Chapter 5: Siddle and Kara

Chapter 5 of the Battle Song of the Angels: Siddle and Kara

C.E.712/12

After a two-day voyage, I finally returned to PLANT, where I had been away for a long time, and when I looked up, the scenery was really different from when I left half a year ago, and the green spaces and forests everywhere added a layer of nature to this satellite city that was originally full of modernity.

Although I saw the city I had lived in for a long time again, I could not be happy in my heart, and the news from the newsletter last night added a heavy burden to me: on February 11, the Archangel merged with the 8th Fleet, and before the merger, it had engaged three GAT-X series aircraft from the Kamov, and Yitzhak Jiull was wounded. The news seems simple, but those who are interested can easily see the fierceness of the battle at that time. As long as you think of the departure of the two sides at that time, it is not difficult to imagine that the Archangel is fighting against the water, and if it succeeds, it can smoothly join the Eighth Fleet, and if it fails, it can only sleep in the depths of the universe with the unwillingness to complete the mission. And the Zaft army also knows very well that this may be the last chance to complete the mission, if it fails, I am afraid that I will live in the shadow of failure for the rest of my life, and I am afraid it will be difficult to raise my head in front of other soldiers in the future. In this case, the two sides must have made enough effort to fight to the death, and once they face each other, it will definitely be a never-ending situation. Judging from the news, Kira and their luck are good, and they finally survived to the moment of merging with the Eighth Fleet, but they just don't know what happened to Yitzhak's injury, according to the strength of the three of them, Kira can only maintain an undefeated situation in a short period of time even if he tries his best, and the strength of that guy Mu to harass him is there, but it doesn't play a big role with the performance of which Zero, is there any unknown master in the Eighth Fleet?

With a lot of questions, I silently stepped off the shuttle behind Lux and Aslan.

Two people walked up to me, and one of them suddenly reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and my body took a step back in a natural reaction, just dodging the hand.

"Who do I say? It's you two bastards. "After glancing at the two of them, I realized that they were still my acquaintances. In my experience of more than ten years, the scope of communication is not very wide, one of the largest is the military camp where I once lived for five years, everyone in the first mobile brigade did not look up and looked down, almost half of them I knew, but they have all died in the Union 7. Then, during the six months in Heliopolis, the students of the technical college also got to know a lot, and the two of them were haunted by me as soon as I arrived.

"Hey, hey, to my brother who I haven't seen for a long time, is this your attitude like this?" Kara, who wanted to shoot me but was dodged, snorted with dissatisfaction.

"Yo, long time no see, Leonard, I'm relieved to see how well you're doing." Siddle smiled and said hello.

I wasn't surprised to see that these two were okay, when Heliopolis was destroyed by the Zaft army, Kira's first reaction was to worry about the safety of their families, but I was very relieved about these two guys. Don't look at Kara's usual big grin, but in fact, he is a very careful guy in his heart, after all, the people who do their job can have any problems, but carelessness is absolutely undesirable, otherwise a trivial mistake may lead them to a place of no return, and Siddle is a freak who can even count how many hairs he loses every day. There are no less than ten ways to escape prepared by them, and I am afraid that the world will not lose a hair if it is destroyed, and the small battle of Heliopolis will naturally not be difficult for these two.

"Sir, these two are ......," Aslan asked.

"You are the son of the Serar Commissioner, and you belong to Aslan Sarah of Zaft." Siddle stepped forward and said to Aslan: "Introduce myself, I am the current Deputy Minister of Intelligence, the former head of the Heliopolis Intelligence Division, Siddle Rog, and Leonard's actions after arriving in Heliopolis were authorized and directed by us. At that time, we assigned him the highest order to infiltrate the Orb Dawn Society's branch to investigate the information of the new MS of the United Earth Army, so in the subsequent series of operations, Leonard caused a lot of inconvenience to the people of Zaft for the needs of the mission, and I am here to express my deep apologies to you on behalf of the Ministry of Intelligence. ”

Siddle's words were not leaky, not only completely legitimizing my work on the Archangel, but also further blocking the mouths of Zaft's people, especially the inexperienced Aslan, who couldn't find fault with it.

"Where, after all, we are all for the benefit of PLANT, but there is a lack of communication that has led to such things, and the second elder doesn't have to mind." It seemed that Aslan didn't notice the trick in Siddle's words, and replied enthusiastically, but a smile flashed at the corner of Lux's mouth.

"In that case, would we like to talk to Leonard alone for a while, it's about his mission this time." Siddle laughed formulaically.

"Absolutely." Aslan politely stepped back a distance, indicating that he would not eavesdrop.

It wasn't until Aslan was far away that I said to Siddle angrily, "Alright, Siddle, put away your hypocritical smile, it's too fake." ”

"Really, I'm not doing this for you troublemaker." Siddle rubbed his face, reverting to his usual popular look that he would never find on the street.

Kara handed me a small disk and said, "We have arranged everything for you, everything you do on the Archangel from now on is at the behest of our intelligence department, Zaft's guys can't say anything even if they know it, there are some action plans and other things, remember to memorize them quickly and destroy them." ”

"Thank you." I took the disk, and then asked with some confusion: "But why do you help me like this, even if we have been together for more than half a year, it is not enough to do this." Don't tell me what feelings you are, I know exactly how cold-blooded you guys are. ”

"Hey, hey, even if it's true, it's too much for you to be so ruthless." Kara grumbled again, but fell silent as soon as Siddle glared at him.

"Actually, the two of us are Speaker Klein's men." Siddle explained to me, "Although the purpose of the Ministry of Intelligence has always been to help each other, Kara and I have been favored by Speaker Klein for a long time, so we will do our best to help if the Speaker speaks. ”

"Won't this affect you?" Although I was a little incomprehensible to the Speaker for spending such a great price to win me over, they probably wouldn't have asked such a question, and it was probably unknown whether they knew it or not, so I wisely didn't ask again.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem. The destruction of Heliopolis has also caused heavy losses to our intelligence department, and almost all of the strongholds and downlines that we have built up with great difficulty over the years have been destroyed, especially those involved in this incident, probably because they were too close to the Aurora Society, and all of them died heroically when Zaft snatched the MS. Siddle said nonchalantly, but I felt a faint murderous aura in his words.

"If you have any doubts about this, I have a few words for you to convey to you." Siddle probably sensed my confusion and said what I wanted to know: "The Speaker said that if you had to choose between him and Chairman Sarah in the future, I hope you will take his side first. ”

Hearing this, I became more and more confused, Siddle spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Don't look at me, that's what the speaker said, although it is literally easy to understand, but I can't understand the deep things." In fact, from my personal point of view, I also think that the Speaker's bargaining chips against you are too big. ”

I nodded thoughtfully, but my heart was churning like a tsunami, listening to the Speaker's meaning, it seemed that even Chairman Sarah had been trying to win over me, so it seemed that my hundred and dozens of pounds were worth more than I imagined.

**********************************************************************

Still in the elegantly decorated office, Speaker Klein sat quietly as if he were asleep, with only the occasional tapping of his fingers on the table to indicate that he was in a state of concentrated thought.

Across from the Speaker sat a young man with short hair who was very energetic, and his expression was obviously not as relaxed as that of the Speaker. Avery Kassim, who was only in his twenties, was a member of the 12 members of the PLANT's most powerful Supreme Council, although in part because of his status as a protΓ©gΓ© of Speaker Klein, but this was definitely not the main reason, and it was inseparable from his own outstanding talents. At this moment, he said to the Speaker with an anxious face: "My lord, I think your investment in Leonard is too great, although after the success of that plan, a good driver has become very valuable, but for one person to spend so much...... All in all, I suggest you give it another thought. ”

"No, no, Ellie, you haven't met that person, so it's impossible to understand how I feel." The Speaker pondered for a moment, and then said with great firmness: "When he just returned from the battlefield of Junius 7, I felt that not only could he come back alive in such a tragic battle, but also had such a dazzling record, such a person can no longer be described as a genius. In the current situation, every excellent pilot is a very heavy bargaining chip, we are in a weak position in the army, they are already in a weak position in the face of this Sara chairman, once Leonard, the first pilot of PLANT, joins, not only can directly increase our strength, but also with his influence among pilots, we must call on a large number of excellent pilots to join our side. ”
