Chapter 136: Beargguy
Lacus came home from work on time and met Ade's eager eyes as soon as she entered the door. She nodded to Ade and said while changing her shoes, "The news is true, there is indeed a Gundam named Banshee active in TITANS recently."
"So that email from that woman who called herself Emma Sheen is true. There is a real possibility that Stella is alive." Ade clenched his fist excitedly, "Then it's worth taking a chance to try."
"It's better to inform Mayu and the others first. They have just set out not long ago." C.C. suggested, "Shouldn't her brother know about this news first?"
"No, we can't tell Shinn." Ade decisively refused, "In case we failed to rescue Stella, won't it make him suffer again? I advocate following Emma's words, going to see her and saving Stella first."
"I'm against it!" Ange protested loudly, "She said that you must go to that city personally, where you can't drive your MS. Even with my intelligence, I can easily see that this is a trap, right? Stella must have told them our information."
"Some things are useless to know. With my position, as long as I'm not caught in flagrante delicto, I can just deny anything they say. Besides, Stella knows so little. Scirocco won't know too much from her." Ade replied stubbornly, "He's kept it a secret, it means that he doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. We can take advantage of his mindset."
"I'm against it, too." C.C. said indifferently, "You can't risk your life for such a thing, and although it's sorry to say this to Shinn, your life is much more precious than Stella's."
Lacus hesitated for a moment before saying, "… I also object."
"Objection is not valid, my mind is made up. I have the responsibility to get her back." Ade opened his Geass to show them his AT field, "Whose combat ability is stronger than me on the moon? NT radar plus AT field, even a sniper rifle can't shoot me. Don't worry too much."
"Your objection is invalid!" Ange smashed her fist on Ade's AT field, however, Ade's body did not even move a bit, "It's just a turtle shell, right? How can it be counted as a combat ability? Momoka, watch the gate at night, so he can't slip away."
"I'm begging you, don't get caught again, okay? There are already enough people in this house." C.C. stroked Mineva's little head, "Your Uncle Ade wants to go do something dangerous again and then get caught and bring back a new sister, can you keep an eye on him with your NT sense so he won't be able to sneak away again?"
"Leave it to me!" Mineva happily raised her little hand, "I'm NT, no matter where Uncle Ade runs, I will be able to know it!"
Ade looked around and found he had no helper. He sighed helplessly, and suddenly, Mineva's voice rang out in his consciousness, "Uncle Ade, don't be afraid, I'm not like those bad women, I'm on Uncle Ade's side."
"I'll sleep with Uncle Ade at night and will always watch him!" Mineva was talking to Ade in his consciousness while her mouth kept saying, "So don't worry!"
C.C. was still touching Mineva's head. The little girl was very upset but could only hold back her displeasure to fake a look of enjoyment. Girls don't like people touching their heads, and it won't be different just because she's a child.
"Uncle Ade touches my head because he is Uncle Ade and I like it." Mineva thought angrily, "How dare you bad women also touch my head? Hmph, I didn't give my consent."
Mineva understood what they were talking about. Uncle Ade was going to get Sister Stella back, but the several aunts in the family were against it. Sister Stella is very good to Mineva and doesn't like Uncle Ade, so Mineva likes her very much. As for Uncle Ade, Mineva wasn't worried at all because he came back every time without any problems.
"I'm too small, otherwise, I could have gone along with Uncle Ade." Mineva blinked her big eyes covertly at Ade and counted secretly, "When I'm sixteen… well… aunts will be almost thirty! "
The person she hates most in this family is Aunt C.C. because Aunt C.C. had hurt Uncle Ade and she wouldn't become old. Secondly, she hates Aunt Lacus, whose fake smile had become more annoying recently. She likes Sister Ange, who is very good to her and Uncle Ade. As for Momoka, she had seen too many maids, and maids don't count as people in her eyes.
At night, Mineva ran to Ade's room with a pillow in her arms, lay down on the bed and closed her eyes, "I fell asleep and I didn't know what Uncle Ade was doing."
"They are still awake, I will act when everyone is asleep." Ade also lay down beside Mineva, and the little girl skillfully arched into his arms, "Mineva, you are already a big girl. There is a difference between men and women, and you can't do that after you are ten years old."
"I'm not ten years old yet!" Mineva pouted with dissatisfaction and chose to change the subject, "Uncle Ade, I'll tell you a secret. When Aunt Lacus said that she didn't want you to go, she was lying. I can see that."
"Your Sister Lacus." He flicked the little girl's forehead, "I have no idea what she's thinking right now, and I can't let her know what I'm thinking, but it's definitely not her fault anyway. If only she were NT too, how nice it would be."
"Well, it's nice to be like us." Mineva rubbed happily in his arms, "It's a pity that I'm the only NT in the family."
The next day, four women sat around the table, staring at each other, while the maid lady was still standing on the side. Everyone was discussing a very serious problem — why is Ade missing?
"I'm sorry, I slept too deep." Mineva bowed her head in shame, "Uncle Ade probably sneaked away in the middle of the night."
"Momoka?" Ange knocked impatiently on the table.
"I accidentally fell asleep!" The maid bowed a standard ninety-degree, "I'm sorry, Your Highness Angelise!"
Mineva's NT instinct told her that Momoka was lying, but she wasn't going to tell Sister Ange. She raised her head to look at the expressionless Lacus and the grim-faced C.C., and lowered her head again, laughing secretly.
"Well, the case is solved! The truth is that he snuck off on his own last night!" Ange said and stood up excitedly, "I'll go and get him back, that's it, case closed!"
"To be honest, you guys have no concept of the AT field. This time, there's actually really no danger to him. He's very guilty of Shinn right now, and as long as he doesn't get Stella back, he won't be at peace for a day." C.C. thought out of her mind, "He used to hide at home every day cowardly, and now with his AT field, he has started to wander around the world."
"I'll see if I can think of something." Lacus took the initiative to say, "There is a major shareholder of Anaheim who has invited Loran to visit tomorrow. I'll talk to Loran and see if I can get through to him."
"Who?" C.C. asked alertly, "The timing is too suspicious, isn't it?"
"Alejandro Corner, the one who used to be the Federation foreign minister, now he has inherited the family business and become Senator." Lacus remembered that C.C. was also a shareholder of Anaheim, and explained patiently, "Corner's family and TITANS have never had any business, so it shouldn't be a trap. And the Corner family won't risk having a war with the moon for Scirocco's sake."
C.C. thought for a moment, "That makes sense, too."
"Does it really make sense?" Lacus thought silently, but her face not showing it in the slightest, "An important person who happens to have nothing to do with TITANS inviting Loran to leave, while transferring Ade. It's obviously a trap, right?"
But she didn't say anything about it, and she even hoped it was a trap. The relationship at home was too suffocating, and Lacus couldn't wait for some sudden event to break the deadlock.
"It's so exhausting, really exhausting. If this continues, I'm going to break down. Is this what he wants?" She thought to herself, "Then it's better to die."
"So, should we bring him back or not?" Ange looked at the other two in confusion, "Is he that powerful now? Doesn't even need someone to protect him anymore?"
"He has grown up…" C.C. sighed leisurely, "Yeah, he doesn't need protection anymore, he's not the same person he used to be. There's nothing to worry about. In any case, there's still Alice, right?"
"Oh, he doesn't need my protection anymore…" Ange also sighed, "If so, I'm… slightly lonely."
Lacus looked at them with a complicated expression, turned around and went back to her room to pack her things, then went out to find Loran.
Loran was really kind-hearted, and after listening to Lacus's explanation, he decisively expressed his willingness to help her, and hoped that Lacus would go along with him. This proposal was just what Lacus wanted, and even saved her the effort of convincing Loran, so she agreed to it without thinking about it.
She struggled for a long time. In the end, she left a detailed travel plan for the rest of the family, and followed Loran the next day.
"This way, there are fewer people in the family all of a sudden." The maid lady was cooking dinner, and Ange was watching TV with C.C., pretending that they have a good relationship, "I hope he doesn't bring someone back again."
"I heard you want him dead if he cheats on you again?" C.C. raised an eyebrow at Ange, "Really?"
"Just kidding." Ange looked away sheepishly and added in a whisper, "At most, I'll die together with him…"
C.C. grunted.
"So, there's really no need to bring him back?" Ange wrinkled her eyebrows, "But no matter what you say, C.C., I'm still worried."
"Even if it's really a trap, he has the invincible AT field anyway. Besides, Lacus and Loran left the moon together, that was too coincidental. But the other side won't be so reasonless to do anything to Loran, right?" C.C. asked, "If they're really that crazy, isn't it better to kidnap Mineva together?"
"Then isn't Mineva in danger?!" Ange got up at once and headed for the door, "She shouldn't go to school until Scirocco dies. I'll go and pick her up."
"I was just joking…" C.C. looked at Ange speechlessly, "How did she make Ade fall in love with her with this IQ?"
At this time, Mineva had just finished school and was walking alone on her way home. She was a big girl now and could go home alone. Beargguy was also following her, a bodyguard assigned to her by Ade — because of the privilege, she could bring Beargguy to school, and the teacher not only did not criticize her, but also praised her for her individuality.
"Then all the toys that the other kids brought were confiscated." Mineva muttered in a small voice, "These teachers are so snobbish, just like those maids at Aunt Haman's house."
While Mineva was rambling, several people dressed in black suddenly approached the young girl on the empty street and blocked her way. One of them squatted down and said to her in a very soft voice, "Is this little Audrey? Dr. Lingus was in a car accident on Earth and is badly injured, he asked us to take you to see him one last time."
"Oh, bad guys… do you guys have some misconceptions about the intelligence of children?" Mineva silently complained. In their dismayed gaze, she trotted behind the bear doll, squatting and holding her head, shouted in the loudest voice, "Help~ Help~!"
Although there were not many pedestrians on the street, there were already passers-by who began to take out their cell phones, as if to call the police. The men in black looked at each other and intended to make direct arrests.
"Brother, what is this?" One of them suddenly pointed at the bear doll and asked out loud.
Beargguy's eyes turned red, and its smallmouth spat out an oval-shaped object, which touched the ground with a soft sound, emitting a violent glare and blinding the men in black's eyes. Then the bear raised both hands, revealing the Gatling cannons hidden inside. Through the heat-sensing automatic targeting system in its head, it aimed at the black men.
"Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da …"
After a burst of gunfire, the men in black fell in a pool of blood with holes all over their bodies. Beargguy's shooting was accurate, none of the innocent passersby was injured.
Mineva gave the corpses a disgusted look, calmly stroked the bear doll's head, took out her cell phone, and started calling, "Hey, Sister Ange, I'm at…"
