Chapter 3 Escorting the Crested Ibis
The airliner was like a big silver-white bird, its wings swept through the clouds, bringing up two faint white vortices, shuttling lightly in the clouds, Zixia looked out from the porthole, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I've seen it many times, but I still think it's beautiful."
Zhang Yang lay on the seat and closed his eyes to recuperate, letting Zixia next to him sigh in surprise like a fledgling little girl, and he was a little proud in his heart, which was a difference of thousands of years in terms of technological superiority.
As if sensing Zhang Yang's thoughts, Zixia looked at Zhang Yang with bright eyes: "Are you snickering in your heart?" ”
"No, absolutely not."
Zhang Yang kept his mouth shut and continued to pretend that it hadn't happened, while Zixia continued to look out the window, although she was a fairy, she had lived in ancient times for most of her life, even if she could fly the clouds, the feeling of blowing in the air was completely different from that of an airplane.
Immortals have the benefits of immortals, and there are people in the world who are at ease.
It is certainly cool and crooked, but are there catering, medicine, and air conditioning? When Zixia is in the clouds, she also needs to separate a part of the mana to cover the whole body to prevent being blown by the violent air current, where is the first-class cabin of a civil airliner comfortable?
However, the advantage of flying clouds and fog is that you don't have to obey the control of the Aviation Bureau, take off at any time, land at any time, do not use airports and runways, as long as you don't hit people, the world is so big, step on the clouds and let you wander around, fly horizontally, vertically, and spin, and there will be no anti-aircraft missiles to greet you.
"It's a pity that I can't meet monsters here, so I can't fight."
Zixia looked at the scenery outside and was eager to try, although she had lived in the modern city for a while, she still occasionally missed the world she was in, and she could fly. Most of them are immortals and demons who have a certain Taoism, and if they bump into it, they will inevitably have to fight, and all the famous big demons have hardly heard of anyone who is afraid of fighting.
“…….”
Zhang Yang listened to Zixia's voice, and wondered if he would also take Zixia to the movie world to play?
As soon as this idea appeared, Zhang Yang was a little tempted, but so far, he has not brought anyone into the film world, so he has no corresponding experience.
"Zhang Yang, shall we fly outside?"
"Don't. When we get to the ground, we will have a chance to play again. ”
Zixia suddenly became playful, and wanted to secretly pull Zhang Yang outside, but Zhang Yang hurriedly stopped her, and now she is really in public. If the two of them rashly run outside the cabin of the plane, won't they scare the captain of the plane to death?
"Sir. Your ice water. ”
A young stewardess in uniform placed a glass of ice water in front of Zhang Yang. Then they walked away politely, and after professional training, they naturally understood some etiquette knowledge.
Zhang Yang noticed that in the back row of his left, there was a handsome man, who had taken off since the plane took off. There were already two young flight attendants who stuffed two notes into the man's hand without a trace, and Zhang Yang didn't say anything, knowing in his heart that he didn't need to stop others from fishing for Kaizi.
Most of the passengers in the first class cabin have some status. Therefore, the environment is very quiet, there is occasional whispered talk, most of them are beginning to close their eyes to adjust to jet lag, some are due to airsickness, and only the gentle voices of the flight attendants can be heard.
This direct flight from H City to Tokyo, about three hours away, although it is not long, but the first class cabin is equipped with wireless network, you can watch the news on the Internet or something, Zhang Yang and Zixia are doing their own things, like most couples passengers.
During the flight, the aircraft may encounter turbulence in the airflow guide fuselage, especially when taking off, the wings will even be slightly deformed, making people think that there is going to be an accident, and passengers who are taking the plane for the first time may be a little uncomfortable.
When they were on their way to Japan, there was also a plane that took off from Province J with only a few staff members and a few cages covered with black cloth.
According to the regulations, things that exceed a certain volume are forbidden to board the plane, and can only be checked in, but these black cages, not only no one stopped them, but carefully escorted them up.
"Teacher, do you really want to give these four crested ibises to Japan?"
Chen Liang, from the Department of Biology of South China University of Science and Technology, looked distressed at the tight cage wrapped in black cloth on the plane and looked at his supervisor.
"There is no way, these four crested ibises were originally entrusted to us by the Japanese side, and according to the "Plan for the Joint Protection of Crested Ibises between China and Japan", now that the situation has been restored, it is natural that the goods should be returned to their original owners."
The old professor Yang Huaimin was also reluctant, but he also had to abide by the regulations and return the four crested ibises to Japan.
The crested ibis, Japan's national bird, is on the verge of extinction (the crested ibis, which is native to Japan, is actually completely extinct), and these four crested ibises are the last three remaining in Japan.
In desperation, the Japanese biological protection organization could only ask the Chinese government for help, according to the "China and Japan Joint Protection Plan for the Crested Ibis" signed in the early years, Huaxia took the initiative to undertake the work of breeding for the pair of crested ibis, and under the careful care of the professional team led by Yang Huaimin for half a year, it was finally fruitful and successfully hatched a pair of small crested ibis, and according to the regulations, these four crested ibises should be returned to Japan at this moment.
"But ......, hey!"
Chen Liang sighed, he is a doctoral student in the Department of Biology, and he follows Yang Huaimin to take care of the crested ibis, in addition to these four crested ibis, he also undertakes the consulting work of three precious zoos in China to take care of the crested ibis.
"Although I don't want to, there is no way, the crested ibis is the national bird of Japan, and these four are the last bit of blood of the crested ibis native to Japan, and we can't keep it if we want to, otherwise the Japanese government will protest to us strictly."
Yang Huaimin comforted his eldest disciple, he was very aware of the importance of these two pairs of crested ibis, the bred baby crested ibis happened to be a male and female pair, for the crested ibis, not like humans have zài inbreeding and some problems, but can maintain the purity of the bloodline.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Yang and your students, if it weren't for you, our national treasure might be cut off."
A middle-aged man in a suit bowed to Yang Huaimin one by one, he was the person in charge of the Japanese side to receive the crested ibis back to China, and he was accompanied by a group of crested ibis conservation experts, responsible for taking care of the crested ibis, although it was only three hours, but no one could guarantee certain safety.
"No thanks, this is what we should do, animals have no borders."
Yang Huaimin waved his hand, he was not used to the strict etiquette of the Japanese, and the other party also understood this, and bowed again and turned to say goodbye.
"Then we'll go first."
After Muraki thanked him, he turned around and boarded the plane, the plane was sent by the Japanese side, and the entourage was all from the Japanese side, and after the leaders of the Chinese side confirmed that it was correct, the two sides officially completed the handover, and the Boeing 747 was lightly sunk into the sky.
Not long after the plane took off, a light rain suddenly fell in the sky, in order to prevent the plane from being struck by lightning and disturbing the crested ibis in the cage, the plane climbed to the height, penetrated the thick clouds and came to the sky, under the body is a rolling thick sea of clouds, the sun is still shining overhead, and the blue sky is as blue as washing.
"It's a nice day, haha."
Thinking of Japan's national treasure, the crested ibis, which finally succeeded in breeding offspring, Muraki felt a sense of relief in his heart, although he did this with the help of Chinese talents, but Japan was originally the best nation at self-comfort, and directly ignored this.
"It's a good day like this, you have to drink some champagne to celebrate."
Muraki's eyes rolled, he knew the location of the restaurant, which belonged to the flight attendants, and saw that the biologists were waiting by the side of the crested ibis, and they didn't dare to relax for a moment, which made Muraki feel that there was a bit of a fuss, but it was just a flight, how could the crested ibis, which flew in the sky all day long, get motion sickness, it was simply overworked.
There were a total of ten people on the plane, two captains and co-pilots, four biological experts, two flight attendants, and a Japanese government official, who was responsible for confirming the handover of formal procedures with Huaxia.
"It's a pity that the flight attendants are not ladies, it's just too boring to be all men......."
Now the plane is flying smoothly, and the occasional turbulence can't disturb Muraki's good mood, holding champagne aimlessly, leisurely around to the bottom of the cabin, Muraki just saw the co-pilot Sato and a flight attendant, walked down, probably preparing to check the facilities on the plane, so he didn't think much about it, and was ready to walk over to say hello, maybe there is a place to use each other after returning to Japan.
As soon as he approached, he heard Sato talking to the male flight attendant, and the content of the conversation suddenly made him feel bad.
"Is the signal out?"
"Send it out, and in about 5 minutes the jammer will work, the airport will lose our contact, and then we can move."
"Well done, one qiē executed according to plan."
"Understood."
Let's go? Action what? What action?
Muraki's eyes widened, and the slight drunkenness from the champagne he drank immediately woke up a little.
He was the person in charge of the plan this time, and he could confirm that he had not received any action orders except to welcome the crested ibis back to Japan, and at this moment, he suddenly heard the conversation between Sato and the two, and he couldn't help but leave a cold sweat on his forehead.
Although before coming to Huaxia, his boss cautiously reminded him to be careful, but Muraki thinks that it is just to escort a few crested ibis, can there be any catastrophe? The meat of the crested ibis is not delicious, and private breeding is illegal, will anyone want to snatch these crested ibises, go back to wash and peel them and stew them?
Someone wants to grab the crested ibis?
This thought was like a thunderbolt that exploded in Muraki's mind. (To be continued......)
