Yang Hui took Bucky Lulu to go to Maddock to discuss the refugee deal, but his younger brother took him directly to Maddock's office. As soon as they entered, the smoky environment made the two of them frown.
"Madoc, do you want your guests to stay in such an environment to discuss business?"
"There's no way, we're just garbage collectors, how good can the environment be?" Madoc shrugged casually, but he still turned the ventilation system to the maximum, making the indoor air a little fresher.
"This clumsy temptation can be put away, Madoc, don't think I'm easy to fool."
Yang Hui did not enter the room, but waited for Madoc to come out. He knew that this office was not a room for receiving guests at all. Compared with the smoky room, the reception room was not luxurious, but it was definitely clean and tidy.
"Of course, I have no intention of fooling you, kid Yang Hui, you are the most distinguished regular customer, but she... haha." Madoc looked at Bucky beside Yang Hui and sneered.
"What do you mean?" Baji Lulu frowned.
"It's not interesting. Although we are garbage collectors and do whatever it takes to survive, we are not blind and our ears are not deaf. After all, some businesses seem to be sweet and sweet, but are actually hot potatoes, right? Soldiers of the Earth Army
Miss."
"you!"
Bucky Lulu subconsciously wanted to draw her gun, but Yang Hui stopped her.
"How did you find out?" Yang Hui's brows also furrowed. He had been prepared to hide the identities of Archangel and Bucky Lulu before he came here.
"It's nothing, I just heard some interesting information." Madoc shrugged, then immediately put away his casual and wanton look, and became extremely serious, "So, Yang Hui, is the transaction object going to be you, or...
she?"
"……it's me."
"I understand, please come this way."
"What's going on?" Bucky Lulu asked Yang Hui, which had two meanings. One was asking Yang Hui why the other party knew her identity, and the other was that the other party's attitude was not very friendly towards the Earth Army.
"Let's talk about it later. Now let's solve the refugee problem first."
"……good."
Arriving at the clean and tidy reception room, Yang Hui took Bucky Lulu and sat across from Maddock.
"What? It's strange. Do I know your identity?" Seeing Bucky Lulu staring at him with burning eyes, Madoc shook his head and smiled.
"..." Although there was no answer, the silence and eyes had already told Madoc the answer.
"Seven hours ago, [Heliopolis] collapsed. Rumor has it that the Atlantic Federation and ZAFT did it."
"This..." With a simple message, Bucky Lulu already got the answer. It seems that the understanding of the scrap recycling dealers union is still too superficial, and the other party also has its own intelligence system.
"Okay, Madoc, there is a group of refugees on the ship. I would like to entrust you to take them in and send them back to Orb for a price."
"It can't be done."
"……What happened?"
Yang Hui didn't think that Maddock was being careless. If he refused directly, it meant that he really couldn't do it, instead of waiting for a price.
"The last batch of scheduled ships departed two days ago, and there will be no ships heading to Earth in a short period of time."
"not a single one?"
"No, we also have various situations."
"……okay, I get it."
After the conversation ended, Yang Hui left directly with Bucky Lulu, but before leaving, Madoc gave Yang Hui a piece of information.
"If you're in a hurry, walk away from the wreckage area. You might be surprised."
"……grateful."
"You're welcome, after all, you are our most distinguished guest."
After leaving, Baji Lulu quickly asked: "Wait! What's going on? Did the talks collapse? Or is it because of my identity..."
"It has nothing to do with you. Although the Earth Federation, especially the Atlantic Federation, has always been the most unpopular customer of the scrap recyclers union, it will only make things difficult and raise prices."
"What's going on? Why can't we accept refugees?"
"I haven't told you before that the Waste Recyclers Union is actually divided into two groups, namely the Earth Faction and the Space Faction. The two factions have their own systems and both want to be the boss, so the relationship between them is not very good, but both parties
They have not completely severed contact with each other. There are still exchanges and transactions, so the two sides have drawn a boundary and cannot cross it easily. Every once in a while, a batch of regular ships come and go between each other. If you miss it, you can't cross the boundary again. This is the rule.
,Those who violate the rules will be expelled from the union."
"Is there still such a relationship?"
"right."
"But that person before was not..." Baji Lulu was talking about Luo, because Yang Hui entrusted him to go to the earth, and the other party also agreed.
"He is an exception. Luo is the only one who does not have a clear faction but has a good relationship with both parties."
It has to be said that people with good luck have privileges wherever they go. For example, Luo, his best luck often finds some hard-to-find treasures for both factions. Not only that, relying on his good luck,
It also helped both parties resolve many conflicts.
In addition, Luo's skills are the first to be recognized by all scrap recyclers. Both the cosmic faction and the earth faction have asked him for help and have many friends, so he becomes the only special case.
"Then can he..."
"It's difficult. You saw his ship. It can't hold many people. It's impossible to take all the refugees away."
"……I see."
Baji Lulu also gave up the idea of asking Luo to help. After all, the handling of refugees may cause disputes if they are not careful. It is impossible to take away all the refugees, so who will be taken away? Who will be left behind? How to determine this?
Instead of letting them argue and still not be able to completely get rid of the trouble of refugees, it is better to keep them all temporarily. It happens that some volunteers can supplement the vacant personnel of the Archangel.
…
Returning to the Archangel, Baji Lulu reported the situation to Malu.
Of course, now that we were on the bridge, there were many people talking, so she only reported the situation of material supplies and the inability to accept refugees.
"Eh? Can't we get off the boat?"
"how so?"
"Didn't we agree that we can disembark here?"
"Liars! You are all liars!"
…
"Quiet!" Baji Lulu shouted angrily, causing everyone who was arguing to quiet down.
"Let me explain." At this time, Yang Hui took the initiative to stand up. After all, they were all citizens of Orb.
"Child? Who are you? What qualifications do you have to explain..."
"My father is Yang Hongyu, am I qualified?" Yang Hui glanced coldly at the shouting man. He was the one who led the quarrel just now.
"Yang Hongyu? Who is it? Don't think..."
"You are the young master of the Yang family!"
That person also wanted to shout at Yang Hui that he had always been at the bottom of society and it was normal not to know the people above him. He also wanted to take this opportunity to gain some benefits for himself.
But he had never heard of Yang Hongyu. Others had heard of it. Among the refugees who were rescued, there were also a few people with good status. For example, the doctor who treated Ma Liu's gunshot wounds after boarding the ship was Orb Platoon.
A doctor of note.
"It's me, Doctor Brunotte. Long time greetings."
"As expected, it's you, Master Yang. What's going on? Why do we have to stay on the Earth Army's ship?"
"The situation is a bit complicated. There are no ships going to Earth in a short period of time, so we can't hand you over to them, but I promise that you will be sent back to Orb safely." Yang Hui promised everyone.
"...I understand, Master Yang, I believe you."
With the first one, there was naturally a second one, and they all accepted Yang Hui's promise, but they couldn't resist some people who wanted to be evil, but Yang Hui just said a word and stopped these people.
"You can disembark now at your own risk."
Getting off the ship by yourself? What a joke! The Scrap Recyclers Union and the others don’t understand that in their eyes they are just a group of hyenas collecting junk. Instead of getting off the ship and staying with the hyenas, it’s safer to stay on the ship.
After solving the refugee problem, Yang Hui went back to his room to rest. He had been busy since boarding the ship and didn't get much rest.
Baji Lulu also wanted to take a rest, but she still had something to report to Malu and Mu.
"What? Orb is..."
"um, yes."
After hearing Bucky Lulu's report, Malu and Mu were no longer calm. If what they saw and done by the scrap recycling dealers' union shocked them, Orb was also horrified by the fact that Orb was developing his own mobile suit.
"What is all this? Is Orb planning to start a war?" Mu said, covering his face with a headache.
Then, Baji Lulu hesitated and told the two of them all the explanation Yang Hui gave her.
After listening, the two fell silent.
"Haha, what an incredible kid. Is he really only 16 years old?" Mu said with a self-deprecating smile.
"The location is different. It's really hard to imagine what kind of environment he grew up in." Ma Liu sighed and said.
This sentence resonated with Bucky Lulu. She was born in a military family and received an iron-blooded education from an early age. She lost the childhood that a normal child should have. When other children were playing with their friends, she had to face
Mountains of study materials and training lists that will never be completed.
But...she felt that what she had experienced might be nothing in front of Yang Hui, because Yang Hui's knowledge and skills were much better than hers.
When she thought of this, Baji Lulu felt an inexplicable feeling of distress in her heart.
It feels inexplicably different, but Yang Hui is still a teenager and has to go through so much, so what is the meaning of her being a soldier?
"Captain, do we want to report this information?" Baji Lulu asked rarely. This time, she was shaken.
"Report it, don't forget our identities." Malu said this tiredly, there was no other way, this is the duty of a soldier.
"……learn."
"By the way, didn't you buy anything else? Didn't you say there are many complete MAs? They can increase our combat effectiveness." Mu asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was met with the looks of Ma Lu and Baji Lulu as if they were looking at fools.
"Who's going to drive?"
"Do you have money?"
"Forehead……"
Mu was embarrassed. He was the only regular pilot on the Archangel. Kira still forced him to pilot the Strike Gundam. If it weren't for volunteers, the crew members of the Archangel wouldn't be able to gather together, and...
Mu almost forgot that the supplies for the Archangel were all paid for by Yang Hui.
