Twenty Seven Years Chapter 428

July 27th

Heping Street, Tavern

After having a clear plan for the future route, everyone's mental outlook was refreshed, and after dinner early in the morning, they split up and went out to work.

Verak sat in the tavern, flipping through the reply letter from the terminal in the quiet compartment.

Boin readily approved the aid, and arranged for the Sder Kingdom sub-station adjacent to Bash to provide full assistance to help Comrade Vladislav, Comrade Arseni and others who were fighting outside later to contain the energy of the scavengers.

With this guarantee, he has nothing to worry about. The only thing he needs to focus on right now is to avoid being noticed by Maxim and the scavenger in advance.

As long as they can wait until Vladislav and Arseni leave the city, there is an 80% chance that this will be done.

"Comrade Virak." Victor knocked on the door and entered the compartment after getting permission.

Because of the closure of the tavern, Victor no longer needs to be in charge of the bartender. He is now mainly engaged in the communication between the substation and the main station, helping to take care of the logistics.

"What's wrong?" Verak burned the telegram at the terminus.

"Old comrades from various places have already rushed over. Should I arrange for you to meet with them, or let them settle down at the several sites that Comrade Quentin has arranged?"

"Let's meet each other first. At least I have to know the comrades who know the sub-station. Otherwise, I won't even be able to call the names, and I won't even be able to match the faces. How will I arrange work later." In addition, Verak also has A plan to appease everyone and restore everyone's confidence.

"Then let them come here first, meet with you, and then settle in the secret site." Victor left.

"Yeah." Verak sorted out the documents on the table, and came to the lobby of the tavern to wait.

Ten minutes later, the first batch of six old comrades came to the tavern led by Victor.

Among them were the Bresci who came from Lezein with Cosmo, and the natives of Bash. But no matter what the background was, the moment they saw Verak, they couldn't help being moved, and they couldn't hold back their emotions.

"Comrade Verac!"

There was a bit of sadness in the excited greetings.

They have experienced too much suffering during this time.

You can't show your face at will, you can't contact people at will, because you are wanted and you can't work for a living. They hide in corners that won't be noticed by the inspection team, and rely on ways that ordinary people can't imagine to maintain their lives.

Finally one day, the comrades found them. When they thought the dawn had finally arrived, the first news they got was that the extremely trustworthy station master had already betrayed the revolution. The sacrifice of their companions and their current situation were all caused by their own people.

If Comrade Veraker and the most famous flag of the International Equality League were not there, they might not be able to withstand such a heavy blow, lose the motivation to persevere, and usher in a tragic end.

"You have worked hard during this time!" Verak stepped forward and shook hands with several people.

"Fortunately, you are here..." A disheveled comrade couldn't stop crying, "The Bash branch needs you!"

"Don't worry, we will get through this difficult time." Veraker's emotions were also surging. He invited several people to sit in the cubicle, and Tovictor prepared some food for them.

The six comrades wanted to have a chat with the long-respected Comrade Verak, but they hadn't eaten anything decent for a long time, and when they saw the food being served, their eyes glowed green and they kept talking Swallow.

The more this happened, the more heartbroken and angry Verak felt.

Cosmo has harmed comrades in all sub-stations!

These comrades had no money, no place to live, and relied on their belief and will to endure danger, hunger and cold for several months!

They don't have to!

They were almost slaughtered by Cosmo and the Scavenger!

Just like that, Cosmo still has the guts to go back to the substation to work with them again!

Verak will never allow it!

"Don't worry, you guys have something to eat first, let's talk slowly after eating." Verak greeted several people to fill their stomachs first, and enthusiastically poured them a glass of water one by one.

"Thank you!"

"thanks!"

"Then let's eat first..."

Comrades ate voraciously.

Seeing that there was not enough food, Verak quickly asked Victor to prepare some.

In just a few minutes, the six of them wiped out several large plates of food, and all of them ate until their stomachs were round and they hiccupped again and again.

"Do you need more food?" Verak asked with a smile.

"No, no, no, I'm full." Comrades waved their hands.

"It's been hard work for you in the past few months. You have persevered in such a difficult environment." Verak admired the comrades in front of him from the bottom of his heart. If we are passive, we will fight back firmly, avenge the comrades who died, and defend the rights and interests of the people."

Comrades kept nodding.

They believe Verac's words!

"Comrade Verak, is Cosmo here?" Before Verak could speak further, a comrade couldn't help asking.

"...He's here." Verak could almost guess what the comrades wanted to do.

"Can you take us to meet him?"

"Of course, but he is still valuable to us now. When I see him, I hope you can control your emotions." Verak didn't mind them going to see Cosmo, but he was just afraid that they would get angry and swarm him Zimo was beaten to death.

"We understand that we won't do anything." The leading comrade assured.

Verak stood up first: "Come with me."

A group of people came to another compartment door. Verak took out the key to open the door, and walked forward first, blocking the way between Cosmo and the six comrades, so as to prevent the comrades from doing something uncontrollably. .

"You, you..." The drowsy Cosmo was too shocked to speak when he saw the people behind Verak.

"You bastard!" A comrade just took half a step forward before being stopped by Veraker, "How many people have you killed for your own survival!"

"Calm down." Verak firmly controlled his comrade.

"I really want to kill you now! Avenge those comrades who died!" The most emotional comrade roared.

He spoke what he wanted to say instead of the others, so the others didn't say much, but stared at Cosmo fiercely with eyes that seemed capable of cutting people apart.

Cosmo broke out in a cold sweat, and he tried to move back: "I, I don't want to do this either... But you didn't know the situation at the time... If it were you, you would-"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Comrade Cosmo interrupted, "We will not be like you, scum and scum! Just give up other people because of trivial threats to their lives! Don't take your despicable Think about us!"

"I..." Cosmo was speechless.

"Bah!" Hearing this, several other comrades rolled up their sleeves and couldn't help but want to do it.

"Calm down!" Verak raised his voice and stopped several people, "Now is not the time for us to act rashly! He still has value! We have to think about more comrades who are still alive!"

Comrades gradually calmed down.

Verak also let go of his hand, and faced Cosmo: "What you have done will never be forgiven. What you can do now is to make up as much as you can. In this way, one day you will leave this world in the future and face When those dead souls are killed, they may let you go."

“…I already knew I was wrong.”

"When you made this decision, you knew exactly what the result would be. It's not right or wrong, or it doesn't make sense to know that it's right or wrong." Verak was too lazy to talk nonsense with Cosmo, "What else do you think? Do you want to vent?"

Comrades did not speak.

"Let's go, we still have business to do, let's let this muddy here." Verak led his comrades back to the original compartment.

After returning, the six comrades were in a somewhat depressed state.

Upon seeing this, Verak said: "I understand you, seeing Cosmo but being unable to do anything must be very aggrieved, thinking that I once believed in such a bastard, I must be very regretful... But things have already happened, we cannot be let go What we should do now is to bear the grief and bear the will of the comrades who sacrificed, so as to make our cause a success.”

"Do you... have any plans in the future?" The comrade who was first awakened asked about the follow-up plan of the sub-station.

"Of course, the follow-up of the substation..." Veraker was very happy to see everyone come out of the haze, stand up from the place where they were knocked down, and then stride forward.

He briefly told a few people about the results of last night's meeting, and learned that the main station would provide assistance and that their plan was highly feasible. Hope and fighting spirit were rekindled in the hearts of the comrades.

How long has it been since you have done something for the revolutionary cause?

They forgot.

All I can remember in my mind are trying my best to survive these few months.

Those days are finally over, and the people who can really lead their revolution have come. They will reawaken the idea of equality on the land of Bash, and let the people live in a better world.

After sending these comrades away and placing them in several newly opened secret sites, Verak saw four more batches of more than 30 comrades gathered from various places in the morning.

Their situation is not much different from the first six people, and they have all undergone severe physical and mental tests in the past few months. Fortunately, they persevered.

This is also the confidence and strength they fed back to Verak.

They were tenacious, they were indomitable, and fighting alongside them, Verak didn't feel that changing Bash was so elusive.

In order to make use of the time, Stuart and Connie said hello in advance before coming back in the evening, so at noon, after Quentin, Oscar, Vladislav, and Arseni returned to the tavern one after another, they gathered together to eat up for lunch.

While eating, Verak told everyone about the group of comrades who came over in the morning. Everyone sighed when they learned about the life of the old comrades in the past few months.

"We should let them kick Cosmo one by one, at least to relieve the anger!" Oscar said angrily.

"There are so many people, one person can kick Cosmo to death." Verak shook his head, rejecting Oscar's angry suggestion, "After a while, let's formally discuss how to deal with Cosmo. "

"Well, this matter should be handled properly." Vladislav agreed.

Quentin took a sip of his meal and drank half a glass of water: "I met the patrol captain and Clark in the morning. They were about to come to the tavern for a drink, but I stopped them."

"You told him that the tavern was closed?" Veraker was still preparing for the visit of the patrol captain in the morning.

"The tavern is the best opportunity for us to meet Clark in private, so what I told the inspector captain is that the tavern will be redecorated in the next few days and will be temporarily closed, but if he comes, he will still be warmly entertained." Quentin said, " We made an appointment for an afternoon or evening drink, so I won't go out in the afternoon."

"The captain of the inspection team is here, should I hide Cosmo in a safer place?" Arseni worried.

"It's not necessary." Verak saw Cosmo's weakness, "Even if the captain of the inspection team stood in front of the door of Cosmo's cubicle, he didn't dare to make a sound, because putting us in a desperate situation is equivalent to For him, don't even think about living. For a person like him, he can live one more day, and he will definitely cooperate with us quietly."

Oscar chewed his food: "Why did you choose someone like Cosmo to be the station master?"

"I was there when I selected comrades to establish sub-stations in major cities and even abroad." Verak recalled the scene of giving lectures and seeing off comrades a year ago. "People will change, and they will also have different experiences. I gradually discovered what kind of person I really am. At that time, everyone was full of enthusiasm and didn't go through any life-and-death crises. Naturally, it was difficult to accurately judge whether they had the ability to lead the sub-station. Through groping and making progress together, It was both unexpected and logical to have someone like Cosmo in there."

"In the future, such situations should be greatly reduced. As Comrade Verak said, people need to experience to be tempered, or to be changed, or to discover what they really are. Now that comrades have experienced enough, it should be Everything is already what it is, and it is not so easy to misjudge someone." Quentin continued.

"It makes sense. Those who should be scared away have already been scared away, those who should be weak and surrender have already surrendered, and those who have gone through so much and are still here to persist in the revolution, I think few are softies." Oscar quite agrees, "I hope to never There should be no more people like Cosmo, and we will work together to bring about the cause of revolution."

Verak finished the food on his dinner plate while several people were chatting, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said: "It is impossible to prevent this from happening, if it is really so iron and impeccable, we could have done it a long time ago." The world has been subverted. Expectations can be expected in this way, but this incident has sounded a wake-up call for us. In the future, we must always be vigilant, guard against external enemies, and resolutely eliminate internal enemies."
