A journey through the Gundam world

Alex leaned back on the comfortable chair and waved to her.

The convoy soon arrived at the Yixiu family's mansion. As the chief of the Seven Stars family, the Yixiu family owned a luxurious-looking manor.

You know, this is Van Gelf.

The land on this artificial island can be said to be very valuable. The only one who can own a manor here is the Seven Stars family.

Among them, the Ixiu family was the largest. After getting off the car, the rest of Tekkadan seemed a little cautious when they saw such a huge manor.

"Straighten up, you are my people, and this is my home, why are you so reserved?"

Alex's words made Eugene and others straighten their backs unconsciously.

"Lord Karta, you are back!"

At the gate of the manor, a man dressed as a butler came to greet him.

The butler with a strong man's hair was a little emotional when he saw Karta sitting in a wheelchair.

"Butler Edgar, I'm back."

At this moment, Carta didn't have the same temperament as she did in front of Alex. Although she was sitting in a wheelchair, her words and expressions looked exactly like a young lady's.

"Butler Edgar, long time no see."

Nanao, who was pushing Carta, also bowed politely to the old butler.

"Ah, Nanao, you did a good job."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Then, the butler looked at Alex.

And Alex was also looking at the butler.

According to the list of Ixiu family members provided by Nanao, this old butler named Edgar Jacob Stray.

He has served the Yi Xiu family for more than 50 years. He even grew up with the current head of the family and is quite trusted by the current Lord Yi Xiu.

And after the death of the previous housekeeper, he took over the position of housekeeper of the Ixiu family.

Even though the old butler looks so kind on the surface, he is actually responsible for controlling the Yi Xiu family's intelligence and assassination organization.

Loki's original team was all personally selected by Edgar.

Although according to the vassalage of my vassalage, it is not my vassalage principle.However, during this period of time, the actions of Nanao and others were carried out under the arrangement of the old housekeeper.

It's enough to show that this butler is more than just a hairstylist.

And when Loki disappeared and the current head of the family suffered a stroke, he was also the one who stabilized the interior of the Yi Xiu family in time.

And he persisted until Yi Xiu Gong regained consciousness after suffering a stroke. Although there was still some damage, the old housekeeper's efforts to turn the tide prevented the Yi Xiu family from completely falling into pieces.

It can be said that the person in front of me has made great contributions to the Yixiu family through hard work.

After the two sides looked at each other for a moment, the other side bowed with impeccable etiquette.

"Welcome back, Master."

"Thank you. Although I can't remember who you are, both Carta and Nanao told me a lot about you."

Seeing Edgar bowing to Alex, Karta understood that it seemed that the results of the second round of DNA testing had come out.

And it was the result she expected.

"Master, Miss, and all guests, please come in."

Under the leadership of the butler, the group entered the manor.

On the way to the main building of the manor in a small scooter, Alex still saw some clues.

For example, the grass in the manor was somewhat neglected, and there were not many servants coming to greet it.

It seems that the Yixiu family has indeed suffered a serious blow.

This was further confirmed after entering the manor's buildings.

Butler Edgar noticed his gaze and spoke to him frankly.

"Master, your disappearance and the head of the family's stroke are a heavy blow to the Yi Xiu family, so..."

"I understand, thank you for your hard work, Butler Edgar."

He politely thanked the old butler, and then pointed at Eugene and others.

"They are all members who followed me all the way from Mars. They are also hard-working and good guys, so just treat them according to normal standards."

"I understand, thank you very much for your understanding."

The old butler waved to another servant to come over.

"I'll take you to the standard guest room to rest first."

"Yes!"

Alex also turned to Eugene and said.

"Eugene, take everyone to rest first. Akihiro and MS will be sent here directly, don't worry."

"Understood, Captain."

After the others followed the other servants and left, Edgar looked at their backs.

"They are all a group of great young men, but it's a pity that they embarked on this path so young."

"There is no way. Although the living conditions on Mars have been improved, they are still harsh. If you can find a job that can provide enough food, even if it is a dangerous job like becoming a mercenary, many people are rushing to do it."

The old housekeeper nodded. Although he had never been there, based on the intelligence, he could see the cruelty of Mars between the lines.

He did not continue to sigh, but stretched out his hand.

"Please, Master, Miss, I will wait for you again."

Alex didn't speak, but with an uneasy mood, he followed the old housekeeper who led the way, pushing Carta to the second floor of this Baroque building.

Arriving at a door guarded by guards, the old housekeeper stopped.

The four sentries at the door saw that it was the butler and immediately saluted with their guns.

"We're here, please wait."

After saying that, he reached out and entered the password on the code plate next to the door, and then checked his irises and palm prints.

"This is an additional defensive measure to prevent someone from trying to assassinate the head of the family again after you disappeared."

The old housekeeper explained to him, and while he was talking, the door opened.

But unexpectedly, the interior was not a room, but a small room was separated. There was another door on the wall opposite the room.

After the three people entered, the first door was closed, and the butler entered the password again and checked the irises and palm prints.

After the second door opened, he finally entered the ward, but Alex found a sense of disobedience here.

No matter how he looked on the bed, he didn't look like a patient, and there was a strange layout in the room.

"Young master, you have discovered something, something is not normal here."

The butler turned and looked at him.

"Yes, I found out."

"Please allow me to introduce that this room has undergone special strengthening measures and can withstand short-term direct hits from MS's 130mm live ammunition."

"Is that why this room seems so small?"

"Yes, sir."

"What about this one...Although I have lost my memory, this is obviously not my father."

Alex pointed at the guy in a hospital gown who had stood up and saluted the three of them.

Although the other party was disguised as Yi Xiugong, he looked so lively and energetic that he didn't look like someone who had suffered a stroke.

"Yes, this is the third method. The purpose is to mislead others and make them think that the master is here."

After that, Edgar walked to the bookshelf opposite the hospital bed, pulled the switch, and a secret door opened.

"Please, Master, Miss."

Seeing the accustomed look on Carta's face, Alex understood that this exaggerated defensive method was not aimed at himself.

So he pushed Karta into the secret door.

After Edgar followed in, the secret door closed.

Alex looked around and realized that this was actually an elevator.

After the old butler went through the tedious authentication process again, he felt the elevator begin to move downwards.

"Actually, my father is hiding underground?"

"Yes, sir."

Chapter 200

While the elevator was descending, Edgar told him everything.

Such elaborate security measures were not always the case from the beginning.

When it first opened, Yi Xiugong, who had suffered a stroke, was indeed lying in the room on the second floor.

However, as the investigation into Loki's attack and disappearance deepened, the old housekeeper noticed something strange.

It is clear that Loki's disappearance was not an accident, but a well-planned attack.

Although it was not yet clear who was behind it.

But what is certain is that this was the work of someone inside Gallallhorn.

Because after investigation, they found another missing Schwabel, but the whereabouts of the pilot, Adjutant Rocky, were unknown.

According to speculation, this adjutant attached to the Supervision Department most likely stabbed Loki in the back after being instigated.

But who did it?have no idea.

Unless the adjutant himself can be found, and his family also disappeared shortly after Loki was attacked...

Although the clue was broken, Edgar, who was keen, immediately started taking measures to strengthen Yi Xiugong's safety.

From thickening the room at the beginning, to arranging secret elevators, and arranging stand-ins.The entire project was carried out in secret for several months without alerting others.

Until now, the guards guarding the door on the second floor still firmly believe that Mr. Yi Xiugong is in the security-reinforced room behind him.

It can be seen that in addition to maids, housekeepers are also a magical profession.

"Please, Master, Miss."

The elevator stopped and opened the door, and Edgar led the two of them into the safe house deep underground.

Alex pushed Carta and looked around.

This is a wide corridor that can even accommodate MW driving inside.

It seems that the use of MW transfer in emergencies has also been considered, which means that this exit is not the only one here.

After passing through another door, Alex's suspicion was confirmed.

Through the transparent window in the corridor, he saw Gnaku.

Barbatos and Gusin were being placed on the staging rack.

In addition, there were several other mobile suits standing in the distance, but he did not look at them carefully.

After passing through this corridor, they entered the living area.

Here, he noticed that there were more medical staff.

This means it's time to arrive.

Finally, the old housekeeper stopped in front of a door again.

Soldiers wearing uniforms with the crest of the Isu family saluted the butler, who stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After the overhead camera identified the three people one by one, the ward door opened from the inside.

'What an exaggerated security measure...'
