On the blue sea, there was a giant steamship docked. The name of the sunken ship appeared in Lu Li and Yang Kai's minds at the same time:

Titanic.

It was billed as the largest cruise ship in the world at the time.

The ship in front of us is about 500 meters long and 60 meters wide, which is several times larger than the Titanic.

"This is truly spectacular."

Yang Kai sighed.

In contrast, Lu Li's statement was more rigorous, and he said reservedly: "In a sense, it is indeed quite spectacular, to be able to develop steam engines to this extent."

After all, he has even seen interstellar battleships. There is really no need to lament the exaggerated size, unless a qualifier is added in front:

Original steamship.

"Hurry up and get on the ship before you are caught by the Knights."

Lu Li withdrew his gaze and looked at Yang Kai.

All of a sudden, this guy broke away from the state of wonder and walked quickly to the boarding area, feeling highly nervous.

No matter what the reason, murderers must be imprisoned. If you miss this opportunity, you don't know when you will be able to board the ship to the other side of the ocean.

after an hour.

The whistle blows.

The noisy city pier, the farewell crowds, and the coastline gradually disappeared.

Lu Li leaned on the railing and looked out over the city where he had taken a brief rest. In fact, except for the guy next to him, he didn't seem to have made any friends -

There is only a simple working relationship with the forensic officer and the three warriors.

As for the beautiful female warrior, not to mention, in the other person's heart, she was an out-and-out blasphemer and devil.

"Damn, it's finally safe. If I were caught, I would definitely be one of the worst time travellers."

Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief.

Not long ago, he shot and killed the young man with five tattoos on his hand, and then quickly packed a carriage and headed to the dock.

"Senior, wouldn't that kind of behavior be too harsh on a good person?"

The voice of inquiry came out, vaguely hesitant.

"It doesn't matter. I just killed a scumbag casually."

In fact, Lu Li didn't have any special feelings about this. He didn't care whether he was having a wild night last night, fighting with two wandering warblers in the street or alley, or shooting someone for a woman he didn't know well this morning.

"But...it violated the law after all."

Yang Kai seemed to be struggling with something, and kept chattering: "And the timing is not good. Once discovered and miss the opportunity to board the ship, it is very likely that I will say goodbye to the University of Michigan forever. This is my only chance to turn around. "

"So, you want me to scold you?"

Lu Li felt helpless, "I'm sorry, I don't have that much time. Besides, I just killed a scumbag. It's really not like this."

The two are never on the same page.

Although Lu Li knew what was going on in his heart, he didn't want to explain anything.

In a few days, Yang Kai will be able to figure it out on his own, because past experience has proven:

Never think of people as that fragile.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

After a while, Lu Li turned around and left the deck. He felt that the little brother needed to be alone.

By the way, when was the first time I experienced real killing?

Lu Li thought seriously.

It seemed like it was my first monthly exam, and I was executing the market garden plan. I was in a small town in the Netherlands at night. I didn't have the time or energy to be pretentious at that time. I was caught up in the war, and I quickly achieved a kill streak.

Later, the killing became easier and easier, and the species became more and more diverse: resurrected corpses, blood ancestors, followers of evil gods, aliens, monsters...

at night.

Well-dressed gentlemen, well-dressed ladies, and dignitaries gathered together to talk loudly, winning bursts of applause from the women beside them.

The waiters bowed and held exquisite and sumptuous food, and busily shuttled around the ship, so that guests in all classes could enjoy meticulous service.

Everything is so luxurious and reminiscent of the Titanic.

However, a middle-aged man with broad shoulders and a fat body at the table, Mr. Yin Simei, chairman of White Star Company, vowed to tell everyone:

The Titan symbolizes strength, solidity, and unsinkability. It has successfully traveled to and from the old and new continents five times before.

Looking at the man who gave an exciting speech, Yang Kai seemed to see an old general on the stage, with flags all over his body.

“There’s always a sense that something unexpected will happen.”

At this moment, he was no longer obsessed with the morning murder. Instead, his attention was successfully diverted to worry about the safety of this trip.

"Don't worry, I specifically inquired about the waterway. We are driving south and we won't pass any glaciers."

"If an accident does occur, it will not happen again like the Titanic."

Lu Li did not ask specifically about the height from the waterline to the deck, the registered tonnage, or the displacement.

But he inquired about the waterway and prepared for the worst—the ship encountered an accident midway and found a way to cross the ocean on his own.

"..."

Yang Kai secretly complained in his heart: Is this the confidence that being able to be infinitely resurrected brings?

"Forget it, I'll go to the deck to investigate and see how many traffic boats there are."

"No need to bother. There are forty-eight ships in total. The captain did not make any compromises in this regard. He can barely take all the passengers away."

Lu Li was like a butler, accurately reporting the relevant data and speaking out to dispel Yang Kai's concerns.

In fact, this giant ship is indeed very similar to the Titanic to a certain extent. It has eight tall chimneys, but only seven are actually put into use. The remaining one is just used as a foil and decoration. , the actual purpose is the chimney and exhaust in the dining and kitchen area.

In addition, giant wheels not only pursue speed and sturdiness, but also value luxury and refinement.

After some investigation, Lu Li determined that the ship was equipped with at least four swimming pools, several gyms, bathrooms, libraries, and multiple indoor play areas.

Like the first-class cabin where the two of them stayed, the common room was decorated with fine wooden paneling. The room was equipped with a separate bathroom and a washroom. Everywhere you saw was filled with high-end furniture, and all imaginable service levels were provided.

Well...the housekeeper and waiters are beautiful.

According to them, the chef will also provide various dishes individually according to the guests' preferences.

Of course, the living environment and related supporting facilities in second- and third-class cabins are equally high-end, no less than the first-class rooms in many hotels on land.

"Full speed ahead!"

On the deck, the white-bearded captain held black tea in his hand and watched the giant ship sailing through the wind and waves, feeling indescribably proud.

This is a dream cruise to the New World, with all the noble pleasures you need. Being its captain, you will have no regrets in this life.

However, considering the length of the voyage and past experience, caution should be exercised.

Thinking of this, Whitebeard stood up slightly, turned around and asked the young assistant beside him: "Are all the security personnel in place?"

"That's right, I confirmed it twice before leaving the port. Captain, you don't have to worry at all. No matter what dangerous storms we encounter, those warriors who believe in storms can handle it calmly."

"Ah That's good."
