Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 724 The Last Twelve Hours (Part )

"Hello, hello, Lux is in a daze~"

The chubby little pinkie changed direction three times in a zero-gravity environment and finally stopped steadily in Lux's hand. Many crew members, including DaCosta, secretly glanced in the direction of the sound. This spontaneous behavior was not mixed with desire, but was simply due to the natural human instinct to appreciate beautiful things.

"Da Costa, how long will it take us to reunite with the First Fleet?"

"At the current rate, it will take at most three hours."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Outside the side were the Neo Agama and three Nazca-class ships. In addition to leaving Bartfield in the Spring City to prevent a sudden attack from the remnants of Senator Harry, Lacus's group brought almost all of PLANT's high-end combat power. All of the pilots started at the lowest level of red, and most of them were veterans who survived the two world wars.

But this move also brought Lux a lot of criticism. PLANT was really fed up with the days of being like a frightened bird. If it weren't for the fact that Bakilulu left most of her main forces to garrison the L4 space domain before leaving, the Council would never allow Lacus to spend all her money to support the People's Revolutionary League.

"I'm going to make some preparations. I'll leave the bridge to you for now."

After a brief explanation, Lacus tiptoed off the bridge. Da Costa was not surprised by this. After all, according to the intelligence copied by the People's Revolutionary League, the Strike Force Freedom was currently in a confrontational situation in Genesis. In addition, among the people they were going to meet soon, Aslan was present. He could more or less understand Lacus's mentality of not wanting to show her haggard side.

After avoiding the sight from the bridge, Lux returned to her room. Taking advantage of the gravity environment of the living area, she fell directly on the bed, letting the little pinky jump around beside her.

"Hello, sing, sing~"

"Sorry, Pinkie, I can't do that today."

Facts have proved that when outsiders can see that Lux is in a bad state, it means that the pressure she is under at the moment has exceeded the limit she can bear.

After all, Lacus is also a human being, and her heart is not strong enough to be indestructible. Even though she made an agreement with Siegfried in the quantum space to save the world/Kira together, she still felt a little helpless when Strike Freedom appeared on the opposite side of her for the first time.

"Hello, let's sing, let's sing~"

Pinky continued to jump back and forth in the room. Ever since Siegfried had tinkered with her and upgraded her twice in Berlin, Lux had reason to suspect that guy had transferred his own Black Hello personality system to Pinky, because since then Pinky had not only become much more lively, but sometimes also showed a rebellious feeling that caught Lux off guard.

"I said it all today"

"I'll sing, if you don't mind."

Lux stood up and looked towards the door. Mia was holding Little Pink in one hand and looking at her with a smile. There was also a Haro rolling restlessly at her feet. Although its color was not as bright as Little Pink, it was also covered with the classic skin color of the Haro family.

"Sorry, I meant to knock, but it seems you forgot to lock the door."

Mia sat down gently beside Lux's bed and thought for a while, "What should I sing? Ah, I got it~"

If you want to find it back,

Then parting is to meet again.
I will definitely see you again after we say goodbye.】

The pleasant singing voice spread out like flowing water. Lux knew that the song was the famous Tomorrow. More than 60% of ordinary people in the Rio Miracle of Light had heard this song which was originally only sung on the Island of Dawn. It was also thanks to this miraculous resonance that Mia was able to return to the stage she loved with the new image of 'Shirley'.

At the same time, she is also a living advertisement for the People's Revolutionary League's 'first artificial reformer'. For this purpose, Mina has invested a considerable amount of manpower and material resources in order to make Mia a star figure among the reformers.

Mia's attitude towards this gradually changed from rejection at the beginning to acceptance. Not long ago, she visited PLANT on behalf of the People's Revolutionary League. After hearing that Genesis was hijacked, she directly persuaded Lux ​​to let her take the Eternity to reunite with the Celestials.

"How is it? You used to heal others with your singing. Now it's your turn to be healed by singing. Does it feel different?"

"."

Perhaps because they once shared the same identity, Lux did not put on a formal smile in front of Mia. Instead, she continued to curl up on the bed in a childish manner. Seeing this, Mia did not say much, but gently stroked Lux's back.

"Thanks."

"I should be the one thanking you. After all, I've used your identity and appearance for so long, and I never thought I could get your forgiveness." The slightly stiff courtesy was followed by a moment's silence. Mia's little green was obviously not as lively as little pink, and the whole room seemed to become a little quiet for a while.

"Well, I'll tell you a little secret, but first you have to promise not to get angry after hearing it."

Although she didn't get a clear answer, Lux's ears were obviously shaking slightly. Mia secretly sighed that Lux Klein was just a little girl, and at the same time she opened her mouth and dropped a bombshell.

"I'm sorry that I used your semblance to kiss Siegfried in the armory."

“Hey!!!”

Mia's words were like a drop of cold water in a frying pan, making Lux visibly come alive. Her long pink hair set off the girl's blushing cheeks. Although she knew that Mia had a crush on Siegfried, no third person knew about that little episode in the armory incident. Now that Mia had said it bluntly, especially when she thought about the fact that the other party had used her own face at the time, Lux felt for the first time that her words were so pale and powerless.

"Really kissed?"

"Yeah, we really kissed each other. We agreed not to get angry!"

"what!!!"

She fell backwards again while holding Harrow in her arms. The person who appeared in front of Mia at this moment was not the eldest daughter of the Klein family or the candidate for the next Speaker of the House. The girl's shyness and curiosity did not feel out of place on Lux.

"Mia."

"Ok?"

"In exchange, I'll tell you a secret."

"All ears."

"In fact, when I learned about Siegfried's life story in Berlin, for a few seconds I realized that I was blaming my mother in my heart."

While telling her own secret, Lux bent down and picked up Mia's Hello from the ground. Perhaps she sensed the presence of a kindred spirit, and the little pinkie became extremely quiet, which was extremely rare. Then Lux's tone became a little profound, and the fermented girl's thoughts slowly shed their gray shell and gradually became colorful.

"I kept thinking, if my mother hadn't given up, I would have had a younger brother. Then I could have acted like a sister. Of course, a brother would be better. Siegfried would definitely be a good brother."

"Lux"

The wounds caused by the death of her parents have never healed, so Lux has an obsession with family that others cannot understand.

During her meeting with Siegfried in the quantum space, she discovered that the other party obviously regarded her more as a comrade-in-arms. It was precisely because of this regret of missing out on a loved one that the omnipotent Lacus felt helpless and panicked when she was about to meet Kira.

"Sister Hilde told me not to use family affection to kidnap Siegfried. I really want to ask her loudly, am I a woman who would even take advantage of family affection in her eyes? I just regret why I couldn't do it earlier."

“It’s not too late actually.”

Mia patted Lux's head, stretched out two white fingers and said: "The best time to cultivate family affection is firstly ten years ago, and secondly, it is now. I believe he will be willing to accept you, just as I believe he will come back."

In a dimly lit study room on Earth, a figure with a high ponytail is constantly typing on the keyboard. As the words on the screen keep flashing, perhaps when she reaches a wonderful part, the figure hums a few lines along with the music in her headphones. After a few paragraphs, she raises her hands and stretches her back, whispering, "I'm finally almost done. I won't write again next time."

However, just as she was about to reach for the water cup on the desk, a large number of green particles condensed behind her. Within a few breaths, a red-haired boy slowly walked out of the particle flow and then gently grasped her carotid artery.

"Phew, I finally found you, Lord God!"

"you"

Maybe I accidentally touched a switch, the song in the headphones suddenly changed from "I Love the Stars on the Water" to a piece of music with some ups and downs.

[God, God, open your mouth.
Let me know who I am,
She pushed me up to the sky,
Passing through dust and ashes
