The two hands of Xiao Ran and Char touched each other, with friendly smiles on their faces that they had not seen for a long time. They shook hands gently and then let go. On the surface, the two of them seemed to be quite familiar and friendly. But in fact, whether it was Xiao Ran or Char, their trust in each other was basically zero. Not only that, they also maintained considerable vigilance against each other.
Xiao Ran's vigilance is based on Char's desire for revenge. After all, this man is also a man who has fooled the world like Cruze, but compared to Cruze In terms of his obvious mental weakness, Char's soul is stronger and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. Even the Artesia he cares about most cannot be an obstacle to his heartbeat after he makes up his mind.
Unlike Cruze, Cruze doesn't care about his own life because he is about to die, so he has to risk his life to achieve his goal. But Char's experience was completely different. He didn't worry about his life, but he risked his own life for revenge. He dared to challenge a ship alone with a human rocket launcher, and he dared to drive a mobile suit and bring an asteroid to the earth. It can be said that he was a dreamer who risked his own life for his dream, but he was also a lunatic who didn't care about his life even more than Cruze. Life is just a prop that can be used in practice.
Cruze went crazy because of death, while Char died because of madness. It's obvious who is crazier.
Xiao Ran is on guard because he is worried that Char's current obsession with revenge will have an impact on the cooperation between the two. If Char also uses himself as a tool in the revenge process without a clear understanding of the current situation, If they are not sincere partners, problems will inevitably arise in the cooperation between the two and ultimately affect the overall plan. Therefore, before Xiao Ran trusts Char, it is absolutely necessary for Char to clearly understand his strength and current situation.
And Char's wariness towards Xiao Ran is caused by the mystery of Xiao Ran. The fictional Resistance Organization in Xiao Ran's mouth has no influence on Char. It was simply inexplicable, and the other party actually directly pointed out his true identity and even his sister was in the other party's hands. This made Char feel a threat, the kind of threat that Xiao Ran had no secret at all.
Although Xiao Ran said very nicely, fighting for world peace and resisting Earth Federation Army and Zeon, Char still has deep doubts about the existence of Resistance Organization and the purpose mentioned by Xiao Ran. Whether Resistance Organization really exists, Xiao Ran's purpose was really for world peace. Even when communicating with Xiao Ran at that time, Char's feeling of trust that came from the bottom of his heart due to his NT ability could not convince Char to have more trust in Xiao Ran.
Because Char does not believe that in such a world, there will still be people fighting for a great dream like world peace. Who would risk their lives to offend the two major forces in the world if their own interests are not their own? To Char, Xiao Ran looks like a madman who was stunned by a beautiful dream. How credible is the madman? If you really want to completely believe what Xiao Ran said, Char will feel that you are a lunatic.
The two of them just held their own ideas and smiled at each other at the Spaceport passenger exit. Under Xiao Ran's invitation, Char followed Xiao Ran calmly and got into the car.
The car started. Xiao Ran and Char did not talk about issues in the car that might make Zeon and Federation nervous if they revealed even a little bit. Instead, they turned the topic to a woman.
"Is she okay?" Char was silent for a while after getting in the car. After looking at the same world Brown City, he finally turned his head and looked at Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran naturally knew who Char was asking, and nodded with a smile, "Not bad. Everyone Tiandu is having a good time. He is working hard for his dream of becoming a doctor. He has new friends and there is no shortage of people to talk to. He just misses his brother whom he has not seen for a long time, but I am looking forward to meeting you."
"Really." Char smiled faintly, with a touch of tenderness on his face. "She is actually working hard to become a doctor. This is really not like her character."
Xiao Ran glanced at Char and said, "People will change, especially after experiencing the changes in the world, there are still many people who are willing to work hard to change themselves in order to change the world and help more people."
"Ha." Char smiled lightly and said, "But there are more people who are willing to stay as they are now, waiting to die and waiting for help from others. Helping these people will only make them more depraved. Living in this world without thoughts is like puppets and accepting the mercy of others. If this is the case, why should such people help them?"
"Maybe, but I think maybe these people who have fallen like puppets in your mouth will burn themselves at the critical moment to bring light and warmth to their world." Xiao Ran said and glanced at Char, and continued, "Of course, this must first let them see the power to fight to the limit."
Char smiled noncommittally. These things were not in his consideration at the moment. The only thing he wanted to do was to kill everyone in Zabi family for revenge, and then protect his father's dream.
The car kept moving forward until it entered Anaheim's factory. Char's face changed slightly, and he looked at Xiao Ran with a somewhat surprised look. He did not expect Xiao Ran will bring him here, to the territory of Death Merchant Anaheim Company, who has already made a name for himself in the world, leaving Earth Federation helpless and Zeon having to maintain a relationship.
And the car that we are sitting on can move forward without any hindrance in a military factory, but no one stops it, which is enough to prove Xiao Ran's status in Anaheim Company. This can explain one thing, the Resistance Organization 0 that Xiao Ran talks about. seems to be really not a nonsense, and there is actually a force like Anaheim Company behind it to support it. This makes Char's inexplicable trust in Xiao Ran, which was originally suppressed by reason, seem to be beginning to move again.
Xiao Ran is a changer. Putting aside the acquired combat abilities, he is a human being who evolved for communication. Char is a human being who has NT potential and is heading towards the NT path. He also exists for communication and has a high similarity. Just like Xiao Ran can feel Char when he is in the transformer state, although Char cannot feel the existence of Xiao Ran due to his limited ability, in a face-to-face situation Regarding what Xiao Ran said, he can vaguely distinguish whether what Xiao Ran said is true or false. This is the source of why Char feels that what Xiao Ran said is credible.
Although the rational Char does not deny whether what Xiao Ran said is true or false, he is also wary that Xiao Ran will hide something from him. After all, not telling him does not mean cheating, and naturally he cannot distinguish Xiao Ran's true purpose.
When the car stopped in front of a huge factory, Xiao Ran got out of the car and walked into it with Char. This factory can also be said to be a building, with all kinds of people working in it, all doing research and development for Anaheim's MS, but so far nothing has been gained.
Underground in this building, another larger factory is busy every Tiandu every day with only a few people knowing about it. Xiao Ran and Char entered this underground factory through the elevator.
You can imagine Char's expression after stepping out of the elevator and standing in the corridor when he saw the huge mobile suit fixed on the bracket through the corridor window. He was stunned, surprised, and confused. As Zeon's M S-Class Pilot, and also a Ace Pilot, even if you don't understand technical things, you can still see that the mobile suit in front of you that has not yet been completely completed is completely different from Zaku II.
Char looked at Xiao Ran in surprise. "This is?"
"We, Resistance Organization, developed the MS ourselves." Xiao Ran also looked up at the M1 Astray, code-named AE-0, and said, "This one is just to expand production. The test machine produced by adjusting the equipment before is not up to the level of Prototype Machine. In about a few days, we can expand production and start manufacturing the machine body dedicated to Ace-level pilots."
Char heard the meaning of Xiao Ran's words, and was even more surprised. "What he meant by this is that they already have the technology to produce MS, and they can also produce special-purpose mobile suits according to different pilots? With this kind of confidence, it seems that this kind of mobile suit has been tested in actual combat, but I don't know how it will perform in terms of performance."
Xiao Ran didn't see the expression on Char's face, but he seemed to have guessed what Char was thinking. He answered Char's questions before Char could ask. Confused, he said, "The performance of the machine completely surpasses that of the Zeon Army's Zaku II. Its output, flexibility, speed, and maneuverability comprehensively crush the current Zaku II. Even Federation's Jim, who is currently secretly mass-producing it, is the same."
"Jim?" Char frowned, and there was another question in his mind.
And Xiao Ran continued, "After some special and not too troublesome adjustments, this body in your eyes has the ability to compete head-on with the Gundam I drove before. But after all, it is a mass-produced body designed, and many aspects are still much simpler than Customized Mecha."
"If it is just a special machine, it will completely crush the Gundam made by the Earth Federation Army in all aspects." Xiao Ran said here, turning to look at Char: "And in addition to this series of machines, we also have other systems. The airframes of the series are still on the drawings and have not been manufactured, but through all aspects of testing, it appears that once mass production is started, they can be put into battle without any adjustments. Therefore, we have gained an advantage in terms of high-end power. What we lack is just comrades with the same dream."
Char smiled slightly, "It seems that your organization is really short of people."
"I don't deny this." Xiao Ran spread his hands and once again made a gesture of invitation to Char. While leading Char from the front, he said, "Actually, it is not that there is a shortage of people, but that there is a great shortage of people, because of some special relationships. The reason is that the main force of our organization is entangled with other things and is temporarily unable to come back to join the action against Earth Federation, because we have never faced only the current Earth Federation, but we must face the current Earth Federation."
"That's why I started to seek cooperation in all aspects, and you are one of the people I selected. In the current conflicts within Zeon against Zabi family, there are also some people who resist Zabi family. There are also those people who have been waiting for Daiken family to stand up again. Because you stand up, you will be your help. In other words, you will be our help."
"On the other hand, there are also people with lofty ideals within the Earth Federation Army. These people are also the ones we attract. They will eventually drive our machine and become the heroes who change the world and bring peace to the world." Xiao Ran opened an office door in front of him, then turned and looked at Char behind him. "Moreover, they will also become the pioneers of the new era, please come in."
Char nodded, followed Xiao Ran into this extremely simple office, and then sat face to face with Xiao Ran on both sides of the desk, and then said, "Since you think that I can subvert the current Zeon, and can also get help from Earth Federation through my identity, allowing me to complete my purpose of revenge, then why should I agree to cooperate with you and join you?"
"Because you can't bring real peace, even if Earth Federation will help you deal with Zabi family, you will always be just a pawn in their hands, not an object to cooperate with." Xiao Ran looked at Char, smiled slightly, "I think you should also know this very well, but I am different. I will become the true leader of Earth Federation. Only I will face up to the current relationship between the earth and the colonies, and can bring real peace."
"With your current strength?" Char leaned on the chair and said calmly, "With Anaheim Company's current strength, I'm afraid it won't be able to support you to that level."
"No, you may be too underestimating what Anaheim Company has mastered, and you are too ignorant of what our organization itself has mastered." Xiao Ran unhurriedly opened the computer on the desktop, then plugged a storage device into the computer interface, and after opening the contents, turned the computer screen to face Char.
"On the surface, the current Anaheim Company cannot support us much, but Anaheim Company holds the reality of Earth Federation. And in my hands, I hold something that is enough to change the world. Once it is announced, I am afraid that the people who support us will not only be limited to Anaheim Company, but will be more people."
