The shining Shoko Toyokawa

嗏

Maybe it was too cold that night,

Or maybe,

It's really lonely to be alone.

The foreign girl who has always been polite to everyone but kept her distance,

On that day, I said something that was inconsistent with my own 'way of life' -

"The station is actually quite big, isn't it? It's so cold today, and I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"so…"

At that moment, the foreign girl felt panicked for some reason.

It was as if she really had bad intentions and was afraid of being exposed by the girl.

"So, there's no need for you to bother looking for a new place..."

Based on Lupa's 'survival experience', this is somewhat presumptuous and presumptuous in District 11.

After all, they even feel that asking, "Have you eaten?" is offensive and a matter of personal privacy.

It was a long time later that the foreign girl finally understood the reason for her panic at that time.

Maybe it's because of expectations.

Only with expectation will one anxiously await the other party's answer...

…………

2032XL4, flew by quickly, and in Lupa's field of vision, it shrank rapidly in the blink of an eye.

It was only at this moment that her body seemed to have just remembered the instinct to breathe. She was gasping for breath, and her heavy breathing echoed in the narrow cockpit.

Without time to think about anything else, Lupa checked the mapping and recording equipment on the mini-MS.

He controlled his mobile suit and came to his companion's mini mobile suit, which had lost most of its main frame in the explosion.

The small pieces of debris were blown away by the explosion.

In the pitch-black frame, there was a corpse with a broken helmet visor. The entire body seemed to have been bent 180 degrees from behind by a giant and hung on the frame.

With just one glance, his miserable appearance was fixed in Lupa's mind.

It’s easy to imagine what the situation is like under the space suit.

She endured the discomfort and operated the robotic arm that had not been hit by the micrometeorite, or at least had no impact holes, and gently clamped her partner's body.

Immediately, he turned his MS around and accelerated towards the small boat waiting nearby.

At least…

At least she can now give Xiaozhi some money so that he doesn't have to worry about it for the rest of his life -

Lupa comforted herself like this.

Of course she also needs money, but... probably she can't spend all this money.

After all, Ave Mujica is not a limited company...

…………

The return journey went smoothly. After submitting the data, Lupa was secretly given a few gold pieces.

Together, they were about the size of Lupa's fist.

Putting it in your pocket is not much more conspicuous than carrying a mobile phone.

But even with this little bit of gold, most people can't earn it in several lifetimes.

Just when Lupa was planning to find a way to send it back to Earth,

'Xia Ya' found her,

She was not here to confiscate the gold, but she wanted Lupa to go to Earth to carry out a mission.

But her next words dimmed it in an instant, making it lose its value, at least for Lupa, it lost its value...

"Lupa, do you know a girl named Ebizuka Satoshi?"

'Char' wears a mask of steel and never reveals her true face.

Hearing the leader mention Xiaozhi, Lupa instantly had a bad premonition.

Xia Ya wasn't one to keep things a secret. Seeing Lupa's bewildered expression, she whispered, "I'm sorry I'm telling you only now. She joined Thornless not long ago..."

This calm voice was like a thunderbolt from the blue to Lupa, making her head dazed.

The reason why she didn't need so much gold was that she was likely to die in battle.

But Xiaozhi is different. She should have lived a stable life in Tokyo.

But... why suddenly...

What happened?

"Xiaozhi... why?! Don't you hate sweet talk the most?"

Lupa still finds it hard to believe that Xiaozhi has joined a dangerous organization.

"I'm going,"

"I want to go to Earth this time!"

But she must get Xiaozhi away from the dangerous place!

Because that day, in the lonely and cold station, the little girl stayed.

At the beginning, their wallets were cleaner than their faces, and the money of two people combined was not enough to buy a single mobile game.

No place to stay,

No job,

It has come to this, what else can we do?

No matter what, it couldn't get any worse, could it?

The future will definitely get better, right?

Chapter 116: See you in Sydney (Transformation)

Sydney in May is immersed in the autumn atmosphere.

The trees along the asphalt road were dyed a fiery red by the late autumn. The red leaves fluttered down in the breeze.

This brought the blonde girl's thoughts back to London in November.

Although she is half British, she grew up in District 11.

When I went to study abroad in Dundun, I couldn't adapt for a long time.

At that time she had few friends and was always alone.

When she was young, she was already a bit immature, and she often comforted herself with the delusion that heroes are lonely.

Until...that girl came,

Her time in Dun Dun seemed to have just begun to flow...

"Lieutenant, why don't we just not go? Those guys in Caius won't take us seriously."

A car with the Earth Federation Military Police logo on it was driving at a speed much lower than the speed limit, crushing golden fallen leaves.

The blonde girl, now grown into an adult, withdrew her gaze from the car window and said calmly, "Someone has to go. If even we don't go, they might do something even more outrageous..."

"That's our job, Lieutenant."

"Is this kind of work really meaningful?" The young lieutenant driving the car was very confused. "Although Caius is theoretically under the jurisdiction of the military police, in reality, we have no right to punish them.

Even if we have evidence of their violations of discipline and law, the result of handing it over to Caius for internal handling is to protect them.

You know what those guys in Caius said?

They dared to say to our faces that we were wild dogs who had come to their place to cause trouble!

Because he was too young, the lieutenant was indignant about "this kind of thing".

The veterans have become accustomed to this and have passed this definitely not good job to the newcomers.

But the veterans were no match for Caius, let alone the newcomers.

After realizing that their "work" was meaningless, the newcomers gradually became "experts".

It's only a few thousand yuan a month, so why work so hard?

What's more, even if he fought Caius to the end, in the end he would not be able to punish the offender nor change the status quo.

Nothing could be more depressing than this...

Not everyone is Sisyphus, who can persist even after realizing that his "efforts" are meaningless.

Over the past six months, the blonde girl has seen too many people like this second lieutenant who doubted their lives and finally applied for transfer.

She also thought about leaving here.

For others, it might be difficult to leave, but for her, it was just a matter of words.

She didn't even need to use her family connections, she just needed to say a word to her boss.

It’s not that she has any hypnosis app, but she has a book called “My Governor Father”.

But let alone the Governor's father, even if she was the Governor himself, it would be difficult to change the current situation.

If someone else was the governor, the girl would definitely think that it was his inaction that led to Caius's rampant dominance in Australia.

But the Governor is her father...

Although there have been some conflicts and quarrels over the years,

But she knew her father well, what kind of person he was.

Since he couldn't change the situation, let alone herself.

But after realizing that she probably couldn't do anything, why didn't she leave?

Sure enough...it was because of those two...or three girls,

"You guys are just like idiots..."

"I'm also... an idiot..."

Ying Lili's meaningless work,

Another meaningless day has begun.

…………

"What's your name?"

As the waiter put down the coffee and left, Maya suddenly asked Jina this question.

It's not that she suffered from the amnesia plot that is common in melodramatic Korean dramas.

But this is also part of the 'test' for Rencai.

"My name is Toyokawa Saki, and I'm traveling to Australia,"

Rencai's face showed unhappiness, and she obviously didn't like the new name.

I don't like the hot girl look now.

If reality is a magical girl anime, then the current Nina is like a 'magical' girl after transformation.

Her originally black hair was dyed like My Little Pony, and the color on her head was as colorful as a rainbow.

Add to that the thick putty that looks like it was painted on the wall... Ugh, it's foundation and 'glamour makeup'.

Even if her real mother came, it would be hard to recognize Rencai now.

"If my dad knew I was dressed like this, he would definitely beat me up..."

Obviously, this outfit does not suit Rencai's aesthetic taste.

Coupled with the nail art that looks like she has practiced the Nine Yin White Bone Claw and added embellishments on it, the girl's resentment almost turned into reality.
