[Code Geass] Irregular 163

Chapter 163 – 162. Recapture of the Prisoner

We headed to the aircraft operated by the correspondent. I wanted to bring them all, even if it was too much, so I tied them up like Vienna sausages and brought them all. Daichi and I took over the fainting Suzaku and Lloyd. When Suzaku woke up, it was clear that Daichi would be in danger if he was carrying him, so Suzaku gave Daichi the Lloyd I was carrying on his back.

“Wait here.”

Said in the aircraft. The researchers drove them all to the inside and crumpled them. Perhaps because of the belief that they would not kill if they stayed still, even if it was a little uncomfortable, the researchers did nothing and remained calm. In the case of Suzaku and Lloyd, they were put on cots because they passed out. Since Suzaku is a dangerous guy when he wakes up, he deliberately tied it up and finished it off.

“If I wait here, will Nana-ri come?”
“I’m sure he’ll come. Miss Romania will believe that she and Suzaku are one.”

I was sure Suzaku must have known that Lelouch’s true identity was Zero. Otherwise, when I was tackled earlier, I couldn’t say that. Rather, it is normal to be embarrassed.

Karen saw my expression on her face, nodded her head, and went back to her own seat. Seeing that Round’s machine had not yet appeared, it was obvious that he had gone to block the prison that the Black Knights had attacked. I was lucky. It was good if Lelouch succeeded in escaping the former members from prison, and it was good if he failed. Just as long as Lelouch doesn’t get caught. Same with C.C.

Others honestly didn’t know.

“Captain. I’m coming.”
“Already?”

While I was thinking that, Miss Romania approached me, pushing the wheelchair Nana-ri was riding in. Eight Britannia soldiers were escorting and accompanying Nanari from behind. 8 people is an irrelevant number of people. First of all, it matters how long you get on the plane.

Originally, there would probably be Nanari’s exclusive escape boat. However, unless Suzaku comes, it is dangerous for him to escape alone. Romayer had left the escape boat alone and expected that the correspondent would come by plane, but that prediction was correct.

This is because Nanari is a person who should not die from the standpoint of the Roman language now.

She would not be able to give up C.C’s bait, Lelouch, and Lelouch’s bait, Nanari, as she got a chance to impress Schneizel. He must have realized the true taste of power while setting up Nanari as the scarecrow governor and being involved in most of Area 11. There was no way she could let Nanari escape without Suzaku. Moreover, since the correspondent was also under Schneizel’s command, there was no reason for Romania to suspect the correspondent.

“Lina.”
“Yes. Captain.”

I only called Lirina, but Lirina seemed to immediately realize why I had called. Lirina, who had already been on standby wearing the same military uniform as Cecil’s from earlier, opened the hatch of the aircraft at my words and went outside. Romania came inside with Nanari without a doubt. The soldiers didn’t come in. He didn’t even have to kill the soldiers. The moment the plane takes off, Nanari becomes ours. Romanaire seemed startled to see Suzaku and Lloyd passed out. Then the hatch went up. The plane’s engine was turned on. Cecile stood there silently, unable to say anything, as Karen pointed a gun at her from behind.

“What!? Why are Lord Suzaku and Earl Lloyd lying down!”

Romania shouted at Cecil. Nanari seemed surprised by the Roman language. Because of the disadvantage of not being able to see, Nanari had no time to know what situation she was in.

As the aircraft moved, I came out in front of Roman. Romair was surprised to see me. Of course. It was because I didn’t know anyone among Britannia’s nobles.

“Kam Woo-jin!?”
“I saw it for the first time somewhere. It’s half words. Half words.”

I approached with a fierce glaring at Roman, and held Nanari’s hand, who was sitting there ignoring Roman. Nanari seems to have remembered me too. As soon as I held my hand, I recognized who I was.

“Senior Woojin?”
“Yes. Nanari. It’s time to go to Lelouch.”
“Lelouch… Is your older brother?”
“Yes. Lelouch is waiting.”

As I spoke while stroking her hair, Nanari’s expression became inexplicably strange. I would have only suspected what had happened, but would not have known anything. There was no need for me to tell you. That was what Lelouch had to do. After I said that, I gave Roman a chin with a cold look. Upon learning that I was already there, Romair gave up his resistance. He seemed to know very well that he would die if he tried.

I took Roma and led him to the inside of the aircraft that had taken off. Suzaku was also there. If Suzaku woke up now, I was the only one who could subdue him. Before I got off here and moved to the Black Knights’ hideout, I had to take care of Suzaku by myself. I gave up my seat to Romania, who had entered the room. She sat and looked up at me with her tense expression.

“Do you know what I’m thinking about right now?”
“…”

Roman did not answer. I chuckled. Maybe she knows what I’m thinking about right now.

“Give me one reason why I should keep you alive. If I think it’s valid, I’ll let you live.”
“No. Kill him. Just a murderer.”
“OK got it.”

Roman Ear seemed to have given up on her life. I happily nodded her head. I didn’t even want to share her story with Roman Ear for a long time. Since he knew Nanari, it wasn’t that he was unwilling to spare her if he really begged for her life. She had to save one of her, because she wasn’t even a big hit on our side.

Roman Ear chose her pride over the regrets of her life.

I lifted up Suzaku again and headed out, leaving the Roman language behind. Outside, Nanari was talking to Karen. Right. Karen and Nanari knew each other, right?

“Can I really meet my older brother? Yufi unnie too?”
“That’s right. You just have to be patient. I can explain why you were used by Britannia the moment you get off here.”
“It’s really fortunate… That Lelouch’s older brother is alive and well…”
“Yeah. Sooner or later we’ll really be able to live like we used to.”

Karen said that and held Nanari’s hand tightly. I was honestly dumbfounded. Karen was giving Nanari her empty check. Go back to the old days? When? I can’t even get a feel for it?

Because it’s already drastically different from the story, it’s normal for most stories to end this year. Charles dies, and Schneizel is defeated by Zero and becomes Zero’s slave. It is true that the story ends like that. However, the story has already completely changed. The war between Britannia and liberated Japan will begin. No one knows when the war will end. I’m not sure either.

“Aren’t you just picking up too many words to serve?”
“Woojin?”
“Are you Woojin senior?”

As I approached and asked, Karen and Nanari raised their heads. Still, it takes about a week to unlock Gears. The reason for worrying about disabling Gears is because Nanari’s legs can’t be helped, but her eyes can be fixed. Nanari’s eyes were closed because of Charles’ Gun Gears.

At that time, Nanari will be able to see the world through her own eyes.

I approached Nanari and sat on her lap. He did not hold Nanari’s hand.

“Nanari. Now Japan will be liberated, and we will go to war with Britannia.”
“War… Is it?”
“Woojin!”

I didn’t bother to lie to Nanari. Karen was taken aback by my remarks and stopped me, but I didn’t care. Ririna, who was watching from her side, dragged Karen and dropped her on me. It’s good that Lirina is so quick-witted.

“Yes. War. You don’t know how much blood will be shed. But it has to be done. It’s not for the liberation of Japan. If you don’t kill Nanari’s father, Charles G. Britannia, the happy world you want will never come.”

At my words, Nanari’s face was pensive. Because I didn’t tell her why she had to kill Charles, her head must be confused. I put my hand on Nanari’s head and stroked it. Nanari did not refuse.

“When you get off here, I’ll explain everything. You guys there, you guys are no exception. It’s time to know.”
“Yes!”
“…”

When I hinted that I was going to tell you a secret, Lirina answered loudly, and Karen made an uneasy expression. Did you have a hunch that I would tell you a serious secret, even though you didn’t know what to say? I nodded to Cecile, who was looking at me with the same expression. Cecil’s role would now be decisive. I don’t know what Lloyd will think, but he’s already been captured. Besides, they were more likely to help us if they told us a secret. Lloyd in the original work also cooperated with Lelouch, who became a tyrant after learning all the secrets.

[Im here.]

The voice of Daichi, who was aiming a gun at the pilot of the aircraft, echoed through the broadcast. Coo coo coo. I heard a sound and felt the airship attempting a vertical landing. The feeling of being stretched, and the hatch opened. It was inside the submarine where Kaguya and Rakshata were hiding.

I succeeded in recapturing Nanari.
