Although the shaking of the chain is getting smaller, the situation has not improved.
With a terrifying friction sound, the entire chain suddenly sank half a meter downwards. The iron pin fixed at the boarding port was about to break completely. Several crew members anxiously stuck their heads out of the boarding port to ask everyone to hold on. Stay - they are already thinking of rescue methods!
At the critical moment, several young people decided to give it a try. They loosened the ropes one after another and jumped into the deep blue water. After a few splashes, they surfaced one after another and took a big breath. The people on the dock immediately found sticks or ropes. Together they pulled them ashore.
"Jump!!" The man who came ashore waved to his companions, "It's okay!!"
During the hesitation, two more young people released the chains one after another. However, this time I was not so lucky. The sudden wind suddenly disturbed the chains that were hanging with people. The person who jumped back hit the stone wall at the edge of the pier. Everyone heard a dull impact and then watched helplessly. He bounced into the water - directly hitting another person who had just emerged from the water.
Several crew members on the ground jumped into the sea to save people and quickly brought two young people ashore. One of them broke his neck and died on the spot. They were trying their best to rescue the other.
The few people who had safely landed ashore were stunned, their faces turned pale for a moment, and they could not say anything.
Si Lei from above looked worried: "Don't act rashly!"
However, this point no longer needs to be emphasized. The only dozen or so people left on the chain all clenched their hands tighter in unison.
In the distance, a crane truck was coming here, but it soon had to stop halfway because the road collapsed. People on the shore spontaneously took off their coats and spread them on the edge of the pier - but this level of obstruction could not provide an effective buffer at all. It served no purpose except to comfort the people on the shore.
Si Lei has called Qianye and Turan countless times, but everything is just like what happened before, and the two people's calls have become unreachable.
She slammed the railing hard, "Where are Avinash's gang? Where have they gone!?"
Hesta looked down silently, perhaps because her previous emotions had fluctuated violently, but now she felt nothing except tiredness.
"I can't hold it anymore..." Hesta said suddenly.
"What?"
Hesta pointed in the direction of the temporary boarding port: "That iron pin is going to break."
Si Lei followed Hesta's hand and his heart suddenly sank——
With a slight crack, what everyone was most worried about finally happened. Some people who had been looking up at the boarding port also captured this moment. Fear and shock instantly distorted their expressions. They closed their eyes and turned their heads. , can’t bear to look at it anymore.
But the expected sound of falling did not sound.
The people on the chain felt a moment of stagnation, like the overweight feeling when the elevator stopped suddenly - the fall stopped.
They all looked up, the sky was so bright, not to mention that most of them had closed their eyes just now, so they felt the bright light was even more dazzling. Under this burst of almost unbearable sunshine, they saw a man wearing a dark green work shirt. The woman appeared above them at some point.
For a moment, no one could see the woman's face clearly, only her shoulder-length silver hair hanging in the air.
She held an orange main lock in her left hand, firmly clasping one end of the chain, and raised her right hand high. Two black nylon ropes shot out from her sleeves, shooting straight into the sky like living creatures.
Hesta took a step to the side, and two nylon ropes happened to wrap around the fence in front of her.
Si Lei immediately shouted, "It's a mercury needle!"
The crowd burst into cheers, and everyone saw the silver-haired woman quickly fixing the position of the main lock and the suspension rope, and immediately began to save people - she picked up everyone by their collars and threw them into the boarding ship one by one. entrance corridor.
The white hull reflects her body, which is as light as a snow leopard.
"Who is that person..." Si Lei's mood at this moment was the same as that of the people on the ground. She turned her head and looked at Hesta, "Do you recognize him?"
Hesta was still lying on the fence, her eyes following the figure spinning in the air.
"...It's Rico," she said softly, "...he's my friend."
Si Lei's eyes lit up: "It turns out she is Li Ge——"
"Si Lei... police officer?"
Si Lei pulled away from her excitement for a moment, and she turned around - Anna was sitting in a wheelchair, smiling at her.
"Can you come over here?"
"Just call me by my name," Si Lei walked quickly to Anna's side, "What's wrong?"
"I have a suggestion, maybe you'd like to hear it?"
"certainly."
Anna raised her hand and held a pair of anvil scissors in her hand. She held the tip of the scissors and handed the handle to Si Lei.
"...scissors?" Si Lei took it, "Do you always carry it with you?"
"No, Zero just picked it up on the deck in front."
"Oh." Si Lei nodded, "Do you want me to help you transfer it to the staff here?"
"No."
Si Lei looked into Anna's eyes, and from these calm eyes, she faintly felt something unusual.
"Then you want to..."
"Excuse me, go cut the nylon rope over there."
Si Lei looked back at the nylon rope on the fence - it was tied by Rico in a critical moment, and it was now closely connected to the chains in the hands of the hanging people.
Si Lei laughed, "...what?"
Anna's body leaned forward slightly, and her eyes were closer to Si Lei: "Go and cut the nylon rope over there."
Si Lei looked at Hesta, then at Zero, and finally his eyes returned to Anna, and the smile gradually disappeared from her face.
"...Excuse me, what did you say?"
"Cut the nylon rope over there." Anna said warmly, "If these people could all fall into the sea now, I guess they would also refuse to board the ship, and then our next journey would be cleaner."
Si Lei stood there and looked at Anna in disbelief - just a few dozen minutes ago, she was full of gratitude for the unexpected encounter today.
"There is no surveillance here, you can rest assured about this," Anna still looked at her, "Among the few of us, you are the most suitable person to do this. This is my proposal, so I will not report you, so Neither will Zero...I believe the same is true for Jane."
After saying that, Anna looked sideways at Hesta, "Can you?"
Hesta also didn't understand what Anna wanted to do, but when she heard the question, she still shook her head.
"This is not a matter of reporting or not -"
"Then there are no other problems," Anna whispered. "This pair of scissors does not belong to any of us. I will let Zero dispose of it later - including this broken rope. No one will be around. Find them afterwards...
"Let's do it."
