In the cockpit, the aircraft's control stick and throttle lever occasionally moved on their own in autopilot mode, making slight sounds.
Qin Zhibo held the flight manual and stared intently at the words on it. His body posture was somewhat like the famous "The Thinker" statue.
If it weren't for the sound of turning pages from time to time, Conan would have thought Qin Zhibo had really turned into a statue.
Conan raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was already 6:30 pm.
Qin Zhibo has been studying for 6 consecutive hours since he started studying at noon, without eating, drinking, talking, or moving.
During this period, Conan re-read "The Whispering in the Night" several times until it was completely boring.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the Mi Go described by "Yusaku Kudo" in this world was very similar to the fungus he saw in the Kiritengu Temple.
In the book, due to the need for mining on the earth, the place where Mi Go is most often found is in the mountains, so local legends can be formed.
And the temple where the foggy dog haunts is not only in the mountainous area, but also has the legend of the foggy dog.
Also, Mi·Ge's body will disappear in the water. It may be washed away by the water, or it may disappear on its own.
For Conan, there are two possibilities now.
One is that "Yusaku Kudo" once encountered those fungi and used them as inspiration to write this story.
Another possibility is that "Yusaku Kudo" knows what those are...
If this happened before, Conan would never believe it.
A fungal alien creature that looks like a red crustacean? And it can also imitate human speech?
Don't be kidding, I'm not playing Masked Superman~
But now, he is in a parallel world, a world that really exists but does not belong to him, so why can't he believe it?
Back to the present, in addition to reading, Conan ate a simple plane meal midway and checked several times to see if Mira had woken up Fujiko Mine.
But the result was not ideal.
…
Sitting in the passenger seat, Conan called up the electronic map and checked it, his expression immediately became serious.
The autopilot route set by Fujiko Mine only navigates to the territory of Vespagna, and requires manual control to fly to a place where the aircraft can land.
And now we are only 10 minutes away from the land of Vespania.
Conan glanced at Qin Zhibo next to him, who was still reading the flight manual and had no intention of ending his study.
Also, it is simply impossible for a normal person to master hundreds of pages of complex knowledge in 6 hours.
And even if you can learn a little bit about it, pure theoretical knowledge is useless. You must carry out actual operations before you can fly an airplane and land it safely.
That's too late……
Conan shook his head, stood up and walked out of the cockpit, opened the hatch and came to the passenger cabin.
"Sister Mira, is she awake?"
Mira slumped on the chair and shook her head.
During this afternoon, she tried all she could to wake Fujiko Mine, including but not limited to shaking her body vigorously, pouring cold water on her face, pinching her inner thighs, opening her eyelids and shining a flashlight on her.
But Mine Fujiko seemed to be out of body. She was still breathing but couldn't wake up.
Conan was also puzzled. The anesthetic prepared by Dr. Ali was unrivaled in the world. When drank directly, it was said that it once caused an unknown voluntary drug tester to fall into an unshakable sleep for more than a week.
Unexpectedly, the medicine this woman took out was comparable to Dr. Ali's.
But now is a life-and-death moment. If Fujiko Mine cannot get up and control the plane, the plane will inevitably crash.
As for the plane crashing, rather than everyone crashing, it was Conan who discovered that there were two parachute bags on the plane.
If nothing else works, the four of them can only abandon the plane and parachute.
But this must be based on the fact that the plane has not yet flown to the city, and only through his own extreme control can the plane crash into the mountainous area without causing casualties.
Did he have to cause such a big disturbance when he first came to this world?
Thinking of this, Conan gritted his teeth, quickly climbed onto the seat with his small body, stepped on the armrests of the seat with his feet, and slapped Fujiko Mine on the face.
Snapped!
"stand up!"
"Get up!"
"I know you're pretending to sleep! Stop pretending!"
Mira next to her was startled by Conan's sudden crazy behavior. Just as she was about to come over to stop him, a stronger voice from behind stopped her.
"Conan!"
"Stop it, come here and fly the plane!"
Conan looked back and saw that it was Qin Zhibo who had finally moved.
Conan hurried to the cockpit. Qin Zhibo had already put on the headset, fastened his seat belt, and sat down in the main driver's seat.
"You..." Conan was surprised. He saw that Qin Zhibo was going to fly the plane himself.
But Qin Zhibo ignored Conan's surprise, and instead stared sternly at the neon lights of the city that were getting closer and closer outside the window.
After a full afternoon of study, Qin Zhibo had learned everything about airplane driving.
By using the skill of [Book Investigation], the knowledge points learned will not be forgotten, nor will it affect understanding.
But as for actual operation, it is another matter.
Especially the buttons on the plane are too complicated. As long as your brain is stuck for a few seconds, you may miss the best landing opportunity.
But fortunately, the weather tonight is very clear and the visibility is extremely high, which is more suitable for landing.
Conan doubtfully sat in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt.
"Even if you can fly a plane now, do you know where the airport in Vespania is?"
This is a very fatal problem. Conan felt that he could not land. Another point was that he did not know where the airport was.
Princess Mila should know that it would be even more troublesome to let her control the position and land at the same time.
Qin Zhibo was silent for a moment, "I don't know..."
But the next second, Lao Qin changed his words and said: "I know now."
"Ah? Do you know or don't know?" Conan was stunned by Qin Zhibo's repeated horizontal jumps.
"If you know, if you know..."
In fact, Qin Zhibo did not know that the plane had not entered the territory of Visbania, and the system's navigator could not view maps of other areas at the current location.
But when the plane entered the airspace, the navigator automatically refreshed the map of Vespania.
"Okay, I'm going to turn off the autopilot..."
Qin Zhibo clicked the button a few times, and the automatic driving mode was released, and the two of them could hold the steering column.
Conan looked at Qin Zhibo's steps and was even more surprised.
Did he really learn it?
The two put their hands on the control column and slowly turned the plane into the city.
Confirm the course direction, adjust the wings, descend the flight altitude, release the landing gear, and then...
Qin Zhibo silently recalled each operation step in his heart, and then operated step by step according to the above content.
During the smooth flight of the plane, an empty field gradually appeared on the edge of the city, and the indicator lights on both sides guided a long runway.
By the time the operation process was over, Conan was already worshiping in his heart.
Unexpectedly, he really mastered the entire process in just one afternoon!
But the next step is the most difficult, which is to aim at the runway according to the descent height and insert it straight in.
This requires empirical judgment...
Conan glanced at Qin Zhibo next to him, and was about to express his thoughts when suddenly a voice came from the radio.
"Hey! Lupine the Third, we are here to serve you wholeheartedly!"
"Fujiko, you're finally here, but I've been waiting for you for too long~"
"I have cleared the runway. After the plane lands, go to the hotel where I am staying and have a good night~"
A monkey-like voice suddenly appeared on the channel, making the atmosphere in the cockpit suddenly less serious.
Qin Zhibo and Conan frowned slightly. They heard the name "Lupine the Third" yesterday when they were checking information. He was the number one monster thief in the world, a man who had been at large since decades ago.
Did Mine Fujiko originally plan to defect to Lupine III?
"Hello? Fujiko, why don't you speak?"
"Hello……"
The monkey voice on the walkie-talkie was unrelenting. In order to avoid being distracted, Qin Zhibo directly chose to turn off the radio.
At this time, the runway was also in front of us, and the aircraft's nose was aimed straight at the central axis of the runway.
Qin Zhibo brought up the telescope field of view, and while observing the height of the runway, he adjusted the dive angle of the aircraft's nose to maintain a gentle descent rate.
"Ready to land..."
"Um."
Qin Zhibo and Conan informed each other. Conan held the steering column with both hands, while Qin Zhibo had to control the joystick and throttle lever at the same time.
"30..."
"20..."
"10..."
Suddenly, the entire fuselage shook, which was normal feedback when the landing gear touched the ground.
The aircraft landed smoothly and taxied for a while. Qin Zhibo opened the speed brake again and entered the deceleration and taxiing stage.
70 knots, 60 knots, 50 knots...
The speed slowly slows down until it is completely replaced by the power provided by the aircraft itself.
Success!
Watching the scenery outside the window slowly panning to both sides, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
It actually landed successfully!
Moreover, the runway was just halfway across, and the whole process was smooth and smooth, making it an extremely standard landing.
This is actually coming from a person who is just improvising!
Although this is a medium-sized aircraft, the difficulty of landing is definitely much lower than that of a large passenger aircraft, but it is a miracle that it can achieve such an effect without a drill for the first time.
Conan looked at Qin Zhibo next to him, narrowed his eyes, and asked suspiciously: "Have you flown a plane before?"
Qin Zhibo turned his head, with a harmless smile on his face.
"Guess~"
Conan: "#¥*@%......"
…
When it slowed down to 18 knots, Qin Zhibo continued to control the aircraft and slowly turned to another runway to stop, feeling relieved.
Although he had a calm expression on his face, he was actually extremely nervous inside.
This is indeed my first time flying a plane. I have never even played "Flight Simulator" before, so I just masturbated...
The plane successfully landed on the runway, and there were not a lot of fire trucks and police cars swarming up like in the blockbusters.
The runway was very quiet, with only the red and green lights flashing.
Because from an outsider's perspective, this was a very ordinary landing, and no one knew that the most noble princess of the Kingdom of Vespania was on the plane.
"Okay, get ready to run away."
Qin Zhibo loosened his seat belt, greeted Conan, and returned to the cabin.
Mira saw Qin Zhibo coming out and shouted excitedly, "Success!"
But Qin Zhibo ignored her and came to Fujiko Mine. He fumbled in the pocket of her stewardess uniform, but only found some Japanese yen change.
"That's it, it's not enough..."
Qin Zhibo originally wanted to blackmail Fujiko Mine for some money when he arrived in Vespania to fund his and Conan's next activities.
Now Fujiko Mine is still in a coma, so he can only do it himself to have enough food and clothing.
At this time, Qin Zhibo remembered that when Fujiko Mine got on the plane dressed as a stewardess, she took a small suitcase.
The suitcase has never been found.
In order to find the rope, I searched most of the places on the plane, except...
"Son, where is the parachute on the plane?"
Conan was startled, when did he gain the identity of a "son"?
But looking at Mira who looked confused next to him, Conan could only answer indifferently.
"it's here……"
Conan had previously looked for a parachute on the plane. Under his instructions, Qin Zhibo found a cover under the carpet in front of the cabin door.
When he opened it, there were indeed two parachutes inside. Under the parachutes was the suitcase Fujiko Mine took on the plane.
There are a lot of women's clothing in the suitcase, most of which are professional suits, probably used by Fujiko Mine when she disguises herself as someone else.
When he opened the inner compartment, he found a lady's pistol, a few bullets, five passport books, two stacks of U.S. dollars, and a power of attorney.
Qin Zhibo put all the U.S. bills into his pocket without hesitation, and then picked up the power of attorney.
【Book Survey√】
Qin Zhibo just glanced at this thin little book and immediately understood the contents.
Above, someone commissioned Fujiko Mine to spend a day in Japan, protect her personal safety, and return Princess Mira safely to the Palace of Vespagna within 48 hours.
The reward for the entrustment is 40 million Vespagna Queen's Dollars, and the entruster is Chis.
Qin Zhibo recalled that the person who served as a guard beside Mira yesterday seemed to be named "Qisi".
Did he hire Fujiko Mine?
In other words, Fujiko Mine has no ill intentions towards Mira...
Qin Zhibo put everything except the dollar bills back into place and opened the hatch.
"Son, come here quickly, we are leaving!"
Conan trotted over and looked back at Princess Mira, who was watching eagerly from behind.
"What about Sister Mira?"
Conan has a sweet mouth. Although Qin Zhibo said he would try not to interfere with things in this world, he really couldn't bear to worry about Mira, who looked like Mao Lilan, staying here alone.
Moreover, the "monkey" on the radio, Lupine III, sensed something was wrong and would definitely rush over to check the situation quickly.
Qin Zhibo thought for a moment and decided to tell Mira the truth.
"Actually, the woman in the cabin was entrusted by Chis to protect you. You just need to follow her."
"That's it, my son and I will take the first step~"
Qin Zhibo hugged Conan and jumped down from the cabin door before the gangway was fully extended.
Looking at the two disappearing people, Mira shook her head with a complicated expression.
