Returning from the low-magic world, do artificial intelligence first.

Chapter 384
VHF radio station is a very high frequency radio transmission tool and an important tool that all ships must have.

Because VHF radio waves can only be transmitted in a straight line, it is usually a distance of tens of kilometers to a hundred kilometers on the sea, and it is often a platform for some ships to communicate with each other.

The VHF16 channel can be regarded as a public channel on the sea, and it is also a channel that can send distress messages and receive some notifications. According to the requirements, this channel must be watched by someone.

Just when they were about to go to the well-known coral group in front, they heard the distress signal in the channel, which really made people a little stunned and slightly unlucky.

It's just that at sea, as long as a distress signal is received, rescue is required. This is a criterion accepted by normal sailors.

If it is offshore, there will be a nearby search and rescue center for command and temporary dispatch. If you refuse to obey, you will even be punished accordingly.

But at a time like this, it all depends on conscience. Obviously, the old captain is still a decent person, and he didn't give in at all because there were some second-generation sons on board.

"Uncle Huang, didn't they use the satellite signal to call for help?"

Zhou Wenjing got up from the sun chair helplessly, walked towards the cab, and asked the old captain.

In addition to the VHF radio channel, ships at sea will naturally have satellite signals related to positioning and distress, as well as satellite phones and so on.

Several other people also came over one after another.

"The satellite communication signal can't be contacted. I just checked it. Our satellite communication signal is not connected, but the positioning system still has some signals. The AIS automatic ship identification system can roughly determine the other party's position."

On the surface of the sea, occasional loss of satellite communication signals occurs from time to time, and various factors may affect it.

However, both ships lost contact at the same time, which was a bit surprising.

"It's not far from us, about forty nautical miles."

"Okay, there is nothing we can do for those in distress. Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Let's take them to the port in Indonesia and put them down."

Qin Xiang finally made a decision.

These rich second generations are unscrupulous, but they are not the kind of characters who disregard human life.

Even this kind of thing might be a hot search, Qin Dashao still likes this kind of feeling.

"Uncle Huang, come here according to the rules. Are there other ships nearby? What's the matter with that ship? It's not completely dark yet, and there's nothing unusual about the weather. What kind of ship is it?"

Zhou Wenjing also signaled the captain to follow his ideas, and then asked again, at least to make sure it was safe and not to run into pirates or anything.

Yes, they have bodyguards and guns on their side, and their combat power is quite strong, but they won't bump into them foolishly anyway.

"It's a medium-sized cruise ship departing from the Philippines. There are more than 300 people. They have already requested to go to an ocean-going squid fishing boat next to it. We squeeze the two boats together, which is barely enough. During this time, we will continue to keep calling. , See if you can connect to satellites or more ships nearby."

The captain's words made several people's faces change, there are so many people.

Although this "Mermaid" is a luxury yacht, it is 70 meters long and 12 meters wide, and there are several floors that are getting smaller and smaller, and the design is very beautiful.

But if there are hundreds of people coming up, it must be quite uncomfortable, and it will definitely get dirty.

"Well, hey, there are so many ladies on board, they will stand on the deck and not allowed to enter the inner cabin, anyway, just send them to the shore."

Zhou Wenjing sighed, it is impossible to arrange the rooms of the rescued people, anyway, we will send them overnight at that time, so we can just make do on the deck.

Then he turned his head and said to Wang Yi and the others who had also come down
"It seems that we can only hurry to the port tonight, and we must clean up by then."

"You can arrange it."

Wang Yi will not put forward other opinions. Although he can be very indifferent sometimes, he will not care if he can save hundreds of people by only slightly affecting some entertainment time.

"Hearing what they said, it should have hit a rock. The hull has water leaks and the engine has broken down, but it should not sink in the short term. The ocean-going squid fishing boat is still going to sea empty, and many people can be on board."

Seeing that the group of second-generations could understand, the captain had a smile on his face.

Then I picked up the walkie-talkie connected to the VHF and continued to inquire about the situation of the cruise ship in English. The reply I got was that it was fine for the time being, with only a few injuries from falls and abrasions, and no serious injuries.

As for the ocean-going squid fishing boat, it seems to have originally come from China, speaking in Mandarin with Hu Jian's accent
"How many vacancies can you spare on the 'Mermaid'? Our maximum is two hundred."

"It shouldn't be a big problem for us to squeeze a little bit to a hundred."

"That's good. Oh, it's really bad. It's bad luck to encounter this kind of thing before it even opened."

The correspondent over there seemed to be complaining, not sure if it was the captain.

But even though they were talking and complaining, their speed was not slow, and the distance was closer. Following the chatter, they seemed to have seen the cruise ship that broke down, and then their voices came from the public frequency. sound

"'Fengshun 168', how is your situation? It's getting dark, turn on the lights, it's dangerous to pick people up later."

It's just that after hearing the voice from their side, the cruise ship over there didn't answer, and didn't respond for a long time.

This has been asked several times in a row.

"Could it be that the power system is also faulty? Don't they have spare batteries for their wireless stations? What kind of crap..."

Then there were some cursing and complaining words from the fishing boat.

"We'll go there first, come quickly..."

After 'Hu Rongyu 038' reminded them, he slowed down the boat and slowly approached it.

Although Captain Huang called Fengshun several times, he also did not get a response.

As for the second generations, the bodyguards, and the group of beauties, they vacated the deck together, and they are ready to stand up at that time.

There were still people taking pictures, and Qin wanted to post a video after returning home.

Anyway, when the time comes, they will all enter the cabin, and let the refugees stand outside.

It would be nice to save a life from a shipwreck!

But at this time, the sun has slowly set to the sea level, and the sky is full of stars...

……

On the already pitch-black sea, a large fishing boat broke through the waves. The waves from the bow of the boat often washed up on the deck, and it seemed a little bumpy.

'Hu Rong Yu 038' is an ocean-going squid fishing boat that can go far into the ocean and has a tonnage of several thousand tons. Although it is not as good as a cruise ship that calls for help, the Cypriot people are not a big problem.

Still sailing empty.

"Come on the street, the lights are not turned on, and I started to slow down, and I was going to turn off the engine, or I would crash into a blood loss."

A strong man with a tanned skin, holding a telescope and vaguely seeing the outline of the cruise ship in the distance in the dark night, gave the order.

Although Liu Mou, the captain of 'Hu Rongyu 038', kept cursing, he still directed the ship to keep approaching, and he had already asked the crew to vacate the deck while on the way.

Just as he kept getting closer, he felt inexplicably that the cruise ship in front of him was lifeless, without any breath of life.

No, shouldn't survivors who have encountered a shipwreck wear life jackets and come to the deck to wait for rescue?Why is there no one on the deck?
If he hadn't confirmed the number of the Fengshun, he would have suspected it was a ghost ship.

"Satellite communication not working yet?"

Looking back at the operator again, the satellite phone only kept sending out some garbled sounds, and after calling a few times on the radio with no response, he finally gritted his teeth and let the boat approach, and at the same time picked up the walkie-talkie Said to the 'Mermaid' on the public channel
"Dude, there is a problem. We are in front of them. They don't have any lights, and there are no ghosts. Can you contact them outside?"

"No, there has been no signal, but we have contacted another yacht, but they are small yachts that can't accommodate a few people, but they are on their way now."

Because the contact range is limited, what can be contacted by 'Mermaid', 'Hu Rongyu 038' may not be able to be contacted. After all, there are coral reefs not far away, so it is normal to find another yacht.

"Okay, it's good if someone is there. I'm going to take someone up to have a look. You should keep in touch with us as much as possible. We'll talk about what's going on. Tsk~ bad luck."

While talking about 'Hu Rongyu 038', the engine has also been turned off, and it began to rely on the inertia of the ship to slowly break through the water and move towards the side of the cruise ship.

The approach of the two ships created a wave of waves on the sea between the two ships, hitting each other.

The helmsman carefully kept a distance to avoid a direct collision.

While driving side by side, I looked at the empty deck at a close distance, but as the distance got closer, the lights on the fishing boat began to hit the cruise ship.

But I saw a lot of messy blood stains on the cabin wall on the deck of the cruise ship!
Every floor has it!
You can also see a dragging feeling of bloody handprints.

After seeing it clearly, Liu Mou and many other crew members were shocked.

"Fighting the street, didn't they encounter zombies? Why don't you tell us about the situation frequently..."

Thinking of this, he continued to signal the boat to approach, while holding the walkie-talkie to explain the changes here.

but……

"I'd better take people up first, we have spearguns and harpoons, and we will tell you if there is a situation..."
