Survival Tale on a Deserted Island: I and Airline Stewardess

56.Peggy's bad news

It turns out that Peggy was not from our flight; she came from the rescue team!

"I was originally a volunteer in Singapore. After your plane crashed, Tianmei Airlines quickly organized us to come and search for you..." The plane we were on belonged to a major international airline, Tianmei Airlines.

According to Peggy, their rescue team arrived promptly to search for our whereabouts. However, the area where we went missing, though in the open sea, was surrounded by several disputed regions. This added difficulty to their search. Nevertheless, relying on their professionalism and advanced capabilities, they quickly discovered some wreckage of our plane. Unfortunately, they found no survivors, not even a body.

This outcome was obviously unsatisfactory for Tianmei Airlines in providing an explanation to the public. The rescue team continued their mission. However, an unexpected event occurred. Their helicopter suddenly experienced a malfunction. According to the crew, it seemed to encounter a massive interference electromagnetic field, causing the malfunction of various electronic devices on the aircraft.

In the end, they also fell from a high altitude into the sea. When Peggy woke up, she found herself on this deserted island.

"The geographical location of this deserted island is very peculiar. When we searched the surroundings, we didn't even discover it. Combined with the interference field our plane encountered earlier, I suspect there are some strange geographical phenomena near this island, interfering with our search instruments." Peggy's words felt like a heavy stone pressing on everyone's hearts.

Her implication was clear—other rescue teams would also find it challenging to locate us! This dealt a significant blow to everyone. The atmosphere became very heavy, and everyone's expressions were unpleasant. Especially Hu Yijian and Qianyi, their faces turned exceptionally pale.

After seeing this, I became secretly alert. "I must find a way to deal with Hu Yijian as soon as possible!" I knew that the reason Hu Yijian hadn't become desperate and continued to nod and bow to me every day was because he held a glimmer of hope. He hoped that when the rescue team arrived, he could return to the outside world and seek revenge on me. Now, hearing Peggy's words, the possibility of the rescue team coming seemed to be diminishing. Without hope, Hu Yijian, with his despicable personality, might do something extreme.

"Don't worry too much, everyone. Even if the rescue team doesn't come, we can help ourselves. As long as we survive here, we can figure out a way to build a bamboo raft!" I tried to comfort everyone and boost morale.

Originally, I just said it casually, not expecting Peggy to be very happy. She clapped her hands, excitedly saying, "I was thinking the same! When I was alone on the island before, I didn't know how to build a bamboo raft. Now that we have so many people, we can make it happen!"

"Can we really?" Xu Xiaorong asked eagerly.

"Of course! When I was searching for you before, I found that in the vicinity of this ocean, there are many small islands. Moreover, some of these islands have people. You know, this sea has many disputed areas, and some places even have military presence! As long as we navigate the sea with a bamboo raft, it won't take long for someone else to rescue us!" Peggy's words were confident, and everyone, upon hearing this, immediately felt a sense of hope.

While I breathed a sigh of relief, I couldn't shake the feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
