Chapter 215: Laughing
Chapter 215: Laughing
C.C. was lying naked on the operating table. The effects of the drug had not yet passed, let alone move or even resist, she was completely unconscious from the neck down and could only let Momoka do whatever she wanted with her body.
"Alice has arrived in Torrington." Momoka said to Lacus without looking back while carefully cutting open C.C.'s belly, "She is now very accustomed to human society. Although I'm still a little worried, I think she should be able to do it alone, it's just a matter of time to get the Box of Laplace."
"I trust your judgment." Lacus watched expressionlessly as Momoka reached into C.C.'s stomach and pulled something out, "I'm sorry to call you back so suddenly, but I really have no one else to trust."
"It's okay, it's my duty, as long as the master can come back." Momoka said and took out a small signal generator from C.C.'s abdominal cavity and put it aside, then straightened up and clapped her hands briskly, "Check is done, this is the last one, so I'll go turn off the Minovsky particle generator in the operating room?"
"Well, please." Lacus gave a slight nod of greeting to Momoka who left the operating room with the electronic device, and turned her head to look at C.C., "Do you think you're particularly clever? Hiding the signal generating device in your stomach, and then you can let His Highness Loran and the others catch me?"
"I didn't expect you to be so well-equipped here, nor did I expect you to be so astute." C.C. coldly locked eyes with her, "I'm so stupid, really."
"Because if I were you, I would do it." Lacus scratched C.C.'s nose affectionately, who turned her head away with a displeased look, "Do you know? I became an INNOVATOR here."
"That's a real congratulations, after all, Innovator is super awesome." C.C. twitched the corners of her mouth with a leathery smile, "Lacus, let me ask you, is Trans-AM any good?"
"Look at you, you're doing it again." Lacus shook her head helplessly, "Always sealing yourself up with a thick shell, making a strong and incomparable appearance in front of people, and only using twisted means to express your emotions."
C.C. gave a sneer at Lacus.
"For example, you're actually envious of Ange for Ade brushing her hair every day, right?& If you want it, just say it out yourself, just like Ange. But you didn't, but you just sneered at them and make Ade and Ange feel embarrassed. Why necessary?" Lacus blinked, "Ade is very low on emotion, if you said no, he would really think that you don't need it."
"What exactly are you trying to say?" C.C. interrupted her impatiently, "To alleviate your guilt by counting me out?"
"I just want you to know that if something goes wrong, Ade will figure it out, I'll figure it out if he's not there, and Ange will figure it out if I'm wrong, so you don't really have to strain yourself so much, just leave it to us. If you get a chance to go home, you can reconsider your role positioning." Lacus looked complicated and laughed softly, "I probably don't have another chance, I hope you still have a chance "
C.C. sniffed into silence, and her eyes became slightly softer.
"By the way, there is one last thing." Lacus turned around and disappeared into the dead center of C.C.'s vision, returning shortly with a tube of orange liquid, "Look what this is."
" you're crazy." C.C. found her voice shaking.
"Don't be ridiculous, it's not Ade that's in here, it's Lillith." Lacus raised the container in her hand and shook it symbolically, "Ade is kept in a safe place and will never have to be put into MS again, you don't have to worry."
"Heh, I thought you were going to use Ade to fight angel," C.C.'s gaze was icy, "You finally can't stand the condemnation of conscience?"
"My conscience? It was indeed planned that way, but since Nunnally offered to help me kill the last angel, I decided to give her a chance." Lacus padded her arm behind C.C.'s head, "Stop it, drink up."
Before C.C. had time to protest, Lacus forced Lillith's LCL down her throat without a word.
The sticky liquid slid down the throat into the esophagus, then continued to move down to the stomach. Just when C.C. thought the LCL would be decomposed by the stomach acid, she was shocked to feel the liquid ooze out of the stomach wall and travel towards the pelvic cavity as if it had self-awareness, finally converging in the organ that had no meaning to her.
"It's amazing, isn't it?" Lacus tenderly stroked C.C.'s bare belly, "For the souls living in LCL, they are like beings that haven't formed a fertilized egg yet, right? So they instinctively crave to gain a form, even Lilith."
"What are you up to here?" C.C. was abruptly alerted, "Something to do with your so-called Human Instrumentality Project?"
"Who knows?" Lacus gave a mysterious faint smile, "In order to prevent you from escaping or messing up, I'll have Momoka put you in a restraint suit later, so you can rest for a while now."
After saying that, Lacus ignored her, picked up the clean sheet and covered C.C. with it, then turned around and left in style. Outside the operating room, she closed the door and saw Momoka walking toward her with a white gown in her hands.
"Lacus, are you done with her already?" Momoka jogged all the way to her, "Those things have been disposed of, and the Minovsky particle generator has been turned off."
"I'm really sorry to keep making you do such trivial things." Lacus showed a look full of apology, "And after that, I have to let you die."
"It's okay, it's the maid's duty, as long as the master can return." Momoka smiled and cocked her head, the ahoge hair on her head swayed along with the movement of her head, "Lacus, we'll make it, right?"
"It will be." Lacus took Momoka's hand and looked earnestly into her eyes, "Your sacrifice will not be in vain, I promise you."
"You're doing very well." Kaworu Nagisa put his hand over Shinji's, "You've mastered this piece by Liszt very well, why don't we try Beethoven together next time? I have a friend who is a great believer in Beethoven, and if I ever see him again, I would love to have him hear us play together."
"Your friend?" Shinji blushed slightly, "Performing for someone my level is so bad that it will definitely embarrass you, right? What do I have to do to play as well as you do?"
"There is no need to deliberately play better," Kaworu Nagisa smiled and shook his head, "It is enough to press the keys and make the instrument sound beautiful as you wish."
"Then, then I want to make the sound I play even better!" Shinji looked away in embarrassment and peeked back again, "Kaworu-kun, do you have an idea?"
"Then you'll just have to practice, keep connecting and become more proficient." Kaworu Nagisa lifted his hand and cupped Shinji's chin to wrench his face back, "I'll keep practicing with you until you can play notes that will amaze even him, as long as I live."
"You're saying these strange things again, live and die " Shinji puffed out his cheeks in slight displeasure as he peeled away Kaworu Nagisa's hand, "Or are all NewTypes like you? You know, I only know you as an NT, except "
"Your mother?"
"Hmm." Shinji lowered his head and responded in an inaudible voice, "My father said she was also an NT, but died shortly after I was born. If she's still alive, I wonder "
"If she were still alive, she would have been an emotional person too, wouldn't she?" Kaworu Nagisa looked at the black and white keys and was slightly lost in thought, "Very intelligent, very gentle, very decisive, and must have loved you very much. Because of her strong NT ability and extraordinary personality, she was easy to be attracted by other NTs, and has her own unique view on life and death. She was quite an interesting person."
Shinji's mouth opened wide in shock, "Kaworu-kun, you talk as if you've met her "
"That's too much, how is that possible?" Kaworu Nagisa smiled and patted Shinji's back, "It's late, hurry back, Miss Asuka should still be waiting for you at school, right?"
"Oops, I totally forgot about that! Asuka!" Shinji popped up from his chair and ran, "I'll be off, see you later, Kaworu-kun!"
"Ah, goodbye." Kaworu Nagisa's slender fingers brushed the black collar around his neck, "Someone's waiting for me, and I have to get going."
By the time he finished packing up the piano and music, cleaning the music room, and finally arriving at the deserted beach, the sun was about to set. The water and the sky were dyed golden together by the afterglow of the sunset, and it was impossible to see the dividing line.
The person waiting for him saw him coming and took off her sunglasses and put it in her jacket pocket, revealing her blue-gray eyes underneath.
"I thought it was Ade who contacted me?" said Kaworu Nagisa, looking around with his hands in his trouser pockets, "If you're not lying to me, then he's shielding himself with Geass on at the moment and quietly hiding behind some boulder to listen in on our conversation? I didn't know he had that kind of interest."
"He's already here, right in front of you." Lacus fondled the metal container in her arms, "He's in here."
Kaworu Nagisa was gape-mouthed and didn't know how to react for a moment.
"If you ask Ikari Yui, she'll probably tell you, I wouldn't joke about such things." Lacus's eyes glistened with tears, "Ikari Yui and Dr. Aeolia both said it was hopeless, now only you are left, do you you have a way to change him back?"
"I can't believe it's turned out like this" Kaworu Nagisa looked up at the sky, "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it, and no life form on Earth has the ability to change him back. More simply put, in this story, he retired early."
Lacus's pupils contracted violently, her eyes gradually reddened, and her breathing became rapid. She panicked and took out her sunglasses and put them back on herself, but her voice had become a little choked up at the moment, "So it is I see then sorry goodbye "
"Just a moment." Kaworu Nagisa rubbed his nose, "I know it's a bit cruel to ask you to recall the painful experience again, but can you tell me if you were with him at the end? How did he behave? What did he say? I need answers from him."
"Ade Ade acted so contentedly." Lacus clung to the container, hissed, and replied, "He usually always complained that he instinctively loved himself and was forced to love the world, like an actor on stage, who was not in control of himself, and sometimes, he& didn't even know if his love and friendship were real "
"That's why I said we're a lot alike " Kaworu Nagisa laughed dumbly, "actors."
"He became like this to save C.C. C.C. told me that he said that this was the only choice he made, that it was done of his own will, that it was true freedom, so he was very content and had nothing to regret " Lacus trembled and covered her mouth, "He said that even death is freedom "
"It seems that he found the answer" Kaworu Nagisa sighed, "Only death is freedom "
Lacus remained motionless in her original position.
"I finally understand. Then, please give me freedom " Kaworu Nagisa's mouth rose slightly with a smile full of sarcasm, "Do you think I would say that, you actor? "
