MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 4 Lazerin (on)
Chapter 4 Lazerin (Part 1)
Every page of the brochure is full of dense information. Some people with little connection have only half a page of information, and some with large connection have as many as three or four pages.
Of course, the most important thing among them, which occupies a full third of the booklet, is the information about Chris that Verac wants to fake.
From Chris’s basic family background, personality, hobbies, social circle, to the experience of studying economics at the Imperial University Business School, the content of the work summary report some time ago, and some childhood embarrassments that are often brought up by relatives and friends , are clearly marked in detail.
"Hoo..."
A drop of sweat fell on the booklet, and Verak, who was restraining his excitement, realized that his forehead was covered with beads of sweat mixed with excitement and fear.
The wheel of history is rolling again, this time he must change his life, cross classes, and become a rich man.
Fletcher kept observing Veraker, paying attention to the expressions on his face that were stirred by various thoughts.
Verak felt Fletcher's gaze, raised his head and looked at him for a moment, then immediately lowered his head to look at the booklet.
He is not so worried that there will be some omissions in his performance, so that he will be suspected.
When others have no motivation to question themselves, there will be 10,000 friendly interpretations in the eyes of others for any reaction they make—this sentence was told to him by Fletcher in the previous life.
Villac didn't control his performance too much, and concentrated on flipping through the booklet.
He has dealt with most of the people in this booklet in his previous life, and face-to-face communication is easier to impress than written words, so he still remembers them very clearly.
But now he reads the brochure seriously, not just to put on a show in front of Fletcher, and not just to deepen his memory again, but to find details in Chris's social circle that he hadn't noticed in his previous life.
As a core member of the rebel organization that is particularly active in Laizein, and an indispensable and huge help to provide a large amount of financial support for the organization. In Chris's social circle, there must be a "hub" that is the same on the surface, but secretly responsible for transmitting information and connecting Chris with the rebel organization.
Verak remembered that he participated in many activities in his previous life, and there were people who deliberately contacted him in an attempt to convey information. At that time, he only felt panic, worrying that he was an acquaintance of Chris, so the response he made was to leave in a hurry before the help, or let Fletcher go forward to block it.
It wasn't until he knew the real cause of Chris' death before he was designed to die tragically that the two were connected by him and important information was obtained.
The mysterious person I tried to contact with myself many times in the previous life is very likely to be a member of the rebel organization, and if this is true, it will extend an even more amazing intelligence: the rebel organization does not know that Verak is a fake Chris.
The new government of the Republic of Bresci has just been formed, and it is a period of extreme sensitivity and will spare no effort to suppress any forces that may threaten its rule.
Although Verak has been inextricably linked to the rebel organization since he pretended to be Chris, he believes that he is not yet capable of dealing with these multiple parties, so he is not in a hurry to get in touch with this hot potato.
This clue was regarded by him as a life-saving straw at a critical moment. If he failed in the game with the Thomas family, then with the line of rebel organizations, he would not be desperate.
It was in consideration of this point that Veraker had a certain degree of confidence and confidence to choose a path that was the same as but completely different from his previous life. And chose to bring two friends, Nord and Dempsey, to help him gain a firm foothold as soon as possible in the undercurrent of Laizein.
On the way to Zward Railway Station, Veraker flipped through the contents of the brochure while planning the development after arriving in Lezein.
If he fails again in Laizein, his situation will be 10,000 times worse than his life in the slums.
So he must protect himself in these two months, and use the Thomas family to grab huge benefits and change his life.
An hour later, they arrived at the train station in Zward City. The nearest train to Laizein will depart at 0:30 in the morning. Fletcher directly booked the entire carriage, and a group of people entered the carriage and waited for the departure.
"Remember how?" Fletcher took off his top hat, took off his thick black coat, and asked while sitting opposite Veraker.
"It's okay." Verak replied ambiguously.
Fletcher was not satisfied with the answer, so he leaned over and took the booklet from Veraker, opened a page at random and asked, "Let me tell you about Chris's basic information first."
The basic information is the first thing to memorize. Although Verac doesn’t want to be too conspicuous to be able to memorize everything, he doesn’t have to pretend that he doesn’t even know the basic information: “Chris is twenty-four years old this year. Two years younger than me. He is 184 centimeters tall, three centimeters taller than me. He is well-proportioned and weighs about the same as me. He does not smoke, is left-handed, slightly short-sighted but does not like wearing glasses, likes watches, and has a lot of research on watches...a man Gentle and unassuming, he hardly gets angry, so in some people's eyes he's even a bit of a bully—"
"Okay." Fletcher reached out his hand to make Verac stop, "What's Chris' favorite wine?"
"Jurassic wine."
"Allergic to what?"
"Allergic to lemons."
“What do you usually do on Tuesday?”
"Tuesday morning... I can't remember, I will go to a classical music concert in the evening."
"Does he like riding horses?"
"He was injured by a horse when he was a child, so he doesn't like riding a horse. His sister is proficient in equestrianism and often goes to the horse farm."
After some inquiries, although Verac pretended not to remember a few places, Fletcher was still very satisfied with the progress: "It's not bad, you have to try to remember as much as possible on the next road." However, we will not put you in danger. When the time comes to the banquet, there will be people we have arranged to talk to you about the content that has been prepared in advance. You just need to say what you have written down in your mind. Just come out."
"Understood." Verac nodded, turned his head and looked at Nord and Dempsey who were sitting at the next table, who were already dazed due to fatigue and drunkenness.
Fletcher followed his gaze: "I will take care of the two of them, so you don't have to worry."
"Can I keep them with me?" Verak tentatively asked.
Fletcher looked at Veraker with meaningful eyes. After a few seconds of silence, he replied: "Of course, but not now. We must first resolve the huge scandal crisis of the Thomas family, and then talk about it later."
"Okay." Verak had nothing to do about it.
"Although you and Chris look almost exactly the same, you still need to dress up." Fletcher beckoned, and several people who had already been waiting in the carriage came over. The costumer began to choose suitable clothes for Verac, and the barber prepared Give Verakh a hairstyle exactly like Chris's.
Half an hour later, the brand-new Verac put on the shiny leather shoes padded with a three-centimeter booster pad, and stood in front of Fletcher for inspection.
Seeing that Verac had changed into a straight dress, and his messy hair was managed to be as decent as Chris, Fletcher showed a satisfied smile: "If you just stand here and do nothing and say nothing, it's very easy. It's hard for anyone to recognize that you're not Chris."
Nolde and Dempsey, who were sitting on the sidelines and still struggling to sleep, looked at Veraker who seemed to be a different person, and they were all amazed and speechless.
"What is there to do next?" Verak asked.
"Chris is left-handed, you have to get used to using your left hand next-"
"I'm left-handed too." Willak said.
"That's naturally better." Fletcher smiled even wider, "In addition, you seem to have a restrained and calm personality, which is somewhat similar to Chris. It's good to keep this."
"Di—" the train whistled, and then slowly moved forward, gradually increasing its speed.
Verak and Fletcher, who were talking, looked out the window together. Zward Railway Station was quickly left behind, and the train headed towards Leizein in the middle of the night.
