Although NERV will let employees stay in centralized accommodation in order to maintain confidentiality, too much concentration will attract attention, so several employee dormitories are located in different neighborhoods.
At this time, Shinji Ikari, wearing a school uniform, was counting the door numbers in an unfamiliar employee dormitory building.
404,403,ah, here it is.
He lowered his head and checked the ID card in his hand.
【402, Ayanami】, that’s right.
Thump, thump.
Shinji Ikari rang the doorbell twice, but there was no response.
Really, Ritsuko Akagi is worthy of being a doctor, and overall planning or time management can be called a master level.
He went to Misato Katsuragi's dormitory to quarrel with her, informed Shinji Ikari of the analysis results of Unit-01, provided several optional solutions, and at the same time told him to hand over the ID card newly issued this month to Ayanami, all at once.
In summary, Unit No. 1 should have returned immediately for repairs when a foreign object appeared in the insertion bolt. However, because I relied on having a card to force it to continue fighting, there was a foreign object in the insertion bolt, and the synchronization rate with Shinji Ikari was 0.
% of the state is regarded as the normal state. Every time Shinji Ikari controls the machine synchronously through the LCL, it will automatically adjust to that state. In that state, Shinji Ikari cannot control Unit 1 through "normal means".
Of course, it is possible to enter the combat state through card control. In NERV's parlance, "runaway" is possible, but this condition can only be achieved by directly flicking Unit 1 into the apostle's face, or the apostle all the way into the underground fortress hangar.
It can only be achieved when the time comes. The former NERV headquarters will not agree, and the latter... the day lilies are already cold.
The solution provided by Ritsuko Akagi is to temporarily recruit Suzuhara Touji and Aida Kensuke, and let the No. 1 maneuver with the three of them squeezed into the bolt, and then find a way to eliminate these two "foreign objects" one by one.
, let Unit 1 return to its original synchronization state. Second, continue to improve its synchronization rate with Unit 1. If it regards the synchronization rate of about 60% as 0%, then as long as it increases to 120%, it will not
Has it returned to the original synchronization rate?
The former is very outrageous, and the latter is completely denying mathematics. Is there still room for improvement after the synchronization rate reaches 100%?
However, after a brief thought, Shinji Ikari chose the second option because he had his own guess as to why Unit-00 had a 0% synchronization rate, which was... Unit-00 was angry.
This idea would be ridiculous if spoken out, but for Shinji Ikari, who could regard Unit-1 as "Giant Ayanami Zero", it was normal.
Assume that Unit 1 is the "Giant Ayanami Rei", then the "synchronization rate" can be regarded as "her" "favorability" towards herself, and the lowering of the synchronization rate is a sign of "her" dissatisfaction with the presence of foreign objects in the insertion plug.
But because the situation was critical at the time, he ignored "her" dissatisfaction and forced "her" to continue fighting with cards. Although the battle was indeed won, "her" "favorability" towards him naturally dropped to the freezing point.
If he really dares to choose the first option and find Suzuhara Touji and Aida Kensuke to insert the insertion bolt, then there is a 99.89% probability that he will never be able to command the No. 1 maneuver again unless he uses cards.
One finger.
It may be possible to make ordinary girls angry, admit their mistakes honestly, talk sweetly, care about gifts or even stalk them - have you never eaten pork and seen pigs run away? But these methods will not work on Unit 1.
, does he want to join the maintenance team or equipment manufacturing team of Unit 1 to help?
So, considering the fact that the illusion of Unit-00 is "Giant Ayanami Rei", it may be useful to increase the favorability of "Mini Ayanami Rei". After all, if they have no connection, why do they look exactly the same?
What a coincidence, Ritsuko Akagi's second solution was to ask him to increase Rei Ayanami's favorability, er, no, to be precise, to increase the "synchronization rate".
Ritsuko Akagi revealed that Ayanami Rei's special ability as a "qualified person" seems to be "the synchronization rate with any EVA is fixed at 50%", which is why he serves as the official pilot of Unit Zero and the substitute pilot of Unit 1
, then, as long as he can synchronize with Zero's "AT force field", he should be able to obtain... a 25% synchronization rate from Unit 1, and then find ways to slowly increase it.
Regarding this, Shinji Ikari had no doubts. After all, he had seen in the "phantom" that even with the runaway Unit Zero, Ayanami Zero's synchronization rate with it was still fixed at 50% and motionless.
Based on my own guess and Ritsuko Akagi's statement, that is... half of the favor gained from "Mini Ayanami Rei" will be shared with "Giant Ayanami Rei".
This kind of behavior... Shinji Ikari can only hypnotize himself that they must be "the same person", otherwise they will definitely die miserably in the future.
"Alas..." He sighed, poked the doorbell twice more, which had no response at all, and then used his ID card to open the door: "Ayanami? I'm in?"
This should be the second time he has entered a girl's room, uh, no, it's probably the first time, after all, Katsuragi Misato can't be considered a "girl".
Shinji Ikari guessed that based on Rei Ayanami's character, there should be very simple standard furniture in the house, without any decorations or daily necessities, and only school uniforms in the closet. Judging from the fact that she was still wearing bandages and tape, maybe
There will also be various medicines, blood-stained bandages and gauze, etc., and the overall look will be a bit messy.
He guessed wrong.
This is an empty but extremely tidy room, with snow-white ceilings, walls and floors. Under the illumination of incandescent lamps, not even a trace of dirt exists. This room is so clean that it makes people feel like they are even taking off their clothes.
I'm too embarrassed to step in my shoes.
If you have to clean the room like this to improve the synchronization rate, wouldn't it be completely useless?
Although he really wanted to go back home, he had an important mission, so he had to bite the bullet and continue - by the way, Ritsuko Akagi didn't trick her into coming because she knew what was going on here, right?
"...Excuse me." Shinji Ikari took off his shoes at the entrance, clasped his hands and apologized to the floor, and then stepped into the house, looking left and right as he walked.
If she is not at home, she can only wait here. After all, the ID card will be replaced at the beginning of every month, and the old card will automatically become invalid. Holding the old card will not allow you to pass through most of the access control inside NERV.
I didn't know if Rei Ayanami would be angry if he came in casually... No, it's not okay no matter what I think... huh?
Living room - in theory, in the middle of the room, which should be the living room, there is a pair of very familiar glasses. It seems to be the same pair that Ayanami Rei used when he received the news of the apostle's attack. Previously, he was stunned by the empty white room.
Couldn't find it in time.
Being able to know that the apostles are coming so far in advance... I'll just put it on and have a look. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?
Shinji Ikari tried to pick up the pair of glasses and put them on his face.
Flat mirror?
Shinji Ikari was wondering that this pair of glasses seemed to have no prescription, when several rows of text appeared in front of his eyes.
[Rei Ayanami: Unit Zero pilot/Unit 1 pilot replacement.]
[Physical strength: 9, Intelligence index: 27, Mental strength: 24, Language ability: 3, Social adaptation: 5, Moral concept: 1, Sensibility: 0, Fatigue: 20, Synchronization rate: 50%/50%,
AT force field strength: 4000]
Misato Katsuragi’s set is quite versatile?
Finally there is someone with lower morals than me hahaha...
This number is obviously abnormal! How did you arrange the schedule? Who is the guardian? Come forward!
Oh, it seems to be dad...
Drop, crash.
[Fatigue level: 20→0]
As the numbers on the glasses updated, the sound of the sliding door opening came from behind Shinji Ikari.
"Ayanami, I——"
etc!
Shinji Ikari turned around and was about to finish the job when he realized something was wrong. In Misato Katsuragi's itinerary arrangement system, there are many ways to reduce fatigue, but it can be done in the dormitory, and there is only one way to reduce fatigue by 20 in one go, and that is... taking a bath
bath.
It's over, it's too late, she will kill him with a utility knife.
The next second, a girl with blue hair and red eyes walked out while wiping her hair with only a towel on her shoulders.
