When the crew changed shifts just now, three crew members did not hand in their guns. Under Wilde's interrogation, the three crew members said that they dozed off inexplicably last night, and when they opened their eyes, it was already broad daylight. The gun inside was gone.
The two found Captain Smith, and Wilde explained the situation to him.
Although Smith's face was calm, there were already waves in his heart.
"The gun must be recovered."
Wilde nodded: "Yes, the three crew members were locked in the room by me and Piedman took care of them."
"Why do they doze off?" Russell asked.
Smith was taken aback when he heard that, then frowned and said, "Go to the infirmary to find Vince and see if there is any missing medicine."
"Ok."
Wilde left in a hurry.
Captain Smith's expression became more and more serious, and he was thinking about something with a pipe in his mouth.
"Mr. Walker, do you have any clues?"
"There are no clues, but the loss of the gun is serious. If there is a riot on board, it will be an irreparable loss."
Smith stared at him, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I remember you told Ismay yesterday that you would put the Titanic on the front page of the newspaper..."
"Mr. Smith suspects me? Haha, well, I do. It's not my style to do that, though, because it doesn't get the Titanic headlines."
"What if someone dies? For example, a famous nobleman..."
Russell frowned, "Do you think I will kill people on board? The first thing the Titanic did when it arrived in New York was to put me in jail."
Smith was silent for a long time, and sighed: "You are right, Mr. Walker, I don't doubt you. I just want to ask if you have any good suggestions."
"First of all, we need to find out how the gun was lost, and secondly, we need to count how many guns were lost on the ship."
"Yes, it's pretty much the same as I thought."
Not long after, Wilde hurried back.
When he rushed to the infirmary, Dr. Vince was wondering why the door of the medicine cabinet was open.He remembered closing the cabinet door with his own hands when he left last night.
After Wilde explained the situation, Vince immediately counted the medicines, and finally found that most of the bottle of phenobarbital was missing, which is the second tranquilizer newly synthesized in 1911. It was sold and used in 1912. effect.
"Obviously, the other party is a gang. They first went to the infirmary to get the medicine, and then put the medicine into the crew's drinking water..."
Smith said, "Go and call all officers for a meeting in the wheelhouse."
"Yes."
After Wilde left, Smith turned to look at Russell.
"Mr. Walker, can you help find clues? If there are clues, I am willing to give you all the commission for this voyage."
Russell shook his head and refused: "I'm not a private eye, Mr. Smith."
"And what if you find the man who stole the gun?"
"Shoot him dead."
"That's really your style," laughs Smith.
"Mr. Smith, I have a bad suggestion."
"No matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than it is now. You say it, and I'm all ears."
Russell dug out a cigarette, lit one, and exhaled the smoke.
"I suggest that you gather all the people with guns on the ship and ask them to hand over all the guns to you for unified storage."
Chapter 87 Looking for a gun and committing crimes with a gang, she shocked the world
Captain Smith was taken aback when he heard the words, he thought carefully, if this is the case, it might cause a commotion.
Besides, it must be a gang who stole the guns. If they use guns to commit crimes on board, how should the passengers ensure safety and how should the crew fight back?
Russell also gave an answer to this.
"For whatever reason, ask the gun owner to hand over the gun for three days, and make it clear that they will return it before they arrive in New York."
Captain Smith has a list of all gunners in the ship. Most of the gunmen are private bodyguards and celebrities. As long as he makes it clear to them, he will definitely cooperate.
"How to do it specifically?"
Russell exhaled smoke and said with a smile: "Send three crew members to push a dining car covered with black cloth, and walk around from cabin to cabin. During this period, don't lift the black cloth to check."
"Let the thief hand in the gun himself?"
"Yes, I'm just offering such an idea. How to implement it depends on Mr. Smith's decision."
Smith frowned and thought about it, nodded and said, "I will consider it, thank you Mr. Walker."
"You're welcome, I'm going to protect Mrs. Brown."
"You are really professional."
"Thank you."
After he left, Captain Smith rubbed his chin and looked out over the blue sea beyond.
Immediately, the captain came to the wheelhouse and waited patiently. After all the senior crew members arrived, he re-summarized Russell's suggestions and explained them.
Second Officer Letler was stunned.
"Mr. Smith, will this work succeed? The thieves are obviously a gang. They first stole the medicine to stun the crew on duty and then stole the gun. This was planned for a long time. Will they be willing to return the gun?"
A pair of Murdoch: "What if the crew members are attacked by gangsters during the process of collecting their guns?"
"Mr. Walker's suggestion is very good, Mr. Smith, we only need to plan the details, and then we can complete a quiet collection." First Officer Wilde said.
"Tell me."
Wilde said: "This not only maintains the decency of the nobles and celebrities who lost their guns, but also keeps the jobs of the crew who lost their guns..."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
Captain Smith's heart is also brightened. It turns out that Mr. Walker's suggestion is so detailed and thoughtful, he is indeed a professional.
Except for the fifth officer on duty, Harold Lowe, who left first, the rest of the senior crew held a meeting in the bridge for nearly half an hour and did not leave until [-]:[-] am.
Everyone had their own division of labor, and Wilde went to the ammunition depot to count the ammunition, preparing to load and distribute guns to the crew involved in the 'operation'.
The second officer Lightler and the sixth officer Moody came to the lower cabin, and asked the engineer to make an iron box with a slanted interior with iron sheets. This kind of iron box can only put items in, but cannot be taken out by hand, and can only be opened by opening the lower lock. Take out the contents.
Then Lighter, Moody and the third officer Pittman pushed the iron box dining car covered with black cloth to the third-class cabin, and explained the purpose with the same words one by one.
Then push the dining cart into the cabin, wait 15 seconds and then push it out.
Wilde led the rest of the crew, armed with guns, at the stairs on both sides of the third-class cabin, observing the people moving in the corridor, and protecting the three of Lighter.
G-61 compartment.
Laimai glanced at the door, then turned and closed the door and said to Tommy, "They're here."
Tommy nodded calmly, "Mr. Walker has arranged everything and taught us how to hand in the guns. They won't find us."
Laimai believed deeply, "I believe in Mr. Walker very much. He has done everything he said."
"We followed a good boss," Thain said.
clang clang!
knocking.
Lemai got up to open the door, and the three crew members stood at the door pushing the dining station, looking at them with professional smiles.
"Hello, sorry to bother you..."
Immediately, the sixth deputy Moody explained the meaning of coming here.
It probably means that in the middle of the journey, some criminals on board began to act, and many passengers lost their belongings.Now that the captain had some clues, he felt that he could be forgiven and let them recover the lost items in this way.
Moody made a point of going to every cabin, even first class.
Now the third-class passengers have nothing to say.
The crew pushed the dining car in, then turned around and backed out.
Pittman covered the window with heavy clothes, and the outside could not observe the movement in the cabin.
The moment the hatch was closed.
Tommy got up and threw the gun under the bed into the iron box covered with black cloth, and quickly returned to its original position.
Fifteen seconds passed quickly, and after the cabin door was opened, the crew saw that the three were sitting in place as if they hadn't moved, and the black cloth on the dining car hadn't moved.
The second officer Lighter nodded, and took out the dining car with a blank expression.
Then go straight to the next cabin.
After the crew left, the three of Tommy were not complacent, let alone cheered. This was the result of Russell's instructions. Otherwise, they who had never done such a thing would definitely be extremely happy.
This kind of feeling of doing bad things without being discovered is very exciting...
Twenty minutes ago, Russell came to the third class to meet them, and they immediately took out the stolen guns.
Three Webley runners, two Ruger p08s, one mas1892 runner, one Colt m1911.
They were indeed a gang operation, planned by Tommy and executed by the remaining six.
Russell was very satisfied with their performance and awarded 140 cents on the spot.
This made everyone in Tommy very excited and full of energy, because they were affirmed by the boss and passed the boss's test!
When they arrive in New York, USA, they can work with their boss, earn a lot of money, and let their families live a good life!
Russell told them that they just need to wait quietly in the cabin, and someone will come to collect them, and the method of collecting them is very secret, no one will find out.
However, when Russell saw the Colt m1911, he felt a little familiar, so he asked the owner of the pistol.
Tommy explained the origin of the pistol. This pistol belonged to an old man with white hair and wounds all over his face. At that time, he was lying on the convalescent bed and was sleeping very hard. Lemay saw the holster on the bedside, so he walked over and took the gun away smoothly. .
It is certain that this gun belongs to Spicer, and there is no white-haired old man with wounds on the whole ship except him.
Russell patted Tommy on the shoulder encouragingly.
Tommy was very excited and said, "Boss, I will do better and better, please rest assured. By the way, Jack and Brizio next door also want to join..."
Russell frowned: "You agree?"
"Of course not. Jack said he was a painter, but he was actually a tramp!"
"That's right, our team doesn't want idlers waiting, I want elites!"
"Yes!"
Russell took the Colt m1911 and left. Before leaving, he specifically asked them to hand in the guns in batches.
Tommy didn't understand why, but now he does.
If all six guns are in his hands, the time for him to hand them over will be extended, and the time given by the crew is 15 seconds. 15 seconds is not enough to hand over six pistols. Putting three pistols in the iron box is difficult. Only two can be put in at most.
The purpose of the crew is obvious, just to see who is the thief.
Laimai stood at the door and turned his head: "They are all safe, the crew has left."
Thain said with emotion: "Mr. Walker is so powerful that he can even guess the minds of the crew."
"What if Mr. Walker planned instead of guessing?"
The two were stunned, a little dazed, "No, no way..."
"You don't know anything about Mr. Walker's abilities." Tommy pointed at the two and smiled.
--
Noon on the 12th.
Russell deliberately came to the ammunition depot when the celebrities and nobles and the crew gathered for lunch in the dining room.
"Mr. Walker! Your suggestion is great!" First mate Wilde was a little excited.
Russell asked with a smile: "Have all the gun holders turned in their guns? The lost guns have also been found?"
"Yes, the guns used by the missing crew have been found. But it seems that two or three of the gunmen have not turned in..."
Russell pulled out the underarm nickel-plated pearl white m1911 and placed it on the table.
