It was true that Diego was brave and fearless, and his temperament was quite kind. He had only made a good friend, Yizak, who was extremely impulsive and angry. His many times of protection and help to Yizak made people feel that Diego was somewhat unreasonable, but he was still a good person in essence. Otherwise, he wouldn't have surrendered after being defeated by the Archangel in the original plot. This was because Diego knew very well that everything was possible if he was alive, and there was really nothing left if he died.
And now, Diego's situation was like this. In fact, he didn't have any interest in or excitement for the beauty that Xiao Ran had mentioned. As a smart person, he firmly believed in Xiao Ran's shameless words. Since Xiao Ran could say that he would lock him up until he agreed, in Diego's opinion, since he could say that, then he would definitely be able to do it.
After all, other than Aube's people, no one, including the unconscious Aslan, knew that Diego and Negore were still alive. What they wanted to say was not up to Aube to decide.
Those who could participate in the rescue and recovery were definitely people that Aube could trust, especially when Xiao Ran was involved in the battle. It was impossible to send people with doubts to participate in such a confidential mission. Otherwise, it would not be a good thing for Aube to recover the news of Gundam, especially when Aube also had his own MS.
The reason why Diego agreed to Xiao Ran was that he had no choice. It wasn't that he didn't want to subdue Xiao Ran just now and force Xiao Ran to escape, but in fact, Xiao Ran wasn't wrong to say that Diego wasn't his opponent. However, Diego himself didn't think so. In Diego's opinion, it was impossible for a trained adjuster to be an ordinary person's opponent. He thought that giving up on subduing Xiao Ran was a favor.
Moreover, Diego, who had promised Xiao Ran, had another purpose. He was waiting for Aube to go to Aube and take Negore away when Aube relaxed his vigilance. Once he and Negore got on Gundam, the possibility of escaping was still quite high in Diego's opinion.
Xiao Ran, who had already closed the door and walked out of Diego's room, naturally knew what was going on. However, the side quest forced him to do so. After all, as long as he completed the quest, regardless of whether Diego really agreed or not, as long as the two of them stayed in Aube, Xiao Ran had a way to make Diego and Negore stand on his side in the end.
Xiao Ran, who walked out of Diego's room, went straight to Aslan's ward. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Kajali staring blankly at Aslan, who was still unconscious. From time to time, her expression would appear angry, sad, and at a loss.
Xiao Ran walked over to Kajali and patted her on the shoulder. Kajali turned her head in shock and looked at Xiao Ran in confusion before returning to her senses. "Are you done talking to the yellow-haired man?"
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded gently, looked at Aslan, and said, "It's over. What are you going to do with this man?"
Kajali's eyes were filled with sadness. "What else can we do? We're a neutral country. We can only return him to Zaft."
Xiao Ran asked, "Have you informed Zaft?"
Kajali shook her head. "Not yet. We'll have to wait until the recovery is complete."
Xiao Ran nodded and said, "Just in time, remember to hide the pilots of Thunderbolt and Storm Gundam and bring them back to Aube secretly. I'm useful. Just say that I only saved this person. Also, don't tell this person about the two pilots. You don't know anything, okay?"
Kajali looked at Xiao Ran in shock. "Why?"
"For Aube, the existence of those two people is indispensable." Xiao Ran patted Kajali on the shoulder and said softly, "Do as I say. After sending this person away, I'll tell you why. You can rest assured that even if we let those two people go, they won't leave."
Kajali looked at Xiao Ran and felt that she couldn't understand what Xiao Ran was thinking. Using the identity of a neutral country to imprison two pilots from another country, and secretly at that. If this was leaked out, it would be a huge diplomatic dispute. Kajali didn't dare to make such a decision.
Seeing the embarrassed expression on Kajali's face, Xiao Ran said, "I'll take responsibility for all the problems. I'll explain it to the representative of Ashar when I get back."
After talking for a long time, Kajali finally nodded her head, but the expression on her face was not very natural. Soon, under Xiao Ran's arrangement, Negor and Diego were sent directly to Aube and imprisoned by the Dawn Society. Along the way, there were only a few people who knew about the secret operations. Moreover, all of them were given a gag order not to discuss anything about the two pilots. It could be said that Aslan was kept in the dark.
Xiao Ran, who transported Negor and Diego, did not follow them. Instead, he waited outside Aslan's ward. He leaned on the railing in a daze and waited until there was a noise in the room behind him. Xiao Ran quickly turned around and stood by the door, listening to the conversation between the two, quarreling, crying, and regretful shouts. Every word they said was heard by Xiao Ran. Until Aslan said that his friend was killed because of Kira's obstruction, Xiao Ran decisively pushed open the door and walked in.
Xiao Ran pretended to be surprised. "You're awake? I heard the quarrel from afar. Do you know each other? "
Kajali turned her head away when she saw Xiao Ran. She snorted softly with tears in her eyes, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm afraid something happened. I came to take a look." Xiao Ran smiled slightly, looked at Aslan, and nodded gently to him to say hello. Aslan sighed and looked at Xiao Ran's mask strangely before nodding in response.
"Since you're awake, call the doctor over to check." Xiao Ran said as he pressed the call device in the room. He gave Kajali a look and shook his head gently. The latter snorted, "I know."
"You." Xiao Ran smiled helplessly at Kajali, and then said to Aslan, "I didn't expect you to be a friend of Princess Kajali. You should be hungry after sleeping for so long. I'll go out and get someone to prepare something. You two can have a good talk."
Xiao Ran, who got Kajali's promise again, did not want to come between the two. After he finished speaking, he turned and went out, asking someone to prepare some food for Aslan. When Xiao Ran returned to the door, the doctor who came to check Aslan just came out. Xiao Ran stood outside the door and listened to the movements in the room. He was afraid that Kajali would say something she should not say.
The room was silent for a long time. It was not until a long time later that the two slowly started to talk again. They talked about some things about Kira and did not mention anything else. Xiao Ran's anxious heart also relaxed.
In the evening, Zaft, who received the news at noon, sent a plane to pick up Aslan. Before Aslan left, Kajali hugged Aslan with tears in her eyes. She sobbed and told Aslan to be careful. She did not want to lose a friend.
Kajali's words made Aslan look at Kajali for a long time. It was not until Kajali's face turned red and she slapped his broken hand that he reacted. Aslan was in so much pain that he nodded and agreed. Then he boarded the small kayak and boarded the plane. The one who helped Aslan board the plane was Y'zak.
On the way back, Kajali, who had reorganized her emotions, appeared beside Xiao Ran. She and Xiao Ran held the railing together and looked at the endless blue sea. She said calmly, "Now can you tell me why those two people are locked up?"
"Because Aube may soon face a war. We need to strengthen our forces." Xiao Ran turned to look at Kajali and said slowly, "Not only the pilots of Thunderbolt and Storm Gundam, but also Kira and Archangel. We have to unite and use all our strength to protect Aube."
"Kira?" Kajali keenly noticed the two words "Kira" in Xiao Ran's words. She instantly grabbed Xiao Ran's collar and said excitedly, "You mean Kira, he's not dead? Where is he! "
"He's not dead, are you relieved?" Xiao Ran smiled at Kajali and gently removed Kajali's hand. "I sent him to a place. When he comes back, he will regain his power, enough to change the world."
"It's good that he's fine, it's good that he's fine." Kajali covered her mouth. She was so happy that she couldn't help it. After laughing and crying for a long time, Kajali finally reacted. She wiped her tears and looked at Xiao Ran. "You said that there will be a war in Aube. Why? Since you want to unite all your forces, why don't you lock up Aslan too?"
"Lock him up too?" Xiao Ran's mouth twitched. He rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "No one knows that the Storm and Thunderbolt pilots are still alive. Of course, locking them up is not a problem. However, Aslan's identity is special. If something happens, the entire Zaft will go crazy. Even if we don't lock him up, he knows that the Storm and Thunderbolt pilots are in Aube. You are in Aube and Kira is in Aube. If a war really breaks out, will he not care?"
"Really?" Kajali rubbed her eyes and smiled happily. "Yes, Aslan is a good person."
