Although I don’t know why Anne is so rich, and she is so willful that she can buy all the tickets and charter the plane directly, but since Anne has solved the problem by herself, since Anne does not need the three of them to pay out of their own pockets to travel to the public After raising a boat ticket, Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia and Xiaogang were happy to accept the reality. They hugged a lot of things that Xiaozhi had just bought and talked and laughed all the way towards a certain place on the outskirts of the town where it was said to be docked. Walking towards the giant airport with that kind of luxury airship.
However……
When the three of them came to the gate of the very spacious but deserted airport terminal, they looked at the huge thing inside the airport and saw that it was dilapidated and decadent. Most of the paint on the outside of the huge air bag had peeled off. The gondola's rusty metal shell was also exposed, and it was tied to the ground by the same rusty steel cables. It looked like a giant airship like a forgotten giant. After the three of them came together, Qi was dumbfounded.
"I said……"
"Are you sure that big guy can still fly?"
After a long time, Xiaoxia, who was holding Togepi in her arms, asked with some worry.
At the same time, her eyes continued to stare closely at the huge airship parked at the berth in the distance, as if she wanted to take a closer look at it, as if she was trying to determine whether it was what they were going to do next. What kind of transportation are you about to take?
"Don't you think it looks a little old?"
"That thing can really fly?"
Actually, calling it 'old' is actually Xiaoxia's more subtle and euphemistic way of saying it.
Because, in her opinion, it was not as simple as 'old' at all, but rather dilapidated and seriously lacking in care and maintenance!
Anyone with a discerning eye will know that there will definitely be a huge safety hazard, there is no doubt about it!
You know, it is a vehicle that carries people to the sky and flies, but its condition looks so bad. Once there is a malfunction or some safety accident in the air, the consequences will be unimaginable!
"Well……"
"It can definitely fly. After all, it is so big, and the buoyancy of the air is definitely not something to worry about."
"but……"
"Why it looks so shabby I don't know."
"Perhaps they have other airships, and it's not necessarily the one that was just eliminated and abandoned?"
After looking again and again, and looking at the equally embarrassed Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, the oldest and most well-informed Xiaogang, could only wipe the sweat beads on his forehead and said this with a trace of luck and trepidation. .
"Another airship?"
"Really?"
Xiaoxia also hoped that was the case, but she was still a little worried, so she started to look around again.
"But……"
"You can see everything here, where are the other airships?"
However, after looking around, she didn't see any other airships, neither on the ground at the airport nor in the surrounding air.
She only found a few uniformed workers busy listlessly. Some were checking the ropes and certain mechanical parts of the 'old' airship, while others were carrying cargo and supplies. It didn't look like they were arranging another airship for them.
At the same time, she also discovered that the pier was still filled with a touch of new paint and the stench of air mixed with the smell of engine oil. The hardened floors on the ground were also in disrepair, with many broken and cracked places, and more It is the weeds growing in the gaps between the stone slabs on the ground and the areas covered with moss.
Anyway!
There are various signs that it looks like no tourists have been here for a long time, and there are very few ground staff and workers. Judging from their busy situation, it is likely that they had to be dispatched and carried out urgently at short notice. Maintenance work?
"do not care!"
"I'd better go over and ask!"
"Everyone, let's go!"
Xiaozhi was also a little worried about that problem, but since he had drawn the ticket, after thinking about it, he took the initiative to walk towards the two ground staff not far away who didn't know what tools they were repairing. passed.
"!!"
"What?"
"You're the one who wants to take that airship?!"
soon!
When Xiaozhi walked over quickly with the two of them, explained their purpose and asked politely, he looked at the three people in front of him, and looked at the half-grown boy 'Dagan' and the little girl Xiaoxia who followed Xiaozhi with narrowed eyes. , one of the ground staff couldn't help but exclaimed, as if he had seen a ghost.
"That's right!"
"That's it."
"We won the tickets through a lottery, and then one of our companions bought all the remaining tickets and chartered the flight."
"What's wrong with this?"
The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment, and then the anxious Xiaozhi continued to ask.
"this……"
"There is no problem..."
"can only say……"
"You must be brave?"
The two ground staff looked at each other in confusion, then looked left and right. When they found that there was no one else, they reminded the three of them so carefully with a look of embarrassment on their faces.
"courage?"
"Why is traveling on an airship associated with courage?"
"What is this and what is it?"
Although Xiaozhi, who aspires to become the best Pokémon trainer, has always considered himself very courageous and willing to take risks, he still has no idea what the relationship between that kind of thing and flying in an airship is, so he is still a little confused. asked in surprise.
"Uncle!"
"There's something wrong with that airship, isn't it?"
"That's the only airship here?"
Upon seeing this and seeing the hesitant expressions of the two ground staff, Xiaoxia seemed to have thought of something, and then hurried forward and asked in a crisp voice.
"..."
"..."
"All right!"
"Don't ever say that we told you!"
The two people looked at each other and hesitated for a long time. Finally, they approached the three of them thiefly and explained as quietly and covertly as possible:
"You must be from out of town, so you don't know, right?"
"That airship..."
"It was once called the 'unfortunate spaceship'. It is said that there are weird things causing trouble on it, and some terrible things often happen?"
"So, it has actually been out of service for a long, long time. Even the headquarters has almost made up its mind to dismantle it."
"But I never thought..."
"You're here at this time, and you bought all the tickets..."
"Hey!"
"Anyway!"
"Be careful yourselves!"
Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, when he saw two people in aviation uniforms walking towards this side not far away, the two ground staff quickly shut their mouths and hurried over. On the other side, I didn't dare to say another word to the three of them.
"welcome!"
"I kept you waiting!"
"Guests, please go this way."
"The airship is about to take off, don't miss the flight!"
With the arrival and urging of the two flight attendants wearing gorgeous uniforms, sunglasses and exquisite makeup, a loud noise soon broke the tranquility of the airship airport terminal.
"That is……"
"!!"
"Are we ready to take off now?"
Hearing the noise, Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang all looked up, and then saw that the huge and dilapidated airship began to tremble slightly with the rotation of the propeller.
At the same time, as the rope was loosened, each mechanical part began to rotate and made a huge "rattling" sound of metal collisions. It seemed to be alive, and it actually slowly rose and moved?
"Ready to take off!"
"Guests!"
“Get on board now!”
"Please hurry up!"
Seeing this, the two flight attendants did not dare to delay, and without waiting for the three of them to say anything else, they pushed and dragged the three of them towards the boarding gate.
"Now!"
"Passengers, please sit tight, the airship is officially taking off!!"
soon!
As everyone got on the ship, before Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia could react, the two familiar-looking flight attendants quickly closed the cabin door, locked it and disappeared, and then a final sound came from the radio. After the announcement was broadcast, the airship began to rise slowly.
And when Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia, Xiaogang and Pikachu came to their senses and rushed to the porthole of the boarding gate for the first time, they only saw the airship rising higher and higher and slowly leaving. At the same time, the people and buildings on the ground became smaller and smaller, until it stabilized and gradually rose into the white clouds.
"It's amazing!"
"Although it looks a little old, it can really fly!"
"Flying so high!"
Xiaoxia looked at the shrinking land buildings under her feet, feeling extremely excited in her heart, and she couldn't help but praise them again.
Before Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi and others could continue to look at the ground, the airship passed through the layers of clouds and flew above the clouds, ushering in the clear sky and brilliant sun.
"!!"
"so beautiful!"
"yes!"
"It's incredible!"
'Beep! Beep! '
It was only then that Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi, Xiaogang and Pikachu were shocked to discover that this seemingly dilapidated and decadent airship, under the sunlight, its broken and peeling metal skin could still reflect The rays of the sun, but looking out from the cabin, it just feels like it is shining brightly, and it still has an unparalleled and magnificent body?
In this way, everyone stayed at the boarding gate in a daze, and then they were attracted by the high-altitude scenery outside the porthole window, and gradually became intoxicated by it.
Because they saw the blue ocean, endless fields, endless mountains and green vast grasslands in the distance, which they could never see from the ground or low altitude!
At this time, the huge airship shuttled seemingly slowly but extremely fast above the clouds and fog, like a free giant whale, freely heading towards the vast and unobstructed high-altitude 'ocean'. Swimming forward.
…
"Hello!"
|'-')
"How long have you been standing there stupidly, come here quickly!"
(ˊ)
Finally, I don’t know how long it took, when Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi, 'Dagan' and the electric mouse Pikachu were still standing stupidly at the boarding gate and looking at the scenery outside the porthole window, the people on the corridor not far away Anne's little head suddenly poked out from the door of a cabin and waved at them impatiently and reminded them:
"This is the living room!"
(゜▽＾*)
"Although it's a bit broken..."
(*︶*).． .:*
After saying that, Anne shrank back without waiting for the three people to ask.
"ah!"
"It's Annie!"
Seeing this, Xiaoxia exclaimed in surprise at first, and then she quickly came back to her senses. Only then did she finally realize that the three of them had indeed been at the boarding gate for a long time, and then hurriedly greeted everyone to move towards that gate. He walked quickly to the so-called living room.
"Really!"
"I just said, why didn't I see you at the airport? It turns out that you have already boarded the plane?"
"Don't wait for me either..."
Xiaoxia complained a little while walking.
"??"
However, as soon as she walked to the door of the so-called airship living room and stepped in, she was stopped in shock before she could finish her words, and then looked at the astonishing scene in front of her with some confusion:
In the hall, the only things that can be seen are dusty and patched carpets, dilapidated dining tables, walls with peeling paint, twisted and broken chandeliers, cracked glass taped with tape, and the sound of "squeaking" when you walk up it. Squeaky floor spaceship deck?
Anyway!
Although this airship can indeed fly and it does look majestic from the outside, Xiaoxia swears that it is completely incompatible with the luxurious propaganda they have seen from tickets and posters before, and it is completely different. I don’t know why its tickets are still so expensive!
"..."
"..."
"..."
Anyway, although they haven't gone anywhere else, such as to their respective rooms, the huge gap in front of them really made the three of them a little dumbfounded.
"..."
(′～`;)
And of course the same goes for Anne, who was already sitting in the living room at this time!
She had already discovered that this place seemed to her to be in tatters, and it seemed that no one had cleaned and maintained it for a long time. It seemed that someone just came and cleaned it up before taking off.
But fortunately, they only stayed in this place for one day, so Anne didn't mind too much.
"or……"
"Shall we go down and take a ride?"
After standing and watching for a while, the more he watched, the more regret he felt. The more he watched, the more uneasy he felt. Xiaozhi suddenly remembered the words of the two ground staff, so he quickly raised his hand and suggested.
"I agree……"
And after hearing what Xiaozhi said, Xiaogang, who had previously kept saying that Xiang wanted to see the beach, the sea breeze, and the bikini girls quickly, also hurriedly expressed his agreement.
"okay!"
"You're already here, and you've been flying for so long. It's too late for you to change your mind. You'd better find a place to sit down quickly!"
"No matter what, it only takes one day to fly there, so just bear with it."
Xiaoxia also sighed with some resentment, and then she didn't feel like saying anything more. She just persuaded the two of them and then hugged her Togepi and walked to the sofa where Annie was sitting and found a clean seat to sit down. Go down.
"Annie..."
"The money you spent on chartering the plane is probably enough for them to repair the airship."
"I'm afraid they must be very grateful to you now, right?"
Then, as soon as she sat down, she heard a strange noise from the sofa and saw the flakes of skin falling off on the sofa. Xiaoxia couldn't help but sigh again and teased Annie.
The cost of the airship ticket must be higher than the combined cost of taking the car and ferry to the Orange Islands. There is no doubt that otherwise, she would not have thought of crowdfunding a ticket with Xiaozhi Xiaogang and the others before. Out.
Although she didn't know how many tickets Anne had bought in total, judging from the size of the airship, it must be very easy to accommodate dozens or hundreds of guests, and so many tickets must be a lot of money. I'm afraid it really exceeds the value of this broken airship.
"I think……"
"Is it enough to buy it?"
Xiaogang also walked over and sat down, successfully causing the sofa to make another frightening creaking sound.
"This kind of sofa..."
"If you throw it in the trash, no one will want it, right?"
Just sitting down gently made that horrible sound, and then he stretched out his hand and found that his palms were covered with crumbs of skin. This made Xiaogang not know what to say.
"..."
(_)
“It doesn’t matter, as long as we can get to that island quickly!
(˙o˙)
Although this thing is indeed a bit broken, and there may be some minor accidents in the process, Annie is not too afraid of that, and since it has already come, she doesn’t want to mess with it anymore, so she just He waved his hands to show that it didn't matter.
"All right!"
"Then let me look around first?"
"After all, we have to stay here for twenty-four hours, and Annie has spent so much money, but if we can't enjoy luxurious services, it's better to go and enjoy the scenery first!"
Xiaozhi didn't want to sit in this shabby living room and chat with everyone on the same shabby sofa, so he turned around and walked towards the spiral staircase in the corner of the living room, intending to go to the viewing area above the living room. Go to the observation deck to enjoy the fresh air and beautiful scenery at high altitude.
However…..
Crack! !
"!!"
"Ahhhhh..."
With the sound of the wood of the airship deck breaking and shattering, a hole suddenly appeared in the floor in front of the spiral staircase. Then, Xiaozhi disappeared in front of everyone in an instant, leaving only the shrill screams. The screams, which gradually became smaller and smaller, echoed in the dilapidated living room and continued for a long time.
"..."
"..."
Seeing this, Xiaoxia and Xiaogang, who were sitting on the sofa, were of course dumbfounded again, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"What happened?"
After a long time, Xiaoxia subconsciously murmured and asked.
"have no idea……"
The squinting Xiaogang's brain was also a little dull and short-circuited, and he just answered with his somewhat dull voice.
"He seems to have fallen!"
()
Anne was not as slow to react as those two people, so she immediately raised her hand and explained in a crisp voice.
"not good!"
"Ash!!!"
finally!
Hearing Annie's words, Xiaoxia and Xiaogang glanced at each other subconsciously as if they had restarted their computers, and then they were all excited, and then hurriedly rushed to the hole and lay down towards it. Looking down and shouting.
Unfortunately……
They could see nothing except patches of white clouds, some high mountains and the white snow on the high mountains, plus the high-altitude cold wind that was pouring in from the breach.
