Part 2: The Journey of Helplessness Chapter 24 (1)

Back in my days at PLANT, I had heard that the United Earth Force was not monolithic, and that the struggle between large and small groups was fierce, even more brutal than the war with PLANT.

When I heard Moon's strange words, I had a premonition that I might be involved in the political struggle of the United Earth Army today, and the thought of it revitalized my already relieved heart. Political struggle is more terrible than the open and secret struggle on the battlefield, if you die on the battlefield, you can still leave a glorious moment, and you can also get a glorious title after death, but the darkness hidden behind the light of political struggle is like a whirlpool in the depths of the sea, often unconsciously swallowing people up to the bone. I definitely remember the power of those behind the scenes, and I think that so many powerful enemy forces in Junius 7 failed to do anything to me, but after returning to PLANT, a small trick by old Bronsis played me around, and in the end, if it weren't for the hints of Speaker Liger and Chairman Patrick Sarah, I might not even be able to save my life.

With a slight vibration, the Archangel slowly sailed into the fortress of Arutames.

"It's beautiful, is this Arutames? It's like a gem. Kira reveled in admiration.

"You know, there is often a terror hidden under the beautiful appearance." I muttered to myself as I looked at the spherical fortress that radiated dazzling brilliance.

As the Archangel sailed into the fortress of Arutames, relaxed smiles began to appear on the faces of everyone in the restaurant, and the dozens of hours of continuous escape had already terrified the hearts of these usually pampered people, and now they arrived at a safe place as if they were waking up from a nightmare.

The door opened, but instead of friendly smiling faces, heavily armed soldiers, their guns pointed at the unsuspecting people. One of the leading officers said in a condescending tone: "Listen, all of you, go back to your seats, and if anyone makes a rash move, you will be killed on the spot." ”

The crowd who couldn't react fell silent for a moment, and then fried like a boiling oil pan. A few impulsive people start yelling on the spot.

"What the hell are you doing, we are all legal citizens of the United Earth, and you have no right to restrict our freedom."

"It's like, we finally escaped here, is this how the United Earth Government treats us?"

"I'm a government official in the United Emirate of Orb, and you're doing this to cause a diplomatic dispute."

……………………

"Shut up." The officer pulled out the pistol on his waist and fired a shot into the air, which immediately frightened the excited people: "Listen now, we are just carrying out the orders of our superiors, and if anyone is dissatisfied, they can complain to the government after they go back." But for now, it's up to me, if you have someone who is not afraid of death, you can try it. ”

Under the strong threat of the officer, the originally noisy restaurant gradually quieted down, but the faces of everyone were once again filled with nervousness and fear. It's ironic to experience heaven and hell in just a few minutes.

I grabbed Kira and hid in the crowd, watching the situation unfold. A few minutes later, another group of soldiers brought in all the men on the bridge, except for Lieutenants Marpy and Bucky Lulu, followed by the personnel of the rearmament squad. Uncle Cojero didn't know what to do and was escorted in by a soldier with a gun pointed at his head. When all but three of the officers on board were in the dining room, Arutamis's army closed the gate from the outside, leaving a house full of panicked people.

Uncle Cojero, who had escaped the hostage, kicked on the door and shouted loudly: "Bastard, you bunnies were still nursing in your mother's arms when I got the gun, these guys who don't respect your predecessors." ”

"Isn't this the territory of the Earth Army, why are we locked up?" Sey asked several of the former Earth Force members.

"It's not because of the identification of the signal." Shooting commander Romel Parr Juncao spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Is it really that big of a problem?" Dole asked worriedly.

"Cut, who will take their word for it." Uncle Cojero said disdainfully: "Our identity certificates are complete, as long as we check the lunar headquarters, we can confirm it, I think it is clear that there is another purpose." ”

"That's how it should be." Sai also nodded in agreement.

Millie quietly pulled me and asked in a low voice, "Rayser, you've always been the best at what you do, what do you think is going on?" ”

"The drunkard doesn't mean to drink." I gave a very personal answer.

Millie's eyes were full of question marks.

C.E.711/27

PM2:00

"Damn, we've been locked up for two hours, and they should at least send someone to inform them of their decision." Dalida Juncao desperately rubbed his hair that was always messy and let out hysterical complaints.

Just then, the door suddenly opened, and a major general of the Earth Army walked in with a lieutenant colonel and several soldiers.

"I guess they're here to let us out." Someone in the crowd whispered speculation.

The rear admiral said coldly: "Where are the pilots and technicians of the MS on this battleship?" "The sound is as bad as rusty iron scraping against the bottom of a pot. I couldn't help but want to see what a person with such a "personal" voice would look like, so I quietly poked my head out of the crowd and took a look. It didn't disappoint. I saw that this benevolent brother had a pair of dead fish eyes the size of a light bulb, his face was as pale as a dead man, and he was bald with no grass, he was simply an octopus running out of the sea.

"Brother Octopus" waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately pointed their guns at the crowd, and the colonel, whose hair looked like outstretched wings, shouted: "Please don't try to hide it, I know that the pilot is among you, don't force us to take strong measures." ”

Kira was shocked when she heard this, and tried to stand up but I held her down.

"Don't go out, kid." Uncle Cojero whispered behind us, "Their purpose is you, as long as you don't go out, they can't do anything to us." ”

After waiting for a while and finding that no one answered, the "octopus" was obviously very angry, and glanced at the colonel of the chicken butt, and the "chicken butt" came forward and grabbed the commander of the battleship, Arnold Cao, by the collar and asked, "Say, who are the pilots and technicians?" ”

"Why do you ask me?" Captain Arnold said in a sarcastic tone: "Is it the captain who refuses to say it? Or can't you ask? ”

"Damn, I'll let you say it." Chicken ass grinned.
