The smiling waiter who posed for standard business put coffee and water on the table in turn, the middle-aged man smiled and nodded, and gave a mark tip to the girl in the black and white maid uniform, and the girl who felt lucky was busy bending down to thank her, but she didn't know that her open-collar uniform showed a deep furrow when she bent over, almost brightening the middle-aged man's kryptonite eyes.

"You're a big deal. ”

The young man smiled a smile that didn't look so disdainful, and the corner of his eye swept from time to time over the Signal magazine he was carrying—underneath it was a small dentist's mirror, which was visible from behind the side.

They were facing away from the corner, with a window on their right, an aisle and a large empty table on their left, and it was close to lunchtime, and eating was forbidden in the reading room. Most of the people were still waiting for the steaming fries, chicken wings, and Fanta set meals to be baked at the nearby fast food center, and they were the only ones left except for the two shameless bastard boys at the three tables in front of them.

In terms of the place of secret conversation, except for the fact that two flies in youth league uniforms are a bit of an eyesore, it is already very good.

Even so, it is careless.

"It's just a small amount of money, and sometimes a mark of investment will get a good return on top of expectations. ”

The middle-aged man picked up the coffee cup, blew the mist, and quickly wrote a word with his fingers on the misty tabletop.

- To hell with it.

"Indeed, after all, it is a good year to make a fortune. ”

- Emperor!

The moment the young man's fingers finished drawing the exclamation mark, the middle-aged man's face that had been tense finally soothed a little, revealing a gentle smile, and the excitement and joy that were full of excitement turned into slightly trembling water-trail words.

- Welcome to Lüders, comrade.

It is somewhat unpleasant to express joy in words rather than words, but in Lüdes, a place full of informers, political detectives, secret police, such caution is not superfluous. You must know that those secret police, who are known for being neurotic, obsessive-compulsive, and control freaks, are bastards who can even eavesdrop and monitor their garages, bedrooms, and toilets.

Is there a bugging device or camera installed in the corners and ceilings of the reading room, the tables and chairs they sit on, the cups they use, and whether there are people in the distant room who are holding directional sound-setting devices aimed at them, or simply build a mezzanine under the floor and let someone stay inside and use a stethoscope to listen to the conversation of the people on the floor...... Surveillance methods that you can't think of are commonplace in Lüdes.

There is nothing we don't know;

This is the boastful statement of the Imperial Social Order Guarantee Bureau, and it is also a simple statement of the facts.

From domestic violence, neighborhood disputes, student fights, to gang crimes, terrorist activities, almost everything cannot escape the monitoring of various powerful departments of the empire, and sometimes the same person is monitored by several departments, eating, drinking, sleeping and other physiological activities are observed and scrutinized in all directions.

In such a country, it is impossible to be too cautious to communicate about things that will lose your head.

"The passion in my heart is like the most prosperous furnace. ”

"Sky Cavalry?"

"No, it's "Carrier Lightning Strike Team". ”

"Isn't that a bad movie?"

"It's just that the actors' acting skills are not in place, and the visual effects of the big scene are still not bad. After all, it was a dispatch of real troops and equipment, and the battleship played its own role. ”

Disguised as a movie lover, the table is rapidly exchanging information.

There was good news, such as the continued operation of the Underground Cell and the successful development of members and facilitators, as well as news of the recent transfer of the Imperial Guard.

There is also bad news, such as where the team has been detected, which lines of contact are to be abandoned, and which sites and important people need to be moved.

The above is barely a daily life, and the next news is not very pleasant.

In this world, no matter when and where, struggle is always the main theme. The organizations to which these two revolutionaries belonged were no exception.

with the Imperial, with the criminal organizations, with the other resistance groups.

Yes, not all of the Resistance groups are partners in the same direction, and in addition to the various conflicts of personal, ideological and demand, a very real problem also faces all the Resistance groups in the Empire. That is, resources are limited, and in order to survive and continue the struggle under the strict control of the empire, foreign assistance and admiring followers are indispensable. But those foreigners are not philanthropists either, they are all calculating speculators, who will only bet on the most potential dark horses, and bring the most trouble to the empire with the least investment. And those would-be resistance fighters think about similar questions.

So the question is, who is the most worthwhile investment, and who can crowd out or even eliminate other competitors to get help?

A fierce competition for survival began, and the various resistance groups extended their blood-stained hands to their compatriots in order to compete for resources.

Among them are other resistance groups as well as civilians who have nothing to do with it.

-- The Front for the Restoration intends to create explosions and indiscriminate attacks on the sports exchange activities of the Youth League.

- Are they crazy?

The young man almost shouted out the words directly, and subconsciously glanced at the two members of the Youth League in front of him who were laughing quietly.

If you want to market yourself and highlight your self-worth, the easiest and quickest way is to make a big news and attract everyone's attention to you. From this point of view, it is no different from Internet celebrities, they all become topics through some means, and use this to accumulate popularity and money. The only difference is that Internet celebrities attract attention by being funny and cute, while some terrorist organizations under the banner of "freedom fighters" and "people of national revenge" use killing to focus the world's attention.

"The decapitation show of traitors", "Dogs to the collaborators", "Adulterers with the enemy are torn apart"......

Organizations that were afraid to challenge the Empire's military power head-on, and were desperate for foreign aid, found it a good job to attack civilians indiscriminately—causing a riot with very little investment, attracting attention and making the Empire unguardable. However, this time there is a clear difference from the previous actions with the color of "hoeing and raping".

- Those guys want to change the country with power and terror, to exclude the empire and everything in the empire, and to restore the twisted society to its rightful form.

- Crazy.

The evaluation of young people and middle-aged men is this one.

This is no longer a show for foreign aid, but a veritable form of terrorism.

The purpose of terrorism is to control with terror, which is both a means and a means.

For example, if you openly kill a high-ranking official or an economic magnate in the Empire, others will have to keep their mouths shut before they fear that they might be their next target. Only a very small number of people are willing to sacrifice their lives for the empire, and this very small number of people cannot shake the general trend, and in the end, in the frenzy of terrorism, the empire will be overwhelmed and collapsed.

This is the basic logic and strategy of terrorism.

But in this way, the ban on relevant organizations and ideas will become more and more strict, and ordinary citizens will abandon this group of people who can't do anything but kill people and set fires.

Thus began the next phase of terrorism, which turned its target to ordinary citizens, the so-called indiscriminate attacks.

It is different from securing supply lines at all times, otherwise you can only choose to retreat frontal combat. Terrorist activities carried out in cities and towns are easy to obtain supplies, and basically can be carried out semi-permanently as long as there is money.

As long as the killing and injuring of ordinary citizens continues, those citizens who hold aloft the "nothing to do with themselves" amulet, and who shrink into their own small world all day long, have to notice that no matter whether they are angry, sad or pleading, this kind of killing will not stop, and the victims will be mass-produced in a steady stream. If this state of affairs continues, the citizens will point the finger at those in power, accusing the government of inaction and incompetence, and eventually the pressure will accumulate into a revolutionary wave capable of bringing down the government.

The above is the idea of a terrorist organization, and if it were another country, their ideas might have a good chance to become a reality step by step. However, they are facing the Holy Gilmanian Empire, with a powerful military, a highly developed intelligence transmission network, an efficient administrative system, and a huge machine with strong operational power. On top of this, there is also the emperor who has a combination of powerful force and efficient domination alone, and compared to the existence of that kind of horror, whether it is creating an explosion, creating an indiscriminate attack in a crowded area, or a lone wolf terrorist attack, it is not so much a step to subvert the empire as it is the last wail before dying.

They don't have the slightest chance. Except for rallying more civilians around the Empire and the Emperor, no positive results will be produced.

- Do you want to stop them?

- We're continuing to follow up, and the Imperial Bureau of Social Order and Stassie seem to be aware that the reckless action is likely to turn their attention to us.

- What do you want me to do?

-- Try to qualify for the exchange meeting, enter the scene, and if the "National Restoration Front" wants to force action, you must act at the opportunity.

- Understood.

Even without those indiscriminate killers of civilians, humanity would have won this war and regained its dignity and pride. At the same time, it is necessary for other organizations to figure out who the protagonist of Lüdes's underground war of resistance is. Although it is somewhat unpleasant to protect the Empire and the drunken guys who are dreaming of death, there is no need to worry about it.

The young man with a sense of mission in his chest is ready to get up and leave, and then the middle-aged man will also leave, so that this meeting will be considered a successful end, and the next step is to prepare for forgery of documents, prepare for a new identity, and step on the ...... Anyway, there's a lot of work to do.

However, things in life are not always smooth sailing.

The young man who had just stood up suddenly changed his face, and the middle-aged man also tensed his expression as he reached into his arms at the same time.

Marseille and Ricardo are still working hard to learn the great achievements of the country, maybe they are too involved, it may be the relationship of position, and it is more likely that they are laymen, so they don't realize it.

Obviously the lunch time is over, and it stands to reason that there should be a crowd of people entering the reading room one after another, but at this moment it is still just them and the other table of guests.

Outside the closed door of the reading room, a large group of trained fellows approached the reading room with silent steps.
