination.

The store at the home port.

He walked to the door of the building and looked inside through the transparent glass. He saw a green cat girl sitting lazily behind the counter, playing with her mobile phone out of boredom.

This surprised him a little.

Because the last time I came here, the one looking after the store was a ship girl named Shiranui.

Sitting on a suspended ship, with many ghost lights floating around, it gives people a feeling that he is extremely difficult to mess with.

But this green cat girl...isn't this Akashi?

After thinking for a moment, he pushed the door open and walked in. The girl behind the counter immediately raised her head and twitched her furry ears. "Hmm? Baltimore, welcome, meow? Is there anything you want, meow?"

"I'll just take a look."

Huang Xi said, his eyes casually sweeping around the store.

Although it looks like a two-story building from the outside, it actually only has one story inside, and the glass windows all around make the inside appear exceptionally bright.

The space doesn't look large, but it is filled with several shelves densely packed with merchandise.

There are some strange things that are obviously for KanColle, but there are also some ordinary goods, just like an ordinary store.

Huang Xi searched for a while and found what he needed.

A bag of nougat.

He narrowed his eyes, reached out to pick up the bag, and returned to the counter, "How much is this?"

"This? 5 supplies, meow."

"Five supplies?" Huang Xi nodded, his face expressionless, and then asked, "What if I don't have any money?"

Chapter 091 How to buy things without money? (Additional update)

"You didn't bring any money, meow?"

Akashi stood up with a bang, his golden eyes gleaming brightly, staring at him warily, "You can't buy on credit, meow. If you don't have money, there's no way, meow!"

"Don't worry, I didn't say I wanted to buy it on credit."

Huang Xi smiled, looking a little helpless.

Akashi breathed a sigh of relief and slowly sat back in his chair. His ears, which had just become a little irritated, softened again.

"I mean... can you pay the bill in a different way, or in other words, can you pay it later?"

Huang Xi smiled and continued to ask.

Before Akashi could even sit still, he jumped up again, raised his little hand and rushed towards the nougat in his hand, and said hurriedly, "Isn't this on credit? Give it back to me quickly, meow!"

Huang Xi raised his hand, allowing Nougat to avoid the little guy's attack, and then said, "Don't be anxious, just listen to me."

Akashi puffed up his little face, but still stood on the chair, supported his hands on the glass counter, and stared at him.

Huang Xi showed a kind smile and said, "Your place... seems to be a little short of manpower recently?"

Although he said this, he seemed full of confidence.

But in fact, Huang Xi had no idea.

The last time I passed by, I did hear the ship girl named Shiranui say that there was a shortage of people here.

But this time the person looking after the store turned out to be Akashi, who might have been a hired employee.

He stared at the girl with a little expectation, hoping that his luck would not be too bad.

Akashi was stunned when he heard that. He stroked his chin slightly and showed a thoughtful expression. "Recently, I am indeed a little too busy. If you can come and help..."

She thought for a while, then pointed at the nougat in Huang Xi's hand and said, "I can give this to you, meow."

Huang Xi was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect that this seemingly cute little guy could be so black-hearted.

"My help is worth five supplies?"

"Then how many do you want, meow?" Akashi became alert.

"Not to mention the same salary as yours, but at least 80% of it. That's the bottom line."

"What bottom line meow? There's no such high bottom line meow!"

Akashi was immediately unhappy and jumped up to try to grab the nougat in his hand. But because the girl was quite short, even if she cheated by standing on a chair, she was still a little short.

Huang Xi pressed the little guy's head to calm him down, and said seriously, "Have you thought it through? If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."

"I……"

Akashi subconsciously wanted to reject it, but he stopped at the most critical point, was silent for a moment, and whispered, "Eighty percent is too much, meow, at most sixty percent, meow."

"Okay, it's a deal." Huang Xi nodded, stretched out his right hand and smiled, "Happy cooperation."

Akashi didn't say anything, she felt that her bid seemed a little too high.

However, Huang Xi had already forcefully shaken the girl's hand, and then stuffed the nougat into his pocket. "Then this will be a souvenir of our successful cooperation."

"Why are you taking souvenirs from my shop, meow?"

"Don't worry about these details." Huang Xi laughed cheerfully, paused, and his expression became more serious, "Then let's talk about the specific arrangements."

"Okay." Akashi obviously had an idea in mind. As soon as he finished speaking, he started to introduce, "Then you can come here starting from tomorrow, meow, then..."

"and many more."

Huang Xi waved his hand, interrupting the girl's speech, "I won't come."

"You're not coming over meow?" Akashi tilted his head, looking confused, "How are you going to look after the store if you don't come over meow?"

"I didn't say I was coming over to look after the store?" Huang Xi spread his hands and explained before Mingshi became completely confused, "But someone will come over. I can't say who it will be, but it will definitely be someone."

Akashi looked at him in silence, then suddenly jumped up, leaped from behind the counter in a rather challenging arc, and rushed towards him, "The cooperation is cancelled, give my things back to me quickly!"

Huang Xi was stunned. He had never expected that the girl's athletic ability was so strong. He didn't have time to dodge and was pounced on by Mingshi.

But her little arms and legs were very strong. She hung on his body like an octopus, held his hands tightly, and then began to look for nougat.

But no matter how powerful it is, it's just a little guy.

Huang Xi was caught off guard for a moment and was overtaken by her.

When he reacted, he shook his right hand and broke free from Akashi's arms, then did a 360-degree spin and hit the little guy directly on the butt.

"Snap——" a crisp sound suddenly rang out.

Mingshi's pupils shrank, and he no longer bothered about the contract and the nougat. He covered his butt and jumped off Huang Xi, his face flushed as he shouted, "All for you, all for you, meow."

"Um, calm down first."

Huang Xi's face was also slightly embarrassed.

In fact, he was aiming at Akashi's spine at first.

The spine is a good place; although it looks solid, it can be easily dislocated with a slight side force.

After all, sometimes the body's instinctive reaction is faster than the mind.

Although this is not his body, some things seem to be engraved in his genes and are not so easy to change.

However, he still reacted at the last moment. Not only did he reduce a lot of the force, but he also slightly changed the target, making the hitting point seem slightly more harmless.

Probably harmless to humans and animals.

Huang Xi looked at the little guy in front of him who had a toothache and continued, "Mingshi, calm down first."

"I'm already calm, meow. I don't want the nougat, meow." Akashi sniffed, hugged his butt and slowly returned to the counter, looking pitiful.

Huang Xi was very helpless.

Even though the little guy said so, he couldn't just leave like that.

Otherwise, what's the difference between this and just snatching a bag of nougat from Akashi?

In order to pay off the debt, you choose to rob a bank?

And the purpose of his coming here this time was not just for a piece of nougat.

Huang Xi looked at Ming Shi silently until the latter calmed down a little, then continued, "It's true that I can't come, and it's also true that other people are coming. You don't have to worry about that."

Akashi blinked and subconsciously wanted to sit on the chair. But just as he sat down, his face changed, he stood up with a breath of cold air, found an empty seat next to him, hugged his butt and asked, "I don't know who it is, meow?"

"That's right, because I'm not sure either." Huang Xi said helplessly. He didn't know who he would become next time.

Akashi said nothing, but just looked at him silently. His golden eyes were turbulent, but very impressive.

For some reason, he actually saw a hint of resentment in such a small face.

But after being resentful for a long time, the little guy finally said, "Tell me more specifically, meow."

Chapter 92 Persuasion and Concern

Hearing this, Huang Xi knew that the girl probably agreed.
