Chapter 77: It’s a Monster
"Sirs and madams, when we arrive at the island, please don’t wander around. After I’ve done a headcount, I’ll bring everyone to the programs we have on the island.
"There are many programs on the island. There are all kinds of fun and food. One day is definitely not enough, so don’t be anxious…"
The tour guide held the microphone and was explaining seriously.
But at that moment, the ferry—which had been moving steadily forward—suddenly shook and made a loud noise, as if it had hit something.
The sudden collision caused many people to fall to the ground. Some even hit their heads.
For a moment, screams resounded from inside the ferry.
The tour guide instructed everyone in the tour group to fasten their seat belts before the ferry sailed, so none were hurt.
They were old people. If they were to fall or get injured, it would be troublesome.
Therefore, when they boarded the ferry, the tour guide had checked them one by one.
However, even though the elderly in the tour group were fine, the tour guide was miserable.
She spoke while standing up, and there were no protective measures on her body. She was flung to the side once the ferry swayed. Many parts of her body were injured, and her forehead was even bleeding quite badly.
However, she was very professional. When she encountered this emergency, the first thing she thought of was not herself but the old folks in the tour group.
"Sirs, madams, is everyone alright?" The tour guide stood up unsteadily and tried to stabilize her body.
Although the elderly were not injured, they were still frightened.
At this moment, the ferry shook once more, and another loud bang sounded.
Dong——
The people on the ship screamed while the children wailed.
The tour guide grabbed the handle on the seat hard to keep from being flung away.
But the ferry was shaking too badly. A young girl like her had no strength.
Just then, a strong hand supported her.
It was Zhong Gufei.
"Young lady, take it easy." Zhong Gufei helped the tour guide to her seat and put on her seatbelt for her.
"Thank… thank you!" The tour guide lowered her head and blushed.
She felt ashamed when she thought of her attitude this morning.
After helping the tour guide through her difficulties, Zhong Gufei walked out of the cabin with his hammer in hand.
The tour guide immediately shouted, "Sir, don’t go out. It’s dangerous outside."
Zhong Gufei didn’t pay her any attention. Even though the ferry was shaking, for him, it was like walking on flat ground.
Outside of the cabin, a lot of seawater had gushed onto the deck.
Generally speaking, there were no sailors on such ferries.
Therefore, the crew had no idea how to deal with such an unexpected situation. They could only send out a distress signal and wait for the rescue team to arrive.
Zhong Gufei used to be a seaman and had worked at sea for over 30 years.
He had some experience with such situations.
Zhong Gufei stepped onto the deck and came to the guardrail. He looked down.
There was a huge shadow under the ferry. It was moving. It was not a reef.
When he saw this, he instinctively thought they had hit a whale.
When he worked at sea, he often encountered such situations.
However, the ship he had worked on was a freighter, so it wasn’t much of a problem if they hit a whale.
