Chapter 258 [The Tail of the Serpent] arrives

The door opened and she was very happy to see Yang Hui coming back with two plates. Lux was indeed hungry, but she was a little unhappy because Yang Hui brought two plates!

Really, do you think you are a girl with a big appetite in his eyes?

But when he saw the people following Yang Hui, he immediately became interested again.

"Eat."

Yang Hui placed a piece of food in front of Lux and started eating with another plate.

This made Lux blush and feel shy. It turned out that she had misunderstood Yang Hui, and she ate her meal silently with her head down.

"Kira, this is Lux, Lux Klein."

"Hello, this is the first time we meet. Please take care of me. My name is Kira Yamato."

"Hello, Kira, just call me Lux."

Seeing Lux put on the mask again, the corners of Yang Hui's mouth twitched. This is really a monster. Thousands of people and faces can be picked at his fingertips, and there is no obstacle at all in switching states.

"Kira, are you also an adjuster?"

"Yes, it is."

"Then why do you want to board this ship? Isn't this the Earth Army's ship?"

"Um...this..." Kira didn't really want to answer this question, so she looked at Yang Hui for help.

"I took him and his friends on board the ship. In order to survive, they had to board the ship," Yang Hui said.

"That's it...it's hard, right?"

As soon as these words came out, not only Kira was stunned, but also Yang Hui paused in his eating movements and put down the tableware.

"...Hmm." Kira nodded with difficulty.

"Fighting...is a sad thing."

"I also... don't want to fight, but..."

"Kira is really a gentle person." Lux comforted her.

"Eh?"

"You obviously don't want to fight, but you still want to join the fight. Is there any unavoidable reason?"

"……Um."

"Yang Hui?" Lux looked at Yang Hui with a smile. Although there was no responsibility or anger, Yang Hui could see the silent questioning and accusation from Lax's smile.

"Who is born in this chaotic and turbulent world who is not fighting? Aren't you the same?" Yang Hui turned his head and looked at Lux.

"..."

Hearing this, Lux's mask was removed and she regained her mature temperament. A sad and sad atmosphere spread in the room.

"I don't like others to control my destiny, and I don't want to have to hide under the table and pray for others to save me when danger comes. I want to control my own destiny, that's all."

After saying that, Yang Hui quickly finished the food and left with the plate, but before leaving the room, he still relaxed the heavy atmosphere.

"By the way, Kira is Aslan's and I's good friend in elementary school, and Lux ​​is also Aslan's fiancée. Speaking of which... the world is big, but it's really small, haha."

After Yang Hui left, Kira stepped back from the shock and suddenly turned back to look at Lux.

"Eh? Eh~!!!?"

"Ah, so Kira, you are also Aslan's friend? It's really a fate." Lux asked with an innocent smile.

"You...I...your...fiancée? Aslan's!?"

"Yes."

"Well... this is really..." Kira smiled bitterly, agreeing very much with what Yang Hui said. The world is really big, but sometimes, the small ones are really pitiful.

"Aslan...I saw him."

"Really? That must be a good meeting, right? Can you tell me about it?"

"...Well, it's just...different from what you thought. It's not that friendly."

Then, Kira began to talk to Lux about everything she encountered in Heliopolis, why she joined the battle, and how she and Aslan... became enemies.

Perhaps as an adjuster, Kira also opened up the conversation, without any doubts about Lux, and told Lux ​​everything she had experienced.

Lux just listened quietly, occasionally speaking to comfort Kira, but most of the time she just acted as a listener, understanding how this kind-hearted young man was forced to be involved in the vortex of the war.



Yang Hui left the room and went directly to the bridge. He had already received one of the surprises sent by Madoc, and the second one was next.

"Yang Hui, you're here, how is she doing?" Ma Liu asked Yang Hui.

"No problem, Kira is watching her."

"Kira..."

To be honest, Malu was still worried about leaving Kira to guard Lux. She knew Kira was kind and not a soldier. If Lux made some excessive demands, Kira would not be able to understand the meaning.

, it is very likely to bring danger to them.

Moreover... Lux and Kira are both adjusters. What if... Lux instigates Kira to rebel? What should the Archangel do?

"Don't worry, I said hello, Lux won't mess around."

"……That's good."

"By the way, Captain Lamias, have you received any communication requests from nearby?" Yang Hui asked. He had notified [Serpent's Tail] early in the morning to be waiting for them nearby. Calculate the time at this time.

You should have already been contacted.

"not yet……"

"Beep beep beep..."

"Captain, received a communication request from an unknown signal!"

It was said that Cao Cao had arrived. As soon as Yang Hui asked about [The Tail of the Serpent], the other party sent a communication request.

"Take it over."

"yes."

The screen lit up, and the girl on the screen had short brown hair, making it difficult to tell her gender.

"This is the [Snake's Tail]. Is this the ship Mr. Yang Hui is on?"

"Long time no see, Fenghua, why are you in charge of communications? Where's Gai? Where's Elijah? Where's Reed and Loretta? Are all the adults on your ship dead?" Yang Hui teased.

"I am the agent of [Snake's Tail], and I am naturally responsible for the contact with the client. Please don't underestimate me." The girl turned into an angry steamed dumpling and complained to Yang Hui.

Kazehana Azeh, an intern team member of [Serpent's Tail] and the only daughter of another team member Loretta Azeh. Although she is not an official member yet, she has been active as the manager of [Serpent's Tail].

Agent Cong Yungui conducts business negotiations. Although he is young, he has insight and action capabilities that exceed those of adults.

"Hey, hey, hey! Master Yang Hui, we are listening!"

"If you want to scold us behind our backs, there's no way!"

As the rough and fiery voices sounded, the thick and strong man with short blond hair and the brown-skinned woman with a single ponytail pushed past Fenghua Azhe and occupied the screen.

The rough and arrogant man is Lid Weller, a formal member of [Serpent's Tail] and a former sergeant of the Earth Alliance. He was dismissed from his post in the past because he was addicted to alcohol and caused trouble, but due to his high reputation, he still has a high reputation within the Alliance.

Human connections, due to their excellent intelligence-gathering abilities, have always been the intelligence core of [Serpent's Tail].

The woman's name is Loretta Azera, Fenghua Azera's mother. She is a single mother. She is a natural person who is good at fighting skills and explosives. She is a hot mom. She is mainly responsible for stand-up combat and undercover. She occasionally wears enhanced clothing.

The armor supports combat and is good at taking care of people. He is very popular among mercenaries. Many people aspire to become Fenghua Azhe's stepfather, but no one has succeeded yet.

"Haha, so as an adult, can't you be a little self-conscious?" Yang Hui joked.

"Tch, you annoying brat, I wouldn't have accepted your commission if I had known!"

"My daughter is still the cutest!"

"You...what are you doing? Mom, you are on a commission now!"

"Step aside."

A cold voice sounded, and Li De Weiler and Ya Zhe, mother and daughter, simultaneously moved away from their positions, revealing the voice behind them.

His stern face and orange sunglasses cannot hide his strong and handsome appearance. His dark brown hair is not well taken care of and looks a bit messy, but it does not affect his tough temperament at all, but adds a touch of chicness.

Cong Yungai, the leader of the mercenary unit [Serpent Tail], is deeply trusted by his comrades. He has a long-standing reputation in the underground world for completing impossible tasks. As the absolute core of the team, Cong Yungai is even more famous.

Has the reputation of "the strongest mercenary".

"Long time no see, Chai, you look like you're doing well."

"Well, have you started entrusting it now?"

"The commission begins and serves as the escort of this ship until it escapes ZAFT's pursuit and arrives at the Atlantic Federation lunar base."

"Understood, the commission begins."

This is Cong Yunqi's style. He is direct and straightforward. Even if he is a close acquaintance, he will not exchange too many greetings. Everything is focused on the task.

However, Cong Yunqiu does not accept all commissions. Unlike others who are willing to accept all kinds of "dirty work" for the sake of money, Cong Yunqiu often considers whether to accept mission requests based on moral principles and political perspectives, so he rarely accepts intentional "dirty jobs".

"Killing", suppression or other sabotage tasks, which also provides [Serpent's Tail] with a good reputation.

After the communication ended, everyone looked at Yang Hui.

"...Didn't you tell them?" Yang Hui asked Ma Liu.

"Uh... I haven't had time yet..." Ma Liu was ashamed. She had indeed forgotten to inform the crew about this matter. In addition, Lux was rescued later, and she really forgot about the incident for a while.

Immediately, Ma Liu informed everyone about Yang Hui's hiring of [Snake Tail], and it did not cause any disturbance. After all, Ma Liu was the captain and their military commander. They only had to obey the orders, and the mercenaries

The guards also added a layer of security for them, and they didn't pay for it, so a fool wouldn't be happy about it.

At this moment, a new hope appeared in front of everyone.

"captain!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"The encrypted pulse signal was received... This is! The encrypted pulse signal of the Earth Army's Eighth Orbital Fleet!"

"Are you sure it's correct?"

"Can we track it?" Bucky Lulu asked quickly.

"Doing it...start parsing!"

"...Zizzi...zizi...here is...the advance guard of the Eighth Fleet...Montgomery...the Archangel...answer..."

"It's the troops under Brigadier General Halbarton!"

"Ah ho~!"

"Is he looking for us?"

"Where's the location?"

"Is it Major Copperman's unit?"

"Very good!"

The heavy hearts of Malu, Bucky Lulu, Arnold and others who had been here were finally released, and they felt like they had finally found home.

But...only Yang Hui showed a worried expression after everyone else.
