Chapter 527: Helicopter Service
Ding!
“We will be arriving at Yang City in two hours.”
An announcer spoke on the speaker shortly after Yuan stopped using his divine sense.
“Only two hours left, huh? I cannot wait.” Yuan laid on the bed, feeling like it’s been forever since he last breathed fresh air.
And for the last two hours, Yuan decided to order the entire menu available on the airplane and indulged himself in their food.
Two hours later, the plane began descending back to the ground.
Once they landed, Yuan took a seat in the wheelchair and waited until Meixiu pushed him outside.
“Thank you for flying with Royal Airlines.” The flight attendants bowed to them as they left the airplane and into Yang City’s airport.
Meixiu then led Yuan outside the airport and into the unknown streets before taking a taxi to the Jaded Garden.
“We’d like to go to the Jaded Garden,” Meixiu said to the driver after entering the taxi with Yuan, who immediately turned to look at them with a baffled look on his face.
“You want to go to the Jaded Garden?” The man asked her again for confirmation, almost as though he couldn’t believe it.
“Yes, is there anything wrong with that?”
The man nodded and said, “You won’t be able to enter the Jaded Garden in any vehicle that doesn’t fly. Despite its name, it’s actually in the middle of a mountain valley 8 hours away from Yang City. I can get you close to that place, but I cannot enter the mountain range.”
“Is that so… What should we do?” Meixiu asked Yuan.
Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking, “You said any vehicle that doesn’t fly, which means we can take a plane or helicopter there, right? Are there any services that allow us to travel on helicopters?”
“There is one three hours away from this place, but it won’t be cheap.”
“Can you take us there instead?” Yuan said.
“Sure thing. The fee will be…”
After paying the driver the fee for the trip, the taxi driver immediately stepped on the pedal and began driving them.
About three hours later, they arrived at this tall building with multiple agencies working inside.
“Thanks a bunch.”
Once they left the taxi, Meixiu entered the building with Yuan still in the wheelchair.
“Hello, how may I help you?” The receptionist waved at them the moment she noticed them.
Meixiu approached the receptionist and said, “Good morning, I heard there’s a helicopter service here?”
“Yes, that’s correct. Where are you trying to go?”
“Jade Garden.”
“Jaded Garden, huh? It’s not that far away, but due to the high terrains and foggy environment in that place that makes it difficult to traverse even in the air, the price will increase exponentially. If you’re okay with that, please fill out this piece of paper and we’ll get to you.”
Meixiu took the paper and looked at its contents that asked for their basic information.
“What should I do? Should I use an alias?” Meixiu asked Yuan for advice.
“I think you can use my real identity since I am basically a nobody here,” Yuan said.
“Okay.”
Meixiu then filled out the paper using Yu Tian’s identity that has long been forgotten. Furthermore, even if they somehow link Yuan to Yu Tian, they won’t be able to find him unless they speak with the Yu Family or those that know his identity.
“Here you go.” Meixiu handed the paper back to the receptionist after filling it out.
“Thank you. Please give me a minute to calculate the price of the trip. Also, will this be a one-way or a round trip? If you choose a round trip, we will land and stay at a certain location until you return. However, you’ll have to pay a certain fee for every single day we wait.”
“We’ll do a round trip. If we no longer need the service, can we cancel the round trip?” Meixiu asked.
“Of course, but you’ll still have to pay the fee depending on how many days you made the pilot wait regardless if you return or not.”
“That sounds good.” Meixiu nodded.
The receptionist then took a couple of minutes to calculate the cost.
“The total amount will cost 50,000 dollars for a round trip, not including the waiting time. The waiting fee will be 1,000 dollars for every 24 hours we wait at that location.”
“Here.”
Meixiu placed their debit card on the desk without any hesitation despite the ride costing a whopping 50 thousand dollars.
Clearly, that amount of money wasn’t enough to make her even raise an eyebrow.
The receptionist gladly accepted their card and charged them 50,000 dollars.
“I have notified the pilot of your ride. It should be ready within 2 hours. Please wait in the guest room until then. It’s that room over there.” The receptionist pointed to the room at the end of the hall.
Meixiu and Yuan proceeded to wait inside the guest room until their ride was ready.
A little over two hours later, the receptionist knocked on the door before entering their room with a blonde middle-aged man wearing a uniform.
“Hello, esteemed guests. Your ride is ready, and he will be your pilot.”
The middle-aged man greeted them with a smile on his face, “My name is Jean. I have over 20 years of experience, and I have traveled to the Jaded Garden over 100 times in my career without a single accident, so you can rely on me.”
Meixiu and Yuan then followed the pilot to the back of the building, where there was a large empty field alongside a couple of helicopters idling inside a hanger.
The helicopter they were going to ride was already prepared and was waiting for them to board in the middle of the track.
After boarding the helicopter, the pilot took a few minutes to explain some rules to them.
“Do you guys have experience with helicopters?” Jean asked them after explaining the rules.
“Yes, we do.” Meixiu nodded.
“I figured. Then let’s go. We should arrive at the Jaded Garden in an hour.” Jean said as he operated the helicopter, taking them into the air.
