Chapter Eight Hundred and Thirtieth Release
Xiao Ran entertained Aslan and the three of them to have breakfast with him, although he probably understood that the three of them must have eaten, but because of his own arrangement, it was not easy to refuse, so they ate it once. Basically it was Xiao Ran who was talking, whether it was Aslan, Lunamaria and Heine, they all listened more often than they did. [w. Sui Mеng. lā
Not long after breakfast, the three of Aslan bid farewell to Xiao Ran and left. It was not until the three of them left that Xiao Ran watched the door close again, leaning on the sofa and bouncing lightly. Aslan didn’t mention the handrail next to it. If ZAFT starts to declare war on Orb, Durandal will find a way to deal with him without waiting for him to turn against him. At that time, Aslan will definitely go back to Orb , and even if they were unlucky enough to be caught by Durandal's men, even Xiao Ran and Lacus would not leave Aslan in ZAFT.
But the short time with Luna Maria and Heine at least left them with a good impression of Xiao Ran, and the next step is to turn these impressions into trust. Tree, it is not up to Xiao Ran to decide, but three of the five pilots on the Minerva will eventually defect to Orb, and the remaining two pilots, Luna Maria and Heine, will be defeated by Aspen. Under the influence of Lan, Zhen, and Lei, based on their impression and trust in Xiao Ran, there is also a great possibility that they will eventually leave ZAFT and join Aub's arms.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head. At this time, ZAFT and Orb had only just finalized the cooperation agreement, and he started to plot against Durandal now. Although he was prepared, it still felt a little sinister.
He raised his hand, and soon a follower bent over to Li Xiao Ran's side, only to hear Li Xiao Ran say: "The press conference at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, go and see if there is anything you need to cooperate with, let them discuss yesterday. When the final result is sent, I will have a look at it first."
The entourage nodded and walked out. It didn't take long for an official document to be delivered to Xiao Ran. After reading it carefully, Xiao Ran didn't find any traps in it. It was written on the text as promised. Originally, Xiao Ran was going to ask Durandal to borrow a batch of supplies, but after the return of the Heavenly Pillar, D.S.S.D entered Orb, and various neutral countries and countries that Xiao Ran contacted. With the help of forces, Orb's side did not need to worry about supplies in a short period of time, so Xiao Ran finally gave up this idea.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Ran, who had already changed into the uniform of Orb's supreme leader, appeared on time at the press conference that Durandal specially prepared for this signing and speech. At the same time, the senior officials and officers of the cloth, Durandal also came out from another direction, and also brought some congressmen and ZAFT officers, and even Aslan and Heine followed at the end of the team, Then he stood on the side of the stage.
At this time, the entire scene was filled with countless reporters, and after Xiao Ran appeared, among the crowd of reporters, one who seemed to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old,
But the brown-haired girl who was a little mature for two years also showed a look of nostalgia after seeing the figures on the stage, but when she saw that Aslan was actually wearing the red dress of ZAFT, she was also a child. I was a little surprised.
"Teacher, Mr. Mu, Captain Bucky Lulu, and Aslan, why did they put on the ZAFT uniform again?"
This girl is Miria Ria, who once served as a CIC seat on the Archangel. At this time, after she left the Archangel, she became a freelance reporter and was active all over the world. At first, she was to record after the war. The peace of the past has now become the war after the recorded peace.
And standing next to her was a young man with short blond hair who looked the same age, and was holding a video camera in the direction of the conference stage, and was using the camera to record Seeing the figures of Xiao Ran and Aslan, the young man seemed to have heard Miria Riya's words, turned his head to Miria Riya and said with a smile: "I always thought that Aslan was still wearing this suit. The clothes look better, but I didn’t expect that guy to join ZAFT again. He stayed in Orb well, and I don’t know what he thinks when he returns to ZAFT. But you are a teacher, and now you stand up again, and I also came together with Speaker Durandal, I really don’t know what the world will become in the future.”
Miria Ria was silent for a moment, turned her head to look at the boy who had been by her side for two years, who was also her boyfriend, smiled slightly, and said, "Diego, why don't we go back to Orb too?" How about it."
"Ah?" The boy is Diego, the pilot of Storm Gundam. Because of Xiao Ran, he didn't go back to ZAFT as in the original plot, so he stayed by Miria Ria's side all the time. After the words, he was stunned for a moment: "Go back?"
Mirialia smiled and nodded heavily, her eyes were full of determination: "Yes, but before I go back, I want to meet Aslan first."
After seeing the determination in Mirialia's eyes, Diego also grinned: "Okay, let's go back."
On the stage, the moment Xiao Ran and Durandal held hands together, countless flashlights illuminated the entire venue like daylight, but both Xiao Ran and Durandal seemed to be used to this The lights, even in the face of countless lights flickering, did not have the slightest expression change.
The two nodded with a smile, and then sat in their own seats. The two people's seats were next to each other, and there was a row of their own people sitting next to each other. After countless flashing lights stopped and the venue fell into silence again, Durandal crossed his arms and straightened his back to look at the reporters below the stage, and slowly opened his mouth.
"Everyone, I am the chairman of the supreme council, Girubardo Durandal. I think the person sitting next to me should be more familiar than me. It is the Prime Minister of Orb, Xiao Ran. Under such circumstances, he suddenly called I am deeply sorry for everyone holding this press conference, because the war between us and the people on Earth has not yet ended, and the appearance of Prime Minister Orb, who is a neutral country, may also make you feel confused, but Master Xiao Ran and I also hope that everyone Be able to listen attentively to what comes next.”
"Almost three years have passed since the end of the last war, and the world has only enjoyed two years of peace, but it has once again fallen into war because of the fall of Junius 7, although it was already before the war started I tried my best to get understanding from all sides, but no matter what I did, it was of no avail."
"Since the day when the coalition fired nuclear bombs on countless innocent people again, the war between ZAFT and the coalition seems to have no chance of stopping. The war has caused countless innocent people's deaths and injuries, and left more people homeless , children can't find their loved ones, parents can't find their children, loved ones are separated forever, and all of this is caused by an unstoppable war, even though PLNAT has never given up its appeal to stop the war. .”
"But so far, no matter what kind of efforts are made, the reason for the continuous spread of the war is the real reason for the war. Due to the differences in intelligence collection in different countries, the upper-level blockade of information from the lower-level, presumably many people are still Not yet known."
Following Durandal's words, scenes of battles began to be played on the big screen on the side of the conference stage, but more of them were battles than a reckless massacre. The mobile suits dispatched to attack unarmed civilians also suffered from the Junius 7 disaster. The huge MS Destroyer Gundam shuttles through the city and destroys the city. This is also the first time that Destroyer Gundam is truly shown by the global news media. to the eyes of the world.
"These are tragedies caused by the order of some cruel people, and this huge mobile suit is also a weapon of war that appeared in the battle with ZAFT a few days ago. The situation when the central part of the mainland is marching through the cities of the Osib region."
"This gigantic destructive weapon suddenly started attacking without any warning, reducing the title and the city to ashes. We immediately carried out a sniper defensive battle, and with the help of Orb, we successfully wiped out the The giant destructive weapon was successfully eliminated, but unfortunately, even if the destruction and killing of this destructive weapon were successfully stopped, great sacrifices were made, both soldiers and civilians."
"It is the Earth Federation that caused these tragedies, and the land that was burned by the war is also the land of the earth. The federation that was supposed to protect the earth has created massacres on the land of the earth again and again. Why do such things? Isn’t it true that the United Modi liberated ZAFT’s domination? Why did the soldiers of the United Army with weapons cruelly pull the trigger on the unarmed civilians who were already kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and even made the captured civilians work like coolies? , can this be called liberation?"
"This kind of behavior of turning civilians and land into ashes together, whether it is, or Orb, has expressed firm condemnation of what the coalition has done, and has been condemning the countries, forces, and people who have achieved independence from the alliance. We support from a humanitarian stand, we just hope to put an end to this meaningless life of constant war and destruction."
Then Durandal stopped talking, but everyone's eyes turned to the pictures played on the big screen. The heart-wrenching pictures left these reporters speechless. The joint blood and tear accusation also made everyone who saw this scene feel a fire in their hearts. (To be continued.)
