In addition to the fast moving staff, in an area surrounded by police tape, there were also some news reporters carrying long and short cannons. There was even a girl holding a bouquet of flowers.
Xia Ruofei, who was about to get off the plane, was slightly taken aback when he saw this scene. He thought to himself: There's a red carpet, flowers, and the media. Is there an important guest on this Qantas Airbus today? But if there's a guest, it shouldn't be parked in this ordinary seat …
At this time, the flight attendant had opened the cabin door and lowered the gangway ladder. Xia Ruofei stepped toward the cabin door with a trace of doubt.
As soon as he stepped down from the gangway ladder of the Haven, he faintly heard someone shouting his name excitedly.
Because the scene was too noisy, Xia Ruofei couldn't hear it clearly. When he turned his head to look for the source of the sound, the porthole on the captain's side of the cockpit of the Qantas Airbus A350 opened …
A person stretched out his upper body laboriously, then waved excitedly at Xia Ruofei, shouting his name loudly.
Xia Ruofei took a closer look and couldn't help but be surprised. The captain of this flight turned out to be Captain Brooke, who had gone through thick and thin with him.
The Qantas flight that Xia Ruofei took had a two-captain configuration, with two captains and a co-pilot flying together. During the accident, the co-pilot, Wilkins, poisoned the captain, Johansson. When Xia Ruofei broke the cabin door, Captain Brooke was the first to rush into the cockpit, followed by Xia Ruofei.
At that time, Wilkins used the most extreme method to continuously shoot the windshield with a steel ball gun, causing the windshield on the co-pilot's side to completely shatter. Wilkins was also directly sucked out of the cockpit by the strong air pressure and died without a burial place.
Captain Brooke took the lead in rushing into the cockpit, and he was also the first to bear the brunt. Not only was one of his arms injured by the rebounding steel ball, but he was also sucked out when the pressure in the cockpit was lost. He slammed heavily into the seat, and his other arm was fractured.
At that time, Captain Brooke was the only pilot on the plane, but both of his hands were injured. It was precisely because of this that Xia Ruofei had to sit in the pilot's seat.
In the end, it was thanks to Xia Ruofei's strong psychological quality and superb learning ability, and under the technical guidance of Captain Brooke that the plane finally landed safely in Saipan.
Xia Ruofei did not expect that today would be such a coincidence. His Haven and Captain Brooke's Ruofei actually landed one after the other, and they were even assigned to adjacent parking spots.
Xia Ruofei and Captain Brooke could be said to have experienced life and death together. If it weren't for the two's seamless cooperation at that time, the passengers on the plane would have been buried at sea. Therefore, this kind of experience of life and death together could easily shorten the distance between people.
Seeing Captain Brooke again, Xia Ruofei was naturally very happy. He stood next to the Haven and waved at Captain Brooke vigorously.
Captain Brooke shouted loudly, "Xia, don't go yet, wait for me down there!"
Xia Ruofei was not in a hurry to come to Australia this time. Since he met Captain Brooke, the two of them would definitely catch up, so he nodded and made an OK gesture to Captain Brooke.
The rest of the people on the Haven also got off the plane. Captain Liu An came over and said, "Mr. Xia, the tower changed the parking spot at the last minute. I think they saw two similar and unique planes, so they changed the parking spot at the last minute. Now we are relatively far from the business jet channel. I have already called the ferry from the cockpit. You may need to wait for a while. "
Xia Ruofei waved his hand with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I met an acquaintance. I may have to stay here for a while."
"An acquaintance?" Liu An was slightly stunned.
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. He pointed to the cockpit of the Qantas Airbus A350 and said, "He's up there! I'll introduce you later. "
Liu An saw that Xia Ruofei was keeping him in suspense, so he didn't continue to ask. He could only nod with a trace of doubt and said, "Okay …"
The door of the Qantas plane opened, and the passengers began to get off the plane.
When they saw the red carpet at the end of the gangway, they couldn't help but be surprised and happy. They just didn't know which great god they were riding on.
The ground crew quickly led the passengers to the exit passage, while Xia Ruofei and the others stood beside the Haven and waited patiently. The captain must be the last to leave the plane. Only when all the passengers got off the plane, the crew would leave.
There weren't too many passengers on this flight, only about a hundred people in total. Although everyone was curious about the red carpet and the media, they were very orderly and didn't stay at the scene for too long. They walked into the passage in an orderly manner.
Finally, all the passengers got off the plane. The flight attendants also got off the plane in a line, followed by the air marshal and two other pilots. They stood on both sides of the gangway.
The media reporters at the scene also raised their cameras and cameras.
Xia Ruofei looked up at the Airbus A350 cabin door with some curiosity. It seemed that today's protagonist was Captain Brooke! Because he was the only one who didn't get off the plane.
Sure enough, when Brooke appeared at the cabin door a moment later, there was a warm applause at the scene.
Brooke waved to the crowd with a smile on his face, then stepped down the gangway.
The girl holding the flowers also came out of the crowd and stood at the bottom of the gangway, waiting. Beside her stood a middle-aged woman with an outstanding temperament.
When Brooke stepped down the last step, the girl stepped forward and handed the flowers with tears in her eyes. She said with a choked voice, "Dad! Congratulations! "
It turned out that the girl was Captain Brooke's daughter. Today, she came here to give her father flowers, and the one beside her was Brooke's wife.
After Brooke took the flowers, he smiled and hugged his wife and daughter in his arms. The scene suddenly sounded with the sound of shutters and applause.
After a short hug, Brooke patted his wife and daughter on the back and said, "Wait for me for a while!"
After that, he handed the flowers back to his daughter. Then, ignoring the media reporters who had been extending their microphones, he strode directly to Xia Ruofei.
From a distance, Captain Brooke laughed and opened his arms. Xia Ruofei also smiled and greeted him. The two of them hugged each other tightly.
Captain Brooke asked, "Xia, did you come all the way here just to celebrate the first flight of my return flight? You're such a good friend! "
Xia Ruofei was stunned and asked, "Captain Brooke, is this the first flight after the flight?"
"Yes!" Captain Brooke grinned and said, "After the injury on my arm healed, I went through a long period of psychological intervention treatment. Finally, after a psychological test and a simulator test, the Aviation Department has determined that I am qualified to fly again. Today is my first flight, and the company has also specially assigned the 'Ruofei' for me to fly. We think it's more memorable."
After that fright in the air, Captain Brooke didn't just suffer a broken arm and external injuries. In fact, he witnessed his colleague Johansson being poisoned to death in his seat, and co-pilot Wilkins being directly sucked out of the cockpit by a huge airflow and died without a burial place. This caused a great psychological trauma to him.
In fact, during this long period of time, Captain Brooke was mainly undergoing psychological rehabilitation.
He continued to receive psychological intervention treatment. In the beginning, when he closed his eyes, he would see the horror scene in the cockpit, and when he fell asleep, he would dream of Wilkins and Johansson. Later, the symptoms gradually eased, and finally, he completely reached the standard of airworthiness. It could be said that this was an extremely difficult process.
In the end, Captain Brooke was able to return to his flight post completely because of his strong perseverance and love for flying.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Then I really have to congratulate you, Captain Brooke! But … I really didn't come here to observe the ceremony. I didn't get any notice in advance. In fact, I came here to inspect my farm and winery in the Hunter's Valley. I didn't expect that our two planes would land one after the other, and we were even noticed by the control tower. That's why they made such an interesting arrangement. "
Hearing this, Captain Brooke couldn't help but open his eyes wide and exclaim, "God! This is unbelievable! "
Xia Ruofei shrugged and said, "I think it's unbelievable too! Anyway, I made it in time for this important ceremony! Congratulations again, Brooke! I also wish you all the best in your future flying career, take off and land safely! Have a good flight! "
"Thank you! Thank you! " Brooke said. "In the words of the Huaxia people, this is called 'fate brings us together!'"
When Captain Brooke said the words "Fate brings us together", he actually used Chinese. Although it was a bit clumsy, overall, his pronunciation was relatively clear.
Xia Ruofei said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to learn Chinese …"
Captain Brooke grinned and asked, "In the process of receiving psychotherapy, I taught myself some Chinese. At the same time, I also have a great interest in your magical Chinese medicine. Of course, my Chinese is still very ordinary, limited to a small number of daily words! "
Speaking of this, Captain Brooke showed a distressed look and said, "Your language is really too complicated … Xia, do you know? I saw a question in a Chinese learning forum, and I'm still confused! "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Tell me about it, I can help you solve your confusion! "
Captain Brooke nodded and said, "Xiao Fang said, 'F * ck, I haven't had my period this month, and I'm so worried. It's a scam!' The question is, who is worried?
A, Xiao Fang's sister
B, Xiao Fang's mother
C, Xiao Fang's sister
D, Xiao Fang's father
E, Xiao Fang's period
F, Xiao Fang
G, Xiao Fang's boyfriend, Xiao Ming … "
Xia Ruofei saw Captain Brooke's confused look and almost burst out laughing. He patted Captain Brooke's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Brooke, this is just a funny question, you don't have to take it seriously."
Captain Brooke's eyes widened and asked, "Is there no answer to this question?"
"Uh … of course there is an answer." Xia Ruofei said, "If it were me, I would choose g, Xiao Fang's boyfriend, Xiao Ming."
Captain Brooke was even more confused after hearing this, because he was the first to rule out this option.
Captain Brooke couldn't help but cry, "Why? This Xiao Ming didn't appear in the text at all! "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but touch his forehead and said, "This is a bit complicated … I'll explain it to you slowly when I have time. You should go to the celebration ceremony now …"
Captain Brooke came back to his senses and said, "Okay then! Xia, you have to explain this question to me properly. It's really too profound! By the way … "
Speaking of this, Captain Brooke smiled at Xia Ruofei and asked, "Xia, do you remember what I said after the plane landed?"
"I remember you said a lot of things." Xia Ruofei shrugged and asked, "I don't know which one you are referring to."
Captain Brooke said seriously, "I said that everything is God's arrangement! Look! On the first flight after I resumed flying, you appeared here, and our two planes landed at the same time. This once again confirms my statement, doesn't it? "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be speechless. He smiled and said, "Captain Brooke, of course I respect your beliefs, but in my opinion, this is just a coincidence!"
Captain Brooke insisted, "This is definitely not just a coincidence …"
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded, "Dear, everyone is waiting for you!"
The person who came was Captain Brooke's wife, Mo Li. She saw her husband leave the airline leaders and media reporters behind and run to the private jet next door to chat with a young man for so long. She couldn't help but come over to take a look.
"Hey! Dear! "Captain Brooke said excitedly," Look who this is! "
Mo Li was stunned for a moment and looked at Xia Ruofei seriously. In the eyes of many Westerners, the faces of Huaxia people were similar, just like how Huaxia people looked at foreigners. Many Huaxia people also couldn't distinguish the features of foreigners.
Mo Li's eyes gradually widened. She covered her mouth and then exclaimed, "Oh! God! You're Mr. Xia! "
Captain Brooke put his arm around Mo Li's waist and said with a smile, "Xia, this is my wife, Mo Li!"
Xia Ruofei then smiled at Mo Li and said, "Ms. Mo Li, nice to meet you!"
"Thank you! Thank you … Mr. Xia, you saved my husband's flying career. No! You saved his life! " Mo Li said excitedly, "I'm so happy to be able to meet you at such a special time!"
Captain Brooke gently hugged Mo Li and said, "Dear, we should go over now!"
Then, he said to Xia Ruofei, "Xia, you should go too! I believe that the higher-ups of the Aviation Department and the reporters at the scene will be very happy to see you here! "
