Bressy, Lezein, Equality Building, Office of the President of the International Equality Alliance
"You must rest!"
The doctor who was responsible for monitoring Boyin's condition around the clock was so angry that he resorted to violence such as throwing a cup to prove that he was really angry.
During this period, he explained to Boyin the necessity of numerous breaks, the severity of his condition, and the consequences of continuing like this. However, Boyin always laughed it off, and generally maintained his previous work intensity.
.
"Yes, Chairman!"
"Just leave these tasks to us."
Other cadres in the office echoed.
Boyin, whose face was frighteningly pale, shook his head slightly and tried his best to make a slight voice: "Only this night... I can't sleep..."
Now, Morais led his troops to desperately resist the attack of the government troops in Nange City, and Joseph sent troops to surprise the city of Pro, an important hub of the government troops.
Both of them must achieve a great victory tonight, otherwise Pro City is not captured, which means that the counterattack will be frustrated, and Nanre City will be lost, which means the collapse of the southwest defense line, and the Equality Army will fall into a period darker than darkness.
How could Boyin sleep?
He thought that no matter what situation the International Equality Alliance would face after dawn, at least he could stabilize the overall situation as soon as possible.
"Even if you go to rest for a few hours first? It won't delay the battle on the front line."
'Just listen to Dr. Rawson! Everyone is worried about your physical condition!'
"Boom!"
There was lightning and thunder outside.
"Why is it raining everywhere..." Boyin ignored the advice of his comrades and thought of things other than the war. "This rain... is too heavy. You must remind all departments to prepare for disaster relief."
"Don't worry, we have already arranged this matter! This is the first test we face, and we will definitely ensure the safety of the people!" said a cadre.
"That's good..." Boyin's eyes reflected the gloomy sky with occasional lightning outside, "We can't let the people down."

"That's the arrangement, let's set off." Oscar recorded the contents and plans of his mission in his notebook, and couldn't wait to use his strength.
After an afternoon and a night of discussions, Quentin, Connie, Stuart, and Oscar decided on their respective tasks for the next nine days and established the direction of change for Peace Street in the next nine days.
Among them, Stuart is responsible for coordinating the immigrants in Peace Street, eliminating conflicts among them, and making the road to unity smooth.
Oscar is responsible for a series of publicity work to strengthen everyone's awareness of struggle and unity and promote peace street to unite.
Connie is responsible for contacting Quentin's two previously optimistic candidates for new immigrants, expanding their strength, and focusing on cultivating a few backbones.
Quentin is responsible for the overall coordination and handling of the patrol team.
"It's so late. If you go out, is there anyone else outside?" Verak smiled and said, "Let's all have a rest. We will officially start taking action tomorrow."
"Same." Oscar pinned the pen to his notebook.
"Don't be too arrogant when you go out tomorrow. You didn't do anything when you came to Heping Street. You ran around all day to encourage everyone to fight against the patrol team. This can easily make some people wary and guess that we have ulterior motives." Quentin frowned.
, always confident about the follow-up tasks, "What we have to do is to influence everyone in a subtle way, so that everyone can take the initiative to seek help and seek advanced ideas and methods of struggle."
The immigrants' life was already difficult, and the constant pressure from the patrol team made them extremely sensitive and unwilling to have anything to do with the people of the International Equality League.
Even after encountering a suspicious person, they would rather take the initiative to report it to the patrol team in order to protect themselves.
Therefore, their top priority is to make these people put down their guard against the comrades who are sincerely helping them, and let them clearly realize that the emergence of the International Equality Alliance will not bring disaster, but will lead them to the dawn.
"To put it simply, we only have nine days. We must be quick and have significant results every day, but at the same time we must be cautious to ensure our own safety." Stuart said in a way that he understood, "If
If we were too eager to accomplish something in the first place, we would 100% scare the immigrants away from us."
"Yes." Quentin agreed, "Among them, Comrade Oscar has the most difficult job. You must not only publicize it well, but also ensure that the public will not resist it. The degree of desire must be just right, which will be a great test for you.
big."
"I will complete the task well." Oscar is unwilling to say depressing words in his field of expertise.
"I don't know what's going on with Comrade Clark." Connie looked at Verak worriedly, vaguely hoping that Verak could find some way to provide them with some information about Clark.
Verak has stayed in the tavern today and has not had contact with other comrades in the sub-station. Naturally, there is no way to arrange a secret guard for Clark and no way to know his situation: "There are only two situations: there is danger, or we are advancing steadily.
"
"It must be progressing steadily!" Oscar tends to expect optimistically.
"It's good to think so, but we must also face the danger. If I say something that may scare you, at noon, it may be the last time we see Comrade Clark." Verak shrugged and wrote lightly.
.
"you……"
"We are in danger. Every action is a matter of life and death. It may be the last time we see each other in this life." Verak feels that these young comrades have too many things to learn, but this is normal. It's not anyone.
Everyone has the opportunity to be like him, experiencing what others have experienced in a lifetime and growing rapidly in one year. "You must face things like Clark and be prepared for his sacrifice."
"Understood." Quentin said immediately.
The Intelligence Department is one of the departments with the highest gay mortality rate in the International Equality Alliance. Quentin, who came out of here, has witnessed the sacrifices of too many comrades.
Every piece of information may be stained with the hot blood of comrades in the Intelligence Department.
"Understood." After speaking, Stuart pursed his lips and his eyes changed again.
"clear."
"clear."
Connie and Oscar tried to imagine that Clark had died, how they could endure the grief and carry out this mission.
After the guidance, Verak timely let everyone relax: "Of course, what I said is only a possibility that we cannot escape. The purpose of telling you is very simple, that is, I hope that you will not fall into the trap because of the sacrifice of any comrade in the future.
We cannot extricate ourselves from the sadness. When facing setbacks, we cannot sit on the ground forever and lick our wounds, let down those comrades who sacrificed their lives, and let their dead souls see our decadence and despair... Clark should be in no danger, and we will be there the day after tomorrow at the latest
We can know the result.”
"Your companion..." Connie wanted to ask something, but she didn't know how to ask without touching Verak's pain point.
"Are you talking about the companions I sacrificed?" Verak set an example and faced the problem head-on.
"Hmm... I want to know how you felt when they died."
"Many of my companions have died." Countless people flashed through Verak's mind. "Among them, there were about three times that saddened me the most. The first time was when a companion I met in prison escaped and was killed.
The government caught him, and the people in the government used all means to interrogate him.
My whereabouts, but he did not compromise until his death. I once told him in prison that what I will strive for my whole life after I am released from prison is to let all of you live a peaceful and happy life. Before he died, he asked
Someone told me to fulfill my promise to others."
Oscar was in the publicity department with Ross, and he heard Ross tell the details of the incident: "It was Mr. Dawn..."
"Yeah." Verak nodded, "The second thing is that when I went to Old Nanyue, the capital of Dunman, to perform a mission, I, Chairman Boyne, and Teacher Keating helped the people there to form a branch of the Equality Society. There.
There is a group of lively people, each with their own dreams, and they all look forward to doing other meaningful things in a free and equal world after victory. Unfortunately, due to our negligence, not long after, they were attacked by Dunman.
The government's raid wiped out the entire army..."
Quentin, who is more senior, knows this: "The Old South Treaty incident. Hundreds of comrades and innocent immigrants were sacrificed at that time, and thousands of people were imprisoned. It directly caused our revolutionary efforts in Dunman to return to the starting point.
."
Verak talked about the last item: "The third item is a close friend of mine. His name is Diaz. He is the brother of Murphy, who I often tell you about, and he knows Monlego fighting skills."
"Yeah." Connie listened carefully.
"Diaz is a better fighter than Murphy, and I even learned a few moves from him." Verak said, "We had planned to go to Monlego to liberate his hometown so that there would no longer be war in his hometown.
and oppression. But before that day came, he was surrounded by the enemy and sacrificed himself in order to cover the evacuation of other comrades during a mission. However, our commitment has not changed. When Bash's situation improves, I will work with him
Join Diaz's brother Murphy and go to Monlego."
"I'll go with you then!" Connie said.
"Okay, if conditions permit." Verak is looking forward to that day. He believes in himself that Murphy will not let Diaz down. "I almost went off topic. What you want to ask is how I come out of sadness.
Right? The three things I just mentioned all give me different feelings. First
The first thing made me feel more ashamed, the second thing made me blame myself, and the third thing made me feel powerless. The blows and trauma they brought to me kept accumulating, accumulating, and finally one day I couldn't hold it anymore.
Lock yourself in a room, have no intention of doing anything, and sleep in a daze all day long."
There was one thing hidden deep in Verak's heart that continuously gave him strength. He decided to share this strength with a few people so that they could continue to move forward courageously when facing setbacks in the future.
"Teacher Keating couldn't stand it anymore, so he found me and enlightened me a lot... But I have to be honest, those contents had little impact on me. After all, so many comrades sacrificed themselves. How could a few words change my state so easily?
?What really made me figure it out was that I visited Dawn's wife and daughter.
He died for me. I wanted to visit his family and do something for them to relieve the guilt in my heart. There, I saw Dawn's sleeping daughter. I looked at that very young and inexperienced daughter.
As a child of the world, I instantly understood something. That is the person we are trying our best to protect."
Every time Verak recalled that scene, there would be a warm current in his heart, dispelling his fatigue and healing his scars.
"Perhaps, the trauma suffered by our generation is so severe that it is difficult to heal, and it will be difficult for us to have the opportunity to enjoy our lives in the future. But the next generation, their children, and their descendants will still have the opportunity.
We may not be able to see it, but they must be able to live in a more splendid world since childhood, grow up carefree, without struggle, use their limited life on more meaningful things, and create their own, and even the world of all mankind.
value."
Verak thought that his words were too difficult for these comrades in their early twenties to understand, because they themselves could still be regarded as children. But the fact was exactly the opposite, and several people headed by Stuart burst into tears.
"This is great." Stuart was moved by Verak's last words. "The reason why I betrayed my class and joined the revolution was because one time I was cleaning shoes outside and accidentally discovered that the shoe brusher was doing mathematics.
He has outstanding talents in this area. In the few minutes he was brushing my shoes, I thought about how our lives would change if we exchanged identities.
What kind of change has happened in my life. If he gets the support of my parents, he will definitely shine in the world of mathematics. And what about me? If I don’t have the support of my family, who am I? At that moment I realized that this shouldn’t be the case.
We should unite together to make mankind greater. Instead of being enslaved by these low-level desires and leaving a large number of people in misery forever."

"After thinking about these things, I think we can face the danger while also facing the sacrifice of our companions." Verak saw a trace of Chris in Stuart. Maybe the former Chris was there.
Discovering the mistakes of the world through such occasional opportunities, "opening up a new world and building the new world better and better is the best consolation for the sacrificed comrades."
"Dongdongdong."
"Please come in." The person knocking on the cubicle door could only be Comrade Victor disguised as a bartender, and Verak did not hesitate.
"Comrade Verac." After nodding to everyone, Victor whispered to Verac the intelligence received by the sub-station.
After learning that Morais and the others had been holding on for more than four hours in the heavy rain in Nanre City, Joseph also sized up the situation and decisively launched an attack on Pro City. Verak opened his mouth slightly and took a long time to digest it before he came back to his senses.
.
"You all go to rest first."
"What about you?"
"I'll just stay in the cubicle tonight." Verak made the same choice as Boyne.
