Twenty Seven Years

  Chapter 503 Public Opinion War (24)

  December 5th

  The comrades at the terminus who had received the film had begun to rush back to Leliste, while the action team still in Laizein was working hard to rescue Capa.

The detailed plan for rescuing Comrade Capa was drawn up more than two days ago. Although Capa’s physical condition is not optimistic now, additional doctors and medicines are needed, and some rescued comrades are at risk of being infected, but the overall plan framework Unaffected, so you can still proceed.

  That night, a few moving figures appeared around the seemingly normal hospital.

  The figure worried about the government soldiers patrolling the street, and patiently kept silent in the corner and in the dark.

  Inside the hospital, the two soldiers on duty in the ward were drowsy, completely unaware that Bella was giving Capa his final instructions.

"I'll go out later to lure the soldiers to leave. Under normal circumstances, other comrades will come to pick you up in less than ten minutes. If we haven't returned within fifteen minutes, it will be an accident. Whether it's the newspaper office People or people from the government ask you about the situation, and you just say that you don’t know. In this way, even if we fail to rescue this time, they will only think that we have taken a fancy to the weakness of this link and want to try to arrest you. If so, I won't suspect you."

   "I have nothing to do with it..." Capa could feel the danger, "The body is... bad enough, and following you is also... a hindrance... If some of you sacrifice because of me, it's too worthless..."

"Don't think too much, we have a meticulous and complete plan, everyone will be fine, and you will be able to see your wife and children soon. The reason why I told you the worst possibility is to ensure you safe." Bella showed a slight smile to comfort the restless Capa.

  In fact, Comrade Bella did not experience too much danger in Orondo City. This time, she was ordered to come to Laizein to carry out the mission, which was also a great challenge for her.

   Naturally, Capa would not resist the chance that everyone is safe and he can reunite with his family, so he nodded slowly.

   "Okay, it's time to start." Bella glanced at her watch, got up and walked out of the ward.

  The dozing soldiers outside the door were startled by the sound of the door opening, and then all looked at Bella.

  Bella gently closed the door and said to the soldiers, "Thank you for your hard work."

  A soldier was about to reply, but before he could speak, he swallowed again.

   "You..." Another soldier looked at Bella's hand slowly stroking his companion's chest, feeling a little dazed.

   "It's too boring to stay here, come with me." Bella acted as charming as possible, hooked her hands to the two, and walked to the side.

   "This..." The two soldiers looked at each other, but soon revealed secret joy.

   They have often expressed their envy to Capa in private, that they can have such a beautiful lover by their side.

   Unexpectedly, the other party would give them a chance.

  As for why they were given a chance, the two, whose minds were full of the next glamorous scene, had no time to think about it.

   Not to mention the job of guarding the ward.

In their opinion, this is the most insignificant point. After all, they have protected Kappa for so long, and the International Equality League has never seen half a shadow. Now that Kappa is still sick, no one dares to approach him. Someone can come to the door The odds become even more remote.

   "There seems to be no one here." Bella walked to a dark ward not far from Capa, looked inside, and opened the door directly to enter.

   "Or go to a safer place?" suggested the soldier who followed the closest.

  He has the impression that there are people in every ward here. Even if there is no one, too much movement will attract attention. It will be troublesome for them to be blamed for their dereliction of duty.

  But Bella had already gone in, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he didn't say any more, and walked into it with another companion excitedly.

"do not move."

  Just when the two thought their dreams would come true soon, two guns were placed on their heads respectively.

   "Don't, don't, I didn't do anything, don't kill me!"

   "I'll give you whatever you want, don't shoot, don't shoot!"

  The two of them haven't realized what the situation is, but experience tells them that begging for mercy and showing weakness is the best choice now.

   "Quiet." Comrade Evans in a doctor's uniform turned on the light, closed the door, and looked coldly at the government soldiers.

  The other four comrades from the action team quickly controlled him, tied him up, and stripped him of his clothes.

  The soldier who was **** and squatted on the ground mustered up his courage and looked up at the few people: "You...you are members of the International Equality League? How did you get in here?"

   "How to deal with them?" Comrade Bella stepped forward and asked Comrade Evans who was in charge of the command.

  Comrade Evans returned a sharp look.

  Bella understood: "Understood."

  The soldiers saw two people wearing their military uniforms, their faces turned pale with fright, and they said anxiously: "You can't, you can't take Capa away. If he is taken away, we will be finished."

"Let us go, can you arrest other reporters? We help you arrest, okay? I promise, it will not make it difficult for you." Another soldier who was still calm tried to adjust his posture, kneeling and begging road.

   Their job is to keep journalists safe.

  Once a reporter is captured by the International Equality Alliance, resulting in a failure in the public opinion war, ten of their heads are not enough to take the blame.

  So the only hope now is to reach a consensus with these people from the International Equality Alliance and take a win-win road.

   It's hard, but you have to try.

   "Do it." Evans said to the remaining two comrades, having no time to talk to these lackeys of the provisional government.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Okay!" The kneeling soldiers realized that the situation was worse than they thought, and the International Equality League didn't care about their lives at all, and shouted while their scalps were numb, "We join the International Equality League! We join the International Equality League! "

   "It may be nonsense, but I still want to tell you, don't think that if you want to join the International Equality Alliance, the International Equality Alliance will have to absorb you. Awakening and being forced to seek refuge are two different things." Evans said.

   "We are not forced, I, I really want to join the International Equality Alliance, I also yearn, yearn for equality, I, I, I have long been, you must believe me, I really—"

  Evans turned his back, looked at the two comrades in government uniforms, took off his doctor's uniform, and revealed the patient clothes inside: "Get ready to go."

"Yes."

"Yes."

  The two comrades were arranging the clothes, while Bella, who had some knowledge of the original owner of the clothes, repeatedly emphasized the information.

  Evans came to Capa's ward alone first.

   "Comrade Evans..." Capa settled down.

  Evens is obviously much younger than him, but he always has a calm temperament, which makes people have to calm down.

   "The plan is going well, don't worry." Evans said.

"thank you all…"

"We should be the ones to say thank you. Thank you for your dedication during this time. The next thing you have to do is to take care of your body and wait for the reunion with your loved ones." Evans stared at the time on the watch, "Time is running out, just Not much to say, I hope we will see you next time."

   "...good." Capa looked forward to working with these tenacious revolutionaries in the future.

   After meeting with Capa, Evans, Bella, and two comrades who put on government army uniforms came to the side to stand by.

  After Capa was taken to the ward where they were by two other comrades, the plan officially entered the second stage.

   Wearing a mask and pretending to be sick, Evans walked out of the hospital with the help of three people, and was quickly spotted by government soldiers patrolling the street.

   Facing the patrol's questioning, the group of people who had made adequate preparations responded calmly. In the end, not only won the trust of the other party, but also successfully contained them in the name of needing to send 'Reporter Kapa' to another hospital immediately.

The patrol force of the provisional government on the street was temporarily emptied, and another team arranged across the hospital took the opportunity to pick up Capa who was still in the hospital in the dark, and placed him in a nearby shop without anyone noticing. Wait for dawn before making the next transfer.

  On the other side, Evans, Bella, disguised as Capa, and two comrades in government uniforms found the car surrounded by patrols.

   "Get in the car and hurry over, we will talk about it if we need it." The captain of the patrol team kept a few meters away from Evans and his party for fear of being infected.

   "Thank you." Bella opened the car door first, helped Evans sit in the back seat together, and the other two comrades sat in the driver's and co-pilot's seats.

   "Let's go." Evans urged with his head down after the car door closed.

  The comrade in the driving seat immediately started the car and drove away from the block.

   "Comrade Capa should be safe, right?" Bella asked.

"We fought for a 20-minute gap, which is enough for them to take Comrade Capa away, and then it will be the task of other comrades." Evans is relieved, "The most important thing for us now is to ensure our own safety, as late as possible A little exposure."

When they left the hospital, they greeted the real doctor, and the soldiers on duty in the ward will come to the hospital at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, that is to say, before ten o'clock, as long as there is no accident on their side, Capa's disappearance should be resolved. won't be detected.

After ten o'clock, the provisional government learned that Capa was missing, and it was too late to start a comprehensive search, because at dawn, other comrades would arrange for a truck to secretly transfer Capa to the General Liaison Office, and stay with Verak and the others. Together. At that time, even if the provisional government turns the hospital upside down, it will not get any useful clues.

   "It's really a bit tricky." The comrade who was driving sighed.

  The patrols who had fooled a block did not let them relax, because there were such patrols in every block of Laizein, as long as they entered the other party's jurisdiction, they had to accept the other party's inspection.

  The most troublesome thing is that when their whereabouts are completely exposed to the eyes of the provisional government, no matter where they end up, they will be locked in a rough location, which is not conducive to their concealment and transfer.

   Fortunately, the plan took this issue into consideration, and there will be dedicated comrades to meet them and help them complete the transfer before they are exposed.

  What they have to do now is to move towards the designated location and ensure that no suspicion is aroused during this period.

Theoretically speaking, the more patrols you encounter and the more interrogations you encounter, the more likely you will be exposed. Therefore, in order to minimize the risk in this regard, the block they finally went to was actually very close to the starting point. At most two patrol teams of the government army were encountered.

   Ten minutes later, they encountered the first patrol.

  The other party stopped the car expressionlessly after seeing the logo of the government army and the flag of the government army on the car.

"Hi, my name is Lena, and I'm in charge of protecting the Kapa reporter of the Laizein Daily News." The comrade in the driver's seat got out of the car wearing a mask, and showed the ID of the original owner of the clothes and the hospital procedures to the patrol team who intercepted them. Shan, "He contracted an infectious disease when he went to the slums to collect materials. He has been treated in Wadsworth Hospital for the past few days but there is no sign of improvement, so he has to go to another hospital for re-diagnosis and treatment."

  The captain of the inspection team took the ID and looked at it, and then used the flashlight to look through the hospital's diagnosis and procedure sheets: "Which hospital do you want to go to?"

   "Wifred."

   "Do you have an acceptance letter from Wilfried Hospital?"

   "No, this is an emergency arrangement. You can call Wilfred Hospital or Mr. Byron from the Lazein Daily News to confirm." Comrade said generously.

  Of course they didn't get in touch with Wilfred Hospital, let alone persuade Byron to do something for them.

  Dare to make such a proposal, mainly to alleviate the suspicion of the other party, otherwise it is easy to make mistakes if you hide it.

  The captain of the inspection team passed the comrades who came forward and walked towards the car.

  The comrade of the co-pilot nodded to him, and Evans in the back seat closed his eyes tightly, with a painful expression on his face.

   "Who is this?" The patrol captain asked Bella, who was taking care of Evans in the back seat.

   "This is Ms. Bella, Mr. Capa's wife." Comrade replied.

   "Oh." The patrol captain walked around the car.

   Seeing that the captain of the inspection team did not ask briefly before letting him go, Evans secretly felt that something was wrong. Taking advantage of the other party's unpreparedness, he winked at the comrades standing outside and signaled him to use another way to deal with it.

  The comrade immediately urged solemnly: "Mr. Capa is an important person in the battle of public opinion. He cannot have any problems. He must receive proper treatment as soon as possible. If you have no problems, please let him go immediately."

   "Let's go." The captain of the inspection team liked this trick very much. The more anxious the other party was, the less he dared to neglect.

  The soldiers who received the order retreated to the sides, giving way to the cars.

   "Thanks for your hard work." After dealing with the inspection team, the comrade sat back in the car, feeling cold as soon as his wet back leaned against the back of the seat.

  He pretended to be calm, drove the car away from the inspection team, and continued to move towards the pick-up area: "That group of people is quite vigilant, if they let us take off our masks to check our identity, it will be troublesome."

  Evans stared at the rearview mirror: "The inspection team generally doesn't check our own people very carefully, as long as we behave naturally enough."
