Chapter 161 : Takeoff
Chapter 161 : Takeoff
"Sorry miss, this is our regulation......"
The security check lady looked with difficulty at the white-haired girl in front of her who was pouting in dissatisfaction, feeling an enormous headache.
"This really is milk! Look, the brand, production date are all here, and it's never been opened—it absolutely cannot be some other strange thing!" Xifeng held the boxed Fierce Bull milk in her hand, so excited her face was bright red.
"Miss, this isn't about what's inside......" The security lady really wanted to properly explain to this young girl, but felt it would be somewhat troublesome to explain clearly, so she scratched her head in distress. "Regulations are regulations. Liquids cannot be brought on the plane. You either leave the milk here or drink it all now."
"But......"
Just as Xifeng opened her mouth wanting to continue arguing, Bei Yaoyue beside her couldn't watch anymore. With black lines on her forehead, she pulled Xifeng aside and said with a headache: "Can we not embarrass ourselves? Is this your first time on a plane?"
"Of course not, it's just my first time bringing milk on a plane......" Xifeng muttered quietly. Previously when she took flights, she always happened to have a huge suitcase that was directly checked, with all sorts of random things stuffed in the suitcase rather than brought into the cabin, so she had never encountered this situation before.
Bei Yaoyue shook her head helplessly and pointed at those several boxes of confiscated milk: "Are you going to drink them? If not, let's go."
"Drink my ass, if I down all these bottles I'll probably burst." Xifeng said angrily, gazing affectionately at the several boxes of milk that were about to part with her forever, then closed her backpack and tossed it to Ye Zhenzhen.
After completing security check, the group began walking toward the departure lounge.
Although He Pingge and Su Weiai had only met a few times, being similar in age and having two mutual good friends, they quickly became acquainted and gradually familiar with each other.
"Speaking of which, why did you suddenly start drinking milk every day?" Following behind Ye Zhenzhen, Bei Yaoyue turned her head to glance at Xifeng and asked curiously. "I didn't see you particularly like drinking milk before."
Xifeng was startled. She looked up at the "lofty" Bei Yaoyue, her cheeks reddening as she suddenly turned her head away, shouting with both shame and annoyance: "Mind your own business! What I like to drink is none of your concern!"
Bei Yaoyue shrugged and obediently shut her mouth, though from Xifeng's reaction, she could actually guess pretty accurately.
What a cute idea indeed.
This behavior of Xifeng's reminded Bei Yaoyue of Akatsuki from Kantai Collection. She thought carefully and felt Xifeng and Akatsuki seemed to have quite a few similarities—loved showing off, liked pretending to be adult and mature when actually hopelessly childish, would secretly drink milk......
After half an hour of boring waiting in the departure lounge, the plane belonging to them slowly arrived and docked at the gate. Boarding began, and the group of six followed the crowd onto the plane.
Since they had decided to go to Full Moon City yesterday on short notice, the tickets were booked very hastily. The business class on this flight was already sold out, leaving only economy class, and the six people's seats were separated from each other. However, there was still one three-seat row, and everyone very tacitly let the three Bei sisters have the three connected seats.
Placing their carry-on bags in the overhead compartment, Bei Yaoluo turned to ask Xifeng: "Do you want the window seat or aisle seat?"
Xifeng was after all the "youngest" person in the group, so everyone would consciously or unconsciously give Xifeng some care.
"Window seat." Saying this, Xifeng directly slipped into the window seat. She quite liked looking at the scenery outside the window.
After Bei Yaoyue and Bei Yaoluo looked at each other, Bei Yaoluo consciously chose the aisle seat, leaving the middle for Bei Yaoyue.
"Please fasten your seatbelts, everyone. Our plane is about to take off."
The sweet-looking, charming flight attendant repeatedly announced while walking down the aisle, carefully checking each passenger's seatbelt.
The plane slowly taxied, turning countless corners before reaching the takeoff runway. Accompanied by the sudden roar of engines increasing power, the plane began rapid acceleration. The seats behind provided everyone with strong G-force, and soon after, the nose lifted at a small angle. The noisy tire noise and intense vibration beneath them instantly disappeared, and the plane began slowly climbing.
"Mmm......"
The sudden change in air pressure brought intense stabbing pain to Xifeng's ears from the pressure difference inside and outside her eardrums. She couldn't help letting out a pained moan.
This body was really incredibly weak. Poor stamina was one thing, but even taking a plane was this torturous. Previously, when Xifeng took flights, although there were various discomforts, it had never been this exaggerated.
Seeing Xifeng uncomfortably covering her ears, Bei Yaoyue took out two pieces of gum from her carry-on bag and handed them to Xifeng: "Here, chewing gum will make you feel much better."
"Mm." Xifeng nodded lightly and hurriedly took the gum from Bei Yaoyue's hand, quickly unwrapping it and stuffing the gum in her mouth.
It was original flavor Blue Arrow gum, a very classic taste.
Whether it was the chewing process that actually worked or psychological effect, Xifeng indeed felt much better. She leaned back against the seat back with relief, though she had no mood to look at scenery anymore.
Bei Yaoluo beside her noticed Xifeng's behavior, turned to look at Xifeng's somewhat pale face, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Not feeling well?"
"It's fine, much better now." Xifeng shook her head.
It felt like two electric drills continuously drilling her ears—that kind of stabbing pain was quite unpleasant. Fortunately, the plane's ascent didn't take very long, and it soon entered level flight. Only then did the discomfort finally slowly fade from Xifeng's mind.
"I suddenly thought of a question." Bei Yaoyue poked Xifeng with her elbow, leaned over, and asked quietly: "Can you fly? I've never seen you fly."
Looking at Bei Yaoyue with a strange expression, Xifeng asked back: "Why would I be able to fly?"
"Why can't you fly?"
"Why would I be able to fly?"
"Why can't you fly?"
"Why would I be able to fly?"
"?"
"?"
Bei Yaoyue looked at her, her small eyes filled with big confusion: "But aren't you a vampire?"
"Who says vampires must be able to fly?" Xifeng gave Bei Yaoyue an annoyed look. "You've been watching too much 2D anime."
"Then... can you lift a steamroller?"
"?"
"Can you stop time?"
For a moment, Xifeng really wanted to slap a big question mark on Bei Yaoyue's face, then give her a slap to wake her up.
"I'm thinking again......" Bei Yaoyue focused her gaze on Xifeng's two adorably powerful little canine teeth that always peeked out even when her mouth was closed. "If we pulled out all your canine teeth, could you still suck blood normally?"
"???? What strange things are you thinking about? Stop it, Bei Yaoyue!"
