Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

Chapter 241 The Smell of Vodka

There were constant whispers of Russian coming from both sides of the room, and the air was filled with the aroma of vodka.

Burly soldiers stood in front of several private rooms, their arms crossed, warily scrutinizing everyone who passed by.

"Excuse me... let me borrow it..."

Li Aiguo seemed not to have recognized their identities. He pushed aside a scarred soldier who was blocking the road and walked straight past them.

The scarred man frowned and was about to explode when his companion beside him held him back.

"Comrade, according to our country's regulations, you must apologize if you knock someone down."

“I can speak Chinese, but I don’t know Russian.”

"Sorry, my Chinese is not very good."

"I told you, I was the one who provoked you first."

“Well, good luck to you.”

Facing the helpless stares of two soldiers,

Li Aiguo walked through two soft sleeper cars and just as he stepped into the third car, he was suddenly hit hard on the shoulder.

“Shh…it’s me!”

His muscles tensed instantly, and he turned around quickly, clenching his fists as if to fight back. Seeing that the man was Lao Hei, he slowed down his strength and slowly lowered his fists.

"what happened?"

"Keep your voice down. The target is in the third private room ahead."

Lao Hei pointed to the window of the third compartment in the left administrative area. They quietly came to the place connecting to the next carriage, where Lao Mao, Yan Zi, Lao Dao, and their colleagues from the Second Railway Department gathered.

Everyone's face was filled with worry. Lao Hei was the first to speak:

"I'll go over and keep an eye on it."

As the train started, the joints swayed left and right as the rails vibrated. Li Aiguo leaned against the carriage and asked:

"Team leader, what's going on? You said you'd start the action after you get on the train?"

“It’s getting complicated.”

Old Cat frowned and said in a deep voice, "The target is in Box 3 right now. According to intelligence, he is a reporter from TASS, Belinsky."

"Reporter!?" Li Aiguo's heartstrings suddenly tightened.

As journalists, their professional characteristics are very sensitive, especially now that they have a good relationship with the big country, but the party itself has some plans for the oil in the Gobi Desert. If they have intelligence, intervening in advance will cause many inconveniences.

Two members of the Second Railway Division continued, "When we discovered the presence of reporters, we immediately contacted the ground. However, due to the short time, our information was limited to this. According to intelligence, Belinsky was originally scheduled to cover the Spring City Games, but he left early the night before the games, citing a sudden stomach ailment as the reason that he had to return to the country immediately."

...

"Belinski's identity is unusual. Even if we file a record with the foreign affairs department, we have no way to start. It's better if everything goes well. Otherwise, we must catch Liu Chunjing and Pang Pingfu quietly without arousing his suspicion."

Lao Mao pulled out a cigarette, took a deep puff, and spit out the instructions from his superiors.

The goal is clear, but the problem is that solving this goal will involve complicated situations. In order to avoid leaving any clues that may expose the intention, a reasonable excuse must be found.

During the operation, it was essential to seek assistance from the train police, but this was a problem because before the operation began, in order to avoid leaks, the members of the Second Railway Department did not notify the K3 train police group.

In the normal situation of civil trains

If colleagues from the Second Department of the Railway Administration present the appropriate documents to the crew team, they can usually get some assistance.

however,

The K3 train is a special train that runs across borders and is subject to strict and unique regulations.

An example is the ban on photography in trains. No one is allowed to take photos, whether they are train attendants or passengers. If you violate the rules, you will be severely punished. The "strict" here is not limited to expulsion from the country, but may even include imprisonment.

At the same time, in order to prevent imposters from infiltrating, it is explicitly required that only orders from the locomotive department in Beijing are considered legitimate. At present, the train has left the Wucheng area and the communication equipment has exceeded the normal communication range. It is too late to contact the locomotive depot again.

Lao Mao took a deep puff of cigarette, and the rising smoke covered his worries. "According to the original plan, we only need to get these three people on board, and then we can arrest Liu Chunjing and Pang Pingfu."

"It was my mistake this time. I never expected Belinsky to intervene at this time."

"The train will arrive in Zamyn-Uud in three hours. We must find them both within the remaining three hours."

They must avoid the sight of the uncrowned king-level reporters, are not allowed to seek assistance from the train police, and must ensure that their goals are achieved before crossing the border.

and...

The train had already started, and even if they caught the people, it would be difficult to get them off the train. This was an impossible task, and the entire team looked more and more serious.

At this moment, Lao Dao was filled with regret, and the scar on his face looked particularly hideous. "Oh! Is it necessary to be so long-winded? I will break into the carriage and catch the man now! I don't believe that the uncrowned king can still entangle with us in this kind of territory!"

He then drew his sidearm, as if ready to take immediate action.

"Stop! Have you forgotten your rules?" The old cat stepped forward, blocking him in front of him, and said in a deep voice. "Your actions may satisfy the current mission, but they also bring greater risks."

"The mission of our group is not to hunt down some criminals, but to create a better working environment."

This old knife also understood this, he was just emotional just now. After this scolding, he lowered his head and said nothing more.

The atmosphere at the connection between the carriages was dull, and the sound of the wheels hitting the rails was particularly loud, as if every collision announced that they were getting closer to the border and closer to mission failure.

At a loss of what to do, Lao Mao came up with a strategy. Maybe he could discard the pass after crossing the border and sneak into the box to kill the target. But then...

Turning oneself in at the local police station in Zamyn-Uud might be a better way out. The situation there is complicated, with violent crimes rampant. As long as there is enough money as collateral, perhaps four or five years of imprisonment can be survived. Just don't provoke the Uncrowned King to interfere.

This is the last option...

At this time.

A beautiful voice suddenly sounded beside the old cat's ear. "Captain, maybe I can think of a way."

The old cat looked at Li Aiguo in disbelief and warned him, "If you really want to rush in and attack them, it's best not to tell anyone."

He had already planned how to escape if he was trapped within Zamyn-Üüd's fence.

Compared with Li Aiguo, Lao Mao believes that he is more qualified to take the lead in the "rescue plan".

"Absolutely impossible!" Li Aiguo straightened his chest and lowered his voice and said, "Have you forgotten? I am a train driver from the Qianmen Locomotive Depot in Beijing."

Suddenly, Yan Zi clapped her hands vigorously and asked with great joy, "Train K3 departs from Beijing. It's rare that you know the conductor?"

Although he did not know the conductor, Li Aiguo explained the story of Zhang Dache to the conductor and driver. "The squad leader has returned from a battle. If we can win his trust, then we may have a chance."

This statement was agreed by colleagues from the Second Railway Department. Their eyes lit up. "Our identities are no longer valid, but with the train driver's 'identity certificate', things will be much better." Lao Mao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "This is the only way to do it now."

"I will go look for Zhang's car right now, and the rest of you can keep an eye on that box."

As he spoke, Li Aiguo walked towards the front of the train, leaving a question: "How on earth did you get into the front of the train?" Because the cockpit of the K3 train needed to be replaced, it was impossible to enter the interior of the front of the train from the carriage.

Li Aiguo responded confidently: "Don't worry, I'm a train driver, how could I not be able to get into the cab?" He disappeared at the door interface with everyone's expectant eyes.

"Well, in order to successfully complete the mission, patriotic comrades risked their lives to carry out the mission, so we should also be encouraged." Old Cat ordered: "Hei Zai, Da Dao, guard the door of the box."

The two of them answered immediately: "Yes!"

"Yanzi, be in charge of observation and vigilance."

"understand!"

After the tasks were assigned, the old cat gazed at the vast mountains and rivers outside the window and whispered, "Patriotic, please don't let us down."

As a train driver, Li Aiguo naturally lived up to his mission.

After passing through several carriages, he successfully arrived at the front of the train. Through the window of the door, he could see the "hook" connecting the front of the train and the carriages swinging left and right as it sped.

This is a popular name, but it actually comes from the technical innovation of Master James. This "hook" cleverly solved the problem of train docking and was soon adopted by railway systems around the world. It was a pity that James did not have the idea of protecting patents at that time, otherwise he could have owned the wealth of the entire railway just by relying on the "hook".

Through the "hook", he passed through the buffer, along the air duct, and finally reached the front of the car. Because there was no precedent for entering from this path, the door of the car was only locked with an ordinary lock, and no one tried to unlock it.

The locks on the railway side are universal. Li Aiguo took out the hexagonal key from his pocket and gently inserted it into the door hole.

Light rotation.

A slight push.

The trunk opened.

The howling wind blew in my face.

Li Aiguo held his collar tightly and walked out of the car against the wind.

This was his first attempt to climb on a moving train.

however,

As a train driver with a perfect driving skill score of 100,

Li Aiguo carried out this task with ease.

He took a deep breath, endured the violent shaking, bent down and grabbed the big hook,

Then use your hands and feet to push forward.
