48 Hours a Day

Vorobjøv also noticed that only Besonova in this strange team of workers had been talking to her, and everyone else had remained silent or had stolen whispers a little further away.

If Vorobjøv normally doubted the identity of the four people, but now his mind is not here, and he has no time to worry about the origin of the four people, how to solve the matter quickly, then go to the dw office to warn others, Pripyati may already have radiation at this time, and the people in town probably don't know anything.

Wolobyov was also angry when he thought of this place. Bryhanov was just lying with his eyes open and ignoring the numbers on the radiator. The factory director did it for his sake, but he really didn't.

Five people in a row are very worried at this time, so there is very little talk on the road.

The director of the Civil Defence Department took the four men to Executive Building 1 and said, “Bryhanov is in the underground bunker of the Executive Building, you go straight down the stairs and you will find him shortly afterwards. ”

Wolobyov's words meant he was going to break up with the four of them here, and he didn't want to see Buljanov's face again.

And that's when a shadow came out of the administration building.

The man's skin was red and accompanied by a severe cough. At first glance, he had just received a high dose of radiation, but worse than his physical condition was his mental condition, which appeared to be a trance. When he walked to the front of the steps, his legs were soft and he sat directly on top, while his mouth muttered, “It's over, it's all over. ”

“Anatoli!” Wolobyov recognized someone, surprised, “What are you doing here? ”

Anatoly looked up, his eyes seemed a little hesitant. It took a moment to identify the person in front of him, and he squeezed a smile worse than crying, "Wolobyov, haven't you left yet? ”

“Yeah, I just took another dose of radiation from all over the place, recorded it, ready to go to the dw office, warned the town people that you look unwell, what happened? ”

Anatoly sighed, "Alas, you reported to Brehanov about the radiometer explosion, warning him that there had been a serious nuclear leak, but Brehanov didn't believe it, and then he found me, and he told me that I was one of the most experienced physicists at the nuclear power plant, and that I was a deputy chief engineer of construction engineering operations in Phase I, and I was a neutral outsider in this accident, so he let me climb to the roof of Area V and see what was going on in Central Hall. ”

“You promised him?” Wolobyov was shocked, "the radiation levels around the reactor were too high for me to get close, but the measuring instrument kept ringing just a little closer. ”

“I couldn't refuse, he was the factory manager, and most importantly, I wanted to know if there was a problem with our current response,” Anatoli Road, "I crossed the crew and went to the central lobby to know how rare the reactor was, but to further substantiate that, I climbed to the roof of Area V as Brekhanov had requested, and I saw that the reactor's cover had been blown open, and I probably flew over the roof and smashed the concrete wall.

“Only half of it is still covered in the reactor, underneath which the reactor is still burning, and those fission reactions are still happening, Vorobjøv, my bones can feel it," Anatoli smiled, “it's horrible," I saw graphite blown up all over the roof, and the graphite came from the reactor's core, not the water tank, but the core exploded. ”

“Did you tell Brehanov what you saw? ”

“Of course, I reported everything I saw to him honestly, but he was angry, and he just... refused to believe that the core had been destroyed and that he and Fuming were still being fed to the reactor, but in my opinion all the low-level water AC lines there had been blown up, and in order to restore the water supply to Akimov and Toptunov, they had worked for a few hours downstairs, with great courage, but unfortunately those waters had all flowed into the basement compartment, flooding the cable room and the high-voltage switchgear, which could have cut off the other three reactors as well. ”

“Brekhanov and Fuming are no longer reliable, and we should inform the others immediately.” Wolobyov took it seriously.

“Baldasarov has shut down reactor number three, although Fuming did not allow him to do so, but he did so himself when he noticed the water level in the degassing tank was getting lower. Fuming is probably jumping like a thunder, but one day he'll thank Baldassaro, and if Baldassaro doesn't shut down Reactor 3, now the core of Reactor 3 is probably melting. ”

Anatoli said, coughing again and again, “It hurts, I feel like my lungs are on fire, Vorobjøv, I don't think I'm going to make it. ”

“Hang on, man, I'm taking you to the medical center right now.” Wolobyov had completely lost sight of the Zhang Heng Four by now, walked up to Anatoly and leaned on his shoulder, then quickly walked in the direction of the parking lot.

And the players looked at each other, and although they had more or less realized before that Brekhanov and Fuming were suspected of negligence, to that extent they were unexpected by all, especially when Brekhanov sent the top nuclear physicists to the reactor, but once the results differed from what he had envisioned, he refused to believe the facts before him.

On the other hand, Vorobjøv and Anatoly's words caused even greater shock to Besonova. Although Zhang Heng told her the reactor had blown up the first time she met, she had no relevant nuclear physics knowledge at that time and had no idea how serious the situation was.

And as she came into contact with more and more nuclear plant staff, from Gatrov to Anatoly, her knowledge of the reactor grew, far less than those of nuclear physicists, but beyond the vast majority of ordinary people who lived in Pripyati, and because of this, after hearing Anatoli's words, she understood what she was facing.

This is a catastrophe!

And now she's following the players, trying to put together the cause of this disaster like a puzzle.
