Crossing the void, starting from the colonial satellite that collapsed in the war, the Archangel, which fled all the way to Earth, finally fell from the dark and deep space into the vast ocean shrouded in the blue sky.
No matter who it was, when they saw the beautiful scenery of the sea and sky, they would subconsciously exclaim.
This was not only for the spectacular scenery in front of them, but also for the fact that they had finally escaped from the war.
As the salty sea breeze blew, Lacus stood on the deck and stared at the blue sea for a long time.
And standing next to her was Ray Mingkai, who was thinking about everything that might happen.
Now, the Archangel did not land on Earth at the cost of the Eighth Fleet's destruction. Instead, it completed the landing in advance. At the same time, the Eighth Fleet, which should have been destroyed, did not seem to have encountered the misfortune of being destroyed.
Instead, after a few hours of confrontation with the Zaft fleet led by Kreutzer, the Kreutzer fleet took the initiative to retreat as the end of this confrontation.
Therefore, the communication from the Eighth Fleet made Margaret and others feel greatly relieved, and they could not help but feel happy about the mission that was about to be completed.
Whether it was the military personnel of the Archangel such as Margaret, or the citizens who finally felt relieved, Ray Mingkai did not feel a trace of joy.
There was only one reason.
That was Lacus and his own identity.
Also, he had once piloted a strong attack on Gao Da and achieved a shocking result.
Ray Mingkai was confident that Lacus' identity would not be exposed, but the latter was very difficult.
Although Ray Mingkai was not very clear about the internal situation of the Alaska headquarters, he clearly remembered the terrifying truth hidden deep underground.
According to the timeline, even if the Archangel did not have the fate of forcibly landing on Earth and mistakenly entering the Sahara Desert, it would not be able to escape being abandoned by the Atlantic Alliance. It would be left in the Alaska headquarters as bait to attract Zaft's main force.
At that time, if he could not escape from this vortex in time, Ray Mingkai would inevitably become one of the abandoned pawns.
"Troublesome."
Ray Mingkai's mutterings could be heard in the sea breeze.
When Lacus turned around and looked at Ray Mingkai, she saw a hint of frustration in the depths of Ray Mingkai's eyes.
"Kai, are you worried about our identities?"
The intelligent Lux naturally understood Ray Mingkai's worries.
Speaking of which, even she herself could not believe it.
She did not even need to think about it. As Lacus Klein, not only did she board the newest space battleship of the Earth Union, she was also about to set foot on the headquarters of the Earth Union in Alaska.
In the past, she would have thought that such an experience was absurd.
"No. Although he was a little worried, the power of the pendant gave him peace of mind. It's just that this is my problem. "
Ray Mingkai shook his head and looked at the empty deck.
"Is it that airframe? Gao Da? "
Under Ray Mingkai's reminder, Lux immediately thought of the person who had attacked Gao Da.
"Yes. I'm afraid we have to put in some effort to leave Alaska. "
Ray Mingkai said, looked into Lux's eyes, and said seriously and affirmatively:
"Don't worry! We will reach Scandinavia in a short time. "
"Mhmm. I know. "
The development of the situation was just as Lei Mingkai had predicted.
When the Archangel sailed into the outer waters of the Alaska headquarters, a fleet composed of many frigates, destroyers, and aircraft carriers greeted them on the spot.
Moreover, it was an overbearing and merciless attitude.
In the sky, fighter jets with missiles hanging under the airframe flew over the Archangel. Except for the aircraft carrier, the other frigates seemed to be swarming, but in fact, they surrounded the Archangel in a certain formation. They took the Archangel to the Alaska headquarters in a threatening manner.
"What the hell is going on? They are escorting criminals!! "
When Bakilulu saw this situation, she attacked on the spot, but she was stopped by an Atlantic Federation general.
"I'm really sorry! This is routine work! Please cooperate! After the Archangel enters the port, the assisting fleet will naturally disband on the spot! Please don't worry! "
In the face of a situation where the statement and practice were completely inconsistent, even if Bakilulu was angry in her heart, she could only accept it in the end.
When Maureen and Mu next to her looked at each other, they already knew each other's worries.
The Alaska headquarters suddenly made such an outrageous behavior, it was probably not for the Archangel, but for the airframe and the pilot who piloted it.
"Hualalala …"
The iron door was closed by the expressionless Earth Alliance soldiers.
Ray Mingkai sat quietly in the narrow single room and watched the soldiers leave.
"Humans are really shameless! You even risked your life to bring back the airframe and the warship. Is this how the humans in this world treat heroes? Whether it is here or the colonial satellites above, Kai, you are the one being persecuted! "
In the dimly lit single room, a dreamy white figure quietly appeared.
Its appearance caused Lei Mingkai to be pleasantly surprised.
"State Zero, you, are you okay?"
"I'm not okay. I just recovered some strength. Tsk! That thing called MDE has really screwed me over. "
Ray Mingkai glanced at the White Cat State Zero, who was constantly complaining about how hard it struggled under the explosion of MDE and how to ensure Ray Mingkai's safety to survive, then looked at the corridor outside.
The soldiers who had just locked Ray Mingkai in here seemed to have left.
So, Ray Mingkai lowered his gaze and looked at the White Cat State Zero.
"Oh, can't you take into account the feelings of the patient? It was not easy for me to recover a little strength. "
The White Cat State Zero looked at Ray Mingkai with tears in its eyes, but Ray Mingkai was unmoved.
"Tsk! Kai, just you wait! "
Looking at the ruthless Lei Mingkai, State White Cat Zero gritted his teeth and left a sentence, then slipped out of the narrow single room.
According to Ray Mingkai's idea, the White Cat State Zero would go ahead and check if there was a way for Ray Mingkai and Lacus to leave the heavily guarded Earth Alliance Headquarters.
It had to be said that the White Cat State Zero's recovery was undoubtedly timely for Ray Mingkai.
Otherwise, Ray Mingkai would have to use the modified OS program that was suitable for a natural person to pilot the MS in exchange for his and Lacus' freedom.
"It's just that I don't know how Lacus is doing?"
The moment the Archangel docked, a group of fierce-looking soldiers led by an indifferent officer quickly took control of the key departments of the Archangel. At the same time, they demanded that the two people who had piloted the Gao Da, Ray Mingkai and Kira Yamato, be immediately handed over.
In the end, under Marlou's struggle, Ray Mingkai, who took the initiative to step forward, and Kira Yamato, who was forcibly controlled, were taken away, while Lacus was left on the Archangel.
"Captain, is there any news from the Admiral?"
After taking away Ray Mingkai and Kira Yamato, the Alaska Headquarters did not ask anything except to let the Archangel be on standby and receive orders to resupply.
Even if Marlou kept asking, she only got a reply that it was inconvenient to reply because it was under research.
"No. There is no other news from the headquarters. Of course. The only good news is that the citizens on the Archangel can disembark. "
Marlou pretended to cheer.
But Mu, who was standing on the side, was a little worried.
Mu had a hunch that Ray Mingkai and Kira Yamato would be taken away, but he couldn't stop it.
"Then, how is the princess? If the Knight comes back and finds that something has happened to the princess he is guarding, the consequences will be very serious. "
Bucky Lulu shook her head.
"Fortunately! Except for the Warrant Officer being taken away, she was a little depressed, but there is nothing unusual now. "
"Is that so? Then I'm relieved! Now, I have some things to take care of. "
After that, Mu left the bridge without any explanation, ignoring the stunned expressions of Marlou and Bucky Lulu.
Mu had no other purpose for doing this.
However, he didn't want to wait any longer. He wanted to find out where Ray Mingkai and Kira Yamato were taken to.
But Mu didn't notice that when he stepped out of the Archangel and argued with the soldiers guarding nearby, a white shadow flashed and disappeared into the Archangel.
Without the usual noise of the citizens, the internal passage of the Archangel became quiet again.
Except for the original crew of the Archangel, the Alaska headquarters didn't seem to have any intention of replenishing the personnel of the Archangel. Therefore, after the White Cat State Zero discovered this situation, it simply revealed its true body and wandered slowly in the Archangel, looking for Lacus Klein.
"Waiting for you in such a quiet night …"
"En? Singing? "
Strolling in the empty passage, the White Cat State Zero's ears twitched as if it heard some movement.
It raised its small head, looked around the rooms on both sides of the passage, then took a step and ran in the direction of the sound.
In the brightly lit room, the black-haired girl was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the pink Harrow in her hands. She gently played the song that she was familiar with and engraved in the depths of her memory.
She was the person the White Cat State Zero was looking for, Lacus Klein.
As the song sounded, the pink Harrow in Lacus' hand shook slowly, as if it was swaying its round body according to the rhythm of the song.
"Even if it's out of reach now … we can definitely …"
Suddenly, the eyes of the pink Harrow in Lux's hand lit up. Before the girl could react, it jumped down from Lux's hand and skipped towards the automatic door.
"Harrow?! Harrow! Why are you … "
"Swish!"
The automatic door opened in Lacus's surprised voice.
Standing outside the door was not a human. Instead, it was a cat that was snow-white from head to toe and had golden eyes.
"Friend! Harrow! Friend! Harrow! "
"Pa!"
Upon seeing the White Cat, the pink Harrow went up enthusiastically, but was mercilessly slapped onto the bed by the White Cat. The pink Harrow spun on the blanket and made meaningless sounds.
"Harrow?!"
Lacus exclaimed and hurriedly held the pink Harrow who was spinning on the blanket in the palm of her hand, afraid that the pink Harrow would be broken.
The next moment, the sound of the automatic door closing attracted Lacus' attention.
"You … You are?"
The White Cat took a step and jumped onto the table lightly, looking at Lacus at the same level.
The strange thing was that Lacus could see the meaning in the White Cat's golden eyes.
"I …"
Lacus hesitated for a moment, then nodded silently.
Then, the White Cat stretched out its paw and drew a set of numbers on the table.
“0210？ In the wee hours of the morning?? "
The intelligent Lacus pondered for a moment and guessed the meaning of the set of numbers given by the White Cat.
However, the White Cat in front of her was too agile, as if the one standing in front of Lacus was a human and not a White Cat.
The White Cat did not care about Lacus's doubts. After conveying its meaning, the White Cat jumped onto the ground and prepared to leave.
"Wait! You, you were called by Mingkai? "
Hearing that, the White Cat turned around and looked at Lacus, nodding its little head slowly.
Lux's eyes widened visibly.
At this moment, she was both surprised and touched.
However, no matter how touched Lacus was, the White Cat still left the room and quickly returned to where Ray Mingkai was.
There was not much time left.
According to the White Cat's observation and spying, the closest window for Ray Mingkai and Lacus to escape from the Alaska headquarters was between 2: 00 and 3: 00 in the morning.
Once they missed this window, they would have to wait for a few days for the next window.
But then again, the White Cat, who was shuttling in the shadows, suddenly felt that it was crazy.
It had just walked out of the situation where it was heavily damaged by MDE, but it immediately threw itself into an attempt to escape from the tightly guarded Earth Alliance Army headquarters.
"It's really crazy! Mingkai, this guy, really found me a good thing! "
State White Cat Zero glanced sideways at the armored vehicle driving over from the other side of the road, then it turned its head and disappeared into the side, leading to the exhaust vent of the underground facility where Lei Mingkai was.
The dark night fell.
Except for the necessary personnel on duty, almost all the other personnel returned to their rooms to rest and prepare for tomorrow's training and preparation.
However, in this increasingly silent night, a figure quietly appeared from one of the exhaust vents and quietly moved toward the port where the Archangel was located under the lead of a white cat.
