v3 Chapter 493: Pripyat (1/2)
The wheels of the bus were pressed against the asphalt road, making a dull friction sound, and the roar of the engine appeared particularly clear in the silent night.
Players harvested a watch from the unconscious bus driver, and finally knew the exact time.
-1:44 in the morning, and according to Zhang Heng's calculation, the explosion should have occurred 15 to 20 minutes ago.
There is still quite a long time before dawn at this moment. In Pripyat, 3 kilometers away from the nuclear power plant, most of the residents of the town are still in their sweet sleep, unaware that the gas waves caused by the explosion have already part of the core material Sent to the sky, forming a large radioactive aerosol air mass.
At first, the air mass just wrapped the nuclear power plant, but it soon began to expand and spread in all directions under the action of wind force.
The first residents of Pripyat who noticed the explosion were probably a group of night fishing enthusiasts.
The nuclear power plant will discharge the cold water after the steam turbine preheat exchanger into the Pripyat River, because the water is very warm and will attract fish, it is an excellent fishing place, and it is just in time to catch up In the spring spawning season, fishing enthusiasts come here, even at night, there are many people.
The closest distance is less than 300 meters from the No. 4 reactor. When the maintenance workers drove past them beside the bus, the players saw some anglers looking up at the thick smoke in the direction of the reactor, some of them because of Worried about starting to pack things, but more people still choose to stay where they are.
They seem to believe that the fire will not spread here, especially when several fire trucks arrived just now, which also gave the anglers a lot of confidence that the fire will be controlled soon, and some people even feel that they can be near Witnessing the heroic firefighters to put out the fire is something that can be boasted to friends in the future, so they continue to hold the fishing rod and stay by the river.
In addition, the crowd also saw a pair of young people who were stealing the forbidden fruit by the river. They turned a blind eye to the explosion behind them, entwined tightly, and farther away, patrolling several lines on the railway bridge Workers also stopped to watch.
”Oh, it looks like we are the only one in this hundred miles who is busy escaping.” Kui Ye laughed at himself.
”They will pay the price,” the doctor said solemnly. ”The radiant dust above the nuclear power plant has floated here, falling on their skin, entering their lungs with each of their breaths, waiting for them in the future Recall again ... If they have a future, this will be the last thing they regret in their life. ”
”What are these people thinking, how could you be indifferent to the explosion in the nuclear power plant when you are at the side of the nuclear power plant?” The rat looked incredulous.
”I don't know, I'm just a surgeon, not a psychologist.” The doctor shrugged.
”Will these radioactive dust float to the town?” Kui Ye was concerned about another question at the moment.
”There is no doubt that this is already a thing in sight.”
