MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 516 conversation
Leicester City, International Equality League Office Building, Keating's Office
【Dear Chairman Keating, after the unanimous decision of all members of the General Liaison Office of the Laizein Wartime Action Team of the International Equality League, we reject your proposal to use hostages to exchange us. We will stick to the warehouse and never compromise with the government forces. The following are the last words I said as a comrade, as your former prison mate, and as your student. 】
Keating silently read the telegram.
There is obviously something behind this telegram that has not been sent out in time. It must be that the government forces have already attacked them.
"You..." Minister of Intelligence Charles, Minister of Propaganda Piaf and others rushed over immediately after hearing the news, for fear that Keating would fall down because of Verak's accident.
In that case, the International Equality League will no longer have a suitable person who can take the lead.
"...I'm fine." Keating's voice was very soft.
He is struggling to accept this fact.
The entire Dunman substation was annihilated, and when Veraker was depressed, he and Veraker made a promise to each other, agreeing that no matter who sacrificed for each other, the other party should not be immersed in grief and cannot extricate themselves. expectations.
What's more, Boyne and Morais died one after another. He served as the chairman of the International Equality League in the most dangerous situation.
Never fall down.
"...Is everyone here?" Keating took more than ten seconds to calm down, and then asked.
"It's all in the conference hall." Piaf said cautiously.
"...Let's go to the meeting." Keating stood up slowly with his hands on the desk.
Piaf wanted to step forward to help, but Keating raised his hand and refused.
"you…"
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Keating's voice gradually regained strength, his eyes became more determined, and he walked towards the door, "A meeting."

Laizein, Government Building, Office of the President
President Auston is in a state of panic because he suspects that General Celter is plotting something.
He can't wait to remove Celt from his position immediately and mobilize his cronies to return to Laizein, but everything is just suspicion, and he doesn't have even the slightest direct and strong evidence.
But what annoyed him the most was that he didn't dare to send anyone to investigate again.
What if the face is torn with Celt because of this move? If you are in a hurry, will the other party attack you?
There is no room for maneuver, so this decision has become extremely cautious.
"Boom boom boom."
"Come in."
Alston took a deep breath, cleared all kinds of random thoughts in his mind, and looked at the subordinates who walked into the office.
"Mr. President, General Selter called and invited you to the North District Prison." The subordinate said.
"North District Prison?" Alston frowned, trembling, "What are you doing there?"
Under high tension, he even misinterpreted the invitation as Celt wanted to put himself in prison, and he didn't say 'grab' but 'please' just to save face.
The subordinate said respectfully: "General Celt said that they arrested all the people in the general liaison office of the International Equality Alliance Action Team, including the vice-chairman of the International Equality Alliance, Moster Vilak, and the action team. All the captains. These people are currently locked in the North District Prison, so General Celt would like to invite you to go and have a look. After all, Veraker's status is very special, and it is up to you to decide how to deal with it."
"What?!" Oston stood up abruptly, "Verak was captured?!"
"Yes, Mr. President."
"Good... good... good!" Auston's expression changed from shock to ecstasy.
This is not only because the action team of the International Equality League will collapse and will no longer pose a threat. Most importantly, even Verak has been arrested. Could Celt's previous incidents be fake?
impossible!
That is to say, Lazer was wrongly judged by the intelligence chief Alger, and in the end he was beaten to death by angry people who happened to recognize his identity on the way to the prison.
Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings.
"Prepare the car!" Alston breathed a sigh of relief, and all the troubles in his heart were swept away.
"yes."

Lezerin, Northside Jail
When Veraker was escorted in, Celt specially distinguished him from the others and placed him in the reception room with the highest standard and the best treatment.
"It's not the first time I've been in prison. According to my experience, I shouldn't be here, right?" Verak, whose hands and feet were handcuffed, walked into the reception room as soon as he walked slowly. He asked with a half-smile.
Celt, who walked into it with him, made a gesture of invitation, and then sat opposite Verac on the sofa: "It is not our hospitality to put the No. 2 person of the International Equality League today directly in prison. way."
Verak then smiled: "So, I'm a guest?"
"It depends on how you choose." Celt crossed his legs and raised his head slightly, giving him a condescending feeling while sitting flat.
"Continue to talk." Veraker was much more natural than the domineering Celt. He sat comfortably on the sofa and raised his chin at him.
"I want to start with two closely related aspects of this matter." Celt folded his arms around his chest, "One is the situation of Bresci, and the other is the international situation."
"Should it be so big?" Verak kept smiling.
When he was arrested this time, his state of mind was completely different from when he entered Daimans Prison.
Now, nothing can scare him.
Therefore, facing a character like Celt, his heart is extraordinarily peaceful. The more aggressive the opponent is, the more he wants to restrain him, the more calm and natural he is, so that the opponent can't help but go crazy, and finally falls first.
"Do you know what it's like outside Brisey now?" Celt asked.
"Pluman went all the way to the west and occupied the entire territory of Lombard in a very short time. He also united with his allies Sdr and Bash to attack Castellan and Wellland by land and sea respectively," said Verak. .
"what about others?"
"Dunman is busy lending money to various countries and selling arms, Shennai is trying his best to profit from Niro, and the civil war in Montrego will have to wait at least until spring and summer of next year to end." Verac added.
Selter applauded: "You are indeed the vice chairman of the International Equality Alliance, and you have a good understanding of the international situation."
These words are obviously a compliment, but in fact they are belittling.
As a high-level executive of the International Equality League, it is normal to know this most basic information. Celt deliberately pretended to be surprised, just to try to anger Verak.
But Verac didn't say anything, he didn't bother to work **** such low-level tricks.
"Then, let's go a little deeper. What do you think the international situation will be like in a few months?" Selt continued to ask.
"The alliance of Pruman, Sdell, and Bash is very strong, and the situation of Castelia and Wellland is not optimistic. At that time, Dunman will not sit back and watch Pluman, Sdell, and Bash become so strong Enough to sweep the entire world, they should also intervene, at least try to mediate as a middleman."
"So what if Dunman's mediation fails?"
Villac knew what Celter meant: "Then Bresci's situation is crucial."
"Oh? How to say?" Celt pretended not to understand.
"Although Brexi is in chaos now, and the Equality Army and the government army are inextricably fighting, but after all, the national strength is second only to Welland. Once the unity can be restored as soon as possible, it will definitely become a force that cannot be underestimated." Verac is very patient. He said, "From now on, it will be very simple addition and subtraction. Wellland plus Castella, plus Blessie, the strength on paper is similar to that of Pullman, Sdell, and Bash. At this time, Dunman, who has earned a lot of money, will stand by Willand and become the victor and the biggest winner of this world war. There will be no problem."
Selter, who lit a cigarette, nodded in agreement: "You guessed right, and things will happen much earlier than you expected."
Verak didn't speak.
Before Veraker could ask, Celt had no choice but to tell the whole story: "It doesn't take a few months. Dunman has already anticipated the situation at that time, so they are sending people to assist us in exterminating you so that we can focus on Put it outside and keep the balance of the situation."
"That is to say, Dunman regards you as a weight." Verak in turn mocked in a joking tone.
"Win-win, why not?" Celt also did not lose his temper.
"Go on."
"We have already talked about the situation in Brisey from the international situation. Dunman's intervention cannot have a decisive impact on our war situation, but they can speed up the time required for us to defeat you to the greatest extent. More directly Said, originally you could survive for a while, but now, there is not much time left for you to make trouble." Celt said.
Verak raised the corner of his mouth: "For so long, what you want to express in the end is that we are bound to lose. You hope that I can be a sufficient liaison to do the ideological work of the International Equality League, so that comrades can give up this meaningless struggle. , to restore stability to Bressy."
Selter let out a "huh".
"If I refuse, you will still say that our surrender is the best choice, otherwise Breci will not be able to solve the internal problems for a long time, and will be unable to externalize, Wellland and Castelia will gradually collapse, and eventually their lips will die. , Pluman, Sder, and Bash will point directly at Bresci, and Bresci will fall into the flames of war, and we will both lose."
"Hmmm. Don't you International Equality Alliance always say that you are fighting for the interests of the people? So you want to see the devastated scene of Brecy?"
"But, didn't you say that Dunman intervened, and you will be able to defeat us soon? So whether we surrender or not, it shouldn't affect the overall situation, right?" Verak accurately found out the contradiction.
Selter realized that he had fallen into the pit dug by Veraker, and his face suddenly turned ugly: "Of course, the sooner the internal problems are resolved, the better."
"Yes, it makes sense." Verak thought deeply, "But do you think your level is qualified to talk to me about this matter?"
"You are just a prisoner now." Celt's face turned livid.
"But I really have the ability to influence the direction of the International Equality League." Verak said boldly.
"Ah…"
"Okay, the conversation is over, take me to where I should be." Verak got up.
In fact, if he was the only one arrested, he would enjoy the treatment given to him by the government with peace of mind.
However, there are still many other comrades who are suffering severe tests. He must stand side by side with them, be a qualified example, and bring them a little strength within their power in the most desperate places.
"Don't worry about this, someone with qualifications will talk to you later." Celt motioned Verak to sit down.
"Could it be?" Verak had a vague guess.
"Yes, Mr. President."
"Okay, then I'll sit down for a while. Also, if you don't mind, give me a cigarette." Verac successfully asked for a cigarette from Celt.
Celt didn't lose his composure just because he didn't get a bargain in the confrontation just now. He helped Verac light the cigarette, and looked at the young man again with great interest: "It's hard to imagine that the number two in the International Equality League is so young."
"Some are younger than me, such as Francis, Chris, and Boyne." Verac casually mentioned a few people who were younger than him but more accomplished than him.
"I know, you won't compromise with the government." Celt stared at Veraker for a long time, and said something completely different from what he said before.
"I think this is the consensus of everyone, but it still can't stop you from fighting for it routinely." Verac took a breath, sat in the spacious reception room and looked out the window.
"Mr. President will repeat my words later."
"I don't mind replying again."
Celt seemed to be very curious about Verac and the core figures of the International Equality League. After finishing the scene, although his conversation was not friendly, it was much more sincere than the naked eye: "Why are you so Calm? Did you discuss it with Robin Keating before being arrested? He will find a way to get you out?"
"No one will come to save me." Verak said, "All of us are ready to sacrifice."
"You are all very important. Since you have been arrested, death is much more difficult than life." Selt raised his eyebrows.
"Oh." Verak didn't take it too seriously.
"I know what you went through in Daymans Prison. You were hard from head to toe, from the inside out. I'm not very worried about you. It's just a pity for your other companions. Not everyone can be as tough as you. Indomitable, the vast majority of people, no matter how fearless and powerful they thought they were before, have ways to make them show their true colors when they come to this kind of place." Selt finished smoking the cigarette first, and stubbed out the cigarette butt.
Verak looked at the sky outside with fascination, as if he didn't hear Celt's words.
Selter was very sure, and his own words poured into Veraker's heart: "You are worried about them in your heart, right?"
"Hiss... Huh..." Verak also stubbed out the cigarette butt, "We are all ready to sacrifice."
"Okay." Celt wanted to see how hard the bones of this group of people were.
"Boom boom boom."
"Enter."
"General, Mr. President is here."
