According to the description of the electric workers on site, the company assigned them to repair the cable fault. According to the procedures, they parked the car, put down the reflective cone, and opened the cable manhole cover. The two electricians were about to go down when they suddenly fell to the ground shivering.
Colleagues who were placing reflective cones and unloading cable repair tools from the car were startled. They shouted their names and ran towards them. But as soon as they took a step forward, arcs of electricity were sprayed out of the opened cable well, shooting straight into the sky. That kind of thing.
Immediately afterwards, the street lights all around burst out, and the lights of high-rise buildings were extinguished. The world was instantly plunged into darkness, making the electric light in the cable well become even brighter.
This arc phenomenon did not last long before disappearing, but the shock to the workers on site did not dissipate for a long time. They all looked at the wide open cable well in horror, unable to believe what they saw.
They have been involved in electric power work for at least five, six or even seven or eight years. It is not that they have never seen arcs, but they all happened in ultra-high voltage substations. These are cables in underground cable wells in cities. It is impossible to have such high voltages. The voltage and current can support such a terrifying arc.
It was so weird that even these old electricians found it quite incredible.
After listening to the old worker's story, Chiba Cheng asked Maya to stand still and walked towards the dark cable well. Under the nervous gaze of the workers behind him, he squatted down and put his index and middle fingers together. He felt for the main artery between the necks of the two workers who fell to the ground.
The workers at the rear immediately held their breath and stared nervously at the brave young man who insisted on going over despite dissuasion. Then they saw the other party turning around and shouting: "Did you call an ambulance? They are still alive."
"Oh, yes, yes, ambulance, ambulance!"
The workers, who were almost frightened, finally realized what they were doing and hurriedly took out their mobile phones. Only then did they realize that there was no signal on their mobile phones. Apparently, the abnormal discharge just now caused a large-scale power outage, which caused the signal base stations to stop working.
This made the workers even more surprised. This was just an ordinary power well, and the cables below supplied power to a small area. How could it cause such a large-scale blackout and an incredibly strong arc?
Everything was weird, leaving these old electricians who had been working for seventy or eighty years at a loss. However, saving people was the most important thing, so they rushed over one by one, lifted the two workers into the car, and drove towards the hospital.
Chiba Cheng didn't know first aid, so he didn't do it rashly. After confirming that the two workers were still alive, he continued to move forward and approached the cable well. He leaned over and took a look. It was pitch black below and he couldn't see anything. It was like fireworks after they were set off, brilliant but short-lived, with only a tube left in the end.
"I'll go down and take a look." Chiba Cheng shouted to Maya and went down the ladder. He held the ladder with one hand and reached into his clothes with the other hand. He grabbed the divine light stick. What's wrong? , you can immediately transform into Tiga. After all, adventure is an adventure, and you can't joke with your life.寯寷 bⅹшⅹ● С〇寷
The metal ladder was still hot, and there was a very unpleasant smell in the air, which made Chiba Cheng quickly pull up his clothes and cover his mouth and nose. Although it was not very useful, it was better than nothing.
After going down to the bottom, he took out the divine light stick. The energy core emitted bright light, illuminating the surroundings like a light bulb. Chiba Cheng saw on the brick wall not far away, one by one as thick as his forearm. The cable was scorched into a ball, and even the iron frame holding the cable was melted into shape. It is not difficult to imagine how intense the discharge was.
Chiba Cheng took the divine light stick and looked around. It seemed that there was only one 'fault'. The cables on both sides were intact, extending into the darkness, and they were all arranged neatly.
Looking up at the vault, there was nothing. Looking down at the ground, there were a lot of blackened ashes on the scorched ground. When I squatted down, I stretched out my hand and twirled it. Before I could feel it, I caught the shadow of the dense cables above in my peripheral vision. There was a big hole in the brick wall close to the ground that was covered by the shadow.
"This... seems to be a newly dug hole?!" Chiba Makoto immediately shined the divine light stick that temporarily served as a flashlight at the hole. What was exposed behind the brick wall was moist soil. It was obvious that the hole had just been dug out. How long, and it is very wide, enough for a little piglet to enter and exit freely. It is so dark inside that it is impossible to see how deep it is.
"What kind of hole is this? A pangolin?" Chiba Cheng measured the hole and felt that he could have gotten in no matter how thin he was. Judging from the neatness of the cave, it didn't look like it was dug by a machine. It should be an animal. It can be dug with its claws, but which animal can dig out a brick wall until it is only broken into pieces, bite off an electrical cable, and escape unscathed.
The reason why we decided to escape unscathed was because there was nothing else on the ground except these blackened ashes. Even high-voltage electricity could not electrocute such a large animal, leaving only a little bit of ashes.
"Can Ebron monsters dig holes?" A huge rat flashed through Chiba Cheng's mind, but King Morat mutated by eating garbage filled underground, and the location where it appeared was a suburban zoo, but This is a bustling urban area.
What's more, only the Ebron monster needs to absorb a lot of electricity. The garbage-filled and mutated King Morat eats meat, but that monkey doesn't seem to be able to dig holes.
Will it? No?
Chiba Cheng was confused. He really couldn't figure out what it was for a while. He could only continue to scan the cave. Finally, under the illumination of the divine light rod, he found a few tiny hairs stuck to the wet soil. Those with weak eyes probably wouldn't be able to see it, but this is indeed the only clue.
Chiba Cheng carefully dug out the piece of mud, then wrapped it and the ashes on the ground in two balls of paper towels. He took a few photos with his mobile phone, and then left the underground and returned to the ground.
It was still dark outside, and the power had not been restored due to the disappearance of the arc. The electric workers drove their coworkers to the hospital. Only Maya was left standing next to the cable well, waiting anxiously when she saw Chiba Makoto. He stuck his head out and stepped forward quickly.
Chiba Cheng briefly described what he saw underground and said: "I think it was a mutated creature that did it. Let's go to a place with a signal and notify the victory team."
At this time, in the TPC Far East Headquarters base, the victory team had just finished a day's work, that is, they were sitting boredly in the command room on standby. Except for the personnel on duty, everyone else went back to rest. But before they reached the door, someone picked up When notified, return to the command room immediately.
This kind of behavior of making people work overtime right after getting off work would be scolded by employees behind their backs in other units, and they would even pretend not to know or hear.嗗洮洮
