After Murrue left, Xiao Ran sat silently on the captain's position for a long time. Some thoughts that should have been should have appeared in his head. From time to time, a smirk or sigh of resentment appeared. The other officers on duty at the bridge looked at Xiao Ran without feeling scalp.
"What are you saying about teacher is doing?" Kuzzey quietly walked to Tolle who was on duty together, looking at the mixed expressions on his face. Apparently, Xiao Ran already immersed in his own world.
Tolle scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly, "Should... be... that."
Kuzzey shoved Tolle with dissatisfaction on his face: "What?"
"Aiya, it's already written on teacher's face, yet you still don't understand." Tolle educating Kuzzey like a passerby: "I also like that when Miriallia is not with me on the same place. You not in this situation when you never have a relationship."
"I think it's the captain. The captain always asks First Lieutenant Xiao about everything. The two of them spoke softly, fearing that others would hear the same."
"I feel it's Second Lieutenant Natarle. They look like a pair when quarrel."
"Is it Lieutenant Mu? I saw Lieutenant Xiao Ran often pulling Captain Mu without knowing what to do."
"Well, it makes sense, but I still think that First Lieutenant Xiao and Captain, Second Lieutenant Natal and Captain Mu are more reasonable."
Tolle and Kuzzey nodded their heads and agreed, but they did not speak at all. Where did the voice come from? Suddenly, the duo reacted and turned their heads in the direction of the sound. Looking at the four people who suddenly appeared, the expressions on their faces suddenly sluggish.
The strongest helmsman at SEED, none other than purple-haired young Arnold. Next is the controller officer, brown-haired young Jackie. Followed by the fatty Lowe who was responsible for the shooting and finally Lida, a curly-haired man. Four men were standing behind Tolle and Kuzzey at this time, with a thoughtful look, and also expressed their opinions from time to time.
Kuzzey pointed at the four of them and opened his mouth to shout, but in the next second, four good guys covered his mouth and pressed it to the ground: "Shhhh!"
"Yes, yes" Tolle sighed and lowered his head helplessly.
Xiao Ran already quiet in his own world, hadn't noticed the farce next to him. Not to mention that after the farce, six people gathered in a group to talk more gossip than women. If it wasn't for Admiral Halberton's shuttle arriving at the Archangel, perhaps the boring six will continue indefinitely.
"Bridge, Admiral Halberton's shuttle is about to arrive. Open the second hangar for containment. The officer on duty stays on guard for the alert. First Lieutenant Xiao Ran, please go to the second hangar quarantine immediately.
The sound of Badgiruel's voice on the radio seemed to be full of magic. It directly made the bridge nervous from a leisurely look. A few guys who were gossip and gossip all spread out and sat back to their places. Starting work directly, Xiao Ran was also interrupted by the messy thoughts in his head by Badgiruel's voice. He stood up and left with a sigh.
It was already a few minutes after arriving at the destination. Two unattended students, Kira, Miriallia and Sai, also stood in a row and stood behind Murrue, Badgiruel and Mu. However, what makes Xiao Ran surprise is there were even more than a dozen young people in mechanic uniforms here.
Xiao Ran remembered what happened to these young people: 'I didn't notice that there were so many technical college students in the people that Kira rescued. They don't have veteran certification. Are they stay on the boat without leaving?'
The clatter of footsteps sounded in the quiet space, and almost everyone waiting here turned their heads. Xiao Ran felt a little uncomfortable smile when nearly twenty pair of eyes stared at him: "Sorry, I was a little late, and the elevator that came down seemed busy."
"Huh." Badgiruel turned her head back and looked at the small shuttle machine that was docking slowly behind the compartment without squinting.
Mu beckoned Xiao Ran to the past. However, Xiao Ran looked at the white military uniforms of the three men standing together and looked at his utterly different service. He finally pointed at Kira's direction and stood over.
Seeing Xiao Ran's action also shrugged his shoulders and smiled, Mu nodded and turned around. At the same time, Murrue looked at Xiao Ran's figure and smiled slightly.
Walked to Kira and stood up, and Miriallia whispered, "Teacher, do you think we can leave here? It's been a long time since I saw my parents, and I don't know what happened to them."
Xiao Ran replied with a smile: "It should be no problem because Admiral Halberton is a good and sober person in the Earth Alliance. He's not a person who will embarrass us. Don't worry."
"I'm glad to hear it from you, teacher." Miriallia patted her chest and smiled. Sai, who was standing aside, smiled relievedly. Only Kira was silent from beginning to end.
When Xiao Ran saw the appearance of Kira, he knew that Kira was worried that the Earth Alliance will not let him go. Perhaps there was still a little confused about whether to continue piloting Gundam.
The reason Xiao Ran didn't say anything because every way that Kira thinks will be useless. Flay definitely stay on Archangel and Sai will follow her. As a friend Miriallia, Tolle and Kuzzey will naturally not leaving. With these, Kira definitely not going either, after all, Kira is not a person who will give up on his friend.
Since Xiao Ran did not change the plot, the development of the scheme will advance to a destined direction.
When the compartment was opened, Admiral Halberton, in a pen-shaped military uniform, slowly walked down the shuttle. After seeing his former subordinate safe and sound, he smiled unconsciously and nodded. Then he went to Murrue's group of three.
Murrue looked at Halberton, who was both senior official and an elder to her. She couldn't help but showing some excitement: "Salute!"
Halberton responded to the crowd with a smile and then talked to the three people after they all put down their hands. The voice of several people was not loud or small, especially in such a quiet situation. Xiao Ran and others could hear it very clearly. Although he could listen to it, Xiao Ran's eyes looking ahead were already completely empty.
Rarely though nothing in his mind, Xiao Ran staring blankly and staring straight ahead, suddenly felt a dark in front of him. When he returned, he saw Admiral Halberton standing in front of himself and others with a smile on his back.
"You are the students of Heliopolis and the teacher of the academy?" Admiral Halberton looked at the students with a kind smile and looked at Xiao Ran. He didn't stop waiting for anyone to speak and directly said: "We have confirmed the news about your family. They're safe. We also transmitted news about you to your family, and I think you will soon leave here to meet them."
"It's great!" The students in mechanic uniforms standing behind Xiao Ran could not help but screamed, jumping and hugging. Everyone had a happy smile on their faces. Kira, who has always been attentive, also relaxed a lot and smiled unconsciously.
Xiao Ran also smiled and turned to look at the student army behind him, as if he was happy for everyone. But under the smile, those gentle eyes also slowly scanned everyone, especially the expressions on the faces of these students.
Xiao Ran was slightly relieved when he saw that the smiles on the faces of the student army were not cover-ups or performances.
Halberton, who had not disturbed the crowd, tells the group: "Thank you very much for helping Archangel to come here in such a bad situation. Thank you for everything."
As soon as Halberton's words came out, most of the students present froze. Still, a few minutes later, they became excited and enthusiastic. They did not expect that a Admiral would be so kind to them, and thanks like them, which made them overwhelmed and moved.
Halberton smiled and turned to look at Xiao Ran and Kira: "Xiao Ran and Kira Yamato, I have read Murrue's report and thank you for your help. Without you, everyone will not be here."
"Where you are so kind, we help ourselves too." Xiao Ran smiled politely. He then said, "Besides, I didn't play any major role. If you want to thank, thank Kira for it."
"Kira?" Halberton nodded thoughtfully, looking at Kira sincerely: "Thank you for your help."
Kira, who was obviously too little experienced, seemed a little helpless: "You're welcome, sir."
