Not Super Robot Wars at All

"...Then my brother will join the army next month." Zhen was sitting on the sofa at Ed's house, and Mayo was holding his brother's hand in the wheelchair on the side.

"It's not easy for you to live." Mayu gave Eddy the general situation of the brothers and sisters instead of the less calm Zhen. Is this some kind of coincidence in this world, or is it a butterfly effect? If it’s the latter, it’s a comforting thing, "Is it a military school chosen for the sake of hukou and salary?"

"Stop pretending to be a good person here. What can a high-minded person like you know?"

"Brother!" Mayo squeezed his brother's hand hard, trying to calm him down, "Don't do that. Mr. Lingoes is not malicious to us. And I don't think it's Mr. Lingoes's affairs about mom and dad. mistaken."

"Without this person, there would be no such thing, mom and dad would not die, nor would you—"

"elder brother!"

"But..." Zhen looked at Mayo with a complicated expression, not knowing what to say.

"Mr. Lingos, although I don't know the reason, I am very grateful for your kindness to us for releasing us." Mayo turned his face to Ed, "Please forgive such a brother. In order to pay for my medical expenses and living expenses, my brother, I have been trying to force myself for so many years. He is really a good person. He is only temporarily blinded by impulse. Please don't blame your brother."

Mayo's maturity makes people feel a little distressed. She is only fourteen years old, right? I lost my parents, lost my legs, and couldn't even take care of my basic life. I lay on the hospital bed all day and depended on my only brother. Although my brother is very hardworking and gentle, he is a little impulsive and sometimes unable to see the way. In this case, he can only mature himself.

Mayu has been apologizing to herself instead of Zhen, but Ed sees many things in her determined eyes. Facing such a Mayo, or even such a truth, it is difficult for him to feel any ill feelings.

I remember that "a long time ago", I was really annoying for a while, I was mentally retarded, and impulsive, and acted against the villain and the protagonist, and looked like a righteous person. Later, he understood a little bit. As far as he lost his parents, no one taught him how to think. He had nothing left but revenge towards certain things. In the end, even the legitimacy of revenge, and even the object of revenge, were taken away. Deprived, he doesn't know what else to do except hysterical. In "The Final Ending," Kira smiling and shaking hands with him is a cruel thing.

But in this world, he has been overwhelmed by the pressure of life, he is just a child, so he has to raise his disabled sister alone to grow up, even losing the right to grief and anger. Without the guidance of an adult and running just for life, his spiritual growth may have stopped a long time ago. Although he is now eighteen years old on the outside, he has been stuck at the age of fourteen in his heart. This divergence of physical age and spiritual age is the reason why he is hysterical in front of him now. He is now facing his inexplicable anger, just trying to find a vent for his miserable and incomprehensible life.

"Mayo, your brother and I are about the same age. Just call me by name, and no honorifics." I still have a good impression of my sister Ed.

"That... Mr. Adrian." Mayu looked to C.C. uncomfortably, and shouted timidly after seeing the other person's indifferent expression.

"That's good." Ed smiled at Mayo, and turned to the boy aside, "Really, I can neither understand nor appreciate your hatred. Do you really think I killed your parents? Without me, someone will always create a white demon, and without the white demon Orb will also become a battlefield. If you want to hate who is your freedom, please please, but if you want revenge, I am afraid I am not a suitable target."

"Do you think you can pick yourself clean this way?" Zhenan held his sister's hand. "Mayo, don't be fooled by his appearance. He is an evil warmonger. Nothing will change. "

"I am conscious of the fact that what I make are weapons. I will not deny that these weapons will bring a lot of death, but I never feel that I am an evil warmonger." Ed was a little surprised that he thought of war by himself. At the level of traffickers, it is impossible for the moon as the base camp of Anaheim to teach such things. "The moon has always maintained neutrality, and Anaheim has never incited hatred and conflict. I don’t deny that Anaheim is Relying on war to make a lot of money, but it is not that there is war in Anaheim, but on the contrary, there is war in Anaheim. If you know those arms dealers on the earth did it for product promotion What's the matter, you will be fortunate, as the largest arms dealer, how lucky it is for Anaheim to have the suppressive power of Queen Diana."

"Do you want to say that all this is the fault of the Federation and ZAFT?"

"ZAFT invaded Orb in order to seize Orb's arsenal and mass accelerator, and the Federation will send reinforcements to prevent ZAFT's strategic goal. Both sides just did what was taken for granted in the war. Captain Amuro Ray, the driver of the White Demon,— It was a second lieutenant—just faithfully obeying the army’s orders. If you continue to stay on the moon, you might still have a chance to see him."

"Then why start a war? Why can't everyone get along in peace?" It seems that the military academy does not have any cultural classes, and the world outlook is still at the junior high school stage.

"Race, religion, interest... I will give you as many reasons as I want. Struggle is the instinct of creatures. Human beings have fought from the Stone Age to the cosmic century. Even if one day human beings really evolved to colonize the entire galaxy and the entire universe, believe me, war Will always exist."

"In this case... Isn't it like this..." I really looked at myself with an unacceptable expression, "Isn't it because mom and dad died because of bad luck? I encounter this kind of thing because of my bad luck. ?"

"elder brother…"

"This kind of thing...this kind of thing..." He buried his face weakly into Mayo's chest, "Mayo...I should...who should I hate..."

Mayu didn't speak, but gently hugged Real's head and stroked his hair lightly.

Ed just looked at them silently. After a while, I really looked up from Mayu’s chest embarrassedly: "Thank you, Mr. Adrian, I understand. Human beings are such an incurable creature. Society is like the universe. It's dark. I used to be too naive to see the truth clearly."

"You don't understand anything." Eddy watched him dumbly from one horn tip to another, but it was understandable. Although he was forced to afford other people's lives at a young age, his mental age was nothing more than a child, and it was normal for a child to be horny. "So? The essence of mankind is greedy, dirty, evil and dark, so you are desperate for mankind? Do you want to avenge society and destroy all mankind or assimilate yourself into a great devil?"

"I-"

"You think you know humans? Then tell me, how did this hopeless, self-destructive pest survive the cosmic century? Why didn't it kill each other in the Middle Ages? All the people in history who sacrificed themselves for the happiness of their compatriots were all conspirators with ulterior motives or idiots that you did not understand?"

"History is written by victors. Love, courage, and hope are nothing but literary works that numb the world. It doesn't exist at all." I have given up the debate and entered the stage where I don't listen to me. Ed is very familiar with this scene, let alone the middle two-year-old bear boy, many adults will enter this stage unconsciously when they can't talk about their opponents.

"Isn't the relationship between you and Mayo love? You have been struggling with your sister in your life, don't you still have no courage? Isn't it hope that your brothers and sisters have to work hard for such a sad past?" Wrong After the destruction of the Three Views, it is necessary to rebuild a positive one. The brainwashing lines commonly used by the protagonist in the anime are probably like this, "Can all the beautiful qualities of mankind since its birth be denied with a single sentence?"

"I, I don't know..." The effect seemed unexpectedly good. I got rid of all kinds of intense emotions and calmed down. "Mr. Adrian, please tell me the answer. This question is too complicated, I don't understand..."

"If you don't understand, how old can you understand? I can't tell you the answer to this question, and no one is qualified to tell you. Queen Diana does not, the PLANT Speaker, the Federal President, Confucius, and Kant. , Marx did not. If you don’t understand, just go study, study history, study philosophy, study politics. Even if you can’t find the answer for a lifetime, but it’s good to know a little bit more. At least today, you understand that you don’t actually understand. , This is also progress, right?" The time that was suspended can only be made up by myself.

After a long silence, he suddenly stood up and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Mr. Adrian." Mayo looked at his brother with satisfaction, and then leaned slightly.

Well, although my goal is achieved in terms of results, is this change a bit too fast? I carefully recalled the conversation just now. Although the various debates have played a role, the turning point seems to be love, courage, and hope. Here, I just talked casually according to my feelings. Is it so useful?

"That's right, really." Edd suddenly remembered, "The salary of the army is not high, it is still very difficult to raise Mayo."

"It's already much higher than before, there will always be a way."

"Did you have courses related to MS real machine operation when you were in the military academy?"

"Yes, MS theory and practice. Speaking of which, Mr. Adrian also appeared in the textbook."

"What about your grades?"

"This," scratching his head embarrassedly, "usually full marks."

"That's right, are you interested in coming to Anaheim as an MS tester? The salary is very high."

"But I have signed an agreement with the army..."

"Is it a problem to ask the army for a recruit in my capacity?"

"But Hukou—"

"Anaheim is responsible for solving it, what are the problems?"

…

After making the promise to report to Anaheim next week, the Asuka brothers and sisters left.

"Is your personality a little broken?" CC looked at the person in front of him and felt strange for a long time. "And I found out that you are not interested in your sister, but your brother. Is Lacus just a cover, you are actually Over there?"

"C.C., I didn't figure it out, why did he suddenly figure it out?" Ed had no intention of joking now.

"Don't you understand what you did yourself?" CC took it for granted. "A child finally corrected his three wrong views under the guidance of an adult, and with the courage and hope of his beloved sister, he headed for tomorrow. Work hard, what can't you understand?"

"Did he change too quickly?" Ed wants to express more than this, but he can only say that with CC, "If another eloquent villain comes out to cheat him, will he change back again? NS?"

"Probably not." C.C. didn't understand what Ed was struggling with. "He already wants to understand, what is really important to him."

"No, I mean..." He didn't understand, and he was very irritable. He wanted Alice by his side at the moment, "-I'm sorry, it's a little urgent, go out."

C.C. looked at Ed with a look of sorrow and left himself to go out alone.

Every minute of the short thirty-minute journey was suffering, until he entered the cockpit of Yin Lei, he slumped in the driver's seat like putting down a heavy load.

"Isn't Ed going to accompany the guests today?"

"...I just want to talk to you suddenly." The irritability has alleviated a lot.

"Really, Ed?" The tone is a bit high and the volume is a bit loud, perhaps expressing a surprise emotion, "Anyway, let's play the music first."

It really became a music player, he thought a little happily. The familiar environment made people feel inexplicably relaxed. He chose a playlist called the minority, and the piano sound of the prelude to "learearth" sounded in the cockpit.

"Alice." He closed his eyes, as if intoxicated by the music, and as if talking to himself, "I took a little brother with my mouth today."

"Sorry, Ed, I don't quite understand..."

"But there is no sense of accomplishment at all, but I don't know why the mood is complicated." Violin joined in.

"..."

"It's not quite right to say that it is to tune and teach the evil taste of bear children. It is not to say that it is a dislike of self in the second period."

"..."

"Now, Alice. If you say a person, if you are loved, courage, and hopeful in a few words, is it childish and pathetic?" Listening to the prelude is obviously a very gentle tune, and it suddenly becomes intense for some reason. stand up.

"Sorry, Ed. I understand the definitions of these words, but I can't understand..."

"Why are you a little bit envious..."
