Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 258 [The Tail of the Serpent] Arrives

The door opened, and I was very happy to see Yang Hui came back with two serving plates. Lacus was indeed hungry, but she was a little unhappy because Yang Hui brought two servings!
Really, is he a girl with a big appetite in his eyes?
But when he saw the people behind Yang Hui, he immediately became interested again.

"Eat."

Yang Hui put a piece of food in front of Lacus, and ate another plate by himself.

This made Lacus blush and shy. It turned out that she had misunderstood Yang Hui and ate silently with her head down.

"Kira, this is Lacus, Lacus Klein."

"Hello, first time meeting, please take care of me, my name is Kira Yamato."

"Hello, Kira, just call me Lux."

Seeing Lacus put on the mask again, the corners of Yang Hui's mouth twitched. This is really an evildoer. Thousands of people have thousands of faces at their fingertips, and there is no barrier to state switching.

"Kira, are you an adjuster too?"

"Yes, it is."

"Then why did you board this ship? Isn't this the ship of the Earth Army?"

"Um... this..." Kira didn't really want to answer this question, so he looked at Yang Hui for help.

"I took him and his friends on board. In order to survive, I had to board this ship." Yang Hui said.

"Is that so...it's hard, isn't it?"

As soon as this remark came out, not only Kira was stunned, but even Yang Hui paused when he was eating, and put down the tableware.

"...Yeah." Kira nodded with difficulty.

"Fighting...is a sad thing."

"I also... don't want to fight, but..."

"Kira is really a gentle person." Lux comforted.

"Eh?"

"I obviously don't want to fight, but I still want to join the fight. Is there any reason for it?"

"……Um."

"Yang Hui?" Lax looked at Yang Hui with a smile. Although he had no responsibility or anger, Yang Hui could tell from Lax's smile that he was silently questioning and accusing.

"Living in this chaotic and turbulent world, who is not fighting? Aren't you the same?" Yang Hui turned his head to look at Lacus.

"..."

It was said that Lacus's mask was removed, and her mature temperament was restored, and a sad and sad atmosphere spread in the room.

"I don't like others to control my destiny, let alone when danger comes, I can only hide under the table and pray for others to save me. I want to control my own destiny, that's all."

After speaking, Yang Hui quickly ate up the food, and left with the plate, but before leaving the room, he still eased the heavy atmosphere.

"By the way, Kira is my good friend with Aslan in elementary school, and Lacus is also Aslan's fiancée. Speaking of it... the world is big, but it's really small, haha."

After Yang Hui left, Kira backed away from the astonishment, and suddenly turned to look at Lacus.

"Eh? Eh~!!!?"

"Ah, so Kira, you are also Aslan's friend? It's really destined." Lacus asked with a pure smile.

"You...I...your...fiancée? Aslan's!?"

"Yes."

"Eh...that's really..." Kira smiled wryly twice, agreeing with what Yang Hui said, the world is really big, but sometimes it's really pitifully small.

"Aslan...I saw him."

"Really? That must be a good meeting, right? Can you tell me about it?"

"...Well, it's just... not as friendly as you might think."

Then, Kira began to confide to Lacus about everything he encountered in [Heliopolis], why he joined the battle, and that he and Aslan... became enemies.

Maybe they are also adjusters, Kira also opened up the chatterbox, without the slightest doubt about Lacus, and told Lacus everything he experienced.

And Lux ​​just listened quietly, occasionally speaking to comfort Kira, but most of the time she just acted as a listener, understanding how this kind boy was forced to be involved in the vortex of war.

……

Yang Hui, who left the room, came directly to the bridge. He had already received one of the surprises from Maddock, and the second one was next.

"Yang Hui, you are here, how is she doing?" Maru asked Yang Hui.

"No problem, Kira is watching her."

"Kira..."

To be honest, Mariou is still worried about leaving Kira to guard Lacus. She knows that Kira is kind, and she is not a soldier. In case Lacus makes some excessive demands, Kira can't see the deep meaning in it. , is likely to bring them danger.

And... Lacus and Kira are both adjusters, what if... Lacus turns Kira against him?What about the Archangel?
"Don't worry, I said hello, Lux won't mess around."

"……That's good."

"By the way, Captain Ramias, have you received a communication request from the vicinity?" Yang Hui asked, he had notified [Giant Serpent's Tail] to wait for them nearby, so calculate the time at this time Should have been in touch.

"not yet……"

"Beep beep..."

"Captain, a communication request from an unknown signal has been received!"

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, Yang Hui just asked about [The Tail of the Giant Serpent], and the other party sent a communication request.

"Come here."

"Yes."

The screen lights up, and the girl on the screen has short brown hair, making it difficult to tell her gender.

"This is [The Tail of the Serpent]. May I ask if this is the boat that Mr. Yang Hui took?"

"Long time no see, Fenghua, why are you in charge of communication? What about Impeach? What about Elijah? Where about Reed and Loretta? Are all the adults on your ship dead?" Yang Hui teased.

"I'm the manager of [The Serpent's Tail], so I'm naturally responsible for the connection with the client. Please don't underestimate me." The girl turned into a puffy steamed bun and complained to Yang Hui.

Fenghua Yazhe, an intern team member of [Snake's Tail], is also the only daughter of another team member, Loretta Yazhe. Acting Cong Yunxiu in business negotiations, although he is young, he has insight and action beyond adults.

"Hey, hey! Master Yang Hui, we are listening!"

"If you want to speak ill of us behind your back, there's no way!"

With the sound of rough and hot voices, the brawny man with short blond hair and the brown-skinned woman with a single ponytail squeezed away Fenghua Yazhe and occupied the screen.

The brawny man is Reed Wheeler, a full member of [Snake's Tail], a former sergeant of the Earth Alliance. He was dismissed in the past because of his drunkenness and misfortune, but he still has a high reputation in the United Army because of his high reputation. Human connections, because of their excellent intelligence-gathering capabilities, have always been the intelligence core of [The Serpent's Tail].

The woman's name is Loretta Yazhe, the mother of Fenghua Yazhe, she is a single mother, a natural person who is good at fighting skills and blasting, she is a hot mom, she is mainly responsible for standing combat and undercover, and occasionally wears enhanced Armor supports combat and is good at taking care of people. He is very popular among mercenaries. Many people aspire to become Fenghua Yazhe's stepfather, but no one has succeeded for the time being.

"Hehe, so as an adult, can't you be a little self-conscious?" Yang Hui teased.

"Tch, you nasty brat, I wouldn't have accepted your commission if I had known earlier!"

"My daughter is still the cutest!"

"You... what are you doing? Mom, it's on commission now!"

"Step aside."

A stern voice sounded, Li De Weiler and Yazhe mother and daughter stepped aside at the same time, revealing the voice behind them.

With a stern face, even wearing orange sunglasses can't hide his tough and handsome appearance. His dark brown hair is not well taken care of, and looks a little messy, but it doesn't affect his tough temperament at all, but adds a touch of chic.

Cong Yunxie, the leader of the mercenary unit [Serpent Tail], is deeply trusted by his comrades and has a long-standing reputation in the underground world for completing impossible tasks. As the absolute core of the team, Cong Yunxie is even more Has the reputation of "the strongest mercenary".

"Long time no see, Xie, by the way you look, you are doing well."

"Well, is the entrustment started now?"

"The entrustment begins, as the escort of this ship, until it breaks away from ZAFT's pursuit and arrives at the Atlantic Federation lunar base."

"Understood, the entrustment begins."

This is Cong Yunxie's style, straightforward and straightforward, even good acquaintances will not exchange too many pleasantries, everything is based on tasks.

However, Cong Yunxiu does not accept all commissions. Unlike other "dirty jobs" who are willing to accept all kinds of "dirty jobs" for the sake of money, Congyun often considers whether to accept task requests from a moral and political perspective, so he rarely accepts deliberate "dirty jobs". Killing", overpowering or other sabotage missions, which also gives Serpent's Tail a good name.

After the communication ended, everyone looked at Yang Hui.

"...Didn't you tell them?" Yang Hui asked Maru.

"Uh...not yet..." Maru was ashamed, she really forgot to inform the crew about this incident, and after rescuing Lacus later, she really forgot what she saw at first.

Immediately, Maliu informed everyone about Yang Hui's hiring of [Giant Serpent's Tail], and it did not cause any disturbance. After all, Maliu was the captain and their military commander, and they only needed to obey orders, and the mercenaries The guards also added a security guarantee for them, and it wasn't because they paid for it that fools would not be happy.

At this time, a brand new hope appeared in front of everyone.

"captain!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Encrypted pulse signal received... This is! The encrypted pulse signal of the Earth Army's Eighth Orbital Fleet!"

"Is it confirmed?"

"Can you track it?" Bucky Lulu asked quickly.

"Doing... start analyzing!"

"...Zizi...Zizi...here is...the Eighth Fleet advance...Montgomery...Archangel...answer..."

"It's the troops under the command of Brigadier General Halbarton!"

"Yahoo~!"

"Is he looking for us?"

"Where's the location?"

"Is it Major Copperman's unit?"

"Great!"

Mario, Bucky Lulu, Arnold and others were finally relieved of their heavy feelings all the way here, and they felt like they had finally found home.

But... only Yang Hui showed a worried expression after everyone else.
