Chapter 30 Tang Mubai boarded the plane
Although Tang Mubai kept quiet, the news that he was going to run away spread like wildfire in the summer camp group.
Many members watched Tang Mubai leave carrying large and small bags, their expressions varying.
People like Zhou Hao and Zhao Zhengmeng, on the other hand, were secretly sighing to themselves.
They were thrill-seeking adventurers who couldn't wait to catch a glimpse of the Dragon Servant's "beautiful face," but Tang Mubai, on the other hand, somehow managed to attract the Dragon Servant's attention right away, only to turn around and run away.
"What a coward."
Zhao Zhengmeng crossed his arms and began observing Tang Mubai and Li Jiule from the moment Tang Mubai entered the buffet restaurant. However, no matter how he looked at them, he couldn't find the quality in Tang Mubai that could attract the dragon servant.
Su Xiaoyi walked gracefully out of the self-service restaurant and slowly approached him.
Today, Su Xiaoyi styled her hair into a high ponytail and wore a light gray and mint green color-blocked quick-drying shirt and pants, with a thin off-white sun-protective skin jacket over it. Looking down her legs, you could see a pair of white high-top hiking boots.
At her waist, she also wore a lightweight medical first aid kit with a striking red cross pattern, making her overall outfit very clean and neat.
Watching Tang Mubai drag his suitcase away, Su Xiaoyi parted her lips slightly and said, "When I first saw the group message, I thought he was faking it, but I didn't expect that he would actually slip away after just one night."
Zhao Zheng glanced at Su Xiaoyi and asked, "How did you know he was leaving? If you hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known he was going to run away."
Just now, Su Xiaoyi sent a message to the summer camp group chat:
[@Tang Mubai - S City University @Li Jiu - S City University, both of you, if you encounter any problems, feel free to talk to me. Avoiding problems isn't the solution. [Image: Suitcase at the entrance of the cafeteria]]
"You mean that message?" Su Xiaoyi rolled her eyes, her eyes sparkling with a pure and innocent charm. "Please, would I be the kind of person to stab someone in the back? Tang Mubai messaged me privately, begging me to say that... I was really helpless to help him. Do you know how much damage that did to my reputation?"
Just before Su Xiaoyi revealed in the group that Tang Mubai was going to open Run, Tang Mubai did indeed send Su Xiaoyi a message. To make it look real, he even thoughtfully edited the message for Su Xiaoyi. And to show his sincerity, he even added a few [Fu Hang learning to bow like a monkey] emoticons at the end.
"Although we don't know his purpose in doing this, he has successfully attracted a lot of attention."
"Perhaps... we know now."
Upon hearing Zhao Zhengmeng's words, Su Xiaoyi was taken aback at first, and then followed Zhao Zhengmeng's gaze to the direction Tang Mubai was moving.
In that direction, a small black dot in the sky was rapidly growing larger.
"A helicopter?" Zhao Zhengmeng's expression changed slightly. "A Sikorsky S-76D? Holy crap, this isn't an ordinary helicopter. Tang Mubai actually rented one to take him away just to show off?"
Su Xiaoyi said, "I don't know about that, but Tang Mubai is the heir of the Tang Group, so he shouldn't do something as low-class as renting a plane."
"The Tang Group?" Zhao Zheng was taken aback. "Which Tang Group?"
"The Tang Group, which packaged the 'Super Fan Seven'."
Zhao Zhengmeng's expression changed slightly, then he revealed an undisguised look of disdain: "That Tang Group, which uses the guise of 'creating Asian superstars' to run a plan involving effeminate men? I scoff, I hate effeminate men the most, especially those who wear foundation."
"Businessmen... well, they're all about profit." Su Xiaoyi smiled noncommittally. Zhao Zhengmeng was a retired soldier, so he naturally disdained such things, but she was still very attracted to good looks. Most of the time, as long as it didn't involve national principles, she wouldn't care too much about appearances.
Of course, she considered herself to be fairly rational, while the market was full of brainless types, who were the ones who could truly destroy a person's reputation.
Despite her laughter, Su Xiaoyi seemed to have thought of something and asked with a hint of curiosity, "By the way, I heard that the Municipal Culture and Tourism Bureau wanted to use drones to take aerial photos of Fulong Mountain, but what happened to that plan?"
Zhao Zhengmeng said, "I'm not entirely sure about that. You could ask Zhou Hao; he's a professional in this area..."
"But besides the professional issues, I also heard that there are strange things in Fulong Mountain. It is said that nothing can fly out from here. The city's cultural and tourism drones can no longer climb after landing at a certain position, and then they all crash. I heard that they tried several times, but they never succeeded. After that, they never used aerial photography again."
Su Xiaoyi's expression changed slightly: "Has no one investigated this issue?"
"Are you talking about investigating Fulong Mountain, or the drones? Fulong Mountain is hard to investigate, but as for the drones..." Zhao Zhengmeng shook his head helplessly and sneered disdainfully, "...no matter how many are scrapped, it'll be settled, and no one will investigate."
As they were talking, the Sikorsky S-76D began its smooth descent.
Upon seeing this, for some reason, Su Xiaoyi subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
……
Tang Mubai left the Mushroom House with bags and packages, and before leaving, he handed the room key to Li Jiu.
Since the number of participants in the summer camp is fixed, canceling the reservation is not realistic. Someone will arrange roommates for him later, but it's hard to say who they will be.
Although the Mushroom House is built in the mountains, it is located at the foot of the mountain, where the terrain is relatively flat. There is also a spacious open space in the direction from here towards Bailongtan.
Therefore, as the flattest spot at the foot of the mountain, Tang Mubai's helicopter would naturally choose that place as its landing point.
The helicopter came to a stop, but the roar of the propellers was still deafening.
The hatch opened, and Li Jiu got a clear look at the driver's appearance.
He was a burly white man in his forties, wearing a dark blue flight suit and reflective sunglasses. His tightly pursed lips and sharply defined jawline made him look like a cold and professional assassin.
He quickly jumped off the plane, walked silently to the luggage compartment door at the side and rear, opened it, and began to help Tang Mubai load his luggage, his movements as decisive as if he were stuffing cannonballs into a cannon barrel.
Once everything was ready, the helicopter gradually started up, its propellers churning the air with a "putt-putt-putt" sound, and the intense wind pressure made Li Jiu almost lose his balance.
The helicopter's deafening noise completely drowned out human voices, so Tang Mubai could only shout at Li Jiu to give him instructions:
"Old Li! I'm leaving! If you have any exciting news, remember to tell me secretly!"
"Okay!"
Li Jiu waved to Tang Mubai. If it weren't for his grandmother's matter, he would probably be in the cabin right now.
Li Jiu stepped back a bit and watched the helicopter take off.
When the propeller accelerated to a certain critical point, the huge roar seemed to tear the air apart. At that moment, Li Jiu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his ears, as if a sharp sound, like a cold metal wire, was drilling into the depths of his ear canal!
He subconsciously tilted his head and frowned.
Strange... Did I just hear something?
Is it an auditory hallucination caused by the engine noise?
still……?
