Chapter 482: Maru and Bakilulu
After the two talked about recent events along the way, Baki Lulu finally looked in the direction of Xiaoliu.
"Who is this?"
"Excuse me, my name is Xiaoliu, and I am the staff member of Lady Cagalli."
He Kui leaned slightly while operating the machine.
"Little Six."
Baki Lulu looked at Xiaoliu who was wearing sunglasses with a little surprise.
"Here we are."
While Bakirulu was still confused, Cagalli had already opened the door of a secret hangar. As the huge steel door slowly opened, what came into view was not the Archangel.
After all, the Archangel is under strict custody, and people with unidentified identities like Bugylulu certainly cannot go there. Even He Kui, who is a junior, cannot go there.
They were heading to the battleship development department of Akebono, where Maru worked.
As the captain, when there is no combat, Maru also serves as an assistant here to provide reference for the design of the new battleship.
As she was originally a civil servant, she was very familiar with this.
The Shuguang Society covers a large area. When you just enter the gate, there are no maintenance staff around, only soldiers guarding on both sides of the gate.
"Lord Cagalli, who is this?"
Faced with the sudden appearance of Cagalli, the two gatekeepers were startled and then looked at Bakirulu. Although Bakirulu was not wearing a military uniform at this time, the iron-blooded aura still naturally revealed itself.
"are friends."
Although it was just three simple words and there was not even any evidence to support it, Cagalli's reputation in Orb was stronger than Lacus's, so naturally she passed the guard post and entered the development department very smoothly.
At this time, the corridor in the development department was quiet, with only signs hanging in front of the doors of each room saying Pneumatic Group, Weapons Group, Armor Group, etc.
He Kui was not very familiar with battleships, after all, he had been studying MS.
But the Kusanagi should have been built.
But what they should currently study more is the ships that operate within the atmosphere.
But if I'm not mistaken, they should make helping Orb rebuild Heliopolis a condition when negotiating with ZAFT.
Although ZAFT is currently putting the blame on Cruze, there is nothing wrong with them also having some responsibility.
We can only wait and see that Orb's space battleship will flourish again.
While He Kui was thinking, the three of them walked all the way to the innermost consulting room. There was no doubt that this was where Ma Liu worked.
"Then go in."
Without giving Bakirulu a chance to say wait a minute, Cagalli knocked on the door.
"Ms. Maru~?"
".Please come in."
When Mari was puzzled for a moment after hearing that it was Cagalli's voice, her voice soon followed.
After packing up all the work documents, Malu looked up at the slowly opening door, and soon a look as if he had seen a ghost appeared on his face.
"Natal?! Why...why are you here?!"
As expected, his voice broke, and the surprise in his tone was clearly visible. I believe that if it weren't for the shadow, Maru might have thought he had really seen a ghost.
After all, previous intelligence showed that Bugylulu was the captain of the Archangel, and even came to fight Orb once, although he was unsuccessful.
"Maru. Long time no see."
Baki Lulu also had a complicated expression at this time, but there was still a sense of relief in her heart.
It wasn't happiness or joy, but a kind of warmth like being home that made her couldn't help but smile slightly.
Perhaps she really didn't expect to see Maru again.
"It's a long story, but it's basically"
Cagalli told Maru about how she took Bakilu away and Aegis.
Of course, the part about Xiaoliu was concealed.
"Anyway, although we didn't let the Sahak family take Miss Bakilulu away this time, no matter what the reason is, it's better for us to go find our father."
Cagalli finally said.
Since Bakirolu was brought here by Aegis, Cagalli definitely can't protect her by herself.
If they don’t look for their father then Sahak will come looking for them.
Upon hearing this, Malu nodded with a complicated expression, then looked at Bakilulu, his eyes seemed to have a thousand words to say.
At this time, Cagalli and Xiaoliu also cooperated and temporarily came out of the room.
"Do you think Dad will save Baki Lulu?"
Cagalli asked worriedly. "Yes, if not he would have stopped it long ago."
“Why doesn’t he say it himself?”
Cagalli suddenly realized something while she was talking.
"He wants me to take these favors?"
There is a difference between Uzumi saving Bakirulu directly and Cagalli saving Bakirulu herself.
So for the sake of his daughter's reputation, he also took advantage of the Sahak family a little.
It can be said that it is well-intentioned.
He Kui's cooperation with the opponent is getting better and better.
And Cagalli gradually began to become more sensitive.
"."
"Are you angry?"
He Kui said with a smile as he looked at the girl frowning and looking unhappy.
"No. I just think I can make myself liked by others."
"And I always feel stupid."
Cagalli said sullenly.
"Perhaps so."
Hearing that He Kui actually agreed, Kagali glared at him murderously.
"Cagari isn't stupid, she's just straightforward."
"Then if something like this happens in the future, you must tell me first!"
Cagalli said with a pout.
"it is good."
"And dad, aren't you afraid of being discovered by leaving Baki Lulu here?"
Cagalli quickly continued to ask.
"She's changed so much that few people would notice."
"And even if they find out, what can we do?"
They had already discovered the Archangel during the last attack and defense of Orb.
We have protested so many times, both openly and secretly.
Orb had no intention of obeying anyway.
The next step was to use Cagalli's voice to relax the guard on Bakirolu, giving her more space to move around, which would be considered fulfilling her promise.
This is not difficult. After all, Bugylulu's abilities are obvious to all, and she suffered a lot in the previous offensive and defensive battles.
Moreover, Bakilulu's attack at that time could be said to be coercion by Murtagh, and it did not cause much substantial damage to Orb.
In addition, very few people knew that she was the captain at that time, so there were many ways to cleanse herself.
The two were talking outside the room, while the two inside the room were also reminiscing about the past.
"Where are they?"
Bakilulu avoided Maru's overly enthusiastic eyes. The look that she always felt disgusted with before was so uncomfortable at this moment.
After the nuclear bomb incident, she always felt like something was broken in her heart.
"Mu became an instructor. As for those kids, they left too. Some of them became reporters. Do you remember, Saiyi?"
“He also worked as a civil servant.”
Ma Liu spoke like he knew everything.
"Well, that boy."
"Here we are doing research. The people from before are still here. Let's go have a drink after we talk to Uzumi-sama."
After saying this, Maru stood up with a smile and hugged Bakilulu tightly in his arms.
"Welcome back."
"."
The warmth from Maru was an unprecedented experience.
This also caused Bakilulu's original thoughts to waver.
There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with living here with them.
