Survive with the beautiful girl

The girl's eyes were full of expectation, and she was actually worried as well. However, her family's long-term elite education enabled her to maintain basic composure.

This is something that Xiaoci Mu Liucheng, who came from an ordinary family, could not compare to. He took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mentality.

He walked up to Kaguya Shinomiya and saw that she was marking something on the southern part of the island map.

“There are huge cement water structures here that control flood flows on the southern flats. There are also large underground areas with water and shade.

If nothing unexpected happens, the group of velociraptors will most likely build their nest here."

Following the girl's tender jade finger pointing on the map, Xiao Ci Mu Liu Cheng suddenly thought that the direction of the power plant was also in the south.

"The power plant uses geothermal power and is also built in the south. If I remember correctly, the principle is to use underground hot water and steam as power.

But the power plant over there doesn't have a channel for steam eruption. Could it be that the channel is blocked or there is a mechanical failure...

Is that why the park management system has been unable to activate its main energy source?"

Kokorogi Ryuo expressed her guess, and after discussing it with Shinomiya Kaguya, they decided to tell Hayasaka Ai and the others about this guess.

As the girls explored deeper, the parallel pipes on the nearby walls seemed to gradually emit a faint vapor.

The wall lamps on the concrete walls flickered due to the water vapor escaping from the pipes.

Relying on the location of the passage in her memory, Jabami Yumeko led the girls towards the underground connecting passage between the bunker and the power plant.

The steam in the passage became thicker and thicker, and the hearts of all the girls present were lifted. Everyone knew the consequences of a blockage in the steam pipeline that could support the electricity of the entire island.

The potential risk of steam explosion made everyone nervous, and Kaguya Shinomiya and Ryuichi Kokoro on the other end of the walkie-talkie were praying in their hearts.

There is no surveillance installed inside the bunker passage. Their lighting equipment and power plant seem to be another power supply system, but the system in the control room is currently unable to manage the modules of the power plant.

Xiao Chi Mu Liu Cheng, who knew nothing about their actual situation, could only judge the situation based on the content of the conversation on the walkie-talkie.

After the teeth-grinding sound of a door being pushed open, Yukinoshita's cool and reassuring voice came from the other end of the infinite phone.

“We’re here.

There is a lot of power generation equipment and underground space here... What should we do next?"

The "Encyclopedia" of Yukinoshita, who always appeared to know everything, seemed to have lost its effectiveness.

“There’s steam everywhere, be careful not to get burned!

Everyone, put on your gas masks, be careful of sulfur poisoning."

Hayasaka Ai reminded the girls to always pay attention to their own safety.

Chapter 44 Power Restart

The smell of sulfur coming from underground can already be smelled in the air.

After hearing what Hayasaka Ai said, everyone took out their gas masks and put them on under her guidance.

Further ahead, they saw steam rising from the volcanic area and walls that were reflected red by the lava in the distance.

Walking on the cement ground feels hot.

From the connecting gaps between the pipes, smoky sulfur vapor hissed out, forming wisps of steam as high as shoulders.

It made the girls feel like they were walking in hell.

“Let’s find the steam-related equipment first. Based on your description, if the power plant is operating normally, there shouldn’t be any steam leaks near the pipeline.

Please look for any equipment parts such as pressure switches nearby. If you find any text you don’t understand, please contact us.”

Xiao Ci Mu Liu Cheng on the other end of the wireless phone gave his opinion.

The person present who knew the most about the equipment was Xiao Ke Mu Liu Cheng, who had worked on the construction site with his mother when he was a child.

After hearing what her brother Liucheng said, Xiaojimu Yuzu looked around and saw a metal sign on a row of metal cabinets with a volcano logo of "GEOTHERMAL" on it.

"What does it mean?"

Yuzu pulled Yukinoshita Yukino over to the side, pointed at the sign and asked.

Yukinoshita's little hands were soft and cold, very suitable for cooling down. Yuzu felt as if her whole body was refreshed by them.

"It means geothermal."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked up along the metal cabinet with the geothermal logo. Pipes extended from one side of the metal cabinet to the ground. Above the second underground space, something that looked like an electrical cabinet stood on a metal staircase built against the wall.

Fortunately, all equipment has warning signs posted on it, and through the English signs above, one can reversely infer the original purpose of the equipment.

Yuzu Koizumi deeply felt the power of knowledge, and she made up her mind to study hard when she returned.

Yuzu took Yukinoshita Yukino and asked her questions in front of the labels of various equipment. Yukinoshita Yukino patiently explained to her the meaning of the English words.

The ones who speak the best English in this small team are probably Kaguya Shinomiya and Yukinoshita Yukino. One of them was trained as an elite since childhood and met guests from all over the world at social gatherings, and the other had the experience of studying abroad in middle school.

Hayasaka Ai and Jabami Yumeko were also searching nearby. Hayasaka Ai opened a cabinet and found something like an electric meter inside, with a stuck motor connected to the bottom.

Jabami Yumeko stared at the lava slowly flowing in the distance in a trance, fearing that only this could cause damage to the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"There's no pressure valve on this floor. Let's go up and take a look."

Hayasaka Ai suggested that there were stairs on both sides that could be climbed up.

At the right entrance to the stairs stood a metal cabinet that looked like an electrical cabinet. Except for Yukinoshita, the other girls climbed up and studied the cabinet together.

No one dared to press the button on the electrical cabinet, even though there were English instructions on it.

Jabami Yumeko contacted Shinomiya Kaguya and Okonomi Ryutoshi via walkie-talkie, and received the same helpless responses from them.

Yukinoshita Yukino was rummaging through something in the storage cabinet near the door under the stairs. She found a dusty maintenance manual in the corner of the cabinet and the sundries.

After quickly flipping through the manual in her hand, Yukino's lips curled up happily.

Yukinoshita raised her head and waved to the girls at the top of the stairs, revealing an icy smile of relief.

“I found it!

This manual contains solutions to common power plant problems.

The electrical control panel is on the stairs where you are, and the thickest pipe connection in the front is the pressure switch.

All steam must be exhausted before closing and restarting the circuit, otherwise the capacitor will be overloaded, which will cause serious danger. "

After hearing what Yukinoshita Yukino said, Hayasaka Ai and her group came to the pressure switch in front of the pipeline according to her request, and sure enough, they saw a large valve wheel. They must have thought that this was the pressure valve they were looking for.

Yuzu Koizumi tried to turn the huge switch, but the pressure valve didn't move at all.

"I don't think even the three of us can make it move. Maybe I need to call my brother over."

Yuzu Kokonogi called out to Yukinoshita.

"Wait a minute, let me take a look."

The pipeline where the pressure valve is located is just above the flowing lava, surrounded only by a row of flat guardrails. The girls wearing gas masks are sweating all over, and the heat is a little unbearable.

"It says here that the capacitors must be charged before the circuit can be closed, and that the power can be turned off by pressing the "on" button on the power console...

Hmm... I found it. The pressure valve has a transmission device that can control its opening and closing.

Look around there to see if there is any transmission device.

Forcibly turning the pressure valve may damage the equipment."

Yukinoshita Yukino continued to turn the page, "The transmission device is a motor, let me see...

If the motor is damaged, the motor must be disconnected before the pressure valve can be manually controlled."

Hayasaka Ai leaned on the guardrail, pointed at the cabinet in front of the gap under the pipe where steam was spewing out, and said to Yukinoshita Yukino: "The motor is in the cabinet that I opened earlier."

This went much more smoothly. They walked into the compartment of the cabinet and squatted down to take a closer look. Just as Hayasaka Ai said, it seemed that something was stuck in the motor.

No, it's probably the motor that's burned out, causing the jam.

In order to verify her judgment, Yukinoshita Yukino carefully checked the motor and compared it with the description in the manual, and was sure that the motor had been burned out and was completely useless.

She saw that the motor looked like it could move back and forth and be pulled apart and replaced.

Yukino put down the manual, grabbed both sides of the motor with both hands and pulled the motor backwards with force.

"Can you try to close the pressure valve and release the steam?

The motor was broken, so I switched it to manual mode."

Upon hearing this, the three girls tried to close the pressure valve again. This time it was much easier and the white steam spewing out from the gaps in the pipes gradually became thinner.

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The three girls hurriedly left the unbearable heat near the pressure valve and sat back to back in front of the power control platform to rest.

After waiting quietly for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino explained to them the precautions for restarting the power;

"To restart the power

The switch must be pushed up four times and then pressed down to turn off the light.

After confirming that charging is complete, turn off the circuit. Then turn on the power and restart the circuit, so that the main power system can be restarted.

The three girls followed Yukinoshita Yukino's steps, and at the last step, Jabami Yumeko's eyes flashed with excitement, and under the anxious gaze of Yuzu and Hayasaka Ai, she pressed the button decisively.

The lights on the wall went dark and sparks flew.

Someone screamed, and then the light on the second underground floor of the power plant returned, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The heavy steel door creaked shut, apparently the previous act of shutting down the circuit and reopening the main power system had triggered the power plant's protective measures.

Yukinoshita Yukino hurriedly walked to the fallen iron gate. After checking it, she frowned and sighed: "The controller of the gate is burned out."

Chapter 45: Cutting Corners

There seemed to be something unusual going on on the other end of the wireless phone. The girls gathered together to discuss, and their conversation was so mixed that it was hard to hear what they were saying.

In the end, it seemed that Yukinoshita Yukino and Hayasaka Ai had discussed and reached a result. Hayasaka Ai instructed Kokoroki Ryuochi on the walkie-talkie to try switching the power supply system to see if she could remotely control the opening of the iron gate of the power plant.

After they restarted the power system, they triggered the power plant's protective measures and were temporarily trapped in the power plant.

When Kojiki Liucheng switched the surveillance footage to the control system interface, Shinomiya Kaguya moved over and sat next to him, watching his operations quietly.

Kaguya Shinomiya's hair seemed to have grown a little longer. The black hair that originally showed off her delicate ears now covered half of them. Her beautiful eyes, which seemed to be able to speak, stared at him from between the gauze that covered most of her face.
