Ruth’s deep eyes had a thick melancholy and loveless determination, which made Liu Bufan come back to his senses in time and be more determined to save such a rare beauty.

Ruth, I’m going to be friends with you….

“You won’t jump, do you know how cold the sea is? There are icebergs on the Titanic route, and the sea water is a mixture of ice and water, close to zero degrees Celsius…”

Liu Bufan kept attracting Ruth’s attention all the time, and tried to describe the pain of jumping into the sea, which made Ruth hesitate to jump into the sea.

Ruth is a 17-year-old girl who has not experienced the hardships of life, a flower in a greenhouse, and will hold back in the face of pain.

Ruth was worried about how she felt before drowning, and Liu Bufan said this hesitation in her heart, but the clever Ruth understood Liu Bufan’s intentions and interrupted Liu Bufan irritably.

“Are you distracting me, go away, leave me alone.”

Ruth defended her determination to throw herself into the sea, and with one hand she tried to loosen the railing, her body suddenly lost her balance and faltered.

Liu Bufan’s heart pounded, really worried that Ruth would accidentally fall into the sea.

But Liu Bufan also noticed that the moment Ruth released the railing with one hand, her face suddenly turned snow-white, and her hand quickly grabbed the railing again to stabilize her body, and her eyes looked at the sea below in horror.

This small detail, combined with Ruth’s behavior of not jumping over the railing, but standing on the steel rim on the outer edge of the ship and looking at the dark water below, Liu Bufan judged that Ruth was obviously afraid.

It is not the fear of death, but the fear of the sea, the pain that the body endures before death.

Liu Bufan decides to focus Ruth’s attention on this pain, which makes Ruth hesitate and eventually give up the idea of suicide.

Liu Bufan didn’t walk away and continued: “Have you ever played ice fishing in winter? ”

“What?” Ruth didn’t understand why Liu Bufan asked her an inexplicable question, and couldn’t help but be curious, expecting Liu Bufan to explain it clearly.

“The winter is very cold, when I was a child, I followed my father to fish on the ice on the lake, accidentally stepped on thin ice, and fell into the water…”

“Ah, God…” exclaimed Ruth, quickly asking, “How is it in the water?” ”

“You know, the lake is as cold as the sea under the boat, and I feel like I have been pierced by thousands of sharp blades at the same time. I wanted to struggle out of the ice, but the cold ice water froze my muscles, and I really endured every pain…”

“Ahhhhhh

Ruth was frightened, but she was lucky, as if to cheer herself up, “There is no trace of icebergs in this sea, and the sea water below is not a mixture of ice and water, and it is not as cold as the lake in winter.” ”

“That’s not much different.” Liu Bufan deepened Ruth’s fear of jumping into the sea, “Moreover, the sea below has a more terrifying place than the lake. ”

“What is it?”

“There are three huge propellers in the stern of the Titanic, stirring the sea water to produce a powerful vortex, and people fall into the sea water at the stern, they will be swept into the vortex, and the rapidly rotating propellers will make the human body…”

This is not Liu Bufan’s words, when the Britannic, another giant ship of the White Star Company, was sunk by a German submarine in World War I, two lifeboats and more than 70 people were sucked into it by propellers and stirred into wooden meat puree.

“Don’t say it.”

Ruth was even more afraid, she stared down at the sea, and then looked back at Liu Bufan, showing a little hesitation.

But her hesitation only lasted for a short while, and she put her upper body forward again, and hun round and swollen Xiong Chu Song, making a posture to jump into the sea at any time.

Liu Bufan was anxious, and he couldn’t delay any longer to give Ruth time to firmly kill herself.

Liu Bufan just wanted to take a few steps closer, Ruth was very alert, and immediately issued a warning: “You go away, I will let go.” ”

“I know you don’t want to jump…”

“No, I will jump.” Ruth said stubbornly, “I don’t want to go back and see them.” ”

“Who are they?” Liu Bufan asked, “Is it more terrifying than the cold seawater and the propeller that can shatter the human body?” ”

It couldn’t dispel Ruth’s idea of suicide all of a sudden, and trying to talk to Ruth to delay time was also a way.

Ruth’s fiancé and mother find out that Ruth has not returned to the restaurant for a long time, and they will definitely look around, sooner or later they will find the stern of the boat, and they will arrive in time, maybe it can be said that Ruth gave up suicide.

“They are…”

Who “they” were, Ruth found herself unclear.

Is it Carl?

Carl is her fiancé screened out by her mother, dignified, rich, with outstanding upbringing, deeply in love with her, trying to please her, caring for her, everyone says that Carl and her are golden children, a match made in heaven, this time back to the United States will hold a grand engagement ceremony in Philadelphia, for such a husband, most girls are too late to compete, what else does she have to fault.

Is it a mother?

After her father’s death, her mother depended on her and devoted herself to her, and in order to facilitate her marriage with the wealthy heir Carl, her mother rushed forward and then spent a lot of effort.

“They” are not one or two specific people, but rather a vain and selfish social class, a rigid and self-styled circle of life, and everything in her life is like a woven cage that imprisons her pursuit of a free life.

Thinking of this, Ruth felt guilty but not happy, but disgusted.

Ruth murmured for a while, but her relatives still couldn’t find the stern.

Liu Bufan can’t shout people, as soon as he shouts, Ruth Qing’s mind changes, and she is likely to jump into the sea.

Looking at Ruth’s increasingly determined expression, it was too late to act.

Liu Bufan had to resort to remedial measures.

“In this way, I will go to the sea first to test the water temperature for you.”

Liu Bufan, in line with the “bodhisattva heart” of “I go to hell”, creates a living miserable situation of freezing in cold water to dispel Ruth’s obsession with jumping into the sea to kill herself.

“Madman.” Ruth turned her head, “You’re going to drown.” ”

“I can swim.”

“Then you will fall and hurt if you jump.”

“Jumping off is not a fall, but a broken bone, and the whole body is in pain.”

The height of the Titanic design waterline to the aft deck is 60 feet, that is, 18 meters to 20 meters, Olympic divers use professional movements, the highest diving platform is 10 meters, ordinary people jump to the water below 20 meters must be enough.

Liu Bufan pointed to the cable road that had long been prepared at the stern, “Look, there is a cable tied to the base of the flagpole, and I slide down the cable.” ”

“You will freeze, you will be swept into the propeller by the vortex.” Ruth in turn stopped Liu Bufan with the pain of jumping into the sea listed by Liu Bufan, she did not want to see a stranger who had never known her risk any life for her, “My business has nothing to do with you, you don’t need to do this.” ”

“Why do I want to take risks with my life, this is all fate…” Liu Bufan smiled bitterly in his heart.

“Everything is providence, everything is fate, no one can escape…”
