Chapter 80: Can We Join the Navy
"Vomit~"
“Wow~”
Looking at the navy members who were vomiting loudly, Eddie and the adjutant said a few times at the same time.
After handing Eddie a cup of coffee and being rejected, the adjutant leaned against the wall and said to him.
"These navy have a little poor psychological endurance. How can they survive on the sea like this?"
Eddie glanced at him and said disdainfully.
"Tsk, I'm so embarrassed to say that they were not the same at the beginning."
It happened that this sentence was heard by the few naval soldiers who were vomiting. They all looked at the adjutant inexplicably, as if they said it again, aren't you the same?
The adjutant pretended to drink a sip of water to hide his embarrassment.
I thought you would be embarrassed to say, how many pirates you met can be complete, the lightest is missing arms and legs, and the more miserable it can't even tell the human appearance.
I always say that I have to fight with pirates with a smile.
That's right, you did it, it's okay to be smirking. The more you smile like you usually do, the more ruthless you will be...
The adjutant looked at Eddie who was as plain as water and thought, this time he probably laughed quite realistically. The broken limbs and legs of the little one hundred people probably couldn't even make up fifty sets of corpses...
The adjutant took another sip of water and then changed the subject.
"What are you going to do with those kids."
Eddie exhaled a heavy breath of smoke and looked at the island that was getting farther and farther away, and he said helplessly.
"Just like before, I will send it to the orphanage in the headquarters first, so that they can get out of this incident first. After that, they will join the navy and if they want to return to their ordinary lives, they will send them to some island life."
The adjutant nodded. This arrangement is indeed the best...
At this time, a riot broke out from the cabin where the soldiers were resting.
Eddie and the adjutant heard the commotion and looked at each other, then quickly walked towards the cabin.
Before they arrived, they both knew what was going on.
I heard the navy inside say, "You go in first, I will go back and report to Lieutenant General Eddie, it won't be long."
And there was a tender, but still unyielding voice in it.
"No, we will meet your lieutenant general now! We will!"
Just as the two soldiers were worried about these little guys, they heard the sound.
"What's going on? What's wrong with these little guys?" Eddie walked in with a stern face and asked the soldier.
The navy soldier saluted Eddie and said.
"Lt. General Eddie, these little guys want to see you, but..."
In the end, the navy was a little embarrassed...
Eddie nodded, and then the adjutant nodded to them and asked them to go out first.
After the two naval soldiers walked out, there were only Eddie, the adjutant, and the six little guys left in the room.
Eddie asked them with his hands behind his back.
"You have something to come to me..."
Seeing Eddie, who was stern and a bit fierce, four younger children hid directly behind the two slightly older children.
The two slightly older children gritted their teeth, thrust their chests, and plucked up the courage to say to Eddie.
"Are you the lieutenant general?"
When Eddie heard him say this, he nodded and admitted it, waiting for the child to say the rest.
At the same time, he was also thinking about the child, what they wanted to say to him...
Why did you return to the warship or look for your parents and relatives?
But the child's answer surprised Eddie, or was surprised.
And it was not just Eddie, but when he heard the child's words, the adjutant also had a surprised expression on his face.
I heard the child say loudly: "We are going to join the Navy!!"
Um?
Eddie was a little surprised when he heard this, but his expression was well controlled. When he saw his adjutant, he coughed lightly.
When the adjutant heard Eddie's voice, he put away the surprised expression on his face and returned to his calmness to look at the children.
Eddie looked at the kids again and he asked.
"Why do you join the Navy? Do you know what's going on on the island?"
He said it was you, but he kept looking at the two older children, especially the boy who was talking to him.
The child who was staring at Eddie kept looking down when he heard Eddie's words, lowered his head and said to Eddie: "Can we go outside and talk..."
Eddie nodded and took him out, but the child beside him was talking to the four little guys and ran out, leaving only the four youngest children in the cabin.
When we got outside, Eddie and the adjutant were quietly waiting for the child to say something.
The child lowered his head, while the other child pulled the corner of his clothes.
The child who was silent for a long time and lowered his head said slowly.
"I know, I know everything. Our village was looted by hateful pirates. My parents and village chief all died, only me and a few younger brothers and sisters survived..."
After saying this, the child suddenly raised his head and stared at Eddie with his hatred eyes, growling in a hoarse voice.
"I want to take revenge! We want to take revenge!!"
"Joining the Navy is the best way for us to avenge one pirates!!"
After saying this, the child seemed to have grown up a lot suddenly, looking straight into Eddie's eyes even more bravely.
Eddie didn't say anything, but just looked at him quietly. The adjutant beside him didn't say a word, and the atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.
It took a long time before Eddie sighed slowly.
This time, his expression became much gentler, and he slowly squatted down. He looked at the child and asked in a gentle tone.
"Child, how old are you this year..."
"Thirteen years old!" the child said firmly.
Eddie turned his gaze to another child and asked, "Where is him?"
"I'm eleven..."
Before the older child could speak, the slightly smaller child said directly.
Eddie nodded at the two of them, indicating that he understood.
But they answered their words, but raised their hands and rubbed the heads of the two children, and then said softly.
"Sleep, let's talk about it after a while..."
The two children felt the warm big hands on their heads. The older child couldn't help crying at the end, and then slowly leaned against Eddie's body and fell asleep.
And the younger child fell asleep shortly after.
Eddie signaled the adjutant to pick up the smaller child on his body, and at the same time signaled the navy soldiers around him to keep quiet.
The two of them picked up a child, and the adjutant asked softly: "Lieutenant General Eddie, what's going on~"
Eddie also replied softly: "It's nothing, it's just a few hints, not even an illusion~"
Hearing this, the adjutant didn't ask any more questions.
And the two children, perhaps because they were picked up, were holding by the adjutant and muttered a dream.
But Eddie didn't care and signaled the adjutant and himself to take them back to the room.
After soothing the other four little guys in the room for a while, letting them fall asleep, the two walked out of the room.
Eddie reignited the unsmoked cigar just now, and asked the adjutant beside him as he walked.
"What did that child just said? Is it a dream?"
The adjutant replied: "Well, it should be..."
"What did he say?"
The adjutant looked at Eddie inexplicably: Daughter of the Admiral, are you curious about what a child is doing in his sleep.
Eddie glanced at him, then looked ahead and said, "Can't I be curious? I'm only twenty-one years old, I'm just a child."
The adjutant patted his forehead, and often ignored Eddie's age because he was too strong. Only then did he remember that he was only twenty-one years old this year.
The adjutant said, "It's nothing. The child said, 'Sister, can we join the Navy'."
Eddie said 'oh' and continued to walk to the fore deck of the warship with his adjutant to see how the soldiers were vomiting.
But Eddie suddenly realized something.
He staggered, then stared at the adjutant with wide eyes, took the cigar in his mouth, and confirmed to the adjutant.
"Sister?! You said sister??"
The adjutant looked at Eddie in such a shock and replied that it was sister.
Hearing the exact answer, Eddie picked up the cigar and sucked twice, then made a series of actions that were very different from his usual ones.
The adjutant looked at Eddie who was scratching his head and laughed, thinking to himself: It's really uncommon for Eddie like this. This is just twenty years old.
