Not Super Robot Wars at All

At 7:30 a.m. on Monday morning, Ed was waiting for Amuro and his party at the Copernicus Cosmoport. In order to express the importance of this cooperation, the director personally picked up the plane and gave great respect to the Federation.

Standing beside him was an unknown lunar officer. According to the principle of equal status in diplomacy, the highest-ranking person sent by the earth is only Lieutenant Colonel Bright Noah, so the moon has appointed a colonel as the person in charge of this contact. Ed was very happy that General Kinkalam didn't come in person. In every sense, he didn't like that person very much.

As the meeting time approached, he suddenly felt a throb in his heart. A huge, gentle, depressed, and sad will from the other side of the starry sky was connected to him far away, and the other party's depression made him empathize. No words or explanations are needed. He confirmed the identity of the other party and his own in an instant.

The resonance with Amuro made his mood a bit low. This feeling was too clear and vivid, making him seem to be able to personally experience everything Amuro had experienced. But he quickly woke up. This was not his feelings, not his cognition, it was a hypocritical resonance, and it was impossible for him and Amuro to understand each other.

But the illusion just now is so real, what if one's consciousness really feels in common with Amuro? Knowing and understanding some things are really different. He now vaguely understands why Camus is crazy.

While he was thinking about it, Akama was already docked at the dock. A group of men in federal uniforms came here under the leadership of an officer, and the Lunar Army colonel next to him approached him. Ed recognized Amuro in the crowd at a glance, not through his rank or appearance, but the induction still working vaguely telling him that this person was the person who resonated with him just now. Amuro stared at Ed without shy away, his eyes were complicated.

"Hello, Dr. Lingos, I am Lieutenant Colonel Brett Noah, the person in charge of this operation." The officer walked to him, he was not a soldier, he did not salute but reached out to himself.

"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Noah." Ed shook Bright's outstretched hand. "On behalf of Anaheim, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Union military for cooperation, and on behalf of myself, I would like to express to Lieutenant Colonel and Lieutenant Ray. grateful."

"Although it was the first time I met the doctor, I was saved by the masterpiece of the doctor during the One Year War. I don't know how many times I should say thank you." Bright smiled sincerely, "Let me Introduce, this is the central figure of this operation, Captain Amuro Ray."

"Hello, Dr. Lingoes." Amuro stepped forward and shook hands with Ed, without saying much. Both knew they needed to talk, but not now.

The group drove to the institute. Ed directly explained the following arrangements to Amuro in the car: "We have limited time this time, and we will start work today. Captain Lei, our primary goal is to determine the spirit. The observation methods, metrics, and methods of induction. Based on the information you provided before, we have established a total of 14 model hypotheses. Our task today is to verify these models one by one to see if any of them are truly effective and sensitive to psychosis. Reactive."

"Dr. Adrian, if you don't mind, please call me by name." Amuro looked at Bright in the co-pilot seat, "In a sense, we are also very familiar."

During the One Year War, Amuro, as the pilot of Gundam, had been giving feedback to Anaheim on a regular basis. At that time, it was the designer Ed himself who was responsible for handling these feedbacks. Fortunately, Amuro is not the same as the semi-illiterate soldiers. He has a good technical level. Every report given can accurately reflect the real situation and problems encountered, and he will help Ed in the follow-up work. Brought great convenience.

Although the two have never met each other, and did not pass the conversation out of the principle of confidentiality, they are subtlely familiar with each other.

"Then Captain Amuro." Ed is kind and good. "The arrangements will be tight these days. Please be mentally prepared."

"Don't care." Amuro smiled at him, "It is a soldier's duty to obey orders."

After a busy day at work, Amuro finally found the correct and effective one after trying twelve models. After sampling a large amount of data using this model, the work was temporarily handed over to the analysts, and Amuro was finally free. At Ed's invitation, the two came to his office.

"Can you two leave a little bit?" Ed looked at the two hunks behind Amuro, who was responsible for "protecting" him. "The next thing I'm going to talk about is trade secrets. Please cooperate."

The two looked at each other. One of them took out his cell phone and made a call. After getting permission from what is estimated to be Bright, the two soldiers apologized to Ed and finally left the office.

"Dr. Adrian, I didn't expect that the person I felt on the boat turned out to be you." Amuro opened the topic straight to the point, without interrogating each other, he directly understood the other's kindness, and he believed Ed could also understand His, "You turned out to be a new human..."

"I just woke up recently under an emotional impulse, and I couldn't be sure that this is the so-called NewType until the morning. I don't want to make it public for the time being, and I hope you can keep it secret." Amuro nodded naturally, "There is another question. I want to ask you, will NT be like us in the morning? Isn't it impossible to live a normal life? Can this ability be freely controlled?"

"It seems that I misunderstood you. I'm sorry. Generally speaking, there are only general feelings between NTs. This morning, I perceive the unfamiliar NT and actively resonate with you." Amro looked at Ed. Eyes, "But you quickly refused, right."

"Yes, I thought—"

"No need to explain, you are correct." Amuro smiled self-deprecatingly, "When I met Lara, I thought humans could understand each other. But I was wrong, but I happened to understand each other with Lara. That's it. Even Xia and I are both NTs and can't understand each other, what human beings are talking about?"

Ed did not ask who Lara was, nor did he have to recall what Amuro had any grievances with her. A feeling of sadness and loneliness enveloped this office. He did not refuse this time, and experienced it carefully. , And even felt a trace of gentleness inherited from Lara Xin. Obviously he had never met before, but he inexplicably felt close to her. It is as if the director personally shook his hand and told him that Lara is a good girl. There is no need to doubt this fact, because I am the director.

A sense of distorted vigilance caused Ed to cut off the spiritual connection with Amuro, and Amuro's complicated eyes appeared in front of him.

"Look, that's it." Amuro's voice was a little depressed. "Humans cannot understand each other because they don't want to understand each other. This is the ultimate answer of NT."

"Captain Amuro, I haven't thought about such a big proposition as human beings." Ed carefully considered the words, "but I can't accept it. An emotion I have never experienced is written into my mind. It's like my cognition has been forcibly distorted by external forces."

"NewType could say such a thing..." Amuro looked a little surprised, "You are very different from us..."

"Captain Amuro, I don't know why you are so entangled in understanding each other, and my thinking level is not as high as that of all mankind." He remembered CC's cognition changing the world, "I have no intention of exploring you and Chara and Ra. The secret between Miss La, I also have a lot of secret emotions I don’t want you to know, but we can skip suspicion and temptation and talk frankly like this, I think it is the credit of this ability. It is just this degree of mutuality. Understanding, at most this level of mutual understanding, I feel very satisfied."

The atmosphere was a bit solemn, Amuro still looked incomprehensible, and Ed could not find a better language to describe his thoughts. He hesitated, then tried to do what Amuro did just now.

This is a new feeling that Amuro hasn't experienced before. It is different from Lala’s gentle and all-inclusive love, and from Char’s sharp, powerful obsession. This is a clumsy, agile, confused, persistent, expectant, and indifferent will. Struggling to build the last fortress with reason in the frenzied turbid stream of consciousness, unyieldingly declare war on the whole world, and also on the initiator himself.

Amuro was shocked.

"...You are not the same as us. No wonder you asked how to control this ability when you came up. In your opinion, the power of telepathy is just a kind of special tool, and it is not fundamentally different from other powers." There is no point in lying between NTs. Ed nodded calmly, "You are neither as pessimistic as I am, nor as superstitious as Char that NT can lead mankind. You just treat it as an objective existence."

"Isn't it an objective existence?"

"Humans cannot go through all the experiences of others, but the so-called mutual understanding means accepting each other's feelings without empathy? Maybe the starting point of this behavior of mutual understanding is wrong." Amuro smiled bitterly. "The so-called new mankind is nothing more than a wrong evolution in the millions of years of human evolution. Both Xia and I are only defective products of evolutionary failure. Maybe you are right. NT is not used to understand each other at all."

"Captain Amuro, the power of telepathy seems to me similar to other laws of science. It is not for what I want, but what I want to use it for."

"...Dr. Adrian, you have not personally experienced the war." Amuro lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and then suddenly said, "I and Cha Ya, a war experiencer, have some kind of delusion that the war can be wiped out once and for all. , And the new human beings are the only thing that makes us different. We bet all our hopes on it. I failed and gave up. As you can see, I am now like this. Xia hasn’t given up yet, but his ideas may go. On the extreme road."

"Sorry, I can't understand. I don't believe that war can be eliminated."

"So you and we have different views on'understanding' itself." Amuro raised his head and looked straight into Ed's eyes. "I was dazzled by the joy of understanding with Lara, and Chara couldn't It’s just relying on lesbians. We don’t think wisely. You are the only one who is a new human, but you are thinking about the existence of the new human from the perspective of an outsider."

Wait, the atmosphere is not right. What is the atmosphere of the previous protagonist and the new generation of protagonists? Did he play the role of Camus? No, it's very unlucky, okay.

"Your quality is very good, and I easily cut off the induction with me. You must know that Xia was obsessed with similar feelings and couldn't extricate herself." Amuro's tone was very sincere, which made people embarrassed to interrupt, "Seeing you I just know that new humans can do the same. It’s because Xia and I have too narrow vision. I have seen in you what a real new human should be. Maybe you are the right direction of evolution."

But he didn't evolve at all. If he insisted, it was the invasion of foreign species and sudden mutation. It was a fake.

"I can feel that you don't accept my statement, but it doesn't matter. I see in you the human, NewType possibility." The sad atmosphere just now seems to disappear, "Dr. Adrian, I will Actively cooperate with your research. You are right, even if it is used as a tool, this ability should be used on the right path."

"Captain Amuro, excuse me for being rude." He could vaguely sense Amuro's changes, "have you changed your mind?"

"Your reason, your thinking, surpassed the will that words directly conveyed to me. It is a wonderful resonance." Amuro stretched out his finger and nodded on his temple, and showed Ed with a refreshing smile, "Same for What you said as a new human is understandable, right?"
