Awakening

The increasing fluctuation of the ship made the people in the cabin lost their drowsiness. The students strangely looked outside at those thick black clouds.

“Is it going to rain?”

“I think so.”

“This is really a bad luck, why would it suddenly rain when we travel?”

Compared to those students who moaned about their situation, Lei Yin’s face was much more serious. He was not afraid of the rain, he just worried that this rain was not going to be so simple.

After another five minutes, the waves on the surface of the sea became even larger. A faint trace of rain floated into the cabin mixed with the sea breeze.

“Hateful, it’s really raining. Hey, you quickly close the window.”

“How could a nice weather suddenly change and begin to rain?”

“Hey, what’s going on with you? Your face does not look good.”

“I, I want to throw up.”

“Don’t vomit here, quickly go to the washroom.”

Because the ship was rocking harder, several students in the cabin began to feel dizzy.

“Lei, what’s going on?” Being awoken by the shaking of the ship, Amy rubbed her eyes and asked.

“It’s okay, it’s nothing but rain.” Lei Yin took her in his arms and comforted her.

At this time, in the bridge, the 50-something years old Captain’s face nervously added the speed of the ship to its max.

He has been able to affirm that this was definitely a seasonal storm, and it was a big storm.

The seasonal storm was the ship second most feared weather phenomena after Typhoon. Because, compared to the observable large-scale Typhoon, they were created by the sudden fluctuation in sea temperature differences, but they usually happened most often in the months of Spring and Summer.

After years spending his life on the sea, the Captain was well aware of how terrible this storm was. If it was a large or super large ship, this storm will only cause the hull of the ship to swing, and there won’t be any danger. But this ship was only a small-medium passenger ship, if it encountered big waves, then it cannot be taken as a joke. So now, the only solution was to take the fastest speed to rush to the shelter on the nearby Island.

As the rain continued to strengthen, as well as the increasing amplitude of the hull swing, the Teikyo University students with several other tourists clearly felt that this was not going to be a simple drop of rain.

Looking out at the black environment as well as the constantly turning up large waves, a lot of people started to show panic look in their eyes.

Before taking part in this trip, most of them were just ordinary young people living in the metropolis of Tokyo, when would they ever saw the power of nature. action

Just as the Captain predicted, this was a big storm. Later, most of the people on the ship have to hold on something, or they simply cannot stand on the cabin. Strong winds howled outside the window, creating loud noises. The hull constantly swung up and down just like the Pirate Ship ride in the Amusement Park, except, no one felt fun in this one.

Most people lost interest in talking, all of them turned pale as they clutched the armrests to keep their body fixed in place. Some female students could not help holding the handrail side crying out loud together. They just came here to travel and have fun, who would have thought that they will encounter this unlucky thing.

On the outside, dark clouds wrapped the whole sky, looking like it was 7 or 8 in the evening. Watching the environment outside, the Captain decisively turned off the engine. To continue the journey in such a low visibility was a very stupid act. Because it was possible for the ship to unknowingly bump into some dark reef. Now the only thing one can do was to wait for the storm to past. Assuming, of course, the ship has not been overturned.

“Lei, I am afraid.” This was the first time the little girl encountered such a situation and could not help but be scared.

“Don’t worry, it will be alright.” Lei Yin softly comforted her.

“Em.” The little girl replied with a sound and then quietly shrunk to his arms.

Suddenly remembered something, he stood up and, with one hand holding the little girl while the other hand holding on the window frame, slowly walked to the cabin’s front door.

Many students sitting on the chairs looked at him strangely, they did not understand what he wanted to do.

Lei Yin went to the ship front locker, knelt down and opened the cupboard and, sure enough, saw that it was filled with red-orange life jackets. He immediately took one out and put it on Amy, and then he put one on himself.

Because the cabin constantly shook, it took him nearly five minutes to put on the life jackets on the little girl’s body, as well as his body. After they put that on, he walked back to his original seat while holding on the window frame. He then said to the other students: “There are life jackets here, if you want to put them on, you can put it yourself.”

Hearing his words, several students immediately came over and took the life jackets.

After arriving at their seats, Lei Yin pulled out two life jackets and threw them toward the elderly US couple. That elderly couple very gratefully thanked him and immediately put on the life jackets.

“Lei, this dress is so beautiful.” Amy liked the bright color of the life jacket very much.

Hearing this, Lei Yin could not help but burst out laughing. Apparently, she was not afraid anymore.

At this time, the hull was badly shaking, it felt like it was about to turn over. This time, not only the girls, even the boys could not help but cry. These young people who usually posed as elite students, for the first time, felt the threat of death and consequently, lose their head.

At the same time, from the front came the sound of a heavy crash, and then there was a pitiful yell of a middle-aged man. But after that, there was no longer any sound.

Hearing the scream, everyone did not know what was going on in the front, but no one wanted to see. When everyone’s lives were at stake, how could they have the time for others?

Seeing how almost everyone in the cabin shrieked and howled loudly, and then looked at the little girl who tightly shrunk herself in his arms like a kitten, he can only helplessly wait for the storm to past. Fortunately, the fluorescent light inside the cabin shone as normal, or there would be more panic.

After an unknown amount of time, the feeling of violently shaking forever finally stopped slowly. This also meant that the storm has passed.

After passing this calamity, everyone slowly stood up. In determining that the storm was really over, everyone excitedly cheered.

Lei Yin took Amy to the bridge in the front and saw a fifty-something years old man lying on the floor, blood constantly oozed out of his forehead. The ground was flooded with rainwater from the cabin door that was blown open.

Just as Lei Yin previously speculated, the previous scream came from the Captain.

After squatting down to check on his injury, Lei Yin found that his head was violently hit by an object, causing him to have a concussion which led to him being unconscious.

After helping him made a simple wrap around his injury, Lei Yin looked out of the bridge window, and all he saw was an endless sea.

He immediately tried the radio that was equipped on the ship, but there was no reaction at all, perhaps because it was soaked in the rain.

This is bad, he simply did not know where the ship was located.

Lei Yin wryly smiled, maybe this educational trip will turn into a modern version of The Life And Strange Surprising Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe.
