Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 23 The Twisted Battlefield and the Strange Harrow ([-])

Following the explosion of the Nelson, GINN's weapons returned to green mode, and control of the machine returned to Siegfried.No matter how the boy shouted, Harrow never gave any response, as if nothing had happened just now.

ZAFT saw that the machine that originally belonged to Beagle stopped evading, and immediately put it in the quasi-target without any hesitation, and then the 76MM machine gun bullets rained down like raindrops.

"Hello, hello, if you don't fight, you will die."

The locked alarm in the cockpit kept beeping, and Haro put away the behavior of "playing dead". Obviously, under its operation, GINN's evasion was even a little more flexible than Siegfried's, but after the goal was achieved, he wanted to avoid it. Return control of the unit.This kind of behavior made the familiar electronic sound of Harrow fall into Siegfried's ears at this time, and it was hard to tell whether it was more like irony or more of a fool.

Subconsciously dodging the rain of bullets, Siegfried was still immersed in Harrow's betrayal, or Hilde's backstab.He has always felt that he has only Hilde as a relative in this world, and that the two should have the same life experience and the same goal, but he turned out to be Hilde's marionette.
The opponent's ordinary attack seemed to have touched an emotional switch in Siegfried's heart, and the next second he looked at the opponent's body, as if he could vaguely perceive the next move of the enemy MS in advance.

"Left, left, right, down."

Once upon a time, when he was still in Mendel, the boy who used to rest his feet on the dashboard, he had been driving the hovercar in this 'foreseeing' way.At that time, he simply thought that he had memorized the map. At that time, boys and girls depended on each other. At that time, the two words Hilde said the most were to go home. At that time, Siegfried did not know where he was. He is not at home, but he is carefree, thinking that maybe it is okay to live with Hilde for the rest of his life.

"Why did you lie to me!!!"

Silent shouting, Hilder's promise in Heliopolis is still in his ears, but the reality finally gave Siegfried a resounding slap in the face. Before he crossed here, what was Hilder? The time came. Siegfried didn't know what he had experienced after staying alone in Mendel's isolated place for so long, and maybe he would never have the chance to know.

The boy's anger was burning, and GINN, as the opponent, found that the entire operation mode of this MS of the same model as himself had been completely changed.The crosshairs of the sights couldn't catch the opponent no matter what, and all the shots in the panic fell into the empty space.

Siegfried's mobile suit obviously had a new magazine, but he didn't have any intention of shooting until the two mobile suits completely closed the distance, and the blade of the heavy chopping knife became bigger and bigger in front of the opponent's eyes, until it was completely dark.
On the bridge of the Archangel, the development of things has caused everyone including Bucky Lulu to lose their ability to speak. First, Siegfried deliberately sold George Alusta's battleship, so that only the entire advance fleet was left. A Drake class, and then ZAFT's NASCAR class seized the main guns of this fighter and sank the only remaining Drake class, and finally Siegfried's GINN used an 'inhuman' brutal way to kill The other party's MS.

Yes, after the heavy chopping knife pierced through the cockpit, it seemed that he was afraid that the opponent's death would not be thorough enough. Siegfried drew back the blade twice in a row and pierced the cockpit twice. After the enemy completely exploded, he immediately aimed at Mu and Mu. The GINN fighting together.It was that weird way of maneuvering again. Mu tried to cover the friendly assault, but even the zero-type mobile suit couldn't keep up with Siegfried's movement route. He stepped on Ginn's shoulder from top to bottom, and the assault machine gun Aiming at the hatch above the cockpit, the flames flashed, and another mobile suit became a number on Siegfly's down list.

With the entire army of allies attacking together annihilated, the Holy Shield also gave up the entanglement with the assault, and after pulling away from the distance, it directly transformed into a MA form and left the battle. This sudden start and abrupt end of the battle ended like this The curtain fell on everyone's incomprehensible emotions.

Yes, from the beginning to the end, Fleur didn't have time to hold Lux ​​hostage. From the sinking of George Alusta's battleship to the sudden explosion of Siegfried, in just a few minutes, the Archangel and his party completely dominated the battlefield.If it wasn't for the Vesalius being a high-speed warship, Bucky Lulu might order to push back directly.

But many things will not end with the end of the battle. In the past, Siegfried, who was the first to return to the ship, became the last pilot to return this time. After opening the hatch, he found that Marduk Everyone inside looked at him with strange eyes.

Others don't know Harrow's betrayal, and no one even knows Hilde's existence.In the eyes of these people, Siegfried allowed the three friendly warships to be shot down just to vent his anger. Before the combination, almost everyone knew about the conflict between him and Fleur. Although no one spoke for a while, their eyes were on An inexplicable meaning.

Knowing that he couldn't explain it, and he couldn't explain it, Siegfried was about to leave Ganaku with Harrow in his arms, but was stopped by Mu.

"Young man, you need to give me an explanation. This is not something that a partner fighting side by side can do. I don't care what conflicts you have with that girl, but the Eighth Fleet is our friendly army. You can't."

"I'm sorry Captain Frada, I'm tired, I accept any punishment, that's all."

Opening Mu with a wave of his hand, Siegfried coldly rejected the other party's request, then turned and left completely holding Haro.And these news, along with Fleur's angry screams, quickly spread throughout the entire Archangel.Mario tried to block the spread of rumors, but for a warship full of civilians, simple military orders can't play a big role.

Not only Siegfried, but even Kira felt those strange gazes. The originally friendly maintenance team turned their backs to him and started whispering. The most important ones are those closest partners, Miri and Thor are okay, Kaz completely starts to avoid Kira, and Fleur looks at Kira with unforgettable hatred.

In the corridor, Siegfried met the little girl in the hotel again, but this time there was no childish greeting, and the only response to Siegfried was being hugged tightly by the proprietress, and the girl's puzzled eyes .

After returning to the room, Lux had already left, and she couldn't stay here any longer after the battle was over.Before Cagalli could say anything, Siegfried angrily smashed Harrow to the ground. Harrow, who had been treated like this in the past, had already begun to fight back with his mouth, but this time he didn't make any sound.

"They all said you were out to vent your anger. I don't believe it. I want to hear your answer."

The hand that was trying to reach out stopped halfway. For some reason, Kajiali suddenly felt empty in her heart.

"Yes, you heard it right, it's for me to vent my anger, that's the kind of person I am."

Looking at the girl's hand in front of him, the familiar touch has not dissipated, but the boy shattered the girl's only hope with the coldest answer.

"Yes, because I am an adjustment person, venting my anger is a very normal behavior, yes, I am such a despicable person, yes, so just keep a distance from me, Kajiali Yula-as ha."

Hearing such an answer, Kajiali didn't hesitate, but just as she was about to put her hand on the red head as usual, a huge force made her feel what is called 'pain'.

Waving open Cagalli's kind touch, Siegfried was stunned for a moment, but then recovered his indifferent expression, picked up Harrow on the ground and left the room without saying a word.

"Saci Closlauder, please go to the war room immediately, Saci Closlauder, please go to the war room immediately."

Continuous notifications sounded throughout the Archangel, which made the already rumored ship even more restless, and Siegfried, who knew he couldn't hide, also came to the war room, and it was the Archangel who was waiting for him trio.

"Sha Ci, I need you to explain what you did today. No matter what your reasons or grievances are, as long as you tell me, I can do it"

Bucky Lulu, who thought it was the most difficult to speak, spoke first, but unexpectedly gave a step to make concessions. According to her statement, she seemed to want to characterize this incident as a combat error caused by impulsiveness.

"Second Lieutenant, don't ask any more questions. I have no way to explain today's behavior. Everyone on the bridge can see clearly. Even if you are willing to cover me up, the entire ship has already known about this. We have already lost The most basic thing in cooperation is trust.”

"We trust you, as long as you can."

"Heh, don't lie to yourself. You still have Kira and Assault. After ZAFT's defeat today, it will not be able to form combat power in a short period of time. Now is the time when I is least needed, so I accept any punishment, even though I Not a member of the United Earth, but if this matter ends hastily, it must be difficult for you to give everyone an explanation."

Faced with Siegfried's lack of excuses, Mario looked at his deputy in embarrassment, and then looked at Mu, the commander of the nominal MS team. After both expressed their approval, he immediately announced that Siegfried punishment decision.

"Starting today, Saci-Klauslaud is prohibited from contacting mobile suits and leaving the room. This decision will continue until the rendezvous between the Archangel and the Eighth Fleet."

Nodding his head to show that he agrees with the punishment, Siegfried got up and was about to leave, but Bucky Lulu quickly walked up to the boy and spoke in a serious tone.

"No matter what your reasons are, whether you are a professional soldier or not, this way of fighting is not advisable. This is the truth you taught me, and I think you should understand it."

"Yes, I know."

Unable to hear the emotionally fluctuating answer, under Bucky Lulu's frowning gaze, the boy slowly walked out of the war room with his tired body.

"Tsk! I don't believe that boy would do such a thing."

Mu hammered the table hard, as if to strengthen his persuasion.

"I don't believe it either, Captain, but you can see the battle more clearly than we do. The reality will not lie, and he himself is unwilling to explain. We have no other way."

After leaving the war room, he found that Kira was anxiously waiting for him at the door. Siegfried looked at him strangely, as if he couldn't understand why he saw him here.

"I'm afraid they will punish you, so."

"Don't you hate me, Kira? That's Fleur's father's ship. It was sunk under my indulgence. Don't you hate me at all? Kira-Yamato?"

"I guess Sat has her own pain and some other things I can't understand, but anyway I'm sure it was never meant by you, so."

"Heh, you're such a good person, Kira, but you should worry about that little princess, your friend's fiancée. From now on, most people on this ship will not hide their ill will from the adjuster, so you have to be careful. Think about what she should do."

Without habitual waving, under Kira's pensive gaze, Siegfried's back just disappeared around the corner, leaving only the embarrassing silence.
