Twenty Seven Years Chapter 225

  Chapter 225 Untitled

   "This is for you." The sad breath lasted for a long time, and Verak took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Rose.

  Ross took it slowly, and by the light of the only lights that were on in the middle of the night, read the above content softly: "The Internationale... What is this..."

  Verak sat next to him and calmed down: "You read it first."

A few minutes later, Rose read all the content on the paper, and looked at Verak with a little excitement: "Okay... great... Maybe I used to... I couldn't empathize with you... But now... I can feel the power inside... "

"This is from the Pruman Empire. It is concise, clear and to the point. It is more suitable for dissemination than any of our previous theoretical concepts and can be seen by the public." Verac said that he made a special trip to compose the music that Ross has delayed until now. , "But it is not a song yet, we want to turn it into a song and pass it on in the form of a song."

   "It's a good way to pass it on in the form of a song..." Rose understood Veraker's purpose in showing him this, "So... you want me to compose the song?"

   "That's right." Verak nodded. "Actually, I had this idea a long time ago. Later, when I learned that you were caught, I waited to rescue you and let you create."

  Ross was surprised by this, and he scanned the content of the paper again: "Waiting for me specially? Why...you are not afraid of my death...have you waited so long for nothing..."

"This is not my decision alone. Comrade Morais of the Equality Association learned that the government has captured you, but you still insist on keeping a secret for me. I am moved by your will. We agreed that if we want to compose the Internationale , then you must be the most suitable candidate. We also firmly believe that you will persist until the day we come to rescue you." Verak said.

   "You... did it, didn't you..."

   "Huh?" Verak helped Rose pour a glass of hot water, "What do you mean?"

  Rose was supported to sit up, and took the warm water glass: "When you escaped...you told me about you...you said you would find an equal meeting after you came out...it seems that you have successfully integrated in..."

   "...Yes." Verak looked at Rosmin splashing in the water, "It went well."

  Before returning to face the Equality Council again, Verak was in a state of fear for a long time, imagining various possibilities after his return in countless long late nights.

   What he encountered was one of the best results he could imagine.

   "Since you trust me so much...then leave it to me to compose the music..." Ross drank half a glass of water with difficulty, then held up the paper with the content of the Internationale, "but I have a request."

"you say."

   "I want...to join you." Ross said.

  After a few seconds of silence in front of the hospital bed, Verak asked, "I remember what you want to do. What you want to do most in your life is to continue playing the piano and be a musician."

   "Maybe... I found more valuable music..." Rose remembered Dawn's eyes on him before he died, "Maybe... it's Dawn..."

   "Dawn's business, I will do it. He is not asking you, and you don't have to be affected by it." Veraker chose to devote himself to this cause because he felt that he had a life on his shoulders.

Ross shook his head, and continued weakly: "I know...he just asked me to tell you the words...but those words have been from him to me...to I told you...it's been too long...it's in my body I, my head was spinning... I couldn't stay out of it... I never thought that my life would be full of so many twists and turns...I kept thinking in the interrogation room...Why did I suffer from this...Thinking over and over again...Thinking day and night...Finally I've come to a conclusion...there should be a reason for this, and the answer needs to be told to myself."

  This is a bit like Verak, many people in the Peace Society.

  They are all looking for answers in the struggle.

   "Do you know what it means to join in?" Veraker was touched by Rose's words and asked worriedly.

"It will be very dangerous... My previous dark experience may become the norm... Death will also be close at hand..." Rose was very clear that he made this decision obviously not on a whim, "Do you know why I can persist in the torture? "

"why?"

   "When Lecter tortured you, what were you thinking?" Ross asked back.

Veraker paused, and when he was about to recall what power had made him tenacious, Rose said: "I thought the same as you did...the same power that saved me...brought me back to life .”

reborn.

   These words were only mentioned by Boyne not long ago. Boyne said that Verac is both the reborn self and the reborn Chris.

"Then let me ask you one last time, are you willing to join the Equality Association, fight for equality, and aspire to make this world an equal, united, free, and beautiful world?" Verac stopped dissuading Ross, he knew that Ross and thousands of people Like everyone else, they are unconsciously influenced by correctness.

   "I am willing." Rose said solemnly.

   "Then you are welcome to join the Equality Association, Comrade Ross." Verac held out his hand to Ross in front of the hospital bed with a sense of ceremony.

  Ross took a look, pursed his lips and smiled, and shook hands with Verac.

   early morning

  When Verac returned to the employee dormitory of the factory where he lived, he found three men standing at the door of the dormitory. They looked like Diaz, Nord, and Murphy: "What are you doing?"

   "You're back!" Nord, who was standing at the door chatting to pass the time, took a closer look, and after confirming that it was Veraker, he stepped forward to hug him.

   "How is it?" Verac smiled and looked at Diaz and Murphy who were walking towards him.

"It's a narrow escape, you don't know, at that time..." Nord said with emotion after hugging his rare and extraordinary experience, "Fortunately, Diaz and I are good at martial arts. When the bullets ran out, we waited for a while with our fists and feet, and waited until Charlie to their rescue."

Verak didn't think there was any exaggeration in Nord's words. Using the three small people as bait to contain a large number of government troops, the danger must be unimaginable, and it must be walking on the verge of death: "I have been thinking about you all the time. , but I also believe that you will be able to complete the task brilliantly."

   "We did it." Diaz smiled.

   "Everything is going well." Murphy followed suit.

  Virac and the two of them came to a hug full of emotion: "Thank you..."

   "Thank you too." Diaz said.

  It was very cold outside, and Verak let out a breath of air: "I originally wanted to tell you a lot, but after seeing you standing here, there is only one question left to ask."

   "What?" Nord leaned over again.

"I said before that the reason why you are willing to stay in the Equality Association is because I am here. It is impossible to rely on this idea, and it is irresponsible for us. So I gave you a period of time to consider, I Think, now is the time for you to really decide whether to stay or go." The front foot represented the Equality Association and approved Rose's joining, and the back foot Verac formally asked the three of them.

   "I do." Diaz said.

   "I am willing too." Murphy said.

  Verak looked at Nord, who rarely spoke until the end.

  Nord waited for the eyes of the three to focus on him and said: "I am willing to join the Equality Association."

   "It's the first time you didn't rush to speak first, did you hesitate?" Verak asked curiously.

   "No, I think it seems unstable to answer too simply. For such an important matter, it will be more important to talk about it in silence for more than ten seconds." Nord grinned, explaining the reason for his ingenuity.

   "You boy..." Verak laughed and punched Nord's shoulder, "Okay, it's such a cold day, let's all go back, we'll talk about what we have tomorrow."

   "Okay, let's go first." Diaz said goodbye to Verac.

  Wilak saw them walking outside, and stood still: "You don't live here?"

   "This place was full, and we were arranged to live in another factory." Nord explained.

   "Be careful on the road."

   "Yes, good night!"

"Good night."

  Watching Diaz, Nord, and Murphy leave, Verac tiptoed back to the dormitory. Unexpectedly, no one in the dormitory was asleep, and they were all talking about today's battle.

   "Back?" Keating was reading at the desk.

"Yeah." Verak rubbed his hands, "Boyin and I had a brief chat, and he also said that he is very interested in you, and he will meet you at breakfast tomorrow. I will visit after talking with him Ross, by the way, gave him the content of the Internationale. He agreed to compose the music and applied to join the Equality Association. When he came back, he met Nord, Diaz, and Murphy. It was a cold day, and they were probably at the door After waiting for me for a long time, I talked to them for a while and told them to go back and rest quickly."

   "Nord and the others came to look for you in the dormitory before. Seeing that you were not there, they were afraid of disturbing others' rest, so they went outside and waited for you." Keating put down his book and took off his glasses.

  The room became much warmer. Verac took off his coat and hung it aside: "The plan has been successfully concluded. Shall we set off after this time is over?"

   "Well, from today onwards, the government will block Laizein, and it will not be easy for us to go out. In short, we can leave as soon as we can find an opportunity." Keating said.

   "That thing..." Verak wanted to talk about gold, but he didn't dare to say anything casually.

   "When we meet with them tomorrow, let's talk formally."

"it is good."

  January 5th

  The originally scheduled closing ceremony of the World Expo has been cancelled, and the delegations from various countries withdrew too hastily, making the Mana Pavilion change from bustling to deserted in the blink of an eye.

  The government building has experienced a battle, the ground is in a mess, and reconstruction and restoration work is underway.

  Papers containing the contents of "Theory of Equality", "Women's Declaration", and "The Internationale" distributed by the Equality Association were scattered all over the city.

  Although the government forces came forward to clean it up vigorously and vigorously, it seemed that things that popped up overnight could not be completely removed. Not long after they tore off the paper posted on a street, new paper floated everywhere.

  Citizens dare not take these things home, for fear that they will be searched by the government and arrested by people who directly regard them as members of the Equality Society. However, because these contents appear too densely, they have more or less seen the contents.

  The wave took the lead among young people who are more willing to change, more aggressive, and less fearless.

  In school, the content of the Internationale was always written on the blackboard before class, and the teachers warned countless times to no avail.

  At home, under the scolding of their parents, the children are more vigorously collecting the content of the Equality Association.

  One small communication group after another was born. They exchanged the idea of ​​equality, what awakening is, and what rights are during class breaks, in small alleys after school, and in every place where they can talk.

  In the Buk-gu factory

"The people from the government are conducting a rigorous search. Currently, the search in the North District is relatively the weakest. We speculate that this is because the government destroyed Chloe's stronghold yesterday, and Charles deliberately sent government troops to the North District. They don't think we have any big sites here anymore."

   "The number of probationary members of the Equality Association has increased sharply. Yesterday alone, it reached 5,000. With the previous accumulation, there are now more than 30,000. We must start arranging to formally absorb them and expand our strength."

   "The wounded are in urgent need of medicines, and our previous reserves are far from enough."

"Laizein has been completely blocked. Outsiders can't get in, and we can't get out. However, this kind of blockade should not last long. Under the pressure of all parties, the government will have to carry out certain measures under control within a week at most. open."

   While eating breakfast, Boyne and Morais listened to the report of the cadres in charge of various affairs.

It took Morais a day to tell Boyne everything about this period of time in detail, and Boyne was also trying to resume his work as quickly as possible: "Keep our concealment during this period, The government cannot hold us back. The issue of the reserve members will be resolved at a meeting this afternoon. The distribution channels for medicines must be closely watched, but the wounded cannot be without medicines. We will have a meeting at noon to discuss how to resolve this matter..."

"Yes."

"clear."

   After the cadres finished reporting, they left first. Boin looked at Verac and Keating, who were eating at the same table with him and Morais: "Are you Keating?"

   "It's me." Keating has been listening to Boyne handling the affairs.

   "I have known you for a long time. When you assisted Ravel in governing, you must have rich insights in many aspects. I am curious why you joined the Equality Association, and I hope to learn valuable experience from you." Boyne said.

   "I also hope to learn something new from you." Keating said with a smile.

  The two chatted for a long time while eating breakfast. After a brief acquaintance and understanding of each other, Verak helped introduce the topic: "It happens that the four of us are here, and I want to tell you something."

   "What's the matter?" Boyin asked after taking a sip of water.

   "We've been busy for a while, and Teacher Keating and I want to go to Dunman."

   "What to do in Dunman?"

"It's a long story. When Ravel was overthrown, I asked Mr. Keating to help transfer the assets. Later, after Mr. Keating transferred, Ravel was shot dead, and Mr. Keating was also arrested and sent to Daymans Prison... "Villac made a long story short, explaining the situation of gold.

  Byne and Morais glanced at each other: "You mean, there is gold hidden by Comrade Keating in Dunman's place?"

   "That's right." Verak said.

"how many?"

  Verak looked at Keating, waiting for his answer.

   "Worth 200 million gold grams."

   Looks like there is still one more chapter... Volume 3 will really end tomorrow!
