Karen hesitated for a moment, and finally after thinking alone for a while, she came to the innermost warehouse.

"Bang!"

She opened the door of the warehouse and saw Lelouch sitting in the shadow of the container.

Because there was no light, and Lelouch had just dived to the bottom of the sea to install a timing device. My hair was a little wet, so I was wiping it with a dry towel on top. So he didn't wear the ZERO mask at the moment, but Karen at the door of the warehouse couldn't see his face clearly.

"Who?"

Lelouch turned his head to look at the door and shouted.

"Right...... Sorry for the faux pas. ”

Karen bowed slightly in panic and apologized. Feeling that she was disturbing Lelouch, she planned to turn around and leave.

"Confused?"

Lelouch in the dark, looking sideways at Karen at the door.

"Huh?"

When Karen heard Lelouch say this, she turned back in surprise.

"I think I'm for justice...... I think that's right, and I've been fighting for it until now. So also went to kill people, however...... It's true...... Can we really change the world with what we do? ”

Standing in the doorway, Karen's eyes flickered, and she turned her back to the moonlight outside and said excitedly to Lelouch.

Because she heard Karen say at school that her father almost died in the Narita incident, but he survived because of luck. As a result, Xia Li now has become particularly hostile to the Black Knights, believing them to be hypocritical justice.

"It can change!"

Lelouch leaned back on the container and replied to Karen in an affirmative tone without hesitation.

"No, it has to change!"

"But ......"

"Will there be sacrifices? There will be people who are not soldiers, but who are implicated and killed! ”

Lu Luxiu, who also heard Xia Li speak in the student union, of course knew what Kalian was hesitating, and he was sincerely grateful to Zhang Yu for what he did. saved Xia Li's father, otherwise he might really be a little afraid to face Xia Li.

But if he had to choose again, he would still do it. It doesn't stop because of innocent people.

“……”

Karene looked at Lelouch in amazement, and she was silent.

She understood that Lelouch also knew that she was worried, hesitating about something.

"But...... That's why we can't afford to stop and move forward. No matter what means are used, even if it is considered a despicable act, it can only continue to win. For this reason, do not hesitate to incarnate Shura! In order not to let the blood that has been shed in vain, more blood needs to be shed..."

“……”

"But I won't force it, Karen! The only time to turn back is now! ”

When Lelouch had finished speaking, he stopped talking, because he had said everything he had to say.

"I will move forward together, I will ...... with you"

Karen looked at Lelouch with a gentle smile and said her decision. At this moment she did not hesitate, because she understood. As long as you follow Lelouch, you will definitely be able to see the future you want.

"Thanks, Karen."

A satisfied smile appeared at the corner of Lelouxiu's mouth.

In a warehouse at a seaside port, Suzaku is wearing a pilot's suit.

"What a pity! Suzaku-kun! ”

Still in that deliberately out-of-tune flirtatious tone, Lloyd slowly walked over to Suzaku and issued the order he had just gotten.

"An order from Cornelia's immediate forces to participate in tonight's battle!"

"Huh?"

"Is it recognized?"

Lloyd smiled wickedly like an old fox and leaned in front of Suzaku.

"Or as bait again!"

"Mr. Lloyd!"

Cecil, who was walking in with a plate of refreshments, heard Lloyd's teasing of Suzaku and smiled softly.

"Do you want me to teach you the proper way to interact with people?"

Although Cecil's voice is very sweet and gentle, Lloyd, who has been with her for so long, will not be deceived by her appearance, and if he doesn't stop talking, he will suffer later.

"Thanks! Forget it! ”

The deterrent power of the most violent daughter of the special commission is really strong, even the director of the special commission, Lloyd, can not ignore it, and he continues to ask a little more seriously.

"About the battle I just mentioned, Suzaku-kun! Do you have any ideas? ”

"I'm a soldier, so I'll obey the orders given to me by my superiors!"

"Yes! Military! ”

Lloyd repeated, turned and beckoned to Suzaku.

"Keep up, General Dalton will personally assign tasks to you, it seems that all the hard work has finally paid off!"

"Yes!"

Suzaku stood with his feet together, solemnly answered, and then followed Lloyd to the back door of the warehouse.

"The Governor is still embarrassed about you as a numberer, but I can use it as a person, even if it is the son of the former prime minister of Japan."

Speaking of this, Dalton looked at Suzaku with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"And judging from the performance of the last few battles, the Governor has also slightly recognized your ability, plus the Vice-Governor's approval, so you will go to the battlefield as a frontal force instead of a substitute force in the future!"

"Thank you for the Governor and Lieutenant Governor's leniency, I will not disappoint the adults!"

Suzaku gave a military salute to Dalton.

"Hmm!"

Seemingly pleased with Suzaku's performance, Dalton went on to recount the battle.

"The main target this time is Katase, as long as this guy is caught, the Japanese Liberation Front will be over. The capture is the responsibility of the Marine Force, and you shoot from land to cover the Marine during the capture of Katase, and annihilate the remnants after the capture! ”

"Is it annihilation?"

"Hmmm! Don't let go of any of your goals and show your loyalty to Bunitania! Warrant Officer Suzaku of the Lord! The opportunity for promotion, go for it! Don't live up to the expectations of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor! ”

Dalton turned around and went to get ready for anything else.

“YES！ My Lord！ ”

Suzaku's voice lost the excitement it had begun and became muffled.

It's time to wave the butcher's knife at your compatriots again, just like Xia Li said!

"It's 'icon trampling' (a wooden or copper plate with images of the Virgin Mary and Jesus that was stepped on with their feet in the Edo period to prove that they were not Catholics, and in this case a method of tempting people's hearts)!"

Lloyd waited for Dalton to walk away, then laughed again. But then he put away his smile and put on a solemn face that was rare.

"What to do? Tempted...... You! But Suzaku, you have to cheer up every step of the way. Because Lancelot hasn't been found yet, he hasn't received a signal from it since that day. However, this is an internal matter of our commission, so there will be no punishment. ”

"But if someone in Lancelot shows up, you must destroy it as soon as possible, so that you can make up for the mistakes of our commission. I believe you, definitely the best part of Lancelot. ”

Suzaku reluctantly gripped the Lancelot Frontier key.

Lelouch ...... Teacher Yu...... And the green-haired girl

What exactly should I do......
