Chapter 261 [Human Nature]
The fat man was stunned, and then his expression relaxed slightly: "I almost forgot, there are enough lifebuoys and life jackets on the ship...... I'm sorry, but I'm not the captain of the Jenny, after all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Lin Xuan hurriedly said: "Then what? What should we do next? We don't have much time!"
"Go to the cockpit!"
The fat man ran to the cockpit, turned on the communication equipment, and through the ship's loudspeaker, the serious tone reached everyone's ears.
"All the crew on board have told me, I'm the captain of the wheel, and now I have an emergency order!
All the wheels immediately went to the basement deck to repair the loopholes, try to reduce the rate of drainage, and delay the sinking time as much as possible!
Housekeeping is ready to go to lifeboats! You only have fifteen minutes! Hurry up!
Restaurant, I'll give you five minutes...... Oh no! Two minutes! Assemble on deck in two minutes and launch with the lifeboat!
There was also the cleaning department and other staff......"
The fat man sent down the instructions one by one, and his orderly, skillful and decisive attitude made it easy for people to think that he was the captain of the Jenny.
Now he has replaced the captain and has become the backbone of all the crew.
After saying all the instructions in one breath, he took a deep breath, then pressed his right hand on a red button, and the terrible alarm sounded!
"All the passengers listen, the Jenny's drainage tank is leaking and badly damaged, and the shipwreck is unavoidable, but don't panic, there is still plenty of time, and the Jenny has enough escape tools.
Listen, in your cabin, right under your bed, each of you has a set of life-saving equipment, life jackets and lifebuoys! Hurry up and get dressed!"
The fat man tried to make his voice sound less nervous: "The lifeboat will be ready soon, I will let you know in five minutes, please don't worry, we have plenty of time to ......"
After speaking, he hung up the communication equipment, propped his hands on the console, and smiled weakly: "I have been working on this ship for twenty years." I didn't expect to watch it sink today...... The captain is also dead......"
His face was complicated, he looked up at the sea in the distance, looked at the outlines of the two rescue ships in the distance, let out a long breath, and then glanced at Lin Xuan.
"Fortunately, the rescue boat arrived just in time, and we just had to hold on for a while. ”
"Don't count on rescue boats, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid the rescue ship won't come!"
Lin Xuan gritted his teeth, he remembered clearly, the apostle came from the direction of the rescue ship!
The fat man's face changed: "What do you mean?"
That's what it means literally. The person who bombed this cruise ship is likely to stop the rescue ship!"
The fat man glared, and then he really panicked!
He was flustered before, because he had not encountered such a sudden serious situation, first the monster and then the shipwreck, and it was inevitable that he would feel nervous and scared.
But now that the monster was suddenly gone, and he saw the rescue ship in his line of sight, the worry in his heart suddenly faded. Now that he heard that the rescue ship could not come, he was completely frightened!
The fat man stared at Lin Xuan vigilantly. A cold sweat slid down his forehead: "Who the hell are you?!"
Lin Xuan looked directly at him: "I'm a passenger of this ship, I just know a little more things, you don't have to guard against me, I just want to save people!"
Know more?
The fat man swallowed: "Do you know what those monsters were just now?"
"You know, they're all creatures of the sea, mutated into monsters by some kind of radiation. Lin Xuan told the truth.
"Who was the guy who blew up the drain tank?"
"A man. It was he who turned sea creatures into monsters. ”
"...... you" The fat man wanted to ask something, but looking at Lin Xuan's bright eyes, he hesitated, closed his mouth and didn't ask more.
He is a man who has been adrift at sea for more than 20 years, and he has seen a lot. It's not like I've never had anything strange happen to you.
Those young crew members panicked and ignored some details, but as an old crew member, he was a little calmer and more cautious, and clearly remembered that when Lin Xuan first appeared, a crew member shot him!
The bullet didn't deviate, and he watched as it hit the young man, but he didn't do anything at all!!
This young man seems to be very mysterious......
"I haven't asked you yet, how can there not be enough lifeboats for this level of luxury cruise ship?!"
Lin Xuan looked at him and said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, the lifeboats equipped on luxury cruise ships must be absolutely sufficient!"
There are hard standards for cruise ships, and they must be equipped with enough lifeboats to achieve the maximum passenger capacity, and there must be no more!
And Jenny is not only not enough, but it is also a small lifeboat that can only seat twenty people, which does not meet the standard at all!
The fat man smiled bitterly: "In the past, lifeboats were enough, but this time it should be negligent...... Safety is the direct responsibility of the captain. ”
Lin Xuan said with a dark face: "This kind of thing can also be negligent!"
The fat man sighed: "This ship has eight displacement tanks, and no one expected that four would be broken at once!"
It stands to reason that even if five are broken, there is still a drainage system on the ship, and it can be repaired to a certain extent with the mechanic team, and no one expected that the drainage system would also be broken!"
Standing in the cockpit, you can directly see the entire deck, and the crew members all went out, and in just a few minutes, the lifting platforms were quickly prepared on both sides of the deck.
The pager rang: "Captain, the lifeboat is ready, what next?"
The fat man's eyelids jumped, and he scolded: "Hell! What should I do next, I still need to say?! Hurry up and open the lifting platform, and the lifeboat enters the water!"
He stretched out his hand and pressed the red button: "Passengers, the lifeboats are ready one after another, please assemble on the deck immediately!"
After more than ten seconds, the passage of the cabin was still quiet, and no one dared to open the hatch.
Lin Xuan frowned, and said loudly: "Listen, everyone, the monster is gone, and now the ship is sinking, give me those who don't want to die!"
As soon as the last word fell, he felt a slight shake under his feet, and the whole ship was crooked.
The hull began to tilt!!
Finally, the passengers rushed out of the cabin, the hull slowly tilted, and in this case fools knew that the ship was going to sink when it was flooded!
Soon. There was chaos in the passageway, and before the passengers on the first floor came out, the panicked crowd on it poured down.
The ship is sinking, and no one wants to die!
Everyone pushed and shoved out, and there were several corpses of people and monsters lying in the passage, but at the moment, the passengers who were occupied by the desire to survive could no longer care so much. Just step on it!
There were even a few unlucky people who were accidentally bumped into by the chaotic crowd and immediately shouted loudly, but the exclamations and screams of the crowd drowned out his voice......
Looking at the crowd that had no order at all and was directly out of control, the fat man hurriedly grabbed the pager: "Don't panic, everyone! We have plenty of time! The staff maintains order!!"
The crew members shouted desperately, trying their best to maintain order, but they were also directly pushed out of the way, unable to stop the panic of the crowd.
This kind of moment. People who often crowd the bus and the subway show their advantage......
The windshield of the cockpit had already been smashed by the monster that killed the captain, Lin Xuan jumped out and stood on the high platform outside the cockpit, looking around nervously.
The Apostle blew up the ship, but certainly won't leave yet, and if he sees the passengers pouring onto the deck, he will definitely come and kill!
Even if the passengers are on the lifeboat. It won't be safe either!!
You can only take one step at a time......
More and more people crowded onto the deck, men, women and children squeezing and pushing each other. Some people fell but no one helped them, some young and strong people frantically squeezed, crying one after another, staging a real disaster movie.
At the moment of life and death, the dark side of human nature, such as selfishness, violence, and narrow-mindedness, is all exposed!
Human nature is prone to collapse.
"Hurry up, why don't you let us go down!"
"Isn't the rescue ship ready?"
"Hurry up! Lao Tzu can't die here!"
"Don't squeeze! Stay away from me!"
The hull of the ship was slowly tilting, and people were even more frightened, desperately squeezing to the lifting platform, and they all wanted to be the first to get on the rescue boat.
It's definitely good to go first. What if there are not enough lifeboats in the end!
The fat man also followed Lin Xuan's example and climbed onto the high platform outside the cockpit, and the crew immediately looked up at him inquiringly.
The fat man nodded, and the lifting platform was immediately opened, quickly allowing people to pass one by one, and the ropes were lowered and raised one by one.
Seeing that the people in front got on the boat first, the crowd behind them was full of anxiety, exclaiming that there was a commotion, and they squeezed forward desperately!
Lin Xuan frowned, glanced sideways at the holster on the fat man's waist, reached out and pulled out the gun, loaded it quickly, and pointed high at the sky.
Bang bang!!
Two shots were fired in succession, and the deck fell silent.
The fat man was startled and glared at Lin Xuan, he didn't know how his gun was pulled out!
Lin Xuan returned the gun to him, looked down at the deck coldly, and said loudly: "Give me silence! Women, children, and old people go first!!"
Many people looked at Lin Xuan with complicated eyes, some disdainful, some cold, and only a few agreed.
The fat man glanced at him, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "I heard it, women and children go first, and the elderly, don't worry!"
The crew guarding the lifting platform immediately followed Lin Xuan's example and pulled out their guns and shouted vigorously, because of the warning just now, the scene finally had a little control.
More than ten minutes have passed since the explosion just now, but fortunately, the hull has stopped tilting and is slowly sinking.
Fortunately, the ship did not fall directly, otherwise it would have been even more troublesome!
Lin Xuan had been looking at the sea vigilantly, planning in his heart that if the apostle appeared again, he would do his best to stop him.
However, the apostle never reappeared after the bombing of the ship, which made him a little puzzled......
Why is it gone?
Lin Xuan glanced around, then saw something, his eyes were slightly cold, and he jumped off the high platform.
An old lady with gray hair was just about to walk up to the lifting platform, when suddenly a figure stepped forward, a man with a fierce expression, pushed her to the ground and walked towards the lifting platform.
The crew immediately pointed a gun at him and shouted, "What are you doing! Let the old man go first!"
The man glared viciously: "Don't talk nonsense, pretend to be something, I don't believe you dare to shoot!
At this moment, a white palm reached over and pinched his neck.
Lin Xuan dragged back, threw the man back, helped the old lady up from the ground, and helped her up to the lifting platform.
The man staggered back a few steps, and was suddenly annoyed: "Damn!
With red eyes, he stepped forward to pinch Lin Xuan's neck, but Lin Xuan snorted coldly, raised a kick directly, and kicked him into the crowd.
"I said, let the old man go first, it's not your turn yet. ”
The man's face turned red, covered his lower abdomen, and stared at Lin Xuan resentfully: "My life is worth more than them!
Lin Xuan didn't talk nonsense, walked over with an indifferent face, grabbed the man's collar, raised his hand, and threw the man directly out of the deck!
Poof!
The man screamed and fell into the sea, then floated to the surface and cried out for help.
Lin Xuan didn't even look at it, he glanced around expressionlessly, and he felt inexplicably afraid of the people he saw: "Whoever makes trouble again will be the same as him." ”
It is also the most effective way to use extraordinary means at extraordinary times and when time is urgent.
Many people swallowed their saliva, looking at him with a little shock in their eyes, throwing a person is like throwing a rag doll, this young man has so much strength!
Lin Xuan raised his feet and walked, and the crowd consciously separated from each other.
When he returned to the high platform of the cockpit, he saw Ah Yang, Park Zhengxu and others standing in the cockpit, Xia Luoluo's dark eyes staring at him, and Xia Yangzhou and Li Yun standing behind her.
Seeing Lin Xuan's eyes, he nodded solemnly.
Lin Xuan took a deep breath, these are all people he knows, and he has to find a way to let them leave safely!
The fat man looked at the rescue ship in the distance and frowned: "The rescue ship really stopped...... Then we'll get there!"
He looked at Lin Xuan and said in a deep voice: "Our rescue boat is not enough, lifebuoys and life jackets can only be used temporarily, at this time, people are soaked in the icy seawater, and they can't hold on for too long, we have to let a group of people go to the rescue boat over there first, so that we can ......"
Lin Xuan frowned, he had thought so too, but the apostle might still be hiding in the shadows......
The fat man was still talking, and at this moment, a deafening roar suddenly sounded from the rescue ship in the distance!
Boom!!!!!
The sound was like a muffled thunder in the sky, and a ball of fire rose from the rescue ship, as if a bomb had been dropped on the ship, and then there was thick black smoke!
The people on deck exclaimed, completely stunned.
The fat man stared at him deadly, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he couldn't say a word.
Now the rescue boat is gone!!
Lin Xuan's face was ugly, this must have been done by the apostle! No wonder this didn't appear, it turned out that he ran to blow up the rescue ship!
In this way, even the people on the rescue ship will not survive!!
Apostle, he wants to kill them all!!(To be continued.) )
