Chapter 17: Earthquake?

~8 min read 1,530 words

Watching the video, Fujimasa Hiroshi wore an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

At this moment, the video was playing, showing how Kamikawa Mitsu, as if one with the machine, sensed the airflow and piloted the plane along the current to prevent damage to the right wing.

Fujimasa Hiroshi's spirit trembled, and he stood frozen in place:

"Is this something a human could fly?"

That skill was nothing short of divine!

In fact, regarding the NH137 incident, although Mori Takeshi had spoken to the public in detail about the dangers NH137 endured, Fujimasa Hiroshi did not fully believe the other man's words, thinking there was exaggeration involved, feeling that the other man had added his own emotional coloring to the account and magnified the dangers.

It was for this reason.

He did not admire Kamikawa Mitsu's piloting skills too much, believing that if he were Kamikawa Mitsu, he would have done better.

However.

After seeing "Archive--NH137", Fujimasa Hiroshi finally understood.

Mori Takeshi had not exaggerated!

In fact, Mori Takeshi had even omitted some dangers.

From the video, the dangers NH137 endured were heart-stopping.

One wrong step meant death!

At the same time, Fujimasa Hiroshi also realized just how awesome Kamikawa Mitsu's piloting skills were.

As a ace pilot of the Hamamatsu Base, Fujimasa Hiroshi admitted his own skills could not even catch up to Kamikawa-kun's.

He understood clearly that if Kamikawa Mitsu had not been on board NH137, everyone on the plane would have been dead!

Even if he himself had been on board, it would have been useless.

When the video played the scene of Kamikawa Mitsu drifting the plane.

Fujimasa was so shocked he could not speak.

Just at that moment.

With a creak, the bathroom door opened, and Shixi Jian walked out after showering.

Seeing this.

Fujimasa Hiroshi waved repeatedly at Shixi Jian, and due to his agitated emotions, his speech was slurred.

"Ken, come quickly, come quickly, my, my heavens, come look quickly."

"Look at what?"

Shixi Jian did not understand.

Fujimasa Hiroshi spoke without hesitation:

"Look at the Machine God! This is truly an ace pilot! Come look quickly!"

Shixi Jian: "????"

Shixi Jian, who did not understand, was dragged to watch the video.

Not long after.

"This Machine God!" Shixi Jian's eyes were wide with shock, and he inexplicably felt a sense of inferiority.

Compared to the other man's skills, his own skills, which he had been proud of, were no different from shit.

"By the way, is the video real or fake? This piloting skill is out of this world! Wait, isn't this NH137? Who filmed this?"

Shixi Jian saw the video title and the person piloting in the video.

Suddenly he realized, wasn't this Kamikawa Mitsu?

As the words rang out.

Fujimasa Hiroshi slapped his own head hard: "Damn! You didn't mention it, and I forgot the main matter! Quickly, Ken, come with me to report to Air Marshal Suzuki!"

Regardless of whether Shixi Jian was willing or not, Fujimasa Hiroshi grabbed Shixi Jian and ran out of the dormitory.

He did not notice that Shixi Jian was only wearing a bathrobe.

The matter was urgent; there was no time for further delay.

"Hiroshi, I haven't even put on clothes yet! What the hell! What are you going to report to Air Marshal Suzuki about?" Shixi Jian, who had not seen the full video, was confused and frustrated.

Running on the way to report.

Fujimasa Hiroshi did not look back and spoke quickly.

"NH137 might not have been an accident, but something man-made."

"What did you say?"

On the other side.

The video "Archive--NH137" was spreading as time passed.

Everyone who had seen the video was shocked, terrified, and so scared their scalps went numb.

They had heard that NH137 had experienced many dangers, and they had even seen the content of Mori Takeshi describing the crisis of NH137 encountering danger.

However, the matter was ultimately just something they had heard.

They had not personally experienced the dangers.

Therefore, they could not imagine how dangerous the dangers NH137 encountered were; they only had a concept of danger in their hearts.

But once the "Archive--NH137" video came out, the result was different.

Watching the video, Captain Hase was killed by a bird's beak, and the scene was in slow motion.

Watching the video, the fear experienced by the plane's passengers, the rolling of the cockpit.

Watching the video, the left wing of the plane icing over and sustaining damage, the engine almost freezing and stopping operation.

Watching...

All dangers appeared before his eyes, vivid and clear.

This was not a verbal description, but a true visual record.

Those watching the video did not need to imagine for themselves to know how dangerous the danger was; it was as if they were there in person.

Accompanied by the video being reposted to major forums...

The internet boiled over!

A vast number of Japanese netizens discussed the dangers of NH137 on their phones and computers.

All were in heated discussion, with topics like "The dangers NH137 actually experienced were so terrifying."

In less than a short while.

Searches on Yahoo for "File--NH137" grew at an astonishing speed, quickly becoming the number one trending search, far ahead of the second place, with a search volume exceeding it by a significant margin.

The heat was unmatched at that moment!

Clearly it was evening, time for sleep, yet those who scrolled to the video sat up in bed in shock, unable to sleep.

One by one, they excitedly conversed with netizens and friends about the video, sharing their views.

After discussion and analysis.

Everyone, like Fujihiro Masaji, was surprised by the video's authenticity, how it was filmed, and who filmed it.

A very small minority, from the video's content, detected clues and speculated that the NH137 accident might have been man-made.

At this moment.

Kamikawa Mitsu knew nothing about the video trending on the hot search as he walked home.

Walking along, his steps suddenly stopped.

Kamikawa Mitsu raised an eyebrow and looked down at the ground.

The small pebble by his foot, quite magically, was jumping on its own, while he... was clearly standing still, making no movement, yet his body was swaying slightly.

"Earthquake?"

He could feel the ground trembling lightly, vibrating slightly.

Kamikawa Mitsu looked toward the flower pots placed by residents along the street; the leaves were shaking, and the flowers swayed without wind.

All these signs indicated an earthquake.

Confirming it was an earthquake, Kamikawa Mitsu's expression did not change; he took another step and walked home.

Japan is a country with many earthquakes; earthquakes are very frequent. How frequent? According to statistics, the total number of major and minor earthquakes in Japan averages over 1,000 times per year.

Therefore, Kamikawa Mitsu was not surprised by the occurrence of an earthquake.

Judging by the amplitude, it was just a small earthquake, of no consequence.

A short while later.

Tokyo, Japan, Arakawa Ward, Kamikawa Mitsu's home.

Kamikawa Mitsu returned and handed the small cake to Kamikawa Chie.

"Wow! Small cake!" Kamikawa Chie stared at the small cake, her watery, bright eyes sparkling with a bulingbuling light, filled with surprise and joy.

Immediately after.

Learning that the reason Nisan bought the 'luxurious' small cake was because Nisan found a part-time job with a high hourly wage and specifically bought the small cake to reward himself, Kamikawa Chie, besides being happy, began to worry whether Nisan would be too tired.

"Don't worry, it's not tiring."

Kamikawa Mitsu smiled and explained to Kamikawa Chie that the convenience store job was not tiring and very easy.

Hearing this, Kamikawa Chie smiled sweetly.

Her smile was sweet, cute, and charming.

"Nisan, you haven't eaten cake for a long time either; let's eat it together."

Although the cake was bought for Kamikawa Chie, she did not hog it alone and insisted on sharing it with Kamikawa Mitsu.

"I'll go to the kitchen to get a knife to cut it; Nisan, wait for me a moment."

Kamikawa Mitsu, smiling, sat on the sofa, turned on the TV, and waited to eat the cake.

"By the way, Nisan, was that an earthquake just now?" Kamikawa Chie's voice came from the kitchen.

Pressing the remote control and selecting a TV channel to watch, Kamikawa Mitsu turned his head, looking toward the kitchen connected to the living room.

The apartment where his family lived was very old.

Traditional Japanese apartment style.

The kitchen and the living room were separated only by a kitchen sink counter.

"Yes."

"Oh, I was just saying; while doing homework just now, I felt the eraser on the desk jumping."

Kamikawa Chie came out holding a Western-style chef's knife.

While happily cutting the small cake, she spoke.

"Speaking of which, Nisan, I don't know if it's my illusion, but I feel earthquakes have been a bit frequent lately."

Taking the cake, Kamikawa Mitsu pointed to the TV for Kamikawa Chie: "Your feeling is not wrong; indeed, there have been many more earthquakes."

On the TV, news was being broadcast.

The content introduced by the news anchor was precisely about the earthquake.
