Dr. Lingos finally got rid of the days of traveling around the world and returned to Anaheim to start work. Scientific research is not only a job for him, but also his greatest interest and hobby. Although there are many interesting things that can be encountered everywhere, he still prefers to stay on the moon.
At this moment, he is in his office, writing and drawing on the huge electronic screen on the desktop. On the screen is a huge and intricate technology tree, and each branch is full of technical terms that are unclear.
"It's also nanotechnology, why is the gap between nanotechnology so big." Ed tapped the pen unconsciously on the screen, "Don't say Nuonuo, it's only a hundred years, how do you see the serial strip array? Can't get out."
He sighed irritably, saved everything on the screen and cleared it all, picked up the pen and started writing again.
"Time, please stop, can't you give me a thousand years to slowly farm." Ed listed the things he needed one by one from memory, and adjusted the priority from time to time, "In the end, I can only take risks. , V plan, this is fate..."
I couldn't feel the passage of time in my concentration. When Ed had almost completed the rough plan, he found that there was still more than an hour before he got off work. He encrypted the plan layer by layer and chose to save it. He opened a news website and began to read it. On the home page, Sirocco's ugly middle-aged and elderly women's hairstyle appeared.
"...a small group of underworld elements in the army who violated the law and disorderly discipline, under the planning of foreign reactionary forces with ulterior motives, carried out organized and premeditated terrorist activities aimed at splitting the unity of the country and undermining the prestige of the army..." Ed thought. My own business, while absently listening to Sirocco's statement made in the morning, "... Terrorism is the main obstacle to solving world peace and development, but we must recognize that this is a challenge and an opportunity. At a critical juncture, we must go up and down. Concentricity, Overcoming Difficulties..."
In the previous incident, he generously left the wreckage of several mobile suits to the Halevi family, and sold them a lot of favor. It is no exaggeration to say that the first three rows of the whole earth were threatened with life, and immediately turned the MS and its driver upside down. Sirocco can be described as devastated now, and many allies can't wait to distance themselves from him. The effect of such a statement can only be said to be better than nothing.
"So Titans is almost ready to receive the net, and the rest is Britannia." Ed completely ignored the video and thought to himself, "The courier has already signed for it, Nanali's side. Why haven't you moved yet?"
The λ-drive research is difficult to continue without clinical data to support it, and according to his speculation, this thing and Geass are likely to conflict. Of course, this is purely theoretical speculation and has not been confirmed, so he has absolutely no intention of telling Nanali. This is definitely not because Xia Ya warned him countless times, "Lelouch's ability is too dangerous, you are not stupid."
"Nanali is so smart, Lelouch is not stupid, and Suzaku is so stupid, I believe she will be able to solve it." Ed thought at ease, "Don't make judgments on uncertain things, scientific things, you can't It's called calculation."
Just as he was thinking about it, the doorbell rang suddenly. Ed quickly turned off the video and the web page, clicked on a design document to maximize it on the desktop, then picked up the pen and put on a contemplative look, and finally pressed the answer button and said in a majestic voice: "Come in."
The door of the office was pushed open, and Diana led Roland in in sequence. Before the door was closed, Harry could vaguely be seen through the crack of the door, guarding outside. The husband and wife sat down on the sofa very naturally. It was obviously not the first time that they had done such a thing, and they wouldn't care about the red tape in terms of their relationship.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Ai... for disturbing your thinking." Roland smiled apologetically at Ed, then turned to complain to Diana, "I'll just say he's busy, he should wait until he gets off work, so much not good."
Diana glanced at Roland, did not speak, but looked at Ed. She has always been reticent, and this attitude is not surprising.
"It's alright, I just finished my work." Ed turned off the document and stood up. He remembered that Roland liked drinking tea and took two clean cups to start making tea. "Is there anything you need to find me at this time?"
Roland glanced at Diana weakly, and Diana took the initiative to say: "In order to thank you for your previous actions, I would like to invite you to our house for dinner. Please forgive me for making my own decisions. I have already obtained consent from Mrs. Zun in advance."
"I'm sorry, I wanted to ask you first, but it's always not good for me to disturb your thinking." Roland apologized again and looked at him with hopeful sincere eyes, "But today I'll cook by myself. , I hope the doctor can appreciate it."
"Okay, Lux knows that, of course I'm willing." Ed smiled and picked up two cups and walked to the sofa, "I have never tasted His Royal Highness Roland's craftsmanship, this time I made a lot of money."
Seeing Ed coming over, Roland quickly got up and took the cup. As for touching Roland's hand or something, everyone is a friend. This is a normal thing, and it's nothing surprising.
Roland in front of him was wearing ordinary men's clothes and sitting side by side with Diana. Looking at him like this, Ed didn't have any other thoughts. He was facing an ordinary friend. And what happened that night was like a dream bubble, nothing but a few sighs, and should not be left behind.
The husband and wife had a casual chat with Ed again. Seeing that it was almost time, the group drove to Diana's house. Diana was very grateful to Ed for rescuing her husband. She took the initiative to take the co-pilot in the car and let Roland sit in the back row to talk to Ed more.
The dinner was held in a happy and peaceful atmosphere, and Ed was naturally full of praise for Roland's craftsmanship. After hearing the good words about not wanting money, Roland was beaming with joy, and Diana was also very proud.
It was still too early to leave after dinner, and everyone sat down and chatted for a while. On the way, Diana took the initiative to mention: "This time it is really thanks to the doctor, I don't know how to thank you. I know you are not a vulgar person, But if there is anything you want, please feel free to say it, and I will do my best to satisfy it.”
"It's really not necessary!" Ed and Roland spoke at the same time, and the two looked at each other in surprise, and Roland continued, "Diana, doesn't it seem very raw for us to force him to get paid like this?"
"Yeah, yeah, it's too detached, it's only natural for a friend to be in danger and help him." Ed followed his words and continued, "If I really want something, I will definitely talk to His Royal Highness Roland myself. said."
Seeing that both of them said so, Diana had to give up.
After chatting for a while, Ed said goodbye to the Queen and his wife seeing that it was getting late. Roland insisted on sending Ed into the car in person. When the two walked out of the door side by side, Roland stopped suddenly, and Ed followed him and stopped to look at him curiously.
"Well, in fact, I don't know how to thank you." Roland smiled shyly in the dark, "No matter how you look at it, for me, this is a life-saving grace."
"It's rude to not care about it like this. You can't care about your life." Ed scratched his head in distress, and said in a ghostly way, "Isn't it a reward for me to learn to dance?"
"Of course not, my life is not so worthless." Roland turned his head embarrassedly, "And you are just getting started, and you are still a long way from learning."
Ed didn't know how to answer for a while, and the scene was embarrassed.
"So I did something for you on my own initiative, and I just finished it today during the day." Roland broke the silence and winked playfully at him, "It's a surprise, you'll know when you go back."
Confused, Ed returned home and was greeted by—
"What time is it, and you know you're back, you have some conscience." CC's tone was still strong, but his voice was softer than ever before, "I bought a dozen new sets of clothes, you can help me refer to it tonight, that's all. "
"Ed, let's dance." An Qi whispered in his ear, "I found out the princess's dress again, um, anyway, you know, you are not allowed to run tonight."
"That, I, I can do it anytime!" Taoxiang stared at him with a blushing face, "It can be done today too!"
"Lacus gave them computer accessories at dinner?" Ed hid in Minerva's room as if he was fleeing, and at the same time instructed the little girl to go to his room to guard, and then quickly took out his mobile phone and called the culprit. "Hello, His Royal Highness Roland?"
"I'm sorry, wait a moment." There were footsteps and the sound of opening and closing the door. "Okay, it's convenient now. Diana was next to me just now. It's very late. Is there anything urgent?"
"What the hell are you doing?!" Ed's voice became louder involuntarily, "They are one or two, it's like, it's like..."
"I mailed a marriage certificate to each of them in your name, a legally valid version stamped by the Civil Affairs Bureau."
"I...!" Everything made sense in an instant, "Wait, Taoxiang also has?!"
"Isn't it Taoxiang? I'm sorry, maybe I screwed up in self-righteousness." Roland's voice suddenly became very depressed, "I made my own decisions without consulting you, I'm really sorry, if I caused you trouble—"
"No trouble, I'm very happy, you did a great job!" Ed interrupted him decisively, "You did it so well that I don't even know how to thank you!"
"You don't need to comfort me. You can tell from your tone that I did something wrong. I'm really sorry." Roland smiled bitterly, his voice getting lower and lower, "Your family's situation is complicated enough, but I But it made it worse. Obviously I just wanted to surprise you, didn't expect to... I'm really sorry..."
There are two options before Ed. Either hang up, pretend nothing happened tomorrow, and let time heal everything. Either continue to comfort Roland, relying on a three-inch tongue, and talk about understanding each other.
"Angie asked me to dance with her, but I feel like I haven't learned it yet, and I don't want to make a fool of myself in front of her." Ed's mind became hot and he chose the third option, "Can you continue to teach me?"
…
"I can't." Instantly rebuffed coldly, "If there is nothing else, leave."
Suzaku looked frustrated and disappeared from sight, and walked back listlessly. This is the first time he has failed to invite Shanshen to his house. Even though he was walking on the road, he seemed to have hallucinated Nanali in his ears, "Trash is trash, useless, and Emperor Euphemia. This kind of waste is really a natural pair," the voice said.
"The last sentence is not quite like what she said." Suzaku said to himself, "It is impossible for her to say such a happy line."
Half an hour later, what was waiting for him was: "Trash is trash. This is the first time you have failed? It's useless at all. No wonder you are hugging and licking each other's wounds with a trash like Queen Euphemia."
"Although it's not as good as a natural couple, it's acceptable to lick each other's wounds." Suzaku thought inexplicably, "The power of habit is really scary."
The Lelouch brothers and sisters are now lurking in Suzaku's house, using Geass to infiltrate the upper echelons of Britannia. Without the Char-level head-changing technique, they did not choose to show their faces, but cautiously passed through Suzaku's steadily expanding relationship network every day, and invited important people to come and control them one by one. There is nothing more stupid than holding the invincible golden finger and failing because of blind waves. things are up.
The moment when Ed was very concerned, because it was directly under the emperor's jurisdiction, it failed several times, which made Nanali very unhappy.
"We've already won, what's there to worry about?" Lelouch asked inexplicably, "Schoenazel's coup can be launched at any time, as long as they both lose, we will come out to suppress the audience and clean up the mess. If you don't feel safe enough, I have a more perfect plan."
"What?" Nanali asked without any expectation.
"We can buy or control the defense forces and construction workers of the imperial capital." Lelouch smiled confidently, "Then we buried a ring of explosives under the palace, just waiting for them to gather—"
"Okay, brother." Nanali interrupted him impatiently. "I'm thinking about serious matters, and I don't have time to tell jokes."
"Is that so, what's that serious question?" Suzaku was still watching, Lelouch couldn't hold back, "I'm going to win, and I can avenge them right away. Nanali, why do we still won't start?"
"Because there aren't enough chips." Nanali paced back and forth irritably. "The problem is that you won too fast, and you didn't save enough chips before everything was over. The secrets of Shanna F. Qingying and 00 Gundam were not figured out, Lingo. Mr. Smith must be very disappointed. Do you have to take the risk to probe the person you perceive in the underground outside the palace? You can't risk Charles's destruction, you have to go beforehand."
"Why do you have to please that person?" Lelouch felt jealous and raised his voice unconsciously, "Is that person's opinion so important?"
"The group of trash in the palace can already be flattened, so why wait until now? How many times has Mr. Lingos urged me? What do you think I've been dawdling for so long?" Nanali shouted impatiently. , "It's not for you!"
"For me?" Lelouch was stunned. "You look down on him too much. I admit that he is very smart, but also—"
"Do you really think that Adrian Lingus is an honest and honest scholar sitting in the laboratory and immersing himself in research? Be a little conscious of your own abilities, brother!" Nanali suddenly felt very tired, a little bit I don't want to work any more, "You want to start and take revenge so much, so let's start directly. Maybe Mr. Lingos is a good-hearted person? Shumu Suzaku."
"Yes." Suzaku finally spoke like a transparent person from beginning to end.
"Go to the warehouse last time. The new wine that Mr. Lingos sent hasn't been opened yet." Nanali took out an object from her pocket and threw it at Suzaku. "This is a corkscrew."
Suzaku took the small device and put it away, and drove the Lelouch brothers and sisters, who were in a slightly awkward atmosphere, to a private warehouse where they were packed. There was only one mobile suit in the huge and empty warehouse, reflecting a cold pitch-black sheen under the illumination of the ceiling lamp of the warehouse. The fuselage is wrapped by the wing-like components that stretch out from the back, and it is not really specific.
"Because it's a secret weapon that can't be exposed, there's no chance for you to be familiar with the operation, but you should be familiar with the instructions, right?" Suzaku nodded under Nanali's gaze, "Mr. Lingos doesn't know why he has an abnormality towards you, this waste. Confidence, don't let me down."
"For Euphemia." Suzaku looked at the MS in front of him and felt a chill rush into his brain from behind, "Even if you become a god of death, it would be worth it."
