A journey through the Gundam world

Although she had picked fruits grown by her mother in her own greenhouse, this was her first time picking corn.

Looking around, she could see densely packed corn stalks all around. Some of the corn stalks even required her to stand on tiptoes to reach them.

In this regard, she was a little worried that she would be embarrassed because she couldn't reach it.

"Don't worry, the harvester will cut down the corn stalks, and then we just have to follow behind and pick up the fallen corn and put it in the basket."

"So simple?"

Looking at her expression, Alex smiled.

"Miss, the power of technology is to make people's lives and work simpler."

After saying this, he walked towards the others who had followed the harvester at a safe distance and started picking corn.

Gudelia looked over and saw that the twins were shouting and competing over who had picked up the bigger corn.

Mikazuki, Bisquet and others were working sullenly.

Even Fumitan was putting corn into the basket skillfully.

So she hurriedly squatted down and, together with the others, picked corn into her basket.

Just like Alex said, proper labor will make people feel relaxed.

After some labor, Gudelia seemed to have forgotten all the previous unpleasantness.

When she picked up a corn, she saw a corn hanging on the stalk in the distance, so she got up and ran over, intending to break off the corn with her hands.

Because she had just seen that whether it was Mikazuki, Alex, Biscat, or even Atla and Sakura, they could easily break the corn off the stalks.

So she decided to give it a try, imitating the actions of others. After grabbing the straw with one hand and the corn with the other, she started to exert force.

As a result, it seemed very simple and easy, but she couldn't pick the corn no matter what.

Unwilling to admit defeat, she decisively increased her strength, and finally with a click, the corn was broken off by her.

However, due to excessive force, she fell backwards involuntarily.

"what!"

She clearly remembered that Biskate told her to pay attention to her steps because the stubble of the straw was very sharp.

But where she was leaning back, there was a neat row of corn stubbles.

Chapter 27 Chocolate and the Prince

Gudilia gave up struggling and closed her eyes.

But at this moment, she only felt her arm being grabbed violently.

Then, he was pulled up forcefully by the other party.

"It's alright."

Hearing the familiar voice, she carefully opened her eyes.

The person in front of me is Alex.

"Thank you."

For some reason, her face turned red again.

Mikazuki on the side glanced at the two people, then turned back and continued his work.

On his wrist was the black bracelet woven by Atla.

Atla, who secretly looked at Mikazuki, saw that the other party was wearing a bracelet. After showing a smile, he looked at the red bracelet on his wrist.

"Oh~ Atla, it's actually a couple bracelet."

"Yes, yes, but does Mikazuki understand the meaning of this?"

The two little guys, Kuchi and Kulaka, suddenly poked their heads out from behind her, whispering loudly.

Seeing Mikazuki on the side looking at him, Atla's face turned red and she made a sound like a boiling kettle.

"You two!"

Kuchi and Kulaka immediately ran away, leaving behind a series of cheerful laughter.

Biskate looked at them and said with a smile.

"Kuch, Kulaka, go get some more empty baskets."

"Ok!"

The two of them ran out of the cornfield with cheerful laughter.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, Gudilia unconsciously put a smile on her face.

"What a happy child."

"Ah, that's right."

Alex nodded.

"but……"

Gudelia lowered her head again, and she remembered what her sponsor said to herself.

'The goddess of war who goes to death with the young warriors will build an eternal paradise on their bones.It's like a heroic legend in a fairy tale. '

He is going to Earth to do his part for the independence of Mars, but all of this is based on the death of these young soldiers.

The conflict between ideal and reality left her wondering how to choose.

The sponsor has paid enough to hire Tekkadan into her account. Even without her father's help, she can hire Tekkadan to escort her to Earth.

But at this moment, she hesitated.

She asked herself, was she really qualified to drive these young people to die for herself?

She doesn't know because she is a kind person and she wants her homeland, Mars, to gain independence.

But she didn't want to see bloodshed and sacrifice. If Alex knew what she was thinking, he would definitely tell her the truth.

You can't have both.

Revolution is not a treat, neither is independence.

Countries that achieve independence without bloodshed will always be a wonder.

Because their people and rulers did not understand that all this was not for nothing.

But even though Gudilia didn't say it out loud, Alex could get a rough idea from her expression.

It's nothing more than a conflict between ideals and reality.

"Do you know how much this corn costs? Miss Gudelia."

When he said this, Gudilia was stunned for a moment, and then tried hard to remember.

"This one? I remember... 200 Canadian dollars?"

"You're talking about the selling price. Do you know what the purchase price is?"

Gudelia shook her head.

"10 kilograms, 50 Canadian dollars."

"how come!"

"Moreover, these corns and straws are not for eating, because although the cultivated area is large, they are sold at low prices and used as biofuels."

Listening to what the other party said, Gudilia couldn't believe her ears.

Looking around, the huge corn fields around us actually don’t have much income!

"Even if Sakura has Biskate's salary as a subsidy, her life is actually very difficult."

Looking at Sakura and Biscat in the distance, Gudelia fell into deep thought.

"But aren't you afraid of death?"

"afraid."

She was stunned when she got an unexpected answer from Alex's mouth.

"Huh? Then why?"

"However, they are more afraid of starving to death because they have no jobs. And this kind of death is not just for one person, it may even be for a family."

Listening to Alex's flat and creepy words, she thought of what she had said at the July meeting.

'Because of the occupation and blood-sucking on Earth, people on Mars have been struggling for survival. '

'Poverty and death rates have remained high as a result. '

However, all the data mentioned in the previous speech were cold data.

After coming to Tekkadan, what she saw was the real and crueler truth.

"So, Miss Gudelia, we are very grateful to your father for paying the liquidated damages, because this money will allow us to support us for a while and then find a new job."

"Then you guys..."

"I don't know what life will be like in the future. But for us, life must go on no matter what. No matter whether the mission we receive is dangerous or not, life is life."

After speaking, without waiting for Gudelia to say anything, Alex walked away with his basket.

Although he was actually tricking Gudelia into continuing to hire them so that he could complete his mission.

Although the method is a bit despicable, the other party is not really stupid. Using other methods, it is better to take advantage of the other party's sympathy.

As for whether other members of Tekkadan would object to this, Alex estimated that they would not object either.

As he just said, for them, work is to make money, to support their families, and to not starve to death on the streets.

On Mars today, there is such a job that provides food, accommodation and even wages.

It is already much better than other people struggling to survive.

Therefore, even if they may die, it is nothing to them.

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of brakes and the exclamations of Kuchi and Kulaka from outside the cornfield.

"Kuki! Kulaka!"

Biscat hurriedly threw down the basket and ran outside, while Mikazuki and Alex were the ones who moved faster.

Then came Sakura and Atla, and finally the master and servant Gudilia.

The jeep fell into a ditch on the roadside. Galio hurriedly got out of the car and looked at the two little girls who had fallen on the road.

"Hey, you guys, are you okay?"

Before he could reach out to help the two of them, a figure suddenly emerged from the cornfield.

Before Galio could react, Mikazuki pushed him onto the car like a ferocious beast.

His long-trained arms strangled the opponent's neck, firmly controlling Galio.

Seeing this, McGillis hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car on the other side, regardless of the blood on his head.

At this time, the two sisters had gotten up from the ground.

"Mikazuki, you misunderstood, we are fine."

Alex, who was the second to rush out, was slightly startled when he saw the Gallarhorn logo on the car.

He turned around and whistled to Biskate. Under the guidance of his gaze, he saw the Gjallarhorn logo on the opponent's car and immediately nodded knowingly.

Putting aside his worries about his sisters for the time being, he turned around and pushed Gudilia's master and servant back again as they were about to walk out of the cornfield.

"Hush, it's Gallarhorn! Don't come out!"

After saying that, he turned around and left the cornfield again.

Through the gap between the straw, Gudilia didn't dare to breathe.

She didn't expect to meet someone from Gjallarhorn here.

And it's so close...

She only felt her heart beating crazily, and Fumitan beside her could feel the tension in the other person's heart through her cold hands.
