Sulei, who also noticed that her tone was too intimate outside, blushed and shot a glare at He Kui before pulling him away from the hangar.
"Sulei, what's wrong?"
"What do you mean what's wrong! PLANT sent food supplies today!"
"Since you're out, hurry back and cook for me!"
Sulei said this while her petite tongue licked her lips, looking quite expectant.
Because He Kui had allowed their people to settle on the asteroid, the recent Defense Committee had been treating him well, providing him with free fish, meat, and vegetables, all of which were very fresh.
Of course, it was only enough for an ordinary family of five; the rest still had to be bought.
"Alright, but before that~"
He Kui kissed Sulei on the lips in the corridor.
"Is that enough?"
After being pulled into a kiss, Sulei shot He Kui a blushing glare.
"Um, not yet."
He Kui said as he leaned in again, this time using his hands.
This was the core residential area; although they were just in the corridor, it was absolutely safe.
In this open area of the corridor, it felt even more thrilling than before, and Sulei's delicate body gradually leaned weakly against He Kui.
After a longer time than last, He Kui finally released the breathless Sulei.
"Here, this is for you."
"Another gift? We're going to have to donate again."
Looking at the Haro that He Kui placed in her hands, Sulei rolled her eyes cutely.
"Let's just donate it."
He could still boost his reputation.
"But this Haro is Radar Integration; it can connect to nearby small machines as a terminal, so it's best not to sell it."
Although it wasn't yet at S-class precision, it was quite suitable for Sulei's expertise.
"Got it!"
Sulei said with annoyance and kissed He Kui again.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
In the brief moment Sulei was catching her breath, He Kui chuckled.
"This lady has changed her mind; I want to eat you first!"
"At ten o'clock local time today, a joint statement was issued by Orb and other neutral countries led by Orb."
"The statement clearly refuted the erroneous notion of 'either us or the enemy' proposed by the Atlantic Federation."
"As a country that has long advocated for peace, PLANT expresses its high appreciation and support for this. We believe that the firm support of neutral countries helps to balance international power, ease tensions, and bring more peace and stability to the world."
"We also look forward to the neutral countries playing an active role in international affairs, promoting dialogue and negotiation to resolve disputes, and jointly building a more peaceful and prosperous world. At the same time, we hope that more countries can join the ranks of peaceful neutrality."
Listening to the report on the television, He Kui couldn't help but click his tongue.
Orb was really not holding back, even involving other neutral countries, and they had even brought Lacus's hometown into it.
With this development, He Kui recalled what he had discussed with Lacus about trading the Neutron Jammer.
Given the current inclination, there was a high probability that the Neutron Jammer would be prioritized for trade to the neutral countries led by Orb.
And with the Clyne Faction backing Orb, it was not without the possibility of resisting the currently weak Atlantic Federation and half of the Eurasian Federation.
Next would be the battle in Orb.
By issuing this statement, they would surely provoke the Earth Alliance.
Although the Atlantic Federation in the PLANT reports seemed to be in dire straits.
In reality, they had their own propaganda machine, and that machine was much stronger than ZAFT's propaganda efforts on Earth.
So after this statement, they would definitely launch a war of public opinion, and after gaining international support, their first action might be to attack Orb.
Of course, this was just He Kui's speculation.
However, protecting Orb was beneficial for the world and for PLANT.
And upon hearing this news, Shihe and Sulei surprisingly found common ground.
After all, the neutral countries had reached a consensus to confront the Atlantic Federation.
This was something that the vast majority of people in PLANT were pleased to see.
After suppressing his thoughts, He Kui happily slept with the two of them, and the next day he woke up in South America.
The sunset in Panama still looked enchanting, but he couldn't see the Panama coast from where he was, so there wasn't much scenery.
"Hergules, long time no see."
In the underground base being remodeled in the estate, He Kui said to the young man who had been brought to his home by Ailina.
His voice echoed in the spacious underground base.
"Yes."
Although it had only been a short time since they last met, the wrinkles at the corners of Hergules's eyes had visibly increased.
As a Coordinator clone, he could not escape the fate of clones being short-lived.
"How's the situation with their team?"
He Kui was asking about Jin En, his subordinate.
"The team leader has gained Red Uniform strength, and the others have also improved somewhat."
"But I heard they are going back to PLANT."
"I see."
He certainly knew they were going back to PLANT; after all, he was the one who called them back.
The defense contract here had ended, and He Kui did not renew it.
The lunar mining team still needed a guard, and having a Red Uniform team meant he didn't have to worry.
After all, they were all from his own company; he just needed to pay their salaries.
Moreover, Jin En's Air Cushion Device could also be used on the moon.
"Thank you for your hard work."
He Kui, who received no response, didn't mind and just looked at Luo, who was also at his home.
At this moment, Luo was looking at Sosis with obvious curiosity.
His intuition told him that this person was not just a simple bodyguard; that kind of indifferent demeanor was indeed chilling.
"Luo, how's the backpack project going?"
He Kui did not explain Hergules's background and continued to ask.
"I've roughly designed the Land Battle Backpack for rainforest use."
Luo directly placed a design drawing of a backpack on the tablet.
"I removed the Beam Weapon and kept only the Solid Armament, and I also didn't include any large-scale destructive weapons."
Luo explained, and the tablet in front of He Kui was changing.
He saw that the backpack had two katanas and was also equipped with a Solid Rifle.
"This armament..."
"What's wrong~?"
Luo blinked curiously.
"I don't think the people here are capable of using dual swords, right?"
Equipping two swords is less effective than equipping an extra rifle.
Not everyone has Xiao Ba's assistance.
Luo had designed this backpack purely out of his love for swords.
But it did look good.
"That seems to be the case."
Luo scratched his head.
"And there are too many thrusters on the back, making mass production costs too high. Since it's for rainforest combat, let's just reduce the upward thruster's power by half."
"I understand."
Luo was not someone who was unwilling to listen to opinio
ns, and he indeed didn't have much experience in making mass-produced models. Hearing He Kui's words made his eyes light up.
Thank you for the recommendation~
