Twenty Seven Years Chapter 243

  Chapter 243 People also need to vent

   Looking around, most of the people in the tavern were avoiding Monroe's eyes.

  Verak followed and scanned the crowd: "That's fine, Fisher's death is enough to deter them and extinguish their thoughts."

  At first, Veraker was worried that even Fisher's death would not solve the problem. Those who secretly obeyed Fisher's orders might explode immediately after tearing their faces, triggering a huge battle within the Sea Rat Gang. Now it seems that Monroe's relaxation and restraint may be a better solution.

"No." Monroe shook his head and whispered close to Veraker's ear, "Since they are willing to follow Fisher, it means that they have the intention to quit, and want to squeeze the compatriots in Manchester City and run away with a sum of money. Fisher's death can't change their cowardice and despicableness, I don't want to deal with it now just because I don't want to tear the Sea Rat Gang to pieces at this juncture."

  After listening to Monroe's whisper, Verak also turned his head and said in a low voice: "So you want to take your time, and you must deal with them, but try not to affect the Sea Rat Gang as much as possible."

   "Yeah." Monroe said.

   "Alright..." Verac didn't know how to evaluate it.

  He knew that there was nothing wrong with Monroe doing this. If he didn't have such foresight and courage to make a decisive decision, Monroe would not be the boss of the Sea Rat Gang and the leader of the Ribreci in Old South York.

   Only he thought of himself.

  In the past, he was ignorant and ignorant, and used the Equality Society to benefit himself. Later, he finally awakened and miraculously escaped from prison after being infected by the Equality Society.

If Morais and Chloe held the same view at that time, as Monroe said now, that people who have betrayed have changed in essence and can no longer trust and work together, then he does not know now where to stay.

  He admired Monroe's city mansion, and even more admired Morais' courage.

  If he had to choose, he would also be a person like Morais, believing and daring to believe that those who were enemies and who betrayed him would stand on his side again.

  Because he knows that there will be tens of thousands of people like him who have awakened a little later and are anxious day and night, wondering whether the light will accept him if he invests in the light.

  He is willing to be the all-encompassing light.

"I will do two things in the past few days. The first is to solve internal problems bit by bit. The second is to make preparations on our side according to the content of the meeting in the morning." Monroe said, "After that Just wait for the news from them, have a second meeting, complete the final decision, and find an opportunity to do a big job."

   "I need to do something." Verak asked.

   "You..." Monroe pronounced the word "you" very long, and obviously didn't know how to place Veraker.

  Verak is too special.

  He was clean enough for Monroe in the Sea Rats, but he was too short-lived to be reused.

   "Don't you want to make some books?" Monroe thought of a way.

   "You mean the theory of equality?" Verack knew it well, and knew that Monroe didn't want to reuse him at least temporarily. This is also normal. There are still a group of people who support Monroe in the Sea Rat Gang. He ignores those people, and instead raises a newcomer who has just joined the gang for a few days to a high position, which will shake the current rule. Lost hearts again.

Putting himself aside now, on the one hand, he has to look at how he really is, on the other hand, he needs to solve the mess in the gang first, support those cronies, suppress and kick out those former follower fees. Scheer's people.

"Yes, about the theory of equality, as well as the manifesto and the song. I happen to be busy on my side, so you can get more copies, and help me get one too." Monroe arranged for Veraker live.

   "Okay." Verak agreed very simply.

   This is exactly what he wants.

   In this way, he would have the opportunity to see Mr. Keating again, and he could get "Equality", "Internationale", and "Women's Declaration" to show to Monroe.

   "Do you have money?" Monroe was still a little embarrassed, so he wanted to win over Verak through some other means.

"Gone…"

   In fact, Veraker still had hundreds of gallons on him, and Keating had hundreds of thousands more—when they left Lazein, Boyne and Morais gave them a lot of money.

   "Take it." Monroe handed all the thousands of gallons in his pocket to Veraker, "It will be hard for you to find books these days."

   "It won't take so much." Verak wanted to step back a bit, and act less greedy.

   "Take them all. If you have more, you can spend whatever you want. If you don't have enough, you can ask me for more." Monroe didn't answer, but continued to drink.

  Munro declined for a while, and Veraker stopped pressing, which made him seem too deliberate. He put the money away and said, "Then you are about to start?"

   "Well, I have to stabilize my people before the plan starts." Monroe drank the wine in one gulp.

   "Come to me whenever you need my help."

"rest assured."

  Verak got up: "Then I will go first."

   "Let's sit down and have some lunch together first." Monroe pretended to stay.

"No need, I'm not very hungry. I'll try to find the book as soon as possible. You should support my plan after reading it." Verak waved his hand, passed the strong men who didn't dare to show their spirits, and left the tavern. He pretended to inquire about "The Theory of Equality" in Manchester City for a long time, so as to prevent any possible stalkers from discovering the anomaly.

Although he originally didn't plan to get "Equality" and other works in Manchester, because then he would not be able to go to the city to meet Keating in a fair manner, but what he never expected was that there was really no "Equality" in Manchester. ".

  Many people here have heard of the Equality Association. After all, the Equality Association attacked the government building. It's just that they basically don't know what the Equality Association does specifically, and what "On Equality", "The Internationale" and "Women's Declaration" are.

  It seems that the promotion of the Equality Association needs to be strengthened.

   As night approached, Veraker thought to himself as he drove to the city in a carriage.

If equality will leave this vague impression everywhere in the world, with only one name, and no motive for attacking government buildings, then their plan to hold up torches to try to bring people in the dark who yearn for the light to them will be considered a failure up.

  After arriving in the urban area, Verac still didn't dare to take it lightly. He couldn't believe that Monroe would really confide in him. He was afraid that he would have a hole card and send someone to follow him secretly. So instead of looking for Keating directly, he found a random hotel to stay in, and sneaked out until late at night, rushing all the way to the hotel where Keating lived on Mantelin Avenue to meet him.

"How about it?"

"How about it?"

  As soon as the two met, they asked the same question in unison.

   "Then I'll talk first." After entering the room, Verak let out a breath of air, sat down and told Keating everything about his situation these days.

   Keating was awakened by the knock on the door in the middle of the night and was still in his pajamas. Seeing that Veraker was freezing, he thoughtfully poured him a cup of hot water, and quietly listened to the situation over there.

   "So, your current position in the Sea Rat Gang is awkward and vague. There is nothing to do." Keating summed up Veraker's current situation.

"That's right, I just want to take "Equality" back to Monroe to read, so as to influence their plans." Verac finished his plan, not forgetting to clarify the priority, "Of course, the gold thing is the most important thing. Importantly, I will not delay our recovery of the gold because of their affairs."

"Well. We are here for gold. I know your character and our philosophy of equality. It is impossible to sit idly by when you see Dunman's things, but you have to get the gold done before you intervene with all your strength." Keating was pleased with Verac.

  Verak cared about the suffering civilians in Dunman, which moved him very much as a Dunman. At the same time, Verak was not overwhelmed, put the gold matter aside, and glowed regardless. He can take into account the overall situation and make progress steadily, which is very good.

   "There is just one thing that I find very tricky." Verak mentioned what he was most worried about after seeing it personally in the past few days. "The old Monroe of the Sea Rat Gang is not an ordinary person. I am afraid that the matter of gold will not be hidden from him."

"Fisher, the second in command of the original Sea Rat Gang you mentioned, should have been with Monroe for many years. Even he, a person who is very familiar with Monroe, has been found to be working secretly. You are indeed in a worse situation. It's tough. If you're not careful...it may be life-threatening." Keating worried that Verack would be eliminated by Monroe when he used the background of the Sea Mouse Gang to promote the gold thing.

   "I haven't fully understood this person yet, so I'm not absolutely sure that I won't arouse his suspicion." Verak sighed heavily.

   Keating silently looked at Veraker with a look of concern, and helped him think about countermeasures.

   "...how is your side?" Veraker changed the subject and asked about Keating's situation.

"My side is not bad, and I have already contacted the nearest branch of the Equality Association established in the capital of the Riches Federation." Verac asked, and Keating took out the map first, and answered his progress, "We We can start from the old Nanko, connect the capital substation of the Riches Federation, and connect with the main station of Laizein to form a line to build a passage.”

   "In this way, the transportation route of gold will be clear, right?" Verak said, looking at the map, where the capitals of the Republic of Brescia, the Federation of Richelieu, and the United States of Dunman are strung together in a line.

"Yes, the general direction is like this, but it will take more time to actually construct a passage." Keating also stared at that route, "As for the purchase of funds for the tavern, it is too late to get the funds from Laize Because it was dialed over there, we can only collect it from the substation of the Riches Federation. It is best if we can buy the tavern. If we can't buy it, the money will be used to build our substation in Dunman.”

  Villac waited for Keating to finish speaking, and asked, "Will Boyne, Morais and the others fill up the vacancy in the substation of the Riches Federation?"

"Yes." Keating said, "The substation of the Riches Federation will transfer a group of people here, not only as the manpower for gold transportation, but also as the core members of the Dunman substation when it was first established, to maintain the most basic It's working. There's no need to worry about manpower vacancies in this area, and Laizein will send people to our two places in the future.”

   "How is Laizein now?" Veraker didn't bother to watch the news these days, wondering what happened to Laizein, which has been closed and strictly investigated since they stormed the government building.

"They're fine. The government is investigating closely. However, Laize is so big and the Equality Society is very popular, so they haven't left any clues to the government." Keating said what he knew, "Besides, through torture Rock Shriver, Boyne, Morais and the others got a list of undercover agents hidden among the reserve members. After cleaning up, they have begun to recruit reserve members in an orderly manner.”

  Hearing the good news from Laizein, Verac, who has been under a lot of pressure recently, finally smiled: "What about Nord, Diaz, Murphy, Rose?"

"Ross' injury has mostly healed, and now he is working on creating exciting music to boost morale. Nord, Diaz, and Murphy are also good. I heard that they have recently become the backbone of the newly established training class. Boyne, Morais deliberately promoted them and put them in important positions."

   "That's good." Hearing that Rose's health improved, Nord, Diaz, and Murphy also began to contribute their strength to the Equality Society, Verac was very relieved, and even in an instant, his eyes were red.

  His mood was mixed.

  I am glad that under his influence, all my friends have burst out with greater value in life, and they can do something together for this great cause.

   Sentimental over Colin's death, Dawn's death. If life could be repeated again, or if there were more possibilities at that time, these two would be by his side without accident.

   "Huh..." Verak lowered his head and took a long breath, trying to calm down the sadness that surged in his heart.

   Keating didn't say anything, just looked at Verak kindly.

   "...I'm really happy for them." Verak tensed.

   "Do you remember them?" Keating's words touched the softest part of Verak's heart.

  Verak didn't hold back, tears squeezed from his closed eyes.

  When he sees his living companions getting better and better, he always thinks of those close friends who have left and sacrificed.

  He felt guilty and regretful.

  If he had awakened earlier, would Colin not have died?

  If I give Dawn more careful instructions before parting with Dawn, will he be able to live the life I promised him?

  It's a pity that there is no if, everything has happened. Give Verak a heavy blow to his heart again and again, and let him gradually grow stronger in self-blame.

"Um."

  Verak choked out a word.

  Tears fell to the ground one drop after another.

   Keating didn't expect to share the good news, but it made Veraker so sad at the same time: “Cry if you want to cry, child, you can't hide everything in your heart, you also need to release it.”

  Verak didn't cry, he just lowered his head and didn't want Keating to see him crying silently.

"I promise."

   He gritted his teeth.

   “Do everything to the best of my ability, and no one else will pay for my mistakes.”

   "I'm here to bear this witness." Keating patted Veraker.
