Chapter 190: The Fog of Kilimanjaro
The average altitude of Mount Kilimanjaro is 1,200 meters, and the main peak is more than 5,800 meters tall, with snow at the top all year round. The reason why the Earth Federation set up a military base here is not known, but it is interesting to note that Brigadier Hymem chose the headquarters here on a whim when TITANS was founded, and it was then used by Commander Bright Noa of A-Laws until now.
Compared to other military bases on Earth, Kilimanjaro has always been relatively quiet due to its unique location, but today was a departure from the norm. The aisles of the base are filled with well-dressed men and women coming and going, and a couple is leaning against the wall and whispering.
"Today is mainly to bring you to get familiar with everyone, when the meeting starts, we only need to sit quietly in the back row. Now, with brother, sister-in-law and dad are on our side, as long as our relationship is publicized, we make it an established fact, so mom will not say anything." Louise glared discontentedly at the youth beside her, "Saji, are you listening to me?"
"Ugh? No!" Saji concentrated on flipping through his phone with a despairing look on his face, completely not hearing what his girlfriend was saying, "How can I live on without you?!"
"What are you looking at?" Louise jerked the phone away from Saji's hand and flipped up the chat log, "'Annihilator Carrot has withdrawn from this group', the group name… 'Lingus Protection Association'? Saji, what is this thing?"
"Whoa whoa whoa, nothing nothing!" Saji panicked and stretched out his right hand to get his phone back, looked at Louise, and warily hung his hand in the air, "It's, it's… a group of MS fans! Yes, a fan group of Dr. Lingus!"
"Fan group? Then why are you panicking like that?" Louise gave him a suspicious look and turned her eyes back to his phone, "Huh, there was just a person with the ID of 'Shinji' asking what to do with the resources every month in the future, Saji, what resources are sent every month?"
"Resources, resources, resources … resources is, is Anaheim's latest MSs' intelligence resources, this 'Annihilator Carrot' has a way to get internal information, we Dr. Lingus fans all join this group for his monthly resources, now he suddenly withdrew from the group, we're all anxious!" Saji gasped for air after saying a whole bunch of words in one breath, "That's it!"
"Forget it, I don't want to be a manipulative woman even before I get married, I'll reluctantly leave this matter alone for now." Louise held out her hand with the end of the phone, "Here you go, if you look at this kind of thing the next time, remember to ah—"
Louise only saw a lanky figure rushing over, and then felt hit by a huge force to the side. The phone slipped off and fell to the ground with a crunch. Saji quickly hugged Louise into his arms, angry at the guy who hit Louise.
"The Federation is having an internal meeting, what are children doing here for? Standing in the middle of the corridor and chatting? What a performance." The chubby man muttered a curse and strutted away, not even looking at the two.
"Louise, are you okay?" Saji looked at the girl in his arms, "Did you hurt anywhere?"
"No, no, nothing!" Louise blushed and broke away from his arms, leaned down to pick up the dropped phone, and handed it to Saji, "That was the eldest son of the Vist family just now, right? I remember that he is quite an amiable person, why did he suddenly get so angry?"
"Because his right of succession was disinherited, and had to continue to represent the Vist family to the meeting, so he is so angry." Wang Liu Mei quietly appeared and smiled at them.
"The Vist family is just changing heirs, why are you laughing so happily?" Louise looked at Wang Liu Mei inexplicably, "You are also here to join the Criticism Meeting of Lingus? Oh yes, you are a regular Senator."
"But it should be your brother to attend this meeting, why are you here? Oh, I see, are you here to travel with your young lover? Or did you come to declare a relationship? Someone in the family is against your relationship with this kid?" Wang Liu Mei's eyes crossed over Louise's stunned face, "How about this, I'll help you, and you tell me which side does the Halevy family stand with. You know my credibility."
Louise quickly looked around. She came up to Wang Liu Mei's ear and muttered in a whisper, "Neutral, leaning toward the moon when forced to."
"Deal. You can wait for my good news in peace." Wang Liu Mei's smile intensified, "Since we are working so well, do you want to hear complimentary news?"
"Sure." Louise nodded, "You're in a good mood? Is it okay to talk to me so much today?"
"In a sense, I'm developing allies, and every word I say to you is valuable." Wang Liu Mei readily replied, "The world is changing, and a group of old but stubborn people is blocking the way. They will definitely be ended up in the dust. The Halevy family at least stand on the right side, you and your little lover can still live happily for many years."
"The Wang family supports the moon?" Louise lowered her voice in amazement, "Or is it your own opinion, Wang Liu Mei supports Lingus? The same as Britannia's Queen Nunnally?"
"How can we be the same? The Queen is having extremely twisted love for someone." Wang Liu Mei disdainfully skimmed her mouth, "I just want to find a booty call, but someone wants to bring every woman who has sex with him to his 'family'. Tsk, is his family a place normal people can stay? I don't want to run into trouble."
"There are such things? So, so impactful!" Louise's face flushed, "I heard that Lacus will also attend today's meeting on behalf of the moon? Then when she met Queen Nunnally, will they …"
"Lingus is not coming, how would the queen come? She must take off again today." Wang Liu Mei rightfully said, "Lacus is the old Clyne's daughter, the main wife of the Lingus family. These old guys in the council still think there is an opportunity to bully someone's wife, humph, how is it possible?"
"But setting the meeting here itself is already in the irony of Dr. Lingus, right? It was suggested by Commander Bright, it seems that A-Laws and the moon have a rift." Louise said worriedly, "I've been quite worried that our family is on the wrong side."
"The council is full of a bunch of losers who only know how to play the power game." Wang Liu Mei pointed a finger at the sky and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "A moon-sized satellite is going to fly to the Earth-Moon orbit, and this group of fools thinks that they can get Lingus down by political struggle? What do you think they have in their heads?"
Louise immediately woke up from Wang Liu Mei's words, "Why do you say so much to me? Don't you afraid that the Wang family will become the target of everyone?"
"I stand on the moon side, there is nothing to be afraid of. Besides, I don't think that they will have the opportunity to attack me." Wang Liu Mei mysteriously smiled, "I suggest you immediately call now and ask Mr. Halevy and Mrs. Halevy. Do they really believe that Dr. Lingus, who has subdued a satellite, will guess the location the angel will attack wrong?"
…
"So Ade figure out the location on his own?" In the VIP lounge, Ange's mouth opened wide in surprise, "My man is too good for that."
Lacus looked up and down at the handsome young girl, who was dressed in a male costume as a bodyguard, and decided to not bother with her about the wording, "Ade did have guessed that it was here before … he got the Laplace program, to be precise, he substituted himself into Dr. E.A. Ray's role and designed the Laplace program himself."
Ange couldn't understand what she was talking about, but she kept nodding her head.
"Let's put it to you this way, the box was hidden so that it wouldn't be found, but the program was obviously left to be found, which creates a contradiction, so what did Dr. Ray really expect?" Lacus looked at Ange's confused face and answered herself, "He was hoping that the box would be found by a specific person at the right time."
"But the box can't be found by angels, so it's made into a program that only humans can decipher. I get it." Ange said, "Then the ideal situation is to take out this program after angels have been all wiped out. But he's been dead for so long, how can he guarantee that angels are all dead when the descendants take out this program?"
"There is no guarantee." Lacus smiled sweetly, "Then the answer is simple: let them die before humans use the program."
"Oh oh oh!" Ange shouted out, "So the coordinates are military bases. His goal is to lure the angels into the striking range of the army and kill them! As long as the number of coordinates is more than the number of angels, it can be guaranteed that all angels have been killed before the last coordinate is revealed!"
"Then why is the first coordinate Dakar? Dakar, as the political center of the Federation, is not necessarily heavily guarded all year round." Lacus asked, "And how did Dr. Ray lure angels out? You know, it's been nearly a hundred years."
"The reason why the first coordinate was at the Federation headquarters… it was probably to raise the Federation's attention to angels by sacrificing the capital officials, or even the Prime Minister. As for the method… well …" Ange tossed her beautiful blonde hair, "I don't know. I ran out of intelligence."
"All of today's locating devices follow the quantum coordinate system that Dr. Ray designed back then, he used a back door to simulate the quantum fluctuations that angels were looking for, as a way to direct the nearby angel to the desired location." Lacus smiled, "You're a very smart girl, why do you usually play dumb in front of Ade?"
"You're obviously very dark-hearted, why do you always behave like an innocent woman in front of Ade? C.C. obviously cares a lot about Ade, why does she always look indifferent in front of Ade?" Ange rolled her eyes up, "What's your business?"
Lacus was speechless for a moment.
"You took the initiative to come to Kilimanjaro for this meeting, took the initiative to name me as your bodyguard, and took the initiative to explain to me how the Laplace program works." Ange looked down at her watch, "It's still early, tell me, what do you want to beg me to do?"
Lacus froze for a long time and popped out, "Did you figure it out or did you just rely on your intuition?"
"You want to know if I've figured it out myself or if it's just a hunch?" Ange was dumbfounded, "I'm glad you're not getting upset anymore, but you don't have to care about me to this extent, right? I'll tell you in advance, I'm against all the lesbian drama between the protagonist's women in web novels, I only have Ade in my heart!"
"You read web novels?" Lacus suddenly had the urge to ask her if she had read "Char's Secret History", but didn't ask in the end, "Actually, there is an important thing about Ade. C.C. is too easy to go to extremes, not suitable for discussion, so I can only choose you."
"How are you qualified to say C.C.? I think you are almost as extreme as she is. No, in a sense, more extreme than her." Ange muttered, "Go ahead, what do you want to discuss? I'm not C.C., is it Mineva or Alice? It can't be Loran, can it?"
"Why do you mention Loran here? And Mineva, you also find—" Lacus suddenly stopped, she found that as soon as she talked to Ange, the topic would be carried off, so she settled down and started from the beginning, "Let me ask you, what determines a person in your opinion? In other words, Ade's body is already like this, how can you be sure that he is Ade and not some other creature?"
"He's an NT, his soul didn't change, it can be found at a glance." Ange read the next question from Lacus's expression, "Non-NT… no, no, even the soul is the same, it might be not the same person. It's possible that the same soul has two different life experiences and becomes two different people. "
"You are …" Lacus pondered for a moment, "… denying that Ade and Yang are one person?"
"Ha, is it necessary for you to be so clever? Why don't you just let Ade use his brains?" Ange sheepishly tried to change the subject, "Anyway, I think, a person is determined by his life experience and the personality that he finally got, not something as nebulous as the soul."
"That is memories." Ange nodded under Lacus's gaze, "So the next question, is Alice still Alice after she got all the memories of ELS? Ade said that it was Alice who took over ELS, how is he going to prove that it wasn't ELS who took over Alice?"
Ange was frozen on the spot, like being hit by thunder.
