"You have to take what I just said to heart. How's your hand...?" Frowning and looking at the cigarette butts scattered on the ground, Ritsuko Akagi said earnestly to Shinji Ikari, who was dressed as a young soldier in front of her: "Shinji, we all thank you for everything you have done for humanity. But in fact, everything you are doing now is already good. If you can defeat our enemies this time, you will be enough to... well, save humanity."

"I once vowed to fight for all mankind, to dedicate myself to the endless service of the people, and to fight for the great cause of communism, until my death. So, Dorogoy, you don't need to look at me like that. Although I'm only 14 years old, I'm living a very fulfilling life. In the eternal cause of communism, in the history of mankind after liberation, I will gain eternal life." Little Ikari tilted his head, indicating that he didn't care. "Of course I also know that life is precious. Ah, it's just that all flesh is just bargaining chips. If it's not needed, it's not needed. If there's no need to worry, there's no need to worry. Um... Dorogoy, how is Comrade Ayanami in there?"

"?"

Uh.

To be honest, to be honest: Akagi is very jealous.

You two, the Ikari family, are incredibly kind to Ayanami! Two generations of the Akagi family haven't treated Ayanami even remotely well, so it's only natural that Akagi is jealous. So, Akagi subconsciously feels that the duo of 14 Ikari Shinji vs. 14 (setting) Ayanami is incredibly fitting.

At least it’s not a perverted love, nor is it pedophilia (diss Lao Ikari).

All of Ikari's emergency actions just now were correct, even the way he ran to the infirmary with Ayanami in his arms was correct. He is indeed an excellent soldier who retired from the battlefield - no matter what, he is still a "hero saving the beauty", right?

What's with this "comrade"?

"Dawa...Richter (Russian)? You call the most suitable person comrade (Japanese)?"

"Yes, after all, she's my comrade." Ikari nodded, confirming his feelings. Whether it was this playthrough or the playthrough before, they were all ruthless individuals bound together by fate. Ikari swore in every dimension to protect Ayanami, and luckily, despite being a consumable, he managed to do just that.

The handsome young man under the Soviet military cap said with a serious and earnest face, "She is naturally my comrade (Japanese), because we will fight together, work together, and bear all the hardships of fate together - she is mine, and I am hers. Ah, and I don't know why I felt very familiar with her the first time I saw her... Hmm. Ms. Ritsuko?"

"Eh?" You...

Ritsuko Akagi was so surprised.

Are you so fickle?

"Ms. Ritsuko, I feel like there's a special connection between me and Ayanami. I know her very well..."

"Alright, stop talking. You're so philandering at such a young age?! It's not about that Katsuragi guy..."

"Am I unfaithful? Maybe. I've never experienced love before. But this feeling is a bit strange, Ms. Ritsuko Dorogi - you said, Ayanami and I..."

"do not talk!"

"No, I have to finish." Ikari is not the kind of person who interrupts others, nor is he a stupid riddler: "--Ayanami and I look so much alike! When I'm with her, it's like looking in a mirror."

"!!!"

That's true.

You don't need makeup to cosplay your mother. Ayanami was copied from your mother's mold - do you think you two look alike? In terms of cloning generation, you two can be said to be mother and son; in terms of relationship, you can also be said to be brother and sister.

"Don't think too much..." Akagi Ritsuko was a little nervous. She should have the most complicated feelings towards Ayanami in NEVR besides the Ikari father and son. Even the old thief Fuyutsuki couldn't compare to her. Because she had the most blood on her hands.

"Tell me." Xiao Ding touched his chin and asked after a moment of thought: "Actually, my mother is remarried..."

“???” Is your thinking logic okay?

"Or did my mom actually give birth to twins, and my dad threw me away because he preferred girls?"

"Well, Shinji-kun, I'm sure it's not. We met once when you were a child, but you may not remember it." In order to make you forget the scene of your mother melting in the plug, you were taken away for brainwashing. If a four-year-old's brain is not brainwashed properly, it is easy for something to happen and become autistic or something - fortunately, you are fine.

Ahaha, case solved.

"That's strange—Ayanami and I look so much alike, and I don't know her at all. So we must be related, at least close relatives! Well, Ritsuko-san, you said you met me once when we were kids. Do I look like my mom or my dad?"

Needless to say!

If you look like your dad, you'll die in one episode of EVA! Who the hell wants to watch a 50-year-old boy with a face like Sima and a sour love story with two girls?

"Uh... hard to say."

"If I looked like my father, I'd have solved the case!" Ikari clapped his hands and immediately began to imagine: "Comrade Ayanami must be the child of my father's affair! Everything would be explained!"

"Don't say anything, you'll know when the time comes." Akagi now just wants to escape from this dangerous place: "What else is there? I still have work to do - you should smoke less and drink less. It's good for your health and the experiment -"

"You haven't told me what happened to Comrade Ayanami, Sister Ritsuko." When Ikari said this, he immediately started to act like a child.

"Oh, the First Fit is fine, just seriously injured. We've taken the most appropriate measures—" He was administering large doses of medication, orders personally issued by Old Ikari—who knew when the Apostles would arrive, so every extra combatant would be a plus. Huh? Would something happen in a year?

When playing chess, you particularly treasure your rook. Why is that?

You have feelings for your chess piece? No kidding! Isn't it because your Rook is the most useful? Even if it's useless, would you still care? Old Ikari cherishes Ayanami so much, does that mean he loves her?

Everyone is a chess piece in Old Ikari's eyes, but Ayanami's chess piece carving skills remind Old Ikari of his wife Ikari Yui.

If I were Ikari Yui, I would be pissed to death. This was completely different from Ikari Yui's original intention - but the process was completely wrong, and the result was basically fine, which means that Ikari Yui completed more than 99% of her plan.

Huh? What was Ikari Yui's plan? It was to save Ikari-chan and all of humanity. Ikari-chan accounted for over 99 percent, while all of humanity, including Ikari-san, accounted for less than 1 percent. So, even though Ikari died in the end (in the old movie), Ikari-chan survived and even had a wife (Asuka). So, even if all of humanity dissolved in the end, it didn't matter. After all, those who wanted to be reborn could still do so. That was your own problem.

"Well, you're worthy of being a frontline staff member, Sister Ritsuko, you're awesome!" Xiao Ding gave a thumbs up and flattered her like it was free: "Can I go meet my comrades?"

"Okay...it's better not to take too long. Oh, by the way, just now in the lab...you pressed Maya and me under you, and Maya asked me to thank you, and I thank you too." After saying that, Ritsuko Akagi didn't hesitate to leave, and left in a very casual manner.

"It's my responsibility. Take care."

Ikari bowed, then turned and walked into Ayanami's ward—it wasn't a ward, but more like an operating room combined with a ward. The smell of disinfectant, medicine, LCL, and even other odors mixed together.

The air was filled with sadness.

The blue-haired girl closed her eyes tightly and groaned in pain.

Xiao Ikari's heart was being cut one by one, which was more painful than cutting his own body.

"Ayanami..." Ikari whispered something, but in the end, he kept it to himself. He didn't want to disturb Ayanami's rest even a little bit. Several NEVR medical staff around him tried to talk to Ikari, but he quickly waved them away.

Finally, he stood in front of Ayanami's bed for thirty seconds.

During that time, Xiao Ding's expression was amazing. According to the nurses who spoke afterwards, their future view on choosing a partner is something like this: when I'm in the hospital bed, my boyfriend doesn't have to cry, but his expression must be as if he's in more pain than if he were dead.

Xiao Ikari took off a pendant from his neck and placed it on the table beside him.

Ding, ding, ding!!! A small necklace pendant with a hammer and sickle!

"I wish you a long life and good health." Xiao Ding retreated silently without saying a word. The nurses watching beside him were also fluctuating in their moods.

Reject childish aesthetics, starting with others! — On my way home tonight, I'm going to pick up a few sister-brother romance books! The sister wants a nurse, and the brother wants a strong yet gentle young officer! Okay, that's settled!

------------

Something went wrong, and all of Kodakari's afternoon activities were canceled. Later, Katsuragi, who had rushed back from a long journey, learned about what had happened that day.

You can see that this is really painful.

"How is your hand?"

"Small problem." The handsome young man in Soviet military uniform, his hands wrapped like pig's trotters, said, "I've always had a much stronger recovery ability than others."

"...Don't be so arrogant." However, this statement needed to be reported. Katsuragi sighed inwardly, thinking how filthy he really was. "Are you sure you're not in pain now?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Snap." Katsuragi's hand held Ikari's hand.

"Hiss!!!!" Tears streamed down his face from the pain. His expression didn't change drastically, it was just twitching, but a breath of cold air escaped from the corner of his mouth.

"Tsk, you're just bragging." Katsuragi snorted and looked at the time.

2015 5 Month 25 Day.

"Come on, I'll treat you to a delicious meal today! And by the way... I'll buy you two sets of clothes, you cheapskate! With $300 million a year, you can't afford to buy one set of clothes?"

"? This looks good on me."

"You think it's great, but the neighbors are already gossiping. If it weren't for your connections, the cops would have been here to investigate the Red Army long ago." Katsuragi's hands were on the steering wheel, enjoying the traffic in Tokyo-3. "And starting tomorrow, I'll take you to school."

"...? Military academy?"

"Regular school!—You're still a child. I've consulted my superiors. You still have to go to school during the day!"

"??? Are you kidding me? Are you bored?" Xiao Ikari's expression was very interesting. He had been wanting to complain for a long time: "I came here to fight, not to go to school."

"But as a teenager, you should go to school. This is a custom in Japan, and it's also a custom in the ordinary world. Please get used to it. Driving an EVA requires a calm mind, and going to school is also a way to calm your mind..."

"My habit is war! AK with vodka, the White House is my home tonight!" This week's Xiao Ding is a genuine, honest and ultimate hardcore ruthless man who can even enter the Tongliao universe: "Six: Nine, #, ④! Nine! Three; ⑥' One! ③' Five, if you want me to calm down, give me two drinks right now, and I'll calm down immediately - what's the point of going to school? It's stupid, a waste of time, experience and precious training..."

"Young man, watch your tone! I'm your superior, I'm your senior! Now obey my orders and follow their lead!" Katsuragi suddenly acted like an adult: "We're going out for dinner tonight, and I'll buy you two sets of casual clothes! Do you hear me? Eat well tonight, and go to school tomorrow!"

"...Tsk."

"Answer!"

"ecTb!" Xiao Ikari answered helplessly.

"...and." Seeing how obedient Xiao Ding was, the atmosphere in the car between the two of them was a little strange. At least, that's what Dache thought - Katsuragi suddenly changed the subject and said, "I've thought about it... I won't eat out tonight. Let's order takeout. Your hands are not convenient. I'll take you shopping for clothes directly. It's not convenient for you to drink outside! Let's go, let's go -"

Can't bear it?

104 Better than a living god

You're not going to say that, hey, you're not going to say that about this capitalist thing.

"Well, Shin-chan - if you hadn't gone to the Soviet Union, you might be working as a fashion model there now." Katsuragi held her big mobile phone in her small hand and scanned Ikari Shinji in front of her.

"That's a good thing—the world has one less model and one more communist fighter." The handsome boy picked up the military uniform next to him and pulled out his officer ID, league ID, passport, and cell phone. He stuffed them into the clothes Katsuragi had just bought for him.

Misato Katsuragi's aesthetic can be seen in her style. Aside from the rigid issues of poverty, falling into the capitalist consumer trap and unable to pay off her mortgage, or gaining weight, her style generally favors a cropped, tight jacket that's a size smaller and paired with casual bottoms.

Little Ikari is also dressed in this outfit, which complements Shinji Ikari's obvious good looks and body proportions. It doesn't really matter, after all, the protagonist should be more attractive, more delicate, or more handsome. As for the body proportions, they start with a nine-head body, with the neck below the head - Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's greatest contribution is that he drew these characters.

It’s said that it’s summer all year round in Japan, so why does Ikari still wear long sleeves?

Because the 36,000 scars on his arms would be too terrifying if he didn't cover them up in the relatively peaceful urban life of District 11.

"So, Misato-sister," Ikari handed Katsuragi his international card and asked softly, "Can we go now? I'm not used to being here."

The soul that traveled through time and space has long been accustomed to many things. It can drive a large vehicle, but not other things? —But in a sense...

The bilingbiling eyes of the shop assistants around me - their eyes are shining, brighter than the light from their mobile phones.

"Actually, you can change..."

"There are only eight sets of clothes for all four seasons." Xiao Ikari shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't care. "Just pay by card. I'm very happy with the clothes you gave me, Sister Misato."

"...Since you said it was a gift from me." Katsuragi Misato felt a pang of pain, but on the surface she kept a calm face: "Then of course I can't let you pay for it! - Hey, this is an order from my senior!"

"? I'm not Japanese." Xiao Ikari shrugged and shook his head, looking disobedient: "Why should I be afraid of the culture of my predecessors and successors..."

"Then obey orders!" You're not from District 11, Katsuragi is! Since District 11's economic crisis, its women have finally reawakened their instincts as social beings, gaining a deep understanding of their place on the social spectrum. This plane experienced the global geological catastrophe of the 2nd Strike, which has brought a profound realization to women, who were always vulnerable during the years of the disaster. In District 11, women spending money on men and wooing their affections—nearly countless natural behaviors—are perfectly normal.

Katsuragi thought so too, so he rummaged through his card wallet for a long time, and finally found a credit card with money on it, and handed it to the receptionist.

"ecTb (yes, darling)." Watching Katsuragi puff himself up was a real treat; at this stage, Katsuragi was still in his silly prime. "But, darling—what would you like to eat today? If you insist on giving me clothes, then I insist on treating you this time."

"...Okay, if you insist." Looking at the number on the card reader, Katsuragi decided not to refuse. Huh? Adult pride?

Bah! What kind of rotten rice is this? —I want to eat soft rice!

"But don't go to those overly expensive places. I don't like the atmosphere there! Back then... hmph, it was disgusting." Katsuragi expressed his unbearable past: "If you really want to treat us, just go home and do it - here, just buy some takeout or something and go back."

"Okay—oh, Misato-nee, you go order. I'll go get some other things, and we'll be back in this round later."

"? Okay, if anything happens, remember to call me immediately."

It doesn't matter. There will definitely be a group of NEVR operators following us.

...It must be, right?

------------------

"Sorry...we lost him!"

"!! Bagana! How could you possibly lose a child?"

"He's truly... too flexible. Director, we'd like to see more personnel assigned—he definitely has counter-reconnaissance capabilities."

"!!" Shit, I forgot. The information my superiors gave me seemed to indicate that the other party was a former scout. Anyway... I already sent in more people, but they still lost me.

------------------

Shinji Ikari went around in circles. He learned the skills of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance in Siberia and furthered his studies in Moscow. His teachers were all ruthless people from all walks of life. There were Chechens, Cubans, and even revolutionary comrades from China.

What he bought doesn't matter; the important thing is that the 14-year-old student went to the pharmacy and calmly bought some necessities. Then he was told he could buy 0.01. That didn't matter. Min Ting wasn't allowed. That thing could mass-produce cute girls with genitals, a method only a fool would choose for female abduction in the three-dimensional world. The two-dimensional world wouldn't bother using such garbage; they'd simply set up a high-quality pharmaceutical company—hence, minors, especially male minors, were not allowed to buy it.

"? You're back? I was wondering when the higher-ups called me. Aha, you're quite capable, aren't you?" An hour later, Katsuragi was already waiting there. Seeing Ikari coming back with a lot of bags, he was puzzled: "Why, do you feel like someone is spying on you?"

"Yes, and there were more than one wave." Xiao Ikari nodded in agreement, saying, "If NEVR were secretly observing, I could understand. But if there were more than one wave of NEVR people secretly observing, I can't understand it. The only explanation is that NEVR's intelligence department is too incompetent and had no idea that their colleagues were behind the scenes."

The monitoring personnel almost went crazy.

"? More than one wave?"

"Yes—but that's not what I'm concerned about. I heard that you have a bad relationship with the Self-Defense Forces. Maybe it's the Self-Defense Forces? Hahaha, the sorrow of a defeated country." Xiao Ikari threw the things in his hand into Katsuragi's car and said, "Here, this is for you."
