In the anime industry, I stand at the forefront of popularity

Eight hours is neither long nor short.

However, at this time, news about Siegel's "treason" had already begun to spread.

"Chancellor Sarah!"

Aslan, almost soaked to the skin, rushed into Patrick Sala's duty room.

"That kind of fake news—"

"What are you doing, Aslan!"

Aslan had just said one sentence when Patrick yelled back at him.

"I'm talking about Mr. Siegel!" Aslan gritted his teeth.

"Siegel Klein planned to steal freedom, and the information about the target of the slit-throat operation was leaked! Even a child could understand such a simple formula!"

"How can it be!"

"How is that impossible?! Just received news that Freedom appeared on the battlefield!" Sarah slammed the table. "Now, Lux Klein's whereabouts are unknown. She must have escaped. She's also on the run from the crime!"

This statement undoubtedly refers to Lux and her father colluding in treason and even leaking the details of the battle to the Earth Alliance!

"Klein is a traitor!"

Patrick roared under the powerful authority.

"You are setting me up!"

Aslan roared too.

He witnessed the whole thing.

He knew that Siegel was not a murderer or a traitor.

That’s…the founding father of PLANT!

Indeed, the possibility that there are traitors or spies within PLANT exists, and it can even be said to be very likely.

Because even the top leaders of ZAFT may not know that the real target of Operation Cutthroat is actually Alaska, not Panama, but the Earth Federation actually knew it in advance.

"You were the one who concealed the decision from the Council. But it's impossible for Mr. Siegel, who isn't even a council member, to get hold of this information!"

"Those are the Klein faction's accomplices! The remnants!"

The roars of the two men even reached outside the duty room.

The originally busy outside suddenly became quiet at this moment.

"A formula that even a child can understand—or, at the very least, it's been forced upon me!"

It’s ridiculous.

And Aslan knew the truth.

Even if he didn't know, he believed that with Mr. Siegel's character, he would not sell out the lives of thousands of PLANT soldiers.

Aslan knew that his father was simply putting the blame for his failure on Klein and the others, thus silencing everyone who was about to hold him accountable.

This person is just greedy for the power of Speaker that he just got.

He controls ZAFT and PLANT.

What on earth is he going to do?!

"Get out! Aslan! Don't make me kick you out!"

"Yes, Chancellor Sarah."

Aslan saluted.

Then turn around and leave.

"Mr. Siegel... Lux..."

Coming to Lux's mansion again, it is now blocked.

Even Aslan cannot enter.

At this moment, Aslan felt as if his feet were touched.

"That rice cooker... No, I remember it was called Funeru?"

This Funeru is already in a dilapidated state.

Then, a picture was projected on it.

"...!!!"

This is the view of Siegel and the guards.

He seemed to have entered an alley.

"This is!"

It's negotiation.

Siegel is negotiating with Patrick!

His father hoped that Siegel could suppress the opposition of the Klein faction and would not affect his position as Speaker.

However, Siegel refused.

——Since you are using remote video, don’t worry about recording everything about Yui.

Including the subsequent scenes.

As Klein left, the bullet pierced through him bit by bit.

"……This is!"

This is the truth.

Yes.

Understood.

"The Sara faction's situation is very unstable right now, but using this method, we can label the Klein faction as traitors and then completely eradicate them...!"

This is simply the best way.

"hateful!"

Aslan clenched his fists.

The Sara faction was already in danger because it had destroyed many of ZAFT's manpower in one go, but through this conspiracy, he was able to consolidate his position again.

That’s what this matter is all about!

“To think that’s the case…!”

Then Aslan thought of an even more terrifying possibility.

"……civil war?"

Will civil war break out?

"If I give the evidence to the Klein faction..."

Patrick Sala will undoubtedly fall by then!

However, at this moment, the Funeru seemed to have lost power. It flickered a few times and then went dark.

"Out of power? Broken?!"

However, worse has already happened.

Although it was out of power, charging or repairing it was not a bad thing for Aslan.

"Ok?"

And at this moment, Funeru spit out a chip.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"I've got the evidence! I'm sorry, but I have no choice but to let you stay here. Hmm?!"

At this moment, Aslan suddenly saw a figure leaving from behind.

Aslan remained calm, picked up Funeral and walked on the other side.

And at this moment, a figure appeared in front.

The other party was wearing a headset, and it was obvious that they had communicated.

"Aslan Zala. Please hand over the rice cooker in your hand." The other person was wearing a black suit, exactly the same as the one in the previous picture.

"Well, then—!"

Ｗww.ＳＨub1２３.ＣoＭ

Aslan threw the rice cooker directly into the sky.

Then Aslan ran to the side. The other man's attention was attracted by Funeru, so Aslan ran a distance away.

However, there are even more black suits in front of this!

"Caught alive!"

The other party shouted.

"Get down!"

And at this moment, Aslan suddenly heard another voice.

He wasn't very familiar with the voice, but he knew it.

The voice of Bartfield's adjutant, Da Costa, who was also fired!

Chapter 456 Goodbye, Father, and My Cowardice

"Miss Lux!"

When Aslan was attacked, the scene turned to DSSD.

Lux was chatting and laughing with Instructor Malchio, who was about to return home. He was already preparing to leave, just waiting for his flight to be arranged.

However, at this moment, an entourage suddenly came to Lux in a hurry.

Then, Lux, who was smiling just now, suddenly lost all color on her face.

But the next moment, she immediately cheered up.

"Master Malchior, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Yes, I have no problem." Mentor Malchior nodded. "This is a completely neutral zone, DSSD. Neither the Earth Alliance nor the PLANT will rashly attack here."

It is official information that Lux accompanied Mentor Markio to visit DSSD, so Mentor Markio was also reminding Lux.

"Ah."

Lux didn't act pretentiously and immediately began to make arrangements.

Before this, Siegel had actually handed over the Klein faction to Lux.

But Siegel's Klein school is really a bit complicated.

Lux almost immediately rejected the idea of a head-on confrontation.

"—Well, at least on Aslan's side!"

The scene then switched back to Aslan.

After a storm of bullets, all the agents besieging Aslan fell.

"Mr. Aslan."

The other party threw a car key to Aslan.

"You, who exactly are..." Aslan widened his eyes.

"Hurry to the factory. Communications there are down right now, so we can use the time difference," Da Costa said. "Ms. Lacus said she hopes you can find your own justice."

“Lacus…!”

Aslan's eyes widened.

"Oh, right." Aslan took out the chip and wanted to give it to the other party.
