Chapter 1088 Air Disaster

After showing her plane ticket for check-in, Su Xiaoqiang yawned, pulled her suitcase, and followed Lin Nian in confusion with her head lowered. She really didn't sleep well last night.

Light sleep can relieve fatigue at least, but the feeling last night between being asleep and not sleeping, with consciousness floating on the water between blurry and clear, was really painful. I wanted to open my eyes but was tired again. With my eyelids glued shut, sleeping all night felt like staying up all night, which only deepened the already heavy mental burden.

Su Xiaoqiang glanced at the airport on the ground outside the glass of the boarding bridge. From this angle, he could still see the huge engine of the plane. There were two workers who looked like technicians standing under the engine, discussing something with each other. There couldn't be anyone. Throw a coin into it and use the engine as a prayer pool to pray for blessings, right?

Putting aside the unrealistic thoughts, Su Xiaoqiang sighed, rubbed the corners of his eyes and put his heavy head on the back of Lin Nian in front of him. He simply regarded his boyfriend as a guide dog and closed his eyes. Her eyes let him hold her, and she would walk when he walked, and stop when he stopped. Anyway, there was only a straight line on the boarding bridge, and she would not follow him no matter what.

"Are you so sleepy?" Lin Nian felt a little dumbfounded by the heavy little head behind him, but he also led the way responsibly. There was a long queue in front and behind, waiting for the passengers who got on the plane first to put their carry-on luggage.

Su Xiaoqiang leaned against Lin Nian and dozed for a long time. It wasn't until Lin Nian turned his right hand over his shoulder and tapped her on the back of her head that she suddenly raised her head while dragging her luggage and saw a man standing straight in front of the cabin at the end of the boarding bridge. , a Latino flight attendant with her hands folded in front of her and a sweet smile on her face, "Hello, madam, welcome to United Airlines."

Su Xiaoqiang cheered up, dragged her suitcase and followed Lin Nian in. She took out the ticket with her left hand and checked the seat number on it. She stopped in the middle. Lin Nian beside her helped her with one hand. The suitcase was picked up and stuffed into the storage box above.

Su Xiaoqiang got inside and sat down by the window. He adjusted the seat. Lin Nian sat next to him and leaned against the aisle. Due to the model of the aircraft, this passenger plane used seats second from the left, third in the middle, and second from the right. Chair Division.

Su Xiaoqiang glanced to the right, jumped over and walked to the three rows of seats in the middle. Sitting on the three rows of seats were Xia Mi, Chu Zihang and Su Qian. Chu Zihang was sitting in the middle and was writing something before the captain prompted him to turn off his phone. .

Susie, who was sitting on his left, lowered her head and held a reading magazine found in the back pocket of the front seat. She opened it on her knees and read it quietly to pass the time. Regarding the distance and angle, Su Xiaoqiang could not see clearly. Clear the cover of that book.

Su Qian seemed to be particularly sensitive to the gaze directed at her. She turned around and found that Su Xiaoqiang was looking at her with her head tilted. She glanced down at the book on her lap and then realized what she was looking at. She smiled faintly and raised her hand. He lifted the cover of the book and faced her.

Su Xiaoqiang saw the title of the book clearly, "Weak Women Become Ugly First". It sounded like selling anxiety, and she didn't know if the content was serious or something. On the plane, you can always find it in the pocket of the seat back. I found this weird book.

Susie also turned it over and showed her the pages inside. She found that someone had carefully sketched and annotated them with a ballpoint pen. She didn't know whether it was the original owner of the book or someone who had actually read the book. Since the passengers have studied it so carefully, why not just buy the book? Airlines should be very willing to sell their passengers such a favor, right?

When Su Xiaoqiang looked away, she found that Xia Mi, who was sitting on the right side of Chu Zihang, was lying on the seat and looking at Xia Wang in the back seat. He was seriously explaining to his "brother" some precautions on boarding, such as not messing around. You can't run, you can't open your mouth and scream, you can't cry when you're frightened by the airflow, you have to endure it.

Xiawang sat upright with his hands on his knees, listening seriously. Fingel beside him rolled his eyes, as if he was in pain because he got a bad seat, but he still had to take care of the child. Lance on his left Lott comforted Xia Mi and said that he would keep an eye on Xia Wang. Xia Mi then turned around with confidence and started harassing Chu Zihang after thanking him.

Because Su Xiaoqiang was very close to Xia Mi, if you listened carefully, you could vaguely hear what Xia Mi was saying.

"Senior brother, didn't you have to turn off your phone when you get on the plane? What are you still doing?"

"Write a letter home."

"Letter home?"

"Written to my mother, telling her that the school needs to go to Bei'an for study tours. This can explain why my position appears in Bei'an. By the way, I want to ask her if there is anything she needs me to buy for her. I remember her She really likes Bei'an's 'Beijing Eight Pieces', she likes those snacks with local characteristics, as well as those ancient costumes such as palace maid clothes."

"Wow, senior brother, you are so filial. But speaking of food in Bei'an, senior brother, have you ever tasted bean juice?"

"No. But I heard that the taste is very unique. I did some strategies before setting off."

"Then senior brother, you must try it! Eating soybean juice and charring rings together tastes amazing! Like snacks, there are also bean yoghurt, Kyoba flavor, peanut crisps and other hot dishes. You have to try the lamb scorpion and squid. BJ Roast Duck, the biggest difference between the roast duck there and other places is that it has a lot of oil! It’s full of hot oil in one bite.”

"."

Xia Mi was still working on being her Beitong. Chu Zihang just listened silently, pressed send of the edited email, and then adjusted his phone to airplane mode. Su Qian watched quietly on the side. Reading, from time to time I would catch a glimpse of Chu Zihang and Xia Mi out of the corner of my eye.

"There are so many sins." Su Xiaoqiang retracted his gaze and whispered.

"What sins are there?" Lin Nian heard and asked.

"Nothing." Su Xiaoqiang turned away and looked at where the others were sitting.

Lu Mingfei and Ling were sitting at the rear of the plane, away from everyone else. They were sitting by the window, so they should have a pleasant journey, so there was no need to worry too much. Wei Lewa got the lottery and was sitting alone at the front of the plane. Su Xiaoqiang looked up and found that she was also looking over here. The two met their eyes and said hello to each other before sitting down. Got off.

Su Xiaoqiang sat down in her seat and closed her eyes. She could always think of the footsteps of passengers in the aisle and the collision of luggage. She didn't know why she was upset. She opened her eyes and looked at the porthole again. The outer wings and engines were stunned for a while.

"Thirteen hours, have a good sleep." Lin Nian noticed that Su Xiaoqiang was in a daze and whispered to her.

Su Xiaoqiang nodded, turned his back to Lin Nian and faced the porthole. With his right hand, he quietly took out a small plastic medicine tablet that had been cut into pieces with scissors from his pocket. His nails pierced the medicinal PTP aluminum foil on it. He poured out this small white pill and held it in his hand.

After doing this small action, she raised her hand and pressed the call bell. The flight attendant came over and asked if she needed anything. She simply asked for a glass of warm water and asked Lin Nian if he needed it. The latter shook his head and said that he was not thirsty. Anyway, he would be in a while. Flight attendants will also spray water on seats next to each other.

When the warm water was delivered, Su Xiaoqiang thanked the flight attendant, then he bent the five fingers of his right hand with the pills hidden in it to grab the water glass. The pills in his palm also fell into the water under the obstruction of his vision. After finishing all the preparations, she naturally picked up the water glass and drank the water and medicine in it.

After the warm water entered his stomach, Su Xiaoqiang also relaxed a lot. He took out the steam eye mask that Veleva had given him before and took it apart. He studied this interesting gadget and prepared to wear it on his face and rest for the whole journey.

Lin Nian, who had been sitting silently next to him, suddenly said, "Alprazolam or diazepam?"

Su Xiaoqiang's movement of removing the blindfold stopped, and he looked up at Lin Nian. He found that the other person didn't seem to be unhappy, so he said, "It's alprazolam. The doctor said that you can sleep well after taking it."

"How long have you been eating? Why didn't you tell me?"

"No, I just started eating." Su Xiaoqiang pulled off the eye mask and took off the ear straps, "I only took half a month's supply. Teacher Masashi Toyama said that I tend to be a little anxious, so he prescribed some medicine to help me sleep, so as not to delay Bei Gan's actions.

"People nowadays are a little anxious." Lin Nian sighed slightly.

"Are you anxious too?" Su Xiaoqiang was a little happy, as if she had found a patient friend.

"I don't know if I am anxious, but Masashi Toyama thinks I am, and I am still severely anxious. I have never told anyone because I am not well yet." Lin Nian said, "Don't be too afraid, the executive department Li is basically a specialist who has more than three field experiences and has some degree of violent tendencies, moderate to severe anxiety, and symptoms of PTSD. Alcoholism and vengeful ingestion of cigarettes are relatively mild symptoms."

"Didn't it say that the executive department commissioner is not allowed to drink alcohol?" Su Xiaoqiang was a little surprised.

"Rules are just rules. It's too easy for a well-trained commissioner to hide some of his secrets, especially secrets that won't affect others." Lin Nian said, "If you really can't sleep, just eat some." , but don’t get addicted.”

"Alprazolam can be addictive?"

"There will be some drug dependence. In severe cases, you can't sleep without these sedatives. Long-term consumption will definitely increase the pressure on liver and kidney metabolism. Eat as little as possible."

"It is indeed not very comfortable. I had a headache when I was in the terminal. I could feel very sleepy, but when I closed my eyes, my consciousness was very clear. It was a very contradictory feeling." Su Xiaoqiang said.

"Get some rest." Lin Nian said after looking at her for a few seconds.

Su Xiaoqiang nodded, but he had already taken the medicine, so he might as well take advantage of the medicine's effect and have a good sleep. Lin Nian took out a pair of noise-cancelling earplugs from his bag and said, "Putting these on, the effect is particularly good. It can minimize artificial noise and mechanical noise."

Su Xiaoqiang put on her earplugs, exhaled and looked at Lin Nian. Lin Nian kissed her hair gently to indicate that she could rest, and then she closed her eyes and rested honestly.

The effect of the drug came on quickly. She had taken drugs similar to tranquilizers before, but this was the first time for her to take alprazolam. Perhaps because she was not drug-resistant, this anti-anxiety drug seemed to be particularly effective for her.

The distracting thoughts in my mind were quickly cleared. It was a wonderful feeling. My muscles began to relax, my whole body began to relax, and my chest became less stuffy. The thoughts that had been difficult to control before have now disappeared. The sleepiness of anticipation slowly crawled out from the deepest cave in my mind, spreading like wild vines throughout my body, suppressing those anxious and insecure parts.

I don’t know how long it took, maybe three minutes, maybe thirty minutes.

She felt some inertial push on her back, probably because the plane started to accelerate, but she couldn't hear much noise in her ears. The anti-noise headphones Lin Nian put on her were indeed used, and she could only hear the hiss of some meager airflow. Voice.

Amid those snake-like hisses, she fell into a deep sleep.

The black tide covered Su Xiaoqiang's ankles, thighs, and waist as she fell asleep, gradually wrapping her in a warm and moist feeling. She doesn't feel suffocated, but feels as safe as returning to her mother's womb, as if there are countless hands kneading her originally stiff and tight muscles.

The sound of the tide rises and falls in my ears, soothing and beautiful.

Among the sounds of water flow, she vaguely heard other sounds, like the jets of a giant whale emerging from the water. She seemed to really see the black tide. A huge silhouette jumped above her head, drawing an arc. It hit the water with a deafening bang!

The huge water surged forward, enveloping the dazed Su Xiaoqiang and rushing her into the whirlpool-like undercurrent. However, in the black tide, a hand suddenly grabbed her hand and fixed her in it. Original!

Is this a nightmare?

Su Xiaoqiang looked up at the person who caught him in the darkness, and sure enough he saw Lin Nian's face. It was just not as gentle as usual, but rather ferocious and full of sharp scales and bony protrusions!

The explosion exploded in my ears again!

Su Xiaoqiang opened her eyes suddenly. All the sound of the tide in her ears disappeared completely. Endless fire and light came into her eyes. The earplugs in her ears were squeezed out by the strong wind. There was a huge roar of air and the screams of the crowd. Howls sounded in her ears!

Su Xiaoqiang's consciousness surfaced instantly. A large amount of air was sucked into her nasal cavity, but what she smelled was the pungent smell of fuel and burnt stench! The earplug that fell off flew past her eyes. She followed the earplugs that flew past her eyes and saw a scene that made her hair stand on end!

"Hold my hand! Don't let go!" Lin Nian's roar brought Su Xiaoqiang back to her senses instantly. She found that her whole body was suspended in the air! She was being pulled up in the air by the huge pressure difference and violent airflow. If Lin Nian hadn't caught her, she would have been swept out of the plane!

Her heart stopped for a moment, and she looked down at the vertical direction of her feet.

I don’t know how long it had been since the plane took off. The right side of the fuselage, the side where she originally sat by the window, had a huge crack in the supposedly solid fuselage. The aluminum-magnesium alloy skin outside the fuselage looked like paper. They were also torn apart one by one by the strong winds high in the sky, and were swept into the vortex by the air current and thrown thousands of meters into the sky!

The right wing that was supposed to be a complete wing was missing half of it and was burning fiercely. The only remaining engine made a terrifying groaning sound in the fire as the steel reached its limit!

Lin Nian, who was covered in scales and armor and looked like a pale armor, stepped on the only seat left. With his right hand, he slowly dragged Su Xiaoqiang back from the crack in the plane. He didn't use too much force. Because I would worry about breaking or dislocating the girl's hand.

When Su Xiaoqiang was dragged back, he saw that the entire cabin was in chaos. There were seats burning, a charred corpse with an iron plate inserted into the chest was tightly tied to it by a seat belt, and a large number of suitcases were tilted into six. The ten-degree aisle rolled and slid wantonly, and the scattered pages of books and leaflets either clung to the walls of the plane and trembled, or flew wildly among the crowd.

Everyone on the plane, which was shaking like an earthquake, was roaring and screaming hysterically. While they were stabilizing their bodies, they were doing their best to survive! The pupils of each of them are golden, which means that they are all mixed races, but even the mixed races look so weak and powerless on the crashed plane at an altitude of 10,000 meters!

Su Xiaoqiang looked above his head and noticed that near the nose of the plane, Fingel was grabbing a protruding steel pipe with one arm, holding Veleva in his left hand, and clamped his legs around the waist of Xia Wang, who looked confused! But Chu Zihang, Xia Mi and Su Qian were not seen!

When her thoughts were confused, Lin Nian pulled her to her side and hugged her waist. She found that Lin Nian had entered the state called 'violent blood'. The signs of dragon transformation all over his body made his sharp claws dig into his feet like hooks. Stabilizing their bodies in the iron sheet of the plane, even if occasionally broken pieces of iron from the fuselage whizzed towards them, they would still be thrown out of the plane's hollow by being thrown away in mid-air!

"What should we do now?" Su Xiaoqiang yelled as hard as she could. She skipped the question "what happened?" and figuring out the cause was not the main problem now.

Just when Su Xiaoqiang shouted this sentence and before Lin Nian had time to answer her, she noticed from the corner of her eye that a crack was spreading rapidly in the aisle of the plane, and soon connected the left and right sides.

Her pupils dilated instantly, realizing what was going to happen next.

The next moment, the place they were standing sank suddenly, and the Boeing plane broke into two pieces with a huge sound of steel tearing. The plane, which was still flying diagonally in a straight line, lost its rear half, and the front half was carrying The engine nacelle rose up, and the rear section of the nacelle lost power and fell off!

Su Xiaoqiang suddenly shouted at Lin Nian, and raised his hand to point at the fallen back half of the plane!

Due to inertia, the distance between the two halves of the plane did not stagger instantly, but now it is also staggering a gap at an alarming speed. The engine on the left side of the first half of the plane is still intact, and it is still providing power to the first half of the plane. Provide an acceleration, and soon the second half of the cabin will be forgotten by them and start to fall freely!

Where Su Xiaoqiang pointed, the cabin that began to fall in the second half began to tilt vertically with the ground, and everything in the aisle was thrown to the rear. In the second half of the plane, Lu Mingfei, with red and golden eyes, was holding his thigh. Zero, with an iron piece inserted into it, jumped and ran towards them crazily on the airplane aisle that was tilted almost 70° vertically!

Every time Lu Mingfei stepped on the seat fixed in the aisle, he tried his best to use his strength to jump and sprint towards them. Around him were countless people with twisted and ferocious faces due to fear and desire to survive. He grabbed onto the seat and climbed up, trying to climb out of the falling abyss, wailing and screaming as he rushed toward them.

"Hurry up!" Su Xiaoqiang couldn't help but yell.

The next second, Su Xiaoqiang suddenly found that everything had slowed down, the flow of air, the whistling of air currents, and the wailing of the crowd. That was the beginning of 'Time Zero', but before she had time to rejoice, the field was still expanding in an instant. It was like glass that had been broken by something sharp!

Su Xiaoqiang heard Lin Nian let out a dull roar. It was obvious that this was not the first time he tried to release 'Time Zero'!

Then it should be OK if it's 'moment'.

The moment this idea surfaced, Su Xiaoqiang's expression froze because she realized that Lin Nian was protecting her now, and the 'moment' only worked on Lin Nian. If Lin Nian accelerated, he would not be able to withstand the pressure. , Lin Nian couldn't let himself go alone in this situation!

Thoughts flashed by, and Lu Mingfei's explosive power was astonishing. He had already rushed to the break, stepped on the vertical break, and jumped towards the cabin of the first half of the plane. The gap between the two quickly separated cabins was now Close to ten meters! Below the chasm is an altitude of 10,000 meters! But this time Lu Mingfei jumped completely beyond the limits of human beings, and reached a level that is difficult for ordinary mixed-race species to reach! He can do it!

At this time, in mid-air, a sharp piece of aircraft skin rolled and cut towards Lu Mingfei, who was holding Zero. But Lu Mingfei could no longer care about these details. He stretched out his right hand and tried to grab the upper half of the cabin. The cracked platform, but if the movement trajectory of the robot is not blocked, it will directly cut him off at the waist!

In an instant, Lin Nian accelerated his speed, raised his hand to grab a suitcase that was sliding by his feet, raised his arm, and his scale-covered muscles expanded and threw it violently. The suitcase made a huge boom as if it was being thrown. A cannonball directly knocked the iron sheet away!

But unfortunately, the cracked wreckage of the suitcase actually hit Lu Mingfei's shoulder in mid-air, breaking his original ascending state.

Lu Mingfei seemed to realize that he might not be able to reach where Su Xiaoqiang and the others were, and suddenly roared in the air. Due to the loud noise and airflow, no one heard what he shouted, and then Su Xiaoqiang found that he did not hesitate to Ling Fengli threw it up in his arms!

Zero was thrown out by Lu Mingfei's superhuman force, and crashed directly into the aisle of the upper cabin like a lead ball. While she was still conscious, she raised her hand to grab the leg of a seat, and her arm was suddenly hit by He straightened and stopped his body, and at the same time, he immediately lowered his head and looked at Lu Mingfei, who was falling rapidly into the sky outside the broken cabin.

But after throwing out the suitcase, Lin Nian had already rushed down with Su Xiaoqiang on flat ground. On the way, he tore off an exposed cable beside him and threw it towards Lu Mingfei with all his strength!

Lu Mingfei saw the flying black shadow in mid-air, grabbing the air like a drowned man trying to grab straw, and the cable hit him hard and got entangled in his flailing arm!

Lu Mingfei stopped falling in the air and held on to the cable. Lin Nian at the other end held Su Xiaoqiang with his right hand, crossed his legs and stepped on the two seats on the left and right of the aisle, and wrapped his left hand around the cable to hold on. , hanging Lu Mingfei outside the broken cabin like a kite, and kept stirring the cable on his arm to drag Lu Mingfei up from the outside bit by bit!

The moment Lu Mingfei was dragged onto the plane, the second half of the falling cabin suddenly exploded violently and turned into a blazing fireball. The roar and air waves almost caught up with the first half of the plane, causing Su Xiaoqiang to become deaf in both ears. .

In her dizziness, she saw Lu Mingfei being quickly pulled back by Lin Nian, and then the two began to roar against the roaring wind in an attempt to communicate. Judging from the shape of his mouth, Lu Mingfei should be asking Lin Nian where Chu Zihang and the others were. Lin Nian loudly replied that Chu Zihang and Xia Mi were in the captain's cabin.

Maybe Chu Zihang and others wanted to see if they could salvage the plane when the accident happened. They haven't come back yet, but judging from the current situation, they should have failed. Only half of the plane's engines were left. It is about to be reimbursed. It is almost impossible to save the aircraft under such circumstances.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Nian immediately yelled for Lu Mingfei to take Ling to follow him, saying that they must meet up immediately so that he could take everyone out of here.

But just as he was saying this, Su Xiaoqiang suddenly turned around and saw the direction of the captain's room above his head. Susie and Lancelot rushed out and yelled something at them.

Lin Nian seemed to realize that something worse was about to happen. He suddenly raised his hand and pulled Lu Mingfei to his side, and pounced on Ling not far away. He seemed to have no longer cared about the synergy that "Snap" would give him. What kind of harm did the person bring? He immediately started accelerating and rushed towards the two people.

Su Xiaoqiang also realized that Lin Nian seemed to be trying his best to gather everyone together. It seemed that as long as everyone was by his side, he could find a way to save everyone?

But the next second, Su Xiaoqiang felt another roar while moving at high speed. It was the flames and shock waves generated by a secondary explosion. The explosion point happened to be in the captain's cabin!

Did Lin Nian catch Susie and Lancelot? Are Chu Zihang and Xia Mi dead in the captain's cabin? Why was Lin Nian's words and spirit unable to prevent this disaster from happening, and why was he helpless in the disaster?

She received no further answers to these doubts.

Because she woke up.

—

Su Xiaoqiang opened her eyes and subconsciously raised her hand to grab the person next to her.

She took a sharp breath, then choked herself, and coughed violently, but she didn't dare to let go of the strength of her right hand.

After nearly coughing herself to death due to lack of oxygen, she finally regained her breath and raised her head.

What caught her eye were Lu Mingfei and Fingel, who were looking at her blankly. She looked around and found that Chu Zihang, Susie, Lancelot and others were all looking at her.

This is the departure hall of Chicago International Airport, with people coming and going around. Outside the huge glass curtain wall, strong winds are blowing on the tarmac, grass seeds are flying, and the canvas is shaking.

Next to Su Xiaoqiang, Lin Nian, whose sleeves were being pulled tightly by her, was also slightly startled. He looked at the pale and sweaty girl and didn't know what to say.
