I participated in the development of EVA

Ikari Fumihiko was a little surprised.

These people didn't take over the immortality surgery project team. Did they not receive the relevant information? Or did the top management not want too many people to know about this project?

Ibuki Huimi was stunned when she saw the dozen or so people who came in with Ikari Fumihiko.

"Who are these people?"

"Senior agent of the Nerv Investigation Department."

When she heard the name, she realized that Fumihiko Ikari had just told her about this matter two days ago.

The top management is moving so fast——

"how should I do?"

"You don't have to do anything. Just take a day off and leave this to them."

After saying that, Fumihiko Ikari looked at the NERV members.

"Is that so?"

"Yes. In addition, we hope that Minister Ikari can convene a general meeting to bring together all departments within the institute to explain the situation."

"Row."

Ikari Fumihiko didn't say anything, so Ibuki Huimi picked up the phone and notified the personnel department to hold a general meeting.

Come to the conference hall and sit down.

Fumihiko Ikari sat at the council table.

Ibuki Megumi, Hashimoto Saori, and Ayanami Rei sat on the chairs behind him, and several senior agents of the NERV Investigation Department stood beside them.

After waiting for a while, personnel from various departments arrived at the scene one after another, leaving only Naoko Akagi as the only one who had not arrived.

Before he could call to inquire about the situation, Akagi and her daughter also walked into the conference room.

"Now that everyone is here, let's start this meeting."

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Ikari Fumihiko who was speaking.

Ikari Fumihiko paused for a moment before continuing, "Everyone must have noticed the previous riots, but it doesn't matter if you didn't notice it. I will briefly explain the situation to you. The board of directors confirmed the cooperation with the United Nations this morning and jointly established a department to defend against the third impact, NERV.

Now the research institute has been incorporated into the R&D department of this department, and I am now the director of this R&D department. Well, you are all now formal civil servants in the United Nations.

That’s all for this meeting.”

He spoke briefly, but everyone below was so shocked by the news that they were speechless for a moment.

17:53:42

409. It’s all Fu Fu’s fault.

Although the people present held high positions, most of them, whether they joined after the impact or before the impact, were not core members of Seele, and they did not even know that they were working for Seele. Therefore, they knew almost nothing about Seele, and only knew that there was a mysterious board of directors above the top management of the institute.

After hesitating for a long time, a department head finally raised his hand.

"Weren't we working for the United Nations?"

"No, it's a research institute set up by an organization without borders."

"Without Borders?"

Not only the person who asked the question had a dull look in his eyes, but most of the others did too.

They really didn't know that there was a borderless organization in the world that could support world-class scientific research projects like EVA. They have always felt that they are serving a world-class power. Many people even think that the EVA project is a project organized by the United Nations.

"Correct."

Ikari Fumihiko responded.

After everyone came to their senses, they all fell silent.

Ikari Fumihiko spoke up, breaking the silence.

"The previous director may know what organization it is, but I don't know. Since I took over, I have been handing over projects with two senior representatives."

His eyes fell on Saori Hashimoto, and the others' eyes also fell on this breathtakingly beautiful woman.

The same is true for the senior nerv agents who are responsible for "security" in the conference room.

Saori Hashimoto shook her head nervously.

"I recently got this job for some reason. I have only been responsible for the liaison work between this side and the other side. I don't even know the contact person's information."

No one, including Fumihiko Ikari, believed Saori Hashimoto's story.

The main reason why Ikari Fumihiko didn't believe it was that he didn't know whether the background stories told by the American consul were true or not. However, even if he found out that everything was true, he still wouldn't easily believe this woman. The reason was simple: one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be on guard against others. He was not the kind of person who would be unable to walk when he saw a woman and would trust her unconditionally.

After another long silence, someone couldn't help but ask.

"Is this organization really researching EVA to prevent the Third Impact?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ikari Fumihiko.

For a long time, after seeing the power of EVA, everyone would unconsciously have this kind of worry.

If it had been before the United Nations intervened, even if Fumihiko Ikari did not help cover it up, he would definitely give an ambiguous answer. Now that the United Nations has initially taken over the institute, he has fewer concerns. Compared to Seele, who wants to complete human completion, the United Nations is somewhat more trustworthy.

But he still couldn't tell the truth.

"I'm not sure, but I personally think this organization is not as trustworthy as the United Nations."

It could be a personal threat, or it could be that someone from the United Nations was standing nearby, and everyone was afraid that they would be targeted in the future if they expressed opposition, so they immediately agreed.

"Correct."

"Director, I agree with this view."

"I feel the same way."

"The United Nations is, after all, a formal organization formed by all the countries in the world. It is naturally more trustworthy than that organization of unknown origin."

……

At this moment, everyone's approval and Ikari Fumihiko's statement made the three major countries very satisfied.

Yes, when Fumihiko Ikari talked about this topic, he was not only explaining the situation but also expressing his stance.

He raised his hand and everyone quieted down. He still had some authority.

"Next, please ask the United Nations representative to explain the status of the institute after it is incorporated into the nerv organization under the United Nations."

Senior agents such as Lin Yu were all stunned, but soon realized that Fumihiko Ikari was asking the United Nations to express its stance as well.

The video and voice channels for external communication have been turned on all the time, so the top leaders of the three major countries are naturally aware of the situation here.

This time it was a senior agent from Russia who spoke on behalf of the country.

"According to the results of our discussion with Minister Ikari, after the institute is merged into NERV, in accordance with Minister Ikari's request, everyone here and his department staff will not only receive UN civil servant benefits, but we will also improve the ground dormitories as soon as possible as requested by Minister Ikari, so that everyone can move out of the underground as soon as possible, as well as the above-ground and underground transportation routes, to facilitate everyone's commuting in the future.

Apart from this, non-core staff can freely choose to stay or leave.

As for the core members present here, in order to avoid information leaks causing social unrest and unnecessary confusion, core members need to pass a review before they can leave, and I hope everyone will forgive me for this.”

The three major countries also demonstrated their sincerity in cooperation.

Apart from the expectation of living a normal life, people don't care about salary and benefits. In today's situation, being able to live in the sunshine is a luxury enough.

Ikari Fumihiko frowned, a little dissatisfied with this.

"Did you say a little less?"

Not only were the senior Russian agents confused, but even the top leaders of the three major countries behind them were somewhat puzzled.

"What's missing?"

"What about those who previously sacrificed themselves for the survival of the human race?"

Fumihiko Ikari has never had any contact with those people, but he doesn't want their efforts to be ignored. Of course, his mind is not so pure. Naturally, it is mixed with the idea of ​​winning people's hearts and minds, as well as using it to gain some benefits for Ibuki Huimi. Although she can't use it, Professor Yamaki will definitely benefit from it.

Everyone was stunned, and then their expressions became complicated.

The senior Russian agent waited for the top leaders to finish their response before beginning his narration.

"For those casualties caused in preventing the third impact, the United Nations promises to all of you on behalf of all mankind that humanity will never treat them unfairly, nor will they forget their contributions." After saying these polite words, he talked about the actual solution. "The sacrificed personnel will be treated as martyrs, and the surviving disabled personnel will receive the highest level of compensation."

After these words were spoken, Fumihiko Ikari nodded and expressed his attitude. The conference room fell silent again, waiting for the follow-up personnel from NERV.

We worked tirelessly for several hours, and even had dinner in the conference room until ten o'clock in the evening.

Only then did a senior agent speak.

"It's getting late. Today's meeting ends here. Let's go back and rest."

No one in the research institute moved, their eyes fell on Ikari Fumihiko. No one present was a fool, at a time like this the only way to avoid danger was to stick together.

"In that case, let's adjourn the meeting."

Everyone then stood up and left.

On the way back to the dormitory, Fumihiko Ikari did not notice any changes around him and did not dwell on these things. There was no point in delving into them anyway. After returning to the dormitory, he did not see Asuka. She had obviously gone to rest. She had a very regular schedule, went to bed early and got up early, and was so self-disciplined that she did not look like a five-year-old child at all.

17:53:55

410. Chasing Light

In this situation, Fumihiko Ikari was a little worried because he didn't see Asuka.

"Korea?"

I wanted Ayanami Rei to go check on Asuka, but she found out that she had gone to take a shower, and the same went for Ibuki Megumi.

He had no choice but to go in person.

No matter how mature Asuka behaves, she is still just a five-year-old child.

There were not many rooms in the dormitory, so after Asuka moved in, she and Ayanami Rei slept in the same room.

I knocked on the door, but there was no response, so I opened the room and went in to check.

Then he saw Asuka sleeping as usual, holding a stitched doll in her arms and wearing cute pajamas with cartoon patterns. She didn't have the habit of wearing pajamas to sleep in the past, but Ikari Fumihiko was worried that the two of them would not get along well, so he checked the room on a whim. The scene made Ikari Fumihiko a little embarrassed, so he forced her to correct the problem of not wearing pajamas.

Looking at the desk lamp that was still on, Fumihiko Ikari frowned but did not go over to turn it off.

When he was doing his ward rounds earlier, he turned off the lamp so that he could see Asuka's physical development very clearly. Of course, this only made him a little embarrassed, because Asuka was only five years old and didn't feel anything at all.

If I don't help turn off the lights now, Asuka won't be able to sleep without them.

Others might not understand this habit, but he could.

After the death of his grandfather, the only person who cared about him before he traveled through time, he lived alone in an old house. During that period, he spent every night in the Internet cafe at first. However, with the decline of the Internet cafe, fewer people staying in the dormitory, and the pressure of life, he had to face the night alone, so he developed the habit of sleeping with the lights on.

Without the company of light, I dare not face the silent night.

He was even so sick during that period that he specially prepared desk lamps and batteries, things that could dispel the darkness, just to deal with power outages. He even spent most of his first salary to buy a generator, just to deal with the power outages that only occurred a few times a year.

Later, perhaps because time had passed, a person got used to it and lost the habit of sleeping with the lights on.

He was already a teenager at the time and it was like this, not to mention Asuka who is only five years old now.

Having had similar life experiences, he knew very well that for Asuka now, the faint light of this desk lamp was her support, her spiritual shelter, and the source of her courage to face the world alone. At this moment, Asuka gave people the feeling of a sunflower chasing the light, which would wither without the sunshine.

"Good night."

After whispering softly, he turned and walked out.

Rei Ayanami simply washed up and walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. After being together for so long, he was no longer surprised by this.

Indeed, it's time to move to a bigger house.

Now that the two little ones are still young, the difference between boys and girls can be ignored for the time being. It would be a bit inappropriate if this continues when they grow up.

Clearing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, he walked into another bathroom.

Ibuki Huimei was taking a bath in the bathtub, and he simply rinsed off. At first, the two of them didn't communicate. They had been in the conference room for more than ten hours in a boring manner and had no extra energy to talk. When he was about to finish rinsing, Ibuki Huimei spoke up, "Nerv has taken over all security work today. Maybe they should start arranging their own team to come in the day after tomorrow?"

"The situation should be more urgent. A large number of teams should be arriving tomorrow. I think I will be busy arranging for these teams to integrate into the institute in the next two days."

Ibuki Huimi fell silent again.

Fumihiko Ikari didn't react at first, but after a while he gradually realized that in addition to the scientific research team, Nerv would also send civilian staff, including someone to replace Ibuki Huimi. Nerv would definitely find a way to control such an important position as the director's secretary, unless he, the director, handled the documents himself.
