At this time, Isidor's wife, Ada, said: "It is best to give Mr. Walker a title and praise his heroic deeds."

"It's true that stories are hard to remember, but titles are easy."

"..."

The rescue work on the Carpathia lasted until 8:30 in the morning, and 387 remains of the passengers and crew were recovered, and the rest sank with the Titanic.

After the list of survivors was counted, the captain and the priest presided over a memorial service in the great dining room.

However, after the ceremony, the survivors did not leave the restaurant, but Astor took the stage to give a speech, explaining Walker's heroic deeds in the shipwreck, and describing the cause and ending of the robbers' farce.

After unifying the caliber, the survivors moved on their own.

--

New York Harbor.

The Carpathia passed the Statue of Liberty, and the survivors stared at the huge statue, stunned for a long time.

There is an indescribable emotion in my heart, like the fear when the disaster strikes, the joy of remaining alive after the disaster, the gratitude to Mr. Walker, and the pain of losing a loved one.

Very complicated, very melancholy, hard to tell.

The Statue of Liberty slowly moved back, ahead of the Bartley coast of Manhattan Island, tens of thousands of people were watching the ship.

At Pier 54, there were also 3 people standing in the rain, silently welcoming the survivors of the Titanic...

The sinking of the Titanic shocked the entire Western world!

Flags were flown at half-mast in many places on both sides of the Atlantic to mark the moment of silence.

King George V of England and President Taft of the United States exchanged condolence telegrams, and even Kaiser Wilhelm II sent condolence telegrams.

After the survivors arrived in New York, many media rushed to interview them, trying to get exclusive gossip from them.

However, the low-level civilians did not lose their humanity under the temptation of money. They simply ignored the media.

They are still in grief, fear, and rejoicing that they have not recovered. The media wants to use their pain to gain newspaper sales?Is there any fucking humanity!

Before disembarking, Astor and Guggenheim found Russell and invited him to stay at home for two days, otherwise he would not be able to find a place to live in New York.

Russell tactfully refused, and he made it clear: "I am still Mrs. Brown's security adviser, so I cannot leave."

Astor and the others looked at each other and gave their evaluation.

"specialized!"

"Walker, I will definitely support the opening of your security company in New York."

"Me too! Give me a message."

Guggenheim said: "Don't worry about the media, leave everything to us, and everything will be made public in three days at the latest."

"What should the robber say?"

Isidore said with a smile: "Walker, please rest assured and leave it to us. I will find the most powerful editor in the United States to write the copy."

"Okay, then leave it to you."

Seeing that he was leaving, Astor grabbed his hand a little excitedly, and said solemnly: "Walker, I am very grateful to you for saving me, so we must keep in touch frequently, we are not ordinary friends."

"Yes! Walker, don't be polite to me in the future, our relationship should be closer than brothers." Guggenheim said.

"Okay, after I successfully complete Mrs. Brown's business, I will open a security company and invite you to come to my company for tea."

"no problem."

Guggenheim said with a bitter face, "Walker, you know I don't like drinking tea very much. If you prepare some brandy, I think you will definitely get very drunk."

"Of course. See you, upstarts."

Everyone laughed and waved their hands.

"See you!"

Chapter 100 Metropolitan Purgatory Field, Rules

At Pier 54, there were many onlookers standing, some of them were relatives and family members of nobles and celebrities, and there were also a few people in power.

The reason why Russell was unwilling to disembark with Astor and others was because of these people in power.

At present, he doesn't want to contact those in power prematurely. At this time, the contact will probably not be taken seriously, and it will only add mistakes.

Waiting for Astor and others to mention Russell Walker's name frequently in front of them will leave a better impression when they meet again.

They are different from Astor and the others, they are more realistic, and they adhere to the principle of supremacy of interests.

Therefore, Russell also has different tricks and countermeasures for different groups of people.

He ignored the condolences and interviews from the media and onlookers, and left with Ruth, Mrs. Brown, and two maids.

Just out of the pier, there are orange taxis waiting to solicit customers.

Russell waved two taxis and drove towards the Peninsula Hotel in Manhattan.

Looking at the buildings on both sides, I suddenly have a feeling of returning to the 21s. People are walking on the side of the street in suits and top hats, cars are roaring, and tall buildings are standing...

But the air here is not fresh, filled with the smell of gasoline and industrial waste, although not very pungent, it smells very uncomfortable.

Even Mrs. Brown is feeling that New York has changed so much after two years.

At this time, the Flatiron Building, a landmark building in New York, has been built for nine years, opposite Madison Square.

At the same time, after more than 260 years of rule by the Qing Dynasty, the great eastern country suddenly disintegrated, and the heroes separated themselves...

Now New York's population has reached one million, laying the foundation for the future metropolis.

However, it is not the world's first metropolis with a population of one million, because as early as Chang'an in the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the country of the East had reached a population of one million!

The Peninsula Hotel was built in 1905. It is a 23-storey building with unique French-style Beaux-Arts architectural features, and it is also a local landmark!

It is located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 55th Street in the heart of Manhattan, just a few steps from Broadway.

When getting out of the car, a doorman opened the door. Mrs. Brown did not forget Russell's warning and gave the doorman 20 cents as a tip.

She booked two large suites at the Peninsula Hotel. Because she was too anxious to escape, she didn't bring much cash, only more than 4000 US dollars.

But it is enough to open two rooms and live here for two weeks.

"Mr. Walker, I have to go home tomorrow, and I will deposit half a month's room fee at the Peninsula Hotel for you."

"No, I only live here for three or four days, and then I have to register the company."

"Do you need help?"

Russell asked, "Can you register the company for me?"

"of course."

"Thank you so much, I just have other things to do."

Mrs. Brown said: "Don't be polite to me, Mr. Walker, you saved my life."

"Don't always talk about this matter, I am your security consultant, and this is my duty."

Mrs. Brown shook her head: "No, you know how you got on the ship. I think the three servants will be very grateful to you when they know that the Titanic sank."

"Haha... It's not bad if they don't complain about me."

Mrs. Brown said with a smile: "When I get home tomorrow, I will send someone to help you register the company."

Registering a company at this time is very cumbersome and requires various documents and materials as well as identification, but Russell does not have these, and it is impossible to successfully register with just one mouth.

It is naturally much easier to have Mrs. Brown do it for me.

Immediately, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The decoration of the Peninsula Hotel is very good, quite French aristocratic style, just like the aesthetics of the interior decoration of the Titanic, full of classical beauty...

"Mr. Walker, do you take a bath? I'll put water for you."

Russell sat on the sofa and crossed his legs, "How can I let the noble lady serve me?"

"Stop teasing me, I'm no longer a noble lady, and I'm not as weak as you think."

"I don't know who was lying on top of me crying bitterly, and the snot all over my body, and I lost a good suit for nothing."

"Ah! Mr. Walker, please stop talking, it's really hard to say."

Suddenly, Russell asked with a stern face: "Are you feeling better?"

Ruth's complexion changed, her body froze and she nodded slowly: "Yes, I'm much better. Mr. Walker, you don't have to worry about me, because this disaster has left me with no time to reflect on the pain of losing a loved one."

"My mother's departure seemed to be only sad at the time, and I didn't feel it after I woke up from sleep. Mr. Walker, am I very impersonal and selfish?"

Russell got up and walked over to hug her, stroked the back of her head and said, "People are selfish. If you are not selfish, you will be bullied. If you are selfish, you will not be able to give others a chance to anger you."

Ruth nodded half-understanding.

"I, I seem to understand a little bit, but not fully."

Snapped!

Russell raised his hand and patted her round buttocks.

"Then go and release the water, I will let you understand later!"

"Yes, it is!"

Ruth shuddered and ran to the bathroom to fill the bathtub.

Russell, on the other hand, stood at the window, smoking a cigarette, overlooking the Manhattan neighborhood.

There are four tasks in the copy of "Titanic", among which two tasks of "boarding the Titanic" and "surviving the disaster" have been completed.

The remaining tasks are 'Go to New York Blood Blade Enemy' and 'Live a good life with Ruth'.

"Sean Thompson, apparently the owner of the Taxidermy Museum, is actually the leader of the Irish Gang..."

Russell's style of doing things has always been vigorous and decisive, and he doesn't like to procrastinate.

On the Titanic, it is purely helpless to recruit nobles and celebrities to act as courtesans.

Therefore, he has to prepare for his arrival in New York, making friends with celebrities and nobles will make him start faster, so that he will not hit the iron wall with a white body, and he will not be caught blind.

What's more, war will break out in two years. At this moment, the overall strength of the United States is at the bottom of the world's second-rate, and it owes more than 80 billion US dollars in national debt.

But after the end of World War I, countries around the world owed the United States tens of billions of dollars, directly changing from a debtor country to a creditor country.

The strategy of the United States in World War I and World War II is very similar, one word 'gou'!

The United States did not enter the war until the end of World War I, and the same was true for World War II.

Gossip less, let's talk about the bathroom.

First came laughter and laughter, and then there were piercing screams.

"Are you okay? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Ruth accidentally fell on the floor while pouring water, shaking in pain.

But he shook his head again and again: "Mr. Walker, I'm fine, I can still persevere."

"I'll let Molly's maid buy some clothes later, you'll see they're all wet."

"Ok!"

After several days of wandering at sea, both of them were a little tired, so they hugged each other and fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Without Russell asking, Molly had already asked the maid to buy a change of clothes. They were all handmade high-end clothes, but they didn't have the reputation of French suits.

Ruth stayed out of bed, got up scared by Russell's raised slap, and hurriedly begged for mercy.

During the meal, Russell put the banknotes on the table.

"I'm going to go out for business later, you can go shopping with Molly, I promised her that I will give her back a high-end suit, because the suit I wore on the boat was a gift from Molly to her son, you know ?”

Ruth nodded timidly, and whispered: "Understood."

"You have to learn to communicate, understand?"

"Understood, Mr. Walker, I really understand! Look at my performance, okay?"

Ruth has such an expression, but because she was almost beaten when she just woke up, she was a little scared...
