Chapter 776: Escape from Death (200 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
"Did you break up with your girlfriend again? Can you still think of that kind of thing at this time? God, you should go to the casino in Niagara City and have fun with a girl after your shift, it's so pathetic!" his companion did not hear the emphasis of the shouting in the cabin, but suggested that his companion could have such an idea.
Faced with an 8-meter-long catamaran aluminum alloy sailboat, the marine police were also helpless. The patrol boat is not a construction boat, and it cannot lift the sailboat to help it turn over, so it can only wait for the rescue boat. Until then, the Marine Police had to tie a few large floats to the sailboat to help it stay afloat, and by the way, they pried open the submarine valve from the outside to keep the air in the cabin as much as possible.
To say that Lao Mei's movement to save people is really big, before the float is tied, a police helicopter rumbled over and hovered in the nearby waters. Then a professional water lifeguard jumped directly down, wore diving equipment and dived under the water to check the specific situation in the cabin. At this time, Hong Tao had already taken out a pair of shorts from the bedroom bag for Eliza to change into, and was sitting on the cabinet with her. When the diver shone in through the porthole with a strong light, he waved at the diver outside the porthole, then pointed at himself, then pointed at Eliza, who was still in a limp state, and stretched out his thumb and index finger to make a gesture.
In many European and American countries, when using gestures to indicate numbers, it is best not to use the index finger and middle finger to indicate two, which will cause many misunderstandings. Sometimes this gesture represents agreement, satisfaction, victory, and other jumbled meanings. The correct way is to extend the thumb to one, add an index finger to two, and so on until five. If you want to say six, I'm sorry, you add another hand, from this point of view, they are indeed much dumber than the Chinese, we can count from one to ten with one hand, otherwise drinking and punching will not be possible.
The only divers brought by the helicopter, he was only responsible for investigating the details, and he didn't care whether he saved people or not, just did it and waited. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew in again, this time with two men coming down the rope from above, holding a hand-held cutter, and shining a saw on the bottom of the boat. Hong Tao listened to it in the cabin and felt distressed, although it was a second-hand ship, but it was only driven out half a time, and it was sawed like this! Unfortunately, he couldn't hear it when he wanted to shout, you can't say that people don't save you.
Soon a large hole was sawed out of the bottom of the boat, and the two guys with protective glasses got in and put Hong Tao and Elisa into the gondola of the helicopter one by one. Then the helicopter flew away with a thud, and in a few moments it flew over a city and landed directly on the roof of a hospital. Hong Tao had been talking to the ambulance crew in the helicopter for a long time, and he was fine, but Eliza hit a wound on her head. But it didn't work, the two stretchers were already waiting on the roof of the building, and as soon as the plane was stable, the medical staff rushed up, and couldn't help but say, put him and Eliza on the stretcher, three seat belts in a bundle, and ran to the elevator when they pushed it up. This Nima is not saving people, it is more like kidnapping, and the technique is very skilled.
At first, Hong Tao was still talking nonsense with the doctors and nurses, trying to explain that he was not injured except for several bloody passages on his back that Eliza had scratched, and he didn't need all kinds of instruments to desperately greet him. But he won't say anything about it, because the doctors and nurses are all the same: don't be nervous, relax, and we'll do our best to save you and your companions!
Later, Hong Tao really felt as if he was a little sick, he was tossing a little violently in the cabin just now, plus they had taken several tubes of their own blood, his head was a little groggy, and he had no strength in his body. When he woke up again, it was early in the morning, and he was lying in a single room.
"Holy shit! What kind of injections did they give me? Why did they just fall asleep! I need to see...... Fortunately, the kidneys are still there, and the cornea should be there, otherwise I can't see if there is a knife on the body!" Hong Tao lay on the bed and hesitated for five seconds, then suddenly ran down, quickly ran to the front of the dressing mirror, took off the wide hospital gown, and carefully checked the whole body, and found that there was no knife and new sutures.
There is nothing wrong with the body, Hong Tao remembered his boat again, although it is not too expensive, but it is tens of thousands of yuan, you can't just throw it away after playing once, it is not really a loser. And where did Eliza go? She must have been in this hospital too, and what happened to the wound on her head? I had to look for her, so he put on the big robe and got out of the room, and went around the corridor for half a circle, and finally found the nurse's station.
A stout nurse with freckles on her face patiently answered Hong Tao's question, and she told Hong Tao that Eliza was in the upstairs ward, and she really didn't know how to deal with Hong Tao's sailboat, but she could help Hong Tao contact the police station. Hong Tao didn't rush to see Eliza, because he still had a question that he hadn't figured out, who should he and Eliza pay for the rescue? After chatting for a long time, no one asked him to bill.
The nurse's answer made Hong Tao sigh very much, he didn't have to pay the money! If he was an American, he would have to pay, and it didn't matter if he couldn't get it out for a while, someone from the insurance company would come to help him find a way to pay it back slowly in installments. If you happen to have insurance in this area, it will save you trouble, and the insurance company will pay for you according to the items you purchased. However, Hong Tao and Elisa are not Americans, and they can't accept it if they want to give it to their families, and there is no such project in the hospital, and the nurses at the nurse station can't say how to charge for it.
"Hahahaha...... Actually, it's even cuter for you to have this hairstyle, at least five years younger!If you get a tattoo on your neck and wear a black leather coat, it's a motorcycle party!" When the nurse took Hong Tao to Eliza's hospital room, Hong Tao's mouth began to spray poison again. Elisa's long maroon hair was gone, and she was shaved off a large bald head, and she wore a mesh to hold a small piece of gauze in place. The bald head made Elisa completely change, with a small head and broad shoulders, she really looked quite small.
"It's not funny! It's all your fault! You're a *** annoyance!" a pillow flew over first, and then Eliza's complaint.
"Hey, hey, hey...... It's okay, it's just a small accident, I've called Nina, and said that we will play in Rochester for two more days, rest assured, the doctor said that you have a little concussion, stay one more day and observe and you can go home. Hong Tao now talks more casually to Elisa, and sits beside her, reaching out and touching her face, like a father comforting a child.
"What about you? You're going to be discharged from the hospital?" Eliza didn't hide from Hong Tao this time, the two of them had already broken through a certain relationship, so she didn't have to worry so much.
"I'm waiting for someone from the police station to come, our boat has them towed away, I have to go and see if it's worth repairing, stay well, I'll buy you whatever you want to eat later." Hong Tao lowered his head and pecked Eliza in the mouth.
"I'm also discharged from the hospital, this injury is nothing, I don't want to live here alone......" Eliza heard that Hong Tao was going to leave by herself, and immediately sat up, holding Hong Tao's hand to prevent him from leaving.
Since Eliza insisted that she was fine, and that she really shouldn't have a problem. A person who was born as a professional athlete or an ice hockey player has had a lot of bumps and bumps, and if they are all hospitalized, then they won't train this year.
Then get out of the hospital, but Hong Tao only wore a pair of tight shorts when he came, and Eliza had to go out and buy two clothes first, and Hong Tao stayed in the hospital to continue to harass the nurses. Although they are not pretty, they are gentle and enjoy chatting with patients. Hong Tao told them about that thrilling moment yesterday afternoon, in his story, a little processing and polishing, described himself as simply braver than Jack in the Titanic, and unswerving to death, giving up the chance to escape must guard the injured Eliza, just erasing the things he and Eliza did in the cabin. Oh, I moved those nurses big and small, tears were pouring out, and the nurses' station became a memorial service, and there was a lot of sobbing.
"After a while, the police asked, don't say that you are driving a boat, you don't have a captain's license, you can't sail alone, if they know you'll be put in jail. Eliza finished buying clothes, finally freed the nurses, and began to tell Hong Tao how to deal with the American police.
"Do you still need a license for this thing?" Hong Tao heard for the first time that he still needed a license to drive a broken sailboat.
"There's a sailing yacht club not far from your houseboat, and they can offer IYT or SAS certification exams, so you can go and see them when you go back, and it's not hard for you. I originally wanted you to get acquainted with it for a while before taking the test, but now it seems that you don't need it, you can capsize the catamaran in the inner lake, what a talent!" Eliza can be regarded as catching Hong Tao's pigtail, and it is estimated that she can say it for at least ten years.
To Hong Tao's surprise, not only American hospitals don't want money, but even American police don't want money. Helicopters and tugboats are all used for nothing, and you don't have to pay a penny, and the only thing that Hong Tao needs to pay is the docking fee of his broken ship at the dock. Hong Tao is very moved, this is called serving the people, after he goes back, he must ask the lawyer to get a letter of thanks to the police station here, and by the way, see if he can donate some money to the fund of their police station, a life-saving grace!R1152
