Siegfried knew that out of concern, Cagalli dropped all her duties at the Ministry of Defense and rushed to Dawn Society as soon as possible. However, since the war started, his attitude toward Orb and Uzmi has reached its peak of disappointment.

Whether to leave or not, whether to stay or not, use ideals as slogans and the people as sacrifices. This sense of anger built up under the national policy reached its peak after Siegfried witnessed the Asuka family's experience.

He knew that he shouldn't criticize Cagalli harshly. All this had nothing to do with her. As an ordinary person who had been idle for more than ten years and was suddenly asked to take over as the supreme commander of the National Defense Force, Cagalli was now at her limit. Not to mention that her father only thought about coexisting with the country and completely left the future mess to his daughter and Siegfried.

"Let the rescue team keep an eye on whether a girl named Mayu is still at the location of the firefight. If you find her, please send it to Colonel Todaka. Sorry, I'm a little tired."

He tried hard to raise the corners of his mouth and smile at Cagalli, but Siegfried found that he couldn't smile no matter what. The blood on his hands had not yet solidified, and he couldn't even use his bloody fingers to hold up the corners of his mouth. Abnormal action, he had no choice but to nod to Cagalli, and then walked straight out of Gnaku.

Erica looked at the gray Yan Hong attack and shook her head remembering the rumors Marduk told her on the Archangel. "The nightmare of the maintenance team is really just right."

It turned out that there were four mobile suit pilots on the Archangel. Except for Mu, who was a newcomer and Marduk had not yet taken over his preparation work, the three mobile suit pilots of Siegfried, Kira, and Regret were only Qi. Ge Fei needs an overhaul every time he comes back. Although this has a lot to do with the fact that he originally drove Ginn, his personal combat style is obviously also an important reason.

Now it was Erica who took over Siegfried's preparation work. Looking at the guy who lost an entire IWSP backpack in the first attack, she could only sigh, and then asked her staff to quickly bring out the spare parts and prepare them. Get another backpack together.

Then she walked over to Cagalli, who was silent, and looked at her princess who looked lost. This woman who was already a mother knew very well about the feelings between young people, but as an outsider, it was difficult for her to understand this kind of relationship. What kind of help can emotions provide, so I could only pat Cagalli on the head and say meaningfully, "He has tried his best. Many times when you try hard, you still find that nothing can be changed. It will inevitably affect yourself and the people around you." If someone is disappointed, give him some time."

"I don't mean to force him."

"But the country is pushing him."

Erica looked at Siegfried's leaving figure, and there was another sentence she chose to bury in her heart, that is, judging from the news she got from her channels, Uzmi also forced Siegfried to some extent. Choice, even if this kind of coercion is in the name of 'goodwill', is it really the right choice to leave Orb's future to his daughter and a boy?

Dragging his exhausted body, Siegfried leaned against the wall in a deserted corridor. The radio was informing several people, including him, to quickly go to the headquarters. He knew that Uzmi was going to explain his funeral. Just like that, he slowly slid to the ground without any intention of going over.

"So tired."

Throughout C.E.71, from January to June, the constant high-density battles had exhausted Siegfried's mind. Unlike Kira, who had also gone through Lux's decompression, since Hilde left, Siegfried I never opened my heart to anyone again.

With Cagalli? At this juncture when the other party's father was about to die for his country, his own emotions seemed not worth mentioning. With Regret? That guy would probably just tell himself to kill a few more unions. After going around in circles for more than half a year, the young man realized that he seemed to be back to where he started.

The cold touch on his forehead made him raise his head. Jiang Kelly's tall figure appeared in front of him. The lieutenant colonel found a can of iced drink from somewhere and placed it on the young man's forehead.

"tired?"

"A little bit, the combined strength is more than ten times ours, of course it will."

"I'm not asking this, are you tired?"

"."

"I have also experienced this kind of process, so I can barely understand it."

"Lieutenant Colonel. How did you get through it?"

Jiang Kelly seemed to have heard something interesting. A funny expression appeared on his always serious face. He waved his hands and replied, "Survive? No, no, no, there is no such thing as getting over it. I'm just numb." That’s all.”

"Do you regret it, Lieutenant Colonel? We will lose again within a few days of arriving at Orb."

"Although war is about winning and losing, war is not just about winning and losing."

Siegfried didn't agree with Jiang Kelly's point of view. In his opinion, losing means losing. If everyone is dead, what else is there to say? Things like spirit, will, and fire don't sound like it. Reliable, but before he could continue to speak, Director Erica found himself in front of him.

"Uzumi-sama lets you"

"I said I won't go. I've said everything I need to say. I'll be with him to the end no matter what he wants."

"You're the only one this time."

"What on earth do you want from me!!!" The high-pitched voice caught Erica off guard, "Does this country treat its own people as human beings? Do you know that I just saved a family of four? , my father is dead, my mother is disabled, and my sister is missing. Is this the neutrality of your Orb? Is this the spirit of the Asgha family?!"

Siegfried no longer cared about the fact that Jiang Kelly was by his side, nor did he care whether the newcomer might have a distorted view of Orb because of his words. He just wanted to vent his inner dissatisfaction. Since returning from Panama, Cagalli's tired eyes, the suicide note handed to him by Regret before the war, and the blood of Asuka's mother have completely pushed him, who is just an ordinary person, to a desperate situation.

Erica looked at Siegfried's sad and angry face, and wanted to say, 'This is war.' But when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them out. Jiang Kelly next to her waved her hand and handed it over to him. , the director of the development department of Shuguang Society left the passage with some sadness.

"It's better to go and meet. After all, you are fighting for this country, even if it is not good enough."

"If it weren't for Cagalli"

"That princess and this country are two sides of the same coin. There is no difference."

Siegfried, who was sitting in the aisle, hesitated for a moment, then stood up and looked up at Jiang Kelly, "No matter what, it's great that you're fine, Lieutenant Colonel. If you can't fight, just run away. The United just wants the dawn." It’s just a social and quality accelerator.”

"I have already surrendered once. If I try to escape a second time, I will completely lose my pride as a soldier. After all, I am also a shining evil star J."

He wanted to pat the other party's shoulder with a wry smile, but found that he couldn't reach it even with his tiptoes. Siegfried could only give up the idea. After bidding farewell to Jiang Kelly, he came to Uzmi's room, just as Erica said. , there were only two people in the whole room, Uzmi and him.

"sit?"

"No, just say what you have to say."

"Orb is going to lose"

"Are you leaving?"

"I'm afraid it won't be as you wish."

Uzumi looked at the boy in front of him and rubbed his eyebrows. Since the last conversation, he found that the other party didn't care much about the so-called Orb spirit. All he cared about was Cagalli's feelings.

Not only that, Uzmi could even feel that everything Siegfried did to Orb was filled with hatred, and a large part of this hatred came from Uzmi's irresponsible father, and even If it weren't for Cagalli's existence, I'm afraid Siegfried wouldn't even have the intention to help.

"You must feel that it is my selfishness that has caused countless family tragedies, and that I have even forced this burden on Cagalli, right?"

"Is not it!"

"Question one, if you were sitting in my position, could you come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, to protect your country and people without being dragged into this crazy war?"

"."

"Question two, if this war eventually goes out of control, how can you avoid the possible demise of mankind?"

"."

"Question three, if the future Orb is handed over to you instead of my idiot daughter, can you lead this country to avoid being involved in war again?"

"."

"So, you know that surrendering to the Alliance or PLANT is the only answer. You know that you can't do anything, so you choose to escape. But I tried hard, but I only got your disgust, right?"

"If you choose to die, isn't that an escape?"

"The Atlantic government needs an explanation, and my death is that explanation. Only in this way will they let Cagalli go. If they can't get this explanation, they won't stop even if I blow up Kaguya and the Dawn Society. "

"But."

"As the leader of a country, he died without hesitation. I think this move will definitely bring even a glimmer of courage to all countries that long for peace!"

Although Uzumi was just sitting there at this moment, there was unquestionable firmness in his tone. Just like Siegfried asked himself countless times, he could hate Orb, or he could disapprove of Uzmi's usual behavior, but he could not blame the Orb lion who was determined to die for his country.

Siegfried never felt that it was difficult for him to speak. He pursed his dry lips and said, "Then you have to leave some helpers for your daughter, right? Haven't you considered how she will rebuild?" Is it about Orb?”

"This Orb government is all war criminals in the eyes of the Alliance. If we don't die, how can the Alliance allow another Orb to reappear?"

"Whether you change your name or hide your name, you can't let that idiot Cagalli take over this mess with nothing! And what do you want to say when you come to me? If it's just to cover the retreat, I said I will definitely do it. "

Before Siegfried could finish speaking, Uzmi took out a document from the cabinet behind him and handed it directly to Siegfried's hand with his puzzled eyes.

"This is the marriage contract between Cajiali and the Sailan family and the Asghar family's statement of breach of contract. It has my autograph and the seal of the Asgha family. Whether it needs to be announced in the future and when it will be announced are all It’s up to you.”

“Uzmi”

"If possible, you can also call me father."

"old man."

Siegfried reached out and took the document, his mind went blank. Cagalli's engagement has always been an unresolved issue. He didn't know what Uzmi's mentality was when he decided to marry the baby of the Sailan family. Maybe at that time The Sailan family has not yet exposed their wasteful nature. But he knew that Uzmi could only break the contract for one reason now, and that was himself.

"Why did you choose me? Can you tell me the truth? I don't believe you are a father who respects Cagalli's personal preferences. If you were, there shouldn't be anything wrong with the Sailan family."

Siegfried asked a question that had been on his mind for a long time, that is why it must be him. He didn't think that he had shown any special abilities, or that Uzmi was a father who obeyed his daughter's wishes. Compared with the future of the country, the affair between children and other things was simply ridiculous.

"Because if you were born in Mendel, you can see the future, but I can only stay in the past."

There is no battle in these two chapters, but they are extremely difficult to deal with. It took almost half a day to write, delete and delete more than 3,000 words. Because the original work has loopholes in the processing of this part, it cannot be ruled out that there is deliberate sensationalism in it, so It would be a little difficult for fellow fans to plug the hole.

In fact, Uzmi has been in PUA Siegfried. He knows that Cagalli cannot handle Orb's future, so in addition to keeping Kira as a trump card, he has been putting pressure on Siegfried mentally (including but not limited to: you Yes, I believe in you, you will definitely be able to do it, I have given you everything I know at the bottom of the box, I hope you can do it, etc. etc.). Including this marriage contract dissolution letter, he can take it out by himself, but he must give it to Siegfried to make his own decision. To a certain extent, it is also a kind of PUA.

I will probably rest for a few days after Orb finishes writing, I'm a little tired.
