The towering buildings and star-rated hotels stood on the summit, looking magnificent.
However, due to the power outage, it was dark.
Moreover, the wind and snow howled against them.
Before Christina and the others arrived at the hotel, they had already heard noises, including cries and
shouts.
They entered through the back door of the hotel.
Without the heating, they were shivering from cold in the room.It was crowded and dark.
Christina was trying to find Crystal and the others, while the people around her screamed, ran,
trampled, and cursed.
Fortunately, Chandler didn't walk far from the back door of the hotel.
When he saw them coming back, he immediately stepped forward.
"We seemed to hear an explosion just now, and then the power suddenly went out.Now everyone is
panicking.What happened?"
"Some of the staff in the hotel didn't quite understand what was going on.They said they were going to
turn on the backup power.But half an hour later, there is still no electricity"
Crystal hugged Geoffrey and huddled in a corner to warm each other.
The heater stopped.
They were not wearing super warm clothes to protect themselves from the cold, and now their lips were
purple from the cold.
"Let's go back to the hotel suite and get more quilts to keep warm first."
Christina did not explain the power outage.She pulled Crystal and Geoffrey towards the stairs.
Without power, no matter how high the floor was, they had to take the stairs.
Charles and Barbara followed closely behind them.
When they saw Chandler, they immediately told Chandler, "The wind and snow blew down the big trees
and hit the power supply equipment, causing an explosion.The spare power can't be used
anymore.Don't go out.The temperature outside is very low.Now hurry up and find more things to keep
warm."
Chandler's face darkened after hearing it, then he immediately followed them up the stairs.
"Christina took Crystal and Geoffrey to the suite to get the quilt..."
Barbara lived in another suite on another floor.However, at the critical moment, she did not dare to act
alone anymore.So she followed Charles and the others all the way.
"How shall we open the hotel suite.Without electricity, we cannot open the door"
When Charles climbed to the 8th floor of the hotel, he realized that many of the facilities in the hotel
were of smart intelligence.
That was to say, as long as there was a power outage, none of the facilities could be used.
Chandler was also rather anxious.
According to the original plan, even if the rescue workers at the foot of the mountain could not arrive in
time, the hotel's heating and food could be maintained for at least half a month.
So there was no need for them to panic.
Unexpectedly, the power failure worsened their plight.
When Barbara followed them to the stairs on the 12th floor of the hotel, she heard reckless crashes.
Due to the heavy snow outside, the dark clouds kept surging, and the whole sky was dark and gloomy.
The corridor on the 12th floor was also dark and invisible.
Only when they approached did they see it clearly.
Crystal held her phone as a flashlight, which shone on the door of the suite.
Next to her, Christina took off her heavy winter clothes.She picked up the emergency fire hammer and
smashed the electronic door fiercely.
Christina was also tired of hammering on the door.She dropped the sharp hammer and the door was
almost loosened.She took three steps back and kicked the electronic door open.
Barbara was dumbfounded.
Christina panted tiredly, sweat oozing from her forehead.She pointed to the room.
"Get all the blankets.I have a fully charged charger and a lighter in my bag.."
Charles and the others also ran over quickly.
Chandler hugged Geoffrey's frozen little body and immediately wrapped Geoffrey tightly with a down
quilt.
Charles also used his cell phone flashlight to look for something to use.
As for Christina smashing the electronic door of the hotel, it was no surprise to them.
In such a harsh environment, only by being decisive rather than delicate could they survive.
"Thank you."
Barbara walked to Christina and suddenly thanked her, "I was in the cable car just now.I really
appreciate you and Charles for not leaving.You saved us."
Christina was rummaging through the drawer for a lighter.She turned to look at Barbara and thought for
a while.
"You're welcome"
"It's not that I'm so kind-hearted.It's just that I saw you.If I didn’t save you, I'll feel guilty.It has nothing to
do with who you are."
Watching Christina busy looking for the lighter, Barbara had mixed feelings.If it had been her, she
would have run away.It was not an obligation to save others.
In such a bad snowstorm, most people would only save themselves.
"The quilt is not enough for us to keep warm-"
Chandler touched Geoffrey's cold body and said worriedly, "If we drag on like this for less than three
hours, the elders and the children in the hotel will have a high fever and get sick"
Even the rescue workers at the foot of the mountain would not have thought that the hotel had a
sudden power outage, which further worsened the situation.
Time passed minute by minute, and the people were in greater danger.
Charles was both anxious and annoyed.
"The operation in this hotel is so inefficient! That fucking person in charge, Ray, is really
incompetent.Why does it take so long to find people to go up the mountain to rescue us?"
Chandler suddenly thought of something.
He grabbed Charles's arm and asked anxiously, "Is there a satellite phone in the hotel now?"
"Is the satellite phone with Ray?"
"We can contact Patrick by satellite phone.No matter how strong the snowstorm is, Patrick's
subordinates are efficient and will definitely send people over soon"
When Chandler said this, he subconsciously looked at Christina.
Christina was expressionless and her eyes were fixed on something.
Charles replied angrily, "It's useless!"
"How can it be useless? Patrick knows we're on vacation here, and Christina is here.He might have
known in advance that the weather here would worsen.As long as we tell him that there's a sudden
power outage, and we need immediate help..."
Charles's expression was oppressive and complicated, and he gritted his teeth.
"I mean, it's useless because Ray lost the last satellite phone!"
Just now, Charles saw that idiot Ray accidentally dropped the last satellite phone into the white snow.
Suddenly, no one spoke.
The silent atmosphere was depressing and suffocating.
In fact, they could have contacted Patrick from the beginning, but none of them expected that they
would not be able to hold on for long without electricity, lights, and heating.
"Mrs.Hopkins, is Mr.Hopkins coming?"
Geoffrey's face was so cold and stiff that he shrank under the quilt.He was still very weak.He suddenly
reached out his cold little hand to hold Christina's wrist.He held it very hard.
Apparently, the little guy was scared.
Christina found a red woolen hat that belonged to her from the closet.She looked at him.Her eyes were
clear and firm in the dark space.She told him frankly in a low voice, "I don't know”
As she spoke, she put the hat on Geoffrey's small head.
The woolen hat was a little big, blocking half of his small face.But at least it could keep him warm.
