It's night.

A banquet was held to entertain the United Earth and the PLANT Mission in one of Orb's villas.

On this night, almost all the upper class and power figures of Orb were invited to participate in this banquet. While trying to get in touch with the Earth Union and the PLANT Mission, it is also to make a good impression of submissiveness in front of Cagalli Yura Ashar, who coldly shot her fiancé and the head of the Syran family at the recent wedding.

I have to say, not to mention people from other countries, even those who know the inside story before the moment Cagalli shoots, they will only think that this girl with a stump will at most leave Orb crying under the snatching of the Freedom Gundam.

however

The results were unexpected.

The girl who was supposed to leave in tears put on a cold face and killed the father and son who were in the air without hesitation.

This sudden change shocked countless Orb nationals and made them fearful.

Because, they know that Cagalli Yura Assha is no longer a normal person. Under the influence of that crippled body, under the care of the father and son, but in fact, under the operation of the overhead, this physically and mentally disabled girl may also make unexpected moves.

For this reason, it is not necessary to save your life or protect your family.

Tonight, many of Orb's upper echelons have secretly reached a basic understanding. That is, try to avoid clashes with Cagalli Yura Asgha as much as possible. If something unfortunate happens, try to resolve the conflict as much as possible.

The Asgha family has given birth to another lion. Although the lion was a wrecked body, its claws were still sharp.

While they were drinking and chatting, countless eyes faintly looked through the glass of the goblet at the two big men who were surrounded by many celebrities in the center.

"General Ho. I didn't expect that after parting a few years ago, we would see each other again. And our current situation is so similar. ”

Contrary to Ho's inexplicable guess, Cagalli, who was in a wheelchair, stretched out her right hand to herself who was also in a wheelchair with a warm smile.

"Huh. Let the representative laugh. I didn't expect that a little girl a few years ago would become so mature. He inexplicably stretched out his right hand and shook it with Cagalli, then looked at Cagalli's eyes and said, "It seems." The former representative Izumishita is knowledgeable, and he should be very pleased. ”

Maybe it was because He Mo's golden eyes were too dazzling, or maybe Cagalli was inexplicably reminded of the memory of her late father, Cagalli forced a smile and talked to He Mogul, and then with the help of her attendants, she temporarily left the dance scene on the grounds that she needed to take medicine.

With Cagalli's departure, He Inexplicable was replaced by a group of celebrities who were quite curious about the name of "savior" on He Mo's head, but due to the sudden coldness of the aura exuded by He Inexplicable, these celebrities did not dare to enter He Inexplicable's three-meter range.

But even so, these celebrities still have no intention of leaving, and continue to try to have a chance to talk to He inexplicably.

Naturally, this situation fell into the eyes of other onlookers.

"Cut! Hypocrisy! In the corner where the PLANT mission was located, a teenager had a glint of unwillingness and contempt in his eyes, shamelessly looking at He Moming, who was surrounded by many celebrities.

"What are you talking about? True. When the boy continued to slander He inexplicably, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder by someone, which made the boy startled.

"What are you doing? True. We've been invited to the party, but it's still a mission. Aslan, who was also wearing a ZAFT red military uniform and wearing FAITH's exclusive medal at the neckline, scolded the young man in front of him slightly. During this time of getting along, Aslan already knew that this guy was a restless explosive that could be ignited at any time compared to the more peaceful Ray.

This is evident from the fact that when he returned from the memorial cemetery not long ago, Shin Asuka was covered in sand. Although Aslan didn't ask about what happened afterwards, after he asked Ray about Shin Asuka, he learned that Shin Asuka was suddenly in a daze with a handkerchief.

Later, when Aslan saw the real Asuka staring at the General He at the banquet, he secretly guessed something.

"Have you ever crossed paths with General He?" Aslan glanced back at Ray, who was standing beside the ambassador and meticulously carrying out his escort duties, and asked Shin Asuka.

"No, nothing."

Although Asuka casually gave Aslan a perfunctory look, in the next second, Asuka Shin's eyes betrayed him.

Aslan, who noticed that something was wrong, quickly followed the gaze of Shin Asuka.

A group of three, all dressed in the women's lieutenant uniforms of the United Earth Army, walked straight through the crowd from the other side of the banquet, ignoring the invitations of the men around them, and stood on the left and right sides of He Inexplicably.

In front of everyone, after bowing his head and talking to He inexplicably for a few words, he divided the two of them to disperse the crowd without any reason, and the last person gently pushed He Inexplicable wheelchair and left the banquet. Looks like I'm going to the garden at the back.

"Someone you know?" Aslan asked, looking back at Asuka who was looking straight at him.

Shin Asuka gritted his teeth, shook his head, and said, "No, I don't know. Then, as if afraid of Aslan's questioning, Asuka left Aslan's side and returned to Ray's side, continuing his escort mission.

"It's nice to be young!" Looking at the real Asuka who fled in the wilderness, Aslan, who thought he had guessed the truth, couldn't help but sigh.

At that moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and a familiar voice sounded slowly.

"Do you have a drink with me? This gentleman. ”

Aslan was stunned for a moment, and then turned around and looked at the visitor. When he saw the faces of the people who came, Aslan's expression was sometimes hideous, sometimes crazy, sometimes hateful, but in the end they all calmed down.

"I don't drink anymore." Aslan glanced at the wine glass handed over by the visitor, and said flatly.

"Really? I guess too. The visitor smiled, gently raised the wine glass in his hand and said, "It's just juice." ”

Aslan stared at the glass of juice in the hand of the visitor for a while, then tilted his head, pointed to the balcony and said, "Change places!" It's a bit noisy here. ”

"Of course."

It's not the same as a crowded banquet.

At night, the garden is always enveloped by a sense of tranquility.

Tranquil courtyard,

Blooming flowers,

Rushed into the air, and turned into bursts of beautiful water with a little starlight, and re-scattered in the pool of water,

All this made the four people who came out of the banquet feel a burst of amazement.

"It's so beautiful here!" As soon as Stella, who was leading the way with Mayo, saw the beautiful pool, she rushed over with a brisk stride in a shout. Behind him, so did Mayu, who saw the rise.

"You two, be careful!" The steady Avril did not abandon the task of pushing He Inexplicable wheelchair, but just looked at the excited two and reminded them.

"Let them go!" Compared to Avril, Ho seems to be more indulgent to Stella and Mayo. "I heard from Malu. I didn't expect you to suffer so much in order to become a pilot in the past few years. Thank you very much. ”

Avril shook her head, let go of the handle of the wheelchair, stepped forward, stood on He Mo's right hand, put her hands on He Mo's right hand, looked at He Mo's eyes, and said frankly and sincerely: "No, this is what the four of us decided together." If it weren't for the fact that my brother Ofar was really unsuitable to be a pilot, the young phoenix team would be four people by now. ”

Although He was a little moved by the sincerity shown by Avril, he was more puzzled. Why do they, after suffering from war, become part of the war?

"Why?" He asked inexplicably slowly.

Avril smiled, raised her hand and pointed to He Inexplicably's golden pupils that were feared by most people and said, "I want to help you, big brother!" ”

The words are simple, but the heart is strong. It was so strong that even if he didn't deliberately feel Avril's mental fluctuations, he could feel it clearly.

"This girl. Don't you know that NTs are attracted to each other? He inexplicably sighed both amusement and helplessness.

Suddenly, Ho's face changed inexplicably, he stopped what he was about to say, and looked at Avril quickly. Avril's face was also full of solemnity, but she didn't panic, and subconsciously reached out to touch her thigh.

Over there

There was a small dagger hidden.

Nowadays, when they can't bring firearms to the banquet, this dagger that can avoid security may be a safety guarantee for them.

but

He inexplicably stopped Avril from moving.

I saw him shake his head, and after signaling Avril to be calm, he shouted, "Mayo, Stella." We went back. “

"Yes!" At the edge of the pool, Mayu and Stella's responses immediately rang out.

Soon, after Mayu and Stella returned to their side, Ho inexplicably and secretly asked Avril to inform Mayu and Stella that they were ready, then looked to the other side of the garden and said flatly:

"Come out! I didn't expect you to die. ”

In the shadows, an eerie laugh gradually rang out.

"Huh. Worthy of a savior. They were able to spot me. Awesome, amazing. ”

As he spoke, one after another black-clad and heavily armed black shadows rushed out of the shadows of the garden quickly and silently, and quickly surrounded the four of He Mo in a half-moon formation.

"Mayo, Stella. Be careful! Avril pulled the dagger from her thigh, took a defensive stance, and shouted in a low voice.

It's just that three daggers are against the black shadows who are at least fifteen or more, fully armed, and the odds of victory are almost zero.

"Your Excellency the Savior. Please let those three kittens put down their poor little gadgets! They don't do us any harm, though. But our guts are still very small after all. The one who spoke did not leave the shadows, but only pressed the three daughters of Avril to put down their daggers.

"Avril, put down the dagger! It's useless. He inexplicably's expression remained unchanged, and calmly motioned for Avril to put down the dagger.

Although she was reluctant in her heart, the three daughters, who believed in any inexplicability, still threw the dagger at the feet of those black shadows as she said.

"That's right. Those who know the times are Junjie. Your Excellency the Savior. The man hiding in the shadows praised He inexplicably, and then said, "I'm very sorry! Your Excellency the Savior. We didn't want to disturb you tonight. But there are always times when things go unexpected, so please stay here for a while. When we have settled our matter, I will plead with Your Excellency the Savior! ”

Although the man hiding in the shadows said very nicely, He inexplicably didn't like him.

I saw that He Mo's golden eyes slowly cruised around the many black shadows who raised their guns and pointed at him, and looked at the black shadows who were forced by his sharp gaze to subconsciously take two steps back and mocked: "Is it just these soldiers who don't enter the stream? You've let me down so much. Or has the librarian been reduced to only these unpopular roles? His Excellency Unat Emma Syran who has come back from the dead. ”
