  Chapter 40 Arm yourself

  Daniel stepped back and went outside to watch out to avoid emergencies.

   "Everyone, good evening." Verak went straight to the temporary long table, rushed to greet the six people with solemn expressions under the light.

   "Chris." A man stepped forward and hugged Verac.

  Verak hugged him: "Boin, long time no see."

  Byne, who was hugging him, was the only one among the remaining six who had been classmates with Chris and Francis. He knew Chris very well, and he was the person Verak was most worried about being recognized during this trip.

   "It's good to be alive." Boyin said with a sob.

  Verak forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart: "Even if I die, you will still be there, and there will still be an unfair system, so everything will continue as usual."

   "What nonsense, we can't lose you." Boyin said seriously.

   "I understand." Verak smiled, and in order to avoid dealing with Boyindo, he quickly introduced the topic, "I don't have much time, let's start the meeting quickly."

   "Everyone sit down." Chloe called everyone to sit around the long table.

Verak sat down, took a deep breath, looked around the serious six people, and actively promoted the meeting process: "Today we have two issues to discuss. The first is the naming of the organization. The second is the follow-up of the organization. The plan for development. Let me talk about your views on the naming of the organization first."

   "I have two naming proposals." Marcus, who is in charge of publicizing related matters in the organization, said, "The Workers' Union or the Workers' Rights Protection Association."

"It's not possible." As soon as Marcus finished speaking, Usov, a man with a Mediterranean haircut sitting opposite him, vetoed him, "We not only want to lead the workers to eliminate inequality, but also thousands of people at the bottom. are being discriminated against and oppressed.”

   "Workers make up the majority of the people at the bottom, and most of the current members of our organization are also from the background of workers." Marcus explained.

Chloe then raised her opinion: "I think the Workers' Union is good. As Comrade Marcus said, the people at the bottom are the most workers. The goal of our organization from the very beginning is to fight for more of the workers they deserve. Equity, so the name fits."

   "And everyone knows what organization we are." Seeing that someone agreed, Marcus continued.

   Others also expressed their opinions. Boyne, who was sitting next to Veraker, turned sideways and asked, "What do you think?"

   "I want to hear from you first." Verak didn't rush to express his opinion.

"I think the name of the Workers' Union is not good. We need to gather all the forces that can be gathered, so the positioning should be broader." Boyne said first, "As for what Marcus said, others will know it as soon as they hear it. What kind of organization, in my opinion, this name is more like a government-administered association, we need a clearer name, so that people with the same needs can understand at a glance."

   "So what do you think?"

   "Equality Council." Boyne said, "very simple and clear."

  Verak smiled in surprise: "I think so too."

  Verak didn't expect that Chris' former classmate and friend thought the same way. He did think about the name before attending the meeting, and thought that since everyone wanted equality, it would be better to just call it the Equality Association.

   "That would be much simpler." Boin motioned for everyone to be quiet, cleared his throat, and told everyone about his low-key conversation with Veraker.

When looking at the records of Chris's previous meetings, Verac found that Chris and Boyne had a high degree of agreement, and generally strongly supported Boyne's proposals in meetings, so he chose to follow Chris's habit: "I agree with Comrade Boyne. proposal."

   "This is also good." Chloe also said.

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

  Because the proposal itself is good, and with the support of ‘Chris’, the naming of the organization will soon be over. From today, they have an official title: Equality Society.

  The efficiency of the meeting was a bit beyond Veraker's expectations. He hoped that the follow-up would be the same, and the contact with these people should be ended as soon as possible, so as to avoid omissions after a long time.

  After the name of the organization was determined, the core members began to redefine everyone's duties due to the previous heavy losses.

  Verak pretended to be Chris as the chairman of the Equality Association, and the rest of the people also clarified their respective areas and affairs. Among them, Chloe is responsible for recruiting new members of Laizein, and Boin is responsible for organizing related activities in Laizein.

   "I heard from Comrade Chloe, do you want to change the direction of our current development?" A cadre asked.

"Yes." Verac still remembers how he said to Chloe, he said, "A lot of things happened in Lazer this year, and we lost hundreds of members including Francis. I hope everyone understands our Our original intention is to lead everyone to seek equality, not to let everyone die. All oppressed are our allies, and we all face the ultimate enemy. Therefore, we cannot confront the Bresi government head-on now. The top priority is It is necessary to gather the power of the whole country and the whole world."

  Hearing this, the stubborn Morais snorted: "In the struggle, bloodshed and sacrifice are inevitable!"

  Verak was taken aback for a moment: "...Of course."

"Comrade Chris, I agree with what you said before that 'the beliefs we uphold will allow us to win the final victory', but through this government suppression incident, did everyone not have any reflections? I just feel that I will become more cautious in the future It’s all right?” Morais talked about his opinion with a little excitement, “That’s a temporary solution, not a root cause! Can we always hide in the shadows? Rely on the justice hidden in the shadows to defeat the government and plutocrats in the open ?”

  Morais' words made everyone stunned.

  Villac recalled Morais' information and expressed his understanding of his reaction. Of the six, five were intellectuals, and only Morais had been a soldier.

  After being baptized on the battlefield, Morais certainly would not choose to confront the government in a gentle and gentle way. Even in his opinion, even the radical Francis is just a weak scholar who can only hold a pen to criticize and denounce, and he cannot really make the government afraid.

"Everyone here, haven't you noticed something from the past history?" Morais was emotional, "Why should the government and the plutocrats compromise with us at the expense of huge interests? We must recognize that these politicians and businessmen are only The essence of bullying the weak and fearing the strong! Speaking out for the people can’t make them feel fear! Only when we are armed and have the strength to hurt them at least, will they face us squarely and seriously consider the opinions we have been putting forward!”
