Twenty Seven Years - Chapter 481
Chapter 481 Public Opinion War (2)
Laizein, Bresci Daily
During the few days when he returned to Lezein with the government army, Capa, like other newspaper reporters who had been coerced, mainly took pictures of the suffering of civilians, and then blamed the atrocities committed by the government forces on the international community. League of Equals.
What made him a little thankful, but also deeply disturbed, was that he didn’t fall into the abyss with the others and became a cold tool of the provisional government. At the last moment, he chose to film the truth secretly and stick to the ideals and principles in his heart.
And that truth—maybe it is the only film in the world that records the atrocities committed by government forces at close range.
It was hidden in the drawer of the table in front of him at this time.
Just by looking at the locked drawer, the scenes from the previous period would be like nightmares, forced to reappear in his mind over and over again.
—You scum and scum! Either help the powerful to take fake things, or point a gun at us! But what did we do wrong? ! What did the International Equality League do wrong? !
-Do not talk nonsense! Get the **** out of here! This is the last warning!
-boom! boom! boom!
“Kappa.”
“Huh?!” Capa was startled, and he recovered his senses and looked to his side.
His immediate boss, editor-in-chief Byron was staring at him with dissatisfaction: “Is the manuscript finished?”
“Uh… soon, soon.” Capa touched his nose and said.
“Delivery to my office within an hour.” The editor-in-chief Byron could see that Capa had just lost his mind, but he didn’t delve into it. The last time limit for roll call went on to inspect other people’s work progress.
“Understood.” Capa agreed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and exhaled lightly while looking at Byron’s back.
The editor-in-chief is an absolute confidant of the provisional government, and he planned, reviewed, and implemented the framing plan that Laizein Daily was responsible for.
Capa was most afraid that Byron would discover the film of the atrocities committed by the government troops that he had secretly photographed.
If this happens, the newspaper will be expelled from the newspaper, and the member of the International Equality League will be imprisoned.
He still has a family to support.
For his own ideals, he can dedicate something of himself, but this does not include his family.
“Huh…” Capa tried to get rid of distracting thoughts and concentrate on writing the manuscript, but he didn’t write a few words, and another huge problem filled his mind, which prevented him from concentrating on his work.
He himself is completely incapable of telling the truth and keeping himself and his family safe afterwards.
If you want to play the true effect of the film and protect yourself, you must rely on the International Equality Alliance to come forward.
But the question is how should the film be handed over to the International Equality League?
He is an ordinary reporter. When Laizein was taken over by the provisional government and under full martial law, it was very difficult to find someone from the International Equality League and hand over the film to the other party.
“Boom—boom—boom—”
At exactly eleven o’clock, the clock in the newspaper office rang.
Hearing the voice, Capa’s heart tightened.
time is limited.
It is not the time to submit the manuscript, but the time left for the International Equality Alliance to prove its innocence.
As a reporter, he understands that the value of the truth is time-limited. When the framing continues for too long, the wrong cognition is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the truth will surface again, there is a high probability that it will be meaningless.
If you want to reverse the current public opinion and give people all over the world a chance to get in touch with the truth, you must race against time!
Clarification as fast as possible!
Kappa turned the pen in his hand and asked himself in his heart: What can I do?
what can I do?
what can I do?
How can I find someone from the International Equality League?
How can we get the film into their hands and help them regain their innocence?
“Kappa.”
“Editor-in-Chief.” While meditating, Capa heard the editor-in-chief’s call, and stood up hastily.
“You don’t need to write the manuscript first, and then go outside to collect some materials, and then use it for other governments.” Editor-in-Chief Byron temporarily arranged.
“…Understood.” Capa agreed, took the camera, and left the newspaper office under the **** of two government soldiers.

Laizein, Action Team General Liaison Office
“Duke Hall said he would think of a way, but please don’t expect too much, after all, the government forces are watching closely.” Henry returned to the guest room where Verac and the others lived and worked, repeating Duke Hall’s words.
“Let me talk to him directly.” Verak told Henry to leave, and simply dialed the phone by himself.
“Hey?”
“Mr. Hall, it’s me, Verac.” Verac said.
“Ah, it’s Comrade Veraker. I will do what you said as soon as possible, but the government is very strict. I don’t dare to promise you that it will work. I can only say that I will do my best…” Duke Hall Guessing the purpose of Verak’s calling in person, before Verak could urge him, he got a vaccination first.
Verac sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes indifferent: “This matter is very important to us, and I think that although you have done a poor job of protecting us, you are not worthy of being a duke. Can’t even handle a camera.”
Duke Hall felt a little embarrassed, and coughed a few times: “The search team searched is my problem. I didn’t use my identity to stop them in front of the hotel, and I failed to notify you in time during the search—”
“Okay, I don’t need to talk about the past. I haven’t looked for you since that incident, which means I don’t mind and I’m willing to give you another chance.” Verak didn’t want to appear too talkative, giving Hall room to shirk , “Now the second chance is in front of you, you can figure it out.”
“It’s not that I don’t want to help. I’m willing to take the initiative to provide you with shelter. Do you think I will deliberately pick and search in these areas? Keating, the chairman of your International Equality League, and I have known each other for decades. If you suspect that I have reservations about this, we can let him judge.” Duke Hall moved out of Keating.
Unfortunately, Keating once reminded Veraker not to make any misjudgments because of their previous friendship.
Actually, as far as he knew, the reason why he was caught secretly transporting gold back then was most likely because this “best friend” leaked information to the new government.
For the sake of the overall situation, Keating did not take revenge on Duke Hall, and pretended not to know anything. It was precisely to make Duke Hall have the illusion that Keating and himself were friends. After Keating became the chairman of the International Equality League, the International Equality League The Equal Alliance might not be a way out for his future, and then he can be used effectively.
“There is no need to trouble Chairman Keating to come forward for this matter.” Verac still did not compromise, forcing Duke Hall to do it, “You can think about it this way, what would it mean if you helped us this way. Even if the International Equality League If you fail, you won’t lose anything, but once we recapture Laizein and defeat the provisional government, your dedication will be remembered by everyone, and you will be the biggest contributor to the establishment of the new world.”
The biggest hero.
When exaggerating these words, Veraker felt a little disgusted, but they knew that they were using each other. Only by saying this and telling the benefits that Duke Hall could get, could he spur him to work for the International Equality League. ‘Glow and heat’.
“I know…” Duke Hall still hesitated.
Although the camera is banned, but with his means, it is not a problem to get some.
He hesitated to give an accurate statement because he was actually afraid that if the action team was arrested by the government forces and the camera was found, he would be implicated.
It’s easy to talk about living in a hotel, and the responsibility can be pushed to Henry, but the camera is not something that Henry can get at all.
At present, there are only a handful of people in Laizein who have this ability. The government has contacted the hotel again, so it is no wonder that I am not suspected.
To put it bluntly, Duke Hall is willing to provide help to the International Equality League, and let the International Equality League owe him favors, but the premise of the help is that he cannot be infected with the slightest danger.
Is there any good deal in the world that can make a profit without risk?
Have.
Verak saw through this, and simply dismissed Duke Hall’s biggest worry: “You think it’s unreasonable for a well-prepared action team to have cameras?”
“Reasonable, there’s nothing unreasonable about it.”
“That’s it. If there is a day when you are captured by government forces, I will say that we prepared the camera early in the morning, and I will never have anything to do with you. After all, our cooperation is a good example. If you follow It’s a disaster, and I’m afraid no one will cooperate with us in the future.” Verak promised.
This sentence is the truth.
Although the Duke of Hall is also using them, they have to protect each other if something happens to them.
This is to show his sincerity to all the forces that may cooperate in the future, and the importance is far beyond that of the little Duke of Hall.
“Well, I can find a way to get the camera for you, but the camera can only be used by your other comrades and cannot be used in the hotel.” Duke Hall is still afraid that the camera will be linked to the hotel in the end, and he will be involved. After being able to weigh left and right, he gave his own plan.
“Yes.” Verak readily agreed.
They were stuck in the hotel and couldn’t go out, and the camera wouldn’t have worked for them.
“How much do you need?”
“As much as you can get, I want as much as I can.” In the absence of evidence, Vilak wished to have countless cameras for them to use, and then send a steady stream of precious photos to the Propaganda Department. Well, I heard it’s small and convenient.”
“I may not be able to meet the specific requirements. Anyway, I will try my best to get you at least twenty.” Duke Hall reported the number.
Verak smiled, not stingy with his praise: “This is the energy you should have.”
“Then I’ll get it.”
“Wait a minute, there is one more thing I want to ask you for help.” Verak lit a cigarette, showing no sign of anxiety, “Do you know about the newspapers controlled by the provisional government that specifically framed us?”
“I only know that there are quite a few, and the government attaches great importance to them and provides very strict protection.” There is nothing to hide about this kind of thing, and Duke Hall will say whatever he has, “And there is, You are now almost the public enemy of the whole world. All countries like to find your negative materials, pour dirty water on you, let the people boycott you, and prevent your ideas from taking root in their places. The Bresi government will follow up These countries provide a wealth of fresh material to further discredit the International Equality League.”
“That is to say, they will forge a lot of such things in the future—no, there is no need to forge. Now there are people with unsatisfactory lives everywhere in Laize, and they say that the International Equality League controls Laize. Just because of what happened during the period.”
“For sure. In short, if you don’t hurry up and clarify, the situation will become more and more unfavorable. I hope these cameras can really help you, and I really can’t do anything else.”
Verak took a deep breath of a cigarette, and frowned slightly: “Is there any way you can arrange our people into those newspaper offices of the Provisional Government?”
“Don’t think about it.” Duke Hall vetoed this time much faster than the camera.
“If our people can get in, they will not only be able to film the current situation of Laizein in a legitimate name, but also record the situation of the newspaper, which will become more powerful evidence for clarification.” Verak fought, “You just need to To dredge the relationship, we can arrange our comrades in just like we arrange jobs for ordinary people.”
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, this juncture arranges people for the newspaper, doesn’t that mean hitting the gun directly?” Duke Hall didn’t have the guts.
Verak tried his best to provide Duke Hall with several ideas, but he firmly rejected them.
Helpless, the call can only end here.
“How is it?” Shirley saw that Verak finished the phone call and sat opposite him.
“One piece of good news and one piece of bad news.” Verac threw the burnt cigarette **** into the ashtray, “The good news is that Hall can help us get a batch of cameras, and we will soon be able to take pictures of Laizein. The bad news is that simply photographing Laizein’s current situation cannot be used as the most powerful evidence. And my idea of sending people into the newspaper office can’t get Hall’s cooperation either.”
Even if the International Equality League now takes out photos to prove that Lezein under the provisional government is the real chaos, it cannot prove that it was not the case when they controlled Laizein.
The interim government also had a good reason to refute: this mess was originally left by the International Equality League.
Afterwards, the provisional government used snacks to maintain order and let Laizein restore some of its prosperity, making it easier to make a fuss, compared with Laizein under the rule of the so-called International Equality League.
If you want to kill with one blow, without giving the interim government any chance or room for sophistry, the best way is to collect the whole process of falsified reports from the newspapers they control, fundamentally disintegrate the rhetoric of the interim government, and make every word they say in the future The authenticity of all of them has been implicated, putting a question mark on it.
Those newspaper offices that are heavily guarded by soldiers are the key to victory.
“We have to enter the newspaper anyway?” Shirley asked.
“That’s the best way I can think of. Besides, any evidence is not enough to overwhelm the provisional government’s framing, and it will only fall into endless debate.” Verak looked directly at Shirley, “This arduous task is currently only capable of being performed by the intelligence team.”
