Chapter 191: Chapter 190: Tearing Steel Plates by Hand "What is this now, it couldn’t be another fire, could it?" Lin Tian was frightened. The kitchen appliances had just caught fire and exploded. That was a close call. If the cockpit caught fire, everyone would be doomed! The cockpit had a door leading directly to the cabin, but it was closed, and without the captain unlocking it, there was no getting in. This was to protect the cockpit, the heart of the entire plane. If just anyone could enter, it would be far too dangerous. Lin Tian picked up the intercom by the door and shouted, "Captain Liu, this is Lin Tian, open the door." "Lin Tian? Who is Lin Tian? I don’t recognize you. The cockpit is a critical area; no unauthorized personnel allowed!" Captain Liu said coldly. Uh, not recognizing him, Lin Tian felt somewhat embarrassed, but given the urgency, he continued, "There’s a camera outside the door; switch over, and you’ll see me." Captain Liu casually switched the monitor screen. After seeing Lin Tian clearly, he frowned even more. "So it’s you, you big pervert." What the heck, why call me a big pervert? Just because I looked a few times? By that logic, every man on this planet would be a pervert. That’s utterly unreasonable. "I suspect there might be a short circuit in the cockpit. This is urgent. If you don’t open up, I’ll smash the door—then you’ll have to compensate!" Lin Tian had to clarify the situation, using the word "suspect." He certainly couldn’t say he saw it through X-ray vision. Vice Captain Fang Meinv hesitated, considering whether or not to open the cockpit door. After all, Lin Tian was a friend of the Xiao family and in such situations, it is better to err on the side of caution. However, Captain Liu stopped her with a look and disdainfully said while watching Lin Tian on the screen, "You’re pretty bold, using this trick to hit on girls. Ha, I’ve seen all kinds of moves. I just checked the wiring; what else do you have to say? The door is made of high-strength aluminum alloy. If you think you can break it, go ahead." Damn it, hitting on girls? I’m hitting on your grandpa! Just because I admired your figure a bit more doesn’t mean I was hitting on you. What kind of logic is that? Lin Tian scowled, about to really test the strength of this aluminum alloy door. "Lin Tian, what are you doing?" Mrs. Xiao’s voice came from behind. Mrs. Xiao and her three daughters were standing behind him, looking at Lin Tian weirdly. Why on earth would he want to smash the cockpit door? "Mrs. Xiao, I suspect there might be a fire hazard with the circuits inside, so I need to check it out," Lin Tian explained. "Aren’t Captain Liu and her team inside?" Mrs. Xiao looked meaningfully at Lin Tian; her words implied that there was no need for anyone else to check, suggesting that Lin Tian wanted to enter because he found the pilot attractive and was trying to flirt. The Xiao sisters, who understood Lin Tian better, knew he might be mischievous at times but wouldn’t fool around with serious matters. Miss Xiao opened a panel on the wall, revealing a digital keypad. After entering a code and her fingerprint, the aluminum alloy door clicked open. Miss Xiao was really considerate. Lin Tian didn’t bother explaining further and went inside first. As he entered, Captain Liu glanced at him and said, "Mrs. Xiao, he..." "Xiao Liu, let him check," Mrs. Xiao stopped her from continuing, wanting to recruit Lin Tian and not wanting to embarrass him further. "Don’t you smell that burning plastic?" Lin Tian frowned. Upon entering, Lin Tian detected a faint burning plastic smell, very subtle. He then remembered his "zombie nose"; he could smell it, but they probably couldn’t. As expected, they all shook their heads, only Miss Xiao hesitated, as if trying to focus and sniff something in the air. "The smell seems to be coming from over there." Lin Tian already knew where the problematic wiring was, but he pretended to sniff a few times before pointing towards a metal panel. "Here?" Captain Liu hesitated, then said seriously, "There indeed are circuits behind this. If it’s really here, that’s troublesome. This aluminum alloy plate is fixed tightly, and it’s difficult to take apart." "Don’t we have tools on the plane?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously. "Even with tools, it’s not easy to dismantle," said Captain Liu, handing the controls to Vice Captain Fang. He looked over it again and shook his head. While they were talking, Lin Tian had been observing it through X-ray vision, and more sparks burst out from the inside of the wiring. Now there was no need for debate; everyone could smell the scent of burning plastic. "There’s no time, move aside," Lin Tian pushed Captain Liu away and told Mrs. Xiao to stand back as well, yet they had no idea what Lin Tian intended to do. The strength of the aluminum alloy plate was very high, as it was the material used for the airplane. Even with the Xiao Family’s "Sword Qi", it could not be completely cut through. Lin Tian did not care about shocking everyone; he pretended to shout loudly, as if he was about to use some ultimate move, and then raised his hands. In their astonished gazes, Lin Tian forcefully drove his hands into the aluminum alloy plate. The continuous "squeak, squeak" sound was grating, making everyone’s teeth itch. "Open up!" Lin Tian shouted again, pulling the dense aluminum alloy plate apart with force. "You... you..." A voice trembling with shock came from the doorway. It turned out Zhou Botong, Ou Mengmeng, and Secretary Xu had also finished checking and had come over; they too were completely stunned. Hand-tearing the alloy plate, were their eyes deceiving them? That was what everyone was thinking. "Done," Lin Tian turned around, saw everyone inside the cabin, yet they had all been turned to stone by shock. He quickly shook Captain Liu to consciousness and said, "Hurry up, your circuits are too complicated, you handle it." "Oh, right." When it came to the circuit problem, Captain Liu finally snapped out of it and got down to fixing the circuits. "Idol, are you a god?" Zhou Botong circled around Lin Tian, yelling exaggeratedly. "I’m no god. You’ve read too many novels. I’m an Ancient Martial Artist, I practice Cross-Training Kung Fu, all taught by my master. Don’t ask who my master is, the rules of the sect, it’s a secret," Lin Tian stopped Zhou Botong, reluctantly bringing up that non-existent master again. If one really had to mention a master, the zombie girl barely counted, Lin Tian thought – she was the only one that came to mind. "Miss is also an Ancient Martial Artist, can she do it?" Zhou Botong insisted on asking to the end. "I can’t at the moment, but if I had my master’s treasured sword, I could cut it open," Miss shook her head and then nodded, ultimately admitting she didn’t have the ability to tear the aluminum alloy plate apart with her bare hands. However, this fact alone made Zhou Botong more frustrated. If a woman could be so powerful, it made him, a grown man, feel inadequate. It didn’t take long for Captain Liu to fix the fault, less than ten minutes. She straightened up, wiped the sweat from her forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said sincerely to Lin Tian, "It’s good that you noticed early, the circuit hadn’t completely burned through yet. I officially apologize to you; I was wrong before." Such a straightforward and generous girl. Seeing the sincerity on her pretty face, Lin Tian’s opinion of her changed. No wonder, as the Second Miss had said, she had flown a fighter jet, being a soldier by trade, her speech was direct but her character was honest. Read latest chapters at fre(e)novelhall.com Only
