Morais's military career made him very good at mobilizing everyone's emotions. After he took advantage of the opportunity of the Equality Association to give a speech two years ago, everyone was full of fighting spirit to carry out a phased settlement with the government early next year.
Before the meeting ended, Morais took out the letters in his hand and read them. Those letters were the letters that Francis and Chris had exchanged in the past. The problems they had solved were now brought up again, which made people smile. They
Unresolved things are thought-provoking.
Perhaps one day in the future, the confusion they are facing at this time will be read to the new generation of revolutionaries like the letters of Francis and Chris. I hope that the new generation of revolutionaries will just smile after hearing this.
, because those of their generation who are so confused already have the answer.
Verac listened silently as Morais read the letter.
These letters were left in the Equality Association when he was running away with money. Now that he is listening to them, his thoughts are all over the place.
"This ends the meeting. I hope that no matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, comrades will continue to have full fighting spirit and take the initiative to fight! The meeting is adjourned!"
Morais also took into consideration the rest of the comrades in holding this meeting, so when it reached nine o'clock, he ended the meeting in a timely manner.
"Let's go." Keating stood up.
Verak found Nord, Diaz, and Murphy who were also attending the meeting, and the five of them left together with the flow of people.
"Verak!"
Just as they were about to go out and enter the hotel through the tunnel, Verak heard someone calling him in the noise behind him. He turned around and saw that behind the crowd, Morais was waving to him.
"Teacher, Morais called me, you go back first." Verak and Keating said hello, letting the four of them go first, and he went against the flow of people and came to Morais, "What's wrong?"
"What are your plans for tomorrow?" Morais took Verak to a corner and asked.
Verak replied: "In the morning, I will prepare for the third training session with Teacher Keating. In the afternoon, I will continue to serve as a consultant to the intelligence department. You should also have a meeting with me in the evening."
"Haha..." Hearing that Verak was still teasing himself, Morais laughed a few times, then calmed down for a few seconds and lowered his voice, "Come with me to the North District tomorrow and talk to Chloe."
"Why me? And why do you want to talk to Chloe?" Verak and Chloe didn't like each other, to the point where neither wanted to see the other.
"There is only one month left before our operation. Although all links are being gradually implemented, I am still a little worried about using half the strength of the Equality Society to fight against the government, so I want to test Chloe's tone one last time. If there is any
If we hope, we can persuade him to bring people in to improve our strength and certainty of victory. If there is no hope, then
Find a way to take the opportunity to appease him and prevent him from noticing something is wrong and ruining our plan." Morais answered the second question asked by Verak first, "As for why I called you, there are many reasons. Regarding your appearance, you are in another situation.
You have a very tricky angle and a far better understanding of Chris than we do. You are also a typical example of persistence in resistance..."
Morais listed seven or eight various reasons.
"I think there is no hope." Verak has no expectations for Chloe, "but it is feasible to go see him with the idea of pacifying him to prevent him from doing anything. Then when should we set off tomorrow?"
"Eight o'clock." Morais set the time neither too early nor too late.
"Okay, then I will meet you before eight o'clock tomorrow." Verak nodded and accepted the matter, "Is there anything else?"
Morais shook his head and stopped Verak, who was about to turn around and leave: "Wait a minute."
"how?"
"I know it's hard to convince him, but once convinced, the situation will become better, so no matter what, we have to fight for it, and we can't just meet him to appease him." Morais emphasized, not wanting to
Verak was really the one who comforted him in the past.
Verak chuckled lightly: "I'm just kidding you. I know which one is more important. As long as I have the chance, I will do my best to make him recognize the reality and give up his fantasy."
"That's fine, go get some rest early, see you tomorrow!" Morais was relieved and smiled.
"Yes." Verak nodded and returned to the hotel.
On the fifth floor of the hotel, Keating, Nord, Diaz, and Murphy stood in front of his door, waiting for his return.
Seeing this, Verak came forward and said, "It's nothing. Morais just asked me to go with him to talk to Chloe tomorrow."
"He wants to try again?" Keating asked.
"Yes, after all, it's best if we can put aside the past grudges and unite." In the cool corridor, Verak wrapped his clothes tightly and said, "Even if it doesn't work, we can still assess the situation and adapt to the situation, so as to calm Chloe down and prevent him from attacking us next.
Act suspiciously.”
"Hmm..." Keating mused.
Diaz interjected: "We have also had some dealings with him. This person is quite stubborn and is not so easy to explain. If Comrade Morais hadn't come up with a new way, he would have persuaded Crowe in the same way as before.
Eh, that must not make sense."
"I don't know if he has any new breakthroughs, but he only asked me to accompany him. I'm very curious about how he wants to use me to persuade Chloe." Verak took out the key and opened the door, "Stop standing outside.
, the room is warmer, come in and talk."
"No need." Keating, who had thought to no avail, did not come in. "There is no doubt about Morais' ability. Even if he is not completely sure, he at least has some new ideas. In addition, I think he has more considerations.
It’s the second anniversary of the Equality Association, and this is the most suitable day to use reason and move emotions.”
"really."
"Tomorrow... do your best." Keating had high hopes for Verak, but did not put too much pressure on him.
Convincing Chloe to talk less can increase the success rate of the operation by 30%. Weapons and manpower will be compensated, and there is no need to worry about being stabbed in the back by one of your own at the critical moment.
"Don't worry." Verak said.
He knew that Keating was not worried about not being able to negotiate, because the probability of not being able to negotiate was extremely high, and Verak was not a god and could not continue to create miracles. What he was afraid of was that Verak was indecisive about things, had a weak heart, and would back away from Crowe if he dragged him away.
What did Yi do to cause disaster?
In other people's eyes, Verak has almost no shortcomings, but in his eyes, Verak is young and energetic, and he firmly advocates breaking up with people like Chloe, which may affect the conversation.
Verak said "Don't worry", which also meant that Keating had nothing to worry about. The overall situation was the priority and he would not affect Morais' plan no matter what.
"That's it, let's all go to bed early." Keating looked around at the people and planned to go back to his room.
"By the way, teacher, I will only have to work hard for you and Comrade Piaf to prepare for the third training class tomorrow." Regardless of whether the conversation goes smoothly or not, Verak will definitely not have time to help Keating tomorrow morning.
"It's okay, the five first-term student assistants will come in handy." Keating is not short of people.
"That's good."
"Okay, let's rest." Keating didn't stay long, and he and Nord returned to their own rooms.
Verak closed the door, took off his clothes after washing and lay on the bed.
He didn't get much rest during these days. It was rare that he could go to bed before ten o'clock. He cherished this opportunity very much.
——
December 5th
Verac got up at seven in the morning, had breakfast with Keating and Piaf, and then met Morais.
"Looks like he's well rested and full of energy." After meeting in Morais' office, Morais praised Verak's mental outlook.
Verak sat aside: "You too, it's rare."
"When I'm going to meet with Chloe, no matter how busy I am, I have to have a good rest the night before. Otherwise, if he sees me with dark circles under my eyes or looking depressed the next day, it won't be good for us no matter what he speculates about." Morais
Explaining the reason for taking a good rest is one of the details of the conversation.
"It seems that you have made sufficient preparations for this conversation." It is now 7:35, and there is still some distance before they set off. Verak first calmly asked Morais about his plans.
Now that we are well prepared, we can cooperate with each other when we go there.
"I want to talk with him and his cadres." Morais sat at his desk and planned out today's work, while briefly talking to Verak about his thoughts. "It's the second anniversary of the Equality Society. It's appropriate.
Talk about the past, talk about the hardships we suffered because our determination to fight was not thorough enough. Even if I can't convince Chloe this time, I have to try to convince his people, and through his people, it doesn't matter if he doesn't care.
Willing to influence the attitude of his comrades over there."
"According to what you said, it would be better to have a meeting over there like the one we had last night." Verak understood Morais's thinking, and it was nothing more than taking advantage of the second anniversary of the Equality Association to coordinate with him.
, explain all the principles clearly, and count as many as you can impress.
Morais smiled bitterly: "I think the question is, how could Chloe watch me hold a large meeting with him to expand his influence? At most, I gathered his cadres in the name of negotiation.
Get up and talk carefully."
"Haven't you said it before? Logically speaking, you should have said it. If this method could work, they would have united and cooperated with us long ago."
"I've talked about it before, but it's not thorough. This time I have some more complete preparations. It can be regarded as the last battle. If it doesn't work this time, I will give up." Morais concluded, "
Either they give up their illusions, or we give up our illusions, and there must be a result today."
"Okay, then I'll listen to your arrangements." Verak has no idea about this matter. He would rather take on another job outside of the training class and the intelligence department than bite the bullet and contact Chloe. But now
Morais made a prudent decision, and he could only cooperate fully.
Morais was busy for about ten more minutes. After formulating the work items, he handed it over to his subordinates: "We're done, let's set off."
Verak followed Morais to the hotel first, then entered an alley through the back door of the hotel, then turned a few forks in the alley, then got into a truck and rushed to Chloe's terminal in the North District.
"You have a very strong sense of prevention." Verak couldn't help but sigh after getting in the car.
He had only gone out once since returning to Lezein, and that was the time when he and Elizabeth went to the cemetery to see Colin and Chris. At that time, Elizabeth drove directly in front of the hotel, which was nothing compared to Morais.
Extremely bold.
"It's okay for others, but it's better for people like us who are on a wanted warrant not to show up. Moreover, during this period, the government openly removed the wanted warrant to express its goodwill to us, but secretly increased the intensity of searches.
When trying to find our clues, you can't be careless at this time." Morais explained the reason.
"Has our place been searched?" Verak asked.
"Of course, the hotel is a key search location, and the casino has a complex staff, so it is easy to be targeted. There have been three waves of people investigating in the past two days alone." Morais did not tell Verak about this matter. In fact, they every
We are undergoing severe tests every moment. This is what we have to face in Lezein, right under the nose of the enemy. "The trouble is that the government has made peace with us on the surface, so they don't know how to investigate.
Special agents from the Intelligence Department disguise themselves as ordinary people and wander around in various places. These are the people we are mainly wary of."
Verak narrowed his eyes: "This should be written by Rock Shriver."
"Yes, we are an old rival." Morais lit a cigarette in the carriage. "In addition, according to our preliminary investigation, he is also responsible for keeping Boyin and Daniel under house arrest."
"Sooner or later we have to settle accounts with him," Verak said.
The Equality Society has a bloody feud with the government intelligence agency headed by Rock Shriver. Francis was assassinated, the purge operation in which Chris died, etc. were all carried out by the Rock Shriver organization.
"Of course, the purpose of establishing our intelligence department this time is to let him experience what we have experienced." Morais hated Rock Shriver with hatred. "After that, it is best when we attack the government building.
If I can meet him, I will personally avenge so many comrades who died because of him."
After driving for more than an hour, the car arrived in front of the antique store in the North District.
People from the Equality Association were monitoring this neighborhood, so after ensuring that there were no government people, Chloe's subordinates opened the compartment cloth and took Morais and Verak out of the car without any rest or stop.
, went straight into the conference room.
The terminal where Chloe stayed was much poorer than the one in Morais, and their residential area was not as convenient as the one in Morais. You could go back and forth directly through the tunnel.
This is mainly because Chloe's funds were mainly used for maintenance, while Morais was more far-sighted. He used money to purchase many properties, making money make money, and brought a bright prospect of sustainable development to the Equality Association.
"We meet again." In the conference room, Chloe's face looked gloomier than before. He said hello to Morais who had just entered the door, and gave Verak a cold look.
"Where are the others?" Morais sat down with Verak.
