Chapter 27: Where We’re Going
0
The sound of Lacus’s song wandered through the office as Ade lay on the couch staring at the empty ceiling in a daze. It was still an hour before the PLANT people came to Anaheim.

For this technology exchange, PLANT side sent a battleship and Aznable personally came to the moon. It’s already the highest treatment they can make. Last year, it was himself who greeted Amuro who came in a battleship, and this year Char came to pick himself up in a battleship. Is this the turn of the tide?

Ade’s NT radar is ready to ring at any time, then Char will be surprised, then he shows a faint smile, and Char will be conquered by his boundless spiritual power and beg him to marry Mineva… what am I thinking! Ade pinched his face and broke out of his daydreaming state – he’s been going off on his own lately.

C.C. had already left for Earth in the morning on the Blue-eyes White Dragon, and Shinn Asuka had taken a month’s leave to protect Mayu, as expected. According to this pattern a few more times, Shinn will become her bodyguard, not my pilot! What a really terrible woman.

Thanks to this woman, his heart had been very tangled this month. Although he has a vague feeling in his heart that things will lead to that way, is there any step missing in the middle? There is a feeling of watching one less episode, and this feeling makes him uncomfortable all over.
0
After that, he tried to talk to C.C. several times, but C.C. always acted naturally as if they were already an old married couple, which made him feel embarrassed to ask. Was he the only one who felt something was missing?
0
During this month, C.C. would sometimes come to his room to spend the night, and sometimes go back to her own room. Of course, he was not discontented, but rather happy, but he was a bit overwhelmed by such an unpredictable attitude. Several times he wanted to send an email to ask Amuro what was this situation, but each time he felt embarrassed and gave up.

When she returns to the moon next month, I must have a good chat with her.

Time flew fast as he thought until a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind. Char was almost there–wait, two! Ade sat up violently and concentrated on feeling the will from the other side of the sky. Yes, there were indeed two, and his “vision” was obviously far away, so the other party had not yet found him.
0
As the other side approached, one of the consciousness and he began to have direct contact, and after a while, it was the second. According to Amuro, Char was relatively blind, so Ade presumed that the second one should be Char. He had no intention of resonating with anyone, and for Ade, radar was all that NT had to offer, and apparently neither did the other party. But these two people’s consciousness is obviously not quite the same as Amuro’s gentle feeling, speaking intuitively, he must not get along with these two people.

After dawdling a little longer, when it was time for the appointed meeting, Ade got up from the sofa and walked slowly to the parlor. Char was supposed to be chilling with Anaheim’s leaders; he didn’t want to attend such events, and he apparently had the privilege of not attending.
0
“Sorry for being late, there’s still some work to be accounted for.” Ade pulled an insincere excuse to walk into the meeting room and towards a seat that was clearly reserved for himself.
0
The people of Anaheim and PLANT were spread out clearly on either side of the room, with the Anaheim side filled with leaders of all levels. Ade’s goal was no longer to get a promotion and a raise now, so he didn’t bother to greet them all. Uraki stood in the corner of the room. He would be accompanying as Ade’s personal bodyguard this time.

“Please don’t mind, an expert like the doctor should have a busy schedule, right? It’s an immense honor for PLANT to be able to borrow Dr. Lingus for a whole month.” A beautiful blond man seated next to Ade stood up and took the initiative to extend his hand, “I am Char Aznable of the PLANT Supreme Convocation, Doctor, I have heard a lot about you, and you are indeed a young talent.”
0
“Adrien Lingus. I’ve heard a lot about you too, Senator Aznable.” Sure enough, it was him. Ade casually shook hands and sat down in his seat, “I didn’t expect that this time it would be you come in person with a battleship, isn’t it too exaggerated?”
0
“Not exaggerated at all! I always tell my men that Dr. Lingus’s worth three to five fleets anyplace! Doctor, don’t be overmodest.” said Char. With his elegant demeanor and sincere tone, it let people feel like a spring breeze, and he behaved as if he didn’t notice that there was an extra NT in the room at all. Ade could only give a secret nod to his act.
0
Behind Char stood a young girl who looked less than twenty years old, combed with short hair, having beautiful posture with a vigorous heroic spirit. The other NT Ade sensed before was her.
0
“Councilor Aznable, with all due respect, may I ask if this beautiful lady is?”
0
“It seems that even a master like the Doctor can hardly resist the temptation of a beautiful woman.” Char smiled derisively at Ade, but Ade could read in the smile what only the two of them understood – I knew you would ask, “This is my secretary, Miss Haman Karn.”
0
“Miss Karn please forgive my rudeness.” Ade looked up at Haman with a sincere look, “May I ask if you’ve fallen in love with someone?”
0
“I’m sorry Dr. Lingus, you’re a wonderful person.” Haman showed a sweet smile, “But I’m only loyal to Mr. Char.”
0
“It seems that I am still not as charming as Senator Aznable.” Ade looked at Char with a helpless face. “Miss Karn is so young, Senator Aznable, you didn’t commit a crime, did you?”
0
“Don’t laugh at me, doctor.” Char’s acting skills were smooth and natural, “As far as I know, Speaker Clyne’s daughter is a fan of Dr. Lingus.”
0
“Hahahaha, I’m really looking forward to it then.” It felt like there was still a big gap between Char and himself, for example, compared to Char, his smile was too fake.
0
Char stood up and made an inviting gesture, “Then Doctor, we shouldn’t stay too long. Time to get moving.”
