Leaving takes priority for passing through the lock, and there's no rush coming back.
While waiting in line for the ferry lock, Han Yu and Xu Sanye took 002 onshore first and rode the car from the ship lock management office back to the station.
Old Qian had earlier received notice from the instructor and had boiled a large pot of water and prepared a small pot of ginger soup.
Having consumed a large bowl of ginger soup, Han Yu felt much warmer and hurried to the upper floor to get clothes for taking a bath in the washroom to the west of the canteen.
Xu Sanye thought ginger soup was for women to drink and ran into the kitchen, opened the cupboard, and found half a bottle of 53-degree liquor, downing several gulps before going back to the dorm to get clothes for a bath.
Old Qian, worried that Director Xu and Little Salted Fish would catch a cold, helped set up two bathing tents made of thin plastic film.
