6. Falling
I was ready to board the plane, and I received a message from Lan Jie, saying that I was sorry for disturbing my life and that I didn't have to look for her, but I still didn't feel at ease, since the tickets were bought, if she was really fine, I would take a break.
A teenage girl doll quarreled with her mother, waking me up from her sleep, her father was also helpless, I listened to a rough idea, my parents thought that her academic performance was declining and worried about whether it was early love or something. Her father nodded to us in apology when he saw that he had disturbed the rest of the others, and I smiled and nodded, and the little girl turned her head and glared at me fiercely.
I hurriedly stopped looking over, the girl wore a white shirt on her upper body, a red and black plaid shoulder, a black princess bobo skirt on her lower body, high socks and brown leather shoes, and a pair of ponytails.
Boom· The crowd in the cabin exclaimed, and then everyone began to talk and agitate.
A moment the cockpit radio went off, and the captain said that he was entering a storm cloud, and that there might be a few minutes of jolting, and I opened the window blinds to see a dense black cloud all around the wings.
Two flight attendants came out of the lounge at the nose of the plane, looking a little nervous but smiling, comforting the passengers and urging us to fasten our seatbelts along the way.
Boom· I heard someone screaming behind me, I wanted to look back, for a moment the plane trembled violently, the oxygen mask bounced out of it, the whole plane shook, I saw the girl's mother holding the girl's head tightly, the whole cabin was chaotic and noisy, the plane tilted and I was almost hanging, and a lot of debris flew into the air.
The jolting lasted for about ten seconds, the screams and abnormal noises subsided slightly, I felt the seat stabilize after a series of slight shaking, I felt the vibration coming from the wings, the plane is now also beginning to become stable, everyone looked at each other, obviously the situation just now made them frightened, I reached out and grabbed the oxygen mask that was fluttering back and forth, at this time the sound of the radio sounded again, and the two flight attendants also staggered out of the flight attendant lounge, and helped the passengers get life jackets from under the seats with solemn faces.
Seeing this, I understood, the captain apologized to everyone during the broadcast, and I didn't bother to listen to the rest, and the crying and noisy swearing overshadowed the sound of the broadcast.
I opened the shutter on the window again, the engine under the left wing was emitting black smoke and sporadic fire, I pulled the shutter, instinctively unfastened my seat belt, I couldn't let more people see this scene, it would bring more chaos, I reached out from a compartment under the seat and pulled out the life jacket and put it on, an old couple sitting next to me hugged each other, I wanted to stop talking.
A few men, like me, unbuckled their seat belts and stood up, the flight attendant who came back from the back of the cabin saw us shouting for us to sit down, but no one paid attention to it at all, I held on to the seat and walked in the direction of the nose, I guessed that the plane was going to make a forced landing on the sea, instinctively told me to go in the direction of the nose a little higher, at this time most of the people were wearing life jackets and sitting in the seats, the couple and their daughter too, they looked at me in amazement.
I can't take responsibility for their lives, so I can't persuade them to unbuckle and follow me.
Just as my hand was about to touch the door of the lounge in front of me, a violent tremor shook me to the ground, and I felt a huge pressure on my back that made it impossible for me to get up, and then I flew to the top and hit the roof of the cabin so hard that I almost fainted, and I saw many people flying into the air in horror. I slammed on a man who had already fainted, and there was a series of loud bangs, and my ears were ringing and tingling, and a deep blue and water vapor came from behind, and the tail of the plane and the passengers behind it were gone.
The rumbling rain overshadowed the screams, and for a moment I was lifted up by the sea, many of them grabbed and screamed at each other, and some were stunned, and some of them were stunned, and they didn't have time to unbuckle their seat belts and sink into the water, and most of them were stunned by the impact of the forced fall.
The sea water that rushed in from the tail of the plane made the broken body begin to sink rapidly, probably because the cab was sealed and there was no water, so the tail of the plane began to stand up a little bit after the sea water poured in, and the air was compressed to the nose side, and more than a dozen people floated in this space isolated by the sea water like me, gasping for breath in the floating debris, beating and shouting in panic to find a chance to live.
I looked down at the water below, the lights in the cabin were still on, even if it was sunk into the water, I saw a lot of people being trapped alive in the seats and struggling, it was like a hellish scene, their life jackets were falling up, but the seat belts were shackling them to the seats, I took off the life jackets and dived, I saw that the girl was still struggling, I unfastened her seat belt, and she floated up. I went to unbuckle her mother's seat belt, and the buckle was obscured by the body of the already fainting couple clinging to each other, and I had to come up to breathe.
The girl gasped for breath and did not scream, and her eyes looked around with trepidation, apparently frightened. The waves of the storm hit the body, and the waves of the water went down her head, and she was like a chick that had fallen into the water.
The plane was still sinking, the broken body began to sink into the dark seabed, when I was about to dive again, bang, the cockpit door was opened from the inside, for a moment the strong air pressure shattered the glass in front of the cockpit, the sea water in the cabin began to rise again, I knew that I could no longer dive to save people, so I quickly fished over a life jacket and put it on, pulled the girl's life jacket to swim to the water surface of the lounge hatch, I and the others pushed, some of them punched me on the head and cursed, I also punched back.
As the water approached the door of the rest pod, a flight attendant pulled the curtain, her face pale, holding my hand, and she reached out to pull the man in the water. I went into the lounge and lifted the girl up with my hand, standing on the bulkhead. I took a look, a dozen or so survivors were standing wet in the rising water, people couldn't wait to reach for the cockpit door, the sea water had begun to pour in through the broken cockpit front window, but the cockpit was empty, the body was sinking rapidly, and the flashes of light proved that the rainstorm outside was still continuing.
People swam out of the broken windows one by one with their breath closed, floating on the rough night sea.
In the waves of the rainstorm like a leaf swaying in the wind, how to roll or drift with the current, I looked back, the body had already completely sunk into the deep water, the lights in the cabin flickered a few times, after a moment the waves became dark, the lightning flashed I could no longer see a few people floating on the sea, the churning waves and the torrential rain made me unable to open my eyes, at this time the girl seemed to ease up a little, gasping in horror and not crying, one hand was holding on to my life jacket, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
