The same trouble was given to those who were going to send the big news by telegram to the headquarters of the newspaper in London. The phone could not be reached, and the telegram could not be sent.

Some of those who tried to leave the port of Southampton left and nothing was heard from them. Others left and returned with the same problems as Carl, and had no memory of what they had done.

After all, when the Titanic made its maiden voyage, most of the passengers who stayed in the port of Southampton or those who were supposed to be on board were not locals.

The world of cinema is incomplete, and in this timeline, there are only a few scenes, and the rest of the parts are like fog. As a movie, it makes sense, and the audience won't care about those areas of the world that haven't been there.

For people who live in this world, it is full of questions, and in a short time, they will try to find answers. But after a long time, you will feel lost and frightened because of this.

However, for the time being, because this world line is only five days, Lin Ming has been in and out so many times. Here in Southampton, there are still very few people who can really spot the oddity.

After all, there are also some ways to confuse and deceive people's perception in the film world. For example, people who feel they should leave Southampton and go home will not notice the anomaly. If they leave, they will not be seen again.

Only now, like Carl, those journalists, these people, go out for other purposes. And because Lin Ming is still here, they will come back, so they will find that they can't remember what such strange things they did during the process from leaving to returning.

When they need to connect with the outside world, they will find that they can't connect at all. Some people even tried to communicate with the Titanic, but this time they got a response.

The people on the Titanic said that it was absolutely impossible to return home. Now that you're moving, you have to get to your destination.

When Lin Ming spent a leisurely day in the hotel with Ruth, he even asked Ruth to say, "Could it be called kidnapping?" Mr. Robber, you are too gentle, shouldn't you treat me roughly? ”

"So Ruth, you like to be rough?"

Lin Ming didn't wear that black gas mask now, anyway, he was just pretending to be in the first place. Of course, when he meets those outside people, he will still maintain the same dress as before.

"The White Star Company once hired you? So did they really deliberately sink the Titanic for the sake of the so-called huge insurance money? ”

"That's right, because that's an extremely objective insurance payment, and it can solve the big trouble of the White Star Company in no time. So renovate the Olympic that was originally damaged, no one knows if it's right. After all, the two ships were originally twins. ”

"Well, let's believe that. So what's going on now, the police and the army at Southampton are too slow to react. Didn't they know I was kidnapped? ”

"Miss Ruth, I think you're having fun."

"Hmph, I'm just trying to prevent a murderer like you from trying to hurt me."

At this time, the phone of the hotel rang, and the voice of an expert in charge of the negotiation of the case came from the old-fashioned phone, and after Lin Ming listened, he showed a smile that made Ruth feel weird.

"Why are you laughing so badly?"

"Haha, haha! Because there's going to be a good show soon. I really didn't expect that there would be so many unpredictable changes in the progress and occurrence of things this time. ”

Lin Ming continued to appear in the camouflage combat uniform, body armor, and wearing a gas mask. It's just that this time it's not a slight rush hanging next to him. Rather, two pistols.

But even so, the local guards who came to negotiate with him did not make any drastic moves. Journalists are here too. But Ruth's fiancé didn't show up.

At this time, the negotiator asked, "I don't know when this masked gentleman is going to release the hostages." After all, the Titanic has already sailed away. Your goal has also failed. ”

Lin Ming's voice passed through the gas mask, with a strange feeling, "I don't know if I asked the person in charge of the White Star Company to come?" ”

"I'm sorry, the person in charge of the White Star Company said that it is up to us police to deal with it. So they wouldn't choose to have a face-to-face negotiation with Mr. ”

"Actually, I still have some information about the White Star Company that I want to expose, but it doesn't seem that much interest from you."

Sure enough, this time these reporters were not as excited as before, only a familiar face appeared there, only to hear Jack anxiously ask, "I want to know how Miss Ruth is now?" ”

"Oh, do you mean that noble lady? She's not a quiet girl. So I had to deal with her with some rough tactics. ”

"Damn, how can you do this to a young girl."

"So what do you think I should do with her? Shall I still serve her like a servant? As I said, if you can't meet my demands, then I'll make you regret it. That's the proof. ”

Lin Ming had an extra remote control in his hand, but those people in this era didn't know what a remote control was. Or even if there were something like that, there would be no way to make it look so small.

Then a loud explosion was heard in an abandoned warehouse at the port of Southampton, and a puff of smoke billowed into the sky. The ground trembled slightly.

"Look, that's a warning. Okay, I ask that the head of the White Star Company must show up here tomorrow for a face-to-face consultation with me. And I asked for a remote power-up with JP Morgan. As for the other requirements, I'll talk about it when I'm ready. ”

The police officers and the guards at the port watched helplessly as the vicious kidnapper disappeared into the empty hotel once again.

At this time, Ruth was rummaging in the hotel's warehouse for food, "It's so rich, I don't know what that guy suddenly did!" Then Ruth found a few boxes of pastries from Italy that she hadn't seen before, and a jar of blueberry jam next to them.

Ruth unscrewed the jam jar, dipped her finger in it, and licked it. This unladylike way of eating made her very happy.

"Hey, if you eat like this, you'll get fat."

Although Kate Winslet is indeed the kind of beauty that seems a little plump. However, some people said back then that compared to the young Leonardo, Ruth looked too fat.

Well, in fact, it's just those women who describe it like this. In fact, Lin Ming felt that Ruth was neither fat nor thin, and her figure was not bad. And this girl is cheerful and lively, and she is also very receptive to new things.

"Hey, what were you doing out there? I felt like I heard an explosion. ”

"I'm just scaring those people."

"Hmph, I've heard you say that you're going to seek justice from the White Star Company. Well, what the hell is going on? ”

"I'm doing the dirty work for this company, you know. It's the kind of person who specializes in sabotaging competitors. But now the company's top brass thinks I know too many secrets, so they want to kill me. So that's all I have to do. ”

Ruth thought for a moment and whispered, "You didn't end well by doing this." You have no idea how much power stands behind the White Star Company. Even the steel tycoon in Pittsburgh can't compare to the majority shareholders of White Star. ”

"Speaking of which, your fiancé doesn't act well at all, could it be that he doesn't love you at all?"

"Hmph, I want you to take care of it! Anyway...... There's no way to get away with it. ”

"Be courageous, and the world is so big, don't limit your eyes to this."

Ruth stared at Lin Ming, plucked up her courage and said, "Then let's leave here secretly, I'll follow you." ”

"Aren't you afraid to suffer with me? You know, I'm nowhere near as rich as your fiancé. ”

"Hmph, if it's for money, I just marry him. You know that I took the initiative to be your hostage. ”

"Well, if I can solve the problem today, I'll take you with me."

"Can't you go now?"

Lin Ming smiled, "Although it seems safe here, you have to know that there is an encirclement of at least four hundred people outside, surrounding here. Could it be that I can still kill it head-on? So now I have to stay here. ”

"Well, it's fun to live like this anyway."

"You don't really look like a noble lady."

"Okay, don't you want me to show a fake smile like those noble ladies and treat you hypocritically?"

"No, I just like your character of daring to reveal your true self."

Ruth hummed the tune of modern pop music that Lin Ming handed her and continued to look for those interesting snacks in the warehouse. Lin Ming was thinking about what he would do if he persecuted those people in Southampton so much?

Because Lin Ming knew the characteristics of the movie world, it was impossible for them to contact the person he wanted to meet. And the more these people try to find secrets, the more bugs they discover, and the more unreal the world will be.

As he expected, the Southampton port garrison had an easier time than continuing to calm the people's emotions. After all, that villain didn't cause too much damage. But on the other hand, these people who have discovered the "secret" continue to probe. Or rather, they have a hope in their hearts that it may just be that the signal of the entire city is blocked.

"Why can't I contact headquarters?"

The chief of the police station snorted coldly in the face of the mayor's questioning: "You can now try to see if you can contact Downing Street." ”

The mayor asked with some confusion, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"You can try it, like a telegram or a telephone, anything. Even Mr. Mayor, you can drive to Downing Street now and come back. ”

"This?" The mayor was also a little eccentric, and after experimenting with telephone and telegraph, he asked with some surprise: "Could it be that we have been cut off from the outside of the city?" ”
