I am a super cop

Chapter 2889 Old Miner

In the office, after hearing what the older miners said, everyone finally understood that the so-called slacking off had actually reached a point of insanity.

If a mining area really wants to develop, this kind of operation will not occur. Even if it is a preliminary investment, it will purchase various equipment.

However, from the various statements made by the older miners, it seems that the mining area has no intention of purchasing any large equipment at all.

If this is the case, then what is the point of developing the mining area?
"So you usually..."

"It's just a pretense. The mine has been like this since it opened. I didn't want to do this a long time ago. It's boring. Although the salary is high, we have to live like this every day in this environment."

Before Gu Chen could finish his words, the older miner interrupted him:
"Well, you wouldn't understand anyway. Maybe many workers in the mine prefer this way of working because it's easy and they get paid."

"The leaders said at the time that there were no large-scale development plans, so the focus now was mainly on early development."

“But I know very well that this doesn’t look like pre-development at all.”

"What about this big mine?" Officer Wang asked curiously.

“Oh no.” The older miner waved his hand and said, “This has been mined before. It already existed.”

"You mean, there was already a mine here?" Hearing this, Gu Chen frowned slightly.

The older worker also said slowly: "Originally there was a mine there, and it had been mined for many years."

"The mining was stopped when the minerals were exhausted."

"But in recent years, for some reason, some experts came to explore and said that a new mining area had been discovered nearby, and the scale was much larger than the previous one."

Shaking his head, the older worker continued, "I worked in that old mine when I was young. How could I not know about it?"

"But the geologists say there are a lot of new minerals here, so we can only listen to them. If they say there are, then there are."

"After all, they are experts and we don't understand, so this mine is actually built on the basis of the original mining area."

"Wait." Hearing this, Gu Chen quickly interrupted:
"That is to say, there was an old mine before this mining area was mined, and the huge mine pit was left behind by the old mine."

“And the place where you are working now is developed on the basis of the old mine?”

"Yes." Seeing that Gu Chen had said this, the older miner couldn't help but say:
"Actually, I can see some of the tricks. After all, I have been in this business for many years."

"I am very clear about every operation they carry out. This is not mining at all. It is just a show."

"No, master, can you explain it in more detail?" Lu Weiwei felt more and more that this older miner seemed to see things more clearly than anyone else.

After all, he has been in this industry for many years and has rich experience, so what he says is reliable to a certain extent.

Plus, the old master didn't seem to want to work anymore and just wanted to get his wages back and leave, so he didn't avoid many regulations.

The older miner also nodded slightly and said without hesitation:
"I can tell you everything you want to know. To be honest, this mine is very abnormal. It is not really being developed because some of the key equipment for developing a mine is not available here."

Spreading his hands, the older miner continued to explain: "You said you want to mine, that's it? Obviously not."

"So I feel that this mine is fake."

"Fake?" Yuan Shasha was stunned when she heard this, so she quickly asked:
"Master, are you saying that such a large mine is fake? Is there no mine here at all?"

"I don't think so." The old miner shook his head.

"But there are a lot of ore piled up in the open-pit mining area?" Yuan Shasha said again.

However, the old miner at this time tried to hold back his laughter and said, "They are all fake."

"Are they all fake? But those are all iron ores, no problem. Could it be that these iron ores are not mined in this mining area?"

Gu Chen had some doubts before, so after hearing what the old miner said, he felt that his previous guess was correct.

The old miner nodded silently and said without hesitation: "Yes, they are all fake."

“The ores piled up in these open-pit mines are all transported from other places.”

"Because they want to attract investment and find new big enemies, oh no, partners, so they need to show success and make partners believe that these are all mined in the mining area."

"So, they would secretly transport some high-quality iron ore from outside and put it in these open-air areas."

"How many people know about this?" Officer Wang calmed down and asked quickly.

The old miner thought for a few seconds and shook his head: "Maybe not many people know about this. The workers working here are assigned to different areas."

"Everyone's work has no direct connection with others, and the management of the mine is not something we workers should be responsible for."

"But I know very well that the iron ore piled up in the open-pit mine is definitely not mined in our mine area, but transported in from other places by these truck drivers."

"But because this involves attracting investment to the mining area, even if some people know about it, they dare not talk about it because everyone has signed a confidentiality agreement that prohibits them from freely disclosing the operating conditions of the mining area."

"I know this clearly, so I want to ask you, if I quit, can you help me get back the wages I'm owed?"

"Besides, we signed a confidentiality agreement. If I tell you this now, they may find all kinds of reasons not to pay me, and I may be sued."

"If you expose their illegal activities, you will not be sued." Upon hearing this, Lu Weiwei quickly supported the old miner.

Upon hearing this, the old miner also sighed and said, "I haven't read much, especially I don't know much about the rules and regulations of these legal documents."

"But I know that if I go against these people in the mine, they will definitely not let me off easily."

"But I feel bad keeping these things in my heart. If I don't speak them out, I feel uncomfortable."

"I'm not the kind of person who likes to go along with them. And I suspect that the person you mentioned who died knew too much and was discovered by them, so they used some unconventional means to retaliate against him."

Having said this, the old miner suddenly shut up, seeming a little afraid.

After thinking it over for a few seconds, he looked up at everyone and said, "I may be disadvantaged if I say so much."

"It's okay, just tell me." Officer Wang saw this and quickly encouraged him:

"We need more people like you who have conscience and dare to stand up and expose the dark side here."

"Yeah." Looking up at everyone, the old worker slowly said:
"I believe you, I don't believe them. I feel that this group of people is very dangerous. I work here just to make a living."

"Although they offered me a good salary and the work was quite easy, I always felt that they were cheating me because the more I worked, the more I felt something was wrong."

"This is not a normal mining process. I have always felt uneasy."

"Until you came to my door and said that someone had drowned nearby, and when I saw the photos you took out, I knew that this matter might be related to them." The old miner said a lot in one breath. It can be seen that he still has a conscience. At least he has seen the person who drowned in the mining area.

In addition, the veteran miners have worked as temporary workers in many mining areas and have rich experience in mining work in mining areas.

But because of his rich work experience, working here tells him that this seems to be a scam.

The so-called rich mineral resources seem to not exist at all.

And all this seems more like a scam.

"Thank you." After recording the last paragraph, Gu Chen stood up, took the initiative to walk to the old miner, shook hands with him to express his gratitude and said:
"If you hadn't told us what you had said, we might not have understood the current status of this mining area."

"If the death of this deceased is related to these administrators, then we must act according to the law."

"Then I wish you success." The old miner also shook hands and said.

After a brief conversation, the old miner left the office.

At this moment, everyone in the office fell silent. It seemed that everyone's previous investigation had discovered that there were many problems in this mining area.

For example, there were many problems with the bills that we checked before.

Now the old miner also revealed the fact that the bald man once led people to take the dead away, and at that time, the bald man was holding an electric baton in his hand.

From this point of view alone, the bald man is highly suspicious.

"Call that bald guy in." Officer Wang crossed his fingers and clasped his hands together, looking extremely angry.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen nodded slightly.

Officer Wang then opened the door and began looking for someone.

The bald man was called over again.

Facing the stern faces of the police, the bald man smiled bitterly and said, "Comrade police, is your investigation never going to end?"

"It's not that it's endless, it's just that my understanding of you is not deep enough." Yuan Shasha also complained.

The bald man also laughed: "Look at what you said, how can it be possible? Your investigation has seriously affected the normal mining of our mining area, and also seriously affected our negotiations with our partners."

"Haha." Hearing the bald man say this, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but sneer and said:
"Does it affect your work? No, is your mine operating normally?"

When Yuan Shasha asked this, the bald man was stunned for a moment.

This question seemed to make the bald man realize that the police seemed to have known something.

Before this, the police had conducted a lot of investigations and questioning, and carried out various detailed investigations on the managers and employees here.

I was ordered around in various ways, but fortunately there were no other problems.

But now, from the tone of the police, it seemed that the matter had taken a new turn.

The bald man's heart skipped a beat, and he slowly said, "Comrade police, we are all familiar faces here, just say whatever you want to say."

"You're willing to tell me everything you know?" Lu Weiwei asked with a raised eyebrow.

The bald man nodded silently: "I will tell you everything I know."

"You've seen the deceased, right?" After hearing what the bald man said, Lu Weiwei asked directly.

But the bald man suddenly started to shudder and stood there at a loss as to what to do.

"I'm asking you a question. Have you seen the deceased?" Lu Weiwei continued to ask.

The bald man took a deep breath and said, "No...no."

"Still pretending? At this point, you're still pretending with us?" Officer Wang couldn't stand it anymore and started talking to him:

"To tell you the truth, when we performed an autopsy on the drowned victim, we found traces of electric shock on him."

"In the entire mining area, you are the only one who has an electric baton, and it is locked in the cabinet in your office. Ordinary people have no right to take it out, but you can."

"Uh……"

After hearing what Officer Wang said, the bald man stood there in a daze, not knowing how to organize his words for a moment.

So Officer Wang continued, "You actually know very well what the true identity of the deceased is?"

"Because you were the one who took the deceased away with you that day, and you were holding an electric baton in your hand at the time."

"No... no, who told you this?" Faced with Officer Wang's close attack, the bald man suddenly panicked.

He also started to refute, and his mood began to become irritable.

Officer Wang smiled coldly and said, "God is watching you. Everyone knows the good things you have done."

"Besides, do you think there were no witnesses to what happened that day?"

"I now seriously suspect that the deceased was tortured by you with electric shocks before he died, and then you threw him into the reservoir."

“We wanted to dispose of the body, but it surfaced again.”

"No, no, this may be a misunderstanding, you may have made a mistake." When the bald man saw that the police had already pointed the direction of their investigation into the murderer towards him, his entire face changed.

But Officer Wang refused to give up and continued, "You said this was a misunderstanding? Then let me ask you, what exactly is going on in your mining area?"

"Mining area? What's wrong with the mining area?" The bald man expressed confusion.

"Do you know anything about mining?" asked Officer Wang.

"I... I don't really understand." While lowering his head, the bald man continued to explain:
"But Xugong has more experience and he understands, while I only know management."

"Is your mine operating normally? Is it following the normal mining process?" Gu Chen was no longer as friendly as before, and asked in a stern tone.

At this moment, the bald man felt that the end was coming.

He looked at Gu Chen with despair, his eyes full of fear, as if everything that was supposed to happen would still happen.
