Vorobyov also noticed that only Besonova had been talking to her in this strange squad of workers, and everyone else was silent or whispering from a little distance.

If Vorobyov was in normal times, he would definitely be suspicious of the identity of the four, but now his mind is not on this, and he has no time to care about the origin of the four, and his mind is full of how to quickly solve this matter, and then go to the DW office to warn the others, Pripyat may have been radiated at this time, and the people in the town are probably still ignorant.

Vorobyov was also annoyed when he thought of this, Bryukhanov was simply talking nonsense with his eyes open, turning a blind eye to the numbers on the radiometer, and the director of the plant did his part, it was really better not to have it.

The group of five people was very preoccupied at this time, so they rarely talked on the road.

The head of the Civil Defense Department led the four of them to the front of the No. 1 administrative building and said, "Bryukhanov is in the underground bunker of the administrative building, you go straight down the stairs, and you will find him soon after." ”

By saying this, Vorobyov meant that he was going to break up with the four of them here, and it seemed that he didn't want to see Bryukhanov's face again.

And at this moment, a figure staggered out of the administrative building.

The man's skin was red, accompanied by a violent cough, it looked like he had just been exposed to a high dose of radiation, but compared to his physical condition, what was worse was his mental condition, he looked in a trance, and when he walked to the front of the steps, his legs were weak, and he sat directly on it, and at the same time muttered in his mouth, "It's over, it's all over." ”

"Anatoly!" Vorobyov recognized the person and said in surprise, "Why are you here?" ”

Anatoly raised his head when he heard this, his eyes looked a little hesitant, and after a while, he recognized the person in front of him, and squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying at the latter, "Vorobyov, haven't you left yet?" ”

"yes, I just measured the radiation values in various places again, recorded them and prepared to go to the DW office to warn the people in the town, you look very uncomfortable, is there something going on?"

Anatoly sighed, "Well, you reported to Bryukhanov about the radiometer explosion and warned him that there was a serious nuclear leak, but Bryukhanov didn't believe it, so he came to me, and he told me that I was one of the most experienced physicists in the nuclear power plant, and that I was the deputy chief engineer of the first phase of the construction project, and that I was a neutral outsider in this accident, so he asked me to climb to the roof of Area V to see what was going on in the central hall." ”

"You promised him?" Vorobyov was shocked when he heard this, "The radiation level near the reactor is so high that I can't get close to it at all, but the meter keeps ringing when I get a little closer." ”

"I can't refuse, he's the director of the plant after all, and most importantly, I want to know what's going on and whether there's a problem with our current plan," Anatoly said, "I walked through the crew and got to the central hall to know that the reactor was already dead, but to further confirm this, I climbed up to the roof of Zone V at Bryukhanov's request, and I saw that the lid of the reactor had been blown open by the explosion, and eighty percent flew over the roof, smashing down the concrete wall."

"Now only half of it is still on top of the reactor, and the reactor is still burning underneath, and those nuclear fission reactions are still happening, Vorobyov, I can feel it in my bones," Anatoly laughed miserably, "It's terrible, I saw graphite blown everywhere on the roof, and all that graphite came from the reactor core, not the tank, it was the core that exploded." ”

"Did you tell Bryukhanov what you saw?"

"Of course, I told him what I had seen, but he was angry and he was...... He just refused to believe that the core had been destroyed, and he and Fumin were still asking people to fill the reactor with water, but in my opinion, all the low-level water AC lines there had been blown up, and in order to restore the water supply, Akimov and Toptunov worked underneath for hours, and their courage was commendable, but unfortunately all the water flowed into the underground compartment, flooding the cable room and the high-voltage switchgear, and it was possible that the other three reactors would also be de-energized. ”

"Bryukhanov and Fomin are no longer reliable, we should inform the others immediately." Vorobyov said solemnly.

Baldasarov had shut down reactor No. 3, and although Fomin wouldn't allow him to do so, he shut it down himself when he noticed that the water level in the degassed tank was getting lower. Fuming is probably in a rage over this, but one day he will thank Baldazaro for not shutting down reactor three, and the core of reactor three is estimated to have melted now. ”

Anatoly coughed violently as he spoke, "It's so uncomfortable, I feel like my lungs are on fire, Vorobyov, I don't think I'll survive." ”

"Hold on, man, I'll take you to the medical center right now." Vorobyov couldn't care about Zhang Heng and the four of them at this time, so he stepped forward and picked up Anatoly, let the latter lean on his shoulder, and then walked quickly in the direction of the parking lot.

The players glanced at each other, although they had more or less realized that Bryukhanov and Fomin were suspected of negligence, but to this extent, it was still beyond everyone's expectations, especially when Bryukhanov sent a top nuclear physicist to risk his life to investigate the situation at the reactor, but once the results were different from what he had imagined, he refused to believe the facts in front of him.

On the other hand, the words of Vorobyov and Anatoly brought Bessonova an even greater shock, although Zhang Heng told her that the reactor had exploded when they first met, but she had no relevant knowledge of nuclear physics at that time, and she didn't realize how serious the situation was.

And as she came into contact with more and more nuclear power plant workers, from Gatlov to Anatoly, her understanding of reactors became more and more in-depth, although far less than those nuclear physicists, but it has surpassed the vast majority of ordinary people living in Pripyat, and it is because of this that after hearing Anatoly's words, she can understand what she is facing now.

This is a real disaster!

And now she's following the player as she tries to piece together the cause of the disaster bit by bit like a jigsaw puzzle.
