Chapter Fifteen
At night in a foreign country, dim lights flashed in the bar behind him, and several cars passed by from time to time on the road under the balcony.
The voices were loud, and the noise was separated.
Under the sky full of stars, the young man was wearing a thin shirt, looking up at the sky. There was a cigarette between his fingers, a sneer and mocking smile appeared on his thin lips, and his brows were filled with insatiable shame and hostility. Countless evil pouring in came, almost intensely becoming black substance.
However, as soon as he looked back, all the negative emotions were wiped out.
Zhuo Huan saw him with a surprised expression, and then heard him say
"Teacher Zhuo? 』
If it weren't for the smoke in the trash can, who was still lying there quietly, who would have believed that this gentle young man, five minutes ago, had been struggling to crawl out of a black stone in a quagmire, and his whole body was full of strong malice.
Lina was in a daze when she heard Zhuo Huan’s words. She laughed and said, “Although I don’t think Fu looks like smoking, he is an adult. Reid, an adult man smokes, I don’t think there is anything wrong with it. . It's you, you should smoke less."
Zhuo Huan laughed: "You don't understand."
Lina: "But I understand, you should quit smoking."
Soon, Lina stepped away from the balcony and returned to the bar.
After everyone drank for a while, the old Joseph was drunk again, and Fucheng and Su Fei helped him back together.
At noon the next day, investigate the headquarters.
Everyone in UAAG and EASA is anxiously waiting for the test report from the Tokyo laboratory.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Teichi Tsunai sent the experiment report to UAAG's mailbox, and at the same time, he made a video call.
In the video, the young physics professor still wears the same clothes as yesterday, and the dashed cyan under his eyes suggests that this person must have been all night last night to complete the experiment. However, he did not show fatigue. Instead, he said to Zhuo Huan in a firm tone: "After 17 experiments, the MCD magnetic chip detector used in the Rolls-Royce Trent 810 engine has 6 times of electromagnetic field disturbances. , Destroy the circuit system."
"The probability is 35%."
"I think this is enough to prove some problems. As for how to make a decision, Zhuo Jun, it's up to you."
Zhuo Huan: "Thank you."
Tsuna Teichi: "You're welcome."
When the video call hung up, Zhuo Huan raised his head, and saw everyone in the investigation headquarters nervously looking at him.
Zhuo Huan looked at them and raised an eyebrow: "What are you waiting for? It's time to write a report."
There was a burst of cheers in the office.
It is said that everyone writes the report, but in fact, the investigation report was almost written by Zhuo Huan alone.
Fucheng and others helped him collect the information, and Zhuo Huan directly took over the responsibility of writing the investigation report.
Old Joseph: "Investigation reports are indeed done by one person. It is indeed the best thing. There are too many people who write it, but it is easy to ignore the problem. However, it takes a long time to write this thing. It takes a detailed summary of the accident and all the evidence collected. , And even the collection process is clearly stated. Moreover, the reason for this time is also very complicated. I am afraid that I will write 10,000 characters."
At nine o'clock in the evening, everyone left the investigation headquarters one after another. Only Zhuo Huan remained in the office and did not leave.
Fucheng was the last to leave. Standing in front of the stairs, he looked back at Zhuo Huan.
Lina: "There will be a press conference tomorrow. Reid should want to complete the investigation report today."
Fucheng said in surprise: "It will open tomorrow?"
Lina: "A lot of people can't wait. Nine months have passed, and they have waited too long for this result. EASA has suggested that a press conference be held next week, and now just announce the simple survey results directly, but Reid refused. Everyone needs an explanation, and he wants to tell everyone the truth quickly."
The lights in the investigation headquarters went out, and in the end only the one on Zhuo Huan's desk was left.
After writing the accident summary, causes and conclusions, only the final safety recommendations remain.
It was already three o'clock in the morning, and Zhuo Huan suddenly felt a little irritable. He subconsciously reached for the cigarette in the drawer, but only when his hand touched the cigarette box, he stopped and closed the drawer door with a slam.
After strolling around the desks of UAAG members, Zhuo Huan picked up a bottle of yogurt on the desk of Fucheng. After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone, and while inserting the straw into the yogurt hole, he sent a message to Fucheng: [Drink your yogurt. 】
He didn't expect that in the next second, the other party immediately replied: [The strawberry flavored one? It was given to me by Lina in the afternoon. 】
Zhuo Huan, who just drank strawberry-flavored yogurt: "..."
Fucheng: [I don't like the taste very much, so I didn't drink it. You drink it. 】
Zhuo Huan: "..."
Without replying to the message, Zhuo Huan drank the yogurt blankly, and then threw the shriveled yogurt box into the trash can.
He sat back in front of the computer and started typing.
"Four, safety recommendations.
In response to the analysis of this accident, safety recommendations were put forward from three aspects: personnel, organization, and equipment.
1. Staff
(1) Before flying, the pilot suffered a certain amount of mental pressure due to personal debt pressure and emotional pressure. According to a report from NASA’s Human Environment Research Laboratory, middle-aged men who have been mentally oppressed for a long time are more likely to make misjudgments when facing emergencies than similar men who have not been mentally oppressed, and their response to crises will also slow down by 30 %.
(2) When the controller is facing extreme weather..."
Early the next morning, Fucheng and Su Fei came to the investigation headquarters together.
As soon as the two of them reached the second floor, Fu Cheng gave a soft "hush", and Su Fei immediately closed his mouth.
On the old sofa at the corner of the second floor, Zhuo Huan had his feet on the armrests of the sofa, and he casually covered a piece of newspaper on his face, as if he had been asleep for a long time.
They walked to their desk lightly, Su Fei was taken aback, pointed to the thick pile of investigation reports on the desk, and lowered his voice: "So many words, has he finished writing?!"
Fucheng looked up at the desks of every investigator. Without exception, there was a printed investigation report on all desks.
Looking back at the man, Fucheng said, "Well, he's finished writing."
In the afternoon, Zhuo Huan was still asleep, and Lina represented UAAG for him at the press conference held by the Finnish Aviation Agency.
Everyone stayed at the investigative headquarters, watching Lina from the TV set to answer the reporters' questions with ease.
Su Fei murmured: "I reasonably suspect that someone deliberately slept until now and asked Lina to attend the press conference."
Old Joseph laughed, "I doubt it too much."
"Don't doubt, she was originally the spokesperson of UAAG."
Everyone turned their heads, and saw a certain man take down the newspaper that was covering his face. The dazzling sunlight in the afternoon narrowed his eyes, and it took him a while to get used to it. Zhuo Huan sat up straight, and rubbed his hair casually.
Zhuo Huan: "What time is it?"
Fucheng: "Two o'clock in the afternoon."
Seeing Zhuo Huan awake, Fucheng subconsciously looked at the bottle of strawberry-flavored yogurt in his trash can.
Perceiving his gaze, Zhuo Huan was stunned for a moment, then put the newspaper back on his face, lay down and fell asleep.
Su Fei: "Sleep again? Isn't this hungry? I haven't eaten all day."
Fucheng thought for a while: "Teacher Zhuo drank some yogurt, maybe he's not hungry."
Zhuo Huan not far away: "..."
Ah.
At 6:30 in the evening, officials of the Finnish Aviation Agency personally escorted the members of the UAAG to board the plane.
Going back is still first class.
As soon as he got on the plane, Zhuo Huan fell asleep and told the stewardess not to wake him even if he had a meal.
The other four people are full of energy, especially Su Fei.
The plane took off on time at seven o'clock. These days, Fucheng was also a little tired, and an hour later, he passed faintly. Until an exclamation awakened him.
"Fuck, Aurora!"
Fucheng awakened suddenly, he opened the curtain and saw Su Fei sitting by the window on the other side excitedly leaning by the window. Su Fei did not pull the curtain. He turned around and saw Fucheng awake. He also knew that he had woken him up. He quickly made an apology gesture and whispered to him: "Look outside, Aurora. I didn't expect us this time. So lucky to be able to see the aurora before closing the shutter."
Hearing this, Fucheng looked back at his window.
In the dark and quiet night sky, the turquoise aurora resembled a tulle, rippling and flickering in the sky. This light flows quietly in the night, and she is silent, releasing her breathtaking beauty.
This is the first time that Fucheng has seen the aurora through the narrow window of the cabin as a passenger. Unconsciously, he could see, until the stewardess knocked on his door and smiled at him: "Sir, we are going to close the visor when entering the high latitude area."
Fucheng just woke up like a dream.
"Okay, thank you."
The plane's visor was gently closed, and with a click, the extremely brilliant aurora was locked out of the window.
The sound of closing the window was extremely clear and loud in the silent first-class cabin.
The curtain of the first-class cabin separates the five investigators from UAAG, and has a small space of its own. Fucheng looked at the tightly closed visor, and couldn't help but wonder. And he didn't know that in front of him, Zhuo Huan put his hands behind his head, lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling of the cabin, and also never slept.
And the old Joseph, Lina, Su Fei...
Nine months and three days ago, it was also a McFly F435 aircraft. It took off from Tokyo, carrying 234 people, and flew to faraway Finland.
It is said to be the hometown of Santa Claus.
In seat 78A of the economy class, the beautiful newlyweds suddenly noticed the aurora outside the window. She was so happy that she awakened her sleeping husband in surprise. The young faces of the two men were illuminated by the turquoise aurora. Yamada Ami restrained her joy and said in a low voice, "This is the first time I have seen the aurora, and we will definitely get better and better. .When we arrive in Finland, let’s go find Santa Claus together."
The young newlywed husband was wearing a washed, whitish, cheap suit. At that moment, he looked at his wife's happy face. He suddenly felt that the honeymoon trip he had prepared after saving half a year was worth it.
He stroked his wife's unexplained belly and clenched his fists: "Okay! It will definitely get better and better. Even if I eat wakame every day, I can't let you and your baby suffer." After that, he pretended to be difficult. , Pitifully amused his wife: "Can I only eat wakame, can I have some natto..."
Yamada Ami covered her lips, her round eyes smiled into crescent moons.
At the same moment, the beautiful stewardess who was pouring milk for the passengers in the business class preparation room just took out the cup, and heard the colleague next to him whispered in exclamation: "Aurora."
Shanxia Hui turned her head and looked out the window, where several flight attendants had already surrounded her.
"I actually saw the aurora. I rarely take a polar flight. This is the first time I have seen it."
"Even if I often take polar flights, I may not be able to see the aurora, and I only saw it twice."
Yamashita Hui did not join in the fun.
She stood at the small dining table, looking at the magnificent aurora from a distance. After looking numbly for a while, she lowered her head to pour the milk, but her eyes touched her empty left hand.
There is also a shallow mark on the ring finger, where a ring was once worn.
It was under the Tokyo Tower. The man suddenly knelt down and made a lifelong promise to her in front of thousands of tourists.
Her eyes reddened involuntarily, and Shanxia Hui clenched her teeth.
The next moment, she was holding milk and smiling and opened the curtain of the business class.
"Madam, the milk you want."
And at the very front end of this plane, in the cockpit.
The captain smiled and said, "I didn't expect to see the aurora before entering the Arctic Circle."
The deputy captain Maeda Shosuke had no intention of admiring the aurora. He opened the weather report form, checked it from beginning to end, and then meticulously said: "Captain, the weather report says that there is no bad weather in the Arctic Circle. Please rest assured."
Another deputy captain smiled and said, "Maeda-san, don't be so nervous, just relax. Even if you encounter a magnetic storm, don't worry, just make an emergency landing. Come on, and enjoy the gift of nature with us."
Maeda Shosuke: "Hi!" After speaking, he raised his head and looked out the window.
The sky full of aurora reflected in the young man's sincere and strong eyes, making him slightly startled, and murmured the name.
"Hui..."
Like parallel lines that never intersect.
From the moment it started, it was destined to never meet again.
After lying on the bed thinking for a long time, Fucheng opened his eyes wide and couldn't fall asleep. When the stewardess came to ask him if he needed a meal, Fucheng smiled and refused. Before closing his eyes, he remembered the last sentence of Zhuo Huan's investigation report.
"In view of the design problem of the engine MCD magnetic chip detector, it is recommended that Rolls-Royce add an electromagnetic interference device to the MCD magnetic chip detector. 』
With 10,000 words eloquently, there is only one sentence, which is the final outcome.
Just like the McFly F435 they are riding in, it took only one night, and Rolls-Royce installed electromagnetic jammers on the engines of more than 1,000 aircraft around the world overnight.
Each engine only needs five minutes of maintenance personnel.
Only five minutes.
And these five minutes were piled up with blood and tears. It is so simple that it is easy to do, but it has saved countless invisible lives.
"Is this what you mean?"
The dark-haired young man's whispering to himself was drowned in the noise of the aircraft engine.
After flying for ten hours, the five finally arrived at the Shanghai Airport.
It was eleven o'clock in the morning, China time.
After taking the luggage, everyone talked and laughed, and walked to the outside of the airport together.
Fucheng keenly perceives something wrong: ... No one goes to the boarding bridge to connect to the plane?
Zhuo Huan didn't speak all the way. Uncle Zhuo didn't seem to have a good rest on the plane, his face was ugly. Everyone didn't bother to touch him, leaving him alone for the last.
When they walked outside the airport and stood on the side of the road, a few people chatted for a while, and slowly, they finally found out what was wrong.
Su Fei: "Where's the car? Lina, it's been ten minutes, why hasn't the car to pick us up yet?"
Old Joseph: "Yes, what about the car. The plane has arrived late. Why hasn't the car arrived yet?"
Lina smiled perfectly: "Car? What car?"
Su Fei and Old Joseph froze together.
Fucheng, who has faintly sensed the truth: "..."
Su Fei: "No, what does this mean, the car! That's it, come and pick up our luxury car! Rolls Royce! Bentley! Lincoln will do!"
Lina: "Unfortunately, there is no car, but there is a taxi over there, look."
Su Fei: "Oh????!!!"
Old Joseph turned his head, his eyes burning: "Reid, where's the car!"
Zhuo Huan let out an impatient "Ah" and drew his ears: "Where is the car, take a taxi and go home by yourself."
Old Joseph: "...Don't tell me, we are now expelled from UAAG."
Zhuo Huan: "What do you think?"
Su Fei: "Where did that car go? A UAAG special car, a luxury car! A luxury car in one water! UAAG has a lot of money, and Bentley is the last time I go!"
Zhuo Huan sneered: "When did I tell you that UAAG has a lot of money."
Su Fei: "..."
Old Joseph: "..."
Zhuo Huan: "If you have no money, take a taxi by yourself"
Lina smiled and added to him: “In fact, the treatment you enjoyed before was all provided by the Finnish Air Transport Authority and McFlyers. When we officially leave Finland, they will no longer bear our entry and exit costs. And UAAG’s Members’ salaries are calculated separately. As far as I know, there is no “luxury car in and out” item on the payroll."
Zhuo Huan turned his head to look at Lina: "Where to go, take me along the way when you take a taxi, I will be on the same road with you."
Fucheng smiled slightly: "Can you break in?"
Zhuo Huan and Lina looked at him together.
Fucheng: "So it means that UAAG is actually very poor, very very poor?"
Zhuo Huan uttered.
Lina: "Fuck, I'm glad you understand what I mean. It's really easy to talk to you."
Suddenly the words that a man once said in my mind
"It's not a few days, so cherish it. 』
It turned out to be like this.
Fucheng smiled back.
...Very good.
The author has something to say:
so, the UAAG that you think is rich and powerful, in fact...
Su Fei: This is a scam!Fraud!I'm going to resign!I'm going to resign!
