Gundam SEED: Eastern Enlightenment
Chapter 55: Freeloading
The people of Desert Dawn brought Cagalli and Kira to the Tiger's base town to purchase new weapons and food.
The two went alone to buy some daily necessities for the crew, while the others went to trade with the arms dealers. Bakilulu also took the gloomy Frey out to relax. The helmsman Noid was also helpless. This was an important matter, and the captain actually asked them to take care of the children.
"Under the circumstances at that time, Kira would have died if he went out." Bakirulu didn't expect that this time it would be her turn to be a spiritual mentor. Maru really looked up to her. She herself hasn't recovered yet, but looking at poor Frey, Bakirulu could only do her best to comfort her.
"But…"
"No buts? The Eighth Fleet was completely destroyed. If you want your father to live, there will be no Kira after the Archangel. Maybe even if we die, your father should want you to live. At that time, your father should be glad that you stayed on the Archangel.
So, stop blaming anyone, live your life well with your father's expectations, and start your own life after returning to Alaska."
"But I really miss my dad." Fulei was already in tears after saying this.
Seeing that everyone around was looking at Frey in the jeep, Bakilulu could only hug Frey in her arms and comfort her.
"Don't cry, Frey. This is still the territory of the Desert Tiger." BuckyLulu said in a low voice.
"Lin Chu is also my younger brother whom I have known since childhood. I feel sad, but we still have to live well. They must hope so too."
Frey's mood finally calmed down, and Bakilulu breathed a sigh of relief, but then she felt a emptiness in her heart.
On the other side, Kira and Cagalli finally finished shopping and came to a barbecue stall to eat, and then they happened to meet the Desert Tiger Andre.
Andre noticed the idealistic Cagalli and her foolish and clear aura at first sight.
Then, Cagalli and Andre started arguing over whether to put spicy or sour sauce on the barbecue. Kira looked at the two piles of barbecue with different flavors of sauce in front of him awkwardly. Why was I the one who got hurt?
Just as two people were fooling around and one was injured, a member of Blue Universe rushed out with a gun intending to assassinate Andre.
"For the blue and peaceful world!"
"Da da da…"
"..."
Kira pulled Cagalli over and made her lie down. Andre grabbed the table as a shield and started to fight back with his gun.
In the end, Kira used a spinning gun and a flying kick to save Andre's life.
Seeing that Cagalli was in a mess because of the gunfight, Andre took Kira and Cagalli back to clean up and visit.
Kagali and Kira were then inexplicably taken to the tiger's residence.
"Andy, is that her?" Elsa, wearing a blue slim-fitting dress and with a tall and elegant temperament, looked like a blue butterfly and looked at Cagalli.
"Well, help the girl clean up. She's covered in chili sauce, yogurt sauce, and tea."
"Oh, you must have eaten barbecue. Come on, follow me."
"Ka, cagalli."
"Don't worry, just go sit with Andy."
So Cagalli was taken away by the gentle Aisha to be cleaned up, and Kira and Andre sat opposite each other.
"Sit down, and make yourself comfortable."
Andre brought two cups of coffee, handed one to Kira, and then the two began to discuss evidence No. 01, the whale stone.
"Andy~" Aisha knocked on the door.
"Please come in." Cagalli, wearing a green dress, followed Aisha in shyly.
“Girls…?” Kira’s eyes widened.
"You guy!"
"No..., I just want to say that you are indeed a girl."
"What's the difference!"
Andre and Aisha laughed at the two people's reactions.
…, after a while, Aisha left Andre alone, and the other three finally sat down and talked.
"Are you really the Desert Tiger? Why did you choose this dress? Is this one of your hobbies?"
"Why do you say that? It was Aisha who picked out the dress, so what do you mean by other hobbies?"
"You wandered around the town in disguise, drove out the residents and then burned it down, didn't you?" Cagalli asked with hatred in her eyes.
"It's a nice look, very straightforward, a good look."
"What a joke!"
"Cagali..."
"Do you think death is better than life? What about you? Do you think so? How can we end this war? What do you think as a mobile suit?" Andre turned and asked Kira.
"You, how did you know?" The two people realized that their identities had been exposed.
"Hahaha, it's not good to be too straightforward. War is different from sports games. There are no scores, no winners or losers. So how do you determine the winner? When will it end?" Andre laughed and walked to the drawer of his office and took out the gun inside.
Kira protected Cagalli and brought her to the corner.
"When will it end...?" Kira was nervous. Cagalli was really an idiot.
"Until all the people on one side are killed?"
Andrei holds a gun on Kira and Cagalli, and Kira's heart races as he tries to find a way to escape.
"I advise you not to act rashly. Even if you are a Basak (Berserker), you can't escape unscathed after making such a scene, because everyone here is an Adjuster."
Although Kira was not turned evil by Frey's sacrifice of her body, Lin Chu's death and Frey's complaints also aroused his strong sense of active fighting. Baku was really cruel when he killed Tiger's men, so Tiger said Kira was a berserker.
"You, you are..." This was the first time Cagalli learned that Kira was an Adjuster.
"I've seen two of your battles, the ground pressure in the desert, and the thermal convection parameter modification. I can see that you are a leader even among the adjusters. It's impossible for me to believe that you are a natural person, especially with your unarmed close combat skills just now.
I don’t know why you want to be an enemy of your compatriots, but now we are enemies, right? If we are enemies, we just need to destroy them, right? "
Kira's heart nearly jumped into his throat, Tiger's grim expression looked as if he would shoot at any second.
"Tsk, it seems like we really have to fight until one side is completely killed." Tiger said this cruel truth in a teasing tone, but he put away the gun in his hand.
"But today you are my savior, and this is not a battlefield." Tiger pressed the phone.
Then Aisha walked in from outside.
"Go back. I had a great time chatting with you today. See you on the battlefield."
Cagalli's simple questioning exposed her and Kira's identities, but the Desert Tiger finally let Kira go.
Then Kira and Cagalli were sent back in confusion. Tiger didn't want the war to end with the extinction of one side. He just wanted more people to survive.
After Lin Chu discussed with Tian Jianshe, he finally boarded the caravan prepared for him by East Asia. The ZAFT army usually wouldn't make things difficult for East Asian civilian caravans. After all, sometimes there were private transactions, unless they got intelligence that you were involved in military activities. Tian Jianshe mobilized an entire caravan to cover up Lin Chu's heresy, which showed that he attached great importance to it.
The caravan had five ships, ostensibly carrying grain grown in East Asia to be sold in North Africa. But in fact, in one of the inconspicuous ships, there was an M1 Heretic lying, and Lin Chu was disguised as a boatman.
Lin Chu told Tian Jianshe that he wanted to stop by Orb Dawn to take a look at the M1 Heretic's production line and their other technologies. Tian Jianshe agreed, so the caravan will first go to Orb Dawn and then head to North Africa.
The main reason why Lin Chu wanted to go to Orb was actually to get a few more M1 Heretics. He didn't know before that this machine was so difficult to manufacture. If he had known that the combat time of this machine was so short due to the system's talent, he would have asked the Aurora Society to bring more. Now there is no other way. Instead of waiting for Orb to send them over, he might as well go there and get a few on his own. Director Simmons will surely not refuse his free ride on these mass-produced machines.
Alas, because of the neutron jammer, all long-distance communications on Earth are blocked. It is really troublesome. Unfortunately, I don’t have much time left, and I don’t know if I can catch up with the next mission of the Archangel by going to Orb first and then to North Africa. After repairing the heretic, each repair can only increase the durability of the machine by 14%. Lin Chu also knows that he must choose the talent of machine maintenance as soon as possible, or find some advanced machines. He must hurry up. If he misses the final battle between the Archangel and the Desert Tiger, he will suffer a great loss.
Orb was already in sight. The caravan continued to accelerate and finally arrived at Orb. With the help of the East Asian Republic, Lin Chu came to the Dawn Society.
Simmons was very surprised to see Lin Chu, wondering why he was following him.
"Major Lin Tiankuo, Representative Asha and the Sahak family have already agreed. The Sahak family is especially satisfied with what you gave us. But you don't have to rush over here, right?"
"I don't want to either. I just came here to ask you for a few more M1 Heretic machines. Your machines are too difficult to manufacture. We need more machines if we need actual combat data."
Lin Chu can now easily come up with words to deceive people, after all, it is impossible for him to say to Simmons: I am a student, give it to me.
Simmons was very generous. Since Lin Chu asked for four machines, he gave him four more and helped Lin Chu transport them to the Linhai warehouse secretly. Lin Chu went to the Linhai warehouse alone and put all four Heretics into his backpack. The previous one was also put into the body space. In this way, the exclusive space for advanced bodies was full. Now he alone was a heretic team. Lin Chu felt that he was terribly strong now. He was a god leading four tigers, and his battle record was traceable.
"Do you have a backpack for the heretic to fly in the atmosphere?" Lin Chu was not satisfied with the things he got, and asked Simmons about the Shrike backpack of the M1 Heretic.
"How many spies do you have in East Asia? You have figured out everything about us." Simmons looked at Lin Chu speechlessly. If the two parties were not cooperating sweetly, they would definitely fall out.
Simmons couldn't resist Lin Chu's shamelessness, so he gave Lin Chu three Shrike backpacks that were in the experimental stage. Lin Chu used the same operation to let Simmons put them in the unmanned warehouse, and then he put them into the component backpack in the exclusive space of the body.
When the satisfied Lin Chu was about to say goodbye and leave overnight, Simmons stopped Lin Chu.
"Major Lin Tiankuo, wait a moment. There is a treasure I want to show you." After Simmons said that, he took Lin Chu and walked deeper into the Dawn Society.
What? Wait a minute, Director Simmons, I'm not that kind of person!
