The noble lady always has a little intuition
Chapter 29 29
In the vision of Olivia and the captain of the Carpathia, Luo Shiqiang, except for the cabin crew who are still sticking to their posts and working hard, they may not be able to get on the lifeboat, the rest of the passengers and crew can be rescued, but the last ten who came back Of the seven lifeboats, only the first nine were filled with people, and the last five lifeboats only had six or seven crew members each. Food and medicine, suitcases of first-class guests, an empty ship was left on the Titanic to see if those who had not been on deck could make it to the deck at the last minute to escape, and a lifeboat was left on board. It is to stay on the sea, keep a safe distance from the Titanic, and prepare to conduct a final search at any time after the ship sinks.
Olivia was very confused about this situation. She took and registered the list of all the passengers and crew members of the Titanic who boarded the ship. It turned out that only 320 of the three cabin crew members of 79 came, and the five postal employees all Did not come, four third-class cabin attendants and 110 three third-class passengers also failed to board the lifeboat.
When she was looking at the list, Andrews, who was willing to board the lifeboat almost at the last moment, also came over to look at the list as soon as he stepped on the deck, and there were only a few names next to the list of crew members in the engine room. When there were marks, and there were many third-class passengers whose names were blank, he raised his head sadly and closed his eyes to prevent himself from crying in front of the lady.
"Why did this happen?!" Seeing his sad but unsurprising reaction, Olivia asked in an unreasonable tone, and her eyes were still between him and Carl when she spoke. Looking back and forth, "Didn't you have someone open the gate between the third-class cabin and the second-class cabin?!"
Seeing her angry face, although she was a little angry because of her distrust of him, Karl quickly clarified for himself: "I did as you said, and after you got on the lifeboat, someone went to greet the third-class cabin crew. The guests were on deck, and I didn't even get in the lifeboats until all the women and children were in the lifeboats."
"Yes, Mr. Hockley did ask us to open the passage to the third-class cabin, but at that time...it might be too late..." After a deep sigh, Andrews explained in a difficult tone, "One At first, in order to allow the first-class and second-class passengers to get on the lifeboats first, the purser locked all the passages of the third-class cabin. Later, although the passages were opened under Mr. Hockley's order, the passengers of the third-class cabin may be in Before that, I was frightened by the infiltrating and gradually rising sea water, and left the main passage to find other exits, so... In addition, there are many problems in the third-class cabin, and there are only about ten attendants in the third-class cabin. Left and right, they simply didn't have enough time to inform all the guests and explain the situation at that time, and the aisles of the third-class cabin were intricate, and many of the guests were from countries that did not speak English, and they might not understand the escape instructions. Running in the wrong direction by myself..."
His explanation made Olivia completely speechless because it was unexpected. To be honest, she knew that the situation in the third class was bad, but she didn't know it would be so bad.
After trying to suppress the desperate thoughts that those third-class passengers might be running helplessly at the bottom of the boat, she handed the list to Brooke, who had returned to her side to guard after finishing helping the rope rescue work. The weak voice ordered: "You will stay on the deck for a while later, and when the last lifeboat returns, you will send the list to the telegraph room, and ask the telegraph operator to send a list of the victims to both the United States and the United Kingdom... "
Before Brook took over the list, there was a loud exclamation on the deck. Olivia, Karl and others quickly looked at the eyes of the crowd, and then they saw the figure of Titanic on the sea not far away. The bow of the ship is completely submerged in the sea, and the stern of the ship is completely raised from the water, almost vertically on the sea.
It took several minutes for everyone to recover from such a scene one by one, but before they started talking to the people around them, there was another loud noise from the Titanic, knocking everyone's Their eyes were attracted to the past again, and then they saw the scene where the Titanic broke through and the two huge chimneys at the stern collapsed and fell into the sea.
Everyone was so frightened by this scene that they couldn't speak. Along with the sound of splashing water from the chimney falling into the sea in the distance, low sobbing and choking sounds began to appear on the deck.
After the stern of the ship also sank into the sea, the sea surface returned to calm, and no trace of the Titanic's existence could be seen anymore, the people on the deck seemed to feel cold and tired, and began to slowly move into the cabin.
Because there is no energy to think about the room allocation of the group of passengers on the ship, and because Luo Shiqiang sent two lifeboats to check the situation on the sea before the Titanic broke in half, Olivia asked Olivia to Deli, Eleanor and the others went into the cabin first, and while drinking some hot soup to warm up, they discussed how to allocate the rooms. She herself stayed on the deck, followed Luo Shiqiang and some crew officers, and waited for the lifeboat to return to report the situation.
Originally, Olivia also let Carl go in together. After all, he still had an injury on his head, and he might have to help Audrey and the others talk to other people about the room arrangement, otherwise the first-class and Passengers in second class may not be willing to share a room with others, or even live in a room next to first class.
Unexpectedly, after the ship doctor simply bandaged the wound, Karl came out of the cabin. On his arm was Olivia's fur coat that had been wet by seawater and had been dried, and his hands were holding two cups.
He first handed the cup in his hand to Lai Fujie behind him, and asked Lai Fujie to hold the cup for him, and then he put his coat on the shoulders of Olivia who was standing beside the boat and clutching the railing tightly, "Dear Yes, it’s too cold now, even if you want to stay on deck, you should at least wear a coat.”
Olivia didn't answer him, but just continued to stare at the front. Carl was not annoyed by her reaction, but just took the cup back on his own, and then put the cup containing hot chocolate in her hand, while he He drank from a glass of whiskey.
After taking a sip of hot chocolate, Olivia finally calmed down a little from the grief and indignation because of the deaths of so many people, then turned her head slightly and asked, "Why did you get hurt on your forehead? Why don't you rest inside for a while?" ?”
"I accidentally bumped into a stake while helping to launch the lifeboat. It's just a minor injury. I'm fine."
Recalling that the white handkerchief that Karl was covering his forehead was dyed dark red, Olivia couldn't believe that it was really just a small wound, but she changed the subject: "You should stay inside, if Without your help to speak, Aunt and Eleanor may not be able to smoothly let other guests accept room assignment."
"Don't worry, apart from Mrs. Bedford and Eleanor, Mrs. Brown and Countess Roser are here, and Mrs. Strauss is also helping. No one will dare to have any objections." During the speech, Carl took the empty glass in her hand, and gestured to her for the glass of spirits in his hand, "Would you like to drink some wine, it will be easier to warm up. If you think this wine is too strong, I will help you." You bring champagne here."
"No need, that's fine."
Knowing that she was not in the mood to talk now, so after handing over the empty glass in his hand to Lai Fujie, he stretched out his hand to embrace her in his arms, and waited with her on the deck.
After about half an hour, the three lifeboats that were sent for the final search finally returned, but unfortunately they did not bring back any passengers who died, but only brought back several boxes of first-class guests who had been tied up by their servants. Suitcases on wooden boards, placed on the sea.
After a long sigh, Olivia was willing to turn around and go back to the cabin.
When she and Carl entered the cabin, the room had already been allocated, and all the passengers who had been tired all day had returned to their rooms to rest, leaving only the crew members who were busy until the last moment, and some third-class passengers who were last served cabin passengers, as well as Eleanor and Ellie who were waiting for them in the corner.
"You're finally coming in!" Seeing them, Eleanor hurried up to greet them, "You haven't eaten yet, I'll ask Ellie to bring some hot soup and meal packs."
"I can't eat, just help me get some hot soup, Ellie." After seeing Ellie go to the kitchen, Olivia looked at Eleanor again, "Has Auntie gone to rest already?"
"Yes, she was terrified tonight. She said she wanted to sleep after eating something, and so did Countess Rosser, so they went back to the room together."
Hearing that her aunt was sleeping with the well-matched Countess Rosser, Olivia felt relieved, "If you're tired, go back and rest first, and I'll go back right away after I have something to eat."
"It doesn't matter, anyway, Zooey should still be packing her luggage now, so I won't bother her in the past."
Because half of the last batch of lifeboats were unoccupied, Karl simply asked the crew to put all the luggage of the first-class passengers on it, and most of the first-class passengers just rushed to collect some important things at the last moment. They were the only ones who packed all the luggage, so Zoe couldn't pack Olivia and Eleanor's luggage for a while.
"By the way, I almost forgot." When talking about the room, Eleanor remembered that Carl didn't know the result of the room assignment, "Carl, you are sleeping in the same room as Mr. Guggenheim. Let's go to the room first."
Although just now when Eleanor said that Audrey and Countess Roser were in the same room, Karl knew that it was hopeless for him to be arranged to sleep in the same room by Olivia, but for him, If he couldn't be with Olivia, it didn't matter who his roommate was, so he just nodded to Eleanor to thank him, and then began to eat the lunch bag and thick soup that Ellie had just brought over.
After finishing the simple meal, Carl sent the ladies back to the room, and once in the room, Olivia let Eleanor and Ellie in first.
After confirming that the door was closed and that there was no one else in the corridor, Olivia looked at Carl, raised her hand and touched the place where he was bandaged, "Are you sure the wound is all right? Do you want to ask the ship doctor again?" Have a look?"
This was the first time she took the initiative to care about herself after arriving on the Carpathia, and Carl's depressed mood improved a little. He took her hand and let her hand stick to his face, "I'm fine, How about you? Is your left hand okay?"
"I'm fine." After finishing speaking, Olivia wanted to withdraw her hand, but he didn't let go, so she could only say again, "It's late, Carl, you and I should go back The room is resting."
Carl didn't listen to her, but instead pulled her towards him with her hand, and lowered his head to cover her lips.
For Olivia, kissing in the corridor like this is extremely disrespectful, but the fear and surprise when she saw Karl appearing on the deck earlier filled her heart again, so she didn't struggle for a long time. Giving up, she tiptoed her feet slightly, raised her arms around his neck, and responded to his kiss.
