Chapter Ninety-Seven: Captain Genius
Claire has always known that her sister is a good boy who is physically "honest". Even if the facts were different from what he described at the beginning, after a small tantrum, the girl was still abducted by him and put on the airship.
In addition to the fact that his face is still a little dark......
"Mr. Captain Genius, is it time for us to take off?"
Miss Margaret sat down in her chair and vented her frustration in a cold tone, she already regretted that she had listened to someone's coaxing. Claire swears that she is not the captain of the ship, but when they meet the masters who invented the airship, the inventors praise the liar as if they had met a genius captain who is rare in a century.
To be honest, if it weren't for some confidence in the crew members who were on board with her, she would almost have turned around and left.
"Of course. ”
Claire innocently touched her nose. He hadn't deceived his sister, and he wasn't really the captain of the trip. But he couldn't say it, because if the captain's identity was revealed, his sister might immediately bounce off her chair and jump overship......
Of course, even now it doesn't seem much better. The eldest lady could have sat in the cabin and waited for takeoff, but she had to run to the cockpit, and she had to watch the airship take off safely to rest assured, which showed how unbearable her brother was in her eyes.
"Then ......," he said, taking the captain's seat, placing the golden cage in his hand on the low table beside him, and whispering to the frog inside, "it's up to you, Tours." ”
"Quack (no problem)!" the frog puffed out his chest, stretched out his right foreleg and patted his chest very humanly, declaring his reliability to the red-haired youth. But then, another discordant frog croaking suddenly sounded: "Quack, quack, quack (wait, why please Tours, I'm the best learner)!"
"Quack, quack (Avery, don't make a fuss, we're going to take off)!"
"Quack, quack (I didn't mess around, this is a very serious matter, obviously I learned well, I should be allowed to command the sail)!"
"Quack, quack (who said it, theory does not mean actual operation). ”
"Quack quack (I should have come!)"
"Quack, quack (no, I should come!)"
......
The non-stop croaking of frogs echoed through this small cockpit, attracting the attention of everyone in the cockpit. The noise made Miss Margaret, who was already displeased, sharpen her teeth, and almost all the veins on her forehead appeared.
"Mr. Claire. She deliberately lowered her voice, as if trying to suppress the anger in her chest: "Can't you just let this frog shut its mouth!?"
"I'm afraid not...... Wait, I'll let him be as quiet as possible!"
Claire was already in a cold sweat, he wanted to say that this frog would not be able to set sail without telling them, but when he saw his sister's darkening face, the red-haired young man who knew something was wrong quickly changed his words.
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, now is not the time to quarrel!" he slapped the cage so that the two souls in the frog could wake up from the endless quarrel, "if you continue to quarrel, my sister will kill someone!"
"Quack?" Turce asked, coming back to his senses.
"See for yourself...... Claire moved the cage so that the frog could see the girl grinding her teeth behind her, "See, even if someone invites her to eat a roasted frog now, she will never refuse!"
"Quack!"
Perhaps it was the word "roasted frog" that touched the nerves of some two gentlemen, and the frog in the cage obviously shuddered when they heard this.
"Quack. Mr. Frog suddenly lowered his voice, "Quack." ”
"Good. Claire wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, turned her head to look at the other two crew members in the cockpit, and motioned to them, "Obey the command and prepare to set sail." ”
"Understood, Captain!"
......
"Whew!"
A loud whistle began to sound, and all the crew returned to their seats.
Claire nodded in satisfaction and turned her gaze back to the "captain" in the cage once again.
The frog, which had been ready for a long time, suddenly raised its head and began its chirping again.
Only this time, the frog chirping is obviously much more regular.
Frog: "Quack!"
Claire: "Check the communications. ”
Crew: "Communication on the ship is normal, communication on the ground is normal!"
Frog: "Quack!"
Claire: "Check the energy, blow the air and measure the wind!"
Crew: "The source crystal energy is stable, the wind direction is 30 degrees south-east, and the wind force is level 2. ”
Frog: "Quack, quack, quack!"
Claire: "Push to power level 1 and pull up the cable!"
Crew: "Understood, the power has been applied, pull up the cable!"
Tours: "Quack!"
Claire: "The Raven sets sail!"
Crew: "The Raven sets sail!"
The sound of the propeller turning began to "boom", and the huge wind and waves spread out in all directions centered on the White Raven, and the silver-white airship began to jolt violently, slowly rising in the direction of the sky in the roar.
In the cabin, Miss Margaret, who had taken off for the first time, almost screamed at the sudden and great turbulence, and her face turned pale, and her hands firmly grasped the armrest of the chair, and she bit her lip so as not to let herself be too unruly.
"Don't be afraid, Margaret. Claire, who had been paying close attention to her sister, comforted her kindness: "The bumps during take-off are normal, and it will be fine after a while, and soon you will be able to overlook the earth from the sky." ”
"But don't you think it's shaking too much?"
Miss Margaret did not feel comforted in the slightest, she still held firmly on her chair, not daring to move, "I feel that we will fall at any moment!"
"Quack (she's right)!"
"What did you say?" Claire, who just wanted to continue to comfort her sister, turned her head sharply and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Quack, quack, quack (don't worry, it's just that the power is a little lacking, we're going to push the power to level 3)!"
"Rise to level 3 power, fast"
Claire shouted, causing the crew to push the handle immediately.
The bumpy airship slammed suddenly, and then, as if it had broken free from some restraint, it swiped and sprang up. At this moment, everyone on the airship couldn't help but fall backwards, and almost instantly, they found that the airship had broken through the clouds and reached the sky!
"Quack! quack!"
"Slow down, slow down!"
Seeing the airship flying higher and higher with everyone, the red-haired young man with a blue face who was frightened hurriedly jumped up, pushed away the crew who was operating the power lever, and pulled the pole back violently.
"Squeak. ”
A tooth-sore sound instantly spread through every corner of the airship, and everyone who was still leaning back just now rushed forward again.
The sound of ping-pong crashing sounded in the various cabins, and almost everyone seemed to hear the moaning of the "white crow" at this moment.
"I swear, I'll never fly in your airship again!"
These were the last words that Miss Margaret said before she fainted.
She had already vomited all her breakfast.
