Chapter 1061: The Man and the Woman Die Together?

"Shoko? Why are you crying? Are you okay? What happened?" When Shi Gao Qingren received the call, he immediately panicked when he heard the person he liked crying so sadly.

"Qiuren... wuwuwu... Dad... Dad... wuwuwuwu..."

"Where are you? I'll find you..."

"You're not allowed to go." Before Shi Gao Qingren finished speaking, El Elf immediately interrupted Shi Gao Qingren and forbade him to find the pointing Shoko.

"Why!? Shoko needs..."

"Don't forget, you are a soldier." El Elf reminded Shi Gao Qingren in a cold voice.

"Even so, I have to..."

"Leaving the base without reason will be treated as a deserter."

"This..." Hearing the word "deserter", Shi Gao Qingren's mind became a little clearer. Deserters will be executed. He was afraid of death, and he was even more afraid that because of this incident, his friends and the people he liked would be killed. He didn't forget how Yang Hui threatened him at the beginning.

On one side was severe punishment and the life of his friend, and on the other side was the crying and pleading of the person he loved. The cry of Zhinan Shoko came into his ears from the PAD, weak and helpless, and he did not dare to answer her. For a moment, his heart was broken.

"Captain, can't you be flexible?" Inuzuka Hisayama persuaded. Because Shigao Haruto was using the hands-free function, he heard Zhinan Shoko's crying and asking for help.

He did not have a good relationship with Zhinan Shoko, but he and Shigao Haruto were good friends. Knowing that Shigao Haruto liked Zhinan Shoko, he would of course support his good friend at this time.

Moreover, they were all classmates. If a sunny girl like Zhinan Shoko cried like this, something terrible must have happened, and she must need comfort and help.

"..." Hearing this, Al Elfer did not answer, but took out the PAD, which made Shigao Haruto and Inuzuka Hisayama feel nervous. They thought Al Elfer was going to tell Yang Hui about it. Compared with Al Elfer, Yang Hui frightened them more.

However, Shigao Haruto's PAD soon received a message. He clicked it and saw a detailed leave application template. He looked up at Elfer in disbelief.

"Write the leave application and give it to me for approval." Elfer said coldly.

"Okay... okay! I'll write it right away!" Shigao Haruto was ecstatic and didn't dare to think about anything else. He hurried out to find a pen and paper, and at the same time comforted Nan Shoko and asked where she was.

Inuzuka Hisa, Ryukinosaki, and Ubota Nao who stayed behind smiled, and the worried and frightened Renbo Koji Akira breathed a sigh of relief. Yamada Raizo and Yang Benjin even hugged Elfer's shoulders intimately, and teased with a smile: "What? You are quite humane."

In their eyes before, Elfer was just an emotionless command machine that didn't care about anything except executing orders.

After the battle, Yomoto Jin and Ryukinosaki agreed that he was an excellent fighter, a qualified captain, and a recognized comrade-in-arms.

And now, everyone felt the warmth of a human from El Elfer.

"I am the captain, and you are my subordinates." El Elfer pushed away the hands of Yamada Raizo and Yomoto Jin without changing his expression.

...

On the other side, Shishao Haruto quickly wrote a leave note, handed it to El Elfer, and left the temporary station to go to the agreed place to find Zhinan Shoko.

When he found Zhinan Shoko on the rooftop of the school teaching building, Shishao Haruto felt distressed.

"Haruto! Wuwuwuwu..."

Seeing Shishao Haruto, Zhinan Shoko threw herself into his arms, holding her clothes tightly and crying. Although she buried her head in Shishao Haruto's chest, Shishao Haruto saw clearly when she ran over that Zhinan Shoko's eyes were swollen from crying, her face was completely bloodless, and her body leaned softly in his arms, without any strength.

"Shoko, what's wrong? What happened?" After being shy for a while, Shi Gao Qingren asked immediately.

"Dad... Dad... Wuuwuwu..."

"Uncle? What's wrong with uncle?"

"Dad is dying! Wuuwuwu..."

"Eh!? What happened!?" Shi Gao Qingren was also frightened by Zhinan Shoko. Why did Zhinan Shoko suddenly tell him that his father was dying?

Then, Zhinan Shoko told Shi Gao Qingren everything that happened, including that she went to ask Yang Hui for help, and Yang Hui gave her a rejection answer.

"This..." Shi Gao Qingren didn't know what to say for a while. He wanted to say "Yang Hui is too much!", but his fear of Yang Hui made him dare not say such words, and he didn't know how to comfort Zhinan Shoko for a while.

"Qi Ren, help me, please help me, Wuuwuwu..."

"...What do you want to do?" Shi Gao Qingren didn't know how to comfort Zhinan Shoko, so he could only find a way to help her. In this way, she should feel better, right?

"I... I don't know either..." Zhinan Shoko said with sobs and head down. She was just too sad and desperate, so she wanted to find someone to rely on to give her a sense of security, but when she was really asked how to help, she never thought about it.

"How about I go and ask him again? He is so powerful, there must be a way." Shi Gao Qingren couldn't think of any other way, so he could only help Zhinan Shoko to ask Yang Hui again.

"But... but..." Zhinan Shoko was entangled. Yang Hui had already made it very clear. The only way was to exchange more people and the entire New Gioal. This kind of thing... even if it was to save her father, she couldn't be cruel.

"Let's go, Shoko, let's go..."

"That... Haruto, can you take me to Earth, to the Dorsia Military Covenant Federation?" Zhinan Shoko suddenly remembered that Yang Hui said that he could give her formal diplomatic permission, but apart from the identity and formal statement, everything else needed to be solved by herself, so... she still had a glimmer of hope.

"Eh? Take you to Earth? What for?"

"It's just... I think... I can be the diplomatic representative of New Ghiol and have a good talk with the people of the Dorsia Military Covenant Federation. If we sit together, we will definitely be able to have a good talk, and maybe we can save my father..."

"This..." Although Shi Xiao Haruto was still a teenager, he was not as naive as Zhinan Shoko. He felt that the method Zhinan Shoko said was a fantasy and impossible to achieve.

Also, he was the only one among all the students who knew their true identities and the VVV plan. If he went to the Dorsia Military Covenant Federation, could he come back?

And... how were they going to go?

"You... don't you have a robot? It... it can take us to Earth..."

"Hehe, little girl, it's okay if you want to die, but it's wrong for you to take advantage of boys' love to die together."

"Who!?"

Hearing the voice of the third person, Shi Gao Qingren turned around in panic to protect Zhinan Shoko, only to see a man with green hair leaning against the wall, folding his arms, looking at them with a sneer on his face.

"Sir! Why... why are you here?" Zhinan Shoko asked in panic.

Shi Gao Qingren had seen him before and knew that he was Yang Hui's personal secretary. Zhinan Shoko also told him that he was an apprentice assistant under him.

"You are my little assistant. Seeing that you are so wronged, I planned to comfort you. As a result... it seems that I really came to the right place." He sneered.

"Sir! You..."

"Do you know what your behavior is?" Zhinan Shoko asked with a smile on his face.

"What is it?"

"Treason, and inciting others to commit treason."

"No! I didn't!"

"But that's the truth..." As she spoke, she walked towards Zhinan Shoko, stepping on an elegant pace. The crisp sound of her high heels hitting the ground also struck the hearts of Zhinan Shoko and Shi Gao Qingren, "...boy, make way, it's time to discipline now."

"Don't...don't get close to Shoko!" Shi Gao Qingren didn't know where the courage came from. He always felt that he had bad intentions, so he didn't obey and continued to protect Zhinan Shoko.

"Alas, children nowadays are really disobedient. I said...get out of the way." Suddenly, her voice became low and stern, and even a hint of solemnity that could not be disobeyed. The scarlet bird on her forehead flew out and imprinted in Shi Gao Qingren's eyes.

Shi Gao Qingren's eyes were wrapped in a red glimmer, and her excited and nervous body became relaxed. Her expression was dull, and she obediently stepped aside.

"Haruto! What's wrong with you? What did you do to Haruto?" Zhinan Shoko also saw the scarlet bird on her forehead. She didn't know what happened, but she knew that Shigao Haruto was controlled by some unknown means.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, they are really in love. They are not afraid of death." She smacked her lips and teased jokingly.

"I... Haruto and I are not... not..."

"Hehe, you are still a child who is not frank." As she said, she had walked in front of Zhinan Shoko. Zhinan Shoko was frightened and stepped back step by step. She didn't stop until she retreated to the wire mesh on the rooftop. She was slightly lifted up by her chin, "Well... pretty, sunny, cute, lively, pure, no wonder she is so likable."

"... Adult..." The face was close at hand, exuding an intoxicating fragrance, and the warm breath blew on her face, making Zhinan Shoko hotter and hotter, and her mind gradually blurred.

But the next second, she was cold all over, and her soul was about to freeze.

"What a pity, such a cute one is going to die."

"Sir!?"

"I'm not trying to scare you, little girl. You've persuaded him to take you to Earth, and that's treason~"

"How...how could that be? I didn't...I didn't..."

"Hehe, he and his machine are one of our country's top secrets. Or rather, the Dorsia Military Covenant Federation and ARUS are so interested in our country because of him and his machine. Of course...there are other Valvrave and pilots too. Once he or they take you to the Dorsia Military Covenant Federation, what awaits them...is only the operating table in the laboratory and endless human experiments."

"This! I...I really don't know! Sir, I really..."

"Of course I know you don't know." He gently stroked the white cheek of the guide Shoko with his fingers, "This is where you should really reflect, Shoko, the intern assistant of the president's personal secretary, doesn't even know the basic situation of our country. I even deliberately left some documents on the table for you to pick up several times. How can you be so obedient?"
