Gundam: The wind blowing through the universe

"So, does Captain Lamias have anything to add about the two adjuster pilots?"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Colonel Hoffman, as the adjutant, took the lead in raising this most sensitive core issue. The Archangel and G are back, so the issue of the subsequent ownership of the pilot who can exert the combat effectiveness of G must be solved here. A conclusion.

"Kira-Yamato and Saji-Klauslaud are students of the Orb Institute of Technology. They were forced to fly mobile suits to participate in the battle due to the situation. Without them, we would not be able to survive the battle with the third one by ourselves. The Eighth Fleet is converging, and I think we should fully consider their opinions and respect their decision."

In this situation, as the captain, Masuo had to express his opinion, and with his teacher opposite him, Masu knew that his opinion would be supported.

"Kira-Yamato aside, but the other GINN pilot seems to have been the one who made the first move in Artemis before? And it seems that he deliberately betrayed friendly forces to vent his anger?"

However, Colonel Hoffman did not want to easily let go of these two strategic talents who were extremely valuable to the United Earth, and continued to question Siegfried's series of criticized actions.

"I think Sha Ci's handling of Artemis's problem was very correct. As for what happened to the advance fleet, after we retrieved GINN's operational records, we have been able to prove that the problem lies with the aircraft itself, not the driver. As long as we give it to me again, a little time."

"So it still doesn't prove that Sha Ci is innocent?"

"Teacher, please trust my professional judgment as a technician!"

Seeing Colonel Hoffman pressing closer, Ma Li had no choice but to ask Halbarton for help. However, he thought that the teacher would stand firmly on his side, but in the end, Halbarton just knocked on the table rhythmically and did not say anything. Reply immediately.

"Second Lieutenant Bucky Lulu, I want to hear your opinion."

After a moment, Halbarton named an unexpected name. There are many factions within the Earth United, and Bucky Lulu's family happens to be the faction that is opposed to Halbarton. She thought she would not get a chance to speak, but she was accidentally named, and even she was stunned. one time.

Good military quality allowed Bucky Lulu to quickly adjust her mentality. After quickly going over what she wanted to say in her mind, this representative of the 'hardliners' in Halpaton's eyes gave his own opinion.

"I personally support Captain Ramias's view. If they intend to officially join the army, then I will welcome them to become comrades. If they insist on withdrawing from fighting, I think I can understand them. After all, war is our professional soldiers' The responsibility should not be shouldered by two young men. The heavy responsibility belongs to us, above!"

Watching Bucky Lulu finish his opinion in surprise, Halbaton really didn't expect that the hard-liner who always gave the army his top priority would actually agree with his disciple's opinion this time.

"What happened, Lieutenant? This is not something you would say."

"Reporting to your Excellency, something happened that made me learn some things about being a human being besides being a soldier."

Looking up again, Halbarton nodded with satisfaction, "This looks like a qualified joint soldier, much better than your father who is full of muscles."

"My father is"

Halbarton waved to interrupt Bucky Lulu's defense, and Colonel Hoffman beside him immediately took out a paper document with only a few thin pages.

"In principle, I agree with your proposal, but regarding that Shaci Crossroads, I have a secret letter from Orb and a report record of a civilian on your ship. Orb's copy was in Heli After the collapse of Opolis, I used certain channels to obtain information from the Heavenly Pillar, please take a look at it before making a decision."

After receiving the document handed over by Hoffman, Ma Liu did not hide it from Mu and Baji Lulu. The three of them browsed it quickly and then exchanged glances with each other.

"As for Sha Ci's identity, we have actually suspected it for a long time. After all, he feels completely different from Kira, who is also a student at Orb University of Technology. But he has saved us more than once, so he should repay this Favor. That’s my answer, teacher!”

One of the documents that Colonel Hoffman took out was Frey's testimony to Siegfried, which recorded in detail the scene when she first encountered this 'demon'. In the testimony, she repeatedly emphasized that the other party was definitely not Orb. students are so simple. The other one is some photos that Halbarton exchanged with Orb in the shortest possible time through private channels. Others are easy to say, but in the secret factory, Siegfried and Hilde are clearly visible. Appearing above, along with the two of them was Cagalli, who had left Kira behind and chased after her alone.

"As for the identity of the boy and girl, the Sahak family did not give a reply, but they confirmed that the third person is the only daughter of the former Orb Prime Minister Uzmi, Kagali Yula Asha .”

"This is Louise who got on the boat with Sha Ci."

"Here's the problem. Sahak has been looking for the whereabouts of the little princess since the satellite crashed. After all, the last sighting was in the factory of Dawn Society, but they couldn't find it even in the list of refugees they were hosting. Found, so the only possibility is that they were taken in by you. In this way, even though the Sahak family cannot recognize the boy and girl, but based on the analysis of the general signs, it is very likely that these two people are the personal belongings of the Orb Lion. Armed force, specifically designed to protect his daughter.”

"But... this young man doesn't behave like a professional soldier at all."

Regarding Halbaton's views, most of the three Malsuo people agreed, but Mu, who had the most contact with Siegfried, expressed his own views.

"Judging from his age, he should be the talent that Uzmi has reserved for his daughter in the future. If he hadn't encountered an unexpected situation, he should have been familiar with the battlefield slowly, but he can drive GINN to fight in a hurry. With such achievements, I should not say that that old guy has really vicious eyes."

"Then us"

"Just wait and see what happens. Uzmi is now in a cooperative relationship with us. When you go to Alaska, these two people will be picked up by Orb. After all, the boy has done a lot, so there is no need to embarrass them, but you What is going on with this ship? The two princesses PLANT and Orb can be taken in by you one after the other. Should I say you are lucky or unlucky?"

Following Halbarton's joking words, no one had any objections to the next arrangement. Bucky Lulu followed the request and went to give Milly and the others a replacement discharge certificate, while Masuo accompanied his teacher to visit his painstaking work. Crystal, X105-Strike.

It was just that Kira, who was making final preparations for the attack in Gnaku, and Siegfried, who was doing nothing on the side, suddenly met Halbarton without any preparation.

Fortunately, Masuo gave them both a 'don't panic' look. Of course Siegfried was much calmer than Kira, but he always felt that the way the 'wise general' looked at him was a little strange.

After checking the status of the attack, Halbarton briefly chatted with Kira about the concepts of war and protection, and then walked to Siegfried's side with "Don't come over" in his eyes.

As a result, Siegfried spent a long time drafting, thinking of a hundred excuses, but in the end he only waited until Halbarton patted him on the shoulder, and then the general who looked more like the uncle next door whispered something about his identity. Extremely inconsistent words.

"The Asha family's little girl is pretty good, come on."

"Huh? Huh??? No"

"Okay, thank you both again for your help. I'll ask you to make your own decision. Before you decide, ask yourself what your beliefs are. Good luck."

Without giving Siegfried time to react, he had no idea why Halbaton knew Cagalli's identity and why he had not revealed it yet. This unassuming big man from the United Earth rejected Masuo's request to continue accompanying him and left Gnaku.

After a while, Millie found Kira with Thor. Speaking of it, because of Fleur, Siegfried rarely came with her when he was there. There were still some unexplained loopholes in the maintenance team's report, so Masuo could not release the specific contents until the investigation was clear. In the end, apart from Marduk and the bridge trio, only Cagalli still believed it. Siegfried was cleared.

However, compared to Se being affected by Frey, Millie did not treat Siegfried differently. At this time, the two discharge certificates she held in her hand were one from Kira and the other from him.

Before Kira could clearly see what was in his hand, Siegfried tore it into two pieces without hesitation, and threw it away into the distance under the looks of Miri's surprise and Kira's confusion.

"Oh, the quality is not high, it's ridiculous."

Clapping his hands, as if he had done something insignificant, Siegfried held up the corners of his mouth with his fingers and smiled hard but brightly at Miri.

"Sha Ci, won't you come with me?" Kira realized at this moment that among all the people present, he was the only one who was seriously holding the discharge papers and was ready to board the shuttle.

"I won't leave. There are some things that I can't let go of. If I can't let go, it will be hard to let go. And didn't Admiral Halbarton say that fighting skills are important, but more important is fighting belief."

"Then you too, Millie."

"We are not leaving either. Fleur said she wanted to stay, so we discussed it and decided to stay together. There is always a place where we can be useful here. Kira, please leave quickly."

Thor said as he pushed Kira to the boarding gate. Although he already knew the result, Siegfried was still a little jealous watching this scene.

"Then Louise." Kira was still hesitating. At this time, he had not yet found the meaning of fighting. From the bottom of his heart, he wished he could take off this military uniform right away, but all the friends around him did so. Kira made an incomprehensible decision, which made Kira begin to wonder if he was wrong.

"Louise won't leave either. She won't leave until I leave."

He made a goodbye gesture to Kira. In fact, Siegfried had never looked for Cagalli at all, because he knew that his search would be in vain. There was no way that stubborn woman could board the shuttle by herself.

"Everyone is on the first line of combat alert, all members are on the first line of combat alert."

The familiar siren sounded through the Archangel again. Millie and the others hurried back to the bridge without even having time to say goodbye. Siegfried was left looking at Kira who was still hesitant. Most of the civilians around him had already boarded. After that, just when he was about to leave Leukira to think clearly about his fighting beliefs, a tugging sensation from the corner of his clothes made him turn his head.

"Brother Sha Ci, this is for you."

"Thank you, little Ai Lu, go find your mother quickly. It will be very troublesome if you get lost here."

"We're going to fight again. Will brother Sha Ci protect us?"

Rubbing the girl's head vigorously, Siegfried sniffed and answered with a heavy nasal voice.

"Will do!"

Stuffing the gift from the girl into his collar, Siegfried said nothing more to Kirado. If the attack failed, he was the only one who could rely on him.

He quickly returned to the cockpit of GINN, turned on the power and connected to the bridge in one go. When he looked up, he saw that Milly had also returned to the CIC position. Not far away, Thor also said hello.

"Shaci, you are not"

"Second Lieutenant, we are all here, we can't just leave. If the attack cannot be launched, I will cover the Eighth Fleet."

"But we are on standby now."

"What Halbarton wants to protect is this battleship and the attack on it. My GINN has no protection value. Besides, if it doesn't work, I will return it. By the way, don't go to Menelaos with the shuttle boat. Come on, it will be too obvious as the flagship when the fight begins."

"Those civilians refuse to stay on the Archangel anymore. If the war situation goes badly for the Admiral, they will give priority to releasing the shuttle."

After quickly exchanging information with Bucky Lulu, GINN had already reached the ejection port. After once again confirming that all the performance of the mobile suit was in perfect condition, Siegfried had no reason to forcefully recall the shuttle.

"OK, Captain Ramias, in my personal capacity, I request support for the Eighth Fleet. I hope"

"You must come back safely."

"Just do your best."

After obtaining the captain's permission, GINN entered the ejection preparation process. As the three LAUNCH lights lit up one after another, Mirialia's voice sounded like that of a qualified CIC.

"The line is clear, GINN, please attack!"

Looking at the hatch that was gradually opening in front of him, Siegfried touched his collar, and then tightened his grip on the joystick.

‘Let me live for myself once, Hilde! ! ! ’

"Siegfried Gilfias, GINN, attack!!"
