The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 8

"What you said is very constructive, but I don't think that will happen. Besides, I'm just a designer. Some things are beyond my control." Andrew sighed.

"Okay. Let me ask one last question. If a big ship is about to collide like an iceberg, in addition to slowing down and reversing, should it pass by the side at the same time or just hit it with the bow to offset the kinetic energy of the ship? And I I think it’s safer to hit it directly, because the bow is the ship’s head and the watertight cabin is still in a safe state; if it’s transferred from the side, I think it’s very dangerous because the low temperature causes the steel plate to become brittle and the ship itself With so much kinetic energy, the iceberg will draw a long seam in the bottom of the ship, causing more watertight tanks to enter, which may cause the ship to sink.” Situ Nan finished staring at Andrew.

Andrew became serious and frowned, "You mean the Titanic, don't you? Although I admit that you have some truth, this will never happen, I promise. Smith is experienced. Captain, we have to trust him to handle it."

Andrew believes that something like that won't happen. How can someone hit the ice so easily?This is ridiculous!He didn't want to discuss this unpleasant topic at all, even though he looked at Situ Nan with admiration.

"Stoney, you are really good, you can think of so much. Let's talk if we have time, I have something else." Andrew declined the conversation.

Next time?Next time I can only discuss with you in God's hometown.Situ Nan said slanderously.

After seeing that Andrew didn't believe his "nonsense", Situ Nan said disappointedly: "I have thought about it too much! Thank you for your answer."

In fact, Situ Nan just wanted to prove how sinking the Titanic really was. People don't want to believe in tragedy, but sometimes a very small probability happens.Now even the designer of the Titanic can’t persuade it. Situ Nan ran to the sixth officer, who is the head of the driver’s cabin, Mu and said, “Hey, if you see the ship hitting an iceberg, don’t turn around and just hit it. That's it."

Even if Mu was Situ Nan's cousin, he wouldn't believe such nonsense!Situ Nan remembered that there were so many people on the boat, and felt very entangled in his heart. I thought that if I didn't say it, I might regret it.

Jack and Fabry didn't say when gambling in the bar: "What troubles do you have when you have nothing?"

This is a bit sophistry optimistic!

Do everything to see God's will, try it!Situ Nan cheered himself up.

The wind and waves were calm, and the Atlantic Ocean was like a pond, but Situ Nan felt a strong anxiety in his heart, as if the calm sea contained great danger.

The Titanic was still advancing at full speed of twenty-three or four knots, like a long knife that was protruding rapidly through the Atlantic sea.Such a majestic posture made Captain Smith full of confidence in the Titanic, so even if he received sea ice warnings from nearby ships in the next few days, he would not take it seriously.

Smith ran the ship all his life, and he had never seen any storms. "The old horse knows the way." He was indeed an excellent captain, otherwise the first captain of the Titanic would not be his turn.

In fact, most of the maiden voyages of the White Star Shipping Company were assigned to Captain Smith. He worked hard for 30 years, and most of the new ships of the White Star Shipping Company were handed over to Captain Smith for the first time.

Smith began to look forward to the sensation caused by the Titanic after arriving in the United States next week, because it is not only the most luxurious, but also the fastest cruise ship!Retiring as its captain is also an honor.

It's a pity that Smith doesn't know that it is this kind of self-use and fluke that sometimes leads to irreparable losses.

"Keep pushing at full speed. I'm off work, it's yours." Smith said to the first officer Wallace.

In the afternoon, Situ Nan went to find his cousin Mu, and told him his thoughts. Once he bumped into the ice, he ran into him.

"This crazy idea is really funny. I'm the captain of the ship, don't you know how to do it?" If it was someone else, Mu would have slapped it, but Situ Nan was his cousin and he had to take care of it. This poor fellow.

It's like a driver was told, buddy, if there are obstacles on the road ahead, you should not turn and just run into it.

"Mu, I'm serious, listen to me, remember not to turn the rudder." Situ Nan was anxious.

"Well, Stonney, don't talk about it anymore. Why do I feel like you have changed since you didn't faint.

You used to never tell me this. Recently, you have become less talkative. Now you suddenly come to me and say these inexplicable things.I really don’t understand you, is it that you’ve been hurt?"

Mu stared at Situ Nan and said, he couldn't figure out how this cousin would have such an idea.

As the chief mate on the ship, he must lead by example and do everything in accordance with the rules and regulations. How can he follow the nonsense of Situ Nan?

Just kidding, even if Situ Nan said it was true, wouldn't he be held accountable if he didn't turn the rudder?If you turn around, it's not your responsibility.

Situ Nan was a little desperate, but it was a pity that he did not remember the exact time of the impact, only that the Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg in the early morning.

Now that even Mu doesn't believe in himself, what can be done?I did everything that was supposed to be done.

The Titanic crashing into the iceberg was the result of a series of mistakes. At that time, no one would have thought that it would sink, just like no one in the previous life would have expected an event like 9.11 to happen.

However, the fact seems to be about to become like that.

Chapter 8 The Second See Laura

When Situ Nan was on duty in the evening, he looked worried and hurried, watching the front from time to time, but it was a pity that the sea was dark, with only a few looming stars.

The cold wind pierced the bones, the dripping water turned into ice, and people shivered from the cold.Originally, the watchtower was Situ Nan's last hope. As long as the watcher issued an alarm in time, it might be possible to avoid a tragedy.

But when I looked around on the ship, I couldn't find a look-out mirror. It was ironic that the huge ship didn't have a look-out mirror!

In this kind of ghostly weather, there is no moon and it is dark, and you can only rely on starlight to guide the way. The human eye can see only a limited range, even with a look-glass.

The invisible danger is deadly.

There is an idiom called the tip of an iceberg, which refers to a huge iceberg, but the part of it exposed on the sea is only a small part of the huge body on the ice, so even if there is an iceberg in front, it is difficult for the observer to confirm.

"Damn it! Why should I do such unthankful things! Damn it!" Situ Nan cursed in Chinese and kicked the chair beside him into the sea.It's a pity that there was only the whistling wind in my ears, and the chair fell into the sea without a sound.

Night, quietly!

Situ Nan didn't dare to relax all night, shivering all night outside, as if he had been beaten by frost, and the East was about to light before going back to sleep.

Without encountering the iceberg, Situ Nan was a little grateful and worried, at least it was safe during the day.

Fortunately, he works night shift now.

Situ Nan slept in a daze and woke up in the afternoon. When Lao Bi came to discuss music with Situ Nan, he was rejected by Situ Nan. He is now annoying to death.

To be prepared, Situ Nan turned the only 50 pound banknote out of the drawer and put it in his pocket. There was also a large bottle of whiskey, a knife, and a bag of food. These were hidden in his uniform robe. The cold was the greatest cause of death.

Wear it close to your body when you are on duty at night.Situ Nan believed that by knowing some first-hand opportunities, and being a sailor, the chances of running on the transportation boat would always be greater.

...

Sometimes knowing that misfortune is about to come, but being powerless, and having to endure the torment before it comes, is more frustrating and terrifying than facing the misfortune directly.

Instinctively told myself that everything started to rustle.Situ Nan would rather tell himself: Maybe because of his appearance, the butterfly effect has occurred. This trip will be unpredictable, and the Titanic will eventually be safe.

But is this really the case?

Situ Nan was up and down in his heart.

So far, except that Jack and Rose were fictional in the previous life, everything else is the same as the original time-space development trajectory.

In particular, Captain Smith, who was stupid and self-employed, drove to New York at full speed regardless of the iceberg forecast, which had to make Situ Nan frightened.

He has already died once, so naturally he knows how to cherish life better.

It’s okay to be prepared, it's best to do some small preparations yourself without using it!It's evening again, the sunset is afterglow, the sky is golden, looking into the distance, the water and the sky are connected, and it is not clear whether it is the sea or the sky.

Although such scenes are shown in theaters almost every day, Situ Nan never felt that today's sunset was so beautiful, as if he had come back to life, with infinite reluctance for the light.

"Hi! Mr. William, we meet again." Laura walked over in the afterglow of the setting sun, soft light spilling on her face, reflecting her sweet smile.

"Yeah, we met again. This boat is so small!" Situ Nan made a rare joke, but Laura seemed a little indifferent.

"Actually, I like to be called Stoney by others, and all my friends are like this. (The ghost knows what friends he has.) By the way, Miss Laura, you are beautiful today." Situ Nan praised, he still feels better now Relax and enjoy the light before the day of whereabouts.
