Chapter 104: Plans Can't Catch Up With Changes
Loran looked at his watch when he came out of TurnA's warehouse, it was almost time for dinner, and if he didn't go back, Diana was going to be angry. He hesitated and decided to take a look at the control center as the last stop of today's routine inspection.
The control center with the huge computer was just one of many rooms, in addition to many other rooms with different purposes, and the building also had a huge antenna transmitter on top, almost like a complete base. Dr. Lingus said to Loran during his hospitalization that he already knew what this place was for, but the explanation was hard to believe, saying that he would wait for the key person to arrive and then interview him.
He drove to his destination, entered the building at a fast pace, and skillfully crossed left and right to the huge room with a sci-fi atmosphere. The huge screen in the room still displayed the inexplicable phrase, "Current MSs online: 0."
Loran looked around the room, found nothing unusual, and turned around to leave, when a deafening voice suddenly came from behind him. It was a female voice, accompanied by some kind of dynamic BGM, speaking loudly in a language he couldn't understand, "The biggest potato server on the moon is online! Sexy Gundam, online shooting, accompany you …"
Loran turned around quickly and walked over to the giant screen, only to see that the sentence above had changed to, "Current MSs online: 1."
Almost at the same time, his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, it was Diana, and then he pressed the call button to his ear as fast as he could, explaining offhandedly, "I'll be right back in ten minutes."
"We'll talk about that tonight." Diana said slowly, "I'm afraid the guest Dr. Lingus was talking about has arrived and Ghingham is handling it. I'll have Harry pick you up and you can go straight to the scene."
Loran hung up the phone and wiped a non-existent cold sweat from his face while contacting Ghingham for details. When he arrived at the scene, escorted by Harry, he saw a huge battleship resting on the outskirts of the Capital Circle, which was surrounded by three layers of Anaheim-produced top-of-the-line Jegans.
"Your Highness Loran, no anti-aircraft facilities have detected the presence of this battleship, it is as if it appeared here out of nowhere." Ghingham came up to him and reported, "The other side has no intention to attack, but also refuses to make any negotiation with us."
"Refusing to negotiate? That's not right, at least he should have asked to see Dr. Lingus." Loran thought about it and suddenly remembered what someone had told him, "Right, they are using the same public channel with us!"
He took out his phone and found the band Ade had written down at the time and showed it to Ghingham. Ghingham tried it, and the other side was indeed on this channel.
"Hello, please let us meet with Dr. Lingus, when he comes, everything can be explained clearly." The speaker seemed to be a young girl, polite and clear, "We will never make an attack, and please do not fire."
"I am the leader of this force, Loran Cehack." Loran responded, "I will contact Dr. Lingus immediately, he will be here in a moment. May I ask if you are in charge of this battleship?"
"No, my name is Salamandinay. Our top chief is called Chang Wufei, he …" the girl seemed a bit hesitant, "he said he wanted to see what the moon was like here and left first."
At this time, Kamille just bumped into someone and fell to the ground.
"Boy." The old man he hit said in a deep voice, "Do you not apologize for hitting an old man?"
Kamille was ready to apologize honestly, but he didn't like this old man's attitude, and he also thought that he was the one who fell to the ground, so he retorted, "You were hit by me, and I fell to the ground, even, right? Nothing to apologize for."
"The society is so developed, but children do not even understand the virtue of respecting the old." The old man looked up at the brightly lit skyscrapers around him, and then looked down at Kamille, "Boy, name?"
"It's only etiquette to give your own name first before you ask someone's name, right?" Kamille braced himself on the ground and stood up, patting the dust on his butt. "And what is your name?"
"Chang Wufei."
"Chang Wufei? What a strange name." Kamille commented, "My name is Kamille Bidan."
"Kamille?" Chang Wufei asked, "Isn't that a girl's name? How come it's a boy?"
Hearing this, Kamille was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, blowing up at once. His mouth shouted "you bastard", swinging his fist towards Chang Wufei's face.
Chang Wufei side dodged the punch expressionlessly, grabbed Kamille's arm, while the toe lightly kicked in Kamille's calf. Kamille lost his balance in an instant and flew forward involuntarily, landing face down on the ground with a muffled "poof."
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today, you disrespectful old man!"
Kamille got up quickly, not even bothering to pat off the dust on his body, and swung his arm and threw a straight punch. There was no doubt that he flew out again. But he was not discouraged, he got up and continued to swing, and then continued to fly out, and so on and so forth. The crowd of onlookers is growing, many people have taken out their cell phones to film or video, and there are even people doing live streams.
"Boy, very brave, but unfortunately was led off the path." Chang Wufei appreciated, "You lack people like Dr. Yang to teach you. I ask you, what is your justice?"
"I don't know any Dr. Yang, and I don't know what justice is or isn't, but I won't allow you to insult Mr. Quattro." Kamille wiped the blood on his chin and moved his somewhat sore body to prepare to go on again.
The surrounding crowd of onlookers suddenly dispersed, and a group of police quickly surrounded the two men, the leader of which was very polite to Chang Wufei, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Chang Wufei?"
Chang Wufei nodded with his hands behind his back, whispered a few words to the police, and then got into a police car. Kamille was about to ask what was going on when he was suddenly handcuffed behind his back by police, and his head was placed in a black bag, and he was pushed and shoved into a police car.
"Be honest." The police officer who was holding him said viciously, "Assaulting a foreign guest in public is extremely serious in nature and has an extremely bad impact."
"What are you doing? I'm a civilian, a child!" He struggled in the police car, "Evil lapdogs of the government, just know how to flaunt and bully children like me, just the same as TITANS!"
The police around him kept chanting words like "civilized law enforcement," "performance assessment" and "public opinion monitoring," trying to restrain the urge to give him a blow. Just when the police were about to teach him a lesson even at the risk of being disciplined, Kamille's voice came to an abrupt end.
What suddenly appeared in Kamille's consciousness at this moment was a gentle, quiet, hopeful, all-embracing and beautiful will. More maternal glow than Lieutenant Emma, more youthful and beautiful than Fa Yuiry, just in the first instant of contact, Kamille felt healed.
"This is what the best of human hearts should look like!" He was suddenly enlightened, then his heart pounded, his pulse and blood pressure soared. He found himself in love at first sight without even meeting her.
Kamille gulped and cautiously tried to say hello to the other side, who also responded politely. If he wasn't being handcuffed right now, he would have jumped up and down with excitement. He tried to empathize with the other party again recklessly, but perhaps too recklessly, this time he was rejected.
Along the way, Kamille found himself getting closer and closer to the location of that NT, as if his destination was the location of the other party. Thinking about that, his heart couldn't help but beat fast. Half an hour later, he entered a huge meeting room and recognized the owner of that gentle consciousness right away.
It was a beautiful girl with long hair, ebullient, serene, and transcendent. The sudden happiness made him about to choke past. But in the next instant, he suddenly realized that there was a boy beside this girl, and she looked very close to him. Looking at that, Kamille's heart almost broke.
"Your Majesty Diana, Your Highness Loran, Mr. Chang, I am to blame for my poor education and for causing trouble to all of you." Char tugged Kamille to walk in front of everyone, pressed his head, and made him bow and apologize. Kamille bent down honestly as if he were a puppet on a string.
Ade looked at Kamille's dumb look and felt a little strange. He poked Kamille twice in the mind space, but the other party did not respond. Unfortunately, there was no time to pay attention to Kamille now, Loran, Char and Chang Wufei, as the representatives of the three forces, Ade was the only one who could link everyone together. His priority now is to explain clearly where Chang Wufei is coming from, so that the three parties can construct a relationship where they can trust each other.
The representatives of the four parties sit in four directions at the round table. Char was sitting next to Amuro; Diana and Loran were sitting side by side, and behind them stood Ghingham and Harry; behind Chang Wufei stood Salamandinay; Ade had a headache about the seating on his side, but Ange had stood behind him before he opened his mouth, and C.C. and Lacus sat to his left and right respectively.
Chang Wufei, Char and Loran looked at Ade meaningfully at the same time, and only Diana looked at Loran coldly and with an uncomfortable look on her face.
"According to the doctor's request, I rushed over as soon as I had everything arranged there, and I hope I'm not too late." Chang Wufei looked to Ade, Ade nodded, "There are no more worries over there, Garrod has been trained properly, and Nataku and I can die for you at any time."
"Grandpa, take it easy, there's no need for you to die for me, the most dangerous part of this operation will only be done by Amuro and me." Ade looked around the round table, "I'll start with a detailed plan for everyone."
The adults were having a meeting at this end of the room, and three children looked at each other at the other end of the room.
"You, hello, my name is Kamille Bidan." Kamille looked at Tiffa nervously and stammered, "Please, please, what is your name?"
"Her name is Tiffa." Garrod reflexively stopped in front of Tiffa and looked at him warily, "What do you want?"
"Please, may I ask what is the relationship between you two?" Kamille asked tremulously, "Are you friends?"
Kamille's good sense couldn't be more obvious, but Tiffa hadn't been in this situation before and didn't know what to do with it. She thought for a moment and pulled Ade, who she felt had the most experience, into the mind space chat room.
"Tiffa?!" Ade continued to speak, restraining the urge to turn his head away. This was the first time Tiffa had reached out to him, so he couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Ade-san, I would like to ask you a question." Tiffa asked politely, "May I ask how to kindly refuse a kindness that is not needed?"
Ade, combined with Kamille's previous performance, immediately understood the situation. He responded in his heart, "Just tell the person 'you're a good person'."
Tiffa nodded slightly in understanding, took Garrod's hand and smiled gently at him. This small gesture made Garrod blush and made Kamille's heart ache.
Tiffa walked up to Garrod, looked at Kamille, and said softly, "You're a good person."
Kamille was so pale and thunderstruck that he wandered off to the side, disoriented, and heard nothing more of what the girl said. Kamille Bidan's little first love was over before it began, but no one had the energy to care about that in the face of the fate of two worlds, in the face of the course of history.
Above the round table, Ade had finished recounting his plans. Loran and Chang Wufei asked some questions from time to time, and he and Char did the answering. Loran had even optimistically thought of inviting the survivors of the other Earth to immigrate to the Moon after everyone's victory. Chang Wufei, a standard pragmatist, was interested in the proposal and said he would like to talk about it in detail afterward.
Just as everyone was discussing the details, Ade suddenly went quiet, and at the same time behaved abnormally with Tiffa. The two said in unison, "There's someone at the door!"
As soon as the words were said, a knock sounded on the door.
Everyone in the room was alerted, and Ange reflexively shielded Ade behind her. Diana winked at Harry, who gingerly felt his way to the door, putting one hand on the handle, holding the gun in the other hand. He gestured to everyone, then pulled the door open and pointed the gun between the eyebrows of the uninvited guest outside the door.
"Long time no see, Yang." The Embryo outside the door nodded to Ade in greeting, "Won't you invite me in?"
