Chapter Nine Hundred and Ninety Seven: Love at a Moment of Life and Death
At the same time when Jack and Ruth finally confirmed their mutual intentions, the crisis of the Titanic gradually emerged.
In other words, from the very beginning, Lin Fan passed through Ruth Carr's high-end dinner parties, conveying a dangerous message to all the audience bit by bit.
The crew members on board conveyed to the captain more than once that there were signs of icebergs ahead, but they were all ignored by the captain.
The captain firmly believed that the Titanic was indestructible, a perfect dream ship, and the ice floating in the sea would not bring any harm to the ship at all.
But this time, it was clearly not just an insignificant block of ice as the captain thought, but an iceberg.
So close that the naked eye can see it!
Almost instantly, the romantic atmosphere of Jack and Ruth's love was replaced by the iceberg crisis that was about to be encountered directly ahead. The whole crew moved, and the engine began to turn at full speed. Fortunately, at the last moment, the bow of the ship finally avoided the iceberg. !
But the crisis was not resolved, because the bottom of the Titanic still collided with the protruding part of the iceberg.
The so-called unsinkable dream ship began to take in water, and the cargo warehouse was instantly submerged by seawater, and then the bottom warehouse of the boiler, and the waterproof door was closed urgently, which barely stabilized the situation.
But looking at the iceberg passing by the hull, everyone knew that this crisis was far from over.
But at this time, Carl, who knew nothing about the iceberg crisis, succeeded in framing Jack, framing Jack for stealing the Heart of the Ocean, and having Jack handcuffed.
The captain, who never cared about the iceberg, finally realized how terrible this crisis was. Because the captain wanted to retire gloriously before, he was bewitched by the chairman of the navigation company, and wanted to show the world the unparalleled speed of the Titanic, so the sailing speed has always been very fast.
But at this time, five cabins of the Titanic had already been poured in by seawater, and the bow had already begun to sink, but the time left for them was less than two hours.
More importantly, the Titanic was not equipped with enough life rafts. The reason turned out to be that too many life rafts would make the deck unsightly.
There are 2,200 lives on the ship, but there are only life rafts that can hold 1,100 lives, which means that fully half of the passengers cannot be rescued.
The crew urgently notified everyone to put on life jackets.
Prepare to escape, and at the same time put down all the lifeboats on the deck, very busy.
But the group of rich people thought it was too cold outside, so they all hid in the cabin and continued to sing and dance, without any sense of danger of escaping.
Fortunately, the distress signal sent by the captain was answered, but it would take four hours for the nearest cruise ship to reach here.
Under the arrangement of the crew, the rich people in the first class boarded the lifeboat one after another. Ruth also learned the truth about the sinking of the Titanic, and realized that Jack did not steal the heart of the ocean, so she turned to find the heart of the ocean. Jack.
The passengers in the third-class cabin were still locked in the cabin and could not come out. The cabin where Jack was imprisoned also began to flood.
Ruth came to the ground floor, and the corridor was full of water. She found the room where Jack was held, but she couldn't find the key to unlock the handcuffs. Ruth had to go back to find someone to help.
However, the bilge flooded quickly. Ruth managed to find someone and wanted to ask him to help save Jack, but the man dragged Ruth to flee for his life. Ruth had to punch him away and try to save Jack himself. Jack.
Fortunately, Ruth found a fire ax and successfully rescued Jack.
Ruth and Jack returned to the third-class cabin, but found that the cabin door was still closed, allowing only the elderly, women and children to pass through. They came to another gate, where there were few guards, and they worked together to open the gate and escape up.
On the deck, the group of rich people began to riot.
Originally a lifeboat that could take 65 people, but because of the so-called first-class treatment, only 20 people were loaded, and there was even a lifeboat that only loaded 12 people.
At first these rich people could hold back, but as the bow gradually sank, their humanity began to be exposed in the face of the disaster, but luckily they were temporarily suppressed by the crew.
Jack and Ruth finally came to the deck. There was also a lifeboat, but only women and children could get on board.
Carl, who had paid to board the boat, couldn't help but go to Ruth when he learned that Ruth was on the opposite side, and put his coat on Ruth with distress.
Ruth refused to get on the boat and wanted to be with Jack, but Carl said that he had made arrangements and would let Jack get on the boat with him, and Ruth got on the lifeboat.
But in fact, Karl only prepared the back road for himself, and obviously Jack knew about it.
The lifeboat descended slowly. At the last moment, Ruth jumped out of the lifeboat and returned to the Titanic. She wanted to be with Jack forever.
Jack also flew down and embraced Ruth tightly on the lower floor. This scene deeply stimulated Carl, who pulled out the gun on the servant and forced Jack and Ruth to the lower level.
Jack and Ruth fled to the third-class cabin and rescued a little boy, but the little boy's father didn't appreciate it. He pushed Jack away and turned back to pick up the luggage. swallowed them up.
Jack and Rose were also washed out by the flood. They finally climbed the stairs, but the door was locked. And the waiter that Ruth met last time ran past Ruth again, but this time, he chose to turn back.
But in a hurry, he lost the key. Fortunately, at the last moment, Jack finally found the key, unlocked the door, and escaped.
On the other hand, Karl was about to board the lifeboat that was agreed, but the crew threw the money in his face. At this time, a civilian was pushed up, and the crew accidentally killed him in a panic, but the guilty crew chose to commit suicide the next moment to make up for their mistakes.
Carl picks up a single child as a way to get away with it and end up in a lifeboat.
At this time, the bow of the Titanic had sunk into the water, and the rest of the people squeezed to the stern, holding on to the railing tightly. The circuit on the ship began to short-circuit, and the Titanic, which was brightly lit one second, will It was completely dark in seconds.
Suddenly, the whole ship began to break, and the huge hull was torn apart from the middle. The stern, which was originally raised high, lost its support and smashed back to the sea level!
But after all, the hull still couldn't be completely disconnected. The bow of the sunken ship dragged the stern and tilted high again, almost standing upright on the water!
