“Minako, you don’t look well today.”
The flight attendants passed through security and headed for the VH*** flight ahead of time. This was a Boeing 782, a large plane, flying from Singapore to Tokyo, Japan.
Shino Shibuya leaned toward Minako and smiled. “I’m guessing it’s related to that Meng Fan-kun, right? I think I saw him from the guest list.” She took another step closer. “Minako, did Meng Fan-kun go to Tokyo because of you? Did you guys already plan to go somewhere?”
Minako Sakurai’s face immediately flushed red. “Shino, don’t say that.”
Shino lowered her voice. “Meng Fan-kun seems very strong, though.”
Minako’s face flushed even redder. She hurriedly left the conversation and went to work.
At the same time, she was watching the time.
“The cargo must be finished loading soon!”
Minako Sakurai was very nervous. As the time neared, she became more and more anxious. In the end, some minor mistakes were made during her preparation.
“Minako, just focus on your work. You can think about your Meng Fan-kun when you arrive in Tokyo…”
Shino Shibuya corrected Minako’s error as she teased her.
“Thank you, Shino!”
Minako Sakurai thought that Shinobu was a relatively great person, aside from that…
Finally, Minako Sakurai received the OK from the loading crew that the cargo in the front of the cabin had been secured and loaded. She immediately headed to the washroom to pass on the information.
…
After entering the lobby, Meng Fan immediately scoped out Alec Lall. From his appearance, he seemed to be of Malaysian or Indonesian descent. He had an average build and looked to be harmless. However, because of Meng Fan’s excellent Observational skills, he could visibly see the strong muscles hidden under his loose clothes and the subtle trace of menace in his eyes.
Some things just couldn’t be hidden!
Especially under a very watchful eye.
Meng Fan was still very cautious. When he had trained with Lao Hei, he had frequently scouted for information. He knew that there were people in this world that had distinct five senses, and sometimes even a sixth one. Some people could even perceive that they were being watched. If he kept looking at Alec Lall, it was likely he’d be discovered.
Meng Fan pulled out an apple from the bag he carried with him but continued to monitor his phone. He didn’t broadcast the live stream onto his phone; he was really watching his virtual screen instead.
Aside from this, Meng Fan also tried to scope out the other two hijackers. It turned out that he was really able to find a suspicious person with his Observational skills. It was an individual who looked fierce but a little dumb.
As Meng Fan was watching him, this person had been glancing towards Alec Lall several times. Meng Fan could even see Alec Lall cautioning him with a glare.
With that, Meng Fan could confirm that this was another one of the hijackers.
Meng Fan wasn’t able to find the other two, though.
Unfortunately, this stupid man didn’t try to ‘find’ the others like he did with Alec Lall. If so, Meng Fan would have been able to find all the targets.
After throwing out his finished apple in the garbage, Meng Fan continued to monitor his phone. In his other hand, he began to play with two coins.
A bag of fruit and twenty or so coins was the arsenal of weapons that Meng Fan had prepared.
…
Three minutes after Minako Sakurai sent out the message, the inspection vehicle for the cargo appeared on its last routine near the aircraft. At the same time, two groups of airport patrol also approached. Each group consisted of two soldiers and a policeman.
The inspection vehicles parked in the loading zone, and two police officers descended from the car in addition to the inspectors.
The supervisor, Abdul Nak, was about to approach and greet the inspectors, but creased his brows as he saw the two policemen. He maintained his composure, but when he saw two police officers walk towards him from both sides, his demeanor changed.
“Don’t move!”
He had wanted to scramble, but the police officers had drawn their guns!
“Everyone be quiet!”
In the loading area, a team of ten people had appeared, controlling everyone in the area.
