Chapter 19 Chapter 18 The First Time I Did Something Bad
Two hours later, Naike and Daoge arrived at the commissioned location, and it was still four hours before dark.
The Magic Crystal Factory and the Abandoned Factory together occupied an entire block, surrounded by four main roads in the middle, and each factory had three entrances and exits. In comparison, the Magic Crystal Factory is twice as large as the Abandoned Factory, covering an area of about twelve standard football fields, with a total of six workshops, three warehouses and a loading and unloading yard, as well as an office building and a comprehensive service building (canteen and shower room, etc.).
Including the internship period, Zhuang Xuteng worked in the Magic Crystal Factory for more than two years and was very familiar with the situation there. Every road, every corner, and every corner where you can hide in the shade and take a rest have been his figure. In the Magic Crystal Factory, there are two places he dislikes the most. One is the office building that makes you feel inferior to others once you enter, and the other is the five-meter-high wall of the abandoned factory next door.
One side of the wall of the abandoned factory blocks the morning sun.
He hated the wall, because letting the sunlight, which had not been polluted by the city's smog and noise, fall on his shoulders and kiss his face, that warm feeling was Zhuang Xuteng's last comfort before he entered the closed factory. For this reason, he could get up a little earlier in the summer and curse the winter insincerely. He often fantasized about how pleasant it would be if he could live and work with the rise and fall of the sun every day.
Returning to his hometown, Zhuang Xuteng suddenly felt a sense of strangeness. He thought carefully and realized that he had never walked out of the factory at three or four in the afternoon, so he had never seen the Magic Crystal Factory and the abandoned factory at this time.
Hiding in the back alley of the store opposite the Magic Crystal Factory, he paid a silent tribute from a distance; kicked away the empty wine bottle at his feet and let it hug the garbage. Zhuang Xuteng sighed and took the hat from Ge Gongdao. It was a fifty-cent safety helmet, half the price of the one issued by the Magic Crystal Factory. It looks so brittle and light, I guess this hat can't even stop falling nails, let alone empty cans?
"Nake, look at me, am I wearing it right?" Ge Gongdao never stands properly, and he arrogantly poses like a bodybuilder in his work clothes.
"No problem, it's just that you are a little too strong, so you will be assigned to the loading and unloading yard, and this suit is for spray painters."
"What should I do?"
"What do you mean? The Magic Crystal Factory has been closed down, and no one will pay attention to this detail."
"That won't work, details are very important." Ge Gongdao shook his head and said, "What if there is someone in the Magic Crystal Factory? He asked me what I do, and I said I was moving things, wouldn't that be exposed?"
"Well, if you really care." Zhuang Xuteng asked Ge Gongdao to bend down, and then tore off the straps on his shoulders and the pockets next to his upper arms. "Okay, that's fine."
"It's just the straps and pockets that are different? Why is there such a difference?"
"I don't know." Zhuang Xuteng shrugged and said, "I'm ready, how about we set off?"
The two people's plan is to find a way to climb over the wall from the Magic Crystal Factory to the abandoned factory next door, so as to conduct reconnaissance before the time specified by the commission, to see what is going on inside first, so as to have a better idea.
At this time, Dao Ge showed his experience. The two people first took a car and passed by Dao Ge's recent foothold, where they picked up a large bag, a set of clothes and a folding ladder. The large bag contained Dao Ge's "mercenary equipment", which was kept secret and not shown to Zhuang Xuteng. The clothes were the work clothes of the Magic Crystal Factory, and they didn't expect it to be useful. The two changed their clothes opposite the Magic Crystal Factory, and carried the ladder one after the other, and walked straight to the west gate of the Magic Crystal Factory.
Dao Ge had a magical theory. He believed that work clothes, ladders, tool kits and a cynical expression could enter most areas. He has used this method to enter shopping malls, office buildings, freight warehouses, and even the parking lot of PCPD.
"Look forward, don't look back at me all the time." Dao Ge walked behind, holding the ladder and the bag with both hands very steady, showing a relaxed and normal look.
"Dao Ge, the Magic Crystal Factory has been closed. There are not many cars passing by this road, and it is even more impossible for irrelevant personnel to pass by now..."
"If there are many people, it won't be so troublesome." Ge Gongdao interrupted him and said, "It will be conspicuous when there are few people, and it will be more necessary to disguise when it is conspicuous. You have to consider the problem from the perspective of mercenaries and completing commissions. Well, we are almost there, you should pay attention to the surroundings, and tell me if anyone approaches."
The west gate of the Magic Crystal Factory is the main gate for vehicles to enter and exit, and behind the gate is the loading and unloading yard. The trucks powered by steam are all big, and the sliding iron gates that match them also highlight a big word. The quality of its wheels and rails is average. Originally, it only took one person with a little more strength to push and pull this door. Later, when the wheels broke and the rails rusted, it often took two or three people to work together from inside and outside to close the door.
The loading and unloading yard reported to the higher authorities many times and asked for the door to be replaced, but only one maintenance worker came to oil the wheels. It was obvious that they were not prepared to spend money, so everyone had to make do with it. Fortunately, there was an employee door next to the iron door for trucks to enter and exit. You need to enter the guard booth and then go through it.
According to the plan, Zhuang Xuteng stood guard at the door of the booth with the help of a ladder, using his keen observation to pay attention to the surrounding movements and cover Ge Gongdao to go in and unlock the door. Although it was just a lookout job, Zhuang Xuteng was also very nervous. He looked left and right, his heart was pounding, and his legs seemed to tremble.
"Don't be so embarrassing!" Zhuang Xuteng clenched his fists, hammered his thighs twice, and then took a deep breath to relax. It is said that mercenaries walk on the edge of the law. In fact, most of the time, the tasks that mercenaries have to complete are on the other side of the law, and they can be called "bad guys".
Doing bad things goes against the education that Zhuang Xuteng received. He was uneasy and nervous, which was of course a normal reaction. But then again, if the Scarlet Group gave them severance pay and compensation according to the normal process, Zhuang Xuteng could still hold on for a while, at least he could make up the rent and his sister's tuition, and he would have more time to find a normal job.
"Yes, I returned to the Magic Crystal Factory just to get back what was not given to me! They should be the ones who feel uneasy!" Thinking of this, Zhuang Xuteng calmed down completely, his body stopped shaking, and his mind became more focused.
No one passed by on the road, and his focus had no target worth using. He didn't want to be idle, so he recalled the terrain of the Magic Crystal Factory in his mind, and went over the route and plan again this time, trying to get in and out quickly and without any mistakes. Since the Magic Crystal Factory has always implemented a production system in which workers work in two shifts and the factory never stops for 24 hours, there are always people coming and going in the factory area, so the stingy boss did not install surveillance cameras in the entire factory area.
It costs 2,000 euros to buy a camera alone, and the accompanying video control equipment is even more expensive. In contrast, it doesn't cost money to find a few workers to patrol "by the way", and you can enjoy the pleasure of scolding others. Why not do it?
Only the entrances and exits of the warehouse and office building and the surroundings are monitored. Just avoid those places when you go in later. Zhuang Xuteng doesn't think that the surveillance can be turned on now. Who will pay for the operation and maintenance of those equipment in the closed factory? But what Dao Ge said is right. Pay attention to the places that can be paid attention to. Details are very important.
"Hua La La!" There was a sound of metal tools falling to the ground in the room. Then I heard Dao Ge's hum, and he whispered that the pliers were a bit old and not very useful. After a while, there were some sounds of cutting and twisting metal, and Dao Ge poked his head out from inside and waved to Zhuang Xuteng.
"Okay, take the ladder and come in!"
There was no one around, just in time for action. Zhuang Xuteng picked up the ladder and went into the inner room, only to see that the inner door leading to the factory area was unlocked by Dao Ge, and the road was still open. But the appearance of the lock...
"You are really amazing, you actually left the lock on the door frame and dismantled the rest of the door." Zhuang Xuteng wanted to laugh, but was afraid of being slapped.
"I didn't expect the door lock to be so strong, almost as strong as the parking lot of PCPD. Fortunately, they didn't spend money on the door, otherwise it would be difficult to get in!" Dao Ge raised his finger, tapped Zhuang Xuteng's forehead, and said, "I know it's not good enough, but we don't have the money to find someone who is good at sneaking in and picking locks! It's okay to get in, whether you crawl in or fly in! Pull your hat down a little, didn't you say there is surveillance?"
"Follow me, I know where I can be completely unnoticed."
It was still the previous formation, Zhuang Xuteng was in the front, and the two of them carried the ladder and the tool bag and entered the Magic Crystal Factory. They first went north, walked along the path beside the outer wall, then turned east and went to the second workshop first, so that they could use the workshop's building to block the direction of the office building. Then they turned south, crossed the sidewalk between the factory buildings, stepped on the cement road that Zhuang Xuteng used every time he went to eat, and turned east on the north side of the maintenance workshop. If you keep walking along this road, you can go all the way to the bottom of the east wall.
The five-meter-high wall with barbed wire is indeed a trouble, but they are already prepared. Two people unfolded the folding ladder and leaned it against the wall. The remaining distance to climb was less than two meters. Considering Ge Gongdao's height of 1.9 meters, he only needed to raise his hand to reach the barbed wire and use wire cutters to cut a gap.
He didn't even have to climb over. Although it was a bit tiring, Ge Gongdao could fully see the situation on the other side by holding the edge of the wall with both hands. But doing so would not get enough information to complete the task.
The ladder was erected, Zhuang Xuteng was holding it from below, and Ge Gongdao had already grasped the wire cutters in his hand. Just as he started to climb up, Zhuang Xuteng suddenly called him.
"Brother Dao, wait a minute, there's something wrong with the ground."
