"It's so late, where did Carl go?"

In the hotel, the Lufthansa and his party were waiting in the hall for Carl.

"Sorry everyone, I'm coming back late~" Finally, Carl returned to the hotel.

"Dude, why are you only back now?!" Tessa got up from her chair when she saw Carl finally return.

"I'm sorry to worry you, but I have one more thing I want to discuss. ”

So, Karl told everyone about his desire to stay here to defend Lando Barca.

"I don't disagree, but I don't approve either, this is not our war after all. There is no need for us to fight with the armies of the Empire for these reasons. After listening to Carl's words, Tessa gave this answer.

"I also think Tessa's words make sense, it's not our war. Kate agrees with Tessa.

"Mmmm~Hmm~ Tessa is right!" Karasti also firmly supports Tessa, and it seems that she is still haunted by the chocolate bar at noon.

"Brother......" Rei also looked at Carl worriedly, she was most worried about what accidents Karl would have in the battle.

Seeing that everyone was so resolutely opposed, I was embarrassed to say anything more.

"After all, there's no reason for anyone to let themselves die for someone who has nothing to do with it?" Karl actually understood the girls' thoughts very well, because he had thought so a few hours ago.

'You can't put your companion in danger for your own sake. This is the principle that Karl has always adhered to.

"So what are we going to do next? For now, we don't have enough fuel to reach the Great Lake, and if we can't use the rails, we'll run out of fuel halfway through. After discussing Karl, Tessa returned to the question of how to get back to the Tierdania.

'yes, what can I do about that?' Karl was also worried about the problem.

"Let's contact Miss Hekmadia first, and maybe, she will have something to do. Kate suggested

"yes!, how did I forget that?!"

――――――――――――――

"Hey, this is the Lufthansa, Tierdania, can you hear me? Hey, can you hear me?"

All of the Lufthansa's crew, except for Lilia, a temporary member who continued to disappear, gathered inside the Lufthansa, waiting for the Tierdania's radio response.

"Hey~ This is Tierdania~ Hansa guys, what's the matter?" came Miss Heikmadya's listless movement over the loudspeaker.

"Good evening, Miss Heikmaditya, have you slept?"

"Well, after taking care of some things, I just went to sleep. Did you encounter any difficulties?" said Hekmaditya, whose voice was drowsy.

"Yes, we had some trouble, we couldn't get the train to Vassar as planned, so we ran out of fuel and couldn't run to the big lake. ”

"Well, that's right, that's a problem. Hekmaditya over there thought for a while and said

"Well, we also have a transport truck here, which your team put in the warehouse, remember?"

"Of course I do. Doyle is a strong man who can drag a rat around...... By the way, wouldn't it be nice to let Doyle come over!"

Unlike all vehicles built with mid-20th century technology, the Doyle is a modern military truck built entirely using the most modern federal technology, with a maximum load of 250 tons. It has a maximum range of 600 km on a full load and is so reliable that it is perfectly capable of carrying Lufthansa back to the ship. Then the problem is completely solved!

"But what if you encounter danger along the way? Doyle doesn't have a self-defense system. "That's Leigh's concern

"This is easy to do, wouldn't it be nice to let Doyle carry another chariot~ It can not only defend itself, but also support us at a critical time~" Tessa, who felt that the problem had been solved, said lightly.

"I'm sorry, but there are only two vehicles that can be driven on the Tierdania, and there is not a single vehicle suitable for individual combat support. However, Heikmadiya brought bad news.

"Ahh

"Haha, I don't know who blew them up one by one during the game, right, Captain Gilman?~" Hearing Karl's complaint, Hekmadia vaguely damaged Karl

"Well, Miss Heikmaditya, you can tell me what else the chariot can move. ”

"Okay, a **-type tank has been repaired, and a Grant is changing tracks, it will be repaired tomorrow, you can choose~" Heikmadia gave two very chicken options.

“............ Forget it. "That's what everyone here thinks.

It's not enough to see the joke by letting the ** chariot and the Grant come.

"However, you don't have to worry too much, there is a reinforcement that will be there for you right away, and when you meet, let her come back to escort Doyle first, and then go and pick you up. "This is Heikmaditya's suggestion,

"What reinforcements?" Tessa seemed to be able to guess who it was

"Needless to say, of course it's the Kalinin of the Red October Academy!"

..................

Climbing out of the chariot, Karl and his party looked very relaxed, and after discussing for so long, they finally thought of a way to return to the ship, and now they only need to wait for the Kalinin to arrive, and then go together.

After careful consideration of the feasibility of the plan, everyone felt that this option was the most reliable.

"If we go like this, we expect to run out of fuel 20~30 kilometers from the Great Lake, and then we can go back to the ship as long as the Kalinin finishes these thirty kilometers to protect Doyle, and then come back to pick us up~" Tessa said happily

"If it was when Katyusha was captain before, I wouldn't dare do this, but now it's captain Katerina...... Haha~ I really miss her a little bit~" Thinking of the gentle Katerina, Karl couldn't help but smile happily.

'Brother is thinking about something bad again, isn't it?' Why do boys see that all good-looking women have this problem? ’

With her brother smiling meaninglessly, Tessa instinctively raised her alertness.

"But didn't Miss Heikmadia say that there was something wrong with the Kalinin's radio station, and in case anything unexpected ......," Kate expressed her concern

"Don't worry. If it's Katyusha, who was born in Yuracia, then it's hard to say, but if it's Katerina, who was born in the Rhineland, she will definitely keep her promise! If you say that the day after tomorrow, you will definitely arrive the day after tomorrow!" Karasti also interjected, and she seemed to have a good impression of Katerina, who was also white-haired.

Soon, the girls were happily returning to their rooms, but Carl was still sitting in the hall of the hotel, quietly looking at the clock hanging on the wall, and thinking about some questions with a serious gaze.

I hope nothing happens in the next two days...... But I may not be able to wait for the day after tomorrow. ’
