Gundam SEED: Poetry of Tomorrow

Chapter 88 Questioning
Inside the Vesalius.

Ino drove the machine body into the hangar.

The ZAFT soldiers who had already heard the news quickly gathered around.

"...Coming again?"

Looking at the soldiers who suddenly surrounded him, Ino felt an inexplicable familiar feeling.

Although the opponent did not directly put the weapon on his head, the repetition of this scene was indeed a bit high.

"What are you doing?"

Lux, who was wearing aviation uniform, sounded a little serious.

"Sorry Miss Lux, due to ZAFT soldier regulations, we need to conduct a routine interview with Ino Kamal." The leading soldier quickly stepped forward to explain.

Although Lux is just an idol, she is not an ordinary idol, or in other words——

How to put it, because ZAFT's restraint requirements for soldiers are not as strict as those of the Earth United.

This causes many low-level soldiers to care about Lux's attitude.

Coupled with Lacus Klein's identity and background - ordinary officers are really under a lot of pressure when facing Lacus.

Lux's eyes flickered slightly when she heard this: "I understand."

"Thank you for your cooperation."

The soldier said, looking at Ino who was not far away: "Ino Kamal, please let us go."

"I don't seem to have the right to say no."

Ino spread his hands, he had expected this scene in advance.

There is no way, who made me choose a bad move.

I just hope that bringing Lux back can make Cruze and Patrick Sara worry a little more, so that they don't kill themselves without letting go.

After all, although I have the self-confidence to prove the value of my life in the future, if I am kidnapped as soon as I come here, it will be of no use how confident I am.

"and many more."

Just when Ino was about to be taken away, Lux suddenly interrupted the actions of several people: "Please wait a moment, I will go there with you."

"Miss Lux? What are you—"

"This incident is also related to me. As a party involved, I naturally have the responsibility and obligation to be routinely summoned for questioning."

Lux interrupted the soldier officer with a serious expression.

"Uh, this—okay."

Facing Lux's gaze, the soldier and officer hesitated for a while and had no choice but to compromise.

And what Lux said makes sense. After all, they are all captured, so we can't favor one over the other.

"Thank you for your size. Please wait for me for a moment. I will change my clothes and go with you."

Lux said and handed Harrow to Ino: "Mr. Ino, before I come out, please help me take care of it to prevent it from getting lost."

After saying that, Lux ignored the expressions of the soldiers beside her and floated towards the dressing room under the leadership of two female soldiers.

Ino once told himself his identity on the Archangel - a Eurasian Federation spy.

At the same time, Ino is also free to move around on the Archangel, and can drive mobile suits to fight.

From this, it can be inferred that Ino's words were not given out for no reason, and maybe they were true.

But I just don’t know why he returned to ZAFT under those circumstances.

What is the other party’s purpose of returning to ZAFT——

In addition, there is a more important point - how many people within ZAFT know that he is a spy.

The answers to these questions need to be found one by one.

Of course, if Ino returns to ZAFT with a mission, then for the future of ZAFT and PLANT——

Subconsciously, Lux turned her head and looked at the young man surrounded by soldiers in the center.

Ino didn't even notice Lux's gaze.

Holding this silly electronic toy that only said "Hello, Hello, Hello," Ino had only one thought, as if Lux would be more helpful to him than he imagined.

But I just don’t know what the reason was for her to help him - 5 minutes later.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Ino and Lux ​​arrived at the officer's office of the Vesalius.

"I understand, you guys come here first."

Kruse was communicating with the battleship Kamov at this time.

After seeing the two people come in, Cruze was obviously stunned for a moment, then smiled and said to them: "I thought Miss Lux had gone back to rest."

"Thank you Captain Cruze for your strength, but after all, I am also a person who has been captured, so some necessary things still need to be explained."

After Lux finished speaking, she stepped forward and smiled again at Cruze: "At the same time, I also want to thank Captain Cruze in person for your help. Thank you so much this time."

"Miss Lux said something serious, I'm just following orders."

Looking at Lux who was blocking Ino behind him, Cruze smiled calmly and became polite.

But only he knew exactly what he was thinking.

"Captain Cruze is too self-effacing. The orders are given by senior officials, but whether the soldiers are doing their best is beyond the control of senior officials."

Lux's tone was full of gratitude: "So this time you can do your best to help with the rescue. I am deeply grateful for this."

After hearing this, Cruze's eyes under the mask couldn't help but narrow slightly.

Lux's words may sound normal to others, but to Cruze, they sound completely different.

After all, he learned the news that Lux was on the Archangel while he was slacking on the search and rescue mission.

However, he did not show any abnormality. After pondering for a while, Cruze turned his attention to the melon-eaters holding Haro: "Ino Kamal."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Ino quickly stepped forward to respond.

"Welcome to your return, but due to the emergency we may not be able to hold a welcome ceremony for you." Cruze replied with a smile.

"Captain Cruze spoke harshly. I just did what a soldier should do." A trace of surprise flashed in Ino's eyes.

"Sure enough, I did not misjudge you, and you are worthy of ZAFT's training for you."

Kruse's words were full of praise.

"Everything is for ZAFT! For PLANT!"

Listening to Cruze's words, Ino stood up straight and spoke loudly and passionately.

After hearing this, Kruse's smile froze and he couldn't say anything.

If I didn't know what this guy was like, he would really believe it.

Even Lux looked at Ino in surprise.

The person involved did not change his expression, his heart did not beat, he just stood up straighter.

a while.

"Ino Kamal!"

Kruse suddenly changed his tone and said loudly.

"Yes!"

"The battleship Kamov will be on this ship's turn later. Due to the lack of combat troops, you will go to the Kamov later to participate in the pursuit of the Archangel!"

Cruze finished speaking and without waiting for Lux to speak, he quickly said: "Miss Lux, I'm really sorry. Originally, I planned to let Ino return to PLANT with us, but you also know that the battle situation is becoming more and more urgent now, but this ship is also responsible for We are responsible for searching, rescuing and escorting you, so I can only let Ino go over to support you first."

He didn't know what agreement Klein and Ino had reached to let Lacus Klein protect him like this.

But no matter what the agreement was, he could not allow any situation to arise that was beneficial to the Klein faction.

After all, if the Klein faction's right to speak is not secured as soon as possible, many things will be constrained in the future.

"Captain Cruze is serious. I am just a representative of the mourning group. I obey Captain Cruze's arrangements in military matters." Lux replied with a smile.

"I am deeply grateful to Miss Lux for being so considerate."

Cruze smiled and nodded.

The two sides have temporarily reached a negligible agreement.
