"Since you're already involved in the war, then as a part of the war, Lieutenant Sei Itō, you have the right to consider its validity," Lacus immediately said.
"But so what? The war is still a war. It won't change because of my will. Besides, Lacus, don't you think you're thinking too much? What identity, position, and power do you have to consider this question? What power do you have to convey what you think to others? If you just rely on empty words, you won't be able to change anything, "Sei Itō glanced at Lacus and said calmly.
"I don't think so." Lacus' expression didn't change at all in response to Sei Itō's question. She got up, took the teapot from the table, and filled Marchio and Sei Itō 'teacups with tea. After she sat down again, she said, "No matter what identity I have, first of all, I'm a mediator. I'm one of the affected members of the war. Secondly, I have family members who are troubled by the war, and friends who are hurt by the war. So no matter the reason, why wouldn't I consider its validity when I'm so close to the war?"
"Alright, perhaps you're right. But just thinking about it won't help the war at all," Sei Itō said with a shrug.
"But if you don't think about it, you won't find the answer, and you won't find the solution to the problem, right?" Lacus continued.
"Indeed, as you said, there won't be an answer without thinking, and there won't be an outcome without an answer. But don't forget, only those in power can get an answer from thinking and turn it into an outcome. And now, the person sitting in the position that can turn the answer into an outcome is one of the main culprits that started the war. What do you plan to do? " Sei Itō retorted harshly. Then, he looked at Lacus with interest and waited for her answer.
"…" Lacus fell silent. After a while, she looked up at Sei Itō and asked, "Is there no other choice?"
"Well, who knows?" Sei Itō replied perfunctorily. Then, he turned to look at the backyard of Klein's mansion and changed the topic, "Well, let's not talk about such a heavy topic. With such a beautiful time and scenery, it's really inappropriate to talk about such a heavy topic. "
"But. How long will this time and scenery last? "Lacus also turned to look at the scenery in the backyard and said indifferently.
"Do you know an idiom in the language of China, the predecessor of the East Asia Alliance?" Sei Itō picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip. Then, without waiting for Lacus to answer, he continued, "It's called carpe diem. Therefore, instead of worrying about how long the scenery in front of him would last, it was better to cherish it while it was still there. That's what we should do. "
"Carpe diem, huh?" Lux repeated in a mumble.
"Lacus, I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest first," Marchio said to Lacus as he gently placed the teacup in his hand on the table.
"Okay, teacher. I'll get someone to send you to rest," Lacus quickly said upon hearing Marchio's words. Then, she bent down and picked up a blue Harrow from beside her leg. She smiled and said, "Harrow, go inform Doris and ask her to come over."
"Okay, Harrow. Okay, Harrow." The blue Harrow's little electronic eyes blinked continuously. Then, it flapped its ears. It flew out of Lux's palm and hopped into the room. Not long after, he led a beautiful young woman in a white apron who looked to be around 27 or 28 years old to their side.
"Doris, Harrow, Doris." Harrow jumped back onto Lacus' leg and called out.
"Doris. Please send teacher to the guest room to rest, "Lacus said softly to the young woman standing at the side.
"Okay, Miss Lacus." The woman nodded. She walked to Marchio's side and extended her hand to support Marchio who stood up from his seat as she led him out. Then, she said, "Mr. Marchio, please come this way."
"Sorry to trouble you," Marchio said calmly.
Soon, Marchio and the woman disappeared before Sei Itō and Lacus' eyes.
After Marchio had completely left, Sei Itō turned to Lacus and said, "Okay, now that there's no one else here, Lacus. Do you remember what I said to you when Kira sent you off the Archangel?"
"Wasn't that an illusion?" Lacus looked at Sei Itō innocently and asked.
"What do you think?" Sei Itō looked at Lacus with a half-smile and asked in return.
"Can you tell me how you did that?" Lacus tilted her head curiously and asked.
"It's a small technique to use Spirit. You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Sei Itō gave a perfunctory explanation, then frowned and continued to ask, "Didn't you prepare for it?"
"Although I thought it was an illusion, I still prepared the information so that I wouldn't be punished." Lacus stuck out her tongue cutely and said. She then stood up and said, "Wait here for a moment. I'll get the information for you."
She then turned around and left the table. She walked into the room and quickly disappeared from Sei Itō's sight. A few minutes later, she came back with a thick kraft paper bag that was twice the size of a quarto.
"Here's what you wanted." Lacus walked to the table and placed the kraft paper bag on the table. Then, she pushed it in front of Sei Itō.
"Thanks." Sei Itō thanked her and reached for the kraft paper bag on the table. He opened the seal and took out the thick stack of white papers and started browsing.
"You really know how to find loopholes in my language." Sei Itō put the information back into the kraft paper bag and threw it on the table. Then, he looked up at Lacus and said meaningfully. The reason why he said this was mainly because the information Lacus gave to Sei Itō was all about plant's civilian technology. They were all basic, public, or semi-public information. There was no secret or military information at all.
But even so, Sei Itō was still quite satisfied with the harvest this time. After all, plant had twelve areas and a total of 120 colonial satellites. If Sei Itō really went to each satellite to steal information and technical personnel, not only would it be troublesome to execute, but it would also take a lot of time. Now, all he had to do was talk and he received a bunch of information that could fill in the gaps in the Rubik's cube world. It was a great harvest.
"This isn't a loophole in my language. After all, I'm just a singer with some influence. It took me a lot of effort to collect this information for you. "Lacus complained.
"Okay, you pass. You pass. After all, the conditions I offered at that time were too lenient. "Ito Mori said faintly with a noncommittal look, then he put his hands on the table. He stood up from his seat and grabbed the kraft paper bag on the table again. "I'm a bit tired. Please arrange a room for me to rest."
"Okay." Lacus also stood up and said. Then, she walked to Sei Itō's side. She personally led the way. After a while, she brought Sei Itō to the second floor of her house and stopped in front of a room.
"It's here." Lacus opened the door in front of her and said.
"Thank you." Sei Itō roughly looked at the layout of the room and felt that it was not bad. He nodded at Lacus and thanked her. Then, he walked into the room. He nodded at Lux again and reached out to close the door.
Then, Sei Itō locked the door and walked to the sofa in the room to sit down. He poured the documents in the kraft paper bag on the low glass table in front of him and quickly browsed through them one by one. Of course, Ito Sei didn't just look at the information itself, but also the names of the people mentioned in the information. He memorized these names one by one in his mind.
About an hour and a half later. Sei Itō roughly flipped through all the documents in his hands. At the same time, he also memorized the names of more than twenty people that appeared in the documents. Then, Sei Itō put the documents back into the kraft paper bag and stored it in the Rubik's Cube world. Then, he got up and went to the bedroom. He waved his hand to summon a quantum computer. Then, he logged into plant's network through the network port in the room. He searched through the names one by one.
Not long after, Sei Itō found the identities of these people on the network. The project they were in charge of, which satellite they were on, and the location of their laboratories.
"I'll leave Lacus' house tomorrow and plunder them." Sei Itō closed the quantum computer in front of him and thought to himself.
After making up his mind, Sei Itō put away the quantum computer in front of him, turned around, and walked to the bedroom to rest. Just like that, the night passed peacefully until dawn.
"Lacus, since Kira has received proper treatment, I'm relieved. So, I'm planning to leave plant and return to Earth today," Sei Itō said to Lacus during breakfast.
"Aren't you going to wait for Kira to wake up and leave together?" Lacus asked in confusion.
"No, after all, I'm a soldier of the Earth United Army. We're enemies now. If I stay here for too long, I can't guarantee that there won't be any problems," Sei Itō said.
"Okay then, I'll get someone to send you to the space port later," Lacus nodded and said.
"Okay, sorry to trouble you, Lacus," Sei Itō thanked her.
"You're welcome," Lacus said with a smile. "I just hope that Sei Itō, after you return to Earth, you can think carefully about why we're fighting and who our enemies are."
"Okay," Sei Itō agreed with a sigh.
Then, the two finished their breakfast in silence. Then, Sei Itō, who had nothing to pack, got into the black car under Lacus's gaze and sped toward the space port.
A moment later, Sei Itō, who had arrived at the space port, sat in the shuttle that was prepared beforehand and quickly flew out of the space port toward Earth.
"It's about time." Sei Itō, who felt that the distance was about right, got up from his seat, found the space suit he used during the accident at the back of the cabin, and changed into it. Then, he quickly floated toward the pilot's seat of the shuttle.
As the door of the pilot's seat opened, one of the pilots looked at Sei Itō suspiciously and asked, "What's the matter?"
Just as the pilot looked over, Sei Itō's mental power exploded and instantly controlled the two pilots. After leaving the hypnotic command, he immediately retracted his mental power and walked toward the back of the shuttle.
"Open the emergency exit and let me out," Sei Itō said as he reached the back of the shuttle and pressed the communicator on the wall beside him.
"Yes," the pilot immediately replied. Then, the wall beside Sei Itō suddenly had a line that looked like a door appear. Then, a rectangular metal door slowly opened downwards, and a relative airflow was generated between space and the sealed space at the back of the shuttle. Then, Sei Itō, who was wearing a space suit, instantly jumped out of the shuttle and floated in space.
"This feeling of being alone in space is really strange." Ito Sei, who was watching the shuttle go away, was suspended in the void, looking at the dark space around him, and whispered to himself. Then, his body flashed and suddenly disappeared from space. When he reappeared, he was already in the cockpit of the blue Gundam. Velletta was driving the blue Gundam at high speed toward the direction of Plant.
After a while, Velletta, who was piloting the Gundam, said to Sei Itō, "We're going to enter their radar range if we keep going forward. What should we do?"
"Try to reduce the thrust as much as possible and glide over." Sei Itō frowned.
"Okay." Velletta responded and immediately overclocked the engine. Then, she instantly reduced the power of the thrusters to the minimum and used the inertia from the overclocked acceleration to bring the Gundam closer to the Plant satellite.
After a while, the heresy Gundam arrived at the solar energy collection panel on the exterior of the Plant satellite and carefully moved toward the central axis of the colonial satellite.
"We're here." When they arrived at the central axis of the colonial satellite, Velletta said.
"Let's go back first," Sei Itō immediately said. Then, the Gundam suddenly disappeared from space. But the next moment, Sei Itō, who was wearing a space suit, reappeared on the spot.
Sei Itō, who reappeared on the surface of the colonial satellite, quickly stepped in front of the protective array outside the central axis. He took out a Gantz gun and fired at the protective array in front of him.
