Matriarch of the Hockleys

"It's because you insist on speeding up and making headlines." Smith said angrily, "Now, the Titanic really made headlines. Is there anything more attractive than 'the most complete giant ship in history sank on its maiden voyage'?" People's headlines?"

"What? Sunk!" Ismay's face was pale, "How could it be, how wonderful the Titanic was, how could it be! What happened?" Ismay yelled, he could no longer care about his demeanor.

"Iceberg, the Titanic crashed into an iceberg!" Andrew's voice was a bit difficult, causing Ismay to fall on the chair.

"Lettoller, go and see where the water is entering, and find a way to slow down the speed of the water entering." Captain Smith took a deep breath, and finally regained his usual composure.He turned and ordered.

"Yes, Captain!" Lightoller walked out of the main control room, "Go and check, there is a water leak."

Soon, news of the boiler room flooding reached Lightoller's ears.He ran to the boiler room with a serious face.Seeing the boiler room flooded with water, he hesitated and finally made a decision. "Everyone leave quickly and close the airtight door!"

Accompanied by his words, the crew rushed out of the boiler room, and the airtight door was quickly lowered. "Leave a few people here to guard. Once the sea water overflows, go to the main control room to notify me. Other people, look around to see if there is any leak! Find a way to slow down the speed of water ingress!"

Waiting has never been easy. Lightoller stood in the corridor with a nervous expression on his face. He didn't know how bad news he was about to hear.

"What's the matter!" "Second officer, in addition to the boiler room, there are four other cabins flooded. Although we tried our best to delay the flooding, we still couldn't stop the flooding." The crew member panted.

Five cabins!You must know that the Titanic can only withstand the cabin flooding at most.Lightoller ran towards the main control room with an ugly expression.

"How's the situation?" Mr. Andrew asked anxiously.

Although they had prepared in advance, they were still terrified when they learned that the five cabins had flooded.

"Andrew, how long can we last?" After a moment of silence, Captain Smith said nervously.

Mr. Andrew pondered, "At most, about two and a half hours! Prepare the lifeboat!" Andrew raised his head suddenly, "The lifeboat must be full of people, only in this way can the most people be saved."

"Okay!" Captain Smith thought for a moment and replied. "Let's go to the deck to maintain order!" "Letholle, go and inform the passengers to get on the deck and prepare to escape." "By the way, first-class passengers must be notified first!"

"Yes," Lightoller hurried to inform the passengers of the terrible news.

"I will stick to the post with you!" Looking at the heavy-faced Smith, Mr. Andrew patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

"Let's go to the deck!" Captain Smith pursed his lips, "Wait a minute!" Ismay, who had been neglected all this time, suddenly said, he smiled awkwardly, and handed a gun to Captain Smith, "Attention Safety!"

Although Ismay is a typical profit-oriented businessman, he clearly understands at this moment that Smith's safety is of great importance, at least for now only he can stabilize the situation.

Captain Smith took the gun silently, and hurriedly left the main control room, followed by Mr. Andrew.

"Hey! Is anyone there? Wake up! The boat is flooded," Lightoller led several crew members, knocking on the door as they walked!

"Oh! What's the matter!" "What a joke! Why did the Titanic get in the water!" "What's the noise? The Titanic got in the water, so what! It won't sink!" The passengers who were woken up complained .

"Ma'am, please get out of here quickly, you should go to the deck." Lightoller said seriously, but the lady didn't take it seriously. "Sir, you are too nervous! This is the Titanic, it will never sink!"

The few passengers on the side also nodded. They were hesitant, but they wanted to turn their heads and go back to their rooms.

"Gentlemen, the Titanic can't hold on. If you don't want to sink with the Titanic, please go to the deck! There are still many passengers who don't know about this, I have to inform them quickly. I hope this is not the case." It's the last time I see you, ma'am." Lightoller said solemnly, and then went on to inform the others.

Several passengers looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally put on heavy clothes and walked to the deck.

The Titanic was buzzing again, only this time with less joy.The passengers scrambled to the deck.

"Hey! Is there anyone? Open the door for me!" Jack was awakened by the noise outside the door.He vaguely heard someone shouting, 'The ship is sinking! 'He didn't bother to confirm whether there was anyone guarding the door.He banged on the door frantically.

However, the passengers passing by outside the door did not pay attention to the call for help inside the door.They only know that if they don't run fast, what will wait for them will be death.

Jack in the room took a few steps back, and suddenly ran and slammed into the door.However the solid wood doors leave nothing noticeable.The equipment on the Titanic is really good, which is a stark irony with the watchtower without telescopes!

Jack, who slammed the door again, stopped panting.He wiped the sweat off his brow, and prepared to continue bumping later.

"Ruth, let's go!" Mrs. Roof poured the jewelry into her sleeve, and she pulled Ruth to move with the crowd.

Ruth looked around, her face pale.Thinking of Jack being locked up, she bit her lip and let go of Mrs. Ruth's hand.

Sensing Ruth's movement, Mrs. Ruth hurriedly turned her head and shouted, "Ruth, Ruth, follow up." However, Ruth's figure quickly disappeared into the crowd.Mrs. Rufu gritted her teeth and finally turned her head.Ruth will be fine, she'll grab a seat for Ruth on the deck first!

Ruth, who retreated to the corner, glanced hesitantly at the crowd, then turned and left decisively.

"Jack, Jack, are you there?" Ruth called as she ran.

At this time, the crew had already notified the third-class passengers, and they hurried to the deck to cooperate with the captain's command.

"Don't squeeze! Get on the lifeboats in an orderly manner! There are enough lifeboats, and everyone will be saved!" In order to maintain order, Captain Smith lied.

Lightoller looked at the crowd and couldn't help firing a warning shot. "Children, ladies and old people go first!"

The noisy crowd finally quieted down. Although the tense atmosphere was still hanging over their heads, some men had already started to help the crew maintain order.

"Sir, no one can sit here, it will flip over!" A lady with messy hair said dissatisfiedly, she had never stayed in such a crowded environment.

"Ma'am, this lifeboat is limited to 70 people, it must be full! You can't let the rest of the passengers swim in the sea!" Mr. Andrew didn't care about maintaining his demeanor in front of the lady, he just wanted to try his best to save the passengers s life.

"Quickly, put on the life jacket!" Life jackets were passed on one by one to the crew and passengers who were maintaining order. "There is a lifebuoy on the lifeboat, so you don't need to grab it."

Soon the lifeboats were lowered, and people's faces were tense, but they were not as excited as before.

At this time, Andrea was pulling Mrs. Bruce and following the crowd through the hall.

"Andrea!" Carl was pleasantly surprised to find Andrea walking on his right. At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten his dangerous situation.

"Carl?" Andrea was startled by Carl's sudden voice.

Carl struggled to squeeze forward, and he grabbed Andrea's hand. "It seems that we are still very destined!" After speaking, he pulled Andrea and walked forward together.

"Sir." Leger followed closely behind Karl, he raised his right hand to prevent others from bumping into Karl.After nearly half an hour, Carl and Andrea finally arrived on the deck.

At this time, the sea water had already begun to spread. "Ho! Ho Ho!" Jack was so tired that he couldn't lift his breath. "Is anyone there? Help!" Sea water had already flowed into the room from outside the door. Jack looked at the water marks on the floor and kept beating on the door.oh!Can anyone help him, he's still stuck!

"Jack," Ruth seemed to hear something, "Jack, are you there? Jack!"

Ruth! ?Jack banged on the door and yelled "I'm here, Ruth, I'm here!"

"Jack," Ruth followed the voice to find Jack who was locked inside the door. "Are you all right, Jack!"

"I'm fine, Ruth. Can you help me get something to break through this door?" Jack replied ecstatically.

"What to use?" Ruth looked around, but didn't see any tools that could be used.

"Ruth, there's a fire ax around the corner, use it to split locks!" Ruth hurriedly removed the axe, at this time the sea water had risen to Ruth's calves, and the corners of her skirt stuck to her legs. I was shabby.

When the crew notified, Mrs. Ruth only took the jewelry, and then pulled Ruth, who was wearing thin clothes, away.At this time, Ruth regretted not wearing a coat, but she took the fire ax and walked towards that room without thinking too much.

"Jack, I got it. Back off a little," Ruth raised the ax and slammed it on the door lock again and again.The water was up to Ruth's knees.

Finally, the door lock was broken, and Jack pulled the door open forcefully.He hugged the pale Ruth suddenly, "Ah! Ruth, I love you!" Jack kissed and smiled with Ruth in the empty corridor.

"Let's go!" Ruth pushed Jack. "good."

The author has something to say: I have been hesitating about what kind of ending to give to Ruth. After writing this, I watched Titanic again.In it, Ruth's love for Jack may have a reason for yearning for freedom, but in order to save Jack, she also showed that she really injected sincerity into this relationship.So there may be ups and downs after Ruth, but there won't be a tragic ending.

I love you guys! *^_^*
