155. Heavy rain
"Rubbish! Seven people can't catch up with one! ”
One Piece Black Sam kicked one of his subordinates, and the other subordinates hurried: "The boss's mech is too fast, we really can't catch up!" ”
"Humph! It seems that it is really the body of the Ten Swords series. Well, anyway, I know where it fled, and sooner or later it will be mine! ”
…
The colonial satellite Carthage is now in the midst of a massive protest strike to protest their parliament's sale of weapons-producing materials to the HER, claiming that this is aiding and abetting abuse. The Carthaginian parliament's response was simple and brutal, raining rain on all the satellites in an attempt to thwart the demonstrators.
The same is true of the A37 agricultural satellite, where farmers gather in the city square to demonstrate, and no one notices that a humanoid weapon has just fallen into the satellite where they live.
"Wake up, wake up!"
Elizabeth, who was unconscious in the bump because the No. 2 plane crashed into the woods, was woken up by Lin Ao, she first heard the sound of the torrential rain falling on the metal, and then blinked and saw Lin Ao's still unfamiliar face, suddenly remembered something, tears rolled in her eyes and choked up: "Maid... She... Is it dead..."
Lin Ao didn't answer, and after confirming that Elizabeth was not injured, he rummaged through the back of the seat to find something, "I'll let you go down first, don't run far, I don't know where this is." ”
Elizabeth seemed to be still immersed in the grief of the death of the familiar face, Lin Ao shouted a few times but did not respond, so he simply picked up Elizabeth and prepared to transport her down, but he did not expect Elizabeth to resist fiercely.
"Let it go! You bastard! Why didn't you save her at the time!! ”
Lin Ao didn't grasp it steadily, and the two fell to the ground together, but fortunately, they were not far from the ground, and Lin Ao intended to be a cushion to protect Elizabeth from falling on Lin, and he himself was choking on pain.
"Don't make a fuss! You... Don't run! ”
Elizabeth, who fell to the ground, turned her head and ran, and Lin Ao endured the pain to chase after her, but saw the princess turn around and take out a silver pistol and aim it at herself.
"Are you crazy?! Put the gun down! The sound of gunfire will attract don't forgive! Lin Ao shouted.
"Don't come here! I don't trust you! ”
"I've come here with you, and you still don't trust me!?"
Elizabeth shouted hysterically: "Who knows where this is!" Did you bring me here on purpose, who knows if those pirates are your accomplices, who knows if you killed my maids! ”
"Mad woman! You're as crazy as your dad!! ”
"Shut up!! We're enemies, it's your own life, you're just using me to escape from New Rome, aren't you!? It was a good plan, but it came to this point, well... Woooooo
Elizabeth raised her gun and sobbed, Lin Ao wanted to go up and slap her to correct it, but after a moment she was patient: "Listen, I don't want to hurt you." I'm sorry I didn't save your maid, but it was too sudden for me to react! Alas... Please, calm down, I'll hide the mech in a moment, and then try to contact the Osiris. Although the start is different from your plan, I promise to protect you, there is no such thing as a smooth plan! ”
"I, my maid, she has always taken care of me, and I hurt her, woo woo..."
Elizabeth was still sobbing, and Lin Ao repeated her words a few more times, and she finally calmed down. At this moment, both of them were exposed to the heavy rain, and half of their shoes had sunk into the mud. Lin Ao beckoned: "Come here, I'll let the body squat down in a while, and you can sit on the soles of your feet." ”
"Thank you... I'm not going to run, you don't have to worry about me. ”
Seeing that Elizabeth refused to come over, Lin Ao had to hide the body first, he climbed into the cockpit to take out the camouflage cloth that he had just turned out, and after controlling the body to a suitable position, he asked the body to cover the camouflage cloth with his hands like a quilt, and then he climbed out to cover other exposed places, and finally returned to the cockpit to let the AI send a distress signal to the Osiris in a loop.
"Whew..."
After doing this, Lin Ao's clothes had been soaked by the rain, and he saw that Elizabeth was still standing in the rain, and ran over: "I have already contacted the Osiris, but I don't know how long it will take to receive a reply, and it may take a while." ”
Seeing that Elizabeth was indifferent, she said: "This rain will not stop for a short time, go to the cockpit and rest." ”
"Is there such rain on Earth?" She asked suddenly.
"Yes, I've seen it bigger than that."
Elizabeth slowly raised her head, her face facing the rain, and looked at the dark colonial satellite flower board:
"The rain was so cold, and I always thought it was warm... My father hated rain, and I hadn't seen it rain in the capital for as long as I could remember, let alone snow. I often fantasized about playing happily with my sister in the rain or snow, thinking it was a very happy thing, enjoying being able to go to Earth and experience things that I had never seen on a colony moon, but it seemed that I really didn't understand anything. ”
"There is indeed cold rain on earth, but there is also warm rain, and I promise, I will take you to earth."
"You promise? What do you help me get? Elizabeth asked.
Lin Ao asked rhetorically: "Why did you end the war even if you betrayed your father?" ”
"I... I'm for... More people. ”
"That's right!" Lin Ao stepped forward and pressed Elizabeth's shoulder excitedly: "Look at me!" I was originally a refugee! My parents were killed by people in your country, and I am also a victim of war! On Earth, no, in the entire globe there are many people like me, who are even more powerless than I am, praying for an early end to the war, and all you have to do is help them! ”
Growing up with her powerful father, Elizabeth was accustomed to hypocrisy and flattering fear. She had never seen such enthusiastic eyes as Lin Ao at this moment, and for some reason she felt warm in her heart, and her cold body hit by the rain warmed up again.
"I... I know. Well, is there a place for me to sleep? I'm sleepy. ”
"You sleep in the cockpit, I'll help you up."
"Thank you..."
Lin Ao handed the halyard to Elizabeth, who had never used anything so unsafe, and nearly fell off when the halyard was automatically retracted.
"Aren't you coming up? There's still one person left here. She asked.
"No need! I can also shelter from the rain, so you can rest well! ”
Seeing Elizabeth get into the cockpit, Lin Ao sat on the feet of the fuselage tiredly, and sighed: "Osiris, respond to me quickly." ”
…
"Bastard!! What do you all eat? What about my daughter!? Get him back for me! ”
HER Emperor Manfred's roar can be heard in most of the palace, and the disappearance of Princess Elizabeth is originally a secret, but under his loud voice, at least the staff at the bottom of the kingdom can't hide it.
The red knight saw that the black tea in his cup was trembling because of the emperor's roar, and he was worried: "I really can't imagine that the eldest princess who knows how to be knowledgeable will disappear, and it will be bad if she is kidnapped and taken away." ”
The red knight sitting across from him shook his fan lightly: "Are you worried?" ”
The Red Knight looked at him suspiciously: "Aren't you worried?" How is she your cousin too. ”
"I'm sure she'll be fine, it's not my job to find her. From this, Jin Shangyu is also missing, do you think these two are connected? ”
"What are you in? The princess's maid is gone, and I remember when I was in the military academy, the maid walked very close to you. ”
Zhuge Daozi laughed and said: "Don't say goodbye, this matter won't make us suspicious of each other, I'm joking." ”
The red knight put down the teacup and got up: "Thank you for the tea, I'm really worried about Jin Shangyu, if you have any news, please let me know as soon as possible." ”
"You've said this twice, go slowly."
"Also, I heard that the number 2 disappeared, just after the merchant ships of the Moore Chamber of Commerce left New Rome. The merchant ship was attacked by pirates, and it seems that Unit 2 was not found at the scene... Do you have any clues? ”
Before his words were finished, he saw Zhuge Daozi with a hint of surprise that was difficult for ordinary people to detect.
"Don't you know? As soon as it was on the news, if it was the hands of the Mor Chamber of Commerce, it was uncertain that the No. 2 machine might have been snatched by pirates. I'm still going to train new recruits, so I'm leaving. ”
After the red knight left, Zhuge Daozi immediately activated his personal terminal and found this news:
“… At present, the Moore Chamber of Commerce has received the shipwrecked ship Seth, and the pirate Black Sam has claimed responsibility for the attack, and said that he has more than 100 hostages in his hands, and he is demanding a high ransom from the Moore Chamber of Commerce... The following is a list of those who have been identified by DNA in this incident..."
Zhuge Daozi looked through the list of victims and hostages uneasily, but did not find the names of the princess, Lin Ao and the maid.
His head was stunned, the princess was really missing now, and the situation was completely out of his control.
"Was this a mistake I made when I was too young... No, I can't say that Elizabeth is dead, I have to find her, or else..."
Zhuge Daozi turned off his personal terminal and looked up at the window, what he saw was a huge "eye" flashing red.
