On the Archangel, Kira, who was sleeping, suddenly felt a wave of excitement and opened her eyes.
He looked at Flay, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and gently pulled his hand away. Although Kira was already very careful, she still woke up this lovely girl. Opening her bright eyes, Flay slowly woke up when she saw Kira's face. She first looked at her clothes.
Her clothes were still on, so it seemed like Kira didn't do anything inappropriate to her while she was sleeping.
"Kira, what time is it now?”
Then, Flay rubbed her eyes and got up from the bed.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Kira's eyes. He also knew that Flay was completely using him as a temporary umbrella. She was mainly by his side to seek psychological peace of mind. However, he could not resist this girl's 'seduction'. Just by staying by her side, Kira felt happy from the bottom of her heart. It didn't matter even if she was used.
He got out of bed and looked at the time.
"It's already the second day. Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat!”
"No need, I'll go by myself!"
Flay said as she got off the bed. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and her face slowly turned red.
"I'm sorry. I just remembered something and will be leaving first!”
She rushed out of the room in a panic as if she was running for her life. Kira followed him out, looking at the pretty figure disappearing at the end of the corridor hesitantly. Suddenly, a scene and voice appeared in the depths of his mind.
Flay, who was in the restaurant, kept a distance from Sai and the others. She looked troubled.
"What's wrong, Flay?"
Sai approached her eagerly, and Flay, who was startled, immediately ran away.
"Don't come over!"
Milia, who was also a woman, walked over and asked. Flay said embarrassedly.
"I went to ask where to take a shower just now. But those people said that the water supply on the ship has to be limited, so…"
Ah, so that's the case!
Sai Yi, Thor, and Carse suddenly understood. It was indeed difficult for girls in this aspect.
At this moment, the scene stopped. What appeared in front of Kira was a large ice field. There were also countless human silhouettes wandering on the icy plain, numbering in the hundreds of thousands…Finally, what appeared in the image was a world-shaking explosion.
！
Kira suddenly woke up from the wonderful illusion.
"That was…"
Kira knew the reason why Flay left in a hurry, but what was with the ice field, the phantom, and the explosion?
Could it be that what he saw was a scene from the future?
Or…
At this moment, footsteps came from afar. Kira looked up and saw Mu at the end of the corridor.
"Yo, young man, you're awake."
"What's the matter? Mr. Mu!"
"It's about that. Since you are the pilot, you should be responsible for the preparation work of the assault Gundam!”
Mu told Kira his reason for coming, and Kira nodded.
"I know, I'll go immediately! Oh right, Mr. Mu, is there a shortage of water on the ship?”
"Well, it seems so. There is no problem with the water supply for the sergeants, but for the civilians and the ordinary soldiers…you understand. After all, you picked it up!"
In that case, he was partly responsible for the lack of water on the ship. The crew of the Archangel did not exceed twenty people, but there were more than a hundred civilians. The water demand had increased by five to six times, which naturally led to the current situation.
However, since there was no problem with the water supply for the officer, he should be able to take a bath.
"I'm sorry!"
"It doesn't matter. In that case, we can't just leave the escape capsule alone!”
Mu understood Kira's behavior, probably because he was the same kind of person.
"Then I'll take my leave first, Mr. Mu!"
After saying goodbye to Mu, Kira went to the hangar, greeted Madrick, and began to organize the Gundam's OS. At the same time, Mu arrived at the bridge. Most of the crew were here, except for Kira's companions.
Mu asked as he sat in his temporary position.
"What's the situation now?”
"Reconfirmed. Within a radius of 5000, the enemy seems to be unable to find us.”
Jacky's report made the crew heave a sigh of relief.
" It's probably because 'Artimis' was there to block us and help us get away, right? Then I really have to thank it."
Mu said sarcastically.
"But…our problem has not been solved at all!”
Marius's expression turned gloomy. In the end, they still didn't get any supplies from Artimis. The Moon was facing them from Earth, and the supplies that Heliopolis had brought up in a hurry would not last that long.
Mu came to Marius 'side and asked her in a low voice.
"Seriously, how is it now? Is it very tragic?"
"We still have emergency rations for food…the problem lies in ammunition and water.”
"Water…Kira mentioned it just now. It's indeed a big problem!”
Mu also rubbed his chin, feeling a headache coming on. Water was the source of life. From now on, if they did not eat, they could survive until they reached Earth. However, without water, they might not even be able to reach the moon. More importantly, they were not the only ones on the ship. There were also a large number of civilians on board. They were the ones who used the most water.
"Anyway, let's think of a plan first. We need to conserve water as much as possible…and please help us with the refugees.”
Under such circumstances, they could only reach the moon as soon as possible. A simulation of the predetermined sailing route popped up on the screen.
"Is this the limit? Can't you find a better route?"
Natar asked impatiently as she looked at the huge and long arc on the screen.
Neumman shook his head.
"That's impossible. If the orbit was any closer to Earth, it would run into the gravel belt.”
"It would be much faster if we could get through the gravel belt.”
Marius said with a bitter smile, and Neumman responded with a bitter smile.
"But if we charge over at this speed, we might become a part of the gravel, right?”
The gravel belt referred to the area where space debris attracted by Earth would eventually drift. After humans entered the space domain, they would always throw abandoned artificial satellites or various wastes produced during the development of the universe into space. The space junk was floating at a certain distance due to Earth's gravity. It was like a graveyard for trash.
Mu muttered to himself as he stared at the screen.
"Wait a minute, is this a gravel belt?"
He seemed to have thought of something, and a smug smile appeared on his face as he looked at Marius.
"I might be a man who can make the impossible possible.”
"What do you mean?"
For some reason, a bad premonition rose up in his heart. Ever since this man boarded the ship, except for Kira's blunder, the other suggestions he made had perfectly solved the problem, but they were all very reckless. It was not an exaggeration to describe them as risky actions that were close to death.
What was he planning to do this time?
