chapter 2 Escape from death

by Vivian 17:05,Dec 08,2023


After about half an hour, the wind and rain gradually became lighter, and the rumbling thunder and lightning gradually faded away.

I felt as if the rolling waves were pushing the lifeboat farther away.

I sat up and looked around blankly.

Just behind us, I could still see the burning sea and the black smoke billowing into the sky.

The sound of sobbing came, and I turned my head to look. The little girl lying opposite me couldn't help crying.

She was wearing a light pink striped coat with a white short-sleeved shirt underneath, her slender thighs were tightly wrapped by jeans, and she was wearing a pair of light blue flat shoes.

Compared with me, who has been working hard in society for four years after graduating from college, she should not be very old.

The other three people sat up one after another. The indifferent woman lay beside the lifeboat and glanced back, "It's safe for now."

I secretly glanced at this woman. She was wearing a red floral skirt, and the silk straps of her sandals had been loosened.

Her facial features are very delicate, with a thin face and prominent collarbone, which makes people feel a little difficult to deal with.

The woman turned around, her eyes flickering, staring ahead, as if she was thinking about something.

I withdrew my gaze and looked at the little girl who was still crying, feeling a slight movement of compassion.

At this moment, the woman sitting behind her came up and patted her back, comforting her softly: "It's okay, don't cry."

This woman is wearing a black professional OL outfit, her hair is scattered on her shoulders, she has bright eyes, a tall nose, and delicate lips. If you look closely at the whole thing, you will find her stunning. She has a plump and sexy figure, walking in the Among the crowd, it will definitely attract the attention of most men.

The little girl sat up and turned around and threw herself into the sexy woman's arms. She cried harder and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.

The sexy woman was infected by the little girl's emotions. Tears spun in her eyes and fell down.

The indifferent woman leaned on the lifeboat and looked at the two people hugging and crying with a calm face.

I glanced around me and saw that the woman I rescued was hugging her knees and staring blankly below her, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock just now.

In the lifeboat, no one spoke, and the two of them stopped crying when they were tired of crying.

The two people's emotions gradually stabilized. They sat separately with their heads lowered, each wiping tears from the corners of their eyes.

The silent atmosphere lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and the indifferent woman said: "I am honored to escape with you all."

A very official answer. I glanced at the indifferent woman and began to guess her identity.

The indifferent woman continued to introduce herself: "I am Tarala, the CEO of Xinyuan High-tech Group."

The sexy woman took a deep breath and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "My name is Deborah, the manager of the cruise restaurant."

The little girl said very politely with her eyes red from crying: "Hello, brothers and sisters, my Saahira, and I am a freshman at Binhai Normal University."

The woman I rescued came back to her senses somewhat dullly, "Chimere."

I glanced at Chimere secretly, feeling a little dazed.

To be honest, in twenty-seven years of my life, this is the first time I have seen such a fresh and refined person.

Tarala coughed dryly, and Chimere glanced at me sideways. I immediately withdrew my gaze and looked at Tarala.

She crossed her arms, looked at me and asked, "What is your name, and what did you do before?"

I looked at her and said coldly: "Why should I tell you?"

Tarala said: "Are you resenting me for not saving you just now?"

I looked at her and asked, "Yes, if it weren't for Chimere, I would be a cold corpse now!"

Tarala said: "The supplies on the lifeboat are limited. I don't know how long I will be drifting on the sea. I definitely don't want one more person on the lifeboat."

I asked: "In that case, why did you pull Chimere into the lifeboat?"

Tarala said: "First of all, saving her is worthy of conscience. Secondly, she is a woman who poses no threat, and you are a man."

Chimere defended me and said: "On the cruise ship, everyone was running for their lives, but he saved me."

Tarala looked at me and said, "Maybe he saved you because you are good-looking."

Chimere lowered her head and said nothing, while Saahira cast a suspicious and frightened look at me.

Deborah said: "Okay, we are all fallen people in the world. We must trust each other and get through difficult times together."

I took a deep breath and said: "Einstein, my main job is the owner of an art store. As a side job, I have worked as a courier, delivered takeout, and rented a car. I like to wander around in my free time."

Tarala said: "Okay, everyone has gotten to know each other. Let's discuss what to do next."

Deborah reached out and opened a hidden side door of the lifeboat, and then she took out two backpacks.

She took out everything in her backpack, which was filled with sea survival supplies.

I took inventory and found that there were only 150 liters of fresh water to drink and only 15 compressed biscuits to eat.

The remaining life-saving items include 1 life-saving manual, 1 compass, 5 thermal bags, 5 survival suits, 1 medicine box, 2 orange smoke bombs, 1 waterproof flashlight, 6 hand-held flame signals, and 2 buckets , 1 water ladle, 2 measuring cups, one large and one small, 1 national flag, 2 peace axes, 1 fishing tool box, 1 whistle, a box of windproof matches, a rain collector, 1 sailor's knife, 2 discs of nylon rope.
