"What's the matter?" Editor-in-Chief Byron asked a little impatiently.
For the first time, he felt that Capa had so many things going on.
In his impression, this person's existence was so low in the past that even when he met him, it would take him several seconds to barely recall his name.
"I still... still want my family to leave Lezein." Capa said.
"Didn't I tell you about this? Lezein is actually the safest place. Their safety level is no less than ours. If the International Equality Alliance can touch them, it is equivalent to having the ability to touch us. So what do you think?
Why don't they come to us directly, but to your wife and your children?" Editor-in-chief Byron repeated what he said yesterday.
"Actually, it's not because of safety issues. I'm very relieved about this. And I'm an ordinary reporter. No matter how hard it is, people from the International Equality Alliance will not target my family. I...it's because, because..." Capa
She looked so coquettish that she couldn't say the second half of her words.
"Say it, grind it off." Editor-in-Chief Byron urged.
"It's a long story..." Capa looked around, moved his steps, and sat in front of the editor-in-chief Byron, "I have been to Orlando before... four or five years ago."
"Hmm...then what?" Editor-in-Chief Byron did not hide his perfunctory tone.
"Then I met a beautiful girl there, and we hit it off, so, just..."
"What's going on?" Editor-in-Chief Byron became interested.
Capa showed an awkward smile: "We are together."
"Wait a minute, you married your wife four or five years ago, right? Do you have children?"
"...Yes, so, so..."
"This is your lover." The editor-in-chief Byron slapped his thigh and confirmed the sex.
"Uh... well... mainly, mainly, it's her. She doesn't know that I'm married. She always thought that I was working alone in Lezein."
Editor-in-Chief Byron leaned back: "I didn't see it, you are still hiding something like this."
Capa understood the true meaning of these words: I didn't realize you were this kind of person.
"Then your insistence on wanting your wife and children to leave Lezein has anything to do with this?"
"Yes, it's because I am her lover and she wants to come to Lezein to stay with me. I have tried to persuade her many times, but she just wants to come. You said she is coming now and bumps into my wife. What should I do?
Then isn’t it all over for me..." Capa spread his hands and said with a grimace.
"So you want to use the reason that Lazein is unsafe to take away your wife and children, and then ask your lover to come to Lazein to live with you."
"Yes, that's all we can do now."
"Then this is not a long-term solution." The editor-in-chief Byron's eyes were inexplicably more appreciative, "Let me share my experience. This kind of thing can be done randomly, but it is best to use a fake identity, so that in the end
If no one can find you, you will always be safe. How can you be so stupid as to tell others all about your situation? It would be strange if they don't take the initiative to find you."
Capa nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense. If you understand this earlier, it won't be so troublesome. The problem is that now I can only delay it like this, and I will find a reason to let her go back after a while."
"I understand you, but because of your personal emotional problems, it may be a little troublesome to make such an adjustment... Think about it, if you can use this reason to arrange for your family to leave today, will others be able to use it tomorrow?
For one reason or another, take out all the family members
Go? If I don’t agree, do I have to say that I’m partial behind my back?” Editor-in-chief Byron was very embarrassed, “I’m not doubting you, I’m just making an analogy. If there are so many people out like this, some people lose their worries and turn around.
If you join the International Equality Alliance, who will bear the responsibility?"
"Yes, what you said makes sense, but if I weren't about to be forced into a situation where my family is ruined, I definitely wouldn't bother you. Do you think this will work? Let's do this in secret. No one else knows about my family.
Specific circumstances. In addition, I can guarantee with my life that I will never
I don’t have any other ideas. If you are worried, you will withhold my next salary. When will my wife and children come back, when will you pay me half, and the rest will be considered as hard work for your help." Capa said.
He had a sincere face and bribed Byron with half of his salary.
"This is so easy! Can I ask for your money? Although this matter is indeed difficult to handle, you have been working in the newspaper for so long and you are considered one of my people. I will approve this article!" Editor-in-chief Byron waved his hand.
I found the batch slip and wrote on it.
Capa knew that the first part of Byron's words was just to be polite, otherwise he would not have emphasized the difficulty of this matter later, so he immediately insisted: "You must keep this money. If you don't, I will be embarrassed to ask you for help in the future.
"
"You're just too outsider, okay, then I'll keep it." The editor-in-chief Byron was afraid that if he refused one more round, Kappa would really stop giving him money, so he readily agreed, "You
When do you plan to let them leave?"
"The faster, the better, so as not to crash into it." Capa's heart was beating wildly, his eyes staring straight at the note.
"Then let's do it today." Editor-in-chief Byron quickly finished writing and handed the note to Capa, "Remember, you can't tell anyone else about this in the newspaper office, and when your lover comes, talk to him.
Let me tell you, we still have to arrange for soldiers to provide protection."
"Understood, don't show any weakness to the International Equality Alliance!" Capa readily agreed, and took advantage of the opportunity to inquire about the situation in the prison. "By the way, editor-in-chief, the prison matter is still not okay? I really think this is an excellent angle.
, if a few reports like this can be published, it will definitely arouse a greater response."
"This matter is quite complicated. Don't think about it for now. If there is any result, I will arrange for you to go there. Okay, hurry up and handle your private matters."
After leaving the newspaper office, Capa staggered and almost fell.
He had been holding on for the whole process just now. If he hadn't known very well that his whole family's lives might be in danger if he made any mistakes in the disguise, he would have been unable to hold himself back and reveal his secrets.
"Are you okay?" Two soldiers came to help him.
"It's okay, thank you." Capa, who turned pale, shook his head.
"Where are you going? We are following you."
"I want to go home."
Under the escort of soldiers, Capa returned home, where his wife Clementine was waiting with their daughter Dorothy and son Matt.
When she saw Capa's unbearable expression, she immediately understood that their plan had been successful.
"Let's all go back to the room and play." Clementine dismissed the two children.
"Successful!" Capa whispered excitedly after watching the children return to the room and close the door.
"Isn't your editor-in-chief suspicious?" Things went too smoothly, and Clementine was a little worried.
Capa handed the approval slip into Clementine's hand: "No, he even suddenly felt that I had a similar affinity with him, and he became much more enthusiastic about me."
"Then we-"
"You guys pack your things now and I'll take you out of the city."
Although this was all discussed last night, at this moment, Clementine still felt it was too sudden: "You..."
"Don't worry about me. On the contrary, if you leave Lezein, the road to Lelist City will definitely be difficult, not to mention you have children with you." Capa felt very guilty. It was he who broke the peace with his own hands. "
However, I still hope that you can arrive in Lelist City as soon as possible, hand over the evidence I photographed to the International Equality Alliance, and ask them to send a comrade disguised as my lover as soon as possible to help me continue the investigation and evidence collection."
"If the evidence is published in the newspaper, will it be directly discovered that you took the photo?" Clementine confirmed.
"Don't worry about this. I took this aspect into consideration when I took the photo. I deliberately found some tricky angles so that it would look like it was taken by a passerby." Capa held Clementine's hand and gave her some advice.
Only a little sense of security.
"The exposed evidence is all photos with you present. The newspaper will still doubt you, or..."
None of this had occurred to Clementine last night.
When she was about to leave, all of them popped into her head uncontrollably, as if they were deliberately trying to prevent her from leaving and wanted her to regret supporting Capa.
"Don't worry, I will be careful. When people from the International Equality Alliance come and cover each other with me, it will only be safer." Capa smiled and reassured his wife.
"Can't we really stop? Let's just pretend that nothing happened." Clementine's eyes were filled with tears.
A very strong intuition told her that if she left this time, she would lose her husband forever.
But she didn't dare tell Capa her unfounded feelings.
"I will live on and create a world for my children that they like. I think this is the best gift I can give them as a father." Capa's belief has not wavered.
After a while, Clementine's mood relaxed a lot, and the two of them packed their luggage together.
"Dorothy, Matt, come out."
"Mom, where are we going?" The cute and cute Dorothy raised her head and asked in a sweet voice.
"We are going to a fun place." Clementine touched Dorothy's head and forced a smile.
"Daddy, are you going?" Dorothy looked at Capa.
Capa squatted down, kissed the foreheads of the two children, and looked at his two children with soft eyes. They were still young and did not understand what they were facing: "Dad won't go there for the time being, but he will bring candy soon.
Dolls and toys come to you."
——
Standing in front of the train station, watching his wife and children board the train, which would first go to Kip City and then secretly go to Lelist City, Capa felt an endless sense of loneliness in his heart, but he did not reveal it at this last moment.
He came out and waved to the train that was slowly leaving.
It wasn't until his arm was sore that he could no longer move. Then he reluctantly moved his eyes away from the end of the railway where the train had long disappeared, turned around, and headed straight for the newspaper office under the guard of soldiers.
Next, he will be on government territory, fighting with the International Equality Alliance.
But before that, he still needs to stand alone for a while.
The length of this period of time depends on when his wife Clementine arrives in Lelist City to hand over the evidence to the International Equality Alliance and seek support.
"You can't bear to part with them?" the soldier asked, seeing that Capa was in a sluggish state.
"A little bit."
"The children are still so young, and you are willing to send them away. Is it possible that you have no confidence in Laizein and feel that we can't protect you?" the soldier joked.
Capa's heart tightened, and he no longer showed his true emotions casually: "No, this matter is a bit complicated. I will explain it to you when I have the opportunity in the future."
——
Lezein, Martyrs Cemetery
"No one is allowed near here! Please keep your distance!"
"No one is allowed near here! Please keep your distance!"
The cemetery where Boyne, Morais, Nord, Diaz and others are buried is surrounded by government legions.
"Company commander, we have been waiting here for a week. What are we waiting for?" An adjutant paced back and forth in front of the main entrance of the cemetery.
Captain Akers, who is responsible for the care of the Martyrs Cemetery, put his hands in the pockets of his coat, squinted his eyes and said: "The higher ups suspect fraud, so we are not in a hurry to move here."
The adjutant walked to Captain Akers and stopped: "Is there a scam? How can a cemetery be scammed? A corpse scam? Haha..."
"Don't you think it's reasonable for them to not do any protection for such an important place for the International Equality Alliance?" Captain Akers was not amused by the adjutant's poor joke.
"It's a bit weird." The adjutant trembled as he handed Captain Ackles a cigarette, and then took one himself.
"Until we find out the true purpose of the International Equality Alliance's actions, we can only stand here."
"If it weren't winter, I would be happy to stand here like this." The adjutant took a deep breath of cigarette, turned to look at the cemetery, and continued to joke boldly, "It's so cold, it's better to burn this place down."
Captain Akers was unmoved and said coldly: "I think you're going crazy from the cold."
"Who said this place is so boring?"
"Are you bored? If the International Equality Alliance really has laid some trap here, then someone should be secretly watching our every move right now." Captain Akers lighted the cigarette slowly.
The adjutant was wary when he heard this, and then laughed nonchalantly: "We have searched the area closely, there won't be anyone here."
Captain Akers said: "This is impossible to say. The search team has been searching for many days, and there is still nothing to gain. Are there rumors that people from the International Equality Alliance disappeared out of thin air?"
"That's because they don't have the ability. If it were us, we would definitely catch a lot of them." The adjutant said confidently.
"Maybe." Captain Akers smiled.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a gunshot sounded, and their years of combat experience made the two quickly hide behind the nearest bunker.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"People from the International Equality Alliance are here! Be careful, everyone! Be careful, everyone!" The soldiers yelled in panic and started shooting randomly toward the front.
"Idiot! If the International Equality Alliance comes to attack, will there be only sporadic gunshots?! There can be no more than two enemies at most. Let me capture them alive!" After judging by the sound of gunshots that the enemy is most likely not a member of the International Equality Alliance,
The adjutant, who was about to scream with joy, walked out of the bunker with a gloomy face.
