Germany, 2008

A young girl sitting on a bench with a doll in her arms, a black and white skirt and a golden double ponytail, humming an unknown song,

And at this time, two figures came in the distance, a woman with very beautiful blond hair, and she was followed by a young man, a black-haired young man with a calm smile on his face, seeing the two appearing, the little girl immediately ran over and pounced on the woman: "Mom, you are finally back"

Then she looked at the man beside her mother, and said with a sweet smile on her face: "Brother Lei Zhe, are you tired from work today?" ”

"Oops, as long as I see Asuka's smile, no matter how tired I am, I will become energetic" Lei Zhe raised his hand and touched Asuka's head, and said with a smile

Four years ago, he officially entered Seele as a special position, although he was initially looked at and rejected by his colleagues, but he was quickly recognized for his personal ability, and several problems that had been plaguing the institute were solved by him, Plan E and Adam Plan were on the right track, so far there are two EVAs in Japan, namely the zero machine that copies Lilith, and the first machine that uses Adam's doppelganger to add restraint locks, wear armor, and implant in the cockpit

During this time, NERV was officially established, and Ikari Gendo became the supreme commander of NERV, and Lei Zhe's research institute was later merged into NERV, but his authority was still retained, and in Seele's archives, his status was even one level higher than Ikari Gendo, because at this time, Ikari Gendo had not officially entered Seele's upper echelons

When the Japanese research no longer needs Lei Zhe, he took the initiative to apply to come to the NERV branch in Germany to help carry out the research of the second machine here, during this period he lived in Zeppelin's home as a correspondent, of course, his identity was not known to the other party, and Lei Zhe's temperament accumulated over the years is easy to be affirmed by the Zeppelin family and the German branch of NERV, the Germans have always been strict and hardworking, so when Lei Zhe first arrived here, the other party did not reject him, On the contrary, it was also a huge and grand welcome party for him, and in the following period, Lei Zhe helped the researchers here to conduct research in his own way to the point where it was almost completed, and the second machine was much faster than expected, and even began to prepare for actual combat

It's just that there are no drivers yet, and the selected drivers can't start the second machine, even if the synchronization rate is less than 5%

Speaking of drivers, Zeppelin did participate in the experiment later, at that time, in order to improve the synchronization rate, she even used Ikari Yui's research, the synchronization rate did increase but she couldn't stick to it, when the synchronization rate reached 250%, the experiment was forced to stop, Zeppelin did not assimilate with the second machine, it should be said that the second machine does not have this ability at all, it is just a copy of Lilith, and there is no ability to copy to the other party

In the original work, although Zeppelin was rescued, but the spirit became abnormal, she took Asuka's doll as her own daughter, and treated the real daughter as a stranger, and later committed suicide, this is her original fate, but because of the appearance of Lei Zhe, her fate changed, the necklace protected Zeppelin's brain in the test, and after being rescued, she only woke up in a coma for three hours, and she didn't have any mental problems, and she also understood that Ikari Yui's research had been successful, but it would be very dangerous to use it casually, So she didn't make it public

"Brother Lei Zhe should be cooking tonight, and Asuka wants to eat Chinese food..."

"Well, no problem, I'll give you whatever you want to eat, Asuka will do whatever you want, as long as you like"

……

At night, Lei Zhe cleaned up the tableware in the kitchen, although many years have passed, but he still maintains a special habit, after cooking the meal by himself, the tableware will inevitably clean up by himself, do a good start, do a good process, do a good result, only in this way can he feel that everything is complete, of course, this is only in terms of cooking, after all, he has been taking care of his adoptive father at that time, should he let the other party cook and wash the dishes? …,

At that time, Lei Zhe felt that he could repay the kindness of those years of nurturing with hard work and taking care of each other's lives, and time sometimes changes many, many things, the world, thoughts, civilizations, and creatures

But there are some things that even time can't erase, and that is what I remember, that is, what I don't want to give up and forget

Putting the cleaned dishes on the dish rack, Lei Zhe wiped his hands and turned around, and found Zeppelin standing at the door of the kitchen looking at him, Lei Zhe smiled and said, "What are you looking at?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel a little strange about you all this time" Zeppelin shook his head, and then continued: "Although I can't say what is strange, I always feel this way, and your presence always makes me sense that something is in it."

"Huh? I was just ordered to come here to help my colleagues in the German branch solve the problem, and it was very clear on my resume, wasn't it? Lei Zhe shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, he knew that Zeppelin had begun to doubt his identity, after all, the other party's power was given by himself, and there was some connection between the two sides, of course, this was done by Lei Zhe on purpose

"No, no, no, it's different, what should I say, to put it bluntly, are you the 'person' that Dr. Katsuragi said?" Zeppelin finally asked, she felt that hesitation was fruitless, if the other party really had a different identity as she guessed, he would definitely understand what he meant, if he wasn't...

"Actually, I've been wondering, how long will it take for you to ask this, how long will it take to find out my identity, I've been living here for a year, and your reaction is really a little sluggish" Lei Zhe suddenly laughed, and continued, and his words made Zeppelin tremble, because she already knew what the other party meant, to be honest, she never thought that Lei Zhe was really that person, the person she had heard from Dr. Katsuragi many times, but had never met

"In fact, we have always had a special relationship between us, you are my chosen apostle, of course you will be confused when you see me, of course this relationship is not obvious, you can only find out for yourself, but it is not too late, at least not after I left you to figure it out, I have always known the movements of your mother and daughter over the years, Ulren" said Leizhe Here, a young man appeared in front of him, and then gave him a salute

"My lord, what do you command?"

"From today onwards, you can teach Zeppelin and Asuka to use their powers, and tomorrow I will let Moyao's people assist you, and you can't leave magic and martial arts behind."

"My lord, shall we do this well? You also know, we are all a bunch of barbarians who only know how to fight and kill, teaching people this kind of thing..."Uren was a little hesitant, if he wanted to teach two women how to kill, it was really no problem, but if he taught something else, he was a little unconfident

"Forget it, I'm still here, I'm really born to teach" Lei Zhe shook his head and smiled helplessly

"Hehe, aren't we just what you trained, so you can do it"

"Fuck off, you actually look at Lao Tzu, fuck off, don't let me see you" In Lei Zhe's unhappiness, Ulun ran away with a smile

Looking at Zeppelin, Lei Zhe was a little helpless: "I'm sorry, my subordinates are this kind of fucked character, and I don't know who they learned from, let's go meet the others tonight, but before that, you put this on" Lei Zhe took out a black robe and threw it to Zeppelin, this long-distance running is very fat, I can't tell if it's a man or a woman after wearing it, Phnom Penh, there is that strange cross on my chest, and then a door appeared in front of Lei Zhe, he continued: "This is also the first party, but don't say too much, Your respective identities can't be revealed casually."

……

In the center of the huge round table is a planet hanging in the air, this is the earth, there are nine people standing around the round table, including Lei Zhe, except for Lei Zhe, the remaining eight people are wearing black robes, he looked at a few people and coughed lightly, and then said: "Welcome to the members of the 'Celestial Entertainment Interactive Association' to the first gathering, I am the president Lei Zhe"...,

"Tsk..."

As soon as Lei Zhe's words were finished, a few people whispered, as if they were very unhappy with his words, and Lei Zhe smiled awkwardly: "Okay, okay, this is the end of the joke, although there are only eight people participating this time, but in fact, all the people have already appeared, but the situation of the other four people is more special, this time I won't take them to play, this time there is no other purpose, just let everyone get together, exchange feelings or something to leave for next time, but I think you actually know each other, even if you really have something to say, Wait until no one comes out in private to contact the relationship."

"You all know my identity, I won't talk nonsense anymore, you are all people I elected, in fact, my criteria for selecting people are very simple, the people who have a great impact on the future are in the list I choose, what each of you is doing now is affecting the future, it can be said that the future world is rotating because of you, and I, just idle and bored, want to change something, let the future go to what I expect, of course, as for the result, I will not change, what is the future of mankind, I don't care, you want to save, Just try on your own, even if you ask me, I won't help."

"Okay, let's talk about the next thing, in fact, I know that you don't have much interest in what the future of humanity is, you all have your own desires, and the reason why you choose to follow me is that I can achieve these things, don't you? So don't talk about the relationship between God and the apostles, we're just making a deal about our needs, and that's it" (To be continued)
