The incident of the prince's assassination not only affected the internal affairs of the Empire, but also affected the diplomatic mission from across the world — the diplomatic mission led by Gudelia and Olga.
"Commander Olga, have you been able to contact His Royal Highness?"
Gudelia, who was sitting on the luxurious sofa, frowned deeply, looking particularly worried.
"No. Miss Gudelia. Whether it's the identity of the Ironflower Regiment or Abro's official identity, I haven't received permission to see His Royal Highness. "
Olga stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the Red Shoulder Lionheart Knight on the street in the center of the Empire, and couldn't help but sigh.
In his view, this was originally a very simple diplomatic mission.
How did it become like this overnight?
Every time he wanted to see the prince, Ray Mingkai, even if he used his identity as a diplomatic mission, he could only get the reply that His Royal Highness was currently not available to see guests.
"It's the same on my side. Even if I see the Empress, I can only get the same answer. "
Gudelia faintly sighed.
Without Ray Mingkai as a middleman, Abro's diplomatic mission seemed to have encountered difficulties in moving forward.
Affected by the Assassination Storm, the entire Imperial Capital fell into a tense state.
Even if the wise second prince named Schonetzel became the Prime Minister of the Empire again, he could only slightly suppress the impact of the assassination storm, far from being able to calm it down.
Even as an outsider, Olga could clearly see this point.
But for the diplomatic mission, the most important thing was to confirm Ray Mingkai's status as soon as possible.
But when Olga saw the Red Shoulder Lionheart Knight on the street, he couldn't help but sigh.
When can we see a turnaround in this predicament?
Fortunately, when Olga and Gudelia couldn't grasp the imminent turnaround, a message came and became an opportunity to save them.
The messenger from the City of Stars came.
— — —
In the colorful brilliance, the MACROSS named Fairy was moving forward with its head held high.
A few hours ago, after the MACROSS completed routine maintenance, it departed from the City of Stars and entered the space-time channel with the messenger to the Geass world.
In the bridge, He Nana, whose petite body was buried in a pile of children, yawned and opened her eyes to look around.
"Hmm? It's already set sail? "
Then, He Nana's head was gently knocked.
"You only know how to sleep! You don't even know you're setting sail! "
He Nana puffed her cheeks and muttered.
"Since there's an automatic navigation program, I don't need to monitor it all the time!"
"That's just sophistry! Nana. "
"You don't need to waste time and effort to keep an eye on it. Isn't that tiring yourself out?"
He Nana raised her little head and looked at her elder sister who was knocking her little head with a matter-of-fact look.
"Nonsense!"
He Meimei snorted and knocked on her sister's head again. She always relied on the excellent self-regulatory program to slack off. Then, she looked at the figure standing in front of the porthole.
Long pink hair gently draped over her shoulders, covering most of her round shoulders, making her appear faintly discernible. Under the long pink hair was a white sleeveless dress.
From afar, the figure was different from the strong figure in her memory. He Meimei scratched the back of her head helplessly at the frail figure.
Originally, the person who should be comforted by others should be herself.
He Meimei, who was faced with her best friend who came back from the dead but was unable to rescue her from the hands of the Destiny Council, was indeed depressed for a while. But before she could be comforted, she was surprised to find that the person who should be comforted was her teacher, Lux Klein.
There was no other reason.
It was a piece of news from the Geass world.
It was a piece of news that made Lux, who was dealing with the backlog of diplomatic affairs due to her disappearance, confused and made frequent mistakes.
Inspector Ray Mingkai was assassinated. Situation unknown!
When the news came, it did cause a small commotion. But in the end, it gradually calmed down under Lux's arrangements.
But as a bystander, He Meimei knew that her teacher, Lux Klein's heart was in a mess.
Even though her methods and speed in dealing with matters were no slower than before, He Meimei could tell that something was amiss from the strokes of Lacus' signature.
Therefore, after Lux finished dealing with all the affairs, He Meimei decisively pulled Lux out of the office with the excuse of returning for an inspection and set off for the Geass world.
"Sister. Do you think Teacher Lux is … "
"Don't talk nonsense!"
He Meimei patted her sister's little head.
"But … Isn't this what happens when a loved one is in an accident and his life or death is unknown?"
He Nana hugged the black and white furry Gungun doll and enjoyed the comfort of its fur while recalling the plots she had seen in those messy romance dramas.
"Stop watching those messy dramas!"
Unexpectedly, He Nana's little head was knocked by her sister once again.
He Nana raised her small hand and touched her head that didn't hurt much. She looked at her elder sister and muttered to herself.
"If Teacher Lacus is worried about the patrol officer, then sister, are you worried about your lesbian boyfriend?"
Of course, He Nana did not dare to say this out loud.
The consequences were obvious.
Even if Lux was magnanimous and did not make a fuss about it, her sister would definitely find fault with her and teach her a lesson.
After messing up He Nana's beautiful blonde hair, He Meimei stopped in satisfaction.
"How long until we reach the Geass world?"
He Nana pouted and shook her head casually. She used the nanomachines all over her body to tidy up her long hair that was messed up by He Meimei. Then, she summoned a light screen.
"We have passed through the space-time node. The ship will enter the Geass world in half an hour. However, the ship cannot land directly on the surface. We have to send an application to the Imperial Throne before we can land through the Imperial Throne's port and teleport to the capital of the Britannia Empire. "
He Nana's explanation of the next itinerary finally attracted the attention of the pink figure standing in front of the porthole.
"Nana. The Britannia Empire does not allow us to land directly on Earth? "
Lux shifted her gaze away from the colorful and ever-changing space-time channel and looked at He Nana.
He Nana nodded and moved the light screen in front of Lux.
"Teacher Lux. This is the information that the Britannia Empire informed the Agency in the name of Empress Euphemia not long ago. Due to the impact of the prince's attack, the information and communication channels inside and outside the empire are currently restricted. "
"So, we can only go through the Imperial Throne and land in the capital of the Britannia Empire?"
Unexpectedly, He Meimei smelled something fishy from this.
However, as her teacher, Lacus Klein, had already guessed the source of the abnormality before her.
Although the worry between Lux's eyebrows did not disappear, it dissipated a little compared to before the departure, and the brilliance in Lux's eyes became brighter.
Seeing this, He Meimei and Lux looked at each other subconsciously and couldn't help but think of their father's private complaints.
"How can ordinary people provoke the haters?"
"Teacher, did you think of something?"
Under her sister's urging gaze, He Nana asked timidly.
"Mhmm. I thought of something. "
Lux didn't hide her thoughts.
To her, He Meimei and Lux were not only her students, but more often than not, they were more like sisters.
Lux smiled, and her eyes flashed with the brilliance of wisdom.
"He … the news of the assassination shouldn't be fake. It's just that the result might not be what the outside world said. I'm afraid that the Empress sitting on the throne of the empire has other plans. "
"Plans?"
He Meimei and her sister looked at each other again, and then they suddenly understood and said, "Oh."
"Could it be?"
"Maybe! But we have to go there and see the situation. "
Based on the current information, Lux, who had roughly inferred the current situation of the Britannia Empire, gradually calmed down.
Lei Mingkai shouldn't have encountered any accidents.
Thinking about it, it makes sense.
Recalling the memory of when she and Ray Mingkai were in trouble together, Lux couldn't help but smile.
The MDE bomb that annihilated the entire fleet didn't kill him, and instead saved her along the way. The scene of them falling into the Iron and Blood World of Gao Da together made Lux couldn't help but feel that she was in a mess when she heard that Ray Mingkai was assassinated, and that she kept making mistakes.
But Lux didn't regret being so flustered.
"Meimei, Nana, thank you!"
Lux, who had figured out the ins and outs of everything, sighed and thanked He Meimei and Lux.
If it weren't for the sisters finding a reason to pull her out of the office, she might still be thinking about nonsense, and unable to take this crucial step due to her identity as the Universe's Diplomatic Ambassador.
"No, no, this is nothing worth thanking! Teacher. "
He Meimei waved her hands, indicating that she didn't do anything at all.
"No, this is already helping me! Meimei. Besides, your current state of mind isn't any calmer than mine, is it? "
After all, Lux was her student. When Lux's state of mind calmed down, she saw through He Meimei's chaotic state of mind.
The reason was most likely that Annen, who should have been resurrected from the dead, was replaced by Princess Nunnally of the Britannia Empire as the Crown Prince.
