The Lost Mermaid [Zhongyingmei]

"George? No, the person I'm looking for is Joey Love." Doris' eyes were fixed on Mike's mouth, hoping he could tell her more.

"Joelov... the name is very familiar." Mike frowned and murmured.

"He used to be the person next to Cal Hockley." 1900 added, "You must remember the last time Doris... had an accident, and he was the culprit!" He subconsciously lowered his voice when he said "something happened" sound.

Not many people knew about this incident, and he didn't want to tell everyone about it.

"Ah! I remember this man! Let me think about—" His eyelashes quivered rapidly, and he blinked, remembering earnestly.

Mike turned around and walked towards the other violinist, and the two gathered together to discuss in a low voice.

Doris looked at their expressionless faces, secretly anxious in her heart.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the expression on Mike's face to relax slightly, and the Sichuan character between his eyebrows also smoothed out.

Mike showed Doris a faint smile, and strode over: "Charles and I confirmed that we did see a man with a leg injury in the third-class public bathroom on the E floor. Weak, I heard the man next to him call him George...something, when he was being laughed at by the public bathroom people for his limp! Thinking about it now, this should be the man you're looking for."

Mike suddenly realized that the word "lame" seemed to be a kind of pain to the girl in front of him, and bit his own tongue knowing that he had slipped his words.

"Layer E." Doris repeated the word, silently memorizing it.

1900 nodded, and held Mike's hand: "Thank you! Thank you! Fortunately, you are here, so we don't have to search around aimlessly throughout the ship."

"It's my honor, Danny, you don't have to be polite to me, but Miss Doris." Mike looked at Doris with soft and concerned eyes, "Are you feeling better? What happened last time really made us I was taken aback. We will help you find out the culprit, Joeylov, and vent your anger on you!"

Without waiting for Doris to answer, Mike continued, "And that Carl Hockley! Joey Love must have been instructed by this damned vampire to—"

"I didn't order him to do anything to hurt Doris." Carl's voice came from the door.

Doris turned her head and saw him leaning against the door frame with his arms folded on his chest, with no expression of joy or anger on his face.Mike strode forward and stood in front of Doris: "Mr. Hockley? This is the lounge of the orchestra. You don't have our permission and you don't have the right to come in and eavesdrop on our conversation!"

The musicians also stood up one after another and walked slowly towards here.

Carl shrugged, spread his hands and said, "I didn't 'step into' your lounge, as for 'overhearing', I think I have the right to know my—" Carl got stuck, he wanted to say Doris It was his fiancée, but he couldn't speak in front of her.

"—I am a shareholder of the Titanic, and I think I have the right to enter and exit any public space on the ship."

He abruptly changed his reason.

Mike looked at 1900 and Doris, and seeing that they were not hostile to Hockley, he knew he had misunderstood.

He coughed dryly and changed the subject: "Since you want to find Joey Love, why not come to the dance party on Deck E. Almost every night, the passengers in the third-floor cabin on E-floor will be willing to leave a few people to live together In the small room, come to the big restaurant to drink some wine, listen to music, dance and have some fun. Such an atmosphere will not make Chouilov feel that you are after him, and we can also take the opportunity to inquire about his residence! "

The more he talked, the more he felt that this idea was good, and he smiled at Doris and said, "We are planning to go to the E floor to perform accompaniment for the enthusiastic audience. I heard from Danny that your playing skills are not inferior to his, but I am I want to see what kind of musical talent the Boardman family has!"

"Okay!"

"no!"

Doris's willingness to agree and Karl's refusal sounded at the same time.

"How can Doris play for those inferior people? The music flowing from her fingertips should belong to the great hall, not the stinking inferior cabin!" Carl refused bluntly, he looked down on the violinist The attitude of pretending to be a gentleman and the coveted eyes he looked at Doris.

Carl's anger ignited at once, like a monster whose territory has been violated.

But his aggressive and contemptuous words made the musicians in the lounge look weird, and some even snorted in disgust and anger out of the blue.

Doris bit her lip and looked at 1900: "Let's go, go to Deck E...Brother, I am willing to bring happy music to people, whether they have money or not! As you said , the best reward for us is the genuine smile on people's faces!"

After finishing speaking, 1900 nodded, pushed Doris' wheelchair and brought his musician friends out of the lounge.

One by one they passed Cal Hockley, his head bowed, wondering what he was thinking.

The layout of the E deck is more like the world of the poor than the D deck.

The long Scotch Road pierced the port side, already crowded with people.Unlike the VIPs in the first class and the respectable people in the second class, their clothes are dusty, just like the wandering painters when they were on the shore with Jack, the fabric is hard and rough, and the small patches are faintly visible.

Hair of various colors surged, forming a messy and lively scene.

When the musicians hugged their instruments and walked down the stairs together, there was a burst of enthusiastic cheers and whistles from the crowd.

"Oh! You are here! Come up, we can't wait!" A black man jumped down from the table, showing two rows of white teeth. He patted 1900 and Mike on the back vigorously, laughing loudly.

But when he saw the slender Doris sitting in the wheelchair, he instantly became at a loss, "God! You brought a lady! Oh! Hello, I'm Bruce—Danny's Friend." He smirked and scratched his head, not knowing what to do to be polite.

Oh, God!It's a girl!Still a weak girl!Not a rough kid like Danny!

1900 just smiled and deliberately did not help him, but was angrily attacked by Bruce's elbow.

He pretended to cough and introduced them: "This is my sister, Doris. She is also a skilled pianist. She is very interested in the dance here. We can give her the dance music tonight." !"

Doris smiled and greeted Bruce, but Bruce didn't feel any discomfort with her terrifying voice that was different from ordinary people.

The musicians greeted the jubilant crowd familiarly, and climbed onto the table one by one on the stools.

Doris was pushed in front of a simple piano by 1900, and he also got down beside her—it seems that he only planned to play with four hands!Doris nodded tacitly with him.

The four hands were raised high, and the chaotic human voice fell silent instantly.

"Bang——" the passionate piano sound slammed down like steel falling on the ground, hitting everyone's hearts and kicking off the prelude to the carnival of the night.

The feeling full of metal is played fluently, and the slight out of tune will not let others notice.People quickly moved to the music, and the young dancers in red dresses jumped onto the table without worrying about being exposed. The fluffy skirts drew blooming roses in the air.

Whistles and screams also erupted immediately.

The rhythm of the music was getting faster and faster. Violins, flutes and trumpets followed the rhythm of the piano to join the grand banquet, and the crowd was accompanied by the sound of broken whistles and harmonicas.

The rhythm is determined by the cheers of the people, no matter men, women or children, they clap the table excitedly.

No matter how many people there are, there will eventually be a unified rhythm and tune.

The gradually out-of-control people were no longer satisfied with dancing on the ground, more and more people climbed onto the table, twisting their bodies excitedly with the rhythm.

Looking at their carefree faces, Doris couldn't help but smile.

Both her and 1900's fingers played faster and faster. After a burst of smooth portamento, the intense and exciting dance music came to an abrupt end.

Then, the violin joined in, and the music became soft and romantic.

1900 took a deep breath, caressed the keys relaxedly, and matched the poetic romance of the violin one by one.

Doris stopped.

She slowly put her hands on her knees, her heart was beating extremely fast, and at this moment she finally relaxed slowly.Doris turned her head and searched for a familiar figure in the crowd—as expected, Karl would never leave her sight.

He frowned slightly, and leaned against the pillar beside him, not participating in the cheerful dance of the people.The waiter handed him a wine glass, but he didn't take it, and waved his hand in disgust.

In fact, he looked uncomfortable, even a little overwhelmed.

Doris secretly laughed.

She manipulated the wheelchair and gradually withdrew from the range of the band.

When Carl was coldly rejecting the invitation of a promiscuous dancer again, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the piano - where was Doris!

Carlton panicked for a moment, his eyes searched the crowd like eagles, but the moving heads and writhing bodies occupied all his vision!Doris has always been sitting in a wheelchair, she is much shorter than ordinary people, where can she find it now!

Karl is getting more and more anxious, but on the E floor, there is still Joey Love, a person who may come out to do bad things at any time!

Where did Doris go?Did she meet Joey Love?Is she in danger?what do I do?

Karl looked around in a panic, his heart was instantly filled with countless questions.

Suddenly, his hand was held softly.

"Carl, I'm here."

To Carl, Doris' voice was like a breath of fresh air that a drowning person steals before suffocation. Carl's eyes were red and fixed on Doris's face, which startled her.

"What's wrong? Ka—" Doris was hugged tightly by him.

Doris did not expect that Karl would be so excited.She could clearly feel that the person holding her was trembling almost all over. He tried his best, as if he wanted to rub her into his arms and into his heart.

His grip was so tight that Doris felt a sting, but she didn't struggle.

Doris turned her face away and buried her face in his neck.

Goosebumps appeared on Carl's skin for an instant, and he froze for a moment, feeling his heartbeat becoming more and more intense with the romantic and sentimental sound of the violin, he slowly turned his face away.

Cold lips pressed against her cold neck.

Their embrace was unobtrusive among the half-embraced dancing crowd.

Suddenly, Carl felt a tingle in his scalp, and Doris' fingers tightened stiffly.

"Hiss—Doris?"

"I saw him!" Doris was in his arms, and her body became a little stiff.

Carl gave a low cry, let go of Doris, and turned his head to look.

Chouilov's face disappeared into the crowd in an instant.

After Karl and Doris looked at each other, the charming atmosphere disappeared instantly, and Karl immediately turned and ran towards that direction.

1900 Seeing Karl running towards the other side in a hurry and rudely pushing away many dancing people, he expected that he should have seen Joey Love.

He also quickly jumped off the piano bench and rushed in that direction.

The men and women hugging and dancing were cursed angrily after being pushed away inexplicably again.

In an instant, the long corridor became chaotic, and the chickens were flying around.
