Not Super Robot Wars at All

Chapter 54: Surprised or not surprised

Views:

Sirocco had a very uncomfortable feeling, as if someone was testing the edge of his perception, passing by where he was about to see but couldn't see. But this kind of thing is unscientific. No matter how strong the NT ability is, it can't be done. He decisively attributed it to an illusion.

"Then Your Excellency Rheinford, as the biggest sponsor of the Titans, what's the matter with you bypassing Commodore Heyman and looking for a school officer like me directly?" Siroc sat down opposite Rheinford in a humble manner, "The ugly words are there. Up front, I am loyal to Brigadier General Heyman, and I will tell him what happened here afterwards."

"What did Major Siroc say? The major is trusted by the brigadier general. In my mind, looking for a major is the same as finding a general." Rheinford picked up a stack of documents and handed it to Siroc, "You might as well take a look first. this."

Siroc took the document and started to read, and the room passed in silence for a few minutes: "Your Excellency Brigadier General gave you what Amuro Ray asked for... MS that expands the possibilities of new human beings? It is necessary for me, the new human, to personally To be a guinea pig?"

"Just kidding, how can an elite like a major be so wasteful?" Rheinford took out another document and handed it out, which contained the information of a teenager, "We have already found the guinea pig, whether it is NT quality or driver's quality. The quality is impeccable. What we need is the major's talents as a top developer, of course, if the major is willing to give advice in the field of new human beings, I also welcome it."

"This is Captain Widan's son? Shameless man." Siroc sneered, "As long as Brigadier General Hyman agrees with me, helping important sponsors is also one of the duties of the Titans."

"As long as Major Siroc nods, I will explain it in person, Brigadier General. At least this time, we can walk on the moon, in Anaheim, and in front of Lingos." The person relaxed and his tone was much lighter, "By the way, I wonder if the major has seen the latest news? Britannia rejected the political asylum application of the Aube government in exile."

"Although the old emperor is old, he is not stupid, and he will not swim in this muddy water. Even if he is really stupid, Schneider is not stupid." Siroc put the information in his hand back on the low table in front of him. " Yamato isn't stupid either, knowing that if he stays any longer, his wife won't be able to keep him, so he runs quite fast."

"But even though the earth is big, there is no place for them." Reinford leaned against the sofa casually, "Maybe this time, the trash of the Federation will finally succeed? I tried my best to save it, I almost forced Princess Marina to commit suicide last time, but I didn’t get started, and it’s very difficult for the big people to face it.”

"Isn't it still possible to run to the sky?" Siroc raised his eyebrows, "Prince Roland is a decent person, and he is not afraid of the wastes of the Federation. Do we still have to fight the monsters on the moon for the disgusting desires of the wastes? ?"

"Prince Luo... Lan." Reinford's body stiffened for a moment, "Yes, the prince is very upright, gentle and kind. Unlike the trash of the Federation, he might accept political asylum."

With Sirocco's keen intuition, he immediately discovered that there was a big problem between Rheinford and Roland. But there is no need to say it, this useful information can be silently memorized.

"Is there anything else?" He deliberately made a look that he couldn't wait to leave. "Once again, I need to report the content of the conversation just now to Brigadier General Hyman."

"It's okay, if the major is so busy, please take care of yourself. You can walk slowly." Rheinford watched Siroc get up, and suddenly stopped him when he was about to reach the door, "Actually, Your Excellency Hyman is so old, Some things can't be done by hand, and the major is the right-hand man of the brigadier general, so he has to take the initiative to carry more burdens."

Sirocco looked at him blankly, without answering, and strode out of the room.

"Dr. Lingos, this Jiegang is the latest achievement of your company." Bright pointed to Anaheim's latest product catalogue that has not yet been released. This catalogue for internal circulation is one of the sincerity of this side of the moon. , "But there is no price and configuration, what are the benefits?"

The Lund Bell team's budget is pitiful, and even if the prototype machine that was promised before is sold to them at the cost price, it is a lot of expense. Therefore, Captain Bright must personally go out and plan carefully for things like the purchase of mass-produced machines, so as not to spend a penny.

Captain Bright is the youngest colonel in the Federation. He is in charge of military affairs, financial affairs, and occasionally internal affairs. Ed felt that he had a forty-year-old face even though he was in his mid-thirties, probably because he was worrying too much.

"The reason why there is no price and configuration is because the configuration of this model is divided into high and low configuration." Ed took out another promotional material to show it, "This is a brand-new design that you have not seen before, low configuration and low energy. To Jim II, the high-end equipment can be made into more than half of the Gundam, and there are several grades to choose from. The body is also equipped with a number of general plug-in interfaces, and dozens of equipment can be combined and matched at will. More importantly, it is extremely difficult to upgrade and modify, as long as you add money Immediately lower the allocation and increase the allocation, eliminating the cost of repurchasing.”

An upgradeable, easy-to-modify, set-and-forget structure like Jiegang's Ed has been wanting to do it for a long time. I have done so many Gundams before, changed many different skeleton designs, and have been accumulating experience. Even silver mines are, to put it bluntly, the result of a pile of patents and funds. Of course, there are many technical highlights, but they are not as powerful as banknotes. And this time, Jie Gang was successfully brought out, and it was even better than the universality in memory, which gave Ed a kind of feeling that what he had learned was fully integrated, and it was very meaningful to return to the basics.

"Wonderful, wonderful." Bright was obviously knowledgeable, his eyes lit up and he nodded again and again, "So, where can I buy it?"

"Sorry, this is not for sale for the time being." Ed put away Jiegang's brochure silently, "After a while, we will consider giving priority to reputable partners for purchase."

Speaking of which, Bright also understood and did not continue to ask.

Today is the last day of the exchange visit. The itinerary and schedule of the cooperation have been set in the first two days. Today's goal is to look forward to the future. In fact, it's mainly Ed's advertising, telling Lund Bell that we have so many good things that even a lot of money can't buy them. By the way, let Bright once again realize how poor he is, so as to lay the groundwork for earning extra money from private work in the future.

As for taking private work, is it against military discipline? Of course no one cares, and the Titans wouldn't get that much sponsorship if they just took the money and didn't do anything.

Happy hours always pass quickly. After having lunch on Akama, Ed and his party will go to the moon, and it is estimated that they will be able to go home for dinner in the afternoon.

Amuro is still very worried about his condition. Although Ed hates taking a step by step, this time he really has no choice.

Although Mu was very easy-going, Ed still didn't get to know him well for only two or three days, and he didn't communicate much.

There is also Pumu. At first, I wanted to go to Graham to settle accounts for the V2 matter. As a result, the two people actually sympathized with each other. Besides Gundam, it is also a common common topic to complain about Turlington. Now that it's time to part, the two are still a little reluctant to part.

"Dr. Lingos, there is something I want to trouble you with at the end." Bright came over with a large pile of things when he parted, "There are many fans of the Doctor in the Lund Bell team, who can help sign the poster on the poster. name?"

"No problem, everyone has worked hard on the ship. I will definitely do this." Ed took the poster and took a closer look. "Wait, my poster?! There are several different ones?!"

"Of course there is, it's from Anaheim, and it sells well in the army." Urumi looked right, "There are five regular editions and one limited edition, the limited edition is hard to find, I'm here for Doctor. You'll have to go to Anaheim in person after here. Not to mention posters, there's — er, all kinds of stuff online."

Ed silently signed his own poster, feeling extremely complicated. He remembered that he seemed to have licensed the image rights to Anaheim, and he also received some copyright revenue every year. But he has too many patents and copyrights, and he has never read the details one by one. I didn't expect to have my own poster, I always feel inexplicably ashamed.

On the way back, Ed looked at Pu Mu seriously in the cabin: "Hong, I hope you tell the truth. Besides posters, what else is there on the Internet?"

Pumu looked around, scratching his head and scratching his head for a long time, but he couldn't match Ed's eyes, and finally said in a low voice, "Doctor, you probably don't read comics very much, but do you know that there is a comic image called Ji Niang?"

"… I know." There was a very bad feeling, very bad.

"It was the RX-78-2 Gundam machine girl that became popular at first, and then various types of MS have corresponding machine girls. Anaheim has promoted you as a model, and everyone knows that many MS are doctors. It was designed, and you, Doctor, and the machine girls corresponding to these MSs..." Pu Mu closed his eyes and gave up on himself, "There are books."

Ed was about to spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"The subject of weak young designers and machine girls is very popular, and your image is also very good, doctor." Pumu still said to himself, "Most of them are pure love and bad morals, but occasionally There will also be ZAFT's body intruding into the NT—"

"Stop!" Ed touched his heart and felt that he couldn't bear it anymore. "Enough is enough, don't say more, I don't need to know more details."

The atmosphere that followed was a bit awkward, and everyone didn't speak much.

Afraid of another accident on the road, Jin Karam drove at full speed and soon reached the moon. After disembarking, Ed thanked Jin Karam and sent Alice back to Gnaku first, and then Uragi drove home. Originally, he planned to invite Pu Mu to eat at home today, but it was too early, and it was still a long time before dinner, so just think about it.

In addition to reporting the situation to Roland and Diana tomorrow, there is one more thing to deal with. Cagalli offered the lunar government an expression of political asylum. After Roland accepted it, Aub and his entourage ran all night without saying a word. They set off from the space port in Britannia and arrived at the moon in the early morning of the same day, but they have been left to dry up until now. on.

It was inconvenient for the Roland couple to appear in person, and they knew that Ed happened to have an affair with Kira and Cagalli, and hoped that he could contact him to see how much trouble it would cause and how much benefit it would bring. It was announced to the public that Minister Lingos was entrusted to be solely responsible for the contact with Aub, and to discuss the introduction and absorption of relevant technical talents such as Shuguang Club. Although Roland is kind-hearted, he is responsible for the moon after all, and there is still some awareness that a ruler should have, but Ed feels that he is more and more like the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

By the way, I have to thank Lux, do you want to buy a gift? After hesitating for a while, Ed decided to give up. He didn't know what to buy at all. It would be good to thank him verbally.

At this point, it is not yet time for get off work, there are no cars on the road, and the road is unobstructed. When he was about to get home, Ed's eyesight was as sharp as that of an adjuster, and he noticed that someone seemed to come out of his house? Then hurried away in the other direction. Pumu's eyesight was not as good as his, so he couldn't see clearly.

By the time the car drove to the door of the house, the man was already far away, and the back was a thin man with brown hair, 1.7 meters tall... Kira Yamato

There's nothing to panic, Korean dramas have fixed episodes, they look alike, I'm wrong, misunderstanding, you listen to me and I don't listen, he can't be more clear. But for some reason, my heart was beating fast, and my chest was a little tight.

Saying goodbye to Pumu, Ed opened the door and went in. There were obvious signs of someone coming in the living room. No, there should be traces of guests at home, and things haven't had time to clean up.

He stared at the living room for a while, trying to deduce a conclusion in his favor, when the door to his bedroom—now Lux's—opened suddenly. Lux came out in a private suit and saw him with a surprised expression: "Why did you get back so early today?"

What do you mean? ! What is it that you got back so early? !

At this moment another person appeared in the door: "Lux, what's the matter? Ah, Dr. Lingos, you're back. I'm sorry to disturb you without saying hello beforehand."

"...Huh?" He watched Cagalli suddenly appear, and felt that his always smug mind couldn't turn around, "Oh, hello..."

"Ed, I just happened to be looking for you." Lux pulled him to the side, and whispered in a voice that only two people could hear, "There are guests here, don't be in a daze."

"No, neither can you—"

"I sent you a text message this morning." Lux's voice sounded with a hint of joy, "Is the phone out of battery?"

"Seems to be… "

"Go wash your face." The girl pushed him into the bathroom, and finally couldn't help laughing happily, "Your face is as dark as Prince Roland~"
