Part 2: The Helpless Journey, Chapter 33, On the Eve of Convergence

C.E.712/4

Since yesterday's interrogation, I have been locked up in a cabin next door to Lux, with complete restrictions on my freedom. Although I couldn't figure out why Mu and Malu let me go so easily at the last minute, according to Millie, who brought me food, Second Lieutenant Bucky Lulu was furious when he returned from arranging for Lux, and had a big fight with the other two officers, and it seemed that because of my appearance, I had to keep my doubts in mind in order to avoid touching the cold-blooded woman's mold.

Before I knew it, it was time for lunch, and Millie brought me lunch on time, but this time Kira and Dol followed.

"Lesser, it's time to eat, today's main course is your favorite steak." Millie was in good spirits at all times, she put the food on the table, and said with a somewhat mischievous smile: "Although I know your real name, I still have a habit of calling you Rayser, you won't mind." ”

"Of course not. Is the name just a code name, wouldn't I be me if I wasn't called this name? "I picked up my knife and fork and started cutting the steak.

"No, no, I still think the name Leonard is more imposing. Zaft's strongest MS driver, I didn't expect that I could be a friend of such a famous person, and I would have more capital to show off when I said it in the future. "Dole was more excited than usual today, and kept staring at me with starry eyes.

I coughed twice unaccustomedly, put down the knife and fork in my hand and asked, "Dore, I'm a soldier of Zaft, and those achievements that look glorious are all written with the life of the Earth Army, don't you think there's something wrong?" ”

"What does it matter?" Dole said disapprerovingly, "I'm a citizen of Orb, and the war between Earth Union and PLANT is none of my business. Besides, most of the enemy planes you shot down were destroyed in the Battle of Junius 7, and I've never taken the guys who used nuclear bombs and brazenly claimed to be enemy self-detonation attacks. ”

I smiled and didn't evaluate Doerr's values, in the current universe, everyone has their own position, and people who stand in different positions often come to very different conclusions, and this is not something that can be changed in one or two sentences, otherwise there would have been no war in the world for a long time.

"Oh, by the way, how is Miss Lux today, have you eaten?" I asked Millie in passing, but what I didn't expect to be greeted by Milly's wry smile.

"Hey, what's wrong, why are you putting on a face like that?"

"This ...... Forget it, I'll take you to her and let her tell you about it herself. "Millie's unspeakable look made me feel a little strange.

"Is it okay to let me pass?"

"Well, that's what the captain agreed." Dole opened the door, and two soldiers pointed their guns at me. Although the threat of two guns to me is almost non-existent, it is somewhat of a comfort in their eyes. Escorted by them, I came to the cabin of Lux next door, and strangely the door was open, and two heavily armed soldiers stood in the doorway nervously as if they were facing a great enemy. It wasn't until I went in and found Lux sitting in a chair that I breathed a sigh of relief.

"That...... Did something happen? "Anyone who sees this should know that something is happening, and the people in the room look somewhat unnatural except for Lux.

"I'll tell you." Sai, who had been sitting in the room since we came in just now, said, "Just now when we were eating in the restaurant, this young lady suddenly appeared here, but the door to her room was obviously closed, so everyone was a little nervous. Then Frey may have been a little frightened and said something rude to the young lady, so she ......"

"That's right. I think I probably get it. Judging from Sena's slightly ashamed expression, Frey's words must have been quite hurtful, and the decision was not as simple as mere impoliteness as he said, and it may have involved some taboo topics between natural people and adjusters.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but snort coldly, since I rescued Miss Frey, her squeamish way of speaking and habits have always made me feel uncomfortable. But since she's never gone too far, and she's the woman Kira likes, I've always turned a blind eye to her behavior, but now that she's getting into trouble with Miss Lux, I don't mind teaching him a lesson before leaving.

Seeing that my face was not very good, Sai immediately got up and said, "Let's talk first, I still have to go to see Frey, I guess she should be angry." ”

"Uh...... Well, we're gone. Millie also felt that the atmosphere here was a little delicate, and pulled Dole to walk quickly to the door, Kira also followed silently, and when they were about to go out, Millie turned back to me and said, "Lesser, let's go back first, just now the captain agreed to let you stay in a cabin normally, and someone will come to pick you up in the evening." ”

I said yes, and they closed the door and walked out, leaving me and Lux alone in the room.

"Miss Lux, you don't have anything to do." I asked, a little nervously.

"Well, don't worry, I'm fine. That Miss Frey just misunderstood the adjuster, I'm sure she'll want to open it one day, and although she said something extreme just now, I didn't take it to heart, I don't believe you asked Haro. ”

Lux gently lifted Haro up in front of me, and the careful look made me a little jealous. Haro jumped on my knee and shouted, "Leonard, long time no see, Haro misses you so much." ”

I couldn't help but laugh when Aslan made these little robots with Lux's personality in mind, so he added a self-learning program to them. However, due to the small space of the robot, the program is only a very rudimentary version, and the learning efficiency is not high. However, Lux treats them as friends, and takes the trouble to talk to them every day, and over time these little ones have a great degree of command.

I held Haro up in front of me, and the little guy kept opening and closing a pair of tiny eyes, as if grimacing at me. My face changed suddenly, and I whispered, "Miss Lux, did Hello just help you open the electronic lock of the door?" "When I saw Haro's delicate structure, I remembered that Aslanke was a mechanical genius, and his specialization in this area was not much worse than Kira's programming, and it was entirely possible to put a *** or something like that in Haro's body.

Lux nodded, "yes, but I just went out to get some water and food, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem." ”

"Not that problem." I smiled helplessly and said, "After all, we are now in the enemy's warship, so we must always take care of some positions and other issues." Moreover, the attitude of natural people towards the adjusters is very subtle, and I don't know how many people on this ship are as hostile to the adjusters as Frey. Kira and I still have the ability to protect ourselves, but you ......"

"That's right." Lux lowered her head a little distressed: "But it's so boring to be alone in the room, and I really want to have a lively meal with everyone." From time to time, there was an imperceptible sadness in his speech.

I realized that I had neglected Lux's feelings, my friends who had been with me for a few years were in danger of dying, and this sixteen-year-old girl should be very afraid of being alone, but I always cruelly told her to be alone. With pity in my heart, I whispered, "It's okay, Lux, now I'm by your side to talk to you, if there's anything to keep in mind, it's easier to say it."

"Actually, there's something I wanted to tell you just now." Lux regained her original gentle and demure appearance, and told me slowly, "Mr. Kira seems to have been hurt a lot when Miss Frey said that just now. I could tell that he must have liked Miss Frey, and it must have been very uncomfortable for someone he liked to say something like that.

I nodded, remembering that Kira hadn't said a word just now, something was really wrong, and I just crawled on the table and thought with a sad face.

Lux suddenly laughed and said, "How about I sing to you?" Which one would you like to hear? ”

"Really? That's great, but unfortunately there is no sound equipment here, I want to listen to the song "Under the Silver Blue Starry Sky"

A moment later, a beautiful singing voice came from this small cabin that touched the officers and men of the ship
