Liu Kai stopped because his ultra-wide scan, covering a distance of 12 kilometers, had detected another anomaly!

As Liu Kai carefully sensed the images scanning his mind, his eyes lit up.

"It's like finding a new path after a dead end! There's hope of going home!"

He is currently in a place called "Iruma City".

Nine kilometers south of Iruma City, there is a dilapidated airport.

Actually, that's not an airport, but one of the US bases in Japan:

Yokota Air Base!

Even before the first wave of thawing experiments officially began, the air force base had already gradually fallen into disuse.

To avoid losses, the military aircraft stationed there received orders to evacuate Japan.

However, due to the time constraints, several aircraft that were still under maintenance could not be evacuated in time.

This includes an F-35A fighter jet.

Air Force bases are ultimately U.S. property.

When the three major powers launched their "extermination" attacks on the small-scale economy, they all tacitly avoided this area.

But unexpectedly.

Despite losing the help of American technicians, Xiao Rizi was still able to troubleshoot and repair the aircraft!

Liu Kai was unaware of these things and didn't care why the plane was still there.

All he knew was that the fighter jet was safely parked in the hangar.

Moreover, besides a few planes, there are dozens of living people in this airport!

Judging from their clothes, they are also soldiers of the Self-Defense Forces.

Perhaps it was some high-ranking Japanese official who escaped the massacre who recruited these people together.

These people look very busy right now.

Not only were they refueling the plane, but they were also filling its internal bomb bay with four ground-attack bombs.

It was clearly a plan to go out and cause trouble under the cover of night, specifically to strike ground targets.

I just don't know where they're planning to launch a sneak attack.

Of course, none of that matters; what matters is that the plane can fly.

A fully fueled F-35A can cruise at supersonic speeds with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers without afterburner.

This distance was just enough for him to fly back to Rongcheng City from Yokota Air Base.

So Liu Kai just made a crazy decision: to fly this plane back to China!

He's a headstrong young man who dares to think and act; once he's made a decision, he won't consider anything else.

Moreover, there were only about 40 people in the base, and Liu Kai was confident that he could quickly wipe out the remaining Japanese soldiers.

But there is still one problem.

He won't fly that fighter jet.

His eyes darted around, and an idea came to him.

Regardless of whether it would disturb Yang Hongchang's rest, he picked up his electronic watch again and pressed the emergency call button.

Yang Hongchang was clearly still awake, and the signal was quickly connected.

Looking at Liu Kai's face on the screen, he asked with some surprise, "Liu Kai, where are you? Did something happen?"

"Commander Yang, please tell the brothers in the Northern Theater Command that I will not be going to Kanazawa City to look for them."

"What?!"

Yang Hongchang's surprised voice rose several octaves: "What do you mean? Don't you plan to come back?"

"Of course I'm coming back, but I'm going to take a different route."

Liu Kai suddenly smiled mysteriously.

"I need to trouble Commander Yang for a favor. Could you please find me a pilot's manual for the F-35A fighter jet and send it to me quickly?"

"Ahem! Say it again, what kind of airplane piloting manual do you want?"

"The American F-35A, that's a fat electric car."

Yang Hongchang felt his mind go blank for a moment.

He said incredulously, "Hey kid, you didn't steal a fighter jet, did you?"

"Let's use the word 'ji' instead of 'ba' to show civility. I'm just planning to steal, I haven't succeeded yet."

"Holy crap! You're really planning to do that?"

"Please hurry, I'm waiting online, it's urgent."

Ultimately, he was getting old, and Yang Hongchang stood in front of the computer for a long time before hurriedly starting to act.

Liu Kai's plan to steal a fighter jet was already outrageous enough.

Even more outrageous, he actually plans to learn how to fly a plane on the spot?!

Liu Kai was also helpless.

Before coming to Japan, he had only practiced flying small civilian aircraft through simulation games.

Although the F-35 is just an outdated fifth-generation fighter jet.

But fighter jets and civilian aircraft are ultimately two different things; they can't just be driven away by any Tom, Dick, or Harry.

Fortunately, Yang Hongchang acted quickly and soon sent over a detailed driving tutorial.

Liu Kai projected the tutorial onto the smart glasses.

While driving, he watched the tutorial, multitasking and turning around to head southwest.

The densely packed tutorials made him dizzy, but he could only patiently and diligently study them.

He suddenly felt like making a suggestion to the research institute.

Since it is possible to pre-store shooting techniques for various firearms in the exoskeleton smart glasses.

Why not add fighter jet piloting skills as well?

Liu Kai was unaware that scientists had also discussed this possibility.

However, considering that there are too many unforeseen factors during fighter jet missions and that the battle situation can change in an instant.

If computer decisions influence a pilot's judgment, it could lead to catastrophic consequences.

The 9-kilometer journey was not long, and Liu Kai arrived near the air force base in just over ten minutes.

It's fortunate that his mind is still working very well now.

Even a thick set of materials can be read from beginning to end in ten minutes at a fast reading speed.

Not only can they remember, but they can also integrate and apply their knowledge.

Now every precaution and every detail about flying the F-35A is deeply etched in my mind.
