[Titanic] Harbor
Chapter 5
Erica returned the same way.
She meets a man with blond hair.
After the calculation, she met Carl and Ruth on this ship.She originally thought that she could not have any intersection with Jack, but it turns out that she has been watching the progress of their love.
What Jack was wearing - he obviously didn't have a suit, but was well-groomed for dining in first class.So he wore a linen pinstriped shirt with the first button undone.Erica took this as a hint that Jack was an opportunist who knew what to do when, but he also didn't forget to maintain his style.
He and Erica walked down the corridor leading to the second-class cabin.
After walking through a corridor, several people on the same road slowly turned to different corridors one after another.Only Jack and Erica walked straight forward, aiming at the door leading to the second-class cabin.
Jack notices Erica, who also feels the gaze directed at him.
"Miss." Jack quickened his pace, keeping the same pace as Erica who had been rushing.
"What's the matter?" Erica pursed her lips.
"Going forward is the second class. Maybe you are from there?" Jack looked at Erica with pure curiosity.
Erica frowned, she didn't want anyone to notice that she was in third class.But she happened to meet Jack!
At this time, Jack should have received an invitation from Carl. In order to thank him for marrying Ruth on the deck, and also to show his fiancé status to other men, Jack will go to the high-end restaurant of the first-class cabin to have lunch with everyone.
At that time, it will be impossible to hide the fact that Erica has been in the third class.
People would notice her in a way she hadn't planned, which made Erica a little angry at the blond guy in front of her.
"I know, I think the ticket in my hand is enough for me to go anywhere on this ship, except the captain's cabin, without being blocked!"
"Are you a first-class customer?" Jack's reaction was quick. He obviously hadn't guessed Erica's answer, but he quickly continued: "Are you more curious about the third-class cabin? Curious how other people on the ship live, and want to get rid of that restrained life?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Erica quickened her pace even more and replied dryly.
When the iron door was already visible, Erica was visibly relieved, thinking that she would be able to get rid of Jack soon.
At least for a short time, as long as she doesn't go to cafes or high-end restaurants, even if she goes to the library on the second floor, she doesn't need to see Jack.
Warm people can be overwhelming, especially if the person is relatable and has good intentions for you.
Erica looked ahead, and after the door was opened by the security guard, she breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down.
Her pace was back to what a lady should be, in line with etiquette.
It seemed to Jack that a girl had returned to the cage, shackled and unable to move.
Like Miss Ruth in the morning.She is obviously a perfect person from appearance to conversation, but there is such a fiancé who can't understand her.
Jack and Erica were separated in second class.Erica also has a survey plan for the second-class cabin, and she is thinking about the structure of the entire Titanic in her mind.She regretted more than once why she didn't know more about this ship back then.
In order to avoid Jack, Erica turned to the library halfway.
In fact, if the Titanic is not destined to be silent, maybe she will spend a long time at sea in the library.
But now, she didn't even have time to understand the world she was in.What is here, she will use what is not, she has no time to take care of it.
There is a small desk for borrowing and registration at the entrance of the library. This room is larger than the common room, which shows the wide collection of books.
Erica was unhindered as she walked in.This may have something to do with her straightening her shirt, and more importantly, this place is also open to the second-class cabin.
The second-class residents are mainly middle-class lawyers and professors.They have enough social status, but less money.
These people going to the United States can be regarded as a kind of brain drain. Of course, most of them are just going on study tours and investigations. Those who will really stay on the American continent are dreamers looking for opportunities and challenges. Many of these people Is a resident of the third class cabin.
When Erica walked into the library, she felt a little regretful.
There are many reasons for this, the simplest being her clothing and style and overall discord.
It is conceivable that a tall lady in a white shirt suddenly appeared among the many professors wearing glasses and men taking pens to copy.
Erica can be sure that standing next to all the men here, her height is enough to be half a head taller than them.It can only be said that the overall height of the men is relatively...unsatisfactory.
Erica awkwardly stood a little further away from a gray-haired old professor, so as not to provoke him on the issue of height.Although the other party will not pay too much attention to this kind of thing, it is still more rude.
Erica paid attention to the overall structure of the library.The solid wood bookshelves are very thick, and the book wall is composed of a large number of books. The taller bookshelves can only be accessed with the help of a ladder.
Every book has a book chain, which is more likely to be fixed than anti-theft on the ship.Rows of them are placed in a row, creating a huge visual impact, making people want to enter the ocean of books.
Erica liked books very much back then, but not all books of this era were suitable for her to read.The biggest problem is that the vocabulary and knowledge are too narrow. It may be very clear who are Basil, Hall, Dumas, Dickinson, Bulwer, and San?But Dumas was the only one Claireka knew.
Maybe the others are the author's name?
In the life of the original owner, there are only complicated and precise social etiquette, for the appreciation of objects and the pursuit of fashion, and maybe a few innocent love novels?But what is certain is that there is nothing related to literature and politics in the original owner's relatively free time and her absolutely free brain.
This made Erica completely helpless when facing the wall of books.
Facing this wall of books, she could only linger helplessly, but she couldn't take any of them away.
"Ah! I'm sorry!" The cultural influence made her a little uneasy. Compared with these scholars, she was as ignorant as a toddling child!This feeling of being lost is very uncomfortable.
"Please pay attention to your behavior, this young lady." A low-pitched male voice sounded next to his ear, but the voice was obviously reprimanded and disapproved.
Erica stabilized her body with the help of the man, and she brushed the broken hair that fell to her ears.
She looked up at the man she bumped into, hoping that the man would not be too angry now, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't..."
It is him again!
It was the man I saw in the cafe and corridors before.When you look closely, this man has a unique charm, like a big cat, or a leopard that is always ready to go, full of dangers, but amazing.
His voice was nice, deep but not hoarse, and Erica felt that probably all women would fall under such a voice.He is dangerous, but he has the quality that makes women go on and on.
Because of the impact, there was brief contact between the two people.The man's hands were cold and cold.It's not much worse than the steel plate that Erica touched before.
But it was this coldness that woke her up from her trance.
Waking up from a big dream!
"Be careful next time." The man said bluntly, and left with the books he had chosen.
"Wait a minute, sir!"
The man stopped, but didn't look back.It seems to be waiting for Erica's next words.
"I mean, I... don't understand something about these books."
"Perhaps what you don't understand is all the books here. I don't think I'm obliged to introduce anything to you. Excuse me, then!"
Erica watched the man's back, and he left without hesitation.
It's like...seeing through the shallow and ignorant soul in this body!
She thought it was really ridiculous.Leaving the world she was familiar with and the field she was good at, she was like a fish leaving the water, desperately thinking of using heresy methods to resolve the crisis.
But how can those outlandish methods work?Anyone with a discerning eye is watching a joke there.
Doesn't it mean that no one in this world is stupid?In the morning, I rejected a gentleman who struck up a conversation, but who knows, in the eyes of others, I am not such a person?
The so-called smartness is not enough to pretend to be smart!
"Miss...Miss? Is there anything I can do for you?" The library staff looked at this lady in a daze for a while, although they were not satisfied with this lady's attitude towards the library. Can't come here!Did she think this place was for chasing men?
But in view of his essential work, this gentleman still walked up to Erica bravely.
"I think... just read the book, the most basic is fine. I don't have a clue now." Erica went to a standard private school, which taught etiquette skills, and was more inclined to how to become a qualified hostess.
And Ruth went to college, and that's where the real skills were learned.Erica is now learning from the beginning. If she is self-study, she doesn't know how much time it will take.
But at least, what is obtained in this way will not be easily lost.
Life is never easy, it has always been this way, and it will always be like this.
But you get used to it, you get used to it.
Erica took away an introductory book on Latin amidst the veiled contempt of the staff.Although it's an introduction, but she can't understand it after a rough scan.
She is going to the dinner party today.This thing can only take time to watch.
She meets a man with blond hair.
After the calculation, she met Carl and Ruth on this ship.She originally thought that she could not have any intersection with Jack, but it turns out that she has been watching the progress of their love.
What Jack was wearing - he obviously didn't have a suit, but was well-groomed for dining in first class.So he wore a linen pinstriped shirt with the first button undone.Erica took this as a hint that Jack was an opportunist who knew what to do when, but he also didn't forget to maintain his style.
