Either way, the players finally have a plan of action for the next step.

Hope has proven to be humanity's most advantageous weapon in any disaster.

After finding a new direction, the mood calmed down for a while, including Coconut, and everyone began to talk about how to approach Kondwitz.

According to Bryukhanov, the group of experts arrived in Kyiv an hour and a half ago, and counting the time on the road, they should have arrived in Pripyat by this time, but it is not known how they got here, by train, car, or ship?

And I don't know where they will go first when they come, and how the day's itinerary will be arranged. However, players do know where the expert group will stay at night - the Pripyat Grand Hotel, the only hotel in town, is usually used to receive tourists from all over the world, and the environment and service inside are very good.

Besonova was sure that the team would have stayed in that hotel if they had stayed in Pripyat.

"In this way, we can save trouble, just go to the hotel and wait." "When the time comes, we can also let Bessonova see which room Kondwitz lives in, and if we're lucky, we don't even have to alarm the others." ”

Her proposal was unanimously agreed by the players, and the repairman began to drive towards the Pripyat Grand Hotel, and everyone seemed to be back motivated.

However, Zhang Heng knows very well that this motivation is only temporary, and once he gets an unsatisfactory answer from Kondwitz, it will not only be a coconut at that time, but also many people's emotions will collapse.

Unlike people in this era, Zhang Heng and his group of players are very aware of the horror of nuclear radiation.

In a sense, most of the real human understanding of crises comes from disasters, and perhaps only in such an intuitive way can everyone pay attention to and be vigilant.

The Chernobyl accident was like a punch that hit everyone, not just ordinary people who knew nothing about nuclear physics, but even the engineers and workers who worked at the nuclear power plant. Prior to this, everyone was somewhat paralyzed by more than 30 years of smooth nuclear use, so much so that when disaster really struck, many people lost their sense of danger.

This is also an important reason why in the eyes of many people in later generations, people at that time seemed a little slow to deal with this matter, to put it bluntly, whether it was SL or the United States, they had not dealt with the reactor explosion before, so until now, eleven hours after the explosion, there are still many people who do not understand what kind of situation they are facing.

…………

Just as the players rushed to the hotel, on the other side, the Moscow team of experts finally arrived in Pripyat by car from Kiev, some of them went directly to the nuclear power plant, found Bryukhanov and Fomin in the bunker to understand the situation, and some people managed to get the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find a Mi-6 helicopter, and also found a photo agency and binoculars, wanting to fly above the reactor to see the situation.

As a result, when the helicopter approached the reactor, they were completely stunned by the sight beneath their feet.

The site of what was once a reactor is now completely in ruins. The drum separator had long since left where it was supposed to be, and the pipes underneath had been pulled out, and the headers protruded from the outer wall of the auxiliary system, pointing proudly to the sky, littered with gravel and black graphite, the asphalt road glowing blue, and the air smelled of metal.

And the amazing thing is that in this terrible mess, the water tank of the control emergency system that Bryukhanov and Fomin reported that there had been an explosion did not seem to be too damaged, and the wall where it was located still stood there.

The experts on the plane are also a little confused now, the situation on the scene is too far from the information they have gotten, and on the way to the road, they are already thinking about how to repair the damaged part as quickly as possible, so that the reactor can be reconnected to the grid for power generation.

But now, even the most optimistic people don't think that reactor No. 4 will continue to generate electricity.

The experts had the helicopter hover over the right side of the reactor, and then the photographers took pictures of their feet, everyone's heart and eyes beating wildly.

Even without the use of a measuring instrument, they could tell how strong the radiation was now, especially when they looked into the ruins where the reactor was located, and they could see the crimson patch below, and the people on the plane quickly realized what it meant, but none of them said what they thought in their hearts, because it was too scary.

It affected far more than just the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, not just the 50,000 inhabitants of Pripyat, but also Ukraine, Belarus and beyond, in fact, just flying near the reactor, they were exposed to a lot of radiation, and it was only because of the responsibility of the investigation that the experts did not let the helicopter land immediately.

However, when they saw Bryukhanov and Fomin in the bunker, they didn't expect that the two of them were still gritting their teeth and insisting on the statement that the water tank exploded and the reactor was safe and sound.

Bryukhanov and Fomin have already figured it out, they have no way out, no matter how much they shirk their responsibilities, the reactor explosion as the main person in charge of the nuclear power plant can hardly escape the blame, the only way to survive at the moment is to pull the experts sent by the committee into the water together, and then everyone ponders how to solve this shocking lie together.

In this regard, the experts who have already seen the reactor have something to say. There was even a hint of sympathy in the eyes that looked at Bryukhanov and Fomin, feeling that these two people had gone completely insane.

However, after all, the first team was only responsible for investigating the accident and formulating a solution, and they did not have direct command to give orders, although everyone who saw the current condition of the reactor felt that nearby residents should be evacuated immediately.

But they waited until the members of the accident committee who took the second flight arrived, especially Boris Yevdogimovich Shcherbina, deputy chairman of the Council of Ministers, who was also the first person responsible for the handling of the Chernobyl accident.

He has been promoting the construction of nuclear power in SL all these years, before Bryukhanov proposed to him to evacuate the residents of Pripyat, which he did not hesitate to veto, he arrived in Pripyat at about nine o'clock in the evening, and then rushed to the conference room non-stop,

"How's it going?" Sherbina rubbed her aching thighs and sat down in a chair in the conference room.

"Very unoptimistic, the reactor has been destroyed, and I propose to immediately evacuate the inhabitants of Pripyat." Ma Lin, the person in charge of the nuclear energy accident of the Central WY Association, said in a solemn voice.
