After setting the cruise, Zhang Heng took out two bottles of red wine from the passenger cabin and a box of sleeping pills to help him sleep during long-distance flights.
Zhang Heng poured a glass of red wine and put in a sleeping pill. After the bottle of sleeping pills melted, Zhang Heng handed the red wine to Han Lu in the cockpit.
Although the two were temporarily out of danger, Han Lu still looked a little worried. She took the wine glass and asked, "Will the Self-Defense Forces send fighter jets to chase us? Once they call the police, we will probably be captured as soon as we land at the airport. But we can go through diplomatic procedures. I will find a few friends and contact the embassy to see if they can deal with this matter … I thought something happened to you, so I informed Shen Xixi. She should be on her way to Yonaguni Island. Since we have left, we should inform her so that she won't be in danger. "
But don't worry, they won't be able to catch up with us. As for Shen Xixi, I will contact her later to explain to her personally … Hey, you have been through a lot today, and it's almost midnight. Why don't you drink this glass of wine and take a nap? We will talk about the rest when you wake up. "Zhang Heng interrupted her before she could finish her sentence," Those monsters probably don't want to make things worse. They won't call the police. But don't worry, they won't be able to catch up with us.
"Okay." Han Lu did not reject Zhang Heng's proposal. Although she wanted to know why the soldiers chasing them couldn't catch up with them, Zhang Heng didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. Still, she picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp. But then she frowned. "Ugh, it seems that the owner of this plane has bad taste. The wine he hid tastes weird. It seems he was deceived by the wine seller and bought some fake wine."
"Then I will open another bottle for you," Zhang Heng said while taking out another bottle.
But Han Lu shook her head after that, "No need. I'll take this bottle. I'm not in the mood to drink now. To be honest, I'm not in the mood to sleep either."
"At least you can lie down and close your eyes for a while," Zhang Heng said.
Han Lu nodded. "Then I'll lie down for ten minutes. I still have a lot of questions for you. When I wake up, you have to tell me how you got rid of those monsters underwater and how you got back to the island …"
After that, Han Lu went to the small bed in the passenger cabin. Not long after she lay down, a wave of sleepiness hit her. Han Lu yawned, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier.
Zhang Heng got up and covered her with a small blanket. He then looked at his watch again.
There was less than half a minute left until midnight. Soon, they would enter the still world.
This was also the reason why Zhang Heng did not care about the possible pursuers.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he would be caught if he brought Han Lu with him, he could have hidden until midnight.
In her half-awake state, Han Lu vaguely heard an inexplicably reassuring voice. "Good night. Everything that happened before was just a nightmare. Everything will be fine when you wake up."
Han Lu wanted to listen more, but her consciousness was getting blurrier and blurrier. Soon, she fell asleep.
…
Han Lu did not know how long she had slept, but she could feel that she was lying in bed.
And it was not the small bed on the private plane. It was a big bed, and the light outside the window had begun to dawn.
Could it be that they were in the hotel? Had they arrived in Naha? But how did Zhang Heng convince the airport to let them land? And how did he get rid of the pursuers?
Han Lu opened her eyes as she thought about it. Her eyes widened when she saw what she saw.
She found out that she was not in Naha at all. Instead, she was at home, lying on her bed. Han Lu quickly grabbed the phone on the bedside table. What surprised her even more was that it was only June 13th. Less than six hours had passed since they left Yonaguni Island.
Considering the distance between China and Japan, this was more than enough time for them to fly back to China.
However, Zhang Heng did not have a pilot's license, and he could not explain the origin of the plane. Flying back to China would only cause more trouble for him.
Han Lu then turned on the computer, and to her relief, she did not see any news about a private plane trespassing into the airport.
On this day, the Internet was no different from the past. The trending searches were filled with all kinds of gossip about celebrities, new jokes about TV dramas and variety shows, and other eye-catching news. The whole world seemed to be singing and dancing to celebrate peace and prosperity.
When Han Lu walked into the living room, she saw the card on the coffee table.
[Thank you for your vacation. Breakfast is in the kitchen. I hope I can explain to you what happened on that island, but I am actually investigating this matter myself. Maybe I will tell you the truth after I investigate everything in the future, even if the truth may not be what you want.]
The last signature was Zhang Heng.
Han Lu put down the card, walked into the kitchen, and turned on the rice cooker.
Inside, she saw a bowl of tofu pudding that was being kept warm, and two freshly fried dough sticks.
At this moment, Zhang Heng had arrived at the lounge on the second floor of the bar.
Because it was almost dawn, there were almost no other players in the lounge. Only the bored bartender lady was playing with her mobile phone behind the bar counter.
Strangely enough, Zhang Heng and the bartender lady had known each other for a long time.
According to the bartender lady, she worked several jobs to earn money. In other words, she worked during the day. The maid cafe was not only the first place Zhang Heng met the old man in the Tang suit, but it was also the first place he met her. At night, she managed the game checkpoints here.
However, Zhang Heng had never seen her sleepy. Although she was not enthusiastic about her work most of the time, at least she was always sober.
When Zhang Heng walked in from the door, the bartender lady, who was playing with her mobile phone, suddenly let out a soft cry. The tip of her nose twitched twice as if she smelled something.
"Where have you been all this time?"
"On Yonaguni Island. I spent some time with my friends," Zhang Heng replied.
"Yonaguni Island. No wonder." The bartender lady showed a look of realization when she heard Zhang Heng's words, but she obviously did not want to explain why she said that. She just nodded and said, "You are here for the knife and the small game item, right?"
Zhang Heng nodded, "Yes." In addition to the Ordinary Sword that was recast, Zhang Heng also entrusted the Heart of Kreis that he obtained from the Rome trip to the bartender lady to appraise it. Now, it was finally time for him to receive the item.
"Uh-huh." The bartender lady turned around and took out two wooden boxes made of tule tree, one big and one small, and placed them in front of Zhang Heng.
"Here, your game item. Which one do you want to see first?"
