From Hathaway's point of view, the plot is completely different.
He was determined not to join the army since he was a child, although he knew the particularity of Noah's family, but he did not pay much attention to his father's work in A-Laws. Fortunately, my father is a very open-minded person. He treats him and his sister equally, letting them go according to their own will to practice the way of life they choose.
In middle school, he met Jedo through the matchmaking of Dr. Lingos, who was his father's most solid ally and his most respected elder—though he seemed too young and too unrespectable in his private life. · Asita and joined his Jupiter mining team. Jeduo lived up to the doctor's entrustment, not only taught him his superb MS driving skills, but also taught him many principles of life.
Under the dual influence of Dr. and Jeddo, Hathaway has gradually grown into a moral, ideal, cultural, Disciplined good boy. In general, Hathaway is quite satisfied with his current life, except that he has not successfully caught up with the girl he likes.
Then Minerva's words completely disrupted his worldview.
Is a human who survives even if he loses all self-awareness still human? Are such humans really alive? Does it make any sense to simply survive the brainwashing of others without self? Acknowledging the Ark Project, he believed in the value of free will supremacy since childhood. In his eyes, there is no essential difference between the so-called "plan of destiny" and the destruction of human civilization.
The elders whom he longed for and worshipped suddenly became the great demon king who wanted to destroy the world, and the amiable old father also suddenly became the four kings under the great demon king—the other three, according to his estimation, should be Diana, Haman and Nanali—and The wheel of angels that human beings hope to exist turns out to be an evil super weapon that will destroy the free will of all human beings.
Minerva couldn't lie to him, so the above was definitely not a crazy dream for him, but a reality that he had to face. So the question is, what should we do now
Is it like Minerva's righteousness to expose his father's crimes to the world? Or unite with other people with lofty ideals to form a resistance group to conspire to blow up the wheel of angels? Or go to the moon and confront Dr. Lingos and try to convince him to turn his back? You know, it is always difficult for people to accept the shattering of idols.
Just when he was worried about the confused future, Minerva and Pru left him and ran away quietly. After knowing this fact, he immediately chased after the F97 Gundam that had just been painted. Maybe it was Minerva's tenderness to keep him from getting involved too much, but now Hathaway desperately needs the advice and opinions of girls who are in a similar situation to him.
Fortunately, F97 is a MS specially developed by Dr. Lingos. Although he did not spend much thought on armament, the basic performance of the body itself is extremely excellent. In order to adapt to the size and gravity of Jupiter far exceeding that of the earth, the movement capability and sensor range of F97 completely overwhelm all active MS and battleships today.
It is precisely because of the powerful function of the F97 that Hathaway can successfully catch up with the shuttle that Minerva is riding, and after Minerva is captured, he does not secretly follow without being discovered. And Minerva's NT ability is also far from the doctor's, and he can't find his existence.
When the concentration of Minovsky particles suddenly increased, he realized that someone was conspiring to do something wrong. Since the opponent was aggressive, the combat effectiveness was conservatively estimated to have more than one team. It's not that he didn't think about the hero saving the beauty, but it was too unrealistic to rescue a shuttle with poor combat effectiveness in front of a team of MSs, so he wisely chose to wait for the opportunity.
After a period of time, the troops holding Minerva left the sea and entered the Dakar boundary. Going forward, F97 will be detected by air defense radar, Hathaway stopped the MS and thought quickly.
"Minerva's current identity is ugly as a terrorist, and there are still many political enemies of the Doctor in the parliament. They are likely to use Minerva's identity to make a fuss against the Doctor. In other words, Minerva and Doctors will be in danger." Hathaway took a deep breath, "My doctor must be able to communicate, so now Minerva must be rescued first."
Hathaway stared at the radar screen directly ahead, trying to figure out when to strike. Fortunately, luck seemed to be on his side. At the last moment when Minerva's shuttle disappeared from the sensor range of the F97 Gundam, the MS team, accompanied by the local garrison, changed lanes and flew out of the city. barracks, while the shuttle travels alone to land at the airport on the edge of the city.
"It's now!"
The F97's thrusters were fully open, turning into a long rainbow and heading straight for the Joff International Airport. Minerva and Pru at the end of the horizon had already got off the shuttle, as he expected, and were leaning over into a car. As long as he hijacks Minerva before the local garrison responds in time, he can take advantage of the federal government's stinger on the doctor's daughter...
"...?!"
The sense of crisis in his mind made Hathaway subconsciously control F97 to make an emergency avoidance, and a beam of high-energy particles flew past his eyes. The anti-beam cloak had been exhausted in the battle with the Kshatriya before, and if the cannon hadn't been evaded, it would have crashed on the spot.
"Showing affection with beautiful women right above the city is not something to recommend, Gundam driver." A cheerful male voice rang out on the public frequency, "Isn't this the F97 dedicated to Jupiter? ...ahem, stolen from Dr. Lingus?"
A "huge" MS more than 30 meters high stopped in front of him, and Minerva, who was at the edge of his field of vision, gradually disappeared in the traffic toward the city center. Seeing that the situation was over, Hathaway hammered the armrest of the seat angrily, then immediately gathered his mind and carefully looked at the body in front of him, and began to think about how to get out.
He's Brett Noah's son, and it's unimaginable how much trouble it would bring to his father if he was caught here.
The Gundam-type MS Hathaway in front of him quickly recognized that it was the Penelope, an NT-only machine that Anaheim was commissioned to develop a few years ago. Originally, another Gundam code-named Ξ (Kerxi) was commissioned to develop together, but it was forcibly cancelled by Dr. Lingos for inexplicable reasons such as bad luck.
Penelope Gundam, as an NT special machine, the biggest feature is that its Sekumi system is applied to the missile. The floating missiles hidden under the shoulder armor and skirt armor of the body can receive the NT driver's mental induction control, so as to realize various tricky tactics.
This machine was originally scheduled to be assigned to Captain Mu, who had just awakened as New Type in recent years, but someone's obsession with New Gundam was unreasonable. After experiencing countless hard pleas, Bright finally couldn't help but soften his heart, and designated this NT special machine as a non-NT vehicle for the first time - in this way, the function of the floating missile was completely abolished.
"If it wasn't for him in Kilimanjaro, I don't know if Lingus would have arrived in time, so is it too much for him to say if he doesn't meet this requirement?" Hathaway remembers when his father used to chat at home. Said to him with such a smile, "I'm still not very suitable for Sirocco's role."
"No wonder I reacted so quickly, I can really think of the worst encounter." Hathaway's heart sank, and a thin layer of sweat broke out uncontrollably on the palms of his hands, "Major Aika, it is him. Rotating…”
"What's the matter? Don't you like to talk? It's not a good habit to be silent as a Gundam pilot." Penelope stretched out a beam saber under the small shields on his arms, "Randomly over the city. Shooting is always bad, let's settle it happily with close combat!"
"So fast!"
The huge body of more than 30 meters does not seem to have any effect on Penelope's speed. Almost in the blink of an eye, the beam saber has already arrived, and it is too late to draw the sword at this time. In the nick of time, F97 suddenly turned back with the waist as the center of gravity, and unexpectedly kicked Penelope's forearm with the thermal dagger attached to the sole of the foot.
"I already knew there was this thing!"
Graham dodged the kick lightly, the beam saber turned stab into a slash, and the scissor anchor on F97's front leg was cut off together with the entire front leg before it could deform. Penelope, who completed a series of complex movements between the lights and flint, even had enough strength to grab the front legs of the F97, which almost flew away, so as to avoid such a large piece of metal smashing into the urban area and causing casualties.
"Oh, it's really fast." Graham sighed regretfully as he looked at the direction where F97 took the opportunity to leave, "It's rare to meet an opponent with good skills. Such a humiliating defeat. Father-in-law, father-in-law, why did you come up with such a thing?"
Hathaway didn't know why Major Aika didn't pursue him, but it was a good time to escape anyway, and the F97 ran wildly towards the coastline. As long as Graham Aika, who is the captain, does not take action, Hathaway has full confidence to evacuate safely from the ordinary MS troops.
But things were going in the worst direction for Hathaway, at the next moment without warning.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
The roar didn't make him awake in the slightest, and all the nerves in his body were screaming with trembling. Under the pressure of pure white electric light, his eyeballs could not see anything, and he could not feel anything in his mind except severe pain.
With a buzzing sound, the eardrum ruptured, and something exploded in the center of consciousness. It was only then that Hathaway remembered that Dakar seemed to have added a security device called a "light defense wall"
"Enough! Stop!" Graham roared at the command center. "He has obviously lost his ability to resist. Do you have to electrocute him until he is seven mature?"
The high-voltage power grid finally stopped at Graham's request, and the rigid F97 Gundam stopped functioning and fell to the coastline. After Penelope rushed to the scene, Graham used a sling to descend to the door of the hatch and opened the F97's cockpit with the emergency switch. A slight burnt smell was mixed with the smell of urine.
He took out his pistol and looked into the cockpit, only to see the F97 driver slumped on the ground with his head drooping, seemingly unconscious and unconscious, and the helmet of the driver's suit covered his face so he couldn't see it. Graham carefully helped him take off his helmet, and what appeared under it was the face of a teenager with visibly scalded skin and messy hair.
"Fortunately, the defensive wall stopped in time, and the skin didn't fester. But this young man always feels familiar." Graham pondered for a moment, his pupils suddenly dilated, "... Hathaway?!"
Hours later, Graham, who had completed all the handovers, walked into a high-end bar in downtown Dakar in casual clothes. As a direct descendant of Commander Brett Noah, he was immediately deprived of the command of the MS unit by His Excellency the Prime Minister using an emergency clause that he had never heard of. Report to Commander Bright, Dr. Lingos, or whoever.
Graham, who is not very politically sensitive, was fooled by various routines and couldn't find the north. When he handed over military power, he realized that he seemed to be calculated. Fortunately, Prime Minister Mathenas was still calm, he did not imprison him stupidly, and only sent a few people to monitor his movements, so the relationship between Parliament and A-Laws has not yet been torn apart.
He's not an alcoholic, but he couldn't help but want a drink when he encountered something like today.
"Give me a glass of wine suitable for Virgos." He sat in front of the bar and instructed the bartender, glanced at the "little attendant" not far behind him, and sighed deeply, "Daughter of the doctor, Commander son, ah, the wheel of fortune is turning..."
The bartender, with a service smile on his face, put a glass of juniper in front of him, as if he hadn't heard any complaints he shouldn't have heard.
Half an hour later, the phrase "Daughter of the Doctor, son of the Commander, the wheel of fortune begins to turn", along with countless other sentences, rich or worthless, traveled from all corners of Dakar through encrypted networks. The layers of the transfer were transferred, gathered in a certain server in China, and then after the induction and analysis of several top intelligence experts, a reliable conclusion was submitted to someone.
In the end, Ed, who was far away on the moon, received a text message from Wang Liumei: "Your daughter has been arrested in Dakar."
"Minerva found it, in Dakar." Ed put down his phone and looked around the living room, "Who wants to come with me?"
"I'm still in jail." Lux said without looking up while typing, "I really want to accompany you, but unfortunately there is no way to do it. Will I have a chance to talk about it in twenty-three years?"
"You know that I can't leave the moon because of Villkiss, and you deliberately seduce me with this kind of question." An Qi puffed up her cheeks unhappily, "It's too much, it's too much."
"Ed, I have understood a truth in my long life." CC looked into the distance meaningfully, "It turns out that as long as I participate in your affairs, I will definitely help more and more, until I fall into the bottomless abyss, and finally It's up to you or Lux or An Qi to save the scene. So I decided that I don't care about anything for the rest of my life. Besides, I've raised you for so many years, so it's your turn to raise me, right?"
Only Taoxiang blinked her big eyes eagerly, but Ed shook his head cruelly at her. Without her, I don't know what CC and Angie would have done at home, and Lux, who was addicted to coding every day and couldn't help herself, couldn't count on it.
"Me! Me!" Alice raised her hand excitedly, "I'm going with Ed!"
"Then Alice and I will go with you." Ed stood up and walked to the second floor, "Let's go as soon as I pack up."
While walking, Ed picked up his mobile phone and sent Wang Liumei back a message, but the text was deleted and deleted, changed and changed, but it was not sent out for a long time. Just when the screen stopped at "Liumei, why don't I owe you a favor", and just when the send button was pressed, Wang Liumei sent another message.
"No money, no favors, only time, Dr. Lingos has to keep his word." The screen of the mobile phone displayed, "If you don't want those photos and videos to be seen by your women ( laugh)."
