Chapter Seventy-Three: The Gymnasium
Since the gymnasium has not yet been completely excavated, Officer Gao, other police officers and medical staff have to settle down in the dormitory building for the time being, and then move there after the gymnasium is dug up.
Men and women were separated, and Director Xiao vacated two dormitories for each of the men's and women's dormitories, one for four people. And Officer Gao and Deputy Captain Wang Li lived in Director Xiao's assistant room.
As for the two boxes of medical equipment and medicines, they were temporarily stored in a security room that was used as an office.
After everyone settled down, hot water was brought over, and after the thermos was filled with hot water, almost everyone drenched their toils and applied them to their faces, wiped their hands, and refreshed themselves to drive away some of the cold.
Officer Gao and Wang Li took a short rest, then went out to investigate the environment, they first observed the men's dormitory building where they were located, and when they saw the overcrowding scene, they could guess that the situation in the girls' dormitory building next door should be not much worse.
"It seems that the progress of the gymnasium is imminent!"
"yes, the dormitory building is clearly overloaded!"
The two went outside to dig the site to investigate, and the current situation of the shelter was not optimistic. Due to overcrowding, people who were already suffering from cold and coughing began to spread from person to person.
According to Director Xiao, the number of people with cough is constantly increasing, and the people who initially had symptoms have been coughing for more than a month. Because of the limited medicines they have, there is no treatment for the sick population.
Coupled with the limited space and the inability to isolate people, more and more people will be infected, and there will be a vague uncontrollable phenomenon.
Nowadays, the gymnasium is even more important, in addition to serving as a resting place for police officers and medical personnel, it will also serve as an ark to shelter the sick, separate the sick from the healthy, and prevent the infection from worsening!
"When the time comes, you have to make arrangements, especially the head nurse, their treatment must be in place!"
"Okay, understood, don't worry, you've been fully prepared before!"
"Okay!"
Officer Gao and Wang Li were discussing follow-up medical matters, but when they turned their heads, they inadvertently saw a white shadow passing by not far away.
The girl's beautiful appearance and elegant and gentle temperament instantly attracted his attention, and he was a little stupid!
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing!"
Wang Lizheng seriously reported the follow-up arrangements, but he didn't hear Officer Gao's reply, and he was curious to find that Officer Gao was looking at a certain place, stupid.
He looked over curiously, but didn't find anything unusual, and after asking, Officer Gao came back to his senses, but when he went to pursue the shadow again, it was already gone.
Over there, the excavation progress of the gymnasium has actually entered the final stage, although the three sides of the gymnasium are still sealed by high ice, and the entrance and exit gates are about to be dug out.
As one person excitedly held the hammer and cheered loudly, the long-frozen gate was also smashed open, and the light was seen again!
"It's open, the door is open!"
"Really, Director Xiao, Director Xiao, the gymnasium can enter!"
Xiao Li, who was in charge of leading the team, ran over happily when he heard the cheers, and saw that the scattered ice fell to the ground, and a corner of the long-lost cement floor was exposed, and the door was smashed open, and half of it had been pushed open.
The quiet and dark hall was close in front of him, Xiao Li couldn't hold back his excitement anymore, let the others continue to work, and he ran to the dormitory building, and did not forget to shout the good news loudly while running.
Xiao Li ran all the way over, and the sound alarmed everyone, and in less than a moment, almost everyone knew the good news that the gymnasium had been dug up.
"Really, dug it out!"
"It's dug up, I've confirmed it with my own eyes!"
Director Xiao still didn't believe it, but Xiao Li was sure again and again, so he became excited, and the two hurriedly ran towards the gymnasium.
At this time, the crowd who rushed over after hearing the news had already surrounded the gate of the gymnasium. When Xiao Li saw it, he hurriedly dispersed the crowd, and in a walkway they gave up, he and Director Xiao entered the gymnasium smoothly.
Officer Gao and Wang Li had already entered the hall as soon as possible, and because of the lack of light in the museum, the deeper they went, the more they couldn't see their fingers.
Fortunately, Wang Li was able to carry a flashlight with him, so he was able to smoothly survey the internal environment with Officer Gao in the dark environment. Although the gymnasium has been frozen in ice and snow for a long time, the internal facilities are intact, except for the black, there is nothing wrong!
"Officer Gao, Deputy Team Wang, how's it going?"
When Director Xiao entered the gymnasium, he saw Officer Gao and Wang Li walking out, believing that they had a general understanding of the internal situation.
Officer Gao made a gesture of invitation to Director Xiao, and several people walked out while talking about the situation inside the gymnasium!
"There are no problems with the facilities in the museum, but due to the lack of electricity, the ice outside the museum should be cleaned as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too dark and cold, and it will not be conducive to the patient's recuperation inside!"
"Yes, I'm asking people to speed up the progress and make sure to clean up all the ice outside the museum as quickly as possible!"
"Hmmm! In addition to these, Director Xiao also asked to sort out a list of personnel, who is the most seriously ill, and will be given priority to enter the museum for treatment. ”
"This is no problem, we have been doing detailed tracking and registration for the source of the disease, and I will let people sort out the list and hand it to you later!"
"Cheng, let's take our time for the follow-up matters, and we can't rush now!"
"yes!"
Since the gymnasium has been able to enter, everyone is motivated, and the arrival of senior police officers and other medical personnel, medical equipment, and medicines has given hope to everyone in the shelter.
For the sake of themselves and their families, they also want to clear the gymnasium as soon as possible, so that the seriously ill people can be treated.
More and more people joined, and the progress of the excavation was qualitatively improved, and everyone finally succeeded in clearing all the ice blocks that wrapped around the windows before dusk and sunset.
There are 20 large and bright windows in the gymnasium, and when the ice blocks that block the view are removed, the dusk sunlight shines into the gymnasium through the windows.
Although the interior of the museum is still a little dark, it is enough to make people see the interior environment clearly.
Director Xiao asked people to go in and clean the ground in the museum first, and clean up all the ash layer debris. The basketball shooting stand, the badminton net, and the movable seats were all moved out, freeing up all the space for beds, equipment, and medicines!
With the help of everyone, they finally moved all the sports equipment and other items to the ice and clearing outside, and new problems arose, which troubled all of them.
Due to the increasing number of people, the already tight beds are now even more crowded, and there are simply no extra beds to free up and place in the gymnasium.
"Director Xiao, can you find a few students from this school?"
"That's fine!"
"We'll gather the team and go to other dormitories in a moment and move the beds inside!"
Just when everyone was at a loss, Officer Gao gave a solution, and everyone came to their senses.
The university town covers an area of 10 large areas, consisting of several districts, with many departments and majors, and there are several natural dormitory buildings. Although nearly half of the building's floors are covered in ice, as long as you can get in, it's not a problem at all.
