When I was a kid, I thought it was the ending that brought fairy tales back to reality. Today, while eating, I brushed it again, and found that, damn, the ending is obviously even more unrealistic.
The first time she saw him in the group of reporters, she was obviously shocked, and after sitting down, she took another look in disbelief. However, he didn't even show the slightest eagerness to clarify.

It still took four days on Titanic, and there was a lot of dog blood and confessions.
