Twenty Seven Years - Chapter 463

  Chapter 463 Urgent

  October 26, early morning

  Monrego Empire, Montrego City

   “Still resting?” Murphy groped out of the hotel and sat next to Verak, who was smoking.

   “Why don’t you take a rest?” Veraker glanced at Murphy, and continued to look up at the dim sky aimlessly in boredom.

   “Of course I rested. It’s not that I found this place after waking up and seeing that you weren’t there.” Murphy shuddered, “Aren’t you afraid of the cold?”

  Verak was very calm: “It’s numb.”

   “Do you want me to help you out with a coat?” Murphy asked concerned.

   “No, it’s not too cold.” Verak took a breath of cigarette and let it out slowly.

Murphy could see that Veraker was silently digesting the news of Boyne’s death. He wanted to help, but he didn’t know where to start. Finally, he remained silent for a long time and asked about his plans after dawn: “Have you figured it out?” ? Are we going to see Gonzalez today or not?”

“I didn’t think about it.” Verak was thinking about this question, “I saw him but didn’t reveal about Boyin. When the news came out later, there must be a problem with the cooperation. But I told him about Boyin, and the main station still refused. It is blocked for various considerations, once Gonzalez and the others leak out, we will cause big trouble to the terminus.”

   “The best way is to wait, communicate clearly with the main station, confirm the time when they announce the news, and we will meet with Gonzalez at the same time.” Murphy said.

   “At present, it can only be like this.” Verak nodded slightly, “But it can’t be delayed for too long, after all, the charity dinner is in operation, and our absence for a long time will arouse suspicion.”

   “Then I’ll contact the main station and ask about the specific time, so we can arrange it in time.” Murphy got up.

   “It’s too late.” Verak raised his hand, “Let’s wait until dawn.”

  Murphy thought for a while: “It should be almost dawn on Laizein’s side now.”

  Villac rushed upstairs and raised his chin: “I mean them, let them have a good night’s rest. It’s hard for them to fall asleep, and sleep as long as they can.”

   “…Okay.” Murphy sat down again.

   “…What were you like when your brother Diaz died?” Verac saw that Murphy didn’t mean to go back to rest, and took the initiative to ask about the things they had been avoiding before.

“My mind went blank. It took me a long time to realize that my brother was sacrificed.” Murphy looked away a lot, at least he was able to maintain a stable mood and communicate with Veraker now, “It’s hard to describe the feeling. Sad, It’s not sad, I miss it, but I don’t miss it, as if my brother is actually still there.”

“Before your brother sacrificed, I have already experienced many life and death.” Verak was a little lonely, “In the past, many things happened to me, which would always make me grow up and learn to face it calmly. But only one comrade Sacrifice, I can’t learn to accept…every time someone leaves, I wonder why it’s them and not me. What’s so special about me? What if they live to see the new world come happy?”

  Murphy lowered his head and sighed softly: “We have no choice.”

“Byne’s sacrifice was different from others. We knew about his physical condition half a year ago, and we knew that sooner or later there would be such a day.” Verac’s image of Boyne appeared in his mind, his nose sore, “But it’s still too much.” Suddenly.”

   “How about… contact Mr. Keating?” Murphy could feel that Veraker was under countless times more pressure and grief than he was. He could do nothing but listen silently and cry empathetically. Keating was the only one who could make Veraker feel better and heal his grief.

   “No.” Verak stomped out the cigarette butt, “I don’t know what to say to Mr. Keating.”

   “But we have to…”

“I’m fine.” Verak patted Murphy in turn, and took a deep breath, “It’s just that people are tired, and when these things accumulate in their hearts to a certain extent, they can’t help but want to let go of everything and take a few breaths. “

   Murphy looked at Veraker.

  Verak turned his head and showed a tough smile: “I’m out of breath, I can continue to fight.”

  Looking at Verak’s smile and eyes, Murphy who was touched turned his back and quickly wiped away the tears in his eyes: “I can do it too.”

   “Okay, let’s go back and rest.” Verak stood up with his thighs propped up, “There are still many things waiting for us to do.”

   “Yes.” Murphy followed Veraker back to the room.

  On the surface, the two were relieved and comforted each other, lying on both sides, with their eyes open in the darkness, unable to easily erase the sadness in their hearts as they said verbally.

  The same is true of other people.

   It was a silent, sleepless night.

   Later, Verak didn’t know how he fell asleep. Anyway, when he woke up, Lopez and others had already left the hotel and went to investigate information in various districts.

   “You’re awake.” Connie also seemed to get up very early, sitting at the desk and studying Montregovin seriously, “I’ll go buy you breakfast.”

   “No need.” Seeing that Murphy was still resting, Verak replied softly. Then, feeling the warm sunlight coming in through the window, I was in a daze for a while, wondering if the bad news might just be a dream.

   “Then… are we going to do something?” Connie’s expression told Verak that it was not a dream.

  Verak went to the bathroom: “When Murphy wakes up, communicate with the terminal first.”

   “Okay.” Connie settled down and continued to learn Montregovin.

   “Shua!”

  Cool water came out of the faucet, and Verak flushed his face, so that he could wake up as soon as possible and devote himself to the new day’s work.

  Maybe because he was a little noisy, Murphy soon woke up, heard Connie tell Veraker’s arrangement for him, pinched the bridge of his nose, sat in front of the telegraph and began to communicate with the terminal.

   “Are you awake?” Verac, who had finished washing, saw Murphy wearing earphones, and kept pressing the button.

  Murphy didn’t hear Verak’s voice, and concentrated on operating the telegraph.

  Connie put down the book when she saw this: “He just woke up and heard that you planned to contact the main station first, so he went directly to get it.”

   “Okay.” Verak moved a stool and sat beside Murphy, waiting to communicate with the terminal with him.

   “Contacting.” Murphy only noticed Veraker and reported to him.

   “Yeah.” Verak didn’t bother Murphy much, and waited quietly.

   Not long after, Murphy adjusted the earphones, quickly picked up the pen and recorded the code on the paper: “Contacted.”

  Verak turned sideways and studied the lines of code written by Murphy.

   After recording the code, Murphy translated the content according to the code book. When the first sentence was translated, he paused for a moment, translated backwards carelessly, and hurriedly pressed the button to send a message to the main station.

   “Boom!”

  At the same time, dense and hurried footsteps came from outside the room, and then the door was pushed open vigorously. Lopez and others who were originally going to investigate the situation in various areas rushed in with newspapers, talking in a panic.

From the performance of Murphy, Lopez and others, Verac saw that something was wrong. After vaguely hearing the words ‘International Equality League’ and ‘Lezein’ from the mouths of the crowd, he grabbed the newspaper, Look at the eye-catching headline above.

  The only thing he recognized in the headline was the words ‘International Equality League’.

   Could it be that the news of Bo Yin’s death spread?

  How could it be so fast?

   Isn’t the terminal trying their best to block the news?

   Not right.

  If the news of Boyne spread, then Lopez and the others wouldn’t be so flustered.

   “What’s the matter?!” Connie closed the door, and quickly walked over to read the newspaper with Verac, but she also only recognized a few familiar words as she had just started learning Montregovin.

   “Murphy, what are they talking about? What is written in the newspaper?” Verak patted Murphy and showed him the newspaper.

  Murphy turned a deaf ear and persistently communicated with the terminal to confirm.

   “Murphy! What happened?!” Verak said with a serious face.

   Soon, the main station sent back a message, and Murphy, who didn’t bother to answer Veraker, picked up the codes he had recorded and corrected them one by one. After confirming that there were no mistakes in the telegram, he leaned back in his chair and slowly took off the earphones.

   Seeing Murphy’s ashen face, Veraker unfolded the newspaper in front of him: “What is written on it?! What did the terminal say?!”

   “Comrade Morais…Last night…” Murphy’s chest heaved violently, and he was even more shocked than he was when he learned of Boyne’s death yesterday. “I was assassinated last night.”

   “What?!” Virak stood up abruptly, holding an unintelligible newspaper, and exclaimed in surprise, “Didn’t he go back to Lezein?! How could—”

   “It’s in Laizein…” Murphy stared at the code.

  Combining the telegram from the main station and the content that was released overnight by the Bressi government forces in the newspaper, Veraker and Connie quickly learned about what happened in Laizein last night.

  After Morais returned to Laizein from the front line, he first went to the hospital to see Boyne for the last time, and then called all the directors who could be present to the Equality Building for a meeting to discuss various matters.

   Just as they arrived in front of the Equality Building and were inspected by soldiers one by one, Elton, the Minister of Health of the International Equality Alliance and one of the directors, suddenly shot Morais and Keating, catching everyone by surprise.

   Morais, who witnessed Elton’s uproar, pushed Keating away, but was shot three times in the chest. Although he was sent to the hospital immediately for emergency treatment, he died because of his serious injuries.

  The Minister of Public Security urgently activated the alert throughout the city, and personally led people to find evidence of secret contacts with the government forces from the home of Elton, who was shot dead on the spot overnight, and confirmed that the government forces planned the assassination.

   Then, within two hours, the government troops on the front line launched a surprise attack on the weak points of the Equality Army’s multiple defense lines, and spread the news of the deaths of Boyne and Morais to major newspapers.

Although Joseph, who is on the front line, has been guarding against the government army, the government army has used the advantage of intelligence to secretly mobilize far more than the Equal Army. It has precisely selected the best places to attack after the Equal Army has redeployed, and dispatched heavy troops all the way. The momentum is like a broken bamboo.

  Bressi’s situation was reversed in an instant, and the balance of victory fell to the government army.

“Judging from the evidence of dealings with the government forces, Elton has been secretly in touch with the government forces for several months. He is also the Minister of Health and one of the directors. Boyne’s death must have been notified to the government forces long ago.” Murphy analyzed with a sullen face, “The reason why the government army didn’t make this matter public, but pretended not to know, is to secretly mobilize the frontline troops and plan this assassination against Morais…”

“They must have expected that Morais and many important comrades would come back, and the person who succeeded Boyne was among them, so they wanted to assassinate the International Equality League again!” Connie was so angry that she wanted to go back and generalize the government army now. People are cut to death.

“It seems that Elton intends to enter the building before making a move. At that time, all the directors and the vice-chairman of the alliance will not be fortified. He can suddenly kill the most cadres to the maximum extent and cause the greatest damage to the International Equality Alliance. It’s just him Unexpectedly, Morais would temporarily change the inspection regulations of the Equality Building. Forced to do so, he had no choice but to shoot Morais and Keating before the gun was deducted…” Verac looked expressionlessly at the terminus The detailed information sent, “If Comrade Morais and Comrade Keating can be successfully assassinated, the International Equality League will not be able to elect a new chairman for a while. I am far away from abroad and cannot go back. If Joseph comes back to sit in charge, There must be omissions on the front line, and the government troops will be able to attack Laizein in one go…”

   Lopez kicked a chair down angrily: “These bastards! How insidious!”

“right!”

   “A group of heartless people! Helping those rich and powerful fight the International Equality League!”

  Murphy glanced at Lopez and the others, but did not speak.

  Whether it was an assassination, or the government army pretended to be ignorant, after the Equality Army redeployed the defense line, it followed by a secret transfer of the main force, there is nothing to say.

  The International Equality League has also assassinated people from the government.

   It doesn’t make any sense for both sides to just condemn the tactics with their mouths.

   “The situation on the front line is not optimistic. Fortunately, Mr. Keating was not injured and can sit in the rear to maintain the overall situation.” Verak said in a deep voice.

   Morais’s sacrifice is different from Boyne’s.

  Morais’ sacrifice was more sudden, more regrettable, and at the same time brought about a more critical situation. At this juncture, no one had time to raise sadness again, but unanimously focused their attention on the front line.

  Once the front line of the International Equality League is captured, even if the railway is destroyed, the government forces can approach Laizein within two days at the fastest.

   “What… what should we do?” After the anger passed, Lopez and the others looked at Verak helplessly.

   It’s just that Boyne passed away, and the International Equality League still has great hope to continue to develop despite the pressure of all parties. Once the main station is stable, they can safely carry out cooperation with Porfirio and Gonzalez to establish a branch station in Montrego.

But Morais was assassinated immediately, and the overall situation in the terminal was at stake. Whether the tense front line could withstand the government army’s offensive became anyone’s guess. Their cooperation with Porfirio and Gonzalez was completely complete. Became a bubble.
