After Verak took a nap, he did not come back for two nights in a row. Diaz and Murphy, who had not heard from him for nearly four days, finally returned to the hotel and came to his room.
"Talk about it." Verak originally planned to call Keating and Nord over and talk about the matter together, but he found that Diaz and Murphy had always had serious faces after entering the door, and he guessed that the outcome of the matter should not be the same.
It didn't go well, so I decided to listen to their report first.
"Found it." Diaz said with a sullen face, "Several military warehouses in Lezeinli were mobilized less than three months ago, and their troop strength was reduced. The government also stopped regular inspections, making them more and more vulnerable.
Relax."
Verak sat on the sofa and lost himself in thought: "Three months ago, that is when I was almost arrested and the Equality Association had its first head-on confrontation with the government."
"At the same time, it is also a time when the government is vigorously prohibiting the private sale of arms, and equality will lose access to weapons," Diaz said.
"So..." Verak and Diaz looked at each other and slowly concluded, "They did this on purpose."
"That's what Murphy and I guessed." Diaz was reluctant to admit it. He breathed heavily, "After all, after the government cut off our arms channels, it knew we were short of weapons and would try its best to fill the gap.
, it is impossible to unintentionally reduce the number of troops in the military warehouse. This is clearly to let us infiltrate and attract us to attack the warehouse, thus exposing the effective conspiracy."
Verak ordered: "Murphy, go and call Teacher Keating and Nord."
"Yes." Murphy went to call the other two people.
"Such a unified mobilization has revealed flaws at such a dangerous juncture. It is indeed hard not to think that it is a deliberate move by the government." Verak rubbed the bridge of his nose to relieve his tense and somewhat messy thoughts. "
This also proves that the government really does not want to negotiate with us, otherwise they would not have been setting up ambushes here."
Diaz couldn't hold back a sigh: "Then can we use this incident to make Chloe and the others recognize the reality and give up peace talks with the government?"
Verak snorted with disdain: "He is very good at thinking about the government, and he may even say that this is a normal precaution made by the government to avoid us regretting it. As long as we are single-minded, these will not be used."
"But if the government really accepts our demands, how can we give up the peace talks? Since they are on guard against us, it must mean that they have not planned that." Diaz continued to use logic.
"I have dealt with Chloe many times. I know him better than you do. He will not listen to these things. Telling him will affect our secret operations." Verak shook his head and crossed his arms across his chest.
I don't have any hope of reuniting with Chloe's group, "Let's put the focus back on the existing problems and think about what to do next."
"...Hmm." Diaz felt that it was such a pity. First, they fell short in this matter, and second, Chloe's important power could not be utilized.
After the two chatted for a few words, Murphy walked in with Keating and Nord.
"It didn't turn out well?" Keating went straight to the living room and sat down, getting straight to the point.
"Yes." Diaz told Keating the situation, conclusion, and conjecture again, and Nord listened to it again.
After hearing this, Nord could not accept that they would most likely give up this method, and racked his brains to think of other good possibilities: "Not necessarily, it has been three months, the government should not be so calm.
Well, I have been laying ambushes near these military warehouses for so long. And I have been there for a long time, and I didn’t notice anything wrong at all..."
"It is impossible for the Equality Society to take such a big risk to seize weapons." Verak understood Nord's mood, so when he interrupted him, his tone was as calm as possible, "Even if you can convince me to take the risk, I can't
Convince Morais. Because no one has the ability to bear the responsibility for the failure of the plan, and no one is worth dozens or hundreds of lives, nor is it worth a crucial step in the development of equality."
"But..." Nord wanted to say something more, but he held it back, and finally turned his back to everyone and stood alone in front of the window, letting his chest rise and fall violently.
"Rock Shriver and the government are both difficult to deal with. Yes, they are rotten to the core now, but that is still the government that rules this country. They don't know what we are doing, and we don't know what they have done.
What kind of preparations...it is impossible to take this risk." Verak made a formal decision to abandon the plan to rob the military warehouse.
No one present expressed any objection.
"But it's not all a bad thing." Verak changed the topic, cheering up the depressed people a little bit, "I just said, it's time for the World Expo to close soon, and we still don't know each other's details.
This also means that no one is sure of victory. But we noticed that there are problems in the military warehouse, which may be a trap set by the government, which exposes their omissions."
"What you mean is that we might as well follow the clues, take away all their disguises from the government's layout, and find out their preparations in advance." Keating and Verak had a clear understanding of each other, and at the same time they thought of the direction for their subsequent efforts.
change.
"That's right." Verak looked at the three Diazs one by one. "If we can find out the details of the government, this contribution will be no less important than filling the vacancies of weapons. Moreover, Morais had the foresight to not give up the hope of solving the problem of weapons.
It’s all on me. In addition to me, there are three other teams of people working hard to solve this problem, so we don’t have to bear too much pressure, we just choose to believe in them.”
Hearing that Verak had found a new road beside the blocked road, Nord, who was very angry, calmed down a lot. He turned around and listened carefully to Verak's thoughts.
"We have fully calculated, we still have twenty days. In these twenty days, if we can find out the details of the government, make timely response preparations, counterattack after the fighting breaks out, reduce our casualties, and ensure that the plan goes smoothly and successfully
If you complete it, then everything will still be worth it." Verak stared at Nord, "It's just that this new road will be more difficult to walk and there will be more risks."
"We're all here, we have to get there no matter what, otherwise wouldn't all the things we did before be in vain?" Nord finally felt that he had made a contribution, and he was monitoring around the clock and taking risks to break into the military warehouse.
Internally, it shouldn't end up in a meaningless ending.
Diaz also expressed his position for himself and his brother Murphy: "We have to do something more - I am not trying to avoid the previous efforts being in vain, but we should have taken a new one after one road died."
"That's right." Verak called Nord over to sit down and emphasized the difference between the two. "We do this because we have to contribute to the Equality Society, not specifically to prove what we have done before.
Those are valuable. Does the information we investigate have no value if it is not used? It helps us rule out a wrong path. Isn’t this meaningless? Don’t be dazzled by the so-called value and affect your judgment.”
"Yeah." Nord answered simply.
Verak didn't know whether he really understood or was simply dealing with him, so he continued to express his views on the new route: "If the government has really set a trap in this regard and is still so calm, it must have a big conspiracy.
, at least want to inflict serious damage on us. So I think we can take the initiative to expose it."
"Actively exposed?!" Nord exclaimed, and immediately realized that Verak would not come up with stupid solutions, so he smiled awkwardly, "You continue, you continue..."
"We made the mistake of sending people in to collect information, and deliberately let them know that they were our people." Verak said about his preliminary idea, "As long as we don't expose too much, the government will not be in a hurry to close the net, but will watch patiently.
Our people want to know what our plans are."
"We will then influence their decision-making through our deliberate fake actions." Keating smiled tacitly.
Verak snapped his fingers: "Just like Teacher Keating said, for example, if our people pretend to attack the military warehouse on New Year's Day, then the government will deploy heavy troops near the military warehouse before New Year's Day to prepare to catch us all.
There's a lot we can do to make them think we don't know they've discovered us."
"This is interesting." Nord's eyes lit up. Verak's trick was much more interesting and exciting than when he punctured the tires of a military warehouse truck. "You can lead the government away just like that?"
"What we strive for is to be able to find out the details of the government and lead them away. The worst result is that the government is very vigilant and will not be easily deceived by us. But such falsehoods and truths will more or less be true.
It affects the government's decision-making and creates opportunities for us." Keating answered.
Verak's mood gradually became clearer. He crossed his legs and relaxed on the sofa: "Teacher, do you think there is anything else you want to add?"
"Isn't today the deadline agreed between you and Morais? Go talk to him about this matter first. If Morais agrees and accepts the certain risks of our approach, we will make detailed plans." The fifth training session.
In a few days, Keating will be able to help.
"Indeed, whether it works or not depends on Morais." Verak nodded, "Diaz, Murphy, are you tired?"
"us--"
Verak then said: "You must be exhausted from catching up on tasks these days. You go back and have a good rest. Teacher Keating and I will go to Morais to discuss it. We will make good plans after the matter is settled."
"Yeah." Diaz knew that he had to see Verak, Morais and the others next, so he didn't worry too much and took his brother back to the room to rest.
"You should also go back and rest." Verak was about to leave.
"You must negotiate this matter." Nord said uneasily.
Verak was wearing a coat: "What?"
"If you can lead the government by the nose and trick them, why not trick them?" Nord said, "I know it is not easy to do this, but at least we have to make sure we can do it first, and then solve all the problems.
difficulty."
"You can talk the same thing now... Don't worry, I also hope this can happen." Verak put on his clothes and opened the door, "Go back and wait for the news."
"Then I'll go back first." Nord left.
Verak and Keating went to the first floor of the casino together to talk to Morais about the matter in detail.
——
On the first floor of the casino, Morais's office.
"It's interesting..." Morais listened to the whole story of the ups and downs, "In other words, you officially declared a failure in preparing weapons, but you found a good opportunity to deal with the government?
"
"That's right." Verak said, "I came to you just to ask for your opinion. If you think this matter is feasible, we will immediately start making full preparations for it."
Morais slowly took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled slowly: "This matter is risky."
"Um."
"What will happen if you accidentally reveal your equality? Or if you fail to influence the government, because the government is cautious, it has prepared a set of response plans for all our false and real possibilities?" Morais asked.
Various bad development trends, "These are all likely to happen. If they happen, at least our plan to attack the government building will be suspended, or at worst it will cause disaster."
"The intelligence department is set up to use various methods to instigate people to rebel against the government. What will happen if the rebellion fails? What if the other party pretends to defect to us, but actually wants to serve as an informant for the government? We have done many things.
There are risks, big or small, and they may be necessary or not necessary." Verak and Keating considered it carefully and agreed that this could be done and they should try their best to do it.
Morais listened sincerely and nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense. It can be seen that you all think it is necessary to take risks in this matter. The risks are within the range that we are willing to bear. In fact, I am willing too, so
It is an excellent opportunity to deal with the government first and hopefully establish an advantage. No one wants to miss it."
"Then what are you worried about?" Verak asked bluntly.
"Don't you think that if you follow your way of thinking, someone will inevitably die?" Morais said.
Verak reviewed the plan and realized that the person Morais said would inevitably be sacrificed was the one who actively exposed himself to the government's sight. In order to avoid attracting the government's attention to the hidden Equality Society, he could only
Facing everything alone, you can't get along with people on the street.
"he……"
"You find good candidates, minimize the risks, put together a feasible plan and give it to me, and I will decide whether to do it or not." Morais is responsible for the overall survival of the Equality Society, so he has to be cautious in doing things.
He affirmed Verak's idea and hoped that Verak could give him a little more confidence.
