Chapter 348: Maritime Crisis (1)
The ship is still moving forward, but it is out of control.
Outside the door of the main control room, the captain, whose hands were tied behind his back, looked at the chief engineer who came up freely with the robbers in disbelief, and was suddenly shocked in horror.
A ship sails in the boundless sea, a relatively closed small society. The captain is undoubtedly the supreme commander here. However, there is actually an equivalent to him, and that is the chief engineer. His authority is so high that it is even higher than that of the captain in terms of power systems......
For example, he can choose to stop the engine at any time.
"Let them open the door!" the barrel of the black hole poked into Captain Richard's head. It made him shiver.
Captain Richard took a deep breath and looked at the two blue eyes peeking out of the other man's hood, which looked familiar.
"What are you looking at?
The tall robber threw a punch and hit him in the stomach.
Richard grunted and bent over in pain. Because his hands were tied behind his back, he couldn't even hold the door. The rickety body is particularly exaggerated.
"Don't do it yet!" The blue-eyed man reached out and helped the captain up: "Call the door!"
47-in-case steel doors and multi-layer vacuum gap bulletproof glass are standard. Not only that, but in fact, even shoulder-resistant rockets can't be pierced.
"Open the door, open the door......" the captain shouted weakly through the glass. It was as if he hadn't recovered from the blow of that punch just now. Richard spent many years at sea and was a captain for nearly a decade. I've seen a lot of the world, and I'm not scared by this kind of scene at all.
He knew the strength of the protection of the control room of the main control cabin, and knew that the person who dared to rob the cruise ship was not a brainless fool. Therefore, he was very sure that these robbers would not kill him, and that the crew members who had received the warning would carry out crisis operations in accordance with the emergency plan......
Half of the walls in the main control room are transparent glass, so it's clear what's going on outside. Not to mention, the captain warned all the staff on the walkie-talkie early in the morning.
"Untie his rope. Blue-eyed was clearly the leader, and as soon as he spoke, Richard's tied hands shifted from behind to front.
"Slam the door, keep calling the door, if you can't open it, you'll die today." Blue eyes approached Richard's eyes and said viciously.
Richard could only clench his hands into fists and slam the door without a moment. Shouting while smashing......
Naturally, Blue-Eyes wouldn't pin his hopes on him, a guy who clearly didn't intend to cooperate.
He directly picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted in English: "Quick! Catch two Europeans for me and come to me......
Hearing this, Richard changed color slightly, and the blue-eyed man snorted and sneered: "I will kill your passengers here one by one in front of you." Smear their blood on the glass, and you may be able to open the door a little faster!"
It's hard to say whether the door is fast or not. Richard's call for the door suddenly became faster anyway, he kept shouting the German word 'hurry, hurry, hurry' in his mouth, and slammed the door with his hand 'bang, bang, bang'. Loud and rhythmic......
The blue-eyed man bowed slightly, as if he was satisfied with his 'work efficiency'.
However, when he glanced into the main control room with his falcon-like eyes, he sensed that something was wrong.
The crew inside had been working like tepid water since their arrival. After the destruction of this signal tower, they couldn't even notify the shore and didn't know what to do. But they all lowered their heads, and occasionally glanced through the glass at the people outside of them, but they didn't react. As if they didn't exist. The psychological quality does not look ordinary.
And at this moment, Captain Richard knocked on the door, and everything changed inside.
Everyone's injuries began to speed up, and the three leaders were still gathered together to discuss something. Through the glass, I feel that their discussion is very intense!
The blue-eyed man had a bad feeling in his heart, kicked Richard to the ground, and then pulled over the chief engineer who had already turned back. "What's going on!" they are trapped inside, what else can they do?"
The chief engineer's face turned pale, he looked at it tremblingly for a while, and replied: "It may be that he is contacting ships within a certain range of passing.......
"What? Isn't the power cut off from the signal tower? How can there be a radio!"
The chief engineer was grabbed by the collar, and the thin man waved his hand in a panic: "IāI don't know......!
Another man also lifted the captain from the ground. Let's ask together.
After three or five minutes of scolding, Captain Richard's face turned blue and purple. It was only then that the chief engineer suddenly remembered: "This ship was refurbished ten years ago, and the signal tower was installed at that time. The ship's radio station before that may not have been dismantled!"
Blue Eyes glanced at the captain and confirmed the matter from the look in his eyes. He kicked him again, pulled out his radio intercom, and shouted, "Hurry up! Bring me hostages!"
He was a little angry.
Soon a voice came back, a little hesitant: "Do we need to take hostages on our side too?"
"As long as you can control the scene. Blue Eyes replied.
......
Tang Wen pulled Zhou Xiaoyu and Xu Na to squat next to the cabinet against the wall. There are two dinner knives hidden in his sleeves. Squinting your eyes, calmly waiting for the moment, after two minutes. Just move your legs. Prevents muscle stiffness.
Zhou Xiaoyu and the two girls looked at him worriedly.
He smiled comfortingly at the two of them, and said in a low voice: "This ship has tens of thousands of square meters of construction space. The men came suddenly, and there was almost no warning on board. I guess I don't know how to get in. So the number of people will definitely not be large. This means that they can't control all the areas, and will probably only be able to control a few public places. That is to say, as long as we escape to the cabin, they will not bother to search one by one, because they don't have the manpower and energy to ......."
"That's not going to work! Let's hide, okay? Don't take any chances. Xu Na grabbed his wrist tightly, her eyes pleading.
Tang Wen patted her hand: "Don't worry, I won't be stupid." With you by my side, I will spare my life more than the emperor. Not impulsive. ā
As he said this, his eyes were still sharp. Xu Na had no bottom in her heart, so Tang Wen had to whisper to her about Wang Shan.
After speaking, the two women were slightly surprised. At the same time, I remembered one thing: 'No wonder Sister Cai Wei said to guard against Wang Shan. It turns out that the two still have such a story. ā
Tang Wen continued: "It's too unsafe here, I'll see if we can create a little chaos, and then we can take advantage of the chaos to go back to the guest room......"
Just as the three of them were talking, there was a commotion in the hall from the doorway.
Tang Wen looked intently and found that the robbers had begun to communicate with the hostages. As if asking for nationality.
ā...... I don't want to go with you. God, help me!"
A woman, apparently a native English speaker, suddenly screamed and got up, and fled from the position in the door in the direction of Tang Wen and them.
