Chapter 320 - Home (1/2)

The plane safely landed.

The ground was full of police cars, ambulance, firetrucks, and a lot of police officers, paramedics along with a group of firemen.

They quickly surrounded the plane that Michael and others are.

There are also reporters who are already waiting for them at the side, eager to be first to get this breaking news!

Michael got down from the plane through the evacuation slide and followed the rest of the evacuated passengers. He had already told the crew and passengers who had witnessed what he did back on the plane that they shouldn't mention him, and just tell the officials that the one who had saved them was Chris.

Chris was the one who had helped Michael take down the hijackers. He's on a vacation from the military and was on their way to visit their relatives in another city with his grandmother when the hijacking happened.

”I...thank you”

The flight attendant that Micheal had saved before approached him and whispered. He just gave her a smile and nodded, then he looked at the people who were looking at him with complicated eyes, then his eyes landed on Chris who was surrounded by a couple of news reporters as the police officers tried to pull them away from the man.

Chris's eyes met Michael's, his pair of eyes became serious, along with a tinge of confusion, but in the end, he just nodded back at him as he quickly remembered what Michael had told them just before the plane landed.

Ten minutes earlier.

”If they ask, just make sure to tell them that it was all done by Chris, and not me alright? I don't want anyone bothering me because of it”

”Why don't you want to be known? You'll get fame for it, the company might even award you with a monetary reward. Heck, I wouldn't even doubt the city mayor would acknowledge your bravery for this”

”No, I just don't need fame. It's a burden, not like I'm a celebrity or something. I just don't want my peaceful life to be disturbed, so I kindly ask everyone to never mention what I did here”

Michael smiled at them, the flight attendant earlier and Chris constantly tried to change his mind. After all, what he did here was a good deed, but they can't just understand why he didn't want to be known, as anyone in their right minds would surely want to be recognized after what he had done.

But in the end, all of them relented as they also respect his wishes as after all, they can't deny the fact that he had saved them as they wouldn't even know what will happen to them if the hijackers were successful.

Even Chris admitted that he alone wouldn't be able to take down the hijackers without Michael.

”This is my business card, if you ever need anything, just contact me”

”Me too, if you need any help, just call me young lad”

”This is my card, if you want to eat some good food, then I'll personally cook for you at my restaurant”

One by one, some businessmen among them gave Michael their business cards as thanks, and at the same time, they also thought that it would great to create a connection with this young man before them. After all, who can predict that they wouldn't need someone of Michael's skills in the future?

They also gave their cards to Chris, as the young man surprising holds the rank of a Major in the army.

Michael smiled at that and took a seat. Some of the passengers are all wide awake, but some of them are still shaking from fear, especially those younger than Michael as they probably hadn't expected that death wasn't that far away today.
