"It's fine, sir, he'll wake up in a bit."
Cagalli reassured.
"Alright."
The guard hesitated a bit, but eventually nodded.
Not to mention Cagalli's own identity, at this moment, her position in the anti-terrorism unit was equivalent to that of the national defense forces.
Moreover, she reported directly to Uzumi, which was not much different from the East Factory; in some matters, it was acceptable to act first and report later.
Fortunately, it was Cagalli; otherwise, if an ordinary person in Orb did this, they would have probably complained about her using excessive force.
Of course, at first, Cagalli did think He Kui's methods were too harsh.
But he was never wrong; everyone he knocked out turned out to be a spy.
After a few instances, both of them had no more doubts.
Of course, even if he made a mistake, he would still knock them out.
Just knocking out one person could potentially save dozens or even hundreds of lives; where could one find such a cost-effective solution?
In fact, Chisaka actually agreed with Cagalli's approach; after all, they were still under the threat of terrorist attacks and could no longer afford to be lenient.
No matter how gentle they were, those brainwashed terrorists would not reform; in chaotic times, strict measures were necessary.
However, he couldn't quite figure out when Cagalli's transformation had begun.
She had clearly seemed reluctant at first.
As he thought about tying people up, Chisaka glanced in the direction of the little girl.
His intuition told him that Cagalli's change was definitely related to this girl.
But Cagalli's change was a positive one, leaving him at a loss for words, and he could only maintain his usual poker face.
With no one to stop them, Cagalli and the other two approached McKinney's office together.
"Craig McKinney."
Cagalli directly opened the office door.
"We are from the anti-terrorism office and need to investigate your electronics."
Before Cagalli could finish, the uncle placed his hand under the table, but before he could make any move, Chisaka, who was beside Cagalli, and Owl, perched on Cagalli's shoulder, lunged forward.
A grenade immediately fell out from underneath.
The guards behind them began to panic and call for help, but Cagalli and her group, who had already learned the general situation from He Kui, were not surprised.
Only Cagalli's eyes brightened as she looked at the little sparrow in her palm.
The machine developed by He Kui, combined with his own abilities, was simply a masterstroke in anti-terrorism; thanks to him, Orb's losses could be significantly reduced.
While her fondness for He Kui grew, Cagalli also looked at the little sparrow in her hand.
He Kui had given her such powerful technology to protect her.
She wasn't unaware of He Kui's caution; it was precisely because she knew that her heart raced even faster.
"Check the computer."
Cagalli quickly snapped back to reality from her youthful musings, transforming back into that cool girl.
"Understood."
He Kui replied and approached the computer.
Soon, he had a complete grasp of the personnel data that had entered the country during his three years of service.
"How is it?"
Cagalli asked, a hint of nervousness in her voice.
"No problem, the data is still there."
"That's good. This way, we can stay one step ahead of them."
Cagalli sighed in relief upon hearing this.
Next, they just needed to trace back according to the list, and she believed they could capture some terrorists before they launched their attacks.
Not long after, the security supervisor arrived, and the rest was just some formalities that Cagalli could now handle with ease.
Seeing this, He Kui spoke to Cagalli and then withdrew his control over the little sparrow.
After He Kui stepped back, he didn't get up but opened another screen.
Although there was no close contact, he had just sent Cagalli quite a few gifts.
In addition to enhancing her physical abilities, the Space Hydroponic Pod had also appeared.
The emergence of this capability could potentially change the entire state of the world.
Roughly estimating, based on the cost of this food and the per capita output in PLANT, it was enough to allow everyone in PLANT to say goodbye to synthetic meat.
But how to utilize this knowledge?
It was impossible for him to keep this technology in a black box.
This meant that as long as he produced it, others could replicate it.
The path of exclusive production was difficult; he would definitely face opposition from both sides.
This wasn't just any technology; it was a technology for survival, and PLANT would definitely want to keep it in their hands.
It would be better to directly apply for intellectual property rights and then give the technology to PLANT. The downside of this approach was that he would earn much less money, but the upside was that his reputation would soar like a rocket. With such capital, he could easily enter the political arena of PLANT, and the goodwill from both sides would surely rise dramatically.
Overall, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.
And for him now, having more money was really just about the same.
To build a Gundam, he needed both money and power; neither could be lacking.
Lacus was a typical representative of this.
However, he couldn't say anything until the research was completely finished.
Not because he wanted to quietly amaze everyone, but because the Atlantic Federation and the other forces that knew this information would absolutely go crazy.
God knows how many spies they had on their side now.
In any case, it was better to be cautious and just research in his own hydroponic farm for now.
With that thought, He Kui headed directly to the hydroponic farm area.
"He Kui, what are you doing here!?"
Seeing He Kui, Mama He, who was still recording the growth of the plants, looked as if she had seen a ghost.
"Why can't I come here?"
He Kui replied, speechless.
"I heard from Sulei that you went to save the world."
"That was to upgrade the radar, and Sulei is very capable; with my data, she can handle it herself."
"Stop throwing your work onto the girls every day!"
Mama He grumpily twisted He Kui's ear.
It was clear that no matter whether he was a savior or not, he would always be that little boy in their eyes.
He Kui felt no pain and wasn't angry; he just looked at his lively mother and smiled happily.
"Mom, I want to learn how to farm!"
"???"
"You, the head of the Design Bureau in PLANT, want to learn how to farm with me!?"
Mama He exclaimed in astonishment.
"Something like that, but can you let go of my ear first? It's not good if others see."
Feeling the surprised mother's grip on his ear tighten, He Kui said softly.
"I didn't see anything!"
Meyrin, who had been squatting in the corner as a transparent person, cutely covered her eyes.
"Don't worry about him; what if you see something?"
Mama He shot He Kui a glare.
Her expression turned serious.
"Don't you need to research new technology? Why do you want to learn farming?"
"Because I suddenly had an idea."
He Kui smiled.
