Chapter 330

Church's Diary

Mr. stone finally woke up. He is very weak, as if he were seriously ill. The doctor advised him to continue infusion, but he said no. he just asked us for some nutritious porridge.

Ivan and Boris have almost recovered, especially Boris. He had a good conversation with Anderson and often helped him repair the boat.

Not to mention, Boris and Ivan knew very well about the ship's equipment, and many problems were repaired in their hands. Anderson secretly told me that these two men must have served in the army and on the best warships or submarines.

From their behavior and Boris's casual words, I had realized that they were probably military, but they were not as accurate as Anderson's inference.

If our guess is not bad, it is understandable that they are unwilling to talk about the cause of their accident. But this thought makes me a little worried. Is the tsunami we encountered and the previous strange things really related to the military action? And they are soldiers who almost died in military operations?

In the South Pacific, only the United States can make such a big move in theory. New Zealand does not have this strength, and Australia will not conduct military experiments so far away from home, and this is the sphere of American influence. But why are there two Russian soldiers in the military action of the United States? Besides, there is an Asian lying there!

The more I think about it, the more I feel confused and incredible. There is a strong smell of conspiracy lingering in front of my nose. I even smell some great unknown danger.

You'd better leave quickly and go back to land.

However, before we adjusted our course, we confirmed another terrible thing.

The cause was a watch Boris had on his wrist.

At that time, he was blowing on the deck with Anderson and blowing all kinds of cattle. I deliberately asked Anderson to talk to him more so that I could get some news from him.

Boris asked Anderson, how many Christmases do you think I spent at sea?

Anderson laughed and said that the first few are not important. Christmas is still early. It's only August now. If you're still on the ship four months later, let's talk about it again.

Boris looked at Anderson in surprise, then raised his wrist, patted his watch and said, are you crazy, Anderson? Tomorrow is Christmas, tomorrow, okay! Are you stupid to drink sea water? You say it's only August!

Anderson grabbed his wrist, stared at his watch, and then looked at his wrist. From a distance, I saw the frozen expression of surprise on Anderson's face.

Then Anderson ran nervously, grabbed my wrist and looked at my watch. I said what's the matter, Anderson? Anderson said you go and look at that guy's watch. The date on his watch is December 24th.

I said how is it possible? But I asked Boris, who was walking slowly. He said yes. Today is Christmas Eve. Should we relax together?

Scientists' various advanced electronic watches were broken in the tsunami and electromagnetic pulse disaster, but most of my sailors wear waterproof mechanical watches. The calendar on our watch shows that we are still in August. There is a paper calendar in my captain's room. I tear one every day. And I have the habit of keeping a diary. I believe I won't make a mistake.

However, Boris and Ivan's watches show that it is December and tomorrow is Christmas. They both vowed that the date would never be wrong.

I don't think they have any reason to cheat us, and they can't plan to adjust the dates of their watches at the same time. Most importantly, the sun in the sky and the temperature at sea will not deceive people. Although the ocean is not as different from the land in four seasons, the difference between winter and summer is still obvious.

Robbins was silent when he heard the news. He made such a guess a few days ago, but no one wants to believe it. First he went to pardik's room, where he was recovering, closed the door, and the two talked for a long time in the room. Then he called Mrs. Larry again.

I don't know what they're talking about and why it's so mysterious, but I think it must be related to the matter of crossing time, because pardik is an expert in space physics. If anyone on the ship can make it clear, it's probably only him.

Moreover, pardik was seriously injured and the medical conditions on board were limited. Especially after many equipment broke down, he could only rely on original means to help him recover from his broken bone. Fortunately, his concussion was not serious. Such a serious injury should not disturb him. Mr. Robbins must feel that the situation is a little serious, or think of something else that must be asked about pardik.

But God, what is it? Why are they so mysterious?

Later, he and Mrs. Larry came out of pardik's room. I thought they were going to announce something, but they didn't. They went to Arthur stone's room together. But this time they probably didn't think they should avoid me, so they greeted me, said they wanted to confirm something with Mr. stone and asked me to go with them.

Ivan and Boris seemed worried about us and followed us nervously. Neither Robbins nor Mrs. Larry stopped it. In this way, other people who wanted to go followed. Alice followed Mrs. Larry, and several other scientists followed us.

But then I knew why Robbins and Mrs. Larry didn't stop others from going together, because it was useless to go to more people. After Mrs. Larry went in, she began to talk to Mr. stone with incredible proficiency in Chinese. The others couldn't understand what they were saying.

In my many years of navigation career, I have come into contact with many sailors of different nationalities, including, of course, Chinese. So I learned more or less Chinese and could say some common words such as "Hello, have you eaten, goodbye, fuck", but I really couldn't react at all when you asked me to listen to the conversation between two Chinese people.

I heard Mrs. Larry speak Chinese like singing. The only thing I could understand was her name stone, although the syllable became a little strange and sounded like "situ".

Mr. situ's face is always filled with a warm smile. Although his smile may be lazy due to physical reasons, it has a power deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. You can see that he is as comfortable as bathing in the spring breeze. I saw a light in Alice's eyes, although I was sure she couldn't understand a word.

The conversation did not last long, and stone seemed unable to hold on, although he remained elegant, almost forgetting that he was a patient.

Mrs. Larry stopped the conversation and everyone except Ivan and Boris withdrew from stone's room. I saw the faces of Mrs. Larry and Robbins changing. I didn't know what had happened.

I think it must be very serious. Mr. Robbins didn't explain anything to me. He just asked to move forward at full speed and find land as soon as possible.
