Twenty Seven Years - Chapter 483

  Chapter 483 Public Opinion War (4)

  Escorted by two soldiers, Capa drove to the gate of the prison where members of the International Equality League were held.

   “We can’t get in.” The soldier didn’t send Capa any further, “We’ll wait for you here.”

   “Okay.” Capa got out of the car with a camera, notebook, and pen, and came to the prison gate. He showed the editor-in-chief Byron’s personal letter to the prison guards patrolling the gate, explaining his purpose of coming.

   After reading the letter, the small captain of the prison guard asked Capa to wait at the door, and went to report the situation to the deputy warden himself.

   Soon, the deputy warden came out and looked up and down at Capa vigilantly: “You go back.”

   “Go back, go back?” This answer surprised Capa. He thought that with the letter written by the editor-in-chief Byron, going to prison would not be a problem at all.

   “Well, let’s go back. The situation in the prison is quite complicated, and it is temporarily inconvenient for non-prison personnel to enter and exit.” The deputy warden explained.

“But this matter is very important.” Capa didn’t want the hope that had just risen to be extinguished in this way, he unfolded the autograph letter written by the editor-in-chief Byron, and organized the language, “Now the propaganda work is bigger than the sky, I just need to shoot Some photos, interviews with some members of the International Equality Alliance. This is a new angle that will create a greater impact in the international community, effectively defeating the International Equality Alliance! You see, this is a handwritten letter written by our chief ! He is one of the initiators and persons in charge of this plan, and he can vouch for me!”

  After hearing this, the deputy warden was a little confused.

Seeing that he did not simply refuse, Capa saw the opportunity and fought further: “Now the normal reports are the same, starting from the arrested members of the International Equality Alliance in prison is an angle that no one has set foot in. This is very likely to become our An important position for follow-up propaganda work! You are rejecting now, not rejecting me, but rejecting the overall propaganda plan—”

“They’re all my own people, and you know some things very well.” The deputy warden grabbed Capa and whispered with a smile, “The so-called interviews are actually compiled by your newspaper? Real interviews and fake interviews All the same, it really depends on how you want to write it, right?”

   “That’s what I said, but—”

“Well, you can come in to take pictures and collect some materials, but you don’t want to meet the arrested members of the International Equality League. This is also a rule. If you want to meet, you can apply to the higher authorities at that time, with the permission of the higher authorities. , I can do something on my side.” The deputy warden gave a plan.

  Seeing talents is the real purpose of Capa’s trip, but it seems that this is the bottom line of the prison. He can only agree to come down first, and then adapt to the situation after entering.

“Fine…”

   “Let’s go.” The deputy warden personally took Capa to visit the prison and gave him some simple explanations.

“I heard that in just a few days, the search team has arrested hundreds of members of the International Equality League. Do you know anything about this matter?” Some photos, choose to ask the deputy warden about the situation.

   “We agreed, just take some photos.” The deputy warden spoke politely because of the face of editor-in-chief Byron, but it could still be seen that he didn’t want to deal with Cappado.

Capa thought of the justification in advance: “As you said, we can make up the content of the interview, but we can’t know everything and write it all by our own imagination. In the end, it will be full of loopholes and be seen as a forgery Yes, who will bear the responsibility?”

  The deputy warden was a little helpless: “What do you want to know, just ask, and I will answer you as much as possible.”

   “I want to know how these hundreds of people were caught?” Capa asked.

“I can’t tell you this, not to mention that I really don’t know very well, even if I do know, this is a top secret, and it is related to whether the search team can catch more people from the International Equality League in the future, how can it be published in the newspapers casually, Right?”

   “Then what do you know? Or, what can you say?” Kapasso asked the deputy warden to propose.

  The deputy warden shrugged and spread his hands: “Basically, I have nothing to comment.”

  The mouth is too tight.

  It was so strict that Capa felt a little strange.

   Isn’t the news that the search party has caught hundreds of members of the International Equality League? Why are the people in the prison so cautious when they come here to interview some insignificant things?

   What are they afraid of?

   “Then don’t talk about it, can I interview you?” Capa proposed.

   “Interview me?” The deputy warden never thought that this matter could have something to do with him.

“So many people from the International Equality League are imprisoned in this prison. It is very appropriate for me to add an interview with the deputy warden when I write the report. If the report really attracts attention, I think your reputation will also skyrocket.” Capa Without waiting for the deputy warden to express his opinion, he opened his notebook and gripped the pen tightly, “What do you think of these people arrested by the International Equality League?”

“Uh…”

   “How did the prison deal with these people?”

   “Wait a minute, interviews are fine, but I’d better find the warden, I’m really not good at this.” Under Capa’s pressing every step of the way, the deputy warden’s forehead even oozes cold sweat.

Capa didn’t know the warden, so he didn’t need to guess. Being the warden was definitely not an easy role, and it was best to talk to the deputy warden who didn’t look so strong and was prone to flaws: “Don’t worry about it, interview It’s very simple, and it doesn’t involve the secrets of the search team. You can just say what you know. If you are afraid of saying something that shouldn’t be said, after the interview, you can check the records I made. If you think there is something wrong, I will Just cross it out.”

   “These can be forged! Anyway, there are photos of the prison, how many people who read the newspaper have the ability to question the authenticity?” the deputy warden evaded.

“The International Equality Alliance is watching. They must be eager to get evidence to expose our lies when they see our reports. The more authentic our reports appear, the less likely they will be exposed. All of this is closely related to you now.” Said this When talking, Capa secretly admired himself, he was really brave enough to say anything.

  A few days before it was released, he didn’t have the guts to lie to the editor-in-chief Byron, let alone force an important deputy warden to a corner.

   But now it feels… not bad?

  He likes the self who is no longer cowardly and brave enough to pursue the truth.

   “You…” the deputy warden didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “I’m just responsible for letting you in, letting you take pictures, and explaining things to you. Why is the task so difficult all of a sudden? I can’t do it, and it’s not my responsibility.”

   “Let’s take a picture first, please take me to the place where the members of the International Equality League are detained.” Capa put away his notebook and pen.

   “I can’t go.” The deputy warden shook his head.

   “I don’t interview them, I just take a few photos.”

   “That can’t.”

  Kappa calmed down: “I can neither interview them nor take photos of them, so how reliable do you think the final report will be?”

“It’s impossible to ask the warden to be lenient on this matter. I still suggest that you go and talk to your editor-in-chief, Mr. Byron. If you want to investigate, you should first apply to the higher authorities. Otherwise, no matter how big the face is, it is really difficult for us to do it here.” The deputy warden seemed easy to speak, but in fact his attitude was quite firm, and he didn’t give up half a step on important things.

   “Then I take random photos of prisoners and finally say that they are members of the International Equality League. Is that okay? Not even a single photo of a prisoner is really unreasonable.” Capa retreated.

He believes that the editor-in-chief, Byron, also wants to use the report of the prison to expand his influence. When he goes back to report the situation, Byron will definitely apply to the higher authorities and try to conduct an in-depth investigation to make the report more real on the basis of forgery. sex’.

   But seeing the resolute look of the deputy warden, he was worried that the situation would not change if the editor-in-chief Byron stepped in.

In order to avoid going back without doing anything, the editor-in-chief did not apply successfully, and lost the legitimate reason to go to prison, it is better to do our best this time, and then the editor-in-chief got the permission from above. no regrets.

   “Okay, this is no problem, you can shoot as much as you want.” The deputy warden took Capa to the ordinary prison and watched him take the material.

   “Click.”

   “Click.”

  Kappa was filming the material while thinking about ways to contact the arrested members of the International Equality League.

  If you want to get in touch, the first thing you need to do is to dismiss the deputy warden who has been monitoring you, but if you dismiss him, you, an outsider, will not be able to freely enter and exit various closed areas.

   It seems that there is no countermeasure to achieve its purpose.

   “How’s it going?” Half an hour later, the deputy warden asked impatiently.

   Capa, who still couldn’t think of a solution, had to give up: “It’s all done, then I’ll go first.”

   “Walk slowly and don’t send.”

  After returning to the newspaper office, Capa reported the situation to the editor-in-chief Byron, and applied again to go to the prison to interview members of the International Equality League.

  This time, the editor-in-chief Byron lost the excitement. After a moment of contemplation, he arranged for Capa to be busy with other things first, and let the prison report be released first, and the existing materials were not allowed to be used for the time being.

  Obviously, after the editor-in-chief learned of the vigilance in the prison, he immediately realized that even if he asked his superiors for instructions, there was a high probability that it would not work.

   As a matter of prudence, all he could do was to suspend work in this area.

  Backing to his seat, looking at the manuscript that had not been finished several times, Capa fell into thinking again.

   This series of things is too abnormal.

  The fact that the members of the International Equality League were arrested is obvious to everyone. Why did the prison repeatedly block me from conducting interviews, and even a single photo was not allowed?

  Why did Byron, the editor-in-chief, immediately suspend his work in this area as soon as he heard that the prison did not allow contact with members of the International Equality League?

  They seem to be hiding something.

right!

  What are you hiding!

  This feeling is very strong!

  Kappa thought carefully about the prison, the arrested members of the International Equality League, what exactly needs to be hidden from him.

  People of the International Equality League!

   Capa suddenly thought.

  There is only one possibility for the prison to hide from itself, that is, they did not detain members of the International Equality League at all! The so-called arrest of hundreds of members of the International Equality League is all fabricated out of thin air!

   This also explains why there are so many reports in the newspapers, but I can’t see those people even though I am busy with official business!

   Meanwhile, bigger problems arose.

  What is the purpose of their fabricated data?

  In order to give confidence to the people in Laizeinli? Don’t talk about it, they bullied the people like that, without considering the feelings of the people at all!

   Could it be that they want to declare to the outside world that the International Equality Alliance is vulnerable, just like they framed the International Equality Alliance? It doesn’t make sense, if this is the case, there is no need to hide it from him, after all, he is also part of the plan to frame the International Equality League!

  Kappa vaguely felt that he had touched a huge secret.

  This false number does not serve any known plan, it is more like using a simple shell to cover up the inner complex purpose.

   “Patter.”

  A drop of sweat fell on the manuscript paper.

  I am getting deeper and deeper.

  Kappa felt the unknown power and threat.

  He wanted to continue the investigation, but before that, he had to address the safety of his family first.

  My wife and children are all in Laizein, and if something happens to me, they will inevitably be involved. If you want to investigate, collect the truth, and help the International Equality League, you have to send them out of Laizein first.

   “Editor-in-Chief.”

   Capa found the editor-in-chief Byron.

   “What’s wrong?” Byron just hung up a phone call.

   “I want to apply to let my family leave Laizein.” Capa said.

  When they came to Laizein with government troops, their family members were also forced to bring them with them. On the surface, this move is to protect the safety of their family, but secretly it can effectively coerce and control them to do things for the government wholeheartedly.

  If he wanted to arrange for his family members to leave Laizein through proper channels, he had to apply to the editor-in-chief.

   “Is something wrong?”

   “Nothing happened for the time being. I am worried that we will be retaliated by the International Equality League for reporting so many false news.”

  Editor-in-chief Byron smiled: “You don’t have to worry about this, the government has arranged for special soldiers to protect the safety, and the International Equality League can’t do anything to retaliate against your wife and children.”

“I’m really driven to a dead end, who can say for sure what they will do? Especially in Laizein, there is an action team left by them. What if they capture my wife and children and use them to blackmail me? ?” Capa acted as terrified as possible, trying to win the trust of the editor-in-chief Byron.

“Let’s put it this way, if the International Equality League can arrest your wife and children when we are on guard, it means that they can directly attack us. So don’t think so much, instead of worrying about your family, you should be careful point.” Editor-in-chief Byron did not agree to Capa’s application.

   “…Okay.” Capa didn’t push any further, arousing Byron’s suspicion.

   His original plan was to hand over the film containing the evidence to his wife, and ask her to leave Laizein with the child and go directly to Leliste, the main station of the International Equality League.

   Now it seems that this road will not work.
