Princess Marina drove around in Dakar for a whole day, thinking about what she said after seeing Kovatro tomorrow. Kovatro is rumored to be able to speak well and to be clever, but she is very self-aware, and she has no confidence in persuading the other party, and some are just determination.

Earlier, after the meteor fell, I heard an explosion from a distance, and the official did not give any explanation. I don’t know what happened. What is visible to the naked eye is that a lot of police officers have been added to the surface to maintain order, and even those in military uniforms have been mixed in.

When the sun was going down, Marina decided to return to the embassy. Halfway through the car, a young man in a cloak passed her car. The breeze from the car's high-speed driving opened a corner of the hood, revealing the iconic Middle Eastern face inside.

"Compatriot?!" Marina, who met her family in a foreign country by accident, was surprised and immediately overjoyed and said to the driver, "Go back! That young man just now!"

When Marina got out of the car, she happened to see the compatriot in the cloak being stopped by a few officers dressed up, and a blond youth headed by him was interrogating him: "Juvenile, please show your identification."

The teenager asked kept his head down and said nothing.

"Mr. Officer, please wait a moment!" Marina hurried forward, "This person is with us."

"This beautiful lady, A-Laws is performing official duties. I am Captain Graham Aika of Lund Bell's Special Operations Force." The blond young man tilted his head slightly and gestured for his epaulettes, casting his sharp eyes on Come, "Excuse me, are you?"

Marina's entourage immediately showed Captain Graham the documents of the embassy to prove her identity. Only then did the prince have the opportunity to take a good look at the young man in the cloak. The boy's hood has been forcibly taken off, and the recognition of his face and skin color is too high. There is no doubt that he belongs to her tribe. However, I don't know why, the boy's face and hair are covered with dust and sand, and he can't really look exactly.

"As you can see, this young man was an entourage I brought, but he just left halfway." Marina said nonsense, "Mr. Captain, can we go now?"

"Sorry, performing official duties is performing official duties." Captain Graham didn't look straight at the beauty in front of him, turned and looked at the cloaked guy again, "Boy, ultimatum, please show your identification."

Now Marina is helpless, the other party's meaning is very obvious, you have no human rights in a small country like you, if you don't accept it, you can complain. The opponent's military rank is not low, and it is a special force, she really can't force them to keep them.

"It's a pity, boy, now I have to suspect that you were involved in a terrorist attack and need you to go back with us to assist in the investigation." Graham waved to the person behind him, "Take him—"

"Captain!" One of the soldiers interrupted him embarrassingly with a mobile phone. "Mr. Kovatro's call said that it was urgent."

"That guy..." Graham sighed and took the phone with an uncomfortable expression. "Yes, it's me... well, that's right... what? Why? It's unreasonable!... It's obeying orders, I know... Okay. , I see...bye."

Graham, who hung up the phone and returned the phone to his subordinates, looked at Marina reluctantly, dropped the sentence "You can take him away" and turned away neatly.

"What he just said was Mr. Covatro?" Marina's heartbeat seemed to miss a beat. "Is it cleared? Is there hope for this time?"

But anyway, the most important thing at the moment is to take the teenager away, for fear of change.

The young man in the cloak seemed to be unconscious for some reason, and ignorantly followed her back to the embassy. With the help of the staff in the embassy, ​​the teenager changed into clean clothes, cleaned his head and face, revealing a beautiful face, and then was invited by Marina to the meeting room.

"You are also from Azadistan?" The prince said cheerfully, "I didn't expect to meet the same clan in Dakar. Can you tell me your name?"

"I don't know." The boy replied indifferently, "Suna·F·Qingying."

Marina thought for a while before reacting, and the other party's two sentences were used to answer two questions: "Why don't you know? You look like an Azadistan?"

"Not necessarily, such as..." A word popped out of Susuna's mind, "...Kurgis?"

"But Kulkis has perished in the One Year War." Marina immediately retorted, "You look like only sixteen or seventeen. At that time, you were less than ten years old, right?"

"It was destroyed by Azadistan!" Mossina roared uncontrollably, and after speaking, he suddenly covered his forehead with one hand, his eyebrows were painfully tangled together, and at the same time, he snorted.

"What's wrong with you?" Marina asked worriedly, "Do I need to call a doctor?"

"No." Setsuna took a few deep breaths to calm down, "Can you tell me how Kurkis died?"

The worry on Marina's face did not disappear, but she nodded and slowly said: "During the One Year War, the Federation always tried to open up the battlefield with PLANT in countries that did not join the Federation. This is how Kulgis did. Was caught in the flames of war. Although the Kurgis offensive and defensive battle was won by the heroic performance of Lieutenant Amuro Ray, but—"

"Amuro Ray?" The picture of the MS in the sunset flashed back in his mind again, "That is, Gun...dam?"

"Yes, it's Gundam, what's the matter?" Marina looked at it for an instant with some surprise, and she continued without receiving an answer, "But Kulges has become dilapidated in the war, and the government is unable to assume its functions. , It was eventually merged by Azadistan. But Azadistan was unable to feed that much population, and some war refugees were absorbed by other countries, such as Britania."

"Sophistry," said Shi Na gritted his teeth, "everything you talk about is sophistry for wars of aggression, population trading, and the exchange of interests between countries."

"I know it's sophistry, but everything in the past has happened, and we can't do anything." Marina looked at Shina sternly, "All I can do is try to make all the people live a better life, let the original Kur The Gith people can also have a sense of identity with the country. The reason why I am here now is to apply for assistance from the federal. With assistance, we can develop science and technology and popularize education."

"Developing technology?" Setsuna couldn't help but ask, "Azadistan's MS still uses batteries?"

"That's because part of the royal family has a prejudice against Dr. Minovsky, thinking that he ruined our good life..." Marina said that she even felt that the reason was too shameful, and she embarrassed her to speed up her speech. But it will be corrected! I will convince them that a country without technology has no future!"

"It will persuade, that is, it has not been persuaded yet." Shi Na snorted coldly, "What you said is all fantasy, meaningless, and impossible to do at all."

"I know it's difficult, and there is a lot of domestic resistance, but what about it?" Marina said firmly, "If you can't do it, try again. If you fail, try again. Until you succeed, even if you can't succeed, you have to try again. Continue to work towards success. As long as you work hard, whether the Federation or Azadistan, you will be able to understand each other in the end!"

"You are the standard daydreamer, as Miss Luxe said..." Susuna frowned again, and her wrist twitched slightly from the spasm. "...Miss Luxe?"

"Do you know Lux himself?" Marina saw a dazed face from the moment, "It's the big star, who later married Dr. Lingoes. You asked Dr. Lingoes? Dr. Lingoes was the one who invented Gundam. Human, and Gundam is the mobile suit that was drove by Lieutenant Amuro Lei in the One Year War and showed his skills in the offensive and defensive battle of Kurgis, as I just said."

"Miss Lacus? Dr. Lingoes? Amuro Ray? Gundam?" Countless threads were tangled in the mind of an instant, and thousands of fragments flashed back uninterruptedly. After a long time, they finally settled in such a familiar picture. In the picture, it was a boy under ten years old looking up at Gundam in the sunset, "I am... Solan Ibrahim?"

After speaking, he fainted.

…

The next day, Ed and his wife Lux were invited to Kare.

Although Ed has repeatedly emphasized the need to keep a low profile and refrain from propaganda to the federal side, Xia deliberately made things known throughout the city. After getting off the plane, the couple drove to the embassy of the Lunar Government in Dakar. Countless extras who had been arranged in advance separated the roads and looked at each other.

"Ed, in fact, you don't need to force them to rush back." Lux in the back of the car leaned on Ed and said softly, "I don't care, really."

"I care." Ed took hold of her weak boneless hand, "Although this is a little bit so for me, visits and travel are still different, I don't want to embarrass you. And that, let's be honest. , Did not have a good impact on my international image."

"Do you still know that you have an international image?" Lacus smiled and gave him a blank look. "You can now take out your phone and enter your name in the search engine to see what are the top ten most searched items?"

"Ed Ed, I found it!" Alice yelled in his head, "Wow! Wow! Wow~! Do you want to know?"

"I don't want to know, thank you." Ed replied to two people at the same time, guiltyly tightening Lux's hand, "By the way, you will stay in the embassy later and I will go alone. I want to meet...Covatro of."

"Now that I have used this kind of careful thinking to please me, you really are... let me say what you are?" Lacus sighed leisurely, "I just enjoy it."

"Then I will continue to work harder?"

"Yeah." Laksy replied softly, leaning her head on his shoulder, "Ed, the apostle has come out, what do you think we will become in the end?"

"I don't know." Somehow, he suddenly thought of Lao Yang from Heaven, "But I've worked so hard. It's not too much to give a happy reunion, right?"

"Reunion...?" Lacus reached out and touched the hairpin, "I also like reunion, so I will try my best."

There have been countless remarks in Lacus's words. If Ed can't hear it, it is not because of low EQ but mental retardation, but what can he say? Is it impossible to tie her up to force a confession?

"I believe in you." He can only repeat the first promise she made when she first showed her heart on that deserted island, "I believe in you."

Lux said nothing, and soon the car arrived at the embassy. Just as Ed and the officials of the embassy were chatting, Lux's cell phone rang suddenly. She took out her mobile phone and looked at it, apologized politely, and calmly walked to the side and pressed the answer button, muttering indistinctly what she was talking about.

After completing the handover with the embassy staff, Lacus just hung up and walked towards Ed, with a relaxed smile on her face: "Kagali asked me to bring her and the children some specialties, Ed, I can Do you want to go shopping in the city center?"

"Of course you can, just pay attention to safety." Ed readily agreed, "Then I'll go to the Federation first. See you tonight?"

Lacus raised her neck and kissed him gently on the cheek, smiled and said, "See you tonight."

Back in the car alone, Ed took out his mobile phone to check the time, and closed his eyes in pain: "It's early morning on the moon, Lux...what serious happened to you that made you commit such a low-level mistake? "

Twenty minutes later, Ed arrived at the administrative building of the Federal Headquarters. Char, in a suit and leather shoes, personally received him at the front entrance of the building, with a sincere smile on his face. Ed also put on a formulaic smirk immediately, and entered the building side by side with him.

"I heard that Minerva was sent back to the moon by you?" Xia asked with her throat as she walked, "Lingos, in order to prevent our father and daughter from seeing each other, you must be too obvious, right?"

"I don't know if there will be a second wave in the city that has only been attacked by monsters. If you want Minerva to stay in this place, I have nothing to say." Ed gave him a disdainful look. "The mouse is short-sighted. , Inadequacy and conspiracy."

Xia stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile back: "Okay, okay, Dr. Lingoes is still as eloquent as ever. This alone is better than Dr. Ioliya and Dr. Minovsky. I know where the height goes."

"Where is it, it's far behind the'deceased' Char Aznab." Ed Needle pointed to Maimangdi, "It can wash away the frenzied behavior of throwing satellites into the future of all mankind. I still have to learn this kind of high-end skill that refers to the white and insists on the black, and even makes me lame."

The two talked and walked, and soon came to the door of the conference room. Xia gave Ed an ambiguous smile when he was about to push the door. I intend to show you the sincerity of the Federation."

After speaking, he pushed open the door of the conference room. A beautifully dressed woman was standing in the middle of the room uncomfortably, her face full of generous expressions of giving up her life.

"I'll introduce you." Xia stretched her arms and pointed at the beautiful woman in the middle of the meeting room. "This is the Queen Marina of the Kingdom of Azadistan."

Hearing the name of his acquaintance, Ed can't help but look at it more. The woman called Marina has a beautiful appearance, a firm expression, and naturally has a style that is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Xia stared closely at Ed's eyes, and the sarcasm on her face became more intense.

"What do you mean?" Edd's face was cold, and he asked sharply, "I thought we were here to talk about the apostles today?"

"Oh? It seems I misunderstood." Xia raised an eyebrow. "I thought Dr. Lingoes was a hero who would take his three wives and four concubines to sleep with his daughter when traveling?"

"So you disgusted me about this from start to finish?" Ed looked at the bewildered Marina, then at the self-satisfied Chara, and finally converged into one sentence with a swear word, "What a breath. Small man!"
