The New Year's dinner in the Winter Palace in Petersburg is being staged, tonight's Werther has become a sweet spot in the eyes of many aristocratic unmarried women, the young Colonel of the Guard, the secretary general of His Majesty's Chamberlain, the head of the Royal Intelligence Service, the only successor of the Werther family, all kinds of titles, no matter which one is enough to make the family behind those unmarried girls crazy, this is a typical golden beetle son-in-law, who is transferred to that life without worry.

It's just that Werther thinks very clearly in his heart, what he wants to find must be a partner who shares his ideals, and these noble ladies should not take care of it too much, otherwise there will be many problems in the future. Just as Witte had finished talking with another official who had come to make small talk, he was sitting down to rest for a while, when a voice came: "Happy New Year, Vasya!" ”

Witt looked up at the girl in front of him and said with a smile, "Happy New Year, Sasha!" "It turned out that it was none other than Arishadra, the daughter of Belosky, the chief of the palace guard. Kirill Lovena. Beloeva. Werther's greeting made Beloyeva's fair face flush, and Werther wondered why a greeting would look like this.

Time passed minute by minute, and after the two people greeted each other, there was no superfluous word, just standing like that. Finally Beloeva spoke: "Vasya, wait a minute, you, can you ask me to dance?" After saying that, the red on her face became a little thicker, and just as Witte was stunned, Beloeva ran away with a red face.

In contrast to the jubilant atmosphere in the Winter Palace, the New Year was depressing for the burghers of St. Petersburg, and the tragedy of November 21 filled many families with grief. In a dwelling in the Vyborg district of St. Petersburg, the lights were blazing at the moment, and several people were sitting around with a fire burning in the fireplace, and if we were here, we must have known these people - they were the core members of the Red Group, and of course they were meeting here because of the orders that Witte had given them after Ulyanov's exile.

Krupskaya became the convener of this meeting, so she spoke first: "Comrades, according to the instructions of Number 0, we will continue the plan of revenge. The assassination of Goremykin on December 24 was a success, for which a special congratulatory letter was sent to No. 0, and now I will put the congratulatory letter No. 0 first. 'All members of the Red Group: It is reported that on the night of December 24, you successfully completed the assassination of the enemy's Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhang Goremygin, which was precise in plan and bold in action, which not only frightened the enemy, but also expanded the influence of the organization. All members of the Red Group are hereby commended. Number 0'. ”

After Krupskaya finished reading it, the six people present applauded excitedly, and when the applause fell, Krupskaya continued: "Although No. 0 affirmed our last action, we must not slack off and cannot be proud. At the same time as the congratulatory letter sent by No. 0, new instructions were also sent to us, and Comrade Yankinov will announce to you the latest instructions on No. 0. ”

"According to the news from the 0th, we have three main aspects of work to prepare next." Yankinov said slowly: "First, 0 instructs us to continue the operation of assassinating the enemy's dignitaries, to further prove our existence to the enemy, and to continue to expand our influence among the broad masses; Second, 0 instructed us to be sure to safely escort all the commissioners back to Petersburg in batches by the end of the month, and to hide and hide; Thirdly, in view of the current situation of the Red Group, No. 0 asked us to continue to recruit personnel and train the backbone forces, continue to strengthen the strength of the workers' pickets, select loyal personnel to work in the Intelligence Bureau, and carry out a detailed division of labor in the work of the Red Group. ”

After Yankinov finished speaking, Akimov asked: "Is there any specific instruction for the division of work in the Red Group, No. 0?" ”

Krupskaya replied: "According to the instructions of No. 0, the Red Group will be divided into four major departments according to the specific direction of work: Intelligence Group, Action Group, Support Group and Security Group, and the specific departmental responsibilities and division of personnel are as follows: Intelligence Group, responsible for intelligence collection and intelligence analysis, formulating a preliminary action plan for approval by No. 1, and reporting to No. 0 for confirmation, and the head of the intelligence group Krupskaya;

The action group, which is responsible for carrying out operations on the identified targets and cleaning up internal suspicious elements, is headed by Luca Brown. Marschov; The support group, which is responsible for providing support to the group, and is responsible for recruiting and training new members of the red group, and the head of the support group, Akimov; The head of the Security Department, which is responsible for the protection of members of the committee and members of important departments, as well as the training and leadership of workers' pickets, is headed by Yankinov. ”

After finishing speaking, Krupskaya looked at Ershov and Leonid and continued: "According to the instructions of No. 0, Ershov and Leonid will enter the Royal Intelligence Service to work, and the specific work will be personally ordered by No. 0. ”

Ershov and Leonid looked at each other, and both knew that their work would definitely be more difficult in the future. However, the head of the action group, Luka, asked: "Comrade Krupskaya, does No. 0 have any clear instructions for the next goals of the operation?" ”

Krupskaya replied: "This time there is no specific request for No. 0, saying that it is up to us to choose the target ourselves, and report to him to confirm it and then act." ”

"In that case, according to the new division of labor, your intelligence group will provide us with information and a plan of action." Lukka said, "So now you have eyebrows?" ”

Krupskaya nodded and said: "We have now preliminarily drawn up three goals: first, the personal teacher of Nicholas II, the head of the Orthodox Church Administration, Pobedonoszev; the second, Prime Minister Acheslav Previ; The third is Belosky, one of the executioners of the last Winter Palace bloodbath, and now we are making the final screening and determination of the three targets, and we will notify the action team as soon as the plan is approved. ”

While the members of the Red Group were discussing how to give the Tsarist government a New Year's gift, Newitt in the Winter Palace Banquet Hall finally came to his senses after walking for a while in Beloeva, and couldn't help laughing: "What a shy little girl." With that, he walked in the direction that Beloeva had left.

As Beloeva trotted all the way back to where she was sitting, her mother noticed something was wrong and asked, "Sasha, what's wrong with you?" Why is your face so red, is it uncomfortable? ”

Beloyeva's face turned even redder when she heard her mother's question, so she lowered her head, and her mother saw that this made her even more curious, so she asked again: "Sasha, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare mom. ”

Beloyeva didn't know how to answer when she heard this, when a young man's voice came: "This beautiful lady, can I ask you to dance?" Beloyeva looked up at the sound and saw Werther smiling at her, while her mother beside her was flushed, obviously overjoyed, and the other single girls in the vicinity looked at Beloeva with all kinds of emotions, envy, jealousy, and resentment.

After Witt walked slowly, stretched out his hand and bent down slightly, and said the words, he didn't get a reply, but Witt, who didn't want to be a monkey and be watched, had to say again: "This beautiful lady, can I ask you to dance?" ”
