The ice inside hits the glass wall and the whisky slides over the tip of the tongue.He hummed and rocked, happy and leisurely in his captain's cabin.
He is in his 60s this year, and after taking charge of the maiden voyage of the Titanic, he is ready to retire.
Of course, old guys who don't want to socialize can always be forgiven, can't they?
Suddenly, a violent shaking sensation came.
The screeching sound of rubbing and the falling of huge objects resounded through the night sky...
On the deck, the flying tiny ice chips gave off countless dazzling brilliance under the illumination of the light, and the large pieces of ice were knocked away from the iceberg, causing a lot of air bubbles in the sea water.
Smith looked at his hand dully, his phone rang.
5 minutes ago on deck.
The observer was chatting funny jokes with his companions on duty beside him, discussing the difference between British and American girls, chatting deeper, and starting to talk about men and beds.
The night was frighteningly cold, so the two of them had no choice but to use the fiery chat in their words to comfort the boring and cold time.
Talking and talking, the young man who was listening blinked his eyes vigorously and looked behind his companion, his expression changed from light to serious——
"That is……!"
He shouted, and pushed his companion to turn around sharply, pointing forward with trembling fingers!
"iceberg!"
The tone of his voice changed, he grabbed the bell behind him and shook it desperately, and another person picked up the phone: "Bastard! Answer the phone quickly! Hurry up!"
The whole ship woke up instantly since the two of them started.
Hearing the alarm, the helmsman hurriedly put on his clothes. He waited for the commander to issue an order, and the crew rushed into the cab.
"Icebergs found!"
"Quickly turn right, quick! Quickly!"
The helmsman turned the steering wheel quickly, the assistant pulled the ship's clock tightly, the handle pulled back desperately, and the speedometer pointed to the full-speed backward direction.
In the boiler room, the stoker threw down the hot soup and shouted to the bell of the ship's bell, "Get up! Hurry! Rewind at full speed!"
The red light of the alarm is flashing, and the siren is blaring!
"Is the rudder full?"
"It's full!"
"Hurry up! Lower the steam pressure, fast!"
The workers threw the air valve control wheel and turned it hard, causing the air pressure to drop rapidly.
The alarm continued to flash.
"Close the boiler throttle valve!"
Underwater, the speed of the three propeller blades slowed down, "Okay! Now, go backwards!"
Workers are waiting beside each crankshaft, and now, they manually reverse the crankshaft...
Underwater, the stationary propeller blades finally began to turn in the opposite direction.
Unfortunately, the Titanic was too heavy, and the huge steel beast was indifferent to the actions of the tiny humans, and it continued to slide forward on its own.
Captain Smith stood in the cabin, listening to the replies from all directions, and then giving orders one by one, listening again, and giving them again.
The old man's adrenaline surged, which brought him back to the memory of fighting against huge waves when he was young.It's a pity that the ship is still young, but he is old.
The boat is still moving forward.
Because the iceberg itself floats on water, the impact of two opposing forces is very destructive.
The iceberg didn't just hit the outer layer, it cut through the entire side of the hull like an ice blade.The metal hull is very fragile, so to speak, vulnerable.The brackets and steel beams are like building blocks in a baby's hand, and they fall apart when touched.
The part below the waterline is unzipped, pouring tons and tons of seawater into the cabin.
All the dust settles and the iceberg is gone.
Smith quickly came to the side of the ship, and the scattered ice on the deck surface was at least several tons: "Call the woodworker to overhaul."
"Yes."
At this time, the third-class cabin began to flood, but the people in the second-class and first-class cabins didn't know anything about it.
However, someone still heard the conversation between the captain and the mate in the corner of the ship's side.
Bang bang bang!
Mori Yuesha got up from the easel and opened the hatch.Ruth stood at the door wet, her hair dripping wet and sticking to her scalp.
"Miss Rose?"
"Save Jack!" Ruth called out, but was dragged into the house by Mori Yuesha.
She sat on the sofa indifferently, and Sen Yuesha thoughtfully poured her a cup of hot water and held it in her hand.
"what happened?"
"Carl... it's Carl! He framed Jack with gems and they, they took him!"
Ruth talked about the heart of the ocean intermittently.
"You mean Mr. Carr instructed his servant, the guy named Leger, to frame Jack?"
Ruth nodded pitifully.
Sen Yuesha stood up and put on her shoes. Suddenly, she remembered the iceberg that Ruth said when she first entered the door: "Just now, what happened to the boat?"
Ruth woke up like a dream, her eyes widened:
"Yes! It hit an iceberg!"
Moriyukisha: Arrietty, please stop talking in the future.
…………
Captain Smith and the first mates gathered around, watching Andrew walk into the captain's room with a roll of blueprints.
Andrew is the designer of the boat.
"The water level has also risen to fifteen feet above the keel." The man slid rough fingers on the drawings, the captain's cabin was silent, only a few people were breathing heavily: "The bottom, the three cabins and the No. [-] boiler room have been destroyed. flooded."
The first mate nodded to Captain Smith, who had just visited with the engineer.
"Five cabins are now flooded," Andrew said solemnly, "This cruise ship can only withstand four cabins, and the stern will sink, and the water will flow to..."
The finger moved to the other side: "The dividing panel of the E deck, from one cabin, into another cabin, and continuing, flooding the entire cruise ship, unable to stop."
Captain Smith was expressionless, said nothing, and held the corner of the table with his palm.
As we all know, this is the final conclusion - especially this conclusion was made by the designer of the ship.
"How much time is left?" Smith asked calmly, this is the last time he can control.
"One hour." Andrew frowned and calculated carefully on the drawing: "At most, at most two hours."
Everyone present was silent.
2200 people, this is the number of people on the ship of the century.
One hour, 2000 two hundred people, the sword of Damocles has been hanging over everyone's head.
"All the crew on the ship, including you! Including you!" Captain Smith smashed the pipe in his arms to the ground, and the wood shattered. He pointed at Andrew: "Including you! Including me! Everyone, go to the deck Drop the lifeboat!"
"Go to all classes and inform passengers! Put on life jackets!"
The old man roared and stepped out the door first, like an angry lion.
Andrew sighed and followed the crew into the first-class cabin.
There, the band was playing music, and the artists were not at all aware of their future. It was a cold and gloomy seabed.
116 Chapter32 kicked... what?
At midnight, the distress signal CQD and the Titanic's call code MGY were sent out six times at short intervals.
That same night, it switched to the latest distress signal, SOS.
This was the new callsign that had just been set through the meeting, and the Titanic became the first ship to use it.
The man tapped the button heavily. At this moment, it bears the burden of 2000, [-] lives—fingers jumping nimbly, connecting all the search and rescue ships in the world!
In the vast night, invisible signals melted into countless radio waves...
Soon, the echo came.
The Frankfurt, the Virginia, the Temples, the Burmese...the radio signals kept coming, but they were all out of reach.
"Recall. Borrowed Fairy."
Sen Yuesha followed Ruth through the crowd. In the palm of her hand, countless light spots came from all directions and gathered together to form a card.
On her shoulders, two small dots of light exploded.
Arrietty and Quinna jumped out of it.
"I just sent someone to find you in your cabin!" Arrietty looked anxious, but Kunna on the other shoulder was very dull.
She clapped her hands with peace of mind: "Let me tell you, Her Majesty will take back the cards in times of crisis. We just need to do our own thing and wait for the call."
Arrietty had to say that this time, Quinna's decision was much more correct than her own.She nodded at the other, but Kunna snorted and turned away from her.
Moriyukisha raised the card and looked at it.
"Are they all here?"
Arrietty answered affirmatively: "Yes, Her Majesty. We must answer your call. Now, it's safe."
Moriyuesha pointed to Ruth who was rushing in the distance: "I have something to deal with, you two go back to the courtyard first."
The two fairies turned into light spots and re-entered the card.
In the first-class cabin, Moriyue Shayao followed Ruth through the crowd. After she dealt with the attendant, she kept falling behind Ruth.Watching the girl run towards Carl Hockley anxiously, and then——
Got a loud slap.
Snapped!
"You little girl! Slut!" Carl was furious, and threw himself on Ruth like a madman, almost breaking her arm!
