Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 273 Forced Marriage Act is a Good Excuse
Siegfried looked at Durandal who had extended an invitation to him, and was a little surprised for a while.In his concept, even if he wants to poach someone, the speaker should be gentle and silent, such as the way of Aslan's classic PUA'name is just a code name'.

But at the moment, Durandal didn't know if he was stunned by the phantom pain, and he chose such a straight-forward solicitation method. Siegfried found a relatively reasonable excuse to refuse the offer while he was taking precautions. Looks like a very tempting headhunting invitation.

"Forgive my refusal, Your Excellency Speaker, from my short service experience, loyalty is the most important moral quality of a soldier. If I casually abandon the original company because of the treatment issue, then the Speaker must also There will be doubts, that is, will I abandon ZAFT again? So in order to avoid possible suspicion, let’s treat this incident as if it never happened, and besides, I don’t like forced marriage laws.”

"Oh? Does Casper have a sweetheart in Orb?" Durandal keenly grasped the core of the question, and asked directly.

"Yes."

Siegfried did not further explain whether his lover is an adjusted person or a natural person, whether he has undergone genetic testing, whether he can conceive offspring, etc., highlighting a perfunctory matter.

Durandal also noticed that his attitude seemed to be a little eager. Usually, he is used to making decisions before acting, but this time the Phantom Pain "sticking to the face" taught everyone on Minerva a solid lesson, PLANT It is far from being invincible.

However, Siegfried's refusal did not seem to be beyond his expectations. Whether the other party agrees or refuses this temporary poaching, it seems that Durandal expected it, so he just thanked him again. Fan HCLI returned to the bridge after 'drawing swords to help'.

After such an encounter, Siegfried was at least temporarily free.The battleship is a relatively confined space. At the beginning, even the ban on Maru could not stop the spread of gossip, let alone Minerva, which was full of recruits. It didn't take long for even the cafeteria to know about Siegfried's act of righteousness. , so in the absence of guards, except for some restricted areas, he can already walk around on this ship at will.

Although he had obtained this right, Siegfried was not in a hurry to go back to his room to rest. The armory incident was coming to an end. For him, the purpose of this trip was half completed, but it was also the most important part, that is Putting the nails in the Atlantic's coffin.

Before that, Mina had used various means to direct possible public opinion to the Atlantic. Now that the three of Siegfried are witnesses to the incident, HCLI will make another public speech, which can basically limit PLANT's anger to the Atlantic family. body.

It's a pity that due to the performance gap of the airframes, even Canard's side couldn't keep the abyss. It's really Zaku who doesn't have a backpack. If you change the machine, if you want to run away with all your heart, no one can catch up with them except the pulse.

Siegfried himself also had some small regrets. From a hindsight point of view, if he and Mia hadn't come, Minerva might really have confessed here. The command of the Phantom Pain seems a bit paranoid. The whole action gave Siegfried the feeling that even if he failed to snatch it, he would die with La Minerva.

But he and Mia were both on the boat, so when he became Minerva's savior, he dug a hole for his future self. After all, Ray, if Durandal was caught in the armory incident, the pair For Aub, it was a wild start, and just thinking about it could make him feel a great sense of happiness.

But things have already happened, and there is no point in thinking about it any more. On the contrary, Siegfried is now considering his time to disembark.Judging from the order given by Curatis before leaving the bridge, Minerva is on a pursuit mission, not to mention him, even Durandal can't leave.

The real chance to go has to wait until Minerva discovers that the fragments of Junius have moved and thus changes the target of the battle.At that time, there will be a shuttle to take Durandal back, and there is a high probability that Siegfried can go with him.

However, about the potential danger of the Junius fragments, Mina has already reminded the waste dealer through Lacus, and no one knows whether it will happen now. If it does not happen, the ship will have to chase it all the way to the control of the coalition forces. give up.

If there is still movement of debris, then according to the originally agreed plan, Mina will send the Archangel directly from the Pillar of the Sky. Such a battleship with extremely strong symbolic meaning appears on that occasion. .

Then Canard and Gist will return directly to the Pillar of Heaven from the armory, and then receive their respective mobile suits and go to the Fragment of Junius with the Archangel. His Dragoon Delta will be used as a reinforcement force. When the time comes, there will be only a group of Sara faction remnants, and Orb can completely break them into pieces and accompany the 'Shards' together.

As for Siegfried himself, he can go back to Orb's side openly during the disassembly operation, and leave early before he has established a relationship with the other people on Minerva, so as to save himself from taking this ship in the future. When the boat sinks, incense is still offered during festivals.

"So you are here, Mr. Casper~"

A familiar voice sounded, so familiar that Siegfried knew that it was Mia who came without turning his head, but he was now on the other party's 'site', so Siegfried turned around obediently and performed enough etiquette.

"Miss Lacus, how did you get out of the room?"

"I just heard from the radio that the first battle alert was temporarily lifted, so I came out to take a breath after getting the consent of the chairman. I didn't expect to meet you."

The two spoke insincere lines. Although Mia came alone, and Siegfried had no eyeliner, no one knew how many monitoring devices were installed on this ship. Unknown danger, so it was obviously a tryst of a lonely man and a widow, but it turned into a large-scale scene of acting skills.

But if Mia can finish the play quietly, she won't be called Mia anymore.On the premise of ensuring her appearance, she first glanced left and right, and after finding that no one had entered the aisles on both sides for a short time, she moved a few steps and stood beside Siegfried.

"I haven't had time to formally thank you yet."

"You're welcome. If I really want to thank you, this ship has lined up for three days and three nights from the captain. I can't thank you enough. Finish?"

Siegfried's last syllable was suddenly an octave higher. There was no other reason. Mia scratched his palm with her fingernails very covertly.Originally, acting was not what he was good at, but this moment directly disrupted Siegfried's rhythm, and for a while he even forgot how to answer the following lines.

"If there is a chance, I hope to invite colleagues from your company to visit Spring City. I think the speaker will be very happy, isn't it? Casper?"

A few small movements were not noticed, and Mia became more and more courageous. After quietly moving a step sideways, under the cover of the long skirt, Siegfried could clearly feel that the other party's toes seemed to be touching. On his calf, and more than that, the round thumb is like a naughty child constantly challenging his nerves
　There is something I want to tell readers. The last six months are approaching, and various assessment tasks have begun to reach critical points. For authors who eat public meals, it is a meeting-intensive period and a work sprint period. In the next few days, I can only He said that he would try his best to keep it updated, but he might ask for leave.Considering the perfect attendance award, I honestly confess that I still have four leave vouchers, two of which are reserved for travel in July, so the estimated leave for work reasons is two days at most, which is almost the case, save the manuscript Yes, but a few days ago, I didn’t have many code words and basically relied on saving manuscripts. After all the codes are used up, it will be difficult to deal with urgent matters. I will tell you in advance if I ask for leave. There is no way. After all, writing is a hobby. Don't lose your job.
