Gundam EXARE

"Want a midnight snack? If not, I'll eat it myself."

Ray said this as he entered the cockpit of the Aegis, making the place suddenly become cramped.

Then Aslan saw Rey take out the survival kit provided for the driver, which contained water, food, survival supplies, a protective pistol and magazines.

"you---"

The key is that you are holding my survival kit!

At this moment, Aslan didn't know whether he should be angry or what. How could there be such a person?

"Then I'll feed you."

Rei said as he opened the bag.

"Stop, stop!"

Aslan quickly stopped him, as he believed that Rey was the one who could do such a thing.

"what's wrong with you!"

Aslan was completely confused and felt that he was being led by the other party. He had no idea what the other party was thinking.

Rey's idea was simple. He just wanted to have some fun before he died.

"We are fellow surviving Adjusters. We should get along well with each other."

Rey spoke in a deliberately low voice as he grasped Athrun's left wrist.

At this moment, Aslan felt his whole body tremble, and he could even be said to be frightened.

He could feel Rei grabbing his left hand, first one hand, then two hands, touching it dirtyly.

"Relax."

Rei whispered in Athrun's ear, then stepped back without waiting for Athrun to react.

"I can't see anything. Where are the holes for the handcuffs?"

It's easy to handcuff in this pitch-black situation, but it's a bit difficult to untie it.

""

Aslan had another false alarm, he found that he was simply being played by the other party.

The sudden light made Athrun jump back. Ray took out the flashlight and shone it from bottom to top, and the reflection was definitely not his usual handsome face.

Then the light shone down on Aslan's handcuffs, and the key was inserted into the hole and turned to unlock the handcuffs.

"Then let's have a midnight snack."

"what on earth do you want?"

"Do you want to hear about our current situation?"

What is the situation now?

The Holy Shield was completely out of power and couldn't move. The two of them didn't know where in the desert they were. Even if they sent a signal, there was no guarantee that anyone would come to rescue them.

Fortunately, it was night time and the temperature in the desert dropped sharply.

If the two had fallen during the day, the high temperature alone would have been enough to burn Athrun to death, and the MS cockpit would not have been a place to escape the heat.

Based on this, it can be inferred that once the sun rises, the lives of the two people will enter a countdown.

Maybe in two or three hours, they would be baked dry in the cockpit.

"Our lives are like candles in the wind, so what I said before was from the bottom of my heart. Let's get along well."

Rey sat outside the cockpit of the Aegis, and Athrun finally made a decision after hesitating for a while:

"I understand, Reinhardt."

That's true. I don't want to die alone.

"I just lied to you. My name is not Reinhardt."

""

It's from the bottom of my heart, right?

Chapter 39 Two People

The brilliant starry sky gives people a refreshing feeling. If you think of a place on earth without air pollution, you will definitely think of the desert.

The gorgeous Milky Way poured down from the sky, and even the barren sand was covered with a layer of silver light.

Aslan felt very strange. It was not like he couldn't see the starry sky normally on the ship, so why did he feel so different at this moment?

"gorgeous."

He subconsciously admired this desperate situation, and then another person sitting outside the Holy Shield cockpit said:

"Although this may be the last view we see."

Why does Rei have such a big mouth? Could you please stop talking?

Before Athrun could say anything, he saw Rey possess and pull out a blanket from the cockpit, and then the blanket was placed on Athrun's legs.

It's just right, the desert is cold at night.

Aslan felt the cold wind blowing, he bit the compressed food and wrapped the blanket around himself.

Then Ray shook the compressed food in his hand and said:

"It would be nice if this wasn't what we were eating."

The taste is so-so, and it definitely gives you a lot of energy, but do you expect compressed food to be delicious and tasty? No way.

It's a shame to eat this kind of shit in such a view. This is the last meal of your life.

"I really want a big meal, like chicken fried steak."

Rei said as he took another bite of compressed food, which was matched with a bag of water.

What? Save water? Come on, why use water when people will be roasted in a few hours? This is not a water shortage problem.

"By the way, you haven't told me your name yet."

Rei changed the subject and first gave a real self-introduction:

"My name is Rey, Rey Rhodes, and this time it's for real."

The self-introduction before death sounds quite strange.

Aslan also accepted the current situation. No one knew whether he would live or die next, and it seemed that there was nothing to worry about.

"Aslan Zala."

So when he said his name, it was his surname that attracted more attention than his given name.

"Sarah? Patrick Sarah's brother?"

"It's my son."

"I know, I was just teasing you."

Rey smiled and leaned back, then quickly sat up straight. The outside of the Aegis's cockpit wasn't a flat surface. Being able to sit was a good thing. Thinking of lying back? You'd probably fall to your death.

"You actually joined the army with your status."

I thought the most he could do was command from the back and get credit for his work, eh

"Miserable Soldier."

The situation is exactly as Rey speculated. Declaring an all-out war with the Earth Army is the unanimous public opinion of the entire PLANT.

What a hassle.

Rei scratched his head. It was a big taboo to understand the enemy on the battlefield. Once you realized that the enemy was also a human being, once you had some empathy with the enemy, it would be bad.

For example, now, although he didn't know the specific situation of Aslan, the reason was so important that the son of the Minister of Defense went to the battlefield in person.

"I said a lot of nasty things in Junius 7. I'm sorry."

Ray apologized with some hesitation. He was so crazy when he was driving the MS, but he became normal again as soon as he left the cockpit. This was too embarrassing.

Aslan remained silent. How could he just say it was okay and let it go? Even if he understood the effect of words, there was no way he could just let it go.

To ease the awkward atmosphere, Rei continued:

"Would you like to learn some of my language tactics?"

"It's not like you can learn it just by saying so, and I don't want to learn it either."

Aslan shook his head. He didn't intend to continue talking about this topic.

All things are difficult at the beginning. Now that the two sides have really communicated, Aslan no longer needs to remain silent on purpose.

He then asked the very important question:

"Is Lux still alive?"

The man in front of him once used Lacus Clyne as a weapon in his words to seduce Aslan. Does this mean that he knows something about Lacus?

"She was on the Archangel. If she hadn't been taken in at that time, she would have died in the lifeboat from oxygen depletion."

Rei thought about the question and answer session with Lux at that time, and realized that he was really seen through.

Or maybe I was being too obvious.

He knew what he was doing, but he still procrastinated.

"what"

Rei sighed and finished the last bit of compressed food.

"Is there no way to send all the monopolists to heaven?"

What he meant, of course, was that everything would blow up to the sky. In the past, he just gave up and ignored it, but now if he doesn't think about it anymore, he might not even have to think about it in the future.

So Rey confronts what he was avoiding, just as Lux sees through it and knows who the real enemy is.

This out-of-control war is the epitome of evil, and those people may be taking advantage of this opportunity to reap more benefits.

The deaths of Junius 7 and the deaths caused by energy shortages on Earth will all be blamed on them.

"What do you think of using the Holy Shield to kill people all over the world?"

Rey was not joking. Isn't the Holy Shield good at this kind of one-hit-and-escape combat?

Rush over and use a Siren Cannon to burn you, and then go to burn the next house, but there is not enough power.

"what are you talking about?"

Aslan was puzzled. He just felt that this man who seemed a little out of tune had finally revealed his true side.

"I'm talking about those rubbish who don't even consider human lives as numbers. No matter how many people die, all they care about is money and profit."

Rei really wants to kill, what else can he do besides killing?

"When politics, economy, and the military are all connected by interests, the law loses its effect, and morality becomes empty talk."

Do you really think you can bring down those people through legal means? How can you fight me when even the people who created the law are on my side?

Only violence can destroy power, but where can we get enough violence to subvert everything?

This is how Rei drove himself insane. There are countless nodes in the intricate web of interests. What's the point of destroying just one?

What he said confused another person. Aslan didn't understand Rey's incoherent words.

"Let's not talk about this anymore."

Rei shrugged. What good would it do to bring up a topic that had already been thought about for a long time?

"What are you interested in?"

He asked Aslan.

"what?"
