"Fuck! My god, what's going on here? Fage, come take a look, I just took my eyes off the water level gauge for two hours, and it's already dropped by five meters. What in the world is this about? Even in a drought year, the level doesn't drop more than five or six meters! How can it drop five meters overnight..."
Zhang Li, the on-duty monitoring staff at the Water Resources Bureau, widened his eyes and reviewed the water level data several times, completely stunned.
"Impossible! Ah Li, you must have read it wrong, mistaking 0.5 meters for 5 meters, right? Even in a drought year, the water level couldn't drop this much in just two hours! Unless someone suddenly built a hydroelectric dam upstream in this time and blocked the water."
Another on-duty staff member, Qiu Zhifa, spoke dismissively.
