Chapter 1 Conversation with Lou Lou Lou Cruz
Chapter 1 of the Battle Song of the Angels in the third part of the battle with Lou Lou Lou Cruz
C.E.712/8
In the captain's room of the Nazca-class high-speed battleship Vissalis of the Zaft Army. The captain's quarters, which are five times the size of the average crew's room, are decorated with the beauty of an ancient castle in the 16th and 17th centuries, and are full of romantic aristocratic atmosphere.
"It's a luxury." I glanced around the room and couldn't help but exclaim, "But it's a good match for that guy." Thinking of this, I glanced at the blonde man in the metal mask out of the corner of my eye. Still as elegant and cold as half a year ago, sitting in front of the wine cabinet intently shaking a bottle of red wine that looks a little old, he is simply a perfect work of art.
Law, still in that unhurried manner, shook the bottle of red wine, carefully poured two glasses, and then walked to the table and sat down.
"C.E. '36 years old, there's not much left. If it weren't for the sake of entertaining you, I would never have been willing to take it out. Law handed me a glass of wine with a smile, and then looked intently at the blood-red liquid in front of him.
Naturally, I wouldn't be polite to him, I took the glass of red wine and poured half a glass, and Lao, who was savoring it, saw my behavior like a cow chewing a peony, and the face of the ice cube that seemed to have remained unchanged for thousands of years also had a distressed convulsion.
"What, it's distressing?" I looked at him with some pride, and I felt a great sense of accomplishment to be able to make this ice sculpture man show such a vivid expression.
"Nothing." After just one sentence, Law's face returned to calm, and then he continued to taste the red wine in the glass: "Anyway, without you, I will only take it out when I entertain Jill, but Jill doesn't drink, so it's a waste to put it away, it's better to use it to greet you as a layman." ”
"You guy." I smiled wryly and shook my head, I had long been accustomed to Lao's swearful way of speaking without dirty words, and I knew that it was impossible to outperform him in words, so I had to treat him as a deaf ear.
I looked at the crystal cup in my hand with a little red eyes, and the ancient painting on the wall that didn't look like a fake, and said a little sourly: "You are really rich, you can use such a high-end luxury, I don't know when the treatment of Officer Zaft has become so good...... I said you, you can't be embezzling, right? ”
"I admire your imagination, but I still want to tell you that what you imagine is pure nonsense." By this time, Rau had finished drinking the red wine in his glass, took out a silk handkerchief, and gently wiped the wet stains from his mouth with a graceful gesture that made me mad with jealousy, but I couldn't learn anything.
"This is two and a half months after your arrival in Orb, and Chairman Sarah has begun a massive conscription campaign in preparation for the great war that is coming. In order to attract people to sign up for the army, the treatment of military personnel has been improved to a large extent. For example, the monthly allowance of an officer like me is twice as high as before, and the average soldier has increased it by 50 percent. As an elite member of the Nebula Medal, we also enjoy a series of generous privileges, that is, in the name of an individual, before the retirement from the army, we can use the state's items such as works of art to preserve their value. ”
"To put it bluntly, it is to let you enjoy the cultural life of the superior people before you die fighting for the country, and if you are lucky enough not to hang up, you can change back before you are discharged from the army." I mocked Chairman Patrick Sarah's demagogic tactics in a disdainful tone. This method seems useless, but it has greatly stimulated people's vanity, and you can imagine how much the Zaft army has increased in the six months since I left.
"Still, Law. You're smart enough to get all this stuff on a battleship. By the time the ship is sunk, you'll be able to take these priceless antiques with you. ”
"No, I just love living on a battleship." Law's tone was very flat, but I felt a murderous aura from it.
"Haha...... Hey...... Sorry, I'm just kidding. "I smiled dryly and changed the subject: 'What the hell do you think about that battleship of the Earth Army?'
"Sink it as soon as possible, of course. Speaking of which, there have been several times when I was able to complete a task, but it was because someone had a relationship that I messed up. ”
"I want to keep Miss Lux safe, too."
"And before that? Are you here to keep yourself safe, don't tell me you can't run away when you're alone, I won't believe it. Law stared into my eyes as if to find an answer.
"Really...... Can't you be stupid, you're annoying to be smart, but then again, did you really want to sink that ship? I looked at Lo playfully, and then the two tacitly put aside the topic.
Law's thoughts were different from those of Zaft, and he wanted to destroy both the adjuster and the natural man, and for this purpose, he would definitely try his best to maintain the balance of power between the two sides before the end time. In this protracted war, Zaft has relied on his own technology and economic strength to gradually force the Earth Union to the upper hand, at this time, if Zaft gets the latest military information on the Earth Alliance, he will definitely raise his strength to a level in a short period of time, Lao naturally cannot let this kind of thing happen, so let go of the Archangel carrying the information, and then let the Earth Army improve its strength according to the information and then pinch Zaft fiercely is his best choice.
"By the way, I have arranged for Her Royal Highness the princess you rescued, you can go and see her when you have time."
"yes, thank you so much."
Looking at my happy appearance, Lao said with some emotion: "Some things are really unpredictable, originally according to your life experience, we should be like-minded partners." But with Her Royal Highness the princess, we are likely to take two opposite paths, which is the most practical manifestation of the phrase impermanence in life. ”
I smiled and didn't answer. After more than half a year of peaceful and ordinary life, I no longer have the same fierce opposition to Lao's radical ideas as before. It is his business that he wants to destroy the world, and if a huge world is easily destroyed by one person, then I will admit it. Besides, even if I were to say tomorrow in the newspapers of the whole plant that Lou Rue Cruz, a senior officer of Zaft, was a pervert who was trying to destroy the world, it would only end up being me being treated as a psychopath by everyone, and that it would be so difficult for such a trivial matter to realize his mad wish.
"By the way, what does that weird guy do?"
I knew he was asking Joseph, and he replied, "You're going to put him in jail, he's the key to determining whether I'm a sinner or a hero." ”
After more than half a year of espionage career, the final result is a main researcher in charge of Project G in the Orb Dawn Society, which should be passable.
