After Captain Wang finished speaking, he walked straight to the wall next to the tool shed.
The alarm went off!
Accompanied by the urgent and piercing alarm, the entire mine was immediately plunged into a tense atmosphere!
Especially the workers busy in various parts of the mine, although they were somewhat taken aback by the sudden sound,
The timing is familiar to everyone; we've practiced it regularly.
Knowing what this sound means,
There wasn't time for everyone to pack up their tools.
They immediately became extremely alert.
They all looked towards their respective squad leaders or those like the dragon leader.
Some of the managers didn't dare to delay and their expressions immediately changed drastically: "Quickly cut off the power and get outside! Something must have happened! Don't dawdle!"
He directed everyone to evacuate, while he himself ran to the switch in the corner and turned off the power!
Fortunately, everyone still had the headlamps on their safety helmets, and someone had even managed to light a flashlight.
Seeing that there were no safety hazards, everyone slowly retreated and soon arrived at the exit.
Captain Wang did not leave at this time. As the person in charge, he was in charge of all the operations underground.
There's no such thing as deserting in the face of battle; otherwise, you wouldn't feel good about it.
Even if you go to the mine, if the leaders find out, they will have other ideas!
At this point, some people who didn't know what was going on were still confused.
"Captain Wang, what's up? I didn't hear about the safety drill today? Is it some kind of surprise inspection? I heard some leaders from the county came, are you trying to set an example for them?"
When the others heard someone say that, they couldn't help but look over, thinking to themselves, "That person is clever."
Being able to deduce the ins and outs of a matter from some subtle clues.
How could I not have thought of that? I need to pay more attention in the future!
This person is far inferior to others!
Being stared at by so many people, the self-important and clever man was even a little smug.
Feeling like I'd made a name for myself in front of everyone, I puffed out my chest proudly.
Unexpectedly, Captain Wang didn't give him a friendly look.
His already stern face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.
“It seems like something’s going to happen down the mine. Don’t you guys think it’s much colder than usual today? The mine walls are also very damp. I’m worried about a water inrush. You’re not all in the same place, so didn’t any of you notice anything unusual?”
The person who had just spoken felt embarrassed and wanted to say a few more words to make amends.
"Are you alright, Captain Wang? Isn't it always this cold down here? Maybe you're mistaken. There's nothing wrong with our line. Are you just overthinking it?"
Before Captain Wang could speak, someone from another group spoke up first.
“Something seems off over there. The water is running louder, and there’s a faint odor, but it’s not very noticeable. Besides, this line will be abandoned in a couple of days, so I didn’t think much of it. Could it be such a coincidence?”
The situation was urgent, and Captain Wang didn't want to waste any more time here.
With an impatient wave of his hand
"We can't gamble. If something goes wrong, it will be serious. You all need to quickly count the number of people. Groups with everyone present should get out first! Go outside and prepare water pumps and other equipment. If anyone is still stuck, we need to find a way to rescue them immediately!"
Seeing Captain Wang's serious expression, no one dared to say anything more, and some group leaders quickly counted the number of people in their groups.
After confirming that the venue was full, they walked out without looking back!
This is no joke; if something really goes wrong and water gets trapped down the well...
It wasn't an easy time to get through it; thankfully, the people outside provided timely medical assistance.
If time drags on, there will be a lack of food and water underground, and even air circulation may be difficult.
If this goes on for too long, something bad might happen!
The people in the mine were fully aware of these dangers, and no one wanted to put themselves at risk.
They hurriedly headed outside! Once they reached the ground, they would be completely out of danger!
Meanwhile, Mo Yuan and Zhou Yongli were among the first to emerge from the mine.
The alarm not only startled those underground, but also threw those above ground into a panic.
Fan Dacheng, who was originally in the conference room with Bao Ruijin, heard the alarm the moment he...
His face immediately turned deathly pale.
For someone who has spent decades working in the mines, the meaning of that piercing alarm is clear.
It's either a routine safety drill or a deployment underground in the mine.
As the mine manager, Fan Dacheng knew better than anyone whether safety drills had been conducted.
There's only one explanation: something happened underground!
For a mine manager who has weathered many storms, underground accidents, though serious, are not unheard of.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't have lost his composure like this.
But now, by sheer coincidence, the county magistrate is at his own mine, and he's eager to showcase all the good aspects of the mine.
Try to make a good impression on Bao Ruijin, after all, having witnessed Bao Ruijin's capabilities...
Fan Dacheng was happy to cultivate a good relationship with the new county head.
It's nice to rest in the shade of a big tree, but what you fear most is what happens.
Unfortunately, this happened at this time.
Fan Dacheng couldn't help but feel uncertain. At this moment, with no clear understanding of the situation, a chill ran down his spine.
I thought to myself, "Oh no, oh no, everything's ruined now!"
However, as an experienced mine manager, Fan Dacheng did not panic for long.
He finally regained his senses after being questioned by Bao Ruijin.
"What's wrong? Has something happened? Don't worry about us, go and handle this. I only have one request: human life is more important than anything else!"
Although he didn't know the specifics of what had happened, judging from Fan Dacheng's expression, Bao Ruijin could guess that something had definitely gone wrong in the mine.
Although I feel a bit unlucky, now that something has happened, I'm bound to be affected to some extent.
Even if you're not directly responsible, it won't sound good if word gets out.
The most urgent task right now is to figure out exactly what happened. As long as no one is killed,
Everything is negotiable!
Fan Dacheng seemed to wake from a dream, nodding repeatedly in agreement.
"Yes, County Chief Bao, I'll go take a look right now. Don't worry, I promise to minimize the impact! You stay here, I'll go now!"
After saying that, he didn't bother with formalities anymore!
I rushed outside, eager to find out what was going on!
Bao Ruijin couldn't sit still any longer, so he followed Fan Dacheng toward the mine entrance!
They ran into Mo Yuan and his group, who had just come out.
Without waiting for a reply, Fan Dacheng quickly pulled Zhou Yongli aside and asked him what had happened.
"What happened? Was it a landslide or a water leak?"
Since no explosion was heard, Fan Dacheng immediately presented the option of a gas explosion.
Zhong Yongli didn't dare delay and quickly reported the situation to Fan Dacheng in detail.
Hearing that nothing had happened yet, but that Mo Yuan had discovered the problem and warned them in advance,
Captain Wang, who was underground, sounded the alarm and ordered the evacuation of the crowd first!
Fan Dacheng breathed a sigh of relief; at least no one had died.
Since nothing bad has happened yet, that's good!
After this initial shock, the look in their eyes as they gazed at Mo Yuan, the instigator, became somewhat complicated!
There was a hint of resentment, and also a trace of other indescribable meaning.
