I participated in the development of EVA

The density distribution of the Apostle's core is not balanced. After removing a layer of the surface, the depth that the observation device can observe is significantly attenuated, which means that most of the core's mass is concentrated in the inner core. With the current equipment, even if a super-large observation device is manufactured as planned, the inner core cannot be observed.

The plan failed.

The project team came up with another plan, but this time it was not about observing the core, but about brute force.

Abandon observation and directly break the core into fragments, and then implant them into the cloned embryo.

The plan may seem simple and crude, and may even damage the soul.

however……

In theory, the soul will not be damaged.

Because according to the theory of scholars in the project team, even if the soul is scattered and distributed to different cloned embryos, the soul will maintain the connection at the lepton level. In other words, the fraction of the material level cannot affect the integrity of the lepton level. This theory is a conjecture proposed by the project team based on the phenomenon that there is a lepton network between the three sages systems.

Fumihiko Ikari's first reaction to this theory was that it was unreliable. Then he thought of the existence of the special individual Kaworu Nagisa, and felt that Seele might have created Adam's clone Kaworu Nagisa in this way.

What is this?

Synthetic?

Or a soul transplant?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ikari Fumihiko.

Ikari Fumihiko thought about it and added some of his own ideas.

"It is possible to create cloned embryos mixed with Apostle cells."

After hearing this, the scholars in the project team reacted immediately, but considering the relationship between Ayanami Rei and Ikari Fumihiko, the project team leader could only ask in a tactful way.

"Like the artificial pilot program that was released?"

"Yes, this way we can draw conclusions as soon as possible."

"Use the biological genes of the third apostle, or the fourth apostle?"

The fourth apostle appeared?

Ikari Fumihiko was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted.

The third apostle still refers to the water angel, and the fourth apostle refers to the sixth apostle, the fish angel in the original book. The reason for this is naturally because Seele created the fish-shaped EVA, which changed the order in which the apostles in the original book were observed.

728. I'm just curious

"Let's use the third apostle."

"Yes."

Without much nonsense, the meeting ended immediately after the plan was finalized, and everyone devoted themselves to the preparations.

Ritsuko Akagi, who was watching the meeting under the pseudonym of Naoko Akagi, suddenly became active, but she remained calm on the surface and did not reveal her thoughts.

Although she concealed it well, Fumihiko Ikari, who had preconceived notions, still felt her emotional change.

Ikari Fumihiko said nothing about this.

No matter how things turn out, the top priority is to rescue Naoko Akagi.

After more than half a year of planning, although Ritsuko Akagi still maintained her disguise, she had not been able to succeed. She had somewhat of a tendency to give up, which was mainly reflected in her daily dressing. In the past, she dressed however she could to attract men, and even secretly asked Misato Katsuragi for advice on related matters. Now, she dresses however she feels comfortable.

Fumihiko Ikari survived the past six months by relying on his craft to strengthen his faith, but this also resulted in his daily rest time being extended a lot.

Ritsuko Akagi was frustrated and confused about this.

She always felt that Ikari Fumihiko did not love his mother, and his behavior in the past year made her confused again.

Although soaking in lcl for a long time will have an impact on the body, the body and mind can withstand it if they don't eat regularly.

Therefore, Ritsuko Akagi had to switch back to her real body to eat every day, but this time, after leaving the virtual warehouse and heading to the cafeteria, she was captured by Misato Katsuragi.

Just like Ikari Fumihiko couldn't do anything to her, she couldn't do anything to Katsuragi Misato.

He was dragged away from the research institute and came to the third New Tokyo City.

Since most humans are forced or voluntarily enter virtual games, all kinds of service industries in reality are run by artificial intelligence.

This was the restaurant the two of them had come to.

Order food using your phone and the machine will cook and deliver the food.

Seeing Akagi Ritsuko's state, Katsuragi Misato understood, "No way! You've taken the initiative to offer yourself to him, but he still hasn't taken you down? Does he have a problem with his sexual orientation? No! In the previous meeting, he even peeked at my legs with eyes that looked like he wanted to take advantage of me. This... there shouldn't be a problem with his sexual orientation?!"

"..."

Ritsuko Akagi was also helpless.

During this year, she not only used her mother's identity, but also took part in the competition herself, but all ended in failure.

She couldn't help but make an excuse.

"He can't let go of his ex-girlfriend."

"That's just an excuse. I think you two are too familiar with each other. Plus, he and my aunt are colleagues, so he has concerns and doesn't dare to attack you."

Ah yes!

It was indeed because of my mother that he was so restrained.

"I guess so……"

Seeing this, Misato Katsuragi sighed with heartache, wondering why her good friend's relationship was so unsuccessful.

She really had no choice but to drop the subject.

"Oh, by the way, a handsome guy asked me for your contact plan."

"Handsome uncle?"

"Well, he said he knew you and had a photo of you and him. He didn't look like a bad person, so I sent him your contact information."

“Are there any photos with me?”

Ritsuko Akagi became even more confused after hearing this.

Misato Katsuragi thought for a moment before speaking.

"That handsome uncle seems to be called Ikari Gendo. Oh! By the way, it was because he and the director had the same last name that I gave him your contact information."

"It's him!?"

Ritsuko Akagi was a little surprised.

"Didn't he get caught sneaking into the United States?"

"You were caught sneaking into the United States?"

"It's nothing, don't worry about it. Just remember to stay away from this person as much as possible in the future."

"Is this man dangerous? I won't get you into any trouble, will I?"

Ritsuko Akagi hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"He was previously a core member of the Seele organization."

Hearing this, Misato Katsuragi's expression suddenly became serious and she looked thoughtful.

"You said he was arrested and then released. This should be because the higher-ups wanted to use him to find out the members of the Seele organization, right?"

Ritsuko Akagi shook her head.

"I don't know, maybe it is like this."

Just as Misato Katsuragi was about to say something, Ritsuko Akagi's cell phone rang.

An unfamiliar number was displayed.

Thinking of what Misato Katsuragi had said before, Ritsuko Akagi hung up the phone without hesitation and added the number to her blacklist, because this strange number was most likely Gendo Ikari.

Seeing this, Misato Katsuragi gave an apologetic dry laugh.

"I'm sorry to trouble you. I should have contacted you first before deciding whether to give him your number."

"fine."

Not long after, another unfamiliar number called.

Ritsuko Akagi directly turned on the anti-disturbance mode and rejected all incoming calls from unfamiliar numbers, and the phone became quiet.

However, when the two were halfway through their meal, a man walked into the restaurant from outside.

"How did he find me?"

Hearing what Katsuragi Misato said, Akagi Ritsuko turned around and saw that the person who walked into the restaurant was Ikari Gendo.

When Ikari Gendo heard the noise, he looked over and showed a look of surprise. Then he walked over and without giving Akagi Ritsuko time to react, he went straight to the point.

"I want to talk to you about your mother."

Ritsuko Akagi frowned and looked at Gendo Ikari for a moment before speaking.

"Just say it here."

"I have a way for you to see Professor Akagi again."

Misato Katsuragi didn't know that Naoko Akagi had disappeared, so she was a little confused when she heard this.

Ritsuko Akagi looked at Gendo Ikari warily.

"what way."

Ikari Gendo shook his head.

"can not say."

Ritsuko Akagi obviously took Ikari Fumihiko's words to heart. Facing the mysterious Ikari Gendo, she was unwilling to get entangled with him any further.

"Then you go."

Ikari Gendo didn't say much, he just turned around and left, sat at a table far away and ordered his own food.

Misato Katsuragi wanted to ask what happened, but when she saw Ritsuko Akagi was thinking about something, she swallowed the question back.

What Ritsuko Akagi thinks is very simple.

That is exactly what the method that Gendō Ikari was talking about is.

But no matter how much she thought about it, she still couldn't guess it.

But she knew there was someone who should be able to answer her questions.

"Let's go back."

Although Misato Katsuragi kept forcing Ritsuko Akagi to come out, she knew her limits, so she didn't say much at this moment.

When the two returned to the research institute, Ritsuko Akagi went straight to find Fumihiko Ikari.

"I just ran into Ikari Gendo."

Ikari Fumihiko was a little surprised, but not really surprised. He had even guessed what Ikari Gendo and Akagi Ritsuko had said.

It's not that he has been keeping an eye on Ikari Gendō or Akagi Ritsuko, but that he knows what the only trump card Ikari Gendō has in his hand now.

"He said he could let you and Naoko meet again?"

Akagi Ritsuko responded with a little surprise.

"Yes... I'm a little curious, do you know what this method is?"

Ikari Fumihiko asked back.

"Isn't Naoko in the project team next door? Why are you asking this?"

Ritsuko Akagi has already honed her skills over the past six months.

"I'm just curious."

20:42:41

729.Ah? ??? ???

Fumihiko Ikari knew that he had to make things clear on this matter so that Ritsuko Akagi would know the seriousness of the problem.
