Twenty Seven Years Chapter 160

  Chapter 160 Happy Cooperation

"...The matter of gold must be implemented as soon as possible. After all, if the outside negotiations fail, this is the only way for you to be free." Lecter was silent for a moment, probably thinking about how to reply Veraker, "It will take a long time No one can guarantee that there will be any accidents."

Verac, who had seen Lecter through, didn't expose him: "Do you think I'm being lazy? I'm just looking for something to be lazy? Is it possible that I have feelings for this place? Is it possible that being a prisoner here is better than living outside? There is no such thing in the world. Anyone who wants to know the whereabouts of gold more than I do, you who just want to be a prison warden are even more unqualified, because that means freedom and life to me. I can only talk about other things if I live and leave here. "

   Lecter may have felt tired, so he sighed, and it was rare for him to give in: "I was impatient..."

Verak let out a long sigh of relief, calming down his dissatisfaction on the surface, and comforting Lecter in turn: "Don't be in a hurry, it will only mess up the situation. I know it in my heart, I will definitely seize the opportunity, and I will always come when I need your help." Looking for you."

   "Well...it's nothing, you can go back." Lecter closed his eyes, hunched his back, and looked exhausted after this period of struggle.

   "Well..." Verak responded, and before leaving, in order not to arouse suspicion, he specifically told Lecter, "Please let me know any new news from the Equality Council."

   The tired and irritable Lecter didn't answer, but nodded heavily.

After Verak returned to the cell, he was about to report the situation to Keating, but Keating handed him a letter: "If one day we leave, you can help me deliver this letter to the person in charge of the Equality Society." .”

   "This is..." Verac didn't understand why Keating wrote to the Equality Association.

"My letter of recommendation." Keating explained, "I am very interested in the Equality Society. If we can get out of here, I would like to work with that group of young people. Then you will be my introducer and help I put this letter into the hands of the group."

   "Okay!" Verak put the letter away, "I didn't expect you to join them with me..."

   Keating's move to join the Equality Association had a great impact on Veraker.

  This shows that Verac used "Theory of Equality" and his own actual actions to infect other people, which affirmed his efforts during this period. In addition, because he had cheated the Equality Association, he was deeply disturbed about meeting again. If Keating could accompany him to return to the Equality Association, he would be a lot braver.

   "Tell me what Lecter told you again." After Keating handed the letter to Veraker, he asked about Lecter, "You haven't seen each other for several days. He should have revealed a lot of news to you, right?"

   "I really didn't know what to say for a while." Thinking of Lecter's performance on the verge of collapse, Veraker organized his language for a while, and then explained the conversation to Keating clearly.

After listening to Veraker's narration, Keating said thoughtfully: "Unexpected, but reasonable. Lecter usually relies on his father, and he is far inferior to Adel in terms of intelligence, otherwise he would not have made a decision." It's stupid to hold a football game and set up incentives that can't be achieved, and give up a great advantage to Adel."

"I'm thinking, now we should be able to push their fight to the maximum." Verak said his opinion, "We only need to solve the problem of opening the door for the frontal prison escape, and the progress of the alternative plan should be advanced to Pretty much the same location."

"Now there is only a short distance before they officially fight. If their conflicts are intensified, a little carelessness may lead to an early change in the prison." Keating considered that everything was approaching the final step, and the backup plan If they don't control it well, it will directly disrupt their layout, so they decided to act cautiously, "Don't be so hasty to act, in fact, the contradiction itself is intensifying as time approaches the twelfth of next month."

   "That's right..." Verak felt that Keating's words made sense, "Then let's wait until the plan to escape the prison is officially finalized."

   Keating nodded.

"Then what do you think, should we reveal some more news about gold to Lecter? I think we can reveal a little more to him in the next few days. In this way, Lecter will not be completely messed up, and Adel will not be able to sit still." Hold on, you must be worried that I will ask the location of the gold before the twelfth."

   "I think it's okay." Keating had no objection, "You can reveal some clues to him during this time."

Verak thought for a while, and had a bold idea: "Now that I have revealed two clues to him in a row, I feel that there is no information that can satisfy him and will not threaten the safety of gold. Anyway, before the twelfth We will escape from prison, should we just make up a fake news that will take a long time to verify and fool him first?"

Keating shook his head and said seriously: "Verak, I want to leave here as much as you do, and I put almost all my hopes on this escape, but even if we have some advantages, we can't blindly trust ourselves We must be able to leave. If the prison escape fails and Lecter finds out that what we said is false news, what will we do then?"

   "...You're right, then I'm trying to find a way to reveal a real clue." Verak knew that spreading false news, if the prison escape failed, the consequences would be disastrous, but he didn't care anymore.

   Today Lecter told him that the negotiations between the Equality Council and the government were not pleasant. Although he knew it was false, he still couldn't help worrying about the situation outside.

  He hopes that the Equality Association and the government are false cooperation. The so-called peace talks are just to appease the government, and then take the opportunity to find an opportunity to manipulate at the World Expo, publicize the concept of the Equality Association, and awaken more people.

   But under this possibility, he will also become extremely dangerous.

On the day when the negotiations between the Equality Council and the government broke down, he would have no more to rely on. At that time, Lecter would not be able to release him because of the gold, and he would not be able to reveal the location of the gold. In a helpless situation, he was brutally revenged. Even if it wasn't like that, without the blessing of his special status, he wouldn't be able to create any more opportunities to escape from prison, and he would spend his whole life here.

  So, he didn't care how Lecter would treat himself who spread false news after the prison escape failed.

  This time, it was also the only prison escape. If he failed, he would really have no chance to leave again. It would be meaningless how Lecter treated him at that time.

"Continue to think about the escape plan." Verak, who was unwilling to imagine himself in the worst possible way, changed the topic, "According to our plan, after the riot, we can subdue more than twenty prison guards and block the guards on the square. There are more than 30 prison guards here. In addition to civilians and other positions, there are about 300 prison guards. They work in two shifts, with 150 people in each shift. That is to say, we are using various means to solve the problem. After 60 prison guards, you need to face 90 prison guards in a short period of time, and after a long time, you will face 240 prison guards."

"That's why we absolutely can't wait for the prison guards who are on shift to come down from the second floor. We won't have many weapons after the riot, and we can't fight against so many prison guards in terms of firepower." Keating estimated the time it would take for the prison guards on the second floor to rush down from receiving the news. How much time does it take, "It takes at most two minutes for the resting prison guards to regroup and form a combat force. We must either break through the seven doors leading to the exit within two minutes, or we have to find a way to block them."

   "The gate can't be opened within two minutes, let's think about how to block them..." Verak said, "This is still a test of our cooperation."

  In the current plan they have set up, when the prisoners riot, they need to be responsible for blocking the gates of the square along the way, preventing nearly forty prison guards standing guard from coming out. Break through all the way towards the exit and seize control of as many doors as possible. Go all the way to the work area and solve dozens of prison guards in the work area, so that all prisoners can be liberated.

  The three parties acted at the same time, and everything broke out in a flash. Verak and the others were already worried that there would be problems in coordination. For example, the riots started before the first batch of prisoners had left the square. When the time comes to block the gates of the square, some prisoners will not be able to get out. If they are not blocked, the prison guards on guard will also come out.

   Now they still need to separate out a group of people on this basis to block the small group of on-duty prison guards who came up from the first and second floors of the basement at the stairway, and 150 heavily armed rest prison guards who came down from the first and second floors.

  The pressure is too great.

   This is almost impossible.

   "So we still need to select a reliable backbone. When you escape from prison, you and Dawn can't just rely on you and Dawn to take the lead. Four forces riot at the same time. The two of you can't take care of it at all." Keating said.

"Well, during this period of time, I will pay attention to whether there are suitable candidates, and then I will pick out a group of people with Dawn." Verak recalled, there are indeed quite a few outstanding prisoners among the prisoners, especially after After the football game, many people feel alive again.

  October 31st

  Verak and Dawn began to screen personnel, planning to select a group of backbones first, and assign the four-way tasks well. When the prison break is launched, these backbones will share part of the pressure for them and take on responsibilities that they can't take care of at the same time.

  November 1st

Verac met Lecter in the infirmary after lunch, and revealed to him the third clue about gold. Lecter was so confident that he quickly called his father and asked outsiders to verify the information. Consciously or unintentionally, the news reached Adel's ears.

   Knowing that Veraker had revealed gold news to Lecter again, Adel couldn't sit still as expected, so he directly dismissed Veraker from his job that afternoon and called him to the office.

"I heard that you reported the gold news to Lecter again, didn't you?" During the previous meetings, Adel acted calmly in front of Veraker, as if everything was under control. This time, when he heard the news, it was difficult for him to suppress his anger. Ever since Veraker entered the door and sat down in the living room, he didn't show a good face.

   "Yes." Willak admitted.

   "Do you still remember our agreement in the football match?" Adel asked Veraker, "I will help the prisoner win the football match for you, and you need to report the new golden information to Lecter later."

Veraker knew well that this agreement was not his real motive to help the prisoner win the game, but it was meaningless to expose it at this time, and he lowered his head: "But you didn't say how long it will take, I think since the football game It was a week after the results, which is long enough."

   "The average interval between you reporting the golden clues to Lecter in the past few times was one week, and this time you waited for a week. Do you think you are procrastinating?" Adel stared at Veraker.

Veraker was stared at by Adel for the first time. He felt uncomfortable and straightened his back involuntarily: "You are a bit of a rascal when you say that. If you want to count the time before the game, the golden clues reported this time are different from the last game. , let alone five days late. Moreover, you haven't looked for me since the end of the game, but Lecter has been putting pressure on me, so it's good that I can delay this for a while.”

   "Do you think it is difficult for you to delay for a few days, or to help your prisoners win the football game?" Adel said coldly.

"You have to understand me too." Verak could only scold Adel inwardly for being shameless, and used this reason to put pressure on him by posing as a victim of brutal deception, "Lecter told me that the current situation outside Very pessimistic, the negotiation between the Equality Association and the government is not pleasant, and it may not be long before the negotiation fails. I can no longer rely on the Equality Association, and I can only ask for the location of the gold if I want to leave here."

The matter had already happened, and Adel didn't want to go too deep into the matter, so as to freeze the relationship with Verak. He eased the tense and serious atmosphere, and poured a cup of coffee for Verak: "He lied to you, as far as I know , There is no news about the negotiations between the Equality Council and the government. This time I can let the past go, but I hope there will be no next time."

   "Really?" Verak pretended to be relieved.

"I didn't ask to cooperate with you, and I didn't ask you to disclose the news of gold to me. This is already quite tolerant to you. You should also abide by the most basic promises. I hope that if you make any new progress, you will It needs to be delayed for a while to report to Lecter." After pouring out the coffee, Adel picked it up and handed it to Veraker himself, "This should not be difficult to do, if there is any problem, such as Lecter putting pressure on you, you can always Come to me, and I will restrain him."

   "You should just give me a clear time, how long I need to delay, and when do you think it is not too much time for me to report to him again, it is considered as keeping the promise." Verak asked.

   "Don't disclose it until the 12th of next month." Adel gave a time.

"Okay." Verak took the coffee, "Then I'll do as you said, no matter whether I can find new clues about gold before the twelfth of next month, I won't reveal anything to Lecter. If he keeps putting pressure on me, I'll come to you, if you can't solve it, I'll tell him, then don't blame me."

  Adel smiled: "Don't worry, there is nothing I can't solve. I hope you and Lecter will have a pleasant cooperation."
