Surrounded by sea water that was so cold that it could pierce into bones, Cynthia felt that the temperature of her body was gradually losing when she was soaked in such water.The body exposed to the water was not much better, she felt her hair was slowly freezing, showing how low the temperature was.

She looked down at the trembling hands, suppressed the thought of giving up in her heart, and waved her hands trying to grab something.

Beside them are people who just fell into the water. Some of them failed to swim up when they fell into the water, and they sank slowly like this.Some desperately swam toward the lifeboat, calling for help to make them notice themselves.

Cynthia suddenly saw a large boat half submerged in the water, and a little light could still be seen from its windows.It's just that as time passed, it finally sank to the bottom of the water slowly, and the waves it set off at the last moment also swept away the people around it.

The person who was smashed down by the side of the ship must have no possibility of surviving.Cynthia's body shook violently, and she tightly grasped the board in her hand as if it was her last hope.

She tried to climb onto the floating plank, at least it would keep her out of the freezing water.But after several attempts, they failed. Not only did the people next to her not help Cynthia, but several people even came up to snatch her board.

Finally, a middle-aged man who was much stronger than Cynthia snatched the board, and threatened her with a trembling voice: "Don't follow, or I will push your head into the water."

Cynthia didn't dare to argue, because there were too many dead people around, and those people who were frozen into popsicles were floating on the water one by one.The sense of powerlessness in her body made Cynthia slowly despair. She called for help in a low voice, hoping that someone could hear her.

The man lying in front of the wooden board in front made Cynthia feel very familiar. She opened her eyes wide, trying to see who it was.

At this moment, she seemed to have a little strength again, and Cynthia swam forward for a while.When she saw the man's profile, she couldn't help exclaiming: "Jack, Jack, why are you here..."

So the tragic scene in front of you is the sinking of the Titanic?

The dark sea, the floating corpses, the boy guarding his lover.

Cynthia sat up from the bed clutching her chest, her head lowered and panting continuously.It was a dream, she dreamed of the scene in the movie of her previous life, those people and Jack were all dead, frozen to death.

The time displayed on the bedside watch was twelve o'clock in the morning. Cynthia counted the days, and today was April [-]th.At this time, the Titanic should have hit the iceberg. For the passengers, this is the beginning of the nightmare.

Cynthia took the water on the bedside and took two mouthfuls of cold water.The cold feeling in her throat made her more awake, and she broke away from the desperate scene just now.

In the following time, Cynthia did not feel sleepy at all.She was half-sitting on the wide bed, unconsciously stroking the patterns on the quilt with her fingers.

The hour hand slowly moved to three o'clock, and Mycroft, who was falling into a deep sleep, was awakened by a knock on the door.

With a dark face, he took out his nightgown, and the first thing he said when he opened the door was: "You'd better inform me about something important."

The female secretary at the door looked no better than McCoff, and she handed the note in her hand to McCoff.

"Just received a telegram from the Paritia that the Titanic has sunk."

The first thing that came to Mycroft's mind was the important people who boarded the Titanic. After thinking about it, he realized that the list was so long.Not only the richest aristocrats but also some politicians, if these people all died on the Titanic, then the shock in Britain is inevitable.

He didn't care about wearing only a nightgown, and strode towards the telegraph station.The Palitia was the ship borrowed by Sherlock. There was not a single passenger on this ship bound for New York, and they were all under McCoff.

"What's the situation now?"

The female secretary immediately explained to the boss as if she was endorsing a letter: "It seems that the Titanic hit an iceberg. The designer and captain of the ship calculated that the ship was about to sink, so they sent a distress signal by radio. The Palitia is the closest ship to the Titanic, and although it has been following it, the Titanic has been accelerating in the past two days."

"There was a distance between the two ships, so it took an hour to get there after Palitia received the signal. The condition of the Titanic was not very good when we arrived. Most of the lifeboats had been released, but the passengers had been scattered. There were some casualties."

"Paritia quickly participated in the rescue after arriving. The rescue operation is not over yet. The sea temperature is too low, and the Titanic continues to sink. The number of casualties is temporarily difficult to count. Our people will use the telegraph on the ship to follow up the situation. Sir, after the rescue is completed, will the Palitia return to England or go to New York."

Mycroft pondered for a moment, "Go to New York, I will notify the Prime Minister."

Regardless of the number of casualties, the news of the sinking of the dream ship was enough to make Britain boil. The unprecedented grand scene when it set sail on April 4th is still vivid in my memory, but now it has sunk in the sea forever.

With more than 2000 people on board the Titanic, the rescue operation took several hours.Rescue boats kept being lowered, and those on the Palitia lowered rescue cables.However, there were too many people on board, and the scene was still chaotic when the lifeboat was launched.Many people tried to ignore the priority of women and children, hoping to be rescued earlier, so the crew had to shoot warning shots.

In order to maintain the power on board and prevent the ship from sinking too fast, many crew members on board still insisted on their posts until the seawater filled the cabin.

In the final moments of the Titanic, in order to avoid being drawn into the vortex caused by the sinking of the huge Titanic, the Palitia had to drive a certain distance sideways.

Because of the rush, many of the 48 lifeboats were released before they were full.When the ship sank at the end, many people jumped off the Titanic and swam desperately to the Paritia. The broken chimney fell from the sky and hit the struggling people.

The news of McCoff made many people in the British government unable to sleep, and they rushed to Downing Street in the early hours of the morning.This group of people guarded the telegraph, waiting for the number of casualties. They more or less knew the first-class passengers of the Titanic.

Even if it is not a kinship relationship, they have met each other at various social events.When I heard the news, I couldn't help but feel that something hurts its kind.

The accident on the Titanic sounded the alarm for them. I am afraid that only God can guarantee that a ship will never sink, and they are just human beings.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the Paritia sent the latest telegram: 502 casualties on the Titanic, among which the staff accounted for more than half of the number.

After the Prime Minister heard this number, his back bent a lot.He rested his right hand on his forehead, and his voice was dry: "I will inform His Majesty the King that the United States should receive news soon, and the next matters need to be arranged as soon as possible. We don't want to see accidents happen, but The accident has come and we must keep our spirits up."

All the other MPs nodded in agreement, and McCoff had already exited Downing Street.

He said to the secretary next to him, "Find Sherlock for me, even if he lives a savage life in the tropical rainforest, I will meet him."

Sherlock had to explain to him why he could predict the sinking of the Titanic.It couldn't be that some villain moved the iceberg in front of the Titanic and hit it.If it was a complete accident, how the hell did he come up with the idea of ​​letting the ship follow the Titanic.

Journalists with a keen sense of smell also received a telegram from New York. Regardless of the number of survivors and the list, the sinking of the Titanic alone deserves a headline.Not surprisingly, all the newspapers will publish this news tomorrow. If it wasn't for the fact that today's newspaper has already been printed, I'm afraid they can't wait to change the headline.

Cynthia didn't get up until Gwen knocked on the door that day, and her face was pale because she didn't sleep for half the night.After resting at the table to see something was wrong with her, Robert asked if he wanted a doctor to come over and take a look.

"No, I just haven't had a good rest. I'll just go back to my room and sleep for a while."

Robert nodded and didn't ask why she didn't rest well.Cynthia is the most assertive of the daughters, and even Mary is not as stubborn as her.

William is holding a plate in one hand, with the other behind his back.There was a yellow envelope on the tray, and he went straight to Cynthia, stooped and handed her the telegram.

Cynthia opened the envelope, but what was written on the letter was a mess of Greek letters, and there was no sentence at all.The signature at the end caught Cynthia's attention, sh, among the people she knew, Sherlock Holmes was probably the only one who could write such a strange letter.

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Cynthia would probably jump up because of this letter.Sherlock was still alive and well in this world, which pleased her more than other news. The Greek letters on this letter couldn't even form a sentence, so it must be read in the wrong way.

The password letter plus the Greek letters, of course, Cynthia's first thought was the belt password.She can speak Greek, that's right, she can think of any password, but Sherlock didn't point out the thickness of the wrapped stick.

They didn't agree in advance, so how should she read it?

"Did the messenger say nothing else?"

William shook his head: "No, miss. He just said that the recipient was you, and then left."

He didn't seem to understand why Cynthia asked such a question.I don't know how many postmen will take over a letter, and who will let them pass the message.

Cynthia thought for a while, then took back the envelope and checked it carefully.Sure enough, an initial was written on the corner of the envelope, this time it was mh, Mycroft Holmes.

Two names were written in a letter, and Cynthia recalled the next few times she met with Mycroft, who seemed to have been holding a cane in his hand.So this is a reminder of the stick, and Cynthia thought about the approximate thickness of the cane.

"Can you help me find a stick about four centimeters?"

William became more and more strange, but he didn't say anything and went on to find a stick of about the same thickness.

Cynthia quickly finished her breakfast and returned to the study with the letter, which she wanted to rewrite on strips of paper for easy winding.

When the writing was finished, William sent the stick, and Cynthia wound the note on it, and slowly read the content.

"Miss Witch, the commission has been completed. The result is not perfect, 502 people died."

The author has something to say: Moyu at work has perfected the previous pre-received articles, and decided to write this fanfic first.After all, Captain Marvel in March and Avengers IV in May couldn't control his desire to write Chaoying.
