MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 492 War of Public Opinion (13)

  Chapter 492 Public Opinion War (13)

  November 26th, at 3 o'clock in the morning

Because the door lock was broken, there was a certain crisis of trust with the patrol team and Capa. After the editor-in-chief Byron confirmed that the important documents in the chair were still there, he asked everyone else to avoid it first, and secretly took out the documents, put them in the briefcase and left. newspaper.

   Capa, who witnessed this scene, couldn't help but feel grateful that he made the right choice.

If he hadn't forced the officer to break the door, he would have never had the opportunity to quietly photograph the heavy evidence. When Byron came to bring all the confidential documents home, he would never have the chance to see those things again. .

   After all, he had absolutely no legitimate reason to go to Byron’s house, let alone a suitable opportunity to search for evidence of document shooting at Byron’s house.

   "Are you still working overtime?"

  The officer arranged for a group of soldiers to **** Byron away, and came back to look at Capadao.

  After such a big incident, it is a bit unreasonable for him to stay here with peace of mind. Capa simply packed up his things, and deliberately asked first: "Is it safe here, or is my house safe?"

   "It's all safe. You can see from today's results. We didn't lose any soldiers." The officer said.

   "Then I'll go home."

  November 26, early morning

  Leliste City, a work site of the International Equality League

   Clementine handed over the application for joining the International League of Equality, which had been written overnight, to the comrades inside.

   "You wrote it so quickly?" Comrade was surprised by Clementine's speed.

   "I have decided to work in the International Equality Alliance. Of course, I want to write this up as soon as possible, pass the review earlier, and enter the International Equality Alliance earlier." Clementine said.

   "Don't worry, a dedicated comrade will contact you within three days to arrange follow-up review matters. You just need to wait for the news at your residence." The comrade solemnly collected the application.

   "Okay." Clementine walked out of the work site, looking around in a little confusion.

   How to get in touch with Piaf securely?

   She still has no clue.

  Standing for a while, Clementine decided to send Dorothy and Matt to school first. This would not only allow the two children to do business, but also free up more private time for themselves to deal with problems.

  Busy until the afternoon, the enrollment procedures for the one big and one small children were all completed.

  The school controlled by the International Equality Alliance provided free teaching, accommodation, three meals a day, as well as additional nutritional supplements, regular medical examinations and other benefits. After a brief understanding, Clementine couldn't help but think of what her husband Capa had said to her before.

  Kappa believes that the new world opened up by the International Equality League is a more suitable place for children to survive and bloom their own unique brilliance.

  Now she is gradually agreeing and believing.

  After the formalities are completed, what really takes time is doing psychological work on the two children.

  When they first arrived, they had to live in a strange school, so they naturally felt conflicted.

But Clementine had no choice. Keeping them by her side would require too much energy, and there might be many dangers in the future. Keeping the two children by her side would probably bring danger to her. give them.

  November 27, morning

   After being coaxed by Clementine, the two children finally accepted the arrangement and were sent to the nearest school.

  Watching the two of them being led into the school by the teacher, Clementine could not give up, and went straight to the office building of the Propaganda Department of the International Equality League.

  Time is passing by bit by bit, and she still can't think of any good way to contact Piaf.

   If this continues, Capa's life will be safe, and the outcome of this public opinion war will become extremely uncontrollable.

   Standing under the building again, Clementine made a decision in her mind, if she couldn't get in touch with Piaf safely within two days, she had to take a risk to meet him by force.

The reason for setting it as two days is very simple. After two days, the International Equality League will review and train her after reading her application. It will be difficult for her to find time to come back. Once the time is extended to a week, it may be Even if she saw Piaf, it would not help the matter.

   same day

  Lizein, Laizein Wartime Action Team General Liaison Office

  "The combat team's attraction plan has been successfully implemented, and the interim government has not taken any further action on the martyrs' cemetery. It seems that we have indeed been restrained again." Cyril, the leader of the combat team, said.

"The intelligence team is not going well. A team of comrades sent to the newspaper office early yesterday morning to inquire about the situation was ambushed and wiped out by the entire army. As of today, two hidden comrades were beaten and captured by the search team of the provisional government." The intelligence team Team leader Cyril followed closely behind.

Hearing the good news and the bad news, there was no obvious fluctuation on Veraker's face. He said in a deep voice: "Let's put aside the spying on the newspaper first. From the current point of view, it is even more impossible for the interim government to give us a second chance." Opportunity to break in. Since the combat team has done a good job, they can maintain a certain frequency and plan more, and continue to attract the attention of the interim government, so that they can ignore the role of the martyrs' cemetery as much as possible."

"clear."

"clear."

"What we need to discuss most today is that the provisional government arrests people every day, designates them as comrades of the International Equality League, and then publicly executes them." Verak looked at several people, "Now there are several people every day. Ten innocent people were executed, and unfortunately a few of our comrades were caught by the provisional government in this way. The most troublesome thing is that the reward made the people panic, and everyone was afraid that there would be an international equality around them. The members of the alliance committed the crime of covering up unknowingly, so they did not hesitate to tear their faces and report each other in order to protect themselves..."

Shirley pointed to the key point: "This is a false image fabricated by the provisional government. If we can expose it in public and let the people realize that their relatives and friends are not members of the International Equality League, but just miserable people who are shamed by the provisional government, then If the interim government can’t go on, the people’s anger and determination to fight will also be at an all-time high.”

  Cyril thinks deeply: "Then how can we expose it? Spread the news directly in the city, saying that our people are all safe, and those who are arrested are innocent people?"

   "I don't know." Shirley hasn't come up with a specific implementation idea yet.

   "Comrades who received two batches of cameras, how is the evidence collection going?" Verak asked.

   "During this period, the behavior of the provisional government has been restrained a lot. It is difficult for us to find suitable evidence, but we have finally collected a batch. At present, I have arranged for people to integrate and transport them to the city of Leicester." Shirley said.

"The next evidence collection will be divided into two directions. Keep the original one unchanged, and grasp the evidence that the interim government falsified in arresting people. Cooperate with us in clarifying the oppression of the people, and try to reverse public opinion. They put an end to this absurd act," Veraker arranged.

"Yes."

  Villac lit a cigarette again: "At present, what we can do is very limited. We have to try to abandon the idea of ​​relying on ourselves to solve the problem, and open up the situation by cooperating with the corresponding departments of the terminal."

  November 28, evening

  Squatting near the office building of the Propaganda Department for several nights, Clementine roughly figured out Piaf's off-duty time.

  Under normal circumstances, she would leave the office building by car around eleven o'clock at night.

  Where to go after leaving is unknown.

   "Hoo... hiss..." It was extremely cold tonight, Clementine was wrapped in a thick coat, and she still felt that her body was about to freeze.

Tomorrow afternoon, her two-day time limit will expire. That is to say, if she can't think of a way today and there is no turning point, she will have to forcefully contact Piaf tomorrow night, risking being noticed by spies , and reported the situation of Laizein to her.

  That was the last thing she, Capa, and those loyal comrades in the International Equality League wanted to see, but under the pressure of time, Clementine had no choice.

   She is just an ordinary person after all.

  It is very rare to be able to get to where she is today. If she wants to find a way to complete the important tasks in every aspect, basically she can only rely on miracles.

Unknowingly, eleven o'clock came, and not long after, several figures appeared in front of the main entrance of the office building. Piaf, wearing a hat, walked out under the guard of the Equality Army soldiers as usual, and went straight to the parking lot at a distance. She was less than twenty meters away from the car.

   Clementine, with red ears and breathing cold air, stood at the intersection, staring at Piaf intently.

  If I watch Piaf leave in a car like this today, then I really have no way to go.

   "Piave..." Clementine softly called Piaf's name.

  Finally, Piaf still walked up to the car, but she didn't rush into the car, but seemed to feel someone staring at her, and looked around.

   Is she going to see me?

  If she sees me, will she come over and ask me about my situation?

   Clementine thought to herself.

  Suddenly, she saw a gun slowly protruding from the window of the building directly opposite the office building.

  Because the floor was quite high, Piaf and the soldiers of the Equality Army who were directly below didn't notice it immediately. Instead, Clementine, who was standing at the intersection, easily noticed the strangeness by taking advantage of the angle.

   Is someone going to assassinate Piaf?

  Extreme possibility!

  The back of Clementine's neck felt cold, and she hurriedly shouted in the empty and lonely street: "Hurry up and hide! Someone is going to assassinate you!"

Just two seconds after the sound came out, there was a sound of "bang!", and the roof of the car in front of Piaf was rubbed with sparks by bullets. Some soldiers of the Equality Army quickly formed human shields and escorted Piaf back to the office building. , Some raised their heads to determine the approximate location of the assassination, and began to suppress firepower.

   "Bang bang bang!"

   "Bang bang bang!"

   "Bang bang bang!"

   Someone really wants to assassinate Piaf!

   Clementine didn't know if the shout she had just saved saved Piaf's life. In short, Piaf's life was not in danger, which is the most important thing.

  She started to run forward.

   But before she passed, nearly a hundred soldiers of the Equality Army poured out from both sides of the originally peaceful street, and surrounded her.

   "Don't move!"

   "Hand over your weapons! Hand over your weapons!"

   "Hands up! Obey orders! Otherwise we have the right to kill on the spot!"

"I, I'm not!" Clementine didn't know how this group of Equality Army soldiers appeared again, so she could only raise her hands and shake her head in defense, "I just found out that someone was going to assassinate Comrade Piaf! I am not the one to assassinate!"

   "Catch it!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

  The Equal Army soldiers didn't listen to Clementine's explanation, and simply escorted her into the office building.

  To Clementine's deep surprise, Piaf had just been assassinated, but most of the comrades in the office building looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

   "Comrade Piaf! People have brought it! The rest are still being arrested!" The soldiers saluted Piaf after escorting Clementine to the office.

   "You—" Clementine raised her head with difficulty, exclaiming in disbelief.

  Piaf in front of her eyes was sitting peacefully on the sofa, but beside her stood a slender man wearing a hat and the same clothes as her!

   At this moment, Clementine understood.

   It was not Piaf who was assassinated outside, but her substitute!

   This also means that everyone was aware of the assassination, and they most likely did it deliberately to lure the other party to take action, and their own shout disrupted their plan!

   "This is her identity certificate." A soldier found Clementine's identity certificate and handed it to Piaf.

   "I've seen her. She has been wandering around for the past few days, saying that she wants to join the Propaganda Department of the International Equality League." Another patrol soldier who had dealt with Clementine added information.

   Piaf looked at her ID card and looked at Clementine: "She was the one who warned you of the danger before the assassination by the spies of the provisional government?"

   "Yes, but she just came from Lezein not long ago, I suspect..." the **** man pretending to be Piaf guessed.

   "You suspect that she is also a member of the Provisional Government, trying to win our trust by betraying her companions, right?" Piaf said.

   "Yes, it's better to be careful."

   "Tell me about your situation." Piaf raised her chin at Clementine.

Clementine had imagined the scene of her meeting with Piaf, but she didn't expect it to be in this way. She looked around vigilantly at the people around her, always feeling that they were all spies of the provisional government: "I...I came from Laizein came over..."

   "It's written on this ID card, tell me something we don't know, for example, why do you stop around here frequently?"

   "Because I want to join the Propaganda Department of the International Equality League in the future." Clementine said, looking directly at Piaf.

   "Have you submitted the application yet?" Piaf asked again.

   "The application has been submitted, and we are waiting for review and training."

   "Then why don't you just stay at home and wait for the staff to find you, but stay near the building all the time?"

"I…"

   "She must have a ghost in her heart." Seeing this, the **** man pretending to be Piaf became more certain of his conjecture.

  Piave didn't think so. She felt that Clementine's delay in speaking was not because she couldn't speak, but because she seemed to have something hard to say: "Don't be afraid, it's safe here. Say what you have."

   "I..." Clementine didn't dare to think so, but at this point, she could only start exchanging top-secret information with Piaf, "I want to talk to you alone."
