Chapter 533 (1/2)

The sun was dazzling. Su Huilan covered her forehead with her hand and looked up to see petru bend down and shout at them, but his eyes only looked at Mrs. Larry.

Then there was a thumping sound in the channel of the freeboard deck, and then Boris's loud voice: ”Hey, petru, we need help!”

”Coming!” petru hurried over.

Suhuilan smiled and said to Mrs. Larry, ”madam, this guy really cares about you.”

”He's not bad,” said Mrs. Larry.

Alice thought for a while, and finally couldn't help saying, ”madam, that Red Beard said he would marry you.”

”Don't talk nonsense,” said the lady.

”It's true, he told me himself,” said Alice. ”He said you were the most respectable woman he had ever seen. He fell in love with you from the first day he saw you.”

Mrs. Larry's face was still her usual serious expression, and she couldn't see any change, but suhuilan keenly felt that there was an unusual light in her eyes, like lightning in the depths of clouds.

After many days together, Su Huilan learned more about Mrs. Larry. This serious female scientist is not difficult to get along with. She has a kind heart and a noble soul, but I don't know why. She always puts on a straight face and shows people with an inaccessible face, which is by no means her true nature. Suhuilan always felt that there was a secret in Mrs. Larry's heart, so she put on a disguise and didn't show her true face. Judging from her reluctance to mention her husband, Mr. yeg, there may be some sad past! But suhuilan thinks it's not that simple.

Alice carefully observed the change of madam's face for a while, and then said carefully: ”madam, I also think petru is not bad. Although he is a pirate, he is forced to be helpless, isn't he? He also said he would like to be your attendant and accompany you to archaeology everywhere! I think... Yeah... Mr. Yeager... It's been... So long, you can think about it...”

A loud bang interrupted Alice's words. A hatch panel under the freeboard was pushed open, fell directly and fell into the lake. A folded gangway was pushed out.

The ship's gangway is automatically controlled by the retractor, but now there is no energy on the ship, the circuit is blocked, and the pneumatic device will naturally fail, and the gangway will be locked. After so many years, even if the manual device and connecting shaft can be used, I'm afraid it's not easy to open it.

However, I don't know how Ivan did it. They not only pushed out the gangway, but also folded and opened the third floor. Ivan climbed outside the cabin and pulled the hinge of the gangway. Boris and petru checked the connection of the two twist locks for fear that the twist locks would break. Ivan's foot stepped on the open gangway with force. The gangway that had been pushed out of the cabin door and crossed was flattened. The lower end fell down and was pulled by the hinge lock. It became a ladder leaning against the side of the ship and parallel to the ship with an inclined upward elevation of 40 °.

”Petru, try to use the manual runner of the radio and player. You need to adjust the height,” Ivan said as he climbed back to the freeboard passage along the winch.

Petru got in, and soon there was a creaking sound, and then the gangway was lowered to the surface of the water bit by bit.

Anderson rowed the boat to the side of the gangway. Su Huilan stood up first. She tried. She felt no problem. She stretched out her hand and said, ”you can come up, madam.”

She and Mrs. Larry went first, Anderson and Alice followed, and the party went on deck.

Aoki and situ were still on the deck, holding the railing on the side of the ship and looking to the lake bank in the distance. They were doing the same thing, giving instructions to the savages on the shore to bring torches.
