Chapter 126: The Body in the Bilge

After more than half an hour of rapid sailing, the speedboat finally came to the vicinity of the scene, and Murong Fei saw a large lighting device in front of him from a distance, emitting a strong light. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, the range of the lake that the device can illuminate is still very limited, and he can't see what the situation is on the lake.

The little brother drove the speedboat to a large boat docked on the lake, and it was a fireboat that could be seen from the sign. Murong Fei thought, this ship is quite magnificent, and the equipment should be good, it seems that at this scene, this big guy just has no room to play.

There were a few firefighters on the bow of the ship, and they didn't know what was being discussed fiercely there, but the little brother had already set up a small escalator next to the fireboat, signaling Murong Fei and them to climb up.

Murong Fei and the four of them climbed onto the fire boat, and a middle-aged policeman with a dark face stepped forward and said, "Who are you?" ”

"Murong of the Criminal Department is not a doctor."

"Oh, you are from the Criminal Division, Forensic Doctor Murong, it's really hard, I'm Director Chen of the Wanshi Town Police Station, and now the situation is unknown, you see, the deck of this cruise ship is empty, everything is a question mark."

"Strange, what about these people?"

"Yes, 18 people, it is impossible to disappear out of thin air, we have speculated, either 18 people have abandoned ship to escape, or these 18 people are in the bilge of the first floor."

"This ship is only two floors?"

"Yes, the first floor is the passenger cabin, and the captain's cockpit, and the second floor is the sightseeing deck, No, see for yourself, it's the deck that is out of the water."

Murong Fei looked at the deck and could see that it was a new ship, the red-painted deck looked very bright in the light, the deck was surrounded by steel pipe fences, and the deck was empty.

Murong Fei said to himself: "Now it seems that this deck is very safe, if you abandon the ship and escape, it seems a little unreasonable." ”

Director Chen also said: "Yes, this possibility has almost been ruled out by us, not to mention those tourists, the captain always has a little escape experience, this ship has run aground, they don't need to abandon ship in a hurry." ”

Murong Fei saw that there were still some parts of the hull that were smoking at this time, so he said, "However, if the fire was too fierce at that time, it would be difficult for them to abandon the ship. ”

Director Chen said: "This possibility is not impossible, but even if the ship is abandoned, there is also equipment to abandon the ship, right?" For example, small lifeboats, or life jackets or something, they can't just leave the water very far, you look at these mountains next to them, even if they climb ashore, they should be waiting for rescue nearby, right? ”

"You've already looked at the surrounding mountains?"

"We have sent speedboats, and we have patrolled the surrounding waters, and we have not found anyone, and after our first round of search and rescue work, if no one is found, we will definitely continue to expand the search and rescue area."

Murong Fei stood there in a hurry, he felt that he was useless at this time, so he could only watch the firefighters think of a way over there, so he stepped forward and listened to the firefighters study the rescue methods.

"It's too late, but we have to get down to the bottom deck right away and find out what's going on in the bottom deck."

"The problem is that we don't understand the cause of the fire on the cruise ship, what if our people go down and there is danger?"

"Of course it's something to consider, but when we think about this and that, time will be missed."

"Do you think there was a chance of survival if there were people in the bilge?"

"I'm not sure, but after all, the hull is not completely sunk, so you can't say that it is impossible."

"I dare to assert that even if there are people down there, it is impossible for anyone to survive."

"That's your opinion, I think as long as there is a chance, we have to seize it."

"This is against the guidelines of rescue, our own people, who will ensure safety."

"Needless to say, I'll be responsible for what happened, and now I have to go down."

Murong Fei saw that the stern tone was a wrinkled fifty-year-old soldier with a wrinkled face, and he didn't know what official position this person was, so he turned around and immediately sent four divers into the water.

After receiving the instructions, the four well-dressed divers began to slowly climb down the escalator of the fireboat.

Murong Fei saw that the water surface immediately lit up, and the lights above the diver's head passed through the clear lake water, forming four light clusters on the surface of the lake, slowly moving to the sides of the boat.

The people on the fireboat were nervously watching the divers working underwater at this time, Murong Fei thought to himself, 18 people abandoned the ship, this possibility will definitely not exist, and now the biggest possibility is that 18 people are in the bilge of the first floor and have become corpses.

Although he didn't want to see such a situation, but the situation in front of him was basically about to turn out like this, he thought, 18 people were burned alive, or maybe drowned in the end, what happened on this ship, how could not a single person escape to the second deck? Although I haven't seen the internal structure of this pleasure boat, I can think of the stairs from the first floor to the second deck with a maximum of a few meters, how can no one escape from it?

Murong Fei was thinking about it, the firefighter behind the left side of the cruise ship seemed to have begun to withdraw from the hull after a period of observation, and the light on the water surface gradually became brighter and brighter, and after a while, the fireman's head surfaced.

The firefighter who surfaced swam towards the fireboat, grabbed the escalator that had been left on the side of the boat, removed the mask from his head, and shouted, "Hey, there's a body found down there." ”

Murong Fei's heart twitched, although he had expected this kind of thing, but when he heard about this final judgment, his heart suddenly became empty, and he felt a little unacceptable to such a fact.

Director Chen shouted at the firefighter, "How many corpses there are, do you know?" ”

"I only saw one, it had been burned to charcoal, the bilge was too dark, the light was not enough, how many corpses there were, it's hard to say now."

In fact, Murong Fei already knew very well in his heart that as long as one corpse was found, then other people's corpses were likely to be there, but the cruise ship was burned, and the corpses were likely to be overfired, and the color of the corpses that had been burned turned black, and the firefighters might not be able to find out how many corpses there were.

Immediately afterwards, three other firefighters also surfaced, and they all swam to the side of the escalator and made their own reports.

"I found two bodies."

"I found three bodies"

"I found a body."

Murong Fei calculated the total number in his heart, although the total number was not eighteen, he understood that these 18 people had all been killed in the bilge.
