  Chapter 495 Public Opinion War (16)

   “Discovered?” Verac’s heart tightened, and he stepped up to Henry.

  The other party didn’t say very clearly, but he thought of a lot with just these few words.

  If the Duke of Hall behind Henry can use the word “discovered”, then it means that the government has noticed the abnormality.

The government noticed that there were two consequences of the abnormality. The first was to use the camera’s transaction address to find comrades in other liaison offices. The second was to conduct an investigation around Duke Hall, and finally expose the general liaison office where they belonged. .

  In a word, the exposure of the camera will put the action team in great danger.

Now that reporter Capa has no clue about the matter, he has encountered such a big new trouble, not to mention other people. As the captain of the action team, Veraker has a big head, but he still maintains his calmness on the surface and asks: ” What’s going on? Speak slowly and carefully.”

  The comrades who had been scattered reunited at the table to listen to Henry’s description of the situation.

“Duke Hall is very careful. He forged his identity, used this identity to find a middleman, and asked the middleman to help raise the cameras, but maybe because you asked for too many cameras, the person who raised the cameras and the middleman were both They were arrested, and the government is investigating Duke Hall’s false identity based on their confessions, and I’m afraid it won’t be long before they find out about Duke Hall, causing Duke Hall and a large group of people like you to…” Henry didn’t finish the sentence , but everyone here is very clear about what he wants to express.

   “What’s Hall thinking?” Verac wanted to hear what Duke Hall himself would do.

“The Duke of Hall knows that the government will frantically hold on to the clues for investigation, so it is only a matter of time before the false identity is discovered. He wants to find a scapegoat as soon as possible, and throw all the connections with the false identity that cannot be eliminated to the other party. ” said Henry.

   This is the usual method used by the Duke of Hall, or ordinary nobles.

  For them, the most familiar and sure thing to do is to let others take the place of the crime. Henry himself is such a victim, but Veraker and the others haven’t been exposed yet, and he hasn’t reached the last moment yet.

   “What do we need to do then?”

“Duke Hall said that he is not sure that this will be safe. I hope you can come up with a more secure backup method, which is good for everyone. Otherwise, if something happens to Duke Hall, you will be in danger if you stay here…” Henry looked a little guilty, and didn’t dare to look directly at Verak in the already dim environment.

  Verak has foreseen what will happen if they do nothing and Duke Hall’s method doesn’t work.

   Not surprisingly, Duke Hall will immediately take the initiative to disclose their location to the provisional government for self-protection.

   In fact, there is nothing wrong with doing this. Anyone in this position may do this, let alone the Duke of Hall, who has only an interest relationship with the International Equality League.

  It’s a pity that Veraker and the others are the passive side, and he will never allow the ending of being betrayed to happen.

   “How long does he estimate it will take for the interim government to investigate him?” Verak asked after pondering.

   “Maybe…a week,” Henry replied.

   Duke Hall will definitely consider the possibility of falling to the provisional government first when his method of finding a scapegoat fails. Therefore, the time he explained to Veraker was basically the time he insisted on plus the time needed to betray the International Equality League.

   To put it simply, the time left for the action team is not much, probably less than five days.

   “Has he found a suitable scapegoat?” Shirley asked.

   “It happened suddenly, not yet, but it shouldn’t take long.” Henry said.

  Shirley looked at Veraker: “It would be best for Mr. Hall to find a scapegoat. At worst, we send someone to pretend to keep in touch with this scapegoat for a period of time, so as to divert the attention of the provisional government from Mr. Hall.”

   “Yes, yes, the Duke of Hall asked me to mention this method to you.” Shirley’s method happened to be what Henry was about to say under the order of Duke Hall.

   “You can try to do it first, let Hall find a suitable candidate and contact us as soon as possible to finalize the details.” Verak agreed.

   “Okay okay.”

   “In addition, we will try to think of other ways to ensure Hall’s safety to the maximum extent. If necessary, we will request support from the terminal.” The last half of Verak’s sentence was actually a secret warning to Hall.

  Behind them is the International Equality Alliance. At this time, Hall is not determined and betrayed the action team. Needless to say the consequences.

  Of course, when there is really no way out, Hall can only choose to betray even if he knows that he will be retaliated by the International Equality League in a short time.

  After all, it is better to die late than to be arrested by the provisional government immediately, tortured and publicly executed as an example.

  Verak said this to ensure that after the worst situation arises, Hall can make a prudent and prudent decision to drag the inescapable betrayal to the point where there is no delay.

“Okay, then, then I won’t bother you.” Henry saw that Verac and the others were not woken up by him, but they were not asleep, but he didn’t dare to ask Verac why they were so late. What to do, after getting the required answer, he quickly left the guest room and went to report to Duke Hall.

   “I regret dealing with Duke Hall more and more now.” Spencer didn’t hide his regret, “At the beginning, the interim government search team came, and they didn’t send any signal, and now it’s like this again…”

“At least they helped us get the camera, didn’t they? It’s a good deal for us to be able to play such a value. We can’t rely on others for everything.” In Murphy’s view, although this cooperation is quite satisfactory, it is It is far from being a big loss.

   Shirley didn’t participate in the discussion, and directly asked what Verak meant: “We have to move quickly, right?”

“At the very least, we need to arrange a retreat.” Verak sighed, and the worsening situation made him exhausted, “It’s best if we can think of a safe way to get through the crisis, but we must plan for the worst possibility. Beware of Hall Sell ​​us to the provisional government for self-preservation.”

   “How dare he?!” Connie stared.

“There is nothing to be afraid of. The Provisional Government is close at hand, and the International Equality League is far away. It is inevitable for people like Hall to take refuge in the Provisional Government at a critical moment. Even if we will still be retaliated by us in the end, we can live longer now. The time is undoubtedly worth it.” Verac took a sip of water and patiently clarified the logic to Connie.

“We’re not on the same road at all, and the cooperation came about because of interests. It’s best not to expect that such a relationship can withstand the test of life and death.” Cyril followed up, then turned his head to the bathroom, “It shouldn’t be difficult to arrange a retreat, don’t forget Except for the few of us, no one knows that this room is connected to the room directly below, and with the support of the comrades in the room below, we can easily ‘evaporate from the world’.”

Murphy shook his head: “If it really gets to that point, the whole building will be searched all over the inner, third and outer floors. How long do you think our trick can be hidden under that kind of search? Want to be really safe? , You have to be able to leave the hotel without anyone noticing.”

  Nizan didn’t seem too nervous, but said in a joking tone: “Compared to finding a way to disappear from the hotel secretly, I think it’s easier to help Hall resolve the crisis.”

   “It’s mainly because we are too busy?” Cyril explained the current situation of the action team.

  The action team has more than fifteen comrades who died.

  The rest of the intelligence team and combat team are responsible for taking evidence, spying on newspapers, investigating reporter Capa, infiltrating the interim government, planning harassment operations to attract the attention of the interim government, and ensuring the safety of the martyrs cemetery.

  There are two trends in the matter of the camera.

  First, they sent people to pretend to cooperate with Duke Hall’s scapegoat, successfully drawing the attention of the provisional government, and keeping Duke Hall safe.

   In the second case, the plan failed. The interim government found out that the camera smuggling was related to Duke Hall. Duke Hall had to sell the action team in exchange for a chance to survive.

  No matter what it is, it will take a lot of energy from the action team to deal with it. The former needs to arrange an additional team of people to cooperate with the acting, while the latter requires all members of the action team to change their hiding places and change their activities.

  When these things are piled up, the action team is completely messed up.

   “It is true that there are too many things to do, and now the manpower is stretched. I am worried that if this continues, there will be omissions.” Murphy echoed.

“We now need to reorganize the work arrangement, divide the priority of tasks, remove unnecessary work to reduce the burden, and maximize the efficiency of the action team.” Verac lit a candle again, and looked at their time. meeting minutes.

  The others waited silently.

More than ten minutes later, Verak closed the notebook and said: “The camera has been shooting for a while, and the things that should be and can be shot are almost done. From today onwards, we will suspend the work arrangement in this area, and at the same time, we must remind everyone Comrades with cameras, if the worst happens, as people who have been in contact with Duke Hall’s men, they will be the first to be searched by the provisional government. Be prepared to leave no trace of their addresses, identities, cameras, etc. Make a breakthrough.”

  Everyone took notes.

“Except for the two groups of comrades with cameras that need to do for the next period of time to eliminate hidden dangers, the rest of the combat team will keep the original plan unchanged and continue to carry out harassment and sabotage plans steadily. Get up quickly. We must fight back against the provisional government vigorously, so that the revolutionary momentum in Lezeinli will flourish.” Verak looked at the three members of the combat team on one side.

   “Does the combat team only need to do this in the future?” Confirmed by the combat team leader Cyril.

“Yes.” Verac replied, and then looked at the three members of the intelligence team on the other side, “The intelligence team cancels all probing of the newspaper and all infiltration of the provisional government, and all forces are focused on verifying the identity of reporter Capa. In terms of identity. As long as the reporter Kapa’s family is sincerely investigating the evidence spontaneously, then the follow-up arrangements can be directly around him.”

   “Is it enough to only do this one thing?” Shirley looked up after remembering.

“Yes.”

  Murphy didn’t write anything. After listening to Veraker’s words, he frowned even tighter: “Comrade Veraker, I have a problem. The work assignment is over, but who will solve the problem that Hall is about to be exposed?”

Verac said: “Remember I just mentioned ‘reducing the burden’? Giving up on helping Hall is reducing the burden. It is based on this that I simply dealt with it with the worst consequences. After Hall was exposed, There are two parts of the action team that will be impacted, one part is us, and the other part is the comrades who received the cameras. We live in Hall, and the comrades who received the cameras were more or less exposed during the process of receiving the cameras. Some of my own information. Then directly let these comrades transfer in advance, and half of the trouble caused by Hall’s exposure can be solved.”

   “What about us?” Connie asked.

   “Hall will help us evacuate.” Verak said something almost unbelievable.

“We gave up helping Hall, and asked him to help us evacuate instead? It doesn’t make sense. If he helps us evacuate, doesn’t he still know our location? Then he can still expose us to the government.” Spencer didn’t Understand Verak’s intentions.

“Let me ask you a question first. Since Hall will betray us when there is no choice, then if we create a plan that neither side will offend, will Hall adopt it, or continue to betray us?” Wei Wei Rucker uses questions to help people understand his thinking.

Shirley was the first to see through Veraker’s mind: “You want Hall to pretend to betray you, inform the government of this location, and then ask him to arrange us to another safe place. In this way Hall has given The provisional government made a confession, and it didn’t make any enemies with us.”

  Verak showed a little smile: “Yes, this is the best way I can think of. We have abandoned a lot of complicated work, and can focus on one or two things more without distraction.”

   “Didn’t you say that we can’t put our hopes on others? If we do this, if Hall doesn’t do what we expected, wouldn’t we all be finished?” Connie questioned.

“That’s a good question.” Seeing Connie’s progress, Veraker affirmed her thoughts first, “First, Hall is very unwilling to offend the International Equality Alliance. Adopted. Second, we have been assigned to a new place, and we will still secretly prepare the escape route and take the initiative just like the room directly below is connected here.”

   “Then I’m fine.” Connie had no worries.

   “I remember that Horto Henry also came forward to do the camera thing, right? In this way, if it is discovered, the responsibility for the camera and the hotel can be pushed to Henry.” Spencer recalled.

  Verak said “hmm”: “Yes, Henry is Hall’s last hole card. This time he was forced to transfer the location and deliberately exposed it. This hole card has to be used.”
