[Titanic] True Love Is Eternal

"What... what?" Carl blinked strangely, he seemed unable to respond to what I was talking about.

I suddenly felt that I was so credulous that my brain was broken by the door. I would have no doubts when he said to slow down. Now it is April NO.14, and I will put all my chips on this unreliable guy. , put more than 1000 lives on his promise, and it turns out that when you fall in love, your IQ will plummet. It is a damned wise saying.

The boiling feeling gathered in the chest finally turned into an unbearable pain. If even this initial promise is false, I am not sure how much water is mixed with what this guy said.

I took a deep breath and forced myself to stop the hysteria. If Carl hadn't slowed the boat, then Andrew's eyes matched his answer. He was telling me a lie.

It is very likely that I am a mental patient in his eyes, so he will be so careful when treating me.

The possibility made me tremble with rage, and if even Andrew didn't believe me, there really wasn't anything I could do to stop the boat from going any further.He was the one most likely to stop the ship and the only savior I had access to.

Carl got up from the carpet, a woman's shoulder fall couldn't cause any real damage to him, probably because the expression on my face was too scary, which made him not know how to face me for a while.

"Did something happen? Emily." Carl tried to get close to me, and I took two steps back when he took one step forward, fearing that if he got too close, my brain would be boiled with anger and I wouldn't be able to think normally.

"I was in the captain's cabin just now..." I kept a distance from him, gritted my teeth and stared at his facial expression unsteadily, trying to see his true thoughts.

"The captain's cabin? Where are you going?" Carl has already realized that the object of my anger is himself, so his expression slowly twisted into an ugly and unclear.

"Go and listen to the captain's speech. He told me that the ship No. 16 can reach New York at night. This speed can cause a headline sensation and bring inestimable advertising benefits to the White Star Company."

Carl raised his brows strangely, and repeated my words in a high tone, "Advertising benefits?" After he finished speaking, he immediately figured out what I was talking about, and a trace of astonishment flashed through his eyes. He seemed to think that I shouldn't have discovered the Titanic. There was no such thing as slowing down, and then he raised his hand nervously, as if trying to comfort me, "Listen, Emily, the boat hasn't slowed down yet, maybe it's because of time. It's only past ten o'clock in the morning..." He Glancing at the small Roman numeral clock on the fireplace, he continued: "Maybe it will slow down at noon, you have to give them a time."

"It's already 46:[-]." With a headache, I reached out and rubbed my temples, trying to calm myself down. "What if it wasn't going to slow down at all?" If the boat was going to slow down, then the captain couldn't possibly be unaware that he was the one driving the boat, but the captain didn't look like he was going to slow down at all.

"You're just too nervous." Carl finally saw the opportunity, and walked up to me quickly, with his hands on my shoulders, but his body was tense, and his eyes showed a kind of unease. "And it's the Titanic, it won't sink if you don't slow down, there's no conspiracy, trust me."

I followed his drifting eyes, trying to see clearly the chaotic emotions in his eyes, but apart from seeing that he was very urgent, I couldn't even observe whether he was lying.

"What did you tell Andrew?" I hope he can expose the conspiracy of the White Star Company. As long as Andrew believes that there is a high-level conspiracy on the Titanic, then he will be more anxious than anyone else, even slowing down the ship to prevent the conspiracy from succeeding.This is the most important reason why I want Carl to testify, even if the conspiracy is against the Olympic, but because it is linked to the Titanic, then Andrew will slow the ship so that it cannot hit the iceberg just in case.

But Andrew didn't seem to believe the existence of this conspiracy at all, otherwise the ship wouldn't have accelerated to this point.So Carl never testified at all.

Carl bit his lower lip, he shook his head, and said as calmly as possible: "Andrew is not important, the conspiracy no longer exists, the captain and Ismay's decision to speed up is not a wrong decision, it will bring good publicity benefits for the maiden voyage .We are businessmen and we have to do business."

Well, that means he didn't testify at all, so to Andrew I'm just a babbling psycho.

"So you decided not to slow down, and you plan to turn on all the boilers and sail to New York Harbor at full speed, because this will give you huge benefits." Why do I believe Carl so much? I don't doubt that the ship slowed down. This kind of trust has been broken Sui Sui was simply mocking my worrying IQ.

Carl was stuck in his throat by my words, he swallowed, he could see what he wanted to say, but he didn't know how to explain it, and finally he hesitated and said: "I have plans to slow it down, even if I know it will lose a lot money, and it's a pointless move I'm going to slow it down."

"It's not meaningless. It will hit an iceberg. Do you know how many people died? Nearly [-]% of the crew members died, the third-class cabin was almost wiped out, and nearly two-thirds of the people would be below zero. Frozen to death in the sea water, this ship will be completely ruined, it will become the worst shipwreck in a century, no one will benefit. At that time, Southampton and New York will be wailing and bereaved. Grief will kill you bastards who only know how to do business."

I'm pretty sure Carl's lying, the boat isn't slowing down, he hasn't testified for me, and he's going to keep lying to me.

This kind of fact is like a cold spike, almost scraping out the warm feelings in my chest, and the pain is so painful that I can't control my desire to fight back.The anxiety and panic that had been staying on a sunken ship finally broke out collectively. I am not a superman at all, and I can withstand such great pressure without being indifferent.Knowing that everyone will run to die, but you are being dragged forward in this flood of death, there is no way to stop them from stopping, suffocating is like being pushed into the cold sea water early as dead.

Just before I despaired, Carl told me that he could prevent death.That commitment was a rescue, dragging me out of that suffocating terror that would then throw me overboard and drown me when I trusted him.

"There is no iceberg, this is not the Olympic. Emily, why don't you believe me, it can't sink, even if it doesn't slow down, it can't sink, and no one will die, no one will die." Carl grabbed me excitedly Arm, he couldn't understand me at all, because he didn't believe that something happened to the boat.

"So the ship won't slow down?" I'm pretty sure the Titanic will be happily speeding up today, and then happily hitting an iceberg tonight, because all my hard work will be in vain.

And looking at Carl's eyes, he probably thought I was delusional. To him, the slowdown I asked was just making trouble for no reason.

"No..." He paused for a moment, barely daring to look me in the eye, but the force holding me didn't allow me to escape, he seemed very worried that I would disappear without a trace if he let go. "I tried to bribe Ismay to ask him to slow down, and he agreed. But last night, when you were asleep, I went to him, and he told me the truth, the boat couldn't slow down. "

When talking about being unable to slow down, Carl's eyes drifted to the vase next to him, as if such words made him feel ashamed.

Then his eyes became extremely cold, and he said in a sarcastic tone: "That old idiot, who planned to use fake speeds to blackmail my wealth, but he found that even if he wrote fake speeds on the bulletin board, he couldn't fool me when the ship arrived in New York. Me. That's why he told me the truth when he couldn't think of a way to deceive me, because he still planned to do business with my family and didn't want to offend me just like that."

I tried to struggle to release Karl's confinement force on my arm, but found that he was gripping even tighter, and his body was in a state of alert, which meant that he was guarding against any of my movements. When he wakes up, if he is not vigilant, he may be thrown down by me at any time.

"I know you're mad, but it's a business, and the Titanic has to beat other cruise line ships so that White Star can grab the market. Slowing down is like telling people that the Titanic is flawed, it's a fatal blow to publicity , will also give the opponent an opportunity." Carl explained anxiously, worried that he would miss the opportunity to explain if he spoke too slowly, he flattened his mouth helplessly, "I said the boat is fine, why don't you believe me .I want to wait until New York to tell you, because then you'll be convinced that the conspiracy didn't happen on the Titanic."

In other words, this guy reached an agreement with Ismay last night, the ship will not slow down, and he will not tell me the truth until New York.
