Yitzhak and Diego are gone.

Just like the Kamoka, they also received a direct order from ZAFT headquarters, requiring them to go to the Yakin Duwe defense line as soon as possible and report to Rau Lu Cruze who arrived there first.

.

Yitzhak's words before leaving left Aslan unable to calm down for a long time.

However, in the morning, Aslan, who thought he was well disguised, watched Lax slowly fall asleep under the influence of medicine after lunch, and then he gradually became a little disturbed.

In the past few days, Aslan did indeed reveal no information about Siegel Klein as Yitzhak had guessed, and even worked with other people in the hospital to weave a lie in an attempt to get Lux to

·Klein mistakenly believed that Siegel Klein was too busy and could not get away for a while, so he did not come to visit his beloved daughter.

But Yitzhak's ruthless revelation made Aslan panic, and he also wondered whether he really didn't understand Lacus Klein, his fiancée.

After temporarily concealing the news that Uncle Siegel was assassinated for the sake of Lacus, did Lacus Klein, who was lying in the hospital bed, already know the news?

Lying weakly on the hospital bed, Lux was weaving lies in reverse just as Aslan was weaving lies, making Aslan mistakenly believe that she did not know that her father had been assassinated.

Thinking of this, Aslan couldn't help but grit his teeth.

really.

He admitted.

He really doesn't understand his fiancée.

"Yitzhak, you are right."

Aslan sighed secretly in his heart, stood up subconsciously, walked to the window, and opened the curtains slightly, making the light in the room slightly dim.

However, when he returned to the bed, he found that Lux Klein, who should have fallen asleep, had opened her eyes.

"Lux. What's wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?"

Aslan was startled and spoke quickly, then covered Lux's right hand with both hands and held it gently.

In the past few days, Aslan seemed to have become accustomed to this, and Lacus did not resist such a move.

Lux moved her eyes to look at Aslan, her lips moved but she didn't speak.

But Aslan saw a glimmer of light slipping from the corner of Lux's eyes again.

At this moment, five thunders struck, a bolt from the blue.

Aslan discovered that what Yitzhak said was true.

Lux,

Lux Klein knew of Siegel Klein's death from the beginning.

"Lux..."

Aslan gritted his teeth, but could not say any words.

Because he knew that any words of comfort were false.

Aslan, who had also experienced the murder of his relatives, knew that at this moment, no words could heal that tragic memory.

Aslan clasped his hands and finally leaned over, holding Lux in his arms.

"Lux, Lux, I'm right here! I'm right here!! So...so..."

Hot tears wet Aslan's clothes.

The silent crying continued as the light dimmed.

It wasn't until a certain reminder bell rang that Aslan was surprised to realize that most of his clothes were wet with tears, and Lacus in his arms had also fallen asleep at some point.

Aslan's heart softened, and he gently put Lux down and covered her with a quilt.

However, when Aslan was about to get up and change his clothes that were wet with tears, he found a group of people already standing outside the door.

The leader, whom Aslan knew, was Johnson, one of his father's right-hand men.

"Aslan, the Speaker asked me to inform Miss Lux that the time has come."

"Time? No. Lux is asleep now."

Aslan was a little confused, but still refused.

But Lux's voice came from inside.

"I'm awake! Help me change my clothes!"

"Lux, you!"

Aslan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and returned to the room, only to find that Lux, who should have been asleep, had already sat up.

Looking at the stunned Aslan, a bitter smile appeared on Lux's face.

"Sorry! Aslan, next, I have things that need to be done."

"Lux, your body, your injuries..."

Lux shook her head.

"It doesn't matter anymore!"

Then, Lux looked out the door again.

"Someone come and help me change my clothes!"

As several maids walked out of the crowd, a middle-aged woman also walked up to Aslan.

"Master Aslan, please wait outside for a moment."

Aslan, who didn't react for a moment, walked out of the ward and stared at Johnson.

But the latter showed a helpless look.

"Sorry! Aslan. This is an agreement between the Speaker and Miss Lux. I didn't know about it beforehand."

"What exactly is going on?"

"I don't know the details, but a few hours later there will be a commemoration event to commemorate Junius 7 and the state funeral ceremony for former Speaker Sigur Kalain."

"Really? It turns out that it's already this time."

Aslan understood.

CE71.

February 14th.

This is the first anniversary of Bloody Valentine's Day.

At the same time, it is also on the occasion of this memorial day that after the assassination of Siegel Klein, the president of the PLANT Supreme Council, a state funeral was publicly announced by the Supreme Council.

One year ago, Junius 7 was the day when more than 200,000 of our compatriots died.

One year later, on the occasion of this death day, Speaker Sigurd Klein, who was respected and admired by the citizens of PLANT and who worked for the peace of PLANT, was assassinated.

The occurrence of these things caused the atmosphere in PLANT to suddenly deteriorate.

Since the beginning of the war, with the huge advantage brought by MS, the joy of gaining battlefield advantage has disappeared at this moment.

What's left is sadness, anger, and confusion.

It was clear that the United Earth had gained an advantage on the battlefield, but why was the chairman of the PLANT Supreme Council assassinated in April City, the capital of PLANT?

Our ZAFT is so powerful, but it can't resist the enemy's assassination?

The citizens of PLANT were very puzzled.

ZAFT's soldiers were also confused.

At such a moment, both citizens and ZAFT soldiers need an explanation, or a support, a belief that allows them to continue fighting, believing that PLANT and ZAFT will definitely be able to defeat the United Earth.

In this situation where everyone was watching, the members of the Supreme Council, all dressed in black, led by Patrick Sala, who was also dressed in black, slowly walked from the stage to the stage.

Patrick Sala, with a serious face and sharp eyes, strode to the podium and looked around, at his compatriots, at the ZAFT soldiers present, and at the camera pointed at him.

He knew that from now on, PLANT, and even ZAFT, had no possibility of jointly negotiating peace with the Earth.

"Everyone..."

"Speaker Sara! Please wait a moment."

At this moment, a weak but strangely familiar voice came from the audience.

The next moment, when the entire audience clearly saw the source of the sound, there was a sudden commotion.

"That, that's Miss Lux Klein!!"

"That's Miss Lux!"

"She, what is happening to her?"

"Isn't Miss Lux in the hospital?"

No matter who it is, as long as they see a figure dressed in black, with beautiful pink hair covered by black gauze, and sitting in a wheelchair, they will all exclaim in distress.

Especially when they saw Lacus facing the steps, she could only be picked up by Aslan, who was wearing ZAFT's red uniform, and walked slowly onto the stage. Almost everyone present had their eyes lit up.
