The shining Shoko Toyokawa

The girl with long black hair is not like her, a carefree person.

This kind of thing can be understood by looking into her eyes.

Unhappy people are all unhappy in their own way, but happy people are all similar.

"If I don't come, I always feel too cunning,"

Subaru rubbed his head and said with a wry smile, "But now, I'm starting to get scared."

"Like an idiot,"

Xiaozhi covered her forehead helplessly, but was she really not afraid at all?

The answer is of course no...

"Hey, what's wrong? Niina, are you jealous because Captain Maya and Miss Triangle are together?"

When this was mentioned, no one on the shuttle felt sleepy anymore.

"Are you stupid?"

Xiaozhi pretended to be uninterested and turned his head away, but if Lupa, who knew her well, was here, she would know that she actually cared very much.

Even after the shuttle started to take off, no one received her response.

But soon, they no longer had the time to care about this.

Densely packed shuttles and cargo ships took off from the moon and headed for the fleet in orbit, as if building a bridge between the moon and the fleet.

The Agama was retracting its gravity living quarters, and all mobile suits that could be deployed were deployed to the nearby space areas for alert.

The sense of urgency that a storm is coming weighs on everyone's heart.

Chapter 48: Maya is not a goddess, the two ends of the universe

On the Argama, when the meeting of captains and officers was over,

When Rencai went to look for Maya, a female officer with long wavy hair dyed wine red, charming features and a voluptuous figure came out of the temporary meeting room.

"Good job,"

She smiled at the girl and waved enthusiastically before floating away.

'That is? '

The girl felt that she was different from other people.

"That's Captain Jeanne," Momoka, who was pushed out by Maya, explained, "They've just joined us now to cover the Argama's departure from the construction dock."

"She is the captain of the Argama. Miss Natasha is in temporary command."

"By the way," Taoxiang lowered her voice, "She is also one of Captain Maya's suitors~~~"

"If possible, I hope you won't say this in front of me..."

Maya was speechless. If Taoxiang hadn't been injured, she really wanted to give her a knife.

"Lieutenant Momoka, aren't you going to the moon to recuperate?"

Jinna looked at Momoka who was fixed on the magnetic wheelchair with some concern.

"It's okay, I just have a concussion. I'll be fine in a few days. Now is the time when Wu Ci needs to fight. I can't run away!"

“Hahaha… No!”

Maya stretched out her hand and scratched the soft flesh on her waist, which instantly ruined someone's coolness. It shouldn't have been itchy because of the thick driving suit, but Taoxiang seemed to be very sensitive.

"Nina, I'm going to take this idiot back to his room. We can talk later."

The girl came to see Maya, she really had something to do.

What about the plan for the next battle? Are we going to let her stay in the safe zone again this time?

And...what does she think of Miss Triangle, etc...

"Captain Maya is really popular with women~~"

A hand climbed up Renna's shoulder from behind her. "Is this the second one? Or maybe the third one?"

The girl slapped the hand away and said sternly, "Please stop talking nonsense, Captain Maya is not a shrew!"

"Eh?"

Subaru feigned surprise, forming a frame with his hands, like a camera lens, and then enclosing Maya and Momoka. He closed one eye, examined them for a moment, and said, "I think they are both jewels."

"You're mistaken!"

"You've had some time to wander around. Are you familiar with the aircraft? Have you met the requirements for the simulated ejection and landing?"

In front of Ang, Jinai actually has a bit of the aura of a "senior".

"Of course we have reached an agreement," Subaru knew that she was trying to change the subject, but she was a gentle and considerate person, so she did not continue the topic.

"I'm actually not weak. I could at least be in the top 20 in the competition. I was just unlucky and ran into you guys, so I was eliminated early!"

Rencai felt as if she heard the barking of a defeated dog.

"By the way, do you know a pink-haired girl named Amano?"

Subaru asked casually, "When I was captured by Caius, she helped me escape. She seems to know you."

"She must be saying something bad about me..."

Jincai wanted to say that she didn't know such a guy, but her mouth moved faster than her brain.

"...If you're talking about the girl we saw at the school gate a few days ago, then I do know her."

"She seems to have joined Caius now. If you encounter her on the battlefield, please do not show mercy just because she helped you before, or you might die."

After saying that, Rencai floated away on her own.

"You're running away..."

Subaru always felt that the relationship between these two people seemed not that simple, so she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Former friends, now enemies..."

"Nina, your situation is really similar to Xia Ya's..."

…………

……

"Hina, what's wrong?"

"I'm fine, Major Isabella," Hina quickly withdrew her gaze from the window and looked at the female officer opposite.

She has long platinum hair like a waterfall, and looks quiet and gentle, like a lady or a lady from a noble family.

Even wearing Caius's black-based driving suit, he did not feel oppressive, but rather very friendly.

"This is your first real combat experience, so it's inevitable that you'll be a little nervous,"

Hina smiled awkwardly, of course she couldn't tell her boss that she was thinking about some idiot who had been deceived by the rebels.

"By the way, Major, you and that pilot, Xia Ya, have the same last name, right? Is the last name Isabella very common in England?"

"It's quite common," Isabella saw that Hina was trying to change the subject, but she didn't mean to ask for the truth.

"Not only do we have the same last name, but I'm also her cousin."

"Eh?!"

Hina really didn't expect that she would hear such shocking news just by changing the subject.

"Even when she was little, she was braver than anyone else. To her, wrong is wrong and right is right."

"Even when the most august priests claim that the world was created by 'God,' she would stand up and refute it; the universe has existed for more than 100 billion years, and it was not created by God more than 6000 years ago."

Thinking of the interesting things in his childhood, the major couldn't help but have a more elegant smile on his face.

"The priest always said that a traitor like her would have been burned to death 200 years ago..."

The smile disappeared from the major's face. As a result, the priest was right...

"Like an idiot..."

In fact, Hina kind of hates Xia. It is because of her bad example that the idiot has ended up in this situation today and was tricked into joining a dangerous organization.

If we can't even maintain the stability of the Earth Federation, how can we make this world a better place?

Hina's father,

Countless fathers, mothers, daughters, and sons lost their lives in the Unification War.

The existence of the Federation must be protected from the reactionaries! Only then can their souls in heaven be comforted——

Many elite pilots who joined Caius thought so.

Although some of Caius' actions are controversial, rulers since ancient times have needed to use violence, right?

"Major, do you think what Xia and Chihaya Aine did was correct?"

Hina hesitated for a moment, but still asked this somewhat offensive question.

Although these two pilots pushed the course of history forward, and perhaps it was because of them that the Federation came into existence,

The current government must give high praise to this former dynasty's traitor.

But now that the so-called "Shaya" is holding high the banner of anti-federation, it is somewhat politically incorrect to talk about them.

Hina also asked after confirming that no one around could hear.

"It's hard to say what they did was right,"

Just as Hina thought, what the major said was very politically correct.

"Especially Chihaya. She dragged many civilians into this and caused a devastating economic turmoil and depression in the world."

"But even if it wasn't right, there really was no other way,"

"If it were me, I would probably do the same as them."

Major Isabella finished speaking and calmly took a sip from the straw.

But Yang Cai was not at peace after hearing this.

What Caius is doing now is probably not the right thing.

But there's nothing we can do about it, right?!

The pink-haired girl drank the bagged drink in one gulp.

'Fool, don't let me meet you, or I won't show mercy!'

The once close friends are now floating at opposite ends of the universe.

Chapter 49: Sleeping together, two people taming each other

"This time, Captain, are you still going to be at the forefront?"

Now there is only Taoxiang as a patient in the medical room, which seems deserted.

Maya paused while peeling the apple. "The gap in combat power between us and Caius is too great. And I promised everyone I would be the first to rush in."

"Captain, you're always like this. Today, you disagreed with breaking out. Although the other captains didn't say anything, they must have had some opinions in their hearts."

"Although Colonel Natasha will communicate with them, your personal attitude is also very important. Remember to communicate well with them."

"Captain, you can no longer simply be a mobile suit pilot..."

"I'm sorry to have worried you, Momoka..."

Maya did not explain that the reason for not breaking out of the siege was because Wu Ci was now nominally a federal army.

But the nature is more like volunteers, and it is not feasible to enforce military orders on such an organization.

Putting aside the veterans of the Unified Army who joined from various channels, many volunteers came here solely out of passion. Asking them to obey orders and not fear life and death is obviously a bit unreasonable.

Once such troops are dispersed, it will be difficult to regroup, let alone fight.

The tactic of having soldiers line up and be shot to the beat of military music was popular for so long.

It's not that everyone's brains are wattage, but it was limited by the weapons and communication technology at the time, and the relatively low organization of the army.

When they were lined up for execution, everyone gathered together, at least they could know where the soldiers were and give orders.

But if they were allowed to fight separately, they might all run away in a few days and be defeated before the battle even started.
