Gundam: The wind blowing through the universe

"I think it's better to report it to the Council. His identity is too sensitive. I'm afraid of sending him away like this."

"It has been three days of interrogation, and nothing has been gained except that his physical condition is getting worse. If he is sent to Orb, he may die as a doctor. There is no point in insisting on keeping him in our hands."

In the captain's room, Curatis and Aslan were discussing the issue of Regret's stay. Shiho had been sent back to the mainland immediately. Minerva's military doctor made it clear that he was really powerless to deal with this kind of injury. Therefore, we can only place our hope on PLANT's world-leading medical technology level.

However, the decision to leave Regret triggered a disagreement between Aslan and Curatis. Today is the fourth day after the recapture of the Gibraltar base. For this extremely rare prisoner of phantom pain, he is also the former ZAFT. In red, Aslan used various connections and means, but Regret was like an old-fashioned computer that was offline, without any signals to communicate with the outside world except for normal physiological activities.

In desperation, Aslan decided to send him to Orb, which had experience in treating enhanced people. After all, in terms of ownership rights, Regret belonged to the Orb Defense Force and had no affiliation with ZAFT. Aslan even participated in it back then. After the operation to capture the traitor, Councilor Jiu'er's angry expression is still unforgettable to Aslan.

However, Kuratis thinks that she should wait for news from the Council before making a decision. It’s not that Aslan’s FAITH status is no longer useful. Kuratis just doesn’t want Aslan, who currently holds 80% of the Earth’s military forces, to fight with him. Whatever happened to Durandal far away in PLANT, the life and death of a Phantom Pain was not her main concern.

"I understand what you mean, Captain, but no matter what, he is our compatriot. No matter what the reason for leaving ZAFT, his contribution to PLANT cannot be erased. I can't watch him die in front of us. on the inaction.”

"Aslan"

"The Sarah family will never give up on any of our fellow adjusters!"

In the end, Kuratis agreed with Aslan's opinion, and of course the other FAITH Heine would not object. The already extremely weak Regret was rushed to Orb via the shuttle.

After receiving the news, Mina arranged for two Deltas to pick up the plane. At the same time, he conveyed the news to Siegfried, who was still in the kingdom. Chambro, who was performing a security mission in the Arctic Ocean, was also urgently transferred back to the mainland.

Since Mayu was also in Orb, the treatment team for enhanced humans was not disbanded. Regret was sent to the secret hospital by Orb as soon as he landed and underwent a preliminary examination.

"How is it going?"

This time Siegfried did not board the submarine carrier again. The Dawn Gundam took off directly from the capital of the kingdom and then crossed half of Eurasia. Eurasia was panicked for a while and thought that the Crimson Cub was trying to find a way for his queen wife to prepare for a single plane. to Eurasia.

"The doctor is not optimistic. Although the degree of transformation is not as good as that of the little girl, the transformation techniques and methods are more crude. They are simply using people as consumables."

Looking at the dusty Siegfried, Mina wanted to give an explanation that sounded more acceptable, but when it came to her words, she chose to tell the truth.

"Does Mayura know?"

"I just asked them to return home urgently, because they might encounter the United States on the way, so I didn't tell her the details, and"

"It's bad enough, let's just say it once and for all."

"The news from ZAFT is that Shiho Hanifus was seriously injured, and it was Regret who did it."

"Me"

Even though Siegfried had already mentally prepared himself, he couldn't help but curse. Of course, he had also received the battle report from Gibraltar. But after all, people in the kingdom didn't know many details clearly, and ZAFT couldn't take the initiative to release a casualty report, so he only found out about Shiho's serious injury now.

Among all the bad news, the only one that can barely be considered good news is that Regret's memory does not seem to have been tampered with as completely as Mayu's. Aslan very generously sent the battlefield records. , after Hilde zoomed in frame by frame, Mina, who was also a pilot, discovered that the black savior finally deflected the angle of the beam saber, which was the only reason why Shiho saved his life.

But Siegfried has no idea how this kind of thing qualifies to be called 'good news'. Putting himself in his shoes, if he were Regret, it might be the biggest mistake to just live in such a muddle until he dies without retrieving his memory. Happiness.

A few days later, Siegfried finally met his old friend. After Orb's first stage of treatment, the sequelae of Extended Man were no longer present, but Siegfried looked at the 'humanoid object' lying on the hospital bed. , who had experienced hundreds of battles and held three figures of lives in his hands, for a moment his chest was completely filled with murderous intent.

"There are a total of 27 surgical marks on the whole body. Like Mayu, most of the tissues have been replaced by machines, and..."

The doctor in charge was an old acquaintance of Siegfried, and he was in charge of everything from Stella to Mayu. However, Regret's situation was far worse than Mayu, so he looked at the young man with blood-stained eyes and thought for a moment. I don't know if I should continue talking or not.

"Tell me, you have to know what they did to my friends so that I can settle the accounts for them one by one, right?"

"Judging from the results of the tests so far, Atlantic has stripped away his sense of smell and taste."

"reason?"

"Have you ever heard that the hearing of blind people is sharper than that of ordinary people?"

"Just because of this?"

"For the time being, we can only guess in this direction. Because we also found that his tactile sensitivity is three times that of ordinary people, and his dynamic visual response is far higher than the level of a normal human being, more like..."

Halfway through the doctor's words, he was obviously hesitant. Siegfried noticed that he asked expressionlessly, "Is it related to me?"

"It can only be said to be similar. His transformation is more like someone following your template and forcibly changing a person's inherent form."

"he"

Siegfried opened his mouth to say something, but found that his voice was trembling. After clenching his fist hard and then unclenching it, he took a deep breath and continued, "How long does he have?"

"It won't take more than half a month. If they still have the slightest idea of ​​using that girl for a long time, then in Regret, I only saw traces of rushing to work. It seems that something happened in the process. They used many unproven technologies on Regret.”

After a long silence, it was the doctor who was the first to be unable to withstand the killing intent in Siegfried. He said with some difficulty: "If you need to restore your memory, just come to me at any time."

"Thanks."

After a long time passed after the doctor left, Siegfried raised his head, stared at the empty front with bright red pupils, and spoke the chilling lines in a cold tone.

‘Hey, how many more people do I need to kill? How many more people need to be killed to prevent this tragedy from happening? ’

‘Tell me, Oluga, Oluga-Itzka. ’
