"No, there's no mistake! I remember it very clearly, it's this smell, and I will never forget this smell in my life." As she spoke, Hestia actually burst into tears.
Wu Jie suddenly panicked: "Hestia! Hestia! Why are you crying?"
Hestia cried, wiping her tears and said, "Yes, I'm sorry. Please forgive me."
She paused for a moment before saying, "It's just that I was reminded of an old friend..."
"Old friend..." Wu Jie fell silent after hearing this.
After wiping away her tears, Hestia said, "No, it's okay, sir. Take your time eating. I'm done. I'll be leaving now."
Wu Jie suddenly remembered something, but Hestia had already walked out the door. Wu Jie had no time to call her back and could only calm down.
[I'll go find her and ask for details when I have the chance later...] Wu Jie withdrew his thoughts.
The night passed quickly, and the noise of the crowd seemed so detached to Skadi's ears. Standing in front of the office window, Skadi silently watched the lively atmosphere in the cafeteria.
This new commander was able to get along with the ship dancers so quickly. Does he really have the ability, or is it that he has tricked these girls into falling head over heels with his smooth talk?
Because she was scolded by Hestia today, she was in a bad mood, so she kept her head down in the office to handle official business, and even had her meals in the office. So she didn't ask much about Wu Jie, and didn't know how Circe was caught.
This new commander actually has the mood to throw a banquet at night. How... leisurely...
She was already feeling a bit resentful, but then she remembered that this was someone her father had personally recommended, and he had repeatedly mentioned how excellent he was. Never mind… before exploding, she'd just have to endure it for now, as long as he didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
If she hadn't considered that Wu Jie was a commander who came from a place like the Suzaku Battle Dance Troupe, she would probably have wanted to drive Wu Jie away just like Qingqiu Yu did back then.
Looking at the bustling cafeteria, she wondered how Wu Jie had managed to pass Suzaku's rigorous assessment. Was it because he was so handsome? Did he captivate the girls?
Never mind, go to sleep...
--------Dividing line--------
"Hello everyone, my name is Wu Jie, and I'm also the new commander of the 1st Column of the 1st Regiment of the 7th Division. I'm very happy to meet all the flagship captains here." Wu Jie sat at the first seat in the conference room, stood up and saluted all the ship dancers.
Then the captains of each flagship stood up and saluted, and then introduced themselves.
"First Flagship Fleet, Messenger Fleet, Flagship Captain, Jasmine! Meet the Commander!" Jasmine was the first to stand up.
"Second Flagship Fleet, Migratory Bird Fleet, Flagship Captain, White Dove! Greetings, Commander!"
…
"Fifth Flagship Fleet, Coral Fleet, Flagship Captain, Black Pearl! Meet the Commander!"
…
"Seventh Flagship Fleet, Deadwater Fleet, Flagship Captain, Beatrice! Meet the Commander!"
…
Wu Jie nodded. After all, it was an important defense handover meeting, so it was necessary for the captains of each fleet to meet.
"I'm new here, and I don't like the idea of reading documents to everyone for a long time like the old man does. I can't understand what I read, and I'm tired of listening to it. Before I came here, your captain of the Zhongqi team managed this place in an orderly and reasonable manner."
"As for me, I'm just a new commander, nothing more. When I first arrived here yesterday, I checked the defenses and daily patrols here, and instantly felt like I could pack up and go home..."
When Wu Jie said this, there was a sudden burst of laughter in the conference room, and someone couldn't help laughing.
Skadi's expression suddenly turned serious: "Pearl, we're in a meeting, what are you laughing at?"
Black Pearl quickly held back her laughter and said, "Yes, I'm sorry, Captain Zhongqi!" Then she straightened her body.
Wu Jie immediately laughed out loud: "It's okay, it's okay, just laugh if you want to, what I said was actually the truth."
Wu Jie's expression then changed, and the harmonious atmosphere just now disappeared. He said coldly, "However, my investigation has discovered that there is an extremely serious phenomenon here. If we are not careful, the entire Zhongqi Fleet will be implicated! Do you all know what it is?"
All the flagship captains looked at each other. I wonder what Wu Jie meant by this 180-degree turn?
Skadi also looked at Wu Jie with a puzzled look, and Hestia was also very curious.
Wu Jie waited for a while, and when no one spoke, he said coldly, "Captain Jasmine, please stand up and speak."
Jasmine was named. After seeing how powerful Wu Jie was, she knew that the commander must have seen something. She believed that the commander would never do something without a purpose.
Jasmine stood up and thought for a long time, but finally shook her head: "I'm sorry, Commander! I was wrong, I really didn't know!"
Wu Jie was very satisfied with Jasmine's attitude and nodded for her to sit down.
At this time, the Black Pearl who had laughed the most happily suddenly raised her hand.
Wu Jie was a little curious and said, "Tell me!"
Black Pearl stood up and said, "Military discipline is lax, and we will start a war in PART!"
hiss~
Jasmine immediately glared at Black Pearl, which was obviously a reference to the celebration party held by the new commander last night. This was going against the commander.
Wu Jie smiled slightly. He didn't show any sign of being angry. Instead, he said with a faint smile, "That's right. Sit down."
Black Pearl was stunned. She had expected the new commander to at least offer a sarcastic remark, if not a tirade. But she hadn't expected him to just brush it off so casually. Was he showing weakness to the enemy, or simply being timid?
Skadi was also stunned. Although Black Pearl's words were not her instruction, she could clearly see that Black Pearl was helping her to oppose the commander.
Because Black Pearl and I have the best relationship, and Black Pearl must know what happened at the dock at the base gate yesterday afternoon, she is cheering me on.
Although Skadi felt it was very useful, she still didn't want Black Pearl to be the first to take the lead. Doesn't she understand that a new official should make three major moves when taking office?
Wu Jie turned his gaze to the other flagship captains, glanced at them, and said, "Anything else?"
Of course, these flagship captains also knew what happened yesterday afternoon. Looking at the expressions of Skadi, Hestia and the new commander, they did not want to get involved in this vortex of struggle, and hurriedly shook their heads to indicate that they did not know.
Wu Jie nodded and said with a smile, "Very good. Jasmine didn't say it, but Black Pearl made a suggestion, which is very good. Indeed, opening a PART during wartime will have a very bad impact."
Everyone was stunned. Was the new commander truly a pushover? Only Jasmine didn't think so...
