Chapter 175: Explosion
The waiter's answer was still, "I don't know, sir." β
Li Han didn't know if he really didn't know, or if he just didn't want to tell the truth in case the customer was nervous and scared. So he decided to leave the cabin and go to the deck to see what was going on, where there were more waiters, and maybe to the wheelhouse or something.
He thought for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Lydia, are you scared if you stay here alone?" Do you want to go up with me? β
Lydia immediately jumped up from the bed: "Of course, I can't sleep anyway, wait for me to change my clothes." β
Li Han was still wearing pajamas, and he ordered while changing clothes: "Wear neatly, don't wear skirts and high heels." β
Lydia wore a sweater and jeans, and a thick jacket, although it was already May, it was already close to the Arctic Circle, and the temperature at night was really not low, so she had to avoid having to go to the deck or even leave the cruise ship.
Spring in Norway is from May to mid-June, and spring is the season with the largest temperature difference between the north and south of Norway, and the largest temperature difference between day and night. Spring weather can be very changeable, with a few days as cold as snow, a few days when it's sunny, and a few months in spring when you're windy, and if you're not prepared, you're likely to get freezing.
There are already many people who have changed their clothes and are walking around outside, and the polar day has saved them from the psychological burden of "wandering around in the middle of the night". Besides, no one can ignore the violent shaking of the cruise ship and continue to sleep, and they can't sleep peacefully without figuring out what happened.
When Li Han saw that the hall was full of people, and all of them were full of confusion and worry. Decisively turned around and went to the cab. Since something went wrong, at least the captain must be over there.
The captain was an Italian man of about sixty years of age. Different from the stern sΓΉ of Randall, the captain of Li Han's private yacht, this is a typical Italian man who is very suave at first glance, and at the same time has the courtesy and respect for passengers that is characteristic of a five-star cruise captain.
When Li Han asked what happened to the cruise ship, the captain said firmly and politely: "Sir, there is just a little glitch, it will be fine soon, it will not affect our itinerary at all, and we can arrive at Bode Port on time tomorrow morning." β
Li Han doesn't understand machinery. He didn't understand the ship, so he could only say whatever the other party said, and nodded with confusion and prepared to leave. Then the cruise ship seemed to be slapping the captain in the face, and just as he finished speaking, the ship shook violently again, and then again.
The faces of the two of them changed, although they had trembled more than a dozen times before. But never connected and shaken. Is this a glitch that has increased?
The captain seemed to be tempted to call the first mate or second mate over the walkie-talkie to inquire about the situation, but he endured it because there were passengers he didn't want to reveal the real situation. Li Han was trying to know the specific situation of the facts, so he was willing to avoid it, and said directly: "Mr. Captain, should I ask about the situation over there?" β
While the captain was still hesitating, his walkie-talkie rang: "Captain." Just blew up a cylinder, and the motive was completely scrapped......"
Li Han only appeared at this time, and the steamer had completely stopped. The motivation is broken, that is, it can't go for the time being? It's not a big deal, it's less than an hour's flight from Stoke Marcones. Even if a boat is sent from the port to pick it up, it won't be long before there are enough lifeboats on the cruise ship.
Got the answer. Li Han didn't stay long, nodded politely to the captain goodbye, turned to leave, and could hear the captain asking the other party on the walkie-talkie...... Is there a problem with the water inlet tank? β
"Are you sleepy?" Li Han asked his girlfriend, "It seems that the cruise ship can't go for the time being, but there shouldn't be anything else, if you are sleepy, you can go to sleep first." β
Lydia shook her head, her sleepiness already missing from the constant fright: "I'm a little hungry, let's go get something to eat." β
Of course Li Han has no opinion, it is 2 o'clock in the morning at this time, and it is normal to be hungry. This is a five-star cruise ship, if it is a long-distance trip, they will probably be too boring, five-star cruise ships have always been the favorite of middle-aged and elderly people, there are not too many people, there are no lively large-scale performances, and there are no international stars on stage. But the service of the 5-star cruise is the best, and the food of the 5-star cruise is also the best.
They went to the 24-hour restaurant, and Li Han ordered a cheese-baked matsutake lobster - that's why he chose a five-star restaurant - of course you have to eat lobster for supper at night, there is no spicy crayfish, and the lobster weighing more than a pound is also great. Lydia asked for a tuna salad, and in the middle of the night, she didn't dare eat anything that was too calortic.
The chefs on a five-star cruise ship are no worse than the chefs in a five-star hotel, even if they are just cooking a late-night snack in the middle of the night, their skills are very good. The lobster meat is fresh and tender, with the sweetness of cheese and the aroma of high-end brandy, while the matsutake mushroom retains its original strong aroma and has a smooth and refreshing taste. Li Han was very satisfied with his food, and he couldn't help but start thinking about taking a five-star cruise next time, he was originally a person who loved food but didn't like to be lively.
It's a pity that the trip to Alaska in July has been booked for a 4-star cruise, and 4 weeks is just a way for passengers to eat freely, and it is impossible to order whatever you want like a 5-star cruise. Fortunately, there are always some paid restaurants on the cruise, so you can go there if you want to eat well.
Originally, Li Han thought that the motives were completely hung up, and the boat should not shake anymore, who knew that he had just eaten halfway through and was picking up a piece of lobster meat with a fork, when the boat shook up a piece of lobster meat again, and the lobster meat on the fork shook off the table, making Li Han let out a distressed cry.
Yes, this time it wasn't just a shake or two, it was simply shaking, followed by a loud "bang". Although the five-star cruise ship is a small boat, it is really not small, but they can all hear the movement in the restaurant on the top floor, and it is completely conceivable how loud the sound is, Li Han suspected that something should have exploded.
The two glanced at each other, hurriedly stuffed the food into their stomachs in a few bites, and walked out of the restaurant. Everyone was looking nervously, but no one knew what was happening, and then there was another loud bang, and Li Han obviously saw a few people on the side trembling. Li Han knew them, those few were all Americans, and there were still a lot of American high rollers.
"It sounds like a bomb exploding, it can't be a terrorist attack, right?" One of them whispered.
Another decisively rejected his speculation: "How is it possible? Terror. What are the elements doing when they attack one of our small cruise ships? β
"But what other than a terrorist attack could have such a loud explosion?"
This is a question that puzzles everyone, what is the explosion?
ps: The cold has been around for more than ten days, not only has it not gotten better, but there is a trend of getting stricter and stricter, and the change of seasons to cool down is really the most annoying thing
