While in the car, Li Nan vaguely guessed that this was Blood Rose's method!
Li Sifu arranged for Secretary Zhou to order a refrigerator with nine layers of mulberry leaves.
He also took four subordinates, who appeared to be relatives, into the icehouse in the morning.
Isn't all of this a perfect replica of the new story of Blood Rose?
The story of Blood Rose, though the ending wasn't explicitly stated.
The answer is obvious: the five people in the coffin are likely in grave danger!
Modern ice storage facilities are not the old mud-brick and tile houses, but rather insulated steel-concrete structures with special materials added.
Without a key, breaking down the door would be as difficult as climbing to the sky!
During the call, Li Nan had already instructed Yang Bairong and Ma Jie, who were in the same car, to contact the person in charge of the ice storage and bring the keys over as quickly as possible!
Also, notify the fire department to bring a hydraulic breaker and come over immediately!
The firefighters who came with us earlier did not have the necessary demolition equipment.
I'm rushing over now, hopefully it's not too late!
Just as Li Nan ended the call, Ma Jie told him, "Section Chief Li, I contacted the ice storage facility. They said the keys to their ice storage were requisitioned by the Commerce Department a few days ago and haven't been returned yet. They're looking for the spare key, but they probably won't be able to find it anytime soon!"
"This is truly a double whammy; hopefully, the fire department's follow-up teams will arrive soon!"
Just now in the Anding Division, Li Nan only heard that the Director of the Commerce Division had an accident, and immediately applied to Deputy Yang for permission to be dispatched.
Vice President Yang was also anxious and told Li Nan to set off immediately!
I should have listened to Secretary Zhou's explanation first before coming over together.
But things can be urgent or unpredictable, and who can foresee these things in advance?
Once inside the park, following the navigation, we made a few turns and arrived at our destination.
At the entrance of the old factory, the young Secretary Zhou was already waiting anxiously.
Li Nan and the others got out of the car and, without even exchanging pleasantries, followed Secretary Zhou closely to the ice storage room.
It was indeed a cold storage facility, and only a cold storage facility!
The entire seven- or eight-meter-high single-story building is a complete ice storage facility!
Apart from the necessary ventilation and heat dissipation channels, the ice storage room has only one heavy alloy door, three meters wide, which stands in the center of the room.
The main gate has two doors, left and right. Below the doorway, the iron chain that Secretary Zhou reported over the phone is lying there.
Li Nan glanced around and sighed in relief. He then instructed Yang Bairong, "Call the fire department to come and see how we can get in without a hydraulic breaker!"
The fire department's colleagues, dressed in black, carefully inspected the ice storage area.
After knocking and looking around for more than ten minutes, one of the older colleagues said helplessly, "They're storing gold here. With this level of security, you can't even get in with a bomb without a hydraulic breaker!"
"We can only wait. Hopefully, the people inside will hold on!"
Of course, people didn't just sit idly by.
Although the cold storage facility cannot be accessed for the time being, its operation relies heavily on a large power supply.
During the recent inspection, the fire department has located and cut off the power supply line.
The temperature is no longer constant; hopefully, the five people among them can hold on a little longer!
While waiting, Li Nan spoke with Secretary Zhou to learn more about the specifics.
For some reason, Li Nan felt that Secretary Zhou looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
Although Li Nan is sometimes unreliable and a bit silly, his memory is above average.
Where have I seen this Secretary Zhou before?
Secretary Zhou seemed to be quite adept at reading people's expressions. He noticed Li Nan's confusion and asked directly, "Section Chief Li, haven't we met somewhere before?"
Li Nan was speechless for a moment. Could this Secretary Zhou possibly read minds? Or had they really met somewhere before?
"The city of Tanhua is only so big, maybe we really have met before!"
As the two were talking, the sound of heavy vehicles passing by came from afar. Li Nan knew that the fire department's "siege team" had arrived!
The group arrived at the factory gate to greet the fire chief.
Secretary Zhou lagged behind Li Nan, sighing inwardly, "As expected of a destiny expert, he recognized me even though he's only seen my father's photo. After this is over, I need to urge Gao Siming to take action, and then I should leave this place of sorrow!"
The hydraulic breaker that everyone had been eagerly anticipating was indeed extraordinary. The construction vehicle drove to the entrance of the ice storage, and under the guidance of skilled workers, they began hammering and banging along both sides of the gate.
"Knock knock knock!"
After the hydraulic breaker struck the door frame more than ten times, cracks appeared on both sides of the frame.
The construction vehicle immediately stopped hammering and instead replaced it with a pulling device, which was fixed to the two door handles of the gate.
The construction vehicle slowly reversed, and with a piercing squeak, the two steel doors collapsed to the ground.
An empty icehouse appeared before them.
Inside the ice storage, apart from a few wooden crates placed in one corner, there was nothing else.
All eyes were focused on the five rectangular refrigerators in the center.
"Help!"
At Li Nan's command, everyone began to move.
The top cover of the refrigerator did not fit tightly with the bottom section; Li Nan pushed it open with just a little force.
Inside the refrigerator lay a pale-faced young man; clearly, this was not Li Sifu.
Although his face was pale, Li Nan could still see that the man's body was trembling.
"It seems like there's nothing serious, nothing to worry about!"
Hospital rescuers immediately stepped forward and lifted the man out of the refrigerator.
The situation is urgent; today's primary task is to rescue people.
Everyone automatically ignored the formalities of gloves and foot covers, and it's estimated that they couldn't be retrieved from the scene afterward.
