Chapter 1380 Klein's movements.
Lux Klein.
The appeal of this name was fully demonstrated at this moment.
Real-time data reported from ports on various PLANT colonies were placed on Gilbert Durandal's desk.
Behind these documents are faces full of worry.
"Speaker, shouldn't we stop it?"
Edwardo Lee was hinted at by everyone with their eyes, and finally stood up reluctantly.
"Stop? Why do you want to stop?"
Gilbert Durandal swept the documents aside and shook his head.
"There is no need for that. This is the wish of all the citizens of our PLANT. After the Bloody Valentine, PLANT was forced to make that painful decision despite all the difficulties. The bodies of more than 24 compatriots were allowed to drift in the cold universe along with the wreckage of Junius 7."
Gilbert Durandal was silent for a moment, as if in mourning, and then spoke again.
"Now, the descendants of that great man can seek help from the Solar Energy Construction Alliance at this peaceful moment, and then help the remains of their compatriots return home. This is something to be thankful for."
Gilbert Durandal took a deep breath, smiled slightly, and looked at the people standing in front of the desk.
"I remember that some of you have relatives on Junius 7, right?"
After hearing what Gilbert Durandal said, some people's expressions changed and their eyes became a little vague.
This is an undeniable fact.
In order to solve the crisis of materials banned by the Earth Union, PLANT transferred a number of technical backbones from various colonial satellites to Junius 7 to carry out agricultural construction, thus getting rid of the shackles that were unreasonably imposed on PLANT by the Earth Union.
Therefore, in such an environment, almost every PLANT citizen on every colony satellite had relatives or friends who were killed on Junius 7 on "Bloody Valentine's Day".
Gilbert Durandal leaned back in his chair and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"There is no need to intercept the citizens who are participating in the welcoming ceremony. In fact, I will decide to let the Minerva participate in this ceremony as the vanguard ship of the ZAFT and PLANT welcoming fleet."
As soon as Gilbert Durandal said this, everyone understood.
Lacus Clyne's sudden public declaration triggered a massive outing of PLANT citizens. Not only did PLANT not stop them, but even ZAFT sent a fleet to assist.
"Yes! Speaker, let's go down and arrange various matters now. In addition, this is a detailed report on the various events related to our PLANT and ZAFT that occurred in the previous Tianzhu City attack and the Victoria Airport incident."
"Put aside the report! Now, go and handle the welcoming ceremony for Lacus Clyne. Be sure to do it well and avoid any conflict with Lacus Clyne and the alliance behind her."
"Yes! Speaker!"
After everyone left, Gilbert Durandal leaned back in his chair, facing the quiet office alone in silence.
However, the investigation report on the possible major leaks of PLANT and ZAFT in the two previous major incidents was never opened by Gilbert Durandal. Just like Gilbert Durandal who was silently facing the silence at this moment, it was shrouded in silence.
Gilbert Durandal's statement undoubtedly made some cautious people in PLANT feel more at ease, and they gradually began to build momentum for the upcoming welcoming ceremony.
At the port of April City, Izaak Jule and Diego Elsman, who had returned for a break, saw overwhelming promotional images as soon as they stepped out of the port.
The two of them stopped immediately and looked around at the surrounding scenery. Then, Diego raised his hand and touched the back of his head and asked in confusion.
"I say, what time is it now, Yitzhak? Is it still 70 CE?"
"Nonsense!"
Yitzhak immediately retorted.
"Diego. I know what you're talking about? But, I'm afraid this is the truth."
"Facts? What facts? How come PLANT has changed so much since we came back from our silent patrol?"
Diego pointed to the fixed screens on the distant street and the screens of the airships in the sky. There was a very familiar figure on these screens - Lacus Klein.
"how could I know?"
Yitzhak frowned, but he was at a loss as to what to do.
After all, this scene hasn't appeared in PLANT for several years.
The most recent one was before the decisive battle.
Just as the two were wondering, a car drove over from a distance and stopped in front of them. "Isaac, Diego, welcome back! Get in the car first! We'll talk while we walk."
As the car window rolled down, Isaac's mother, Isalia Juor, appeared in front of the two.
"Mother, why are you here?"
"Senator Juul!"
Izak was puzzled, and Diego quickly greeted him.
Looking at the different reactions of the two young people, Isalia Juul smiled lightly and motioned for them to get in the car first.
Afterwards, after Isalia Juul drove the car out of the port area, she looked up through the rearview mirror at the two young men who were hesitant to speak.
"Why, you're already this big, but you're still so awkward? If you have any questions, just ask boldly."
Diego winked at Yitzhak frantically, asking him to speak.
And Isaac looked impatient, glared at Diego fiercely, and then asked.
"Mother, what's going on? Is the Speaker planning to bring Lux back?"
"Welcome back?"
The smile on Azalia Juul's lips grew wider.
“No. It’s not that Mr. Speaker Durandal welcomed Lacus Clyne back, but that he was unable to stop Lacus Clyne’s return.”
"Can't stop Lacus Clyne's return?"
The two were shocked, and suddenly felt a serious sense of alienation as if they were returning to the world after being isolated from it for a period of time.
"Yes. Because Lacus Clyne will bring the souls of our deceased 24 compatriots back home. No one can stop the souls of our compatriots from returning home."
"More than 24 compatriots? It's Junius No. 7?!"
Yitzhak immediately leaned forward, put his hands on the passenger seat, and looked at his mother with shining eyes.
"Smart, Isaac. Yes, it's Junius 7. A lot of things have happened recently, but the most important thing is that the Solar Construction Alliance has begun to take action. And the first step of the alliance is for Lacus Klein to personally take the lead and open up a way home for the compatriots of Junius 7."
Then, Azalia Juor spoke again.
"The Chancellor's Minerva has already been dispatched. The group of people who are still defending Sara have also taken action and sent their own fleets to Junius 7."
"Mother, turn around."
Yitzhak suddenly shouted.
Diego was startled and quickly grabbed Isaac.
"Isaac! Wait! Our warships still need supplies now!!"
"Shut up! No battle took place during this silent cruise! We still have some supplies left! If we just head to Junius 7, it's enough!"
Yzak said, glaring at Diego.
Diego felt a headache and quickly winked at Isalia Juul in front of him.
Unfortunately, both mother and son ignored Diego's hint.
"Isaac, you have to think it over. You are on leave now. You cannot lead the fleet to sail without the order of the National Defense Committee."
"Is there any need to think about that? Mother! Didn't you just say that? Those people who are still clinging to Sarah's ideals have already started to act. How can we stay where we are? Am I going to be laughed at by that bastard who has run off to who knows where?"
Listening to her son's indignant words, a hint of relief gradually appeared in Isalia Juul's eyes.
"Well! Isaac, Diego, your fleet will complete a batch of supplies in half an hour. I wish you a safe journey! Also, don't let us down."
"Yes! Mother!"
The mother and son completed a plan that was tantamount to treason, which made Diego feel overwhelmed and helpless.
"Oh my god! It looks like I'll have to walk on thin ice my whole life!"
