After the mission, Setsuna returned to the small house where he temporarily lived, waiting for orders to return to the universe.
But today he stopped at the door and didn't see anything unusual, but there was always a feeling in his heart warning him not to go in.
"Setsuna? Are you back?"
"Shaz Crossroad."
The person who came was actually Setsuna's temporary neighbor, Shaz, who was known as the pseudo-idiot.
Sometimes fate is so wonderful. When she was in AEU, Marina just glanced outside and she met Setsuna. And Setsuna's temporary neighbors were the Crossroads. Her younger brother Shaz would lose his girlfriend Louise in the future.
For a while, my sister would be killed because she knew too much, and she would hate Gundam and [Celestial Being] extremely. But in the end, by chance, he became a member of [Celestial Being] again.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Shaz asked with concern.
"No, there isn't."
"If you need help, you can tell me at any time."
"Need not."
As soon as he was interrupted by Shaz, the alarm sound in his heart stopped for a moment. Maybe he didn't want to have too much contact with Shaz and was anxious to avoid it.
Open the door, safe, close the door, safe.
But the next moment Setsuna relaxed, a hand grabbed Setsuna's wrist from behind, and before he could resist, he locked his arms behind his back and pushed him to the ground.
He wanted to turn his head to see clearly who it was, but a gun was pressed against the back of Setsuna's head, forcing him to give up all resistance.
"Give me a reason."
His eyes widened when he heard this. He originally thought that a certain country's intelligence organization had caught him, but no, this voice was too familiar.
"Maine?"
"Give me a reason not to kill you, Setsuna."
Yang Hui's voice at this time was cold, like an emotionless killer, making people feel frozen all over.
"I'm the Gundam Messenger! I won't give up on the Archangel!"
"This reason is not enough. Setsuna, I will give you another chance. You know why."
The force pressing down on Shi Na did not go away, the muzzle of the gun was pressed firmly against the back of his head. Shi Na also understood why Yang Hui sneaked into his home and pointed the gun at him.
"...Marina Ismail is different from everyone else. She is pursuing a completely different path from us. Maybe...this is another opportunity." Setsuna organized her words a little and replied. This was not made up.
It's not an excuse, but Setsuna really thinks so.
"Another...opportunity?" Yang Hui murmured, smiling to himself, taking back the power to suppress Momo and pulling him up.
"Does this mean I passed?" Shusu looked at Yang Hui and asked.
"That's right, but for a moment, I hope this is the last time. The rules of the organization cannot be in vain because of your willfulness. After returning to the universe, you will receive a week of confinement as punishment."
Yang Hui had no intention of executing Setsuna in the first place. He knew about the fact that he met Marina and announced his family status from the very beginning. If he wanted to stop it, wouldn't it be possible to just change Setsuna and Tieria's mission location?
But Yang Hui didn't, or he originally intended for Setsuna and Marina to meet, because in Setsuna's growth path, Sashes was the first important turning point, and Marina was the second.
Coming here to hold Setsuna accountable this time is just a formality. If Setsuna doesn't give a reasonable explanation, then the rules will be in vain. This is a devastating blow to a highly confidential organization like [Celestial Being].
Although Yang Hui has long wanted to complain that the entire [Celestial being] has become a sieve, but Setsuna, Gundam Messenger, Ptolemy, the newly joined Professor Elfman and others are still pure, so the rules that should be maintained cannot be abandoned.
.
"...Understood." Instanta's mood at this time was also very complicated. He always had a feeling that Yang Hui was just here to test him and had no intention of executing him at all, but he had no evidence.
But... Setsuna won't think so much, he just needs to know that he can still pilot Archangel or Gundam Messenger, that's enough.
"I'm leaving first, don't forget to make a reservation."
"Um."
Yang Hui left Setsuna alone and left alone. Although he was separated from the emperor specifically to deal with Setsuna before returning to the universe, Wang Rumei still needed to be comforted. Although the separation was not long, women...are unreasonable existences.
.
As soon as Yang Hui went out, he almost bumped into Shaz who was about to knock on the door.
"Huh? Isn't this Setsuna's house?" Shazi looked at the unfamiliar Yang Hui and asked in confusion.
"Yes, I am Setsuna's distant cousin. I came here to see him today. Are you his friend?" Merin asked kindly.
"Ah? No, I am his neighbor, so I shouldn't be considered a friend."
"That's right, what you have in your hand..." Yang Hui said while looking at the fast food box in Shaz's hand.
"Ah, these are the waffles my sister made. She made too many, so I'm going to ask Setsuna to try them." Shaz was a little shy. After all, this statement was like throwing away unwanted things to others, treating them as garbage recycling bins.
Same.
"That's right. Thank you very much for taking care of him. Setsuna's kid is just a little too withdrawn and has never had many friends." Yang Hui took the food box and thanked him, with a kind and gentle tone like a handsome big brother next door.
His temperament immediately gained Shaz's favor.
"We are all neighbors everywhere, and we should help each other." Shaz shyly waved his hands.
Yang Hui reopened the door and called out Se Na: "Hey, Se Na, your friend is here to see you. Come out and greet him."
"No, I just..." Shazi blushed and wanted to explain, but the expressionless moment had already come out, and his eyes glanced back and forth between Shazi, Yang Hui and the food box in his hand.
"Take it, this is also someone else's wish. You must finish it." Yang Hui smiled and stuffed the food box into Setsuna's hand.
Obviously, Setsuna didn't understand the situation at this time, but he found that there was a hint of refusal hidden under Yang Hui's friendly smile, so he still nodded.
"That's right, you have to get along well with your neighbors. You are so young, you should make more friends." Yang Hui said while stroking Mosha's messy hair, then turned towards Shaz and pressed Momo's head down, "In the future, Momo
I’ll continue to beg you, that…”
"Ah? I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Shaz Crossroad, just call me Shaz..."
"Shaz-kun? My name is Myron Stewart."
"Hello, Mr. Myron."
"Hmm, you're such a nice young man. Then I'll leave my family to you, Shaz-kun. I have something else to say goodbye to."
"Well, we should be taking care of each other. Have a safe journey, Mr. Myerne."
"See you."
The two watched Yang Hui leave, but when they were alone, they seemed extremely embarrassed.
"That..." Shaz scratched his hair and didn't know what to say.
"……Thanks."
"Ah, as long as you like it, then..."
"Bang~"
Schatz originally thought that the relationship between neighbors could be improved, but Setsuna shattered this illusion by closing the door mercilessly.
But Maierin, who drove away, looked at the sunset outside the window and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Shaz Crossroad? Haha, what an interesting first meeting."
