"Please wait"

Familiar summer days, familiar concrete corners, and familiar green public telephones.

After waiting for a long time, the call was finally connected.

"What's the matter?" The man pretended to be ruthless.

"That school is going to hold a seminar for advancement, and the teacher wants us to tell the parents." Shinji was a little nervous.

"Didn't I leave all these things to Katsuragi?" He was afraid that Lao Ying said.

"Didn't I leave all these things to Katsuragi?! Don't call me about such trivial things! Don't come to me if you have nothing to do!" Good fellow, what are you afraid of? Shinji was very sad.

"--Do you think I would say that?" On the other side of the phone. There was a laugh that Lao Ying had almost never uttered, "Come in a while."

The phone seemed to be cut off by someone. Stopped abruptly.

"Huh?" Only Shinji's face was dumbfounded.

at the same time

Inside the elevator, the indicator screen that originally displayed the floor suddenly went black, and then the cabin plunged into darkness.

"Eh?"

"The power went out?" Jiaji looked at the light overhead.

"How could it be impossible—" Misato's words continued, but the next scene. Let her stop.

The elevator switched to a red light-now using the built-in emergency power supply.

"It's weird, is there an accident?" Misato also looked up at the red light.

"Is there something wrong with Akagi's experiment?" Jiaji didn't seem to know this. It seems that this matter has nothing to do with the hidden spy of SEELE.

————————————————————————————————————————————

The zero machine running experiment site.

The unit label on the display disappeared little by little from left to right, from top to bottom.

"The main power supply stopped working and the voltage was zero." Maya reported.

The green light shining on Ritsuko's face made people unable to understand her emotions.

Everyone was panicked.

"I didn't do it?" Her tone was a little guilty. It was obvious that after the previous order to cut off the power of the zero machine, such an accident happened when it was restarted, which made it difficult for her to prove that it was not her own pot.

"Thick—? It's hard to say." Jiaji's tone was teasing.

"Don't worry, the reserve power supply will be connected soon."

————————————————————————————————————————————

The issuing room.

"No, I can't connect to the reserve power." Aoba said the attempt failed.

"Is there no available line?" Dongyue felt very annoying.

"Yes, the power supply level is 1.2%. It is the old line after No. 2567." An unknown female employee below replied.

"Give priority to all power to MAGI and the final dogma district!"

Liu Ling rushed in in a hurry. "Deputy Commander, what's going on. Why is it suddenly out of power!"

"We don't know. Almost all the power systems are paralyzed-and the reserve power supply is also." Dongyue smiled bitterly.

"Wait, if there is a low-level power supply, we are not without it." Liu Ling suddenly laughed, "Isn't the'entropy' still in Gnakuli to accumulate dust? There are also recent installations in various parts of the base. SEG emergency power supply unit——"

"Qingye! Send someone to do it!" Dongyue immediately understood Liu Ling's meaning and began to arrange.

"Yeah. But I didn't expect that the technology used to develop the E plan would still be so useful." Liu Ling scratched his head, feeling deeply.

This time, it was really thanks to this young man. It turned out that his ability was so great, no wonder Old Ding trusted him so much. Dongyue secretly gave Liu Ling a compliment in her heart.

The third new Tokyo city, ground area

"Ms. Misato is so lazy. Take your own clothes to wash and get them yourself!" Having said that, Hyuga, who thinks of Misato as her dream lover, is not at all unhappy, standing holding a large bag of clothes. Wait for the red light at the crossroads.

"Huh?" Why did the signal light go out?

————————————————————————————————————————————

"It is estimated that Commander Ikari is really busy, right?" Asuka explained.

"Really? But I really don't think it's like a normal hang-up," Shinji became more suspicious as he listened. "Should something go wrong?"

Don't have anything to do in the base!

"Really, a big man, don't pay too much attention to these details!" Asuka's tone looked disgusting, but her face was relieved.

The mind of the fool Shinji finally became more delicate.

Ayanami and Sister Yu looked at them, and smiled lightly

"Huh" swiped his card through the NERV gate.

"Are?" The door didn't open.

Ayanami came to try it too-it still didn't open.

"What are you doing so slowly! Let me come!" Asuka pushed her mother-in-law away (laughs). Swipe the card——

Still not open.

Asuka stared at the door for a while, choosing to fry the hair.

"Wow! This door is broken!" Stomped his feet. **** off.

EmergencyGate17

A group of workers used the Holy Sword of Physics (crowbar) to open the emergency door, but they fell to the ground due to excessive force.

Ritsuko pulled up one of them. He was pulling up the other two, and five of them walked forward around a candle.

"Anyway, hurry up and go to the power station-the power supply has not been restored for seven minutes!"

————————————————————————————————————————————

elevator

"It doesn't seem to be a small incident." Miri poked at the emergency panel (three-throw electric switch), but there was no response.

"What's the matter with the power supply here?" Kaji asked.

"There should be three sets of power systems, the main, the auxiliary, and the preparation. It is incredible that they failed at the same time." Misato stood up, unable to understand.

There was a dignified look in Jia Chi's eyes.

SEELE has already begun to doubt, use power off to know the weakness of NERV

"This is not so much the power company opening the gate, as it is someone deliberately doing it?" Lao Ting's eyes were a bit solemn. "I bet there will be an apostle invasion—"

"Unidentified object found! The scheduled landing place is near the old Atami!"

"This guy is the eighth, right?"

————————————————————————————————————————————

Fuchu, fighting from the general headquarters

"It looks like an apostle?"

"How to do?"

"Now issue an alert."

"Anyway, this guy's goal is the third new city of Tokyo."

"That said, it has nothing to do with us."

————————————————————————————————————————————

The spider climbed diligently from the sea to the ground, feeling very good. The speed of action is much faster.

"The apostle has landed and is still moving."

A certain vertical channel of NERV.

"I always thought that the ladder was a decoration from the last era, but I didn't expect it would be used." Ritsuko complained while moving forward with both hands and feet.

"Well, be prepared for it."

Ritsuko and Ibuki continued to climb up.

————————————————————————————————————————————

Pressing, there is no response.

"It's weird, all the devices are not responding." Asuka said she couldn't understand.

"Isn't there something going on down there?" She continued to doubt.

"You said, could it be—the power went out?"

Alright Shinji, you are the truth.
