Chapter 3201: Infiltration plan

~11 min read 2,110 words

At this time, in the port railway freight station, most of the employees had already left work. Except for workers working in the loading and unloading yard, there was basically no one to be seen elsewhere.

In the night, Ye Chen and Li Yalin, led by the person in charge, came to a section of track not far from the unloading station. Later, after the train from Duke Mining uncoupled, the locomotive would stop here for the night.

Ye Chen planned to control the driver after the driver parked the car here, and then get on the train to check the driving record.

Soon, the whistle of a train came from afar. A few minutes later, a freight train full of phosphate slowly drove into the station.

The dispatch instruction came from the walkie-talkie carried by the person in charge, and then the track automatically completed the track change, leading the train to the target platform.

Railway staff and dozens of employees responsible for loading and unloading were already waiting here. As soon as the train stopped, the railway staff were responsible for uncoupling the locomotive, and the loading and unloading workers had already begun to transport the phosphate in the cars out.

Immediately after, the locomotive was guided by the dispatch to drive to the designated parking location.

Ye Chen had already used his Qi to explore, and there was only one driver on the locomotive, and this person had no cultivation and was not a martial artist. I imagine he should not be a member of the Poqing Society.

After the train stopped and the engine was turned off, the driver pushed open the door, held the high boarding ladder, and carefully backed down from it.

Seeing that he had already stepped on the last step, and just needed to jump to the side to get off the car, at this moment, he suddenly felt someone patting his trouser leg behind him. He was startled, looked back, and saw an Asian man looking at himself.

He was angry in his heart, thinking that the other party was playing some prank, and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a blank in his brain. Then, he saw the Asian man gesturing for him to climb up, and his whole person climbed up uncontrollably.

Li Yalin shouted in French from behind, and the other party immediately reopened the door and entered the train's cab.

Ye Chen and Li Yalin followed closely into the cab, and then Li Yalin ordered him in French to open today's driving record.

The man immediately turned on the power to the locomotive again, clicked on a square LCD screen on the side, and opened all the driving record videos of the day.

Li Yalin asked for a moment, and then said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, he ran four trips today, and the last trip went to Duke Mining. Their Moroccan National Railways equipped Duke Mining with a batch of freight cars. Generally, after Duke Mining loads the goods, they pull the empty cars over, and then take the full cars away, so the driver doesn't have to wait for loading. He arrived at Duke Mining three hours ago, hooked up the cars, confirmed the number of cars and the seals, and then left."

As he spoke, he asked the other party to open a video from the screen. After the other party dragged the progress bar, he stepped aside and respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Li Yalin.

In the picture, it is the scene of the train about to drive into Duke Mining's loading yard.

Looking from afar, Duke Mining is located in a vast yellow-white plain. Where the train passes, both sides are Duke Mining's phosphate mining areas, and a large number of engineering machinery are running at high speed in the mining area.

What is strange is that in the extremely large phosphate mining area in the picture, there are many workers building and welding iron towers at least twenty or thirty meters high. The overall structure of the iron towers is similar to high-voltage line towers, except that a platform for people to stand on is also welded in the upper-middle position. From the size of the workers in the video picture, it can be inferred that it can carry at least seven or eight people standing at the same time. At least a dozen such iron towers have been built in the entire mining area, and several are under construction.

Li Yalin paused the picture, pointed to these iron towers, and said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, these iron towers should be used for warning. It seems that they are indeed strengthening security now."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "The terrain there is very flat, and it is all phosphate mining area. There are no high-rise buildings on the periphery. The height of this kind of iron tower is enough to observe very far. If it is matched with professional security equipment, it is really not easy to break in. What's more, from the video, the mining area is still some distance from the core position of Duke Mining."

"Yes," Li Yalin said. "I checked the data on Skyline. According to the scale, they have pushed the mining range to the surroundings by at least six kilometers over the years. Because the mining area is getting farther and farther, they have now built several conveyor belts to transport the raw ore to the refinery. If it is really infiltrated from the periphery, such a long distance, I am afraid it will be very difficult."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and let Li Yalin continue to play. The train in the video is getting closer and closer to the refinery. The entire refinery looks like a prison, surrounded by high cement walls. The top of the wall is hung with barbed wire and high-voltage lines. Although the tracks lead directly to the inside of the refinery, there is also a thick iron fence gate at the entrance of the tracks.

It can be seen from the video that there are many people waiting in battle array outside the iron gate. When the train slowly drove to the front, several people did not open the iron gate, but someone boarded the train head, talked to the driver for a few words, and then let the people below open the gate and entered the factory area with the driver.

The entire factory area is like a huge T-shape. The top is the production area of the factory, and the bottom is three railway tracks and two semi-enclosed platforms used for loading goods.

Among the three tracks, the main line passes through the middle of the two platforms, and the other side of the two platforms is two arrival and departure lines.

In the picture, a train of freight cars has been parked on the left arrival and departure line, and the vehicles in the video pass through the turnout and stop on the right arrival and departure line.

At this time, there are many staff members on the right platform. They are still continuously transporting the produced phosphate to the platform. These goods are waiting for the empty cars transported by the train. As soon as the cars arrive, they have to start loading the empty cars.

However, Ye Chen and Li Yalin both saw their purpose in doing so. These loading and unloading workers are all strong and look like practitioners. They are busy on the platform when the train enters the station. I imagine the real purpose is to keep a close eye on the incoming train at all times, so as not to have enemies invading.

After the train in the video stopped, it uncoupled and began to change direction, and then pulled the train full of goods away from the other side of the arrival and departure line. The whole process did not delay too long, and both sides of Duke Mining's platform always maintained nearly a hundred staff members of various types.

Afterward, the locomotive completed the change of direction via the main line, and after waiting for about ten minutes, it drove away from the factory area.

After watching the video, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh: "This Duke Mining is now as solid as a rock, especially the core factory area, which is built like a prison, and there is such an empty buffer area outside. It is very difficult to get in silently. The only opportunity may be the train."

Li Yalin nodded, and after asking the driver a few questions, he said to Ye Chen: "The driver said that the reason why Duke Mining is so heavily guarded like a prison is mainly because many vicious cases occurred there in previous years. Someone once infiltrated the factory area, killed two of their financial personnel, robbed millions of dollars, and someone infiltrated the factory area and stole precision equipment worth millions of dollars. Phosphate was also often stolen. These cases later became headless cases. Duke Mining was very dissatisfied with the local police's handling level, so they reinforced it themselves."

Ye Chen smiled: "This sounds like a bitter trick directed and acted by themselves. Blind reinforcement will make people suspicious, but artificially creating a few vicious cases in advance can follow the trend and make the reinforcement of defense reasonable and legal."

"Yes," Li Yalin nodded. "I also think this is all their own seeking."

As he spoke, he added: "Mr. Ye, it was already as solid as a rock here, and now they have expanded the defense to the periphery, and they will soon use high-tech equipment. Once these things are in place, I am afraid it will really be impossible to get in."

Ye Chen touched his chin and pondered: "Time is tight, we must sneak in before their new equipment is put into use."

After saying that, he pointed to the Duke Mining staff on the platform and said: "Detective Li, I need a set of work clothes exactly the same as theirs. Is there any way to get it? In addition, we must find a way to delay the shipment time of this batch of goods tomorrow. It is best to wait until the evening to drive. By then, I will follow the delivery train and go in."

Li Yalin heard that Ye Chen wanted work clothes like theirs, so he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Ye, are you planning to hide in the freight car and sneak in?"

"Yes," Ye Chen said. "I will follow the full train in. Even if they have thermal imaging or life detectors, it is impossible to penetrate the metal car and the full goods inside. In this way, as long as the door is not opened and people don't come in, they won't discover my existence. Even if they find out, it doesn't matter. They have dozens of people on the platform. Tomorrow's train has twenty cars. By then, only three or four people will come in to unload each car. By then, I can find the right time to control them, and then mix into them and become one of them. By then, everyone is wearing the same clothes, busy with their own things, and it is night, so there is one more person on the platform, and it should not be noticed."

Li Yalin felt that although the method Ye Chen said was very feasible, the danger coefficient was not low, so he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Ye, if you are discovered inside, will there be any danger?"

Ye Chen said: "As long as they don't have things like close-in defense guns, no one can stop me. Hiding on the train to go in is not because I'm afraid of them, but because I don't want to be discovered by them in advance. If I am discovered after going in, I can stop the loss immediately and kill a bloody path out at any time."

Li Yalin felt relieved after hearing this and said: "Since Mr. Ye is confident, then I will fully cooperate."

After saying that, he carefully identified the clothing of the workers in the video and said: "These should be ordinary anti-static labor protection clothing. It should be available on the market. However, their clothing should be customized. There is a Duke Mining Logo on the front and back of the clothes. This might not be easy to solve."

"It doesn't matter," Ye Chen said. "Just find me the same clothes and shoes. I will find someone to change into a set as soon as possible." ===== CHAPTER 3202 =====
