Writer saves the world

"Let's all have a laugh, don't be so serious, it won't look good when you shoot it."

Wilde poked his head out from behind the camera, unimpressed by the stiff reactions of the guests who lined up for group photos.

"Expression management is what everyone is best at. Don't be so sad, like we abused our customers."

Under Wilde's command, the guests reluctantly twitched the corners of their mouths and gave him a smile—if it weren't for the situation being stronger than others, these transcendents have fully shown them the determination and means of betrayal to them during this period, and they would never so cooperative.

It’s not worth being forced to brainwash by Orwell just to take a picture. [1984] not only has the effect of brainwashing, but also brings a strong mental impact after being activated, making them still dizzy and headache after breaking free from the numbness of brainwashing. His thinking was so sluggish that his head was stuffed with glue, he couldn't respond to what others said, and it took him several days to get his lost brain back.

On Nevernd, where the lack of medical care and medicine depends entirely on Wilde's portrait, no one wants to suffer so much because of a trivial matter.

The guests smiled reluctantly. Fortunately, the politician's smile standards have already formed muscle memory on their faces. When the corners of their mouths are raised, the whole face naturally puts on a smile that should be - cordial and enthusiastic without losing self-confidence. Comparing their soaring white hair and dark circles under their eyes carefully, it is completely impossible to see the situation in which they were coerced and hijacked.

Because of eating and drinking and sitting in the conference room for a whole day every day, many people's stomachs are rounded.

Wilde looked at the viewfinder frame and nodded with satisfaction, "That's right, everyone hold on!" He adjusted the camera angle again and pressed the shutter button, "One, two, three! Very good! Let's take another picture!"

"Look here! One! Two! Three!"

In the photo, someone is secretly making small movements.Wilde saw it, but he didn't expose it. It is good for both parties to keep the guests in proper contact with the outside world. It can keep the degree of life and death in the battle within a controllable range, although they have home court advantage on Verne's island , but if it is true that the transcendents of various countries unite to fight with them, they will not be able to withstand much time.

Not only do guests need to keep in touch with the outside world, they also need to keep in touch with the outside world. Even if they are surrounded by elites from all over the world, thanks to them, the communication signal is a bit rubbish compared to Ever Dark Island, and there are people outside who will help They get this thing done.

So this group photo of the heads of state sitting in a row, like some kind of large-scale international conference, together with the press release they wrote in advance, appeared in the early morning of the next day on the well-known reporters of the major news groups and quite influential on the Internet. Self-media people's desk.

Instead of an anonymous letter, the original seven transcendents who participated graciously signed their names at the end of the press release.

Without Rimbaud, Rimbaud joined in from the very beginning to get their help to deal with Verlaine. He didn't have such a strong desire for peace, freedom, and of course he didn't sacrifice his great consciousness. It's just the intelligence and powerful combat power in his hands, and it doesn't require Rimbaud to be their real companion.

But the seven people who betrayed at the beginning had nothing to hide, and no family or friends to worry about. The plan has reached the edge of a cliff where there is no chance of turning back. They think that exposing themselves to the public is the most beneficial way to advance the plan. , and did so without hesitation.

The media people who received the letter didn't need to check carefully, just ask a few informants at random, and they can learn from various channels who they are and what their identities were in their respective countries.

One stone caused a thousand waves.

The reporters swam in like sharks smelling blood, and there was a gluttonous feast in front of them that could keep them carnival for several years, but the delicacy might be wrapped in poison, and every grain of food might be implicated with something they couldn't afford to mess with. giant.

To resist the pressure and take the risk of putting this news where it should be, or to obey the government's hush-hush order and act as if you didn't see the front page headlines that were sent to you?

New words were written on the blank pages, Erye Tingming made a decision on behalf of the journalists who were in a dilemma.

[No media will miss this explosive news. 】

[No matter what their position is, or how they comment on this incident, they did not hesitate to use the name of the traitor to fill the headlines of the news. 】

[The most remote and desolate area with no information has known the name of every traitor, and the people who care the least about the political situation are talking about this matter-there will be no more shocking news than this in the past few decades . 】

【after all……】

When all the headlines in every newspaper and magazine are publishing the same thing, when more than half of the people in the world are attracted to this thing, rumors spread and public opinion ferments uncontrollably overnight, even if It is as huge as a state machine, and there is no way to catch a chicken from it that can kill chickens and monkeys, so that everyone won't say they don't want to watch it.

The more he jumps up and down to seal someone's mouth at this time, the more he proves that he lacks confidence and is short of breath.

If the news cannot be blocked, the government can only try its best to control the direction of public opinion, and maintain the government's majestic image under the predicament of the leader being hijacked. People will be completely confused.

Journalists are also cooperating with the government's request to guide public opinion. They don't really want to fight against the state apparatus. Hereby dedicate a great career awareness.

Under the pens of these masters who play with words, the same content can also change into different meanings and connotations, black can become white, good can also be written as bad, not to mention the traitors are full of pigtails and hands-on. First.

It only takes a little bit of wordplay, and the Transcendents who have held the heads of state hostage have become the most terrifying and vicious terrorists in history, even though they promised in black and white in the press release that they would not kill anyone guests - as long as a peace treaty is reached and the war ceases, every hostage will be returned intact.

There is nothing wrong with their desire to stop war, but the use of violence and coercion is a worse evil than war.

Regardless of whether such logic is really justified or not, people's ideas will also change with the change of public opinion.Insulting and belittling have become the new political correctness. Betrayers are denounced as terrorists, sinners, and even demons. The tasks they have performed have been dug out and become evidence of violence and viciousness. Type in the name of any betrayer on the Internet. Name, you can search for countless vicious curses that have been implicated in the eighteen generations of ancestors.

"Those people are horrible," people say after dinner. "They deserve to go to hell."

Every word they spit out is like a venom sword, painful and sharp piercing into the flesh and blood.

The transcendents isolated on the island cannot see the curse and the rave reviews, but even if they see it, they will be fine.Occasionally, in their free time, they would chew compressed biscuits while guessing what kind of infamy they would bear in the future, and the tragic ending after the war was now clearly visible.

Erye Tingming said to let them rest assured that he would take care of it. The transcendents nodded and agreed as if they believed him in their dreams, but they were discussing how to deal with their future affairs behind his back—Wilde made them swear that they would take care of their own affairs. The body was incinerated and ashes were thrown into the sea, so that he could follow the tide to go wherever he wanted.

Whenever this kind of time Verne never speaks, he doesn't like this topic, he just gnaws on the biscuits like a hamster working hard, and the transcendents also indulge the children's over-idealization and frustration of being hit, but they never talk about it Avoid Verne.

Verne always had to accept that the story would not have a happy ending, being the youngest—perhaps the only one of them who would survive to see for himself a future without war.

Even Miss Lagerlof, who loved Verne the most, hardened her heart and refused to look at the boy's helpless and desperate eyes like a puppy in a rainstorm.

Verne's last hope can only be pinned on Erye Tingming who has given them the promise. He is probably the only person among all who believes in Erye Tingming's promise, and believes that they will really have a future-without notoriety and Sin, there will never be a future of separation and pain on the Nevernd.

Erye Tingming responded to his wish.

In mid-November, the latest issue of "Zhengming" arrived as scheduled along with the cold wave of winter.

The cover of the magazine is a black and white pen sketch, in which seven people are arguing about something, some are smiling, some are angry, some are sitting silently, and some are staring blankly at the audience outside the picture, It's like a silent interrogation, but also like a saint-like compassion.

Without any superfluous words, everyone who saw it felt the oppressive atmosphere that was almost breathless. On the inside page, there was a name they are all too familiar with these days——O.Henry , Orwell, Wilde, Heine, Lagerloff, Cervantes, Verne.

The seven who betrayed.

"Zhengming", which was thinner than before, was suddenly so heavy that people dared not turn to the next page.

It was the first story written by O. Henry, who named the story a word he once regarded as a nightmare.

"Hero".
