"Mr. Astor, here is a raft made of bed panels and door panels. Put the raft in the sea and escape."

Astor frowned and asked, "What about you?"

"I...I can swim." Russell said indifferently.

"No, I can't leave my friend behind," Guggenheim said.

"Walker, people often say that adversity is a testament to friendship. You are indeed a very good friend. If there is no command from you, there may be some troubles." Isidore said.

"Let's go together, Walker, you're a real man."

Russell said with a smile: "You are also true gentlemen."

"Hahaha…"

Everyone laughed.

Astor and the others went into the sea on a simple raft, desperately paddled the planks in their hands, and fled far away.

Why desperately?Because the boat was falling, there was a certain amount of suction, so if you didn't try your best, you could only spin around in place, and was eventually swallowed by the sea.

Telegraph operator Philip was submerged in the sea after sending the last distress message.

The band stopped playing, and Wallace and the musicians turned their heads into the cabin to wait for death.

And Russell stood in the middle of the boat, and said to Tommy next to him, "Do you hate me for not letting you leave early?"

Tommy shook his head: "You are a good boss, I am willing to follow you, even if I die in the sea."

Thain muffled: "I am willing too."

"I don't want to die, but someone has to die," Lemay said.

Adam: "My family is already on the lifeboat, it doesn't matter if I die, thank you boss."

"Do you think I'm really so cruel? Look, Lowe is back rowing."

"This is…?"

"There are a lot of vacancies on the lifeboat. I asked Lowe to transfer the passengers on the boat to another boat, and then he would row the boat back to pick me up. To be honest, I don't want to die."

"Boss, you...you are too scheming."

Russell smiled and said, "I'm not a good person, don't think too much of me, jump into the sea, like Mr. Ismay, with guilt."

After speaking, Russell jumped down.

Tommy followed.

Then came Lemay, Sion, Adam...

They were only about six meters above the sea surface. After jumping into the sea, they only felt that the sea level was bitingly cold. After their heads were exposed to the sea surface, they swam towards the distance.

Russell and Tommy grab hold of the lifeboat gang, and Lowe pulls them aboard.

At the same time, the lights of the whole ship went out.

Russell sat on the lifeboat and looked at the huge Titanic. He saw his stern tilted high, then broke from the middle, and hit the water heavily.

"Row the boat!"

Lowe yelled.

After Tommy and the others boarded the boat, they kept rowing desperately with a wooden paddle in their hands.

"It's going to sink, row quickly!"

The engineers on the ship had long since died in their posts, and even the electrical engineer was electrocuted to death at the moment the lights on the ship went out.

Russell's lifeboat rowed 200 meters away.

As soon as I raised my head, I saw the stern of the ship sinking at 90 degrees, and it sank completely in less than a minute.

Chapter 99 After the catastrophe, give the hero a title

When the stern of the ship was completely submerged in the sea, a huge vortex was created, which sucked the passengers and crew who remained on board into the icy water.

Some people sank to the bottom of the sea with the Titanic, while others struggled to float up, with their heads exposed to the sea and gasping for breath, pulling everything around them that could be suspended in panic, including the dead bodies that had already become stiff.

The disaster lasted at 2:40, and the world's largest and fastest cruise ship 'Titanic' sank into the Atlantic Ocean forever.

Russell commanded Tommy, Lowe and others to row the lifeboat towards the sinking position of the Titanic.

Sweeping towards the dark sea surface by the moonlight, I vaguely found a simple raft with three people lying on it, it was Astor, Guggenheim and Isidor.

"Astor!"

The three people on the raft heard the sound and raised their heads slowly.

Then he saw a lifeboat rowing towards them and said excitedly, "I, Walker! It's me!"

They were all a bit worn out from not working very often and being old.

The lifeboat came to the improvised raft, and Russell pulled the three of them aboard, and asked Lemmay to tie the raft behind the lifeboat and drag it.

"Why are there only three of you, Gordon?"

Astor and Isidore were startled, and stammered: "He, he..."

Guggenheim said with a sullen face: "Walker, don't ask, Gordon has already died in the sea."

"It turns out that Gordon, like Mr. Ismay, chose to fall into the sea because he was ashamed of the world." Russell said with raised eyebrows.

Astor nodded: "Yes, he is very guilty!"

"Take off your clothes, you can be warmer like me."

"Okay, okay."

Yixiduo was the oldest, and his physical fitness was naturally not as good as that of young people. After soaking in sea water for more than ten minutes, he was shivering from the cold, and his speech was slurred.

Nighttime temperatures in April in the North Atlantic are somewhat low, averaging around minus four degrees Celsius.

Because the clothes are soaked in seawater, they are already frozen at this moment. If you don’t take off your clothes, it’s like wearing an ice coat, but it will be much better if you take off your clothes. After all, the human body has a self-heating system that can last a few more times in the cold night. Hour.

People who are still struggling in the seawater, if they don’t organize rescue as soon as possible, they will be frozen to death due to gradual loss of temperature!

Astor and the others sat in the lifeboat, swinging their arms and body to warm up their bodies.

The three looked at each other and did not ask Russell why he was on the lifeboat. At least they survived and were rescued by Russell again.

After all, this was the second time that Russell killed them.

"Walker, are we going to wait for help?"

Russell replied: "When we jumped into the sea, the crew told me that the Carpathia was the closest to us and had already arrived."

"You jumped into the sea too?"

"Yes, my staff and I jumped into the sea collectively, because there were too many people on the boat, and we were also very guilty. But Mr. Lowe came back with a lifeboat and rescued us from the sea."

"Yes." Luo Wei nodded appropriately.

Astor said: "Walker, you shouldn't blame yourself, you rescued many people, and you saved us three old guys."

"I'm a security consultant..."

Guggenheim said: "You are the best security advisor in the world, Walker. Don't feel guilty. Without your command and order, more people would die."

"Yes, yes." Isidore nodded.

Russell smiled wryly again and again, but did not answer.

Then, with their full cooperation, another five or six people were picked up from the sea and arranged on a simple raft.

When the lifeboat sailed to the accident point, eight simple rafts and planks had been tied up behind it, and people lay or sat blankly looking at Mr. Walker who was paddling vigorously ahead.

All of a sudden, my heart was moved. Without Mr. Walker, all of them would have died, frozen to death in this cold night, unable to see the sun tomorrow morning.

"Mr. Walker, are you tired? I still have strength, I can replace you."

Russell shook his head: "No, you try to move as much as possible in the back, so as not to freeze your body."

"...Mr. Walker..."

Seeing that he was so stubborn, others could not persuade him, so he silently used the wooden plank as a paddle, gritting his teeth and paddling.

Although every time they paddled, they felt very tired and exhausted, but seeing Mr. Walker, whose black hair was crystallized in front of him, working so hard, they all tried their best.

Astor and Guggenheim also joined in, and instead of boards, clothes that had been frozen into popsicles were used instead.

In the end, Russell led the rescue of nearly 80 people on the sea.

Among them are nobles and celebrities, and there are low-level civilians...

They paddled to meet the remaining 19 lifeboats.

More than a thousand people on the lifeboat, when they saw the black heads, wept with joy and were very excited.

"Mr. Walker!"

Ruth opened her red eyes and roared excitedly.

Mrs. Brown slumped on the boat and wiped the corners of her eyes.

When Ada, Madeleine and others saw that their husbands were still alive, they were overjoyed and speechless with excitement.

"Any extra clothes?"

"Yes! Mr. Walker, you wear this!"

"I have a blanket!"

"Put it on quickly."

The passenger ship Carpathia of the Canard Company was the first to arrive at the scene of the accident.

It was half an hour earlier than in the movie.

After Russell found the light in the distance, he immediately asked the crew to send a distress signal with light language.

The lookout of the Carpathia was the first to discover them and reported to the captain. The captain immediately ordered to come at full speed and lowered the lifeboat to prepare for rescue work.

Sixteen minutes later, survivors of the shipwreck boarded the deck of the Carpathia.

But the class phenomenon is still very clear. The nobles and celebrities are invited to the VIP room to drink coffee and strong tea, while the common people at the bottom can only drink hot water on the deck or corridor.

Russell was personally invited by the captain to rest in the VIP room. His performance in the shipwreck was supported by all the survivors, claiming that Mr. Walker was a hero, and he rescued at least 300 people in the shipwreck.

Originally, he wanted to stay and have a heart-to-heart talk with the people at the bottom, but the captain's kindness was hard to accept, and Astor and others were helping the flames, and the people at the bottom also persuaded him to go to rest...

So he went to the VIP room, put on a fur coat, roasted the stove, drank strong tea, and had a hearty breakfast with Ruth.

This is the treatment of heroes.

In this disaster, originally only 705 people survived.

But thanks to Russell, more than 1300 people survived.

It's a miracle!

There are only 20 lifeboats with a capacity of 1060 people. In such a chaotic situation, it is not easy for more than 300 people to survive through simple rafts, surfboards and other floating objects.

Moreover, after the ship sank completely, Russell took people back to rescue 89 passengers and crew.

"I know people in the Pulitzer family and I can ask them to promote Walker's heroism."

Astor and others gathered together to discuss how to repay Russell, how to describe the shipwreck process with the media, and the farce of the robbers.

Guggenheim suggested: "Find someone with a high level of copywriting. Mr. Isidore, do you know anyone? All I know are editors of gossip columns."

"Of course, leave it to me."
