()||:[Berlin airspace, inside Schweinsteiger’s personal plane.]
()||<黑屏1>:
()Stasi Radio Operator||273<黑屏2>AVG_tele_connect:...Emergency report. A major outbreak of violence occurred between the Plotz and Wedding Boroughs.+We have verified twenty-odd people were injured.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
()||AVG_tele_disconnect:[Click.]+[He turns off the transmission, and there is an imperceptible shift in his expression.]
NPC-Bodyguard1(0)Bodyguard||:General, your plane will arrive at the capital within an hour.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
NPC-Bodyguard1(0)Bodyguard||:General?
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:I know. Leave me, I need some personal space.
NPC-Bodyguard1(0)Bodyguard||:Yes, sir.
()||AVG_door_elecport:[The bodyguard respectfully closes the cabin door, leaving Schweinsteiger alone inside his luxurious cabin.]
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:To think you’d be so impulsive…+You’ve gotten old, Oberstein.
()||AVG_tele_connect:Schweinsteiger shakes his head and laughs ironically before calling up Romy.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:Has it been taken care of?
NPC-Romy(0)Romy<通讯框>;NPC-Arla(0)||:Everything is going according to plan.+We are steadily erasing the traces in Berlin.
NPC-Romy(0);NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:I’m not just talking about internal business.+You know what I mean.
NPC-Romy(0)Romy;NPC-Arla(0)||:Yes. We’re also trimming back the outside tentacles.
NPC-Romy(0);NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:Well done… However, I sometimes wonder; were we too radical before?+After the “Fireworks” blossomed, the tension in Moscow seems to have spread to Frankfurt.
NPC-Romy(0)Romy;NPC-Arla(0)||:Please be at ease. No matter what decision you make, we will ensure you will always have the advantage.+In a war like this, information is power.
NPC-Romy(1)Romy;NPC-Arla(0)||:And now, all this supports you.
NPC-Romy(1);NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:You should head back to the capital once you’ve dealt with Berlin.
NPC-Romy(0)Romy;NPC-Arla(0)||:Sir.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:No matter how brightly the flames of anger burn, they will cool one day…+If he is unwilling to make a dignified exit, then we shall spare his dignity for him.
()||AVG_tele_disconnect:[Schweinsteiger adjusts his hat, coughs twice, then slowly walks up to his sofa and reaches out to pick up several roses.]
()||ClothingUp:[They are all of different colors – black, red and yellow, all stuck into a vase, their petals still coated with drops of water.]+[Their vibrant colors are like a flag fluttering high in the air.]
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:Hm?
()||BGM_Empty:[Schweinsteiger pauses briefly, then realizes there is an exquisite recording pen in front of his champagne glass.]
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
()||AVG_Button_Click:[He picks up the pen, and then presses the play button.]
()Oberstein||GF_21winter_avg_pathfinder:Good morning, General Schweinsteiger.+I hope I have not interrupted your breakfast.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
()||ClothingUp:[Schweinsteiger shrugs, then puts the pen down before sitting back on the sofa.]+[He does not seem the least bit surprised by the voice coming from the pen.]
()Oberstein||:I regret I could not speak to you in person.+But this will not affect our friendship.
()Oberstein||:I believe you will like the present I have given you.+I am certain that I cannot go wrong using it as an opportunity for us to make up with each other.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
()Oberstein||:At times, but only at times, it is natural for friends to have conflicting opinions, and arguments, while rare, are still normal.+But that does not mean they cannot make peace after the argument… Maintaining our friendship will do us both good.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
()Oberstein||:Compared to those outsiders, we are friends who can truly trust each other.
NPC-Arla(0)Schweinsteiger||:What exactly do you want… Minister Oberstein?
()||:[Schweinsteiger mutters to himself as he stares at the recording pen.
()Oberstein||:I do not want to see outside species in our garden.+Everything I have done has been dedicated to this end.
()||:As though he was anticipating Schweinsteiger’s question, Oberstein supplies his answer.
()Oberstein||:Trust me, General.+In the end, only we can help ourselves.
()||:[Oberstein’s voice trembles, and then turns warm.]
()Oberstein||:I guarantee that when everything is over, I will kindle our friendship brighter than it’s ever become.+Perhaps it is time to let the Stasi return to its glorious form from a century ago. I trust that you are an indispensable gardener within our garden.
()Oberstein||:May all be as it was.
()||AVG_tele_disconnect:[Click.]+[The recording pen stops working.]
()||ClothingUp:[Schweinsteiger removes his hat and sighs heavily.]
()||AVG_Knock:[Just then, there is a knock on the door.]
NPC-Schweinsteiger(0)Schweinsteiger||:I said, I wanted to be alone.
()???||:……
()||AVG_door_elecport:[However, the person outside doesn’t seem to have heard and opens the door.]
()||AVG_footsteps_woodfloor:[A waiter dressed in white enters. His face is blank and he is carrying a bottle of champagne.]+[Schweinsteiger is certain that he’s never seen this man before.]
()侍者||Stop_AVG_loop:Please enjoy.
()||:[The champagne bottle has “To friendship” written on it in bright red letters.]+[As Schweinsteiger sits on the sofa, his eyes unconsciously drift to the hidden doorway – His bodyguards are still on duty, yet they are paying no attention to what is happening in here.]
()||AVG_20Winter_Drink_Tea:[Meanwhile, the waiter before him doesn’t seem to have noticed Schweinsteiger’s gaze. He simply opens the bottle and then politely fills a glass for him.]+[The fizzing bubbles from the champagne make a pleasant sound in the glass.]
NPC-Schweinsteiger(0)Schweinsteiger||:……
NPC-Schweinsteiger(0)侍者<同时置暗>||:……
NPC-Schweinsteiger(0)Schweinsteiger||:......To friendship.
()||ClothingUp:[Without saying another word, Schweinsteiger picks up the champagne, clinks it against an empty glass, and downs it in one gulp.]
