Chapter 23 - On the Plane

Translated by: Spot

Edited by: Isalee

Malakals airport was very small; there were no flights at night. The only the plane that came to pick up Morgan was on the runway.

The car that Gao Yang and the rest were on was directly driven to the side of the plane. There were also three people on the plane who were standing beside the cabin door.

After Morgan got out of the car, he walked to one of them and gave him a hug. Morgan said with a low voice, Your brothers body is in the car. I deeply apologize, Simon.

Simon nodded his head, and replied heavily, Mr. Morgan, Moses was just accomplishing his duty. Im grateful that you were able to bring Moses back.

Patting Simons arm, Mr. Morgan and the other two people nodded at one another. After hinting at Bob and Gao Yang to follow him, they climbed onto the plane.

The plane that came to pick Morgan up was a beautiful G450 Gulfstream. This was Morgans personal plane, and this type of plane was capable of making intercontinental flights. Gao Yang didnt know the specific price for such a plane, but he knew it must have cost a boatload.

The aircraft cabin had nineteen seats. Morgan gave Gao Yang a quick summary, then walked to the front end of the cabin and started conversing in a low tone with the people who had come to pick him up. Meanwhile, Gao Yang consciously chose the seat furthest away from Morgan.

Seeing Gao Yang sat in a corner, Bob smiled mischievously and sat beside Gao Yang. Using his arm, he poked him a few times. Hey partner, dont tell me youre still mad with my dad? Okay, Ill apologize once more to you. I promise I wont ever ruin your happy occasion.

Gao Yang shook his head and softly said, Im not angry, Im just a bit scared. Brother, Im scared to death right now.

Bob eyed him strangely: Scared? Why are you scared? Do you have psychological aversions to planes?

Gao Yang laughed out bitterly: No, I get scared at the thought of finally being able to go home. Ive left my home for way too long, and I have no clue about whats happened back there. We have a saying in China, its called the prospect of returning home arouses unknown anxieties, and I think Im experiencing this right now.

Bob shrugged his shoulders with face full of puzzlement. Thats a weird way of thinking things. Whats there to be afraid of when going home? If I were you, I wouldnt contact them. Id return home and give them a pleasant surprise. Alrighty, were about to leave this godforsaken country. You should lighten up.

Right after they finished talking, the plane had also finished preparing for takeoff. When that guy called Simon entered the plane, the plane immediately closed its cabin doors and started its departure.

Once Simon was onboard, he didnt immediately find a seat but instead directly walked up to Gao Yang and held out his hand. After shaking his hand, Simon used a somewhat rough voice and said, Im Simon, Mosess brother. Im here to express my gratitude for helping my brother accomplish his duty in protecting Mr. Morgan. In addition, thank you for helping Mr. Morgan in bringing my little brothers body back. Very thankful, youngster.

After saying that, Simon walked to Morgans side and sat down. Once Simon was seated, the plane promptly started taxiing out.

Gao Yang knew Simons brother was Mr. Morgans bodyguard, Moses. He had been such a godly figure, yet when looking at Simons ordinary appearance, it was not eye-catching at all. However, while he was shaking his hand, Gao Yang felt that the web between Simons thumb and index finger was filled with calluses. So, he was certain that Simon was also a god-like figure.

As the plane took off, Gao Yang lowered his voice and asked Bob who was by his side, That Simon, is he also your dads bodyguard? He seems very godly, whats his background?

Bob also lowered his voice as he cautiously replied, What you said is correct. He indeed is a very godly figure just like his brother. Hes one of my fathers strongest subordinates. One of the brothers follows my dad, while the other is left behind in America. They are both Jewish and from Israel. I think theyre also from the same unit, but they wont reveal just which unit theyre from. Nobody knows. Even my father doesnt know. I suspect theyre part of the Mossad, but this is only speculation. Thats all I know.

Knowing that Simon was from Israel, Gao Yangs interest in Simon immediately increased. There wasnt any other reason, it was only because Israels special forces were too awesome and very secretive. This was hardly an exaggeration. Israels special forces created the most splendid military successes in current times, and up until now, Israel still hadnt announced the title of their special forces. People who could speculate about this only classified it as the Feral boy special forces. Without any confirmation from Israel however, there was no way to verify if there was actually such an existence.

As a military enthusiast, Gao Yang was very interested in Israels special forces. As a result, he also had a strong interest in Simon. However, that was all to it. Gao Yang wouldnt be idiot and walk up to Simon to ask which unit he was in, nor could he be a groupie to go up to ask for an autograph. He only used a curious but respectable gaze to check Simon out a few times.

Seeing Gao Yangs eyes constantly on Simons body, Bob lightly poked him and said, Yo, brother, stop staring at Simon. Tell me, your Chinese special forces are as mysterious as the Israeli ones, whats that all about? I promise I wont divulge anything.

Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he replied, Where did you come up with the idea that I was in the special forces? Ive already told you everything. Im only a military enthusiast, nothing more.

Bob replied in contempt: Sure bro, Im also a military enthusiast. Okay, even though Im only attracted to military equipment, Im still a military enthusiast. Do you think Id be able to live through those circumstances? Moses was already a godly figure, yet he still died. You dare to still call yourself a military enthusiast? Dont kid with me, youre definitely one of those with a special mission, right?

Gao Yang took a deep breath: I really am a military enthusiast, not some special forces, nor am I a spy. Ive only had three years of professional shooting experience. As for why I performed fairly well was because I was in the right place doing the right actions. Thats all. Of course, the most important reason why is because I was lucky. Very very lucky, to the point where bullets were dodging me. Other than that, I have no other explanation.

Really?

Really, I swear to God.

Looking dejected, Bob let out a sigh: Okay, I believe what you said is true. Oh right, I have a present for you.

Right after saying that, Bob took out a gun harness around his waist and passed it to Gao Yang. Im giving this to you. My beloved, a hunters best friend.

Gao Yang received the harness and took out a sparkling, large-sized silver revolver.

The gun was a Smith and Wessons m686. The m686 could considered Smith and Wesson companys best product. With .357 magnum bullets, this type of bullets might was extremely huge. It could potentially kill bears and lions. Furthermore, the m686 could fit seven bullets, making it much larger than the majority of revolvers.

Because of the large recoil and size of the m686, it wasnt a mainstream carry-on gun. However, the m686 revolver rarely got stuck. The .357 magnum bullets large firepower, in addition to its needless security, guaranteed the shooters protection. The gun could be pulled to immediately shoot when encountering danger. This was how the m686 became a hunters most beloved.

Bobs m686 had a six inch long gun barrel, and it wasnt the m686s biggest model. It felt heavy in his hand, and this was actually Gao Yangs first time ever touching a revolver. Regardless of the feel or the appearance, the m686 simply made Gao Yang caress it lovingly. The m686s chromium body and ivory gun handle showed that this was a limited edition premium product.

After fiddling around with it for a long time, Gao Yang let out a sigh and returned the gun back to Bob. With a face of helplessness, he said, Forget about it, its better to return it to you. Im about to return to China and I wont be able to bring this gun with me.
