Chapter 196: The chill is awe-inspiring
It's a small training airport just outside of Pittsburgh, or you can't call it an airport, it's more appropriate to call it a big lawn. With the exception of a trainer parked at the end of the only runway, there were no planes in sight.
Several police officers surrounded the trainer, and in the middle of the crowd was a tall, rosacea-nosed man who looked to be over 50 years old.
The two police cars drove directly to the wing of the trainer plane before stopping, and a policeman walked out of the crowd and held the hand of Coleman, who had just gotten out of the car: "Richie, I finally waited for you." ”
Richie was about 30 years old, very thin, his hair was messier than a chicken coop, and he always couldn't wake up between his eyebrows, although he heard the police officer he sent to receive Kaulman and his party say that there were many people coming from the FBI this time, but he was still stopped by the three beautiful women who came down in the back car in turn.
It could be seen that Richie had a very French temperament, smiled politely and politely raised the hand of each lady of the law, and kissed it gently, Coleman had been left behind by him.
It wasn't until he pulled up a chubby palm again that Richie keenly noticed that the owner of the hand seemed to be weighing more than he could hunt.
When he wanted to put his mouth up with a little regret, politeness, gentlemanly politeness asked Richie not to do anything that would make the lady sad, but he didn't expect that this hand was like being stung by a scorpion, and he hurriedly retracted it first.
Ritchie thought that the lady didn't seem to know much etiquette, and as he tried to raise his bowed body, there was an irrepressible burst of laughter around him.
Standing in front of Richie was a small-eyed fat man, and that smiling look made Richie want to get into the cockpit of the trainer plane to hide.
glared fiercely at a few subordinates around who were desperately covering their mouths and pinching their thighs, Richie reached out and shook the fat man in embarrassment: "Wang Lei, right?" We've received a list of your personnel from the FBI Los Angeles for this time. ”
Coleman ignored Rich's discomfort and asked directly: "This time the case headquarters hasn't had time to tell us in detail, Richie, you can tell us about it." ”
Speaking of the case, Richie finally returned to normal, grimacing at the three women who were still snickering on the side, and in bursts of laughter like silver bells, Richie began to tell the story of the case.
The case happened a week ago.
Sophie and her boyfriend, Hage, came from New York, both of whom were college students who had just left school, and they hurried out for a short trip while the job report had not yet been heard.
It should be said that the two young people in love had a lot of fun along the way. Pittsburgh was their last stop, and the two of them would have been in Pittsburgh for two days, but they would return home to prepare for a new life.
On Sophie and Hage's first night in Pittsburgh, at the hotel bar, Hage met a boy about their age from Los Angeles.
The boy introduced himself as Ken, who had only been working for two months as a salesperson for an insurance company, and had come here on a business trip to expand into the Pittsburgh market.
Since they are about the same age and their experiences are not much different, the three young people naturally talk about it very well. In a few moments, Ken and Hagee drank several beers, and Sophie interjected from time to time, and everyone was happy.
The hotel bar has a small event every few days, a raffle or something. The prizes are not very valuable, but because of the variety of prizes, the atmosphere at the bar can be very lively at this time.
As luck would have it, he was lucky enough to win a prize from the bar the next morning, and he was rewarded with a free skydive at the suburban training ground the next morning.
The next morning, Haji and Sophie went to the training ground with him and helped him take a few more photos of him flying in the air, which was also a capital for him to brag about in his circle of friends after returning to Los Angeles.
After the agreement, Sophie quietly pulled the corners of Haji's clothes a few times, the Spring Festival was worth a thousand dollars, and Sophie didn't want the tenderness and sweetness of herself and Haji to be consumed by the bar.
You must know that after returning to Los Angeles, whether it is work or anything, it will definitely not be as easy as it is now, and there is such a passion in the world of two people.
Ken laughs at Sophie and Hage, who are left alone at the bar to drink and play. As Sophie walked out of the bar, she looked back to see a girl in a short skirt sitting next to Ken.
The next day, the day after Sophie and Hage's plan for their best in Pittsburgh, the two of them stayed for another night and drove back to New York.
At 11 a.m., despite yawning, Hagi drove Sophie and Kenn to the training ground.
The trainer plane was parked in a makeshift engine room, and the rosacea pilot was sipping sip after sip from a flat white flask, and several parts of the plane were placed on the floor.
Ken handed the ticket to Rosacea, "It says you can skydive here for free, right?" ”
The drunken rosacea took the ticket, looked at it, and replied with a burp, "That's right, this is it." You don't look at me like that, eh...... Little girl. ”
Facing Sophie's skeptical eyes, rosacea patted his chest vigorously: "Although Old Yajie has drunk, but if you want to fly, you call the pilot from Pittsburgh International Airport, and no one dares to compare with Old Yajie, uh......"
Despite not trusting the elder Jay, Ken got on the trainer with trepidation. Sophie and Haji drove their old Ford to the middle of the lawn, and the two sat on the hood, while Haji tossed Sophie a can of beer and watched with concern as the trainer staggered down the runway.
Fortunately, the trainer plane did not suddenly rush out of the runway as Sophie thought, or just took off, less than 100 meters, and fell headlong again, etc.
Lao Yajie's skills are really good, the trainer took off smoothly at the end of the runway, at least, it still looks smooth in the air, and the gliding curve is also very graceful.
During one of Old Yajie's deliberate ultra-low slides, Sophie also hears the hateful laughter of Ken and Rosacea.
As the two men talked and drank beer, Haji asked Sophie, "Honey, are you ready for the camera?" ”
Charmingly, Haji rolled her eyes, and Sophie raised the phone in her hand: "We have a camera there, but, hehe, my phone pixel is also good, and the photos taken are still very clear." ”
The trainer plane was in the air for 10 minutes, and Sophie got impatient and urged Haji to call.
"Ken, hurry up and skydive, we're waiting to take a picture of you. You don't want to jump off without a parachute, haha
"It's good, it's good, it's going to jump right away, I'm preparing." Ken replied happily. On the phone, Haji also heard Old Yajie's laughter and shouting: "Boy, it's that parachute, carry it well, without it you will become a meat puree......"
A few minutes later, Ken appeared at the airport gate, Sophie waved at him excitedly, and Hagee sneered, "Baby, do you think he'll be able to see you?" ”
Sophie jumped and shouted again unconvinced and waved her hand: "Why can't I see anything, I still see him waving like me." ”
There was a lot of this conversation between the young couples, and although Sophie wasn't sure if she saw Ken waving in response, it was impossible to throw in the towel when arguing with her boyfriend.
As the two men looked at him, Ken leapt through the hatch and into the blue sky, and Sophie exclaimed, "Haji, he jumped, he jumped out." ”
Haji picked up the phone on the hood, and began to look for the small black dot in the air, muttering while patting: "I can't see this clearly, what is the effect of taking it......"
Ken was falling rapidly in the air, and the two of them could already see Ken's body clearly, Sophie suddenly wondered: "Haji, why hasn't he pulled the parachute yet?" ”
Haji didn't care, what was there. Those who don't watch stunt skydiving on TV usually pull their parachutes when they are very close to the ground, and what people are looking for is the thrill that makes the heart stop.
After explaining a few words to Sophie, Haji wanted to continue taking pictures, but he didn't know why he put down his phone, and he began to try to keep his eyes open and look at the sky.
Sophie was a little scared, and she stopped jumping and shouting, she leaned on Haji, grabbed Haji's arm tightly with both hands, and her face began to change color: "Haji, why didn't he pull the parachute yet!" ”
Haji looked up at the sky in a daze, and suddenly he shook off Sophie's palm and desperately shouted to the sky with all his strength: "Ken, open the parachute, open the parachute......"
Ken didn't open his parachute, maybe he didn't hear Haji's shouts, maybe he wanted more excitement, even though both Haji and Sophie had heard from Ken the night before that it was the first skydive in his life.
Ken was getting closer and closer to the ground, and Haji and Sophie could already see the parachute backpack on his back not far away, and his speed was getting faster and faster, and the sound of the wind made Haji and Sophie shudder.
After a few more shouts, Haji stopped, and he and Sophie squeezed tighter and tighter, and the two of them hugged each other tightly, and they could hear the "da-da" between each other's upper and lower teeth.
The two men hugged each other like that, staring and watching, their eyes moving with Ken's free fall until ......
"Bang", a loud sound that made people's teeth sore, and the lawn not far away seemed to be hit by a cannonball, and a circular ripple spread sharply in all directions.
