Chapter 215 It’s you, Captain Cruze!
The hideout of Lux in the capital of the PLANT satellite cluster.

"Bah."

Lelouch closed the rather classic flip phone in his hand. Just now, he made several calls in a row.

In addition to the ZAFT military's counterintelligence department and the police department, he also informed a number of the official news media of the Adjusters.

And all the internet celebrities that could be found in a short period of time were asked to tell these people about Durandal’s tryst with Wang Hu of the East Asian Army as soon as possible.

We must make it known to everyone in the satellite group in the shortest possible time.

After finishing the call, Lelouch pulled out the card and destroyed the phone in one go.

Until this time, I watched everything the other party did from beginning to end.

Zhang Peng, who couldn't bear to watch it any longer, spoke up.

"You don't have to make such a big fuss. Aren't you really worried that Colonel Wang Hu won't be able to come back?"

Originally, Zhang Peng thought that Lelouch would at most tip off the ZAFT army, but who knew he would do this.

If he does this, won't Wang Hu end up being the enemy of everyone?
"Didn't I reveal Wang Hu's appearance to anyone?"

Lelouch said something he didn't even believe, and turned to look at Lacus who was sitting next to him.

"Just wait a moment, and we can go save the Kulain faction."

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Lelouch-san."

She showed a proper smile, and Lux's eyes were full of smiles.

So Wang Hu went to see Durandal?

Although at this time Lux knew that she had misunderstood Wang Hu.

It's not that he didn't come, but that he went somewhere else.

But sometimes women don't have to be reasonable, they have such privilege.

Not to mention that women sometimes hold grudges.

Lux has not forgotten how Wang Hu treated her on the Archangel.

And Durandal, the biggest suspect in smearing himself, is not a good person either.

So if we could take this opportunity to bring these two together.

It's a good look for two guys who are both his enemies.

In principle, Lux is very happy to see it, didn't you hear it?

Lacus even used honorifics to address Lelouch, which shows how happy this girl, who has always been shy, was at that moment.

Ruined!
Seeing that the two people in charge had the same attitude, Zhang Peng said that his ability was limited.

Colonel Wang Hu, you're on your own.

"Don't worry, Wang Hu won't die that easily."

I didn't expect that in this mission, in addition to fighting with Zaft, I would also have to deal with the ill intentions of my own family.

It can be said that Mu's eyes were opened. He came to Zhang Peng with his arms folded and comforted him.

"I hope so." Zhang Peng glanced at everyone in the audience and sincerely felt that perhaps only the guy next to him was a little more reliable.

He made up his mind to prepare for this mission, and he brought his silly apprentice with him to huddle together with Mu for warmth.

"Major Mu, please take a look at this."

Lelouch suddenly called Mu who was beside Zhang Peng over. Mu, who just wanted to watch the show, was about to get into big trouble!
"This is?"

He walked over as he was told, and in addition to Mu, Zhang Peng also came over.

When the two saw clearly what Lelouch took out, they were stunned.

The white uniforms of the Zaft Army are not uncommon. Isn't it natural to change their attire when conducting infiltration operations?
But what does the mask and the golden half-long hair mean?
Zhang Peng, who didn't know much about this person in the world, was confused.

But when looking at these things in front of him, Mu suddenly thought of someone!

"You want to!" He looked uncertainly at Lelouch, who had a subtle smile on his face.

"Lao. Lu. Cruze."

He took on the standard Lelouch Great Demon King pose, crossing his legs and resting his hands on his knees.

Lelouch's eyes were full of amusement.

"I've read that man's profile. Major Mu, you and he are very similar in height and build."

“Even the facial contours are exactly the same.”

"Since the last battle, the United Army announced that Mr. Cruze was dead."

"But Zaft has never admitted it, and the military has also reportedly denied the United Army's propaganda."

"By the way, Zaft said that Mr. Cruze is on a secret mission. Look, this gives us an opportunity."

"Stop joking, okay?"

Mu stared at the same mask as Cruze with complicated eyes, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

That Cruze, who has an evil fate with me, now wants me to pretend to be him!
Mu Ben was extremely unwilling in his heart.

"Even if the body shape and everything is exactly the same, what about the voice? My voice is different from his."

"Besides, I can't learn the way he speaks!"

Mu still wanted to find excuses to shirk his responsibility.

"Not a problem. Put this on your Adam's apple and you can naturally speak like Cruze. As for the way of speaking."

With a proud smile, Lelouch said that Cruze's way of speaking was still inferior to mine.

"This……"

After looking around, Mu was forced into a situation where he couldn't get down, so he had to bite the bullet and pick up the clothes on the table.

"Is this feasible? What if Major Mu is recognized?"

Zhang Peng looked at the reluctant Mu, and he wanted to say a few good words to help this kind-hearted friend.

"no problem!"

Lelouch waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Peng's words, and the already excited Lelouch ignored him completely.

Seeing this, Zhang Peng murmured in silence.

After a while, Mu came out after changing his clothes.

As soon as she appeared, Lux was the only one among the people present who had seen Cruze in person.

She couldn't sit still and stood up, her eyes wide open, unable to believe what she saw.

"Like, very similar."

Looking at Mu who looked exactly like Cruze, Lacus exclaimed in amazement.

"Hmph, just as I expected."

Lelouch let out a ridiculous laugh, stood up, waved his hands and shouted.

"Set off."

Then, while Wang Hu and Dilandal were still making intensive preparations.

Accompanying Captain Bartfield's adjutant Martin, Muban Kruze has already appeared in the Zaft Army's secret prison.

"Captain Cruze!" Even Lacus couldn't tell the difference, let alone the ordinary Zaft soldiers in the prison.

Although he hasn't made a public appearance for a long time, he is still a top idol in the military.

Several green-clad officers on duty shouted in admiration.

"Ah."

Following Lelouch's instructions in the headphones covered by his hair, Mu nodded calmly.

"Chairman Patrick, let me take a look at those people from the Kulain faction."

"Yes."

Captain Cruze, a close confidant of Chairman Patrick, only came to see the criminals of the Kulain faction.

None of the green-clad men at the scene became suspicious. They loudly agreed to their request and opened the door.

Fortunately, they are still soldiers after all, and they knew to report to their superiors.

So when Muban Cruze was almost reaching the room where the members of the Kulain faction were imprisoned.

"Captain Cruze!"

The black-clad warden who was in charge of security here rushed over in a hurry.

"Hey, Lelouch, he didn't call that Patrick, did he?"

He asked in a low voice about Lelouch who was hiding outside somewhere. Mu was so scared.

If the other party calls me, wouldn't I be falling into the tiger's mouth?
"Don't worry, I've read all his information."

Lelouch's voice then rang out in the headset.

This was achieved thanks to the support of the Kulain faction and the full cooperation of underground workers in East Asia.

In the original world line, the Kulain faction dared to kidnap the captured Aslan at the door of the ZAFT military headquarters.

Afterwards, it was successfully transported to the Eternity.

This time, the Kulain faction and the East Asian underground workers joined forces together.

The energy they burst out at this time is naturally far greater than that on the original world line.

Having considered this problem a long time ago, Lelouch had already had people cut off all the telecommunications base stations and landline telephone lines in the area.

Not to mention that the man in black in the prison didn't call to verify, even if he wanted to call.

Then his call will also be made to Lelouch.

"Captain Cruze, I haven't seen you for a long time. I hope you are in good health."

Running in front of Mu, the black-clad warden also failed to realize that the Captain Cruze in front of him was a fake.

A standard salute, the black-clad warden extended his hand as he introduced himself.

"I'm the warden in charge of this place, Nellie Harlan. It's an honor to meet you here."

"Hello, I'm Lao Lu Kruze."

Holding the other person's hand, Mu Qiang shook it calmly, then quickly withdrew his hand and turned his head away.

He pretended to be observing the security of the prison, but in fact he spoke again according to Lelouch's instructions.

"You have received the message from the satellite group, right?"

"News? You mean!"

Staring at Mu with sudden realization, Nellie instantly thought of the news he had just seen.

"The Qilin King Tiger of East Asia is now in this satellite."

With a mysterious smile like the real Cruze on his lips, Mu slowly got into the state.

The whole body seems to exude the charm that a genuine Cruze should have.

"Wang Hu!"

As Lelouch had expected, Nellie perked up at the news.

"That evil traitor has set his sights on this place? No wonder Captain Cruze, Speaker Patrick's right-hand man, has to come here in person."

"Are they coming to jailbreak?"

"There is a possibility."

Mu nodded and walked forward towards the depths of the prison, speaking as he walked.

"According to reports from enthusiastic people, in addition to the Kulain faction, there is private contact with East Asia."

"It's possible that the neutral faction is also conspiring with East Asia, such as Senator Durandal, who has recently gained fame among the neutral faction."

"There is reliable information that Wang Hu is now at his home."

"what!"

The successive pieces of news shook Nelly's heart to the point of confusion.

It’s not enough that there is a traitorous group like the Kulain faction in PLANT, now even the neutral faction is unreliable!
"These bastards, do they really not want to see us adjusters?"

"For the sake of their own power, everyone is begging for mercy from natural people!"

"Sure enough, the future of the Adjusters still depends on us, the Sara faction!"

Filled with indignation, it doesn't matter what this Nellie is thinking.

In front of Mupai Kruze, he took every opportunity to express his loyalty to Speaker Patrick from a distance.

"Ah."

We arrived at the destination of this trip, which was the cage where all the members of the Kulain faction were imprisoned.

Mu seemed moved by Nellie's loyalty.

"You have a heavy responsibility to prevent the Kulain faction's Lacus from coming to rob the prison."

"For the future of the Adjuster, you must be careful so that when we gain the final victory."

"You can also proudly hold your chest high and tell everyone that you have made an outstanding contribution to this great cause!"

"Yes, Captain Cruze, I will definitely follow your instructions."

It was great to hear such high praise for myself, especially from Cruze, the number one idol in the military.

Nellie was overjoyed. He immediately took two steps back and bowed 90 degrees to express his gratitude.

"Okay, open the cell to prevent a surprise attack from East Asia and the Kulain faction."

"Chairman Patrick requested that they be urgently transferred out, and members of the relevant departments will come to ambush them later."

"We're going to catch the turtle in the jar here."

Waving his hand to let Nelly get up, Mu said slowly.

"Transferring prisoners?"

Standing up, Nellie seemed a little hesitant, having not seen the warrant nor received any notification from higher-ups.

Is this appropriate?

Just when he was about to give himself some time to ask for instructions.

Suddenly all the lights in the prison went out!
