When the German Admiralty heard of this, the admiral himself came to the submarine and described all the accidents that had occurred in the past as accidental coincidences. Regarding the "Lieutenant's Ghost", the admiral explained that it may be a psychological illusion caused by the cloudy air and the shadows of the lighting on the boat. However, the officers and men on the boat were not relieved, and their faces were covered with gloom. Seeing this situation, the admiral had no choice but to comply with everyone's wishes, and invited a local wizard to board the boat to exorcise evil spirits.
Despite this, the morale of the officers and men on board was still very low. In order to arouse the morale of the army, the superiors appointed Lieutenant Xiao Lai to take over as captain. Lieutenant Xiao Lai was an iron man, and he strictly ordered that ghosts and superstitions should not be talked about on the boat, and anyone who violated them would be dealt with by military law. He also brought two of his close helpers, one was the heavy gunner Eberhachi, and the other was the master chief Mei Yu. For more than a year, the "U-65" was safe and sound, and everything was normal.
However, one day in May 1943, when the "U-65" was attacking an enemy escort ship in the Bay of Biscay in the Atlantic, the "ghost" appeared again. The heavy gunner brought by Captain Shawley, Eberhardt, heard it with his own eyes this time, and he was so frightened that he crashed into the captain's room, and said incoherently: "Ghost, I saw the ghost of the lieutenant." The captain was annoyed when he saw this. Eberhardt relented a little, and hurriedly said, "Lieutenant Ghost' was at the bow of the ship, passing me, but suddenly he disappeared. Captain Shawley was completely unconvinced, and put Eberhardt in a confinement cell.
In the middle of the night, the captain was called out, saying that the imprisoned Eberhardt had committed suicide by taking the guard's **. Captain Xiao Lai was at a loss this time. In the early morning of the next day, the submarine "U-65" surfaced, and as soon as the watchtower door was opened, Master Chief Mei Yu immediately flew into the sea. The people on the boat hurriedly went into the water to rescue, but there was no trace of Mei Yu.
When the U-65 returned to the naval base, the superiors learned of all that had happened on board, and they removed Captain Shaw Lai from his post and brought him before a military tribunal for trial, and later transferred all the personnel on board the U-65. A few weeks later, the "U-65" set sail again and sailed for the English Channel. The new officers and men on board were completely unaware of the haunting that had happened on the boat, but bad luck befell them.
On July 1, 1943, a German newspaper published this news on the page of that day: "The German Navy submarine 'U-65' suddenly disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean, and the whereabouts of the 34 personnel on board are unknown. "What the hell did the submarine "U-65" go? Later, it was found that one day in July 1943, an American submarine was cruising on the surface of the Irish headland, and the captain found a ship floating on the sea in the periscope.
The captain of the American submarine suddenly realized: is this not the "U-65" submarine that Germany declared missing the other day? How did it come out here? Was this a conspiracy played by the Germans? The captain sensed that the situation was not good, so he adjusted his position and prepared to attack the "U-65". At this moment, a loud "boom" was heard, a flame rose on the sea, and the "U-65" sank to the bottom of the sea with people and boats, and the "U-65" mysteriously self-a**.
Strange incidents about the U-65 submarine spread throughout the warring armies and attracted attention. The German Admiralty called in a well-known psychologist to answer the question of what was happening here. After reading all the information, the psychologist could not give a satisfactory explanation, and said helplessly: "This supernatural power cannot be explained, and the evidence does not show any conspiracy of sabotage, which may be solved by 'collective fantasy'."
Presumably it was the 'collective fantasy' that led to the haunting of the "U-65", "this explanation is specious and unreasonable. Is there a better and more convincing explanation than that? There are still many do-gooders who are still struggling to find answers.
