"Stop making trouble, you two." Lux helplessly dragged the troubled Alice off An Qi. "There are still things to do. We'll go home when we're done."
"I'm just doing the right thing!" An Qi stomped her feet in disgust, "Oh, Lux, you're just..."
"Don't watch them play tricks here, Ed, hurry up and coax Commander Bright." Lux gestured in the direction of Bright's departure with her eyes, "I'm afraid it's a lot of resentment from his tone just now, hurry up as soon as possible. To solve the hidden danger, the more you delay, the worse it will become, you must never develop the arrogant habit of Xi Ya and Sirocco."
"Are you really angry?" Alice asked ignorantly, "Isn't that person still laughing?"
"He's just going down the steps in front of Ed's family, he doesn't want to be too stiff." Lux pondered for a moment, "Forget it, with Ed's emotional intelligence, you may not be able to handle it, I'll come in person. Come on. Angie, Alice, Ed and I will go back when we go, you two just stay here and don't move around."
After he finished speaking, he took Ed's arm and quickly chased after Brett, leaving An Qi and Alice staring at the same place. An Qi was stunned for a while, and puffed up her cheeks gloomily: "Alice, why do you think she is a big woman?"
"Because she is. She was the first to officially register marriage with Ed." Alice said and rushed to An Qi again, "Stupid An Qi, I'm going to continue collecting data!"
"You're the stupid music player!" An Qi lifted Alice with one hand, "What are you thinking in broad daylight? What if someone sees you? If you want to do something bad, you won't hide in TurnA's cockpit first. what?"
There Lux and Ed caught up with Bright, who met the Lingos in his office. After Bright instructed his adjutant to go out, he sat across from the two with a blank face: "Aren't you going back? What else?"
"That, Commander Bright, is about today's affairs." Eddard took the initiative to speak under the prompting of Lux's eyes, "I want to explain today's affairs."
"There's nothing to explain." Bright put on a formulaic smile, "Dr. Lingos has foresighted and calculated three steps, not only solved the threat of the apostles, but also demonstrated the force of the moon, for world peace and human happiness. You have made an indelible contribution, and our army will go all out and continue to cooperate with you in the future."
Ed's head hurt when he saw this, and sure enough Lux was right: "I know you have emotions."
"I'm not in the mood," Bright replied, "Hehe, I'm not in the mood."
Ed continued bitterly: "I know you don't want to be kept in the dark."
"I'm afraid I don't even know how many years I've been blinded." Speaking of this, Bright couldn't help his eyebrows stand up and his stomach was full of fire, "Lingus, I'm taking such a big risk to cooperate with you, I want you to give it to you now. I'm not going to give a lot of information, right? Is there a problem? No problem, okay, then let me ask you, did you bring the apostle here?"
Ed blurted out conditioned reflexively: "The apostle asked me to bring you a—"
Without even thinking about it, Lux stretched out her fingernails and pinched the back of his hand covertly, causing Ed to hold back the second half of the sentence in pain. Said that Ed often told me at home that you were brave and decisive on the battlefield, able to make good decisions, and in the army, you were considerate to your subordinates and treated others with generosity. You are one of the people he admires the most."
Ed hurriedly nodded with regret: "The people I admire most in my life are Dr. Minovsky, His Royal Highness Roland, and Commander Bright."
"How can I be compared with Dr. Minovsky and Prince Roland?" Bright's expression softened a little. "Then tell me, what happened to the apostle?"
Lux pinched Ed's hand and caressed the back of his hand gently, Ed took over the topic with a coherent heart: "I summed up the previous rules and found that the apostles seem to be actually attracted by the quantum coordinate generator, and the geographical There are certain rules in the location, so I guessed whether it was Kilimanjaro this time. I couldn't wait to call and tell you before when I thought of it, I wonder if you remember, Commander?"
"Remember." Bright nodded. "It's better to call me by my name. Then you go on to say, what's the matter with the time?"
"There are also rules in time, through some kind of complicated algorithm. After this time test, it is consistent with my guess." Ed said in a false way, "Every time the set date arrives, the next A coordinate will be automatically activated. The activated coordinate generator will send a special signal through the back door, attracting the apostles lurking nearby.”
"Ed realized that there may be other people behind this, and deeply felt the seriousness of the situation. He didn't sleep well for several nights." Lux pressed Ed's hand to signal him not to speak, and she made With an extremely distressed expression, "Considering that he can no longer waste his energy on internal consumption, he had to resort to dangerous tactics and make this last resort."
"I understand the whole story. Although the plan is cruel, it is not unacceptable." Bright, as a veteran of the war, looked down on a vote of politicians who died, "Then why didn't you talk to me in advance? Whistleblowing, or do you suspect that I will not support your plans?"
"In the beginning, I wanted to discuss with you first, how can such a big thing be planned secretly alone." Ed said sincerely, "but at the last moment when I picked up the phone, I felt that I couldn't do it, and I regretted it temporarily. I thought about it, hesitated, and still felt that I couldn't tell you."
After finishing speaking, he touched Lux's palm with his little finger, and the latter comprehendly took out what he had thought up five minutes ago: "Wai Ed has always been kind-hearted, and since he made this plan, he feels extremely guilty. Audrey has no confidence in her words. You are also a kind and honest image in his heart, and you are also a father like him. Ed can't bear to let you also bear the shackles of morality and become a ruthless father. To keep you in the dark and resist this matter yourself. I don't feel ashamed to say that from the perspective of my wife, I have always opposed him doing this, but he just won't listen to me. "
Speaking of the Hathaway brothers and sisters, Brett couldn't help but startled for a while, and then exhaled a long breath: "Lingus, you... ah..."
"I thought before I acted that with the tacit understanding between me and Commander Bright, you will definitely not cause any casualties." Ed continued, "You and I also know TurnA's strength. Your rich experience will definitely give an order to withdraw the entire army immediately, so I have never had any worries about the handling of your side."
"Actually, I'm very worried." Lux said with a worried look, "In case of any major casualties, such a close relationship between our two families could easily turn against each other, but Ed kept insisting that Bright Commander, you must be able to handle the situation properly, I still don't believe it. I didn't expect the facts to be as he expected, it seems that my eyes are not very accurate. "
"At the speed of the apostles, if you can't beat them, you can still run away." The muscles at the corners of Bright's mouth trembled slightly, "The apostles look great, but the one-year war is actually more dangerous than encountering the apostles. I have seen many battles. I haven’t seen such a big storm before, I can’t handle such a small scene? Captain Graham also doesn’t listen to the command, there is no need for him to go out, everything is under my control.”
"But I still feel sorry for the losses caused to A-Laws. When I came, I saw that several defense lines of Kilimanjaro were riddled with holes. I am afraid that the ammunition consumption is also very high?" Ed made a distressed look. , "I'm making decisions for His Royal Highness Roland, it's better for Anaheim to fund and sponsor some MS and funds for A-Laws..."
"No need." Bright waved his hand happily, "A major loss shows that the situation is critical and the situation is serious. I just took this opportunity to ask the Federal Parliament for military funding. After this battle, the political situation is likely to change greatly, our right to speak. It is estimated that the tide will rise, and everything will be easier to say then.”
Hearing the word "we", Lux, who had been playing for a long time, finally calmed down and pinched Ed's thumb lightly to remind him that he was done: "Commander Bright, please forgive me for asking ignorantly, even if these There are no more political enemies. Don’t we have to operate in politics? But Ed is not very good at these things, so he will bury his head in scientific research, are you… ?”
"I don't understand this one either. The best person is MIA." Bright shook his head regretfully, "Lingus, what do you think?"
"I think a fragmented government with inefficiency and decentralization is not what we want to see. For what we are and will do in the future, a unified government with strong functions is what we want." Ed tentatively Looking at Bright, "Do you think Prime Minister Mathenas can cooperate? At least in terms of righteousness, his identity is tenable."
"He has the name of the prime minister but has no real power. We hold the military power tightly, and he is weak and has to rely on us." Bright nodded suddenly, "Yes, yes, this idea is very good. I have been hesitating before whether or not to cooperate with Your Excellency the Prime Minister cooperates, or Lingos, you are smart, you can see through the essence of the problem at a glance."
"So we have reached a consensus and settled down?" Lux blinked her big eyes and looked around and smiled brightly, "That's really great! Audrey is quite withdrawn, and she has nothing in school except for Hathaway. A few friends. Although she doesn't say it, I can see that she actually likes Hathaway, but she is too shy and introverted, and she is embarrassed to send a text message. I am still afraid of what happens when Ed and You have a disagreement and quarreled, and the two children can't play together, and now it seems that I'm just worrying about it."
Seeing Lux's innocent look, Brett couldn't help frowning and said to Eddard earnestly: "Lingus, I didn't tell you, don't let a good girl like Lux show her face outside, Especially in such a dirty place in the political circle. She suffered so much in her early years, and it was not easy for you to talk to you when you came together? You didn't see the way those congressmen made things difficult for her today, how could you bear to let her alone The young girl suffers this kind of grievance again?"
Lux covered her mouth with a blushing smile and gave Bright a grateful look.
"Look at me again, Mi Lai was also a good player on the white wooden horse back then. Didn't I ask her to retire from the military immediately after I married her? If Mi Lai hadn't concentrated on taking care of the children at home, Hathaway and his siblings would have been able to educate her. To be so good?" Bright said more and more vigorously, and even his face became ruddy, "Audrey is withdrawn now because you and Lux are too busy with work and have no time to spend with the children. Look at that maid in your house. She is about the same age as a junior high school student, can she know how to take care of children? Do you think so?"
"What you taught me." Ed nodded constantly, "I was usually busy with work and lacked discipline for Audrey, and the maids at home took care of me."
"That is, we adults are so busy and hard now, risking our lives to fight with apostles and politicians, is it not for the people we cherish to live in a better world in the future? If our children are lost, Isn't all these efforts in vain now? Besides—" There was a sudden knock on the door, and Brett shouted impatiently, "Come in!"
"Commander." The adjutant walked in without changing his face. "The statistics of casualties in the shelter have been collected. Except for Senator Rhone who was successfully rescued, all the others were killed. Besides..."
After saying that, he glanced at the Ed and his wife with concern. Ed took Lux and stood up knowingly: "It's not too early, Commander Bright, we'll leave now and get in touch."
After saying goodbye to Bright, Lux took Ed's hand and walked to the tarmac, the corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising: "Ed, I miss it so much."
"Yeah." He and Lux walked silently with their fingers clasped together, warm in their hearts.
"It would be nice if days like this could go on forever." When she came to TurnA's feet while no one was around, Lux suddenly pressed against him and whispered in his ear, "Ed, tonight I want."
"But my body now..."
"Satisfying a wife is a man's basic duty, right?" Lux put her hands behind her back and jumped in front of Ed, her pink glossy hair cascading down her slightly slanted head, blocking her coquettish smile, "I also have needs. Well, if you don't want to use your lower body, you can find a way yourself?"
"You're finally back? It's so slow!" Hearing the voice, Angie stuck her head out from the cockpit above, and Alice was lying on her shoulders, "What are you talking about?"
"Nothing." Lux smiled briskly, "Ed was just thinking about what to eat tonight."
