Chapter 516: Emergencies
Zhang Heng slept until about eight o'clock in the evening, the sky outside the window had darkened, and the vehicles on the street downstairs had obviously become more than during the day, and almost all of them were driving in the direction of the outside of the city.
Although there has been no official evacuation announcement until now, more and more people choose to leave Pripyat, in fact, the school has announced the closure of classes in the afternoon, requiring students to stay indoors after returning home, but just now the hotel sent people to one room by one notice, including the restaurant, all hotel services as usual, and will not be affected.
But the seven players didn't dare to eat the freshly baked bread and sausages, although they looked very delicious, Zhang Heng and the others still chose to nibble on the portable food in the packaging bag, and just used the hotel kettle to boil two bottles of mineral water to drink.
Eight forty o'clock.
Zhang Heng took over from the previous doctor on duty, sat in the lobby of the Pripyat Hotel, and took a newspaper in his hand, but he was actually observing the people entering and exiting the gate.
According to the hotel's front desk, the occupancy rate of the Grand Hotel Pripyat is now more than half, and the guests are mainly traveling and on business trips, and a small number of foreign guests come to admire the modern atomic city.
It can be seen that the residents are also a little worried about the current situation, and some are considering whether to leave early, but some have decided to continue their stay.
At around 10:15, Zhang Heng saw a group of people walking in from outside, their number exceeded twenty, everyone was wearing suits and leather shoes, and some of them were wearing military uniforms, and they walked into the hotel surrounded by a short man with a sturdy pace.
The waiter saw them and hurriedly went up to greet them, but before he could say a word, he was interrupted by the short man in the middle, he waved his hand impatiently, and the waiter immediately became silent, did not dare to say anything, and walked quickly in front of them to the restaurant on the side.
The chef seemed to have been notified in advance and had already prepared the meal, but it had been left for a while, and the temperature had dropped second, and the most important thing was that a lot of radiation dust had fallen on it, but the group didn't seem to notice this, and each of them prepared their own food, and then found a place and began to gobble up, and there was almost no conversation throughout the whole process, and it could be seen that they were all a little worried, and many of them were tired.
Zhang Heng knew that he had finally waited for the right master.
Although he had not seen the members of the committee, the dress and demeanor of the group in front of him were almost impossible except for the members of the committee and the experts who had just arrived in Pripyat, and the diminutive man in the middle was the chairman of the accident committee, Shcherbina.
According to Bryukhanov's previous statement, this small man is a serious and old-fashioned person, and at the same time very controlling, and there is no room for bargaining when he gives orders, which is why Bryukhanov is so afraid of him, and until now the director of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant still insists on the theory of the explosion of the water tank.
However, the experts who arrived first realized how serious the situation was, and after eating, they split up, Sherbina and two others got on the elevator, while the rest did not go back to their rooms, but turned around and left the hotel.
Zhang Heng hesitated for half a second, then got up from his seat and followed Sherbina with the newspaper.
Because if nothing else, the people who left would go back to work, and the three of Sherbina might take a break first, but after entering the elevator, Zhang Heng saw that Sherbina directly pressed the top button.
After that, Zhang Heng chose the next floor, and when the elevator arrived, Zhang Heng left the elevator with a newspaper, he took three steps, confirmed that the people in the elevator car could not see his location, and then immediately ran to the safe passage, and came to the top floor of the hotel along the stairs of the safe passage.
Zhang Heng looked in the direction of the corridor, and the three of Shelbina happened to walk out of it, but they didn't go to any room, but went up the fire ladder to the roof of the hotel, where a helicopter was already waiting for them.
Although Sherbiner had been persuaded by the experts to agree to the evacuation at the previous meeting, he still wanted to go to the site to see for himself what was really going on at the reactor.
Zhang Heng didn't expect that the committee would go back to the hotel for such a long time and just have a hurried dinner, and they didn't go back to the room to rest at all, but Zhang Heng was not in a hurry, he knew that those people would have to come back to sleep sooner or later, and they all got the keys to their respective rooms when they ate just now, and asked the waiter to transport their carry-on luggage to the house first, in other words, Koonwitz's room can now be found from the waiter.
So Zhang Heng came to the outside of Coconut's room, ready to call her to continue to be a translator, and discussed with Besonova how to get the room number, but he didn't expect that there was no response after knocking on the door.
Zhang Heng frowned, among the players, only Coconut and the maintenance worker lived alone, but it was not ruled out that she was sleeping at this time and did not hear the knock on the door, so Zhang Heng increased the intensity a little, but the door next door opened first, and the maintenance worker poked his head out and asked, "What's wrong." ”
"There's no movement in the coconut house." Zhang Hengdao.
"What a troublesome woman, do you want to call the young man to open the door?" The maintenance worker muttered, impressed by the bouncing wire that slashed the boy.
"No, this lock is very simple, and I can open it." Zhang Heng said, he checked the door lock as soon as he checked in, and now he is familiar with opening the lock, but before entering the door, Zhang Heng still shouted inside, "We came in." ”
After saying that, he pushed open the door, only to smell the sour smell of vomit as soon as he stepped in and half a foot.
Then Zhang Heng took out his mask and put it on, walked into the room, and saw the coconut lying on the ground, her whole face was now red, Zhang Heng touched her forehead, and found that it was amazingly hot, she should have a high fever, and she was burned unconscious, perhaps the only fortunate thing was that she hadn't eaten much before, which allowed her to avoid dying of choking on her own vomit.
Zhang Heng looked back at the somewhat stunned maintenance worker behind him, "Why are you still stunned, go and call the doctor over." ”
