Chapter 11: Allies
Shinji Ikari listened to the song and hummed softly, he was in a really good mood.
Recently, in addition to the relationship with Asuka has begun to ease, and there seem to be signs of talking with Ling Boli, which makes him very happy, not only that, but also the uncle named Roger, although it is the kind that he is afraid to deal with and difficult to deal with, but the situation is much better than he expected, I don't know why, he feels very comfortable with Uncle Roger, many things that can't be said to Miss Misato, or Asuka and them, can be said to Uncle Roger, I feel that he ...... As if he were his bosom friend, although ...... often poured him wine, which made Shinji Ikari very dissatisfied......
But......
Shinji Ikari squeezed his fists, he could actually feel the extraordinaryness of the wine, since he drank the wine, it didn't take long for him to feel that he had changed too much, first of all, the quality of his sleep for a long time was actually not very good, but since drinking that wine, he now sleeps peacefully until dawn every day, and he is in good spirits after waking up.
Then physically, he felt that he seemed to be starting to grow taller, and he was full of strength, which is really not an exaggeration, he had tried to lift some heavy objects, it used to be very laborious, but now he can lift it more easily, and at the same time his recovery power has become very terrifying, for example, if he is cut by a knife, as long as it is not that kind of big gap, then as long as he looks with his eyes, at most ten seconds, this gap will disappear, if it is not for the blood, as if he is not injured at all.
All of these let him know that the wine is extraordinary, he just doesn't like to communicate with the outside world, he just likes to close himself in his own world, rather than understand these after being hurt by the outside world, it is better to reject the world before being hurt, but this does not mean that he is stupid, even if he is just an ordinary person, he also understands the preciousness of this wine, and then thinks about Roger every time he sees him, he will pour him a big sip of wine, he knows Roger's kindness to him, and it also makes him very moved.
Just as he was thinking that tomorrow was Saturday, whether he should go to Roger's and listen to his wonderful stories, and then introduce some of his friends to him, suddenly there was a knock on the door of his room, and Misato poked his head out of it.
"Ah, Miss Misato, dinner is ready, but neither you nor Asuka have returned, so I'll eat first." Shinji Ikari quickly stood up and said
Misato smiled, turned her head slightly and said, "Asuka's PA No. 2 machine still needs to be further configured, so he is estimated to sleep in the base today, so he doesn't have to wait for her." ”
Shinji Ikari nodded, not very concerned, just when he thought that the conversation was over, who knew that Misato suddenly said again: "I heard...... Have you recently met a new friend? What kind of friends are they? Can you tell me about that? ”
Shinji Ikari suddenly showed a surprised expression, and Misato was also a little embarrassed, but she was thick-skinned, so she said casually: "You are a minor after all, and your father asked you to live with me...... So what kind of friends you've made, I guess I have the right to know, right? ”
Shinji Ikari nodded a little expressionlessly, but he really wanted to share the friends he had just met with people he was familiar with, and he talked about Roger at the moment, of course, he also kept an eye on it, and didn't directly say the origin of Roger and the others and the wine, just talked about the two of them knowing each other, and helping Roger and others to be their guides.
Misato listened carefully to Shinji Ikari's words, and at the same time, the eavesdropping device on her body also transmitted these words to the inside of the base, and there were at least ten people there analyzing Shinji Ikari's words, and from time to time telling Misato the conclusions of the analysis, Misato had a small headset in her ear.
"So to speak...... They're not Japanese anymore? Misato asked curiously.
Shinji Ikari nodded and said, "Yes, I heard from them, they are from this part of Onishi Prefecture, but I didn't find it, maybe it's an island in the Atlantic?" ”
"Onishi?"
Misato muttered, and soon, there was an explanation, or legend, about Onishi from the headset.
It is said that there used to be a big 6 in the Atlantic Ocean, and this big 6 was bred by pre-ancient humans, and these humans created a splendid culture, some of which were even modern technology, but with the arrival of an unknown monstrous flood, this big 6 sank in the Atlantic, and this flood is considered to be the great flood in the Bible, God destroyed the world, and Noah built the ark, and it can also be considered that the Great Western State was destroyed under the will of God.
"God...... Extinction...... Apostles, angels ......" Misato said so in her heart, her mood was a little heavier, although she had been mentally prepared before, but after hearing this, it was more likely that Roger was an apostle, although I don't know why there were eight people, it is unlikely that eight apostles appeared together, I think there is another hidden secret.
But now was not the time to delve into this, so she asked Shinji Ikari again, "And what is his personality?" Uh, I'm asking, how do you get along with him? ”
Shinji Iki thought for a while and said, "Uncle Roger is very nice, always cheerful, always likes to laugh, and it seems that nothing can ⊥ him trouble, I ...... him They don't get along very well, and Miss Misato knows that I'm not very good at dealing with people like Uncle Roger, and he likes to pour me wine, and though I've said several times that I'm underage, ......"
"What? He poured you wine? ”
When Misato heard this, she immediately exclaimed, and then she immediately said, "That's not okay, you wait for me to see him immediately, and I will ask him why he did this."
Shinji Ikari was suddenly a little stunned, and he hurriedly said: "Actually, that wine is not difficult to drink, and every time Uncle Roger only lets me take a small sip, nothing ......"
Before Shinji Ikari finished speaking, Misato had already said menacingly: "I am your guardian, and you are still a minor, so I have enough power to talk to him, or does Shinji-kun want to lose this friend I met with such a hard time?" I'm not going to show mercy, and if I think he's a disservice to your growth, I'll never see him again. ”
Shinji Ikari opened his mouth to refute something, but in the end he didn't dare to continue to refute, so he could only shrug his head, resigned himself to his fate, got into Misato's car, and rushed towards the city with her.
At the same time, on the other side, Roger clasped his nose while watching the TV and said, "I said Ah Xing, is it really okay to do this?" While it's true that I want to use my abilities unscrupulously to see what this world is about to do, isn't it too obvious to do so? The watchmen had seen it all the way, and there were satellites in the sky, so I went straight back to this new Tokyo from the center of the Pacific Ocean, and although I thought it was very cool, I always felt that it seemed too frightening, right? ”
Ah Xing was on the table next to him, scribbling on a map, after hearing this, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he said angrily for a long time: "Come on, you are cheap and good, even if I don't let you use the ability of ordinary people, you probably won't be able to help it, right?" Don't say as if you've given something to greatness, it's just playing right into your arms, isn't it? ”
Roger smiled and didn't speak, while Ah Xing stopped scribbling and looked at the rest of the people who didn't understand the same, he sighed and looked at Angela, the mental power controller in the team. Clean. He Man nodded, and said directly through the chain of hearts: "Actually, the reason why I lifted the ban on Roger not to use ordinary people's abilities is just in the layout, judging from the information we have collected now, it is the seventh apostle has already attacked, and the eighth apostle has not yet arrived, judging from the plot, this point in time happens to be when Ikari Gendo goes to the moon, and the person who can call the shots in the R headquarters is Misato Katsuragi, and when Roger met Shinji Ikari first, and did not massacre, Or on the premise of immediately attacking into R, and then showing the abilities that humans should have, and at the same time using the light of the mind, this situation is prone to a possible result......"
"What?"
The rest of the people asked in unison, and Ah Xing didn't hesitate, so he replied: "It's very simple, Misato Katsuragi, who has not read the Dead Sea Scroll and has no connection with uep1, she doesn't know how many apostles there are, and the form and combat ability of each apostle, so in other words, she doesn't know whether the eighth apostle is in human form or not, and at this time, the key point is the loss of contact with Ikari Gentang, which leads to the great possibility that Misato Katsuragi will define Roger as the eighth apostle, you know, In addition to the apostles, this world is actually a pure and standard demonless plane, this is a world where ordinary people are ordinary people, without any special circumstances, and like Roger, who uses special abilities, and this ability is very powerful, the only one, or in the eyes of the people in this world, the only possibility is the apostle, unless someone who knows the inside story can deny it, otherwise...... I think R has now defined you as the Eighth Apostle, Roger
"What?"
Roger still had an indifferent expression, while the rest of the people were shocked, and they all ran to the various windows to look out, they all showed frightened expressions, and they were all afraid that there would be a large-scale high-powered bomb directly in the next second, or that PA would suddenly attack.
And Ah Xing still said with a calm expression: "Don't worry so much, I said before, the premise is already there, the reason why Roger is defined as the eighth apostle is because of Katsuragi Misato, and the reason why she is so defined is just based on the common sense of this world, and the inability to contact Ikari Gentang, at the same time, there is another premise I just mentioned, that is, before Roger revealed that he might be the eighth apostle, he had already known Shinji Ikari first, and also became friends with him, at the same time, No matter what it is, it is similar to a human being, and it is a law-abiding human being, such as eating and giving money, such as not killing innocents indiscriminately, which means that Roger can communicate, can dialogue, and can understand each other, not like the real apostles who only bring destruction, and the biggest difference between Misato Katsuragi and the rest is because it is very important, I repeat again, Misato Katsuragi is different from the rest of the people, the most critical reason is that she saw the second impact with her own eyes, and at the same time, because of her father, And then she knew that the father she had always hated and wanted to get close to actually loved her, which also led to her having complex feelings about the apostle, very complicated, neither love nor hate, so ......"
"If it were someone else who was in charge of R, I wouldn't have made such a layout, whether or not Roger was defined as an apostle, but Misato Katsuragi was different, I repeated it for the third time, if it was her, then she would have appeared as an apostle who could communicate, then her first reaction was definitely not to call in PA to immediately attack and destroy, her first reaction was definitely ......"
At this time, during the mental power scan, a car came from under the building, and a man and a woman got out of the car, the man was Shinji Ikati, and the woman was Misato Katsuragi.
Ah Xing suddenly smiled, his expression was confident and wise, and he continued, "She will definitely come to communicate with Roger......"
"Definitely"
