Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Righteous Severance of Relatives
Verak turned his head and looked at Morais for a few seconds, breaking away from the despair of dying with Fletcher, and smiled weakly: "But didn't I tell you to make plans first?"
"Time waits for no one, Chris." Morais pulled up the hood of his raincoat slightly, revealing his sharp and fierce eyes, scanning the panicked Fletcher and the security personnel.
There are about thirty or forty security personnel led by Fletcher. The scale of the Equality Association's dispatch is also quite large. At least one hundred people can be seen at a glance. There is already a huge gap between the two sides in terms of quantity and firepower. If they insist on fighting,
Fletcher and the others will gain absolutely nothing.
"I heard Daniel say today that he was suddenly fired. We thought there must be something wrong with you, so we sent someone to keep an eye on it. Then we found out that the situation was not good, so we followed him all the way here." Chloe came over and explained briefly.
Check out the situation.
"You're not hurt, are you?" Boyin asked, taking off his raincoat and giving it to Verak.
"I'm fine." Verak stopped Boyin, "Put on your hoods and don't show your true colors. This little rain can't kill me."
When Morais heard what Verak said, he had to pull down his hood again, covering half of his face: "What should we do next?"
"I'll go talk to him." Verak said.
Time is running out, and the scene of their stalemate is quite large. Even if there is a heavy rain as a cover, it will not be able to hide it for long. If it drags on, sooner or later, people will be discovered, and no matter what you do, it will not end well.
Boyin waved to the crowd at the Equality Association. Daniel, wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella in his hand, rushed over and held up the umbrella for Verak. Verak also took this time to wipe his cheek with a handkerchief.
"If you have anything to talk about with them, they will already kill you...and I have a question, that person must be from your family. Is this what your father meant?" Boyin said.
"It's my father's wish. He would rather let me die than have the Thomas family be involved with the Equality Association." Verak stretched out his slender hand and pushed back his wet hair, which was so wet from the rain.
He took off his extra heavy coat and threw it on the ground, revealing his white shirt, which was not much better. "But no matter what, I can't fight with them. Now the whole thing is really beyond my control."
Boyn sighed: "This is also your family matter to a certain extent. It is indeed best not to drag down the family with our career."
"Carmine Thomas." Verak called Carmine by his first name and looked at Fletcher and the others solemnly, "He is an enemy of our Equality Society."
When Chloe, Boyne, and Morais heard this, they all looked at the serious Verak.
"Before the Equality Association develops and grows, we'd better keep a low profile and don't stir up disputes of little significance. It is with this idea in mind that I want to talk to them. Before the current situation gets out of control,
Resolve conflicts as much as possible, or delay the outbreak of conflicts." Verak decisively included Carmine and the entire Thomas family within the cannonball range of the Equality Association, "But this does not mean that it is my family matter. Mine.
My parents and my entire family are solid defenders of the old system. They are no different from the capitalists and politicians we hate, and they are also the ones we need to overthrow."
"Chris..." Several people were affected by Verak's heroic act of killing relatives.
"Ideals are above all else, and the world we strive for is above all else." Verak said, taking the umbrella from Daniel's hand, "I will go over and talk to them - don't worry about me, the Equality Council has been completed now.
I already have preliminary weapons, and if they want to attack me, they have to weigh whether I have the strength."
"Remember to tell them that if they dare to touch you, none of them will be able to leave," Morais said.
Verak held an umbrella and chuckled as he passed by Morais: "Then help me take aim at the old man at the front."
"Be careful." Boyin warned.
Verak did not look back, but waved his hand casually, and then approached Fletcher: "... damn old man, do you want to continue playing?"
"They are anti-" Fletcher looked shocked.
Verak gave Fletcher a hard kick, preventing Fletcher from saying the next few words.
Although the security personnel behind Fletcher were also members of the Thomas family, they did not know that the Thomas family was inextricably linked to the rebel organization. Fletcher told the truth in public. Once the information leaked, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Arrange a car for me." Verak knew that there was no point in talking to Fletcher. The butler was just an executor and had no decision-making power, so he decided to return to the Thomas family's mansion.
"What do you want a car for?" Fletcher asked.
"Meet Carmine," Verak replied.
The strong appearance of the Equality Society has made Fletcher realize that Verak's background is far beyond their imagination. If Verak is touched now, the rebel organization may do something extraordinary.
That group of desperadoes doesn't even dare to confront the country, let alone them.
Fletcher resisted the urge to kill Verak to vent his pleasure, opened the door of the nearest car, gritted his teeth and said: "Master Chris...please get in the car..."
Verak turned around and said to the cadres of the Equal Association: "Go back!"
The people from the Equality Association remained motionless, still watching with eager eyes.
Verak shrugged and got into the car.
Fletcher sat in the same car with him, the security personnel returned to the car, and the motorcade began to return to the Thomas family mansion.
"How many things are you hiding?" In the car, Fletcher looked at Verak with fear and asked boldly.
Verak glanced at the driver, implying that he couldn't say anything about someone he was worried about.
Fletcher took a deep breath and urged: "Drive faster!"
"Don't go so fast. The road is wet. If the speed is too fast, the car may slip and lose control." Verak ordered the driver with a contrary opinion.
Fletcher suppressed his resentment and made a concession: "Just keep the current speed!"
Seeing Fletcher being controlled by him again, Verak felt much happier. He stared at the rearview mirror, and the people of the Equality Association got farther and farther away, and finally disappeared in the rain.
Although the members of the Equality Society cannot stand by their side, the scariest thing about the Equality Society is that it is good at lurking in the shadows. Especially since the Thomas family has already experienced two true or false Equality Society invasions, the Equality Society will
Their deterrence is no less than that of the government.
Therefore, equality will not keep up and play its greatest role.
Before he even went back to have a showdown with Carmine and re-establish the relationship and set the rules, Verak knew that he had won.

"Can Chris do it alone?" Chloe was a little worried.
The rough Morais put away his gun: "Of course not, we have to bring people over to continue to help Chris put pressure on their family and help him negotiate successfully. After all, the Thomas family is also a top tycoon. Indeed, as Chris said,
It’s better not to have an early conflict and ruin our critical development period.”
"Yes, and when the Thomas family learns that our Equality Society now has armed forces, I'm afraid they will have to re-evaluate us. Now if you want to move Chris, without the support of the government, it is simply wishful thinking." Chloe thought deeply.
However.
Boyin, who had been silent before, said, "It all makes sense. Chloe, you organize everyone to evacuate safely. Morais, you lead the team to rush over to monitor the situation. If there are special circumstances, help Chris to apply pressure as soon as possible."
