"Regrettably, we have received notification that the South Korean side has refused the port entry application, and we cannot stay at Jeju Island Port."
When Gu Ji finished saying this, he could even hear the sounds of disappointment from the crowd on the deck outside the door.
Everyone had persevered for a day just to be able to go ashore for hospital treatment.
But now, this last hope was shattered, and it was inevitable that they would mentally collapse.
"Oh my God! Look! Look!"
While the first mate and police were puzzled as to why Gu Ji directly told this bad news to the tourists on the ship, a sailor was shouting continuously, pointing at the sea area in front of the right through the deck window.
Everyone hurriedly leaned towards the window.
Amidst the faint waves, three huge gray warships suddenly appeared in the sea area in front of the Platinum Star, with the leading one at least over a hundred meters long.
The warships were covered with various kinds of weaponry, with the command building in the center of the warship, equipped with radar and electronic jamming systems. The bow was fitted with a fully automatic naval gun and an aviation missile launcher, and each side had two anti-submarine torpedo launchers and anti-submarine rocket launchers.
The third officer's face changed dramatically: "It's a destroyer!"
He could no longer care about being infected, and directly ran into the cockpit, "Miss Jian, the South Korean Navy has deployed destroyers and frigates! We can't move forward anymore!"
Seeing the South Korean military take serious action, many staff immediately panicked.
"Attention, this is the South Korean Navy. Your vessel has intruded into territorial waters without permission. Please leave immediately! Please leave immediately!"
"Reiterating once again! This is the last serious warning! If you do not leave immediately, we will take compulsory military measures!"
Buzz——!
Accompanied by the warning sounds from the South Korean military over the radio, the next second, an alarm also blared on the sea, and the three South Korean Navy warships simultaneously accelerated their speed, with the leading destroyer beginning to adjust its automatic turret.
"Ah!"
Several cleaning staff instantly covered their eyes, not daring to look again, with some shrinking into a corner out of fear.
"Stop it quickly!"
The third officer said while trying to rush up to seize the control panel, but was firmly blocked by Gu Ji, "Trust me! I have a solution!"
Just as he finished speaking, the ship's radio equipment sounded with the voice from the Japan Airlines management center:
"This is the Japan Air Traffic Control... I am the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Ishitei Tengyi. Do you know what you are doing? Return to Kobe Port immediately, proceeding further will provoke conflict between the two countries..."
Crack!
Confronted with the reprimand from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Gu Ji didn't even listen, slapped the button to turn it off, and with a determined expression, continued to press the ship-wide broadcast:
"I know everyone is very disappointed and scared facing the warship expulsion, but we have no retreat. The cruise ship's out-of-control incident has devastated the hospital and medical prevention, causing severe casualties among the tourists, with even more infected in this accident."
"Therefore, I urgently need everyone's help. To the tourists of South Korean nationality, I hope you can come forward at this moment. For the lives of all tourists on board, and for your own survival, go to the foredeck and write slogans, loudly appeal to your own country for help!"
Upon hearing the last sentence, the crowd could hardly believe their ears.
They finally understood Gu Ji's purpose: to use South Korean tourists to seek their government's sympathy.
What a move.
Using morality to manipulate a country, this is quite a bold move!!
It must be said, this "sneaky trick" is indeed too ingenious; once South Korean tourists showed up on deck and were seen by the warships, they could no longer fire on the cruise ship, otherwise, it would be tantamount to massacring compatriots.
The government and military would also not stand idly by watching their nationals suffer and do nothing.
Even if they won't allow docking, they would at least dispatch appropriate medical aid.
Immediately, a male cleaner shouted, "I'm Korean," and then turned and ran outside the deck.
Humans have a desire to survive.
If there is any way to survive, they are willing to try it.
As more and more South Korean tourists ran out to the deck, some held up signs written in Korean for help, while others shouted loudly.
For the South Korean Navy, it couldn't be easier to see the few people on the deck clearly.
Sure enough, the turrets did not continue to lock onto the cruise ship, and the fleet gradually slowed down.
After a while of silence, seemingly receiving high-level orders, the South Korean Navy sent another radio signal: "This is the South Korean Navy, your port entry permit is still not approved, but in the spirit of humanitarianism, we are willing to send a medical team to board and assist!"
"I have two final requests! First, there is an urgent shortage of medical supplies on board, especially protective clothing; second, I hope to carry out virus testing to identify the source early."
Gu Ji's two requests were not unreasonable, and after a brief discussion, the South Korean military agreed to his application.
"That's great!"
The medical staff present were so excited they almost cried, although they couldn't successfully land, at least they wouldn't have to fight alone in the days to come.
"You're the calmest person I've ever seen!"
The third officer marveled, shaking his head repeatedly.
From being accused by the police of being a "terrorist," to the vessel getting out of control, to finally withstanding the pressure of three South Korean Navy warships, fighting for a hope of survival for all the tourists on board—it was perfect.
Even an experienced old captain might not be able to achieve this!
"The cockpit is now returned to you."
Gu Ji just looked at him calmly, not as excited as the others, because he knew more dangerous things had not yet been resolved!
As he walked, he took out his phone, skillfully opening LINE and Twitter.
The title displayed on the homepage was "Platinum Star Cruise Suspected of Terrorist Biological Attack." Upon clicking in, it was filled with news related to the cruise ship infectious disease incident, along with various pictures and videos.
The related topic discussions had already exceeded over two million.
He clicked on one of the videos, which showed the scene of the middle-parted man vomiting during last night's cruise sweepstakes, sliding further down to the moment the silver-haired old man fell from upstairs.
Gu Ji even found a video of Ito Meiyu filming her from the second floor.
Expand the comments.
[This Xia Kingdom woman is so cool, full of aura!]
[Why would Xiangzhou CHP get involved with a Japanese cruise?]
[It seems this cruise ship isn't Japanese after all, it's registered in the United Kingdom!]
[I think this is a thorough biological terrorist attack, a normally naturally transmitted virus wouldn't spread so fast in such a short period!]
[My God, this is a cruise ship, a semi-closed space, of course, the virus would spread quickly!]
[Underneath the news it seems exposed that this woman isn't really from Xiangzhou CHP, her true identity is really questionable!]
