“Not me, I don’t want to see the ship sink because it hits an iceberg.”

“Could it be that the ship sinking in some other way is what you would like to see…” Liu Bufan said in his heart, he intuited that the other party had something to say, but it was not good to ask more.

Xiao Lizi and others not far away saw Liu Bufan talking to two strangers, thinking that Liu Bufan had met new friends, and they also wanted to get acquainted, so they walked over together.

The two tall young men saw that outsiders were coming, exchanged a look, and turned to leave.

“Hey, it’s two Germans, I don’t like Germans.” Tommy recognized the identity of the other party and asked Liu Bufan, “What are you talking about?” ”

“Out of nowhere, they heard my prophecy and became interested.” Liu Bufan then casually asked Tommy, “Why don’t you like Germans?” ”

“When I worked at the Northern Ireland shipyard, there was always a frenzy of building warships. The government placed a large number of orders, supposedly to prevent Kaiser Wilhelm II from provoking war in Europe and expanding his armaments. Having built so many warships, sooner or later it will have to go to war with Germany, and the Germans are enemies of our British Empire. ”

“Hard to say.” Liu Bufan shook his head, “Although Britain, France and Germany are all engaged in an arms race, they are currently roughly in balance with each other. Moreover, the Kaiser and the Kaiser are cousins, and everything can be negotiated internally, and it may not be the step of getting into war. It’s just that the outbreak of war is accidental, and I am afraid that there will suddenly be a fuse event that is not controlled by Britain and Germany, and then break the balance, such as the unstable Balkan region may be a powder keg, once detonated, the war between Britain and Germany becomes inevitable. ”

“Hey, Willow, you’re not easy to see.” Xiao Lizi said with a smile.

Liu Bufan also smiled, looked at the calm Atlantic sea, remembered the mystery of the sinking of the Titanic in history, and seemed to have some understanding: “Tell me, if someone sinks the Titanic, will it become another trigger event for the war between Britain and the United States and Germany?” ”

Fabry was taken aback: “Willow, why do you say that?” ”

Xiao Lizi’s head reacted quickly: “Did those two Germans tell you something just now?” ”

“Yes.” Liu Bufan nodded, “They say that someone wants the Titanic to sink in the Atlantic, and I feel that something is strange.” ”

“I think Germany wants to sink the Titanic as a fuse event and trigger a world war.” Tommy exclaimed excitedly, “Those two German boys are agents who came to carry out the mission, believe me, I have seen many intelligence officers stationed in the Northern Ireland shipyard, and I am more embarrassed by such specially trained people, and I will not look away.” ”

“Tommy, you dare to say this…” Fabry laughed, disbelieving, “Will sinking the Titanic cause a world war?” ”

“Do you think the Titanic is full of dispensable little people like you and me.” Tommy pointed to the first class, “See no, there are many big capitalists there, if they all die in the Atlantic Ocean to feed fish, it will definitely make a sensation in the world, it is strange if there is no war, we are all waiting to be cannon fodder.” ”

Xiao Lizi said: “It is indeed a big thing to die so many big capitalists at once. War is closely related to the interests of big capitalists, so war is possible, but I don’t think Germany will openly provoke a world war in this way. ”

“Jack has a point, Germany will not be stupid enough to be targeted, even if it wants to provoke a war, it is impossible to use such a completely immorally stupid way.” Liu Bufan agreed with Xiao Lizi’s opinion, thought about it, and said, “But these two mysterious Germans must have hidden secrets, and the next time we meet, let’s be careful.” ”

Another day passed quickly, and on the 14th, the Titanic entered the cold current waters that flowed from north to south.

At 9 a.m., the Titanic received an iceberg warning telegram from the British cruise ship Caronia: “The ship heading west has been notified that there is an iceberg in the sea at 42 degrees north latitude and 51 degrees west longitude.” ”

At 11 a.m., the Dutch cruise ship Nordan, which was in the same sea, sent a report to the Titanic that a large amount of ice had been found in the area.

At 1 p.m., the Baltic Sea issued an iceberg warning, and a large number of ice floes were haunted 250 miles from the Titanic.

The Titanic received three consecutive radio iceberg warnings from nearby ships, which caught the attention of Captain Smith.

Captain Smith knew that although the boss Ismay boarded the ship as a passenger, he was keen to listen to the government, playing the role of the real captain behind the scenes, and instructing him his ideas at any time, and he wrote a note to inform Ismay in time.

“Was it really said by that third-class Chinese passenger who was called?”

Ismay chuckled in his heart, ordered his attendants to call Captain Smith to his room, pointed to the note and asked, “Is it normal to receive iceberg alerts continuously?” ”

“Yes, March to July is iceberg season, and icebergs from the polar regions and Greenland float over the Atlantic Cold Current.” Captain Smith answered matter-of-factly, “This season, it is very normal to receive an iceberg warning in the waters near Newfoundland’s Grand Banks, and it is not normal if there is no warning.” Just now, the telegraph operator received another iceberg warning from the German cruise ship Americana. This is the fourth warning. I think I will continue to receive radio warnings in the future. ”

“You’re an experienced navigator, I think you’ll handle it all.” Sime made up his mind and said, “But it’s best not to reveal the iceberg news to the outside world, so as not to cause unnecessary panic… This is all a prophecy made by the third-class passenger. ”

After the first-class dinner on the 12th, the prediction that the Titanic will hit an iceberg spread throughout the social circles of the rich. Most wealthy people believe that the Titanic is an unsinkable ship and scoff at the prophecy of an inferior person who lacks knowledge and education, but a few rich ladies are very uneasy.

Don’t be the countess, specifically find him and ask him to pay attention to the iceberg threat.

Because of this incident, Ismay, Andrews, and Smith did not bother to appease the Countess and the other ladies, and if at this time the news came that the actual situation was partially in line with the prophecy, I was afraid that the Countess and the small number of ladies would be moved.

Rich and powerful women are the most headache…
