A dilemma

Im getting pretty good at this game but I have reached a dilemma that could end my career on its first patrol. Im in fairly deep water with a crush depth of about 100? I have full torpedoes and plaenty of battery and oxygen. I was going into the tokyo bay to sink something becasue I was getting bombarded by planes out at sea. But I dived to avoid a patrolling destroyer after firing a torp at it. My torp missed the back end. He depth cahrged me a couple of times but I managed to avoid them. Then I divede to 50 feet and turned of all my engines. He went around in circles looking fo rme but couldnt find me. He then stops circling and pretends to go away before going completely silent trying to trick me into moving again.

I am unsure of wether its safe to move on silent running hoping that he wont hear me or just sit under for a while waiting for him to go away. I still have a almost full battery and plenty of oxygen.

go on silent running, perhaps just 0.1 knots, away from japan.
