An Unscientific Mechanic

"Second Lieutenant Suzuhara, can you explain a little bit what happened..." Misato looked at Suzuhara Sakura.

"..." (Sakura Suzuhara briefly reported the situation just now)

"Sorry, I didn't expect such a problem in the bridge..." Ritsuko listened to Suzuhara Sakura's explanation, and turned to look at Ikari Shinji who was looking out the window.

"No...it's okay, deputy chief, it's just that he wasn't injured anyway."

"Then, the second lieutenant takes the test subject BM03 back to the isolation room."

"learn."

After Ikari Shinji left with Suzuhara Sakura, Ritsuko called up the monitoring and scanning data on the bridge.

"Captain Katsuragi, look at this."

"Huh?...This is?" Misato looked at the data just now in shock. "Although it is a human being, it has an AT position that is stronger than the apostles? Use the AT position to change the direction of gravity in the space around the body? Use the AT position to fix your body on the floor? Is this really something humans can do?"

"...Looking at it this way, can that DSS collar really serve as insurance?" Ritsuko simulated it, judging by the strength of the AT position just now, the self-destruct of the DSS collar might even touch Shinji's hair. Can't hurt.

"I'm afraid that the explosives in the isolation room can't be used as insurance either. Hinata-kun, please take care of the bridge, command the hull repair work, and the hull sails to the third assembly point. Recover the No. 2 aircraft." Misato looked down at Hinata.

"Understood, the command of the bridge is handed over to the navigator."

"Ritsuko, although I'm a little anxious, the meeting is coming sooner."

"Well, I thought he would have a lot of doubts, but it seems that there are more doubts on our side." Akagi Ritsuko was also a little at a loss, but Ritsuko felt that it was necessary to advance the interview time with Ikari Shinji of.

After all, the current situation is really a bit incomprehensible, and Ritsuko is also very concerned about the maturity that Ikari Shinji sometimes accidentally reveals, which does not belong to a 14-year-old boy.

After all, Asuka, who was also once swallowed by the apostle (EVA), had a problem with her mind stopping to move forward. And this Ikari Shinji seems to have no appearance.

"This is the first machine? It's an interesting way to use it." Ikari Shinji looked at what Ritsuko showed, using the S2 mechanism on the first machine as the power source of AAA WUNDER. "However, since the No. 1 machine can be used as the power source of this ship, why was the moving time of the EVA only a pitiful 69 seconds? Is this forcing a burden on our pilots?"

"..."×3

"According to the existing theory, although the S2 organs are all installed on the EVA series in advance, it is necessary for EVA to surpass human beings and reach at least a state of imitation to complete the activation and awakening of the S2 organs. Before that, EVA could only use batteries to The body supplies energy."

"Oh... so, then why use a wired cable? Even if it can't provide continuous energy, it would be nice to install a diesel generator on the back. Then, it's okay to extend the EVA's activity time to 15 minutes? Then, When meeting the eighth apostle, we don't have to work so hard..."

By the way, this question was asked by the Q version of Shinji Ikari... In the two days of living on the Enterprise, Shinji Ikari was very pleased with the simple, rude and direct way of doing things by the members of the integration department, and the concept of equipment that prioritizes practicality After all, Shinji Ikari was very puzzled by the awkward performance of eva in the past.

In the past, Shinji Ikari expected "straightforward and easy-to-interpret" communication. I will do whatever you ask me to do. If you treat me well, I will treat you well.

As for the attitude of giving priority to the practicality of equipment, he found out from the combat data of the General Assembly Department that such an advanced warship would use simple link racks to fix various temporary equipment on the surface of the hull during battle.

As a result, Ikari Shinji thought about it briefly, why is it obviously a large robot used to save the world, but it is powered by something inexplicable such as an external power supply.

As long as the motivation is built in, the battle against the apostles will not be so time-critical.

"Because of the Vatican Treaty, the strategic humanoid decisive battle weapon EVA is not allowed to move for more than five minutes without an external power supply. The maximum movable time for a conventional power supply should not be longer than two minutes." Ritsuko sighed.

"...In other words, it's not because of technical reasons that eva can only move for a short while? Is the person who made this treaty out of his mind? What if the EVA didn't hit the apostle because it was out of power because it was knocked down in half, resulting in the third time What about the impact?"

"This is politics, Ikari Shinji-kun." Ritsuko wanted to sigh even more. You know, from the perspective of those who know both the Vatican Treaty and the Human Completion Plan, the Vatican Treaty means that human beings bind their own hands and feet, reducing the number of human beings to win the war against the apostles. The practice of triumphant hope. "The government at that time, compared with the apostles who don't know when they will come, they still value the NERV with the strategic weapon EVA more. They are afraid that the NERV will use the EVA to rise up and overthrow the existing government."

"In the final analysis, this is your problem of hiding the truth from the government, right? Wouldn't it be better to build ten EVAs to fight the apostles or develop weapons that can penetrate the AT position? Isn't the positron gun able to penetrate the AT position of the apostles? Wouldn't it be possible to destroy the apostles by producing a few more units?

It would be irresponsible to rely on untrained 14-year-olds piloting giant robots and fighting angels to save the world. "

"..."×3

"What do you mean by silence, come and refute me. Do you want to tell me that you are the chosen children, and you are the only ones who can drive EVA? Even a 14-year-old kid like me who has too much self-awareness says You can’t say such complacent words.”

"..."

"You really thought a lot about it, you idiot Shinji."

"Asuka!"

Asuka pulled her hands out of her pockets, stepped forward quickly, and punched the special glass more than ten centimeters thick into cracks.

"Sorry, I just can't help it."

"No, it's me who should be sorry." Shinji Ikari put his hand through the glass, trying to reach Asuka's face. "I'm back~"

(Wow, as expected of Shinji-kun, you learned this trick so quickly, you can learn this trick so quickly——by watching the Q version of Ikari Shinji flirting with Ian.)

Asuka stood there in the posture of punching, and the left cheek was touched by Ikari Shinji's right hand.

Asuka's expression gradually softened, and she spoke softly. "Welcome back."

Then, Asuka saw Suzuhara Sakura covering her mouth in surprise, and suddenly turned her head to see Ritsuko who stood up from her chair in shock and Misato who was shocked.

Realizing that she had been teased just now, Asuka blushed instantly, and hurriedly stood on the cabinet in front of the isolation room.

"Stupid... stupid Shinji, what are you doing! This... this..."

"Sure enough, Asuka is still Asuka."

"You... what do you mean by that expression, you stupid Shinji! Leave your little tricks to your favored little girl!"

"Does your left eye still hurt?"

"Whether my eyes hurt or not has nothing to do with you!"

"Sure enough..." She is as arrogant as a textbook, Asuka.

The Q version of Shinji's strong desire to survive made him swallow the second half of the sentence. I feel that if I say that sentence, I am afraid that Asuka will not be able to kill herself.
