[Shen Xia] Britannia Rose

The cold and biting chill slowly invaded, just like the Thames River in the twelfth lunar month. Although there was no ice, the coldness entering the body still made people shiver uncontrollably.Isabella's whole body seemed to be soaked in icy water, and the last trace of warmth brought by her jacket was also deprived of by the gradually dropping temperature.

She frowned and looked at the air-conditioning outlet on the top of the subway. The equipment that originally circulated the warm air had obviously failed. The heating also goes away from them.Isabella moved her stiff fingertips, and she began to button the first button on the neckline all the way to the hem.

Isabella was not the first passenger to feel the temperature getting colder. The young mother opposite her wrapped her coat tightly, tightened the quilt around the child, and then turned her head to talk to the passengers beside her. Asked: "Do you feel... getting colder?"

"A little……"

"I feel it too, it's too cold."

"Did they turn off the air conditioner in the subway?! Damn, I even feel like it's blowing cold air!"

"Hey..." Finally, the bearded man who had been yelling that he was going to be late for work couldn't help it anymore, and he lost his temper at the flight attendant in a bad tone, "You don't tell us where you are going to take us, now Well, great! You're probably going to freeze us to death?"

"I'm sorry, sir," the female flight attendant squeezed out an ugly smile. The girl's face was very immature, and she seemed to have graduated from college not long ago. She tried her best to restrain her panicked tone and tried to calm the emotions of the passengers. It caused the air conditioner to fail, but please believe us, the conductor has already checked the fault as soon as possible, and we have also contacted the London Underground Terminal..."

"But it's too cold!"

"Yes! The child's clothes are relatively thin..."

The young female flight attendant bowed and apologized again. She didn't know how long the wait would last, and the passengers who didn't know what was going on now fell into a commotion again. They complained to each other about the subway operators, and some even got so emotional that they called the city council on the spot. Unfortunately, the signal inside the London Underground is notoriously poor, and everyone has no choice but to wait patiently.

The train is still running, the tunnel is pitch-black, and it is impossible to tell where it is now. Isabella raised her phone to check the time. It has been almost an hour. Combined with the speed of the subway at 42KM/H, she roughly Calculate the location.

The little girl next to Isabella kept silent, just clung to her mother's lap obediently, and stared shyly at the frightened passengers with her big obsidian-like beautiful eyes. As the temperature dropped, she Unable to bear it any longer, she asked her mother in a low voice, "Mom, when will we arrive at the station?"

The woman held back the little girl's hand that was holding her skirt. Even though her own palm was as cold as her own, she still tried to calm down and comforted her child, "Odell, don't be afraid, we will wait until the conductor uncle fixes the subway. We'll be there."

The girl nodded, and she asked timidly, "What if it keeps driving like this? What if it can't stop?"

The woman's heart skipped a beat, and everyone was relieved that this was an ordinary accident, and the subway would return to normal with a simple troubleshooting, and they could continue on the right track of their own lives, perhaps waiting for them to get off at the station. You can also complain to your friends about the unreliable London Underground Company, and you can make a few complaint calls to the city hall and ask the relevant person in charge to come out and apologize.

But everything is based on optimistic expectations, and they consciously shielded the worst possibility-train failure.

The little girl's words tore apart the peaceful illusion that the passengers had pretended for a long time. The crowd was silent for a second, and the bearded man gave the little girl an uneasy look. He raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly, and said in a reprimanding tone: "OhJesus! How could you think so?!"

The little girl was obviously frightened by them. Tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't understand how her worrying words could cause such a strong reaction from the adults. Little Odell buried her head in her mother's arms.

"She's just an eight-year-old child!" Odell's mother glared at them, "There's no need to be so harsh on a child, right?"

"Oh, child," the bearded man curled his lips, "I hope she isn't crow-mouthed."

Originally, the atmosphere in the carriage was oppressive and dull, but this sentence seemed to ignite a gunpowder storehouse, and the passengers started arguing with each other.

"To be so disrespectful to a child, I think the quality of young people nowadays is really bad!" It was a handsome old gentleman who said this, with a thick professional book under his arm, no matter when he was neat There is an umbrella in the handbag.At this moment, he is on the same side as the mother with the child.

"What's none of your business?" the bearded man asked angrily.

"That's right," the fashionable girl looked frivolously and unscrupulously at the gray-haired old gentleman up and down, and rolled her eyes with disdain, "It's really annoying, there are always people saying some grandiose things to educate others!"

"Didn't you be rude first?!"

The bearded man was about to say something, but suddenly, a terrified cry made them jump.

"Stop making noise! ​​Now there is a little bit of the Internet, just came across this...BBC headlines, a terrorist organization claimed that a bomb was stored on the subway! The train number...is the one we are taking now! "The young man's face was pale and he was sweating profusely. He was trembling and could hardly hold the phone.

"Don't talk nonsense!" The bearded man hurriedly ran over and snatched the phone. He stared at the news until he became dizzy and almost couldn't support his weak legs.

There was a sudden wailing and crying in the carriage. Some people took out their mobile phones and tried to reconnect to the network, including Isabella. Her heart skipped a beat the first moment she heard the news, and then she Surprisingly calm, she didn't know if it was because she was on the verge of life and death for the previous two times, she turned on the network, the signal loading speed was very slow, and a blank webpage was always displayed, until a text message suddenly popped up.

"Isabella, please reply immediately!——MH"

With the internet coming and going, she got seven missed calls and a dozen text messages from McCaw on and off.Isabella tried to call McCoff's phone again, but unfortunately there was still no signal.

The sudden appearance of the signal just now should be the reason why the train passed the signal base station during the operation, so that the passengers in the traditional "secret room" of this train had a chance to contact the outside world.

Isabella still edited a text message and sent it to McCoff, but unfortunately it always showed that it was being sent.

"It's true...it's over..." Some passengers also saw the breaking news. Their eyes were dull and their bodies were trembling uncontrollably.

"Mom..." Little Odell still didn't understand what this meant. She raised her head, but she was surprised that her mother was shaking from crying, so the little girl raised her soft little hand to wipe away the tears for her mother. Said innocently, "We'll be fine, Superman and Batman will save us!"

"..." The woman touched little Odile's soft golden-brown hair in despair, but she couldn't say a word.

"Mom, don't be afraid. The teacher said that as long as we call and tell them, they will definitely come to save us."

"Why?!" Someone screamed, "Why me? I just wanted to buy a bouquet of flowers for my girlfriend...why did this happen to me?!"

"What about me?! This bus is what I have to go to and from get off work every day." The bearded man seemed to be drained of strength, and he scratched his hair blankly, "No, I don't want to work anymore. I don't want anything... beg them to let me out of the car!"

"Get out of the car! Let me get out of the car!"

In response, everyone began to slap violently on the subway doors and windows. The flight attendant could no longer hold up the peace on the surface. She cried and dissuaded: "Please calm down, the speed of the train is as high as 40 kilometers per hour now. Jumping from the car is absolutely not allowed..."

It's a pity that the passengers who lost their minds in the face of death could no longer listen to her advice. The women took off their high heels and threw them on the windows. It was like a hell on earth was staged in the carriage, and their strong will to survive made them escape from this trip. Death subway.

"Mom! Mom!" Little Odell was petrified by them, she began to cry, and the other children and babies in the carriage also cried together, "No! Mom!"

In just 5 minutes, Isabella quickly went through the traffic subway map of the entire London city in her mind. All the places passing the signal base station were marked in red in her mind. It will take about 15 minutes for the next train to pass the base station. She had to seize the only time she had and make a phone call.

Someone finally smashed the glass, and the cold wind came in. He ignored the light signs passing by outside the window, and his whole body seemed to be hilarious, as if he had seen heaven, and he leaned out.

"Stop!" Isabella stood up abruptly, and she ordered loudly, "Sit back! Otherwise, you will be swept back to the rails by the airflow and become a pool of meat."

The deafening cry subsided, and the man turned his head to look at the girl who suddenly stood up. She had golden hair, a beautiful and delicate face, and she exuded a strong sense of superiority. Coercion.

"I'm Isabella Mountbatten Windsor, please don't panic, no matter what happens, I will go through it with you."

Everyone raised their heads to look at this blond girl with firm eyes, Her Royal Highness Princess of the British Empire. I have to say that no matter how bad her highness's reputation is, at such a critical moment, she was able to stand up and support her. The people of the British Empire overcome difficulties together, and in their hearts she feels reassuring like a queen.

Don't underestimate the importance of the royal family in the hearts of the British. At least at this moment, the young princess's back is as straight as a pine tree. What she said gave the group of bewildered passengers a shot in the arm.
