Bai Fan silently looked at the other person again, then waved to the flight attendant and told her about the blond youth's lost ticket and inability to find a seat.
Because it is not uncommon for people to lose their flight tickets due to carelessness during the flight, the flight attendant smiled kindly and gently at the blond young man: "Don't worry, sir. Please come with us to verify your information. If the information is correct, we can issue you a lost certificate. When you get off the plane and go through customs, you can show the certificate."
"Oh, thank you very much." The blond young man smiled with relief, and under the guidance of the flight attendant, the two went to the cabin in the front.
Bai Fan breathed a sigh of relief as his ears were finally quiet. He leaned back in his chair comfortably and picked up the Interstellar Daily distributed when he boarded the plane and started reading it.
Before Bai Fan finished reading one page, the flight attendant brought the young man back and stopped in front of Bai Fan again.
Bai Fan: “?”
"Mr. Egg, your seat is row 10, seat D, right here." The flight attendant smiled and pointed to an empty seat next to Bai Fan.
"Oh! Thank you!" The blond young man was very happy. Apparently his flight information had been retrieved and verified, and the loss certificate had also been issued.
Bai Fan: “…”
Bai Fan stood up silently, silently let the blond young man in and sit in his real seat, and then sat down again silently.
After the stewardess settled the "careless" passenger, she left in a happy mood. The blond young man was also in high spirits, looking around curiously as before, while talking to Bai Fan enthusiastically.
"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. I sat in almost the same seat no matter where I sat before. It seems that I am very lucky today!"
“…”
"I'm so lucky. I feel like something good will happen today...! I should have drawn a card before boarding the plane. I'm sure it would be good... Hahaha!"
“…”
Bai Fan understood that this guy was a very talkative person.
And he just doesn't like being familiar with others, especially talking too much.
So Bai Fan said nothing, and continued to read the newspaper with a wooden face, and put on earplugs by the way.
The blond young man failed in his attempt to strike up a conversation, but he didn't care. He continued to look around with interest and successfully struck up a conversation with a girl sitting in front of him.
The two were chatting animatedly, but Bai Fan didn't hear anything because he was wearing earplugs. But when he finished reading the newspaper and looked up again, he found that the person sitting next to him was groping in the seat, as if looking for something.
"On the right, below the right handrail." The little girl in front kept gesturing.
Bai Fan took a quick look and immediately understood - this person was probably not sitting comfortably and was looking for the button to adjust the seat angle.
Sure enough, the blond young man quickly found the location of the button. He pressed it, and the seat back tilted back a little bit. He pressed it again, and the seat back tilted back a little bit again.
The two “little bits” added together are approximately equal to the “zero tilt” visible to the naked eye.
Bai Fan was a little speechless. Seeing that the other person looked like a complete novice, it was probably not just his first time riding an airplane, he had never even ridden an interstellar train before, right? Otherwise, how could he not even know how to adjust the seat in the most basic way?
Bai Fan was just hesitating whether to tell this "newbie" how to operate specifically when he heard the blond young man mutter "Why is there no response...", and then he pressed and held the button for a long time without letting go.
Bai Fan's eyes twitched, and the girl in front of him hurriedly said, "Ah! Don't..."
With a clang, the back of the young man's seat fell straight down, and then there was a scream from behind - "Ah!!"
The blond young man was stunned, the little girl in front of him was stunned, and Bai Fan silently held his forehead and put his earplugs back on.
Even so, as a fat black shadow stood up from behind, a big man's rough and angry voice still clearly reached Bai Fan's ears, making his scalp numb.
"What are you doing in front of me? Are you looking for a fight? Are you itching for a beating?!"
***
Eggers was very regretful.
He regretted that when his subordinates asked to go with him, he not only refused, but also waved his hand arrogantly - "No need! We are going to sneak in disguised as ordinary passengers this time. How can ordinary passengers bring their subordinates with them? I am enough!"
That’s enough!
He is in urgent need of a bodyguard and translator!!
Who can tell him which planet's dialect this 200-pound fat man is cursing in? ? And whether he needs to take defensive measures immediately to avoid being beaten into a pig's head? ? But what if he causes a riot and exposes his identity! !
Eggers was caught in a dilemma and contradiction.
As far as he knew, his cousin Olloy was always alone when he traveled. If someone insisted on following him, he would get furious. So Eggers always thought that traveling alone was just fine, and even freer and more convenient. But it turned out that this was not the case for him at all...
Damn it, if he had known this would happen, he shouldn’t have been so arrogant when he went out in disguise for the first time. He was also crazy, how could he take it for granted that he would be compared with that perverted cousin!
The big man was still cursing in the dialect of an unknown planet, and even rolled up his sleeves to fight, but was stopped by the crew members who arrived in time. Eggers secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quietly took back the half-pulled supernatural card, and apologized honestly, with sincere words and a sincere attitude. In the end, after much persuasion, the big man stopped pursuing the matter.
It's finally quiet.
—— Eggers and Bai Fan thought at the same time with a sense of relief.
Bai Fan glanced at his watch. There were still fourteen hours to go before the destination. He hoped that everything would go smoothly. At least, he would stop making so much noise. He wanted to have a good rest.
Eggers also glanced at his watch: Damn, I have to stay in this cramped and simple aircraft for fourteen hours. It's so boring and stuffy. How can I endure it! !
***
Half an hour later, beautiful, dignified and enthusiastically smiling flight attendants came in pushing beverage carts and distributed free drinks to the passengers.
"Sir, what kind of drink would you like?" A flight attendant pushed a cart to Bai Fan's row and asked with a smile.
Before Bai Fan could speak, Eggers beside him perked up and spoke first.
"Give me a bottle of Coulson Blue Fruit Wine, thank you!"
What the hell?
The flight attendant's smile froze for a moment, then she replied gently and kindly.
"I'm sorry sir, we don't serve alcohol on this flight. You can choose your favorite flavor from these drinks."
"Oh..." Eggers was a little disappointed, but still compromised, "Then have a bottle of happy water."
"OK."
The stewardess picked up a large bottle of happy water swiftly, poured a cupful of it, and then bent over to hand it over. Unexpectedly, the blond young man did not take the plastic cup, but took the whole bottle of happy water instead, his movements were extremely smooth, his expression was extremely natural, and his demeanor was extremely calm.
Flight attendant & Bai Fan: "..."
Shocked by the passenger's "self-awareness" and "shamelessness", the flight attendant was stunned for a long while before she reacted and quickly said.
"Sir, this cup is for you."
"Oh, it's okay, I'm used to drinking directly from the big bottle." Eggers smiled casually and confidently - of course, this was false.
If he directly picked up a big bottle and poured the drink into his mouth at home, his father would beat him to death and scold him for humiliating the noble demeanor. But now he is not a noble who needs to pretend to be one. He wants to experience the generosity and freedom of the common people!
The flight attendant was completely shocked by the other party's shamelessness and forgot to stop him for a moment. Seeing the young man holding the large bottle and about to pour it into his mouth, Bai Fan couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to stop him.
“This is a public resource. You can’t just…”
Before Bai Fan could finish his words, Eggers was suddenly interrupted and lost his balance, so a large bottle of happy water spilled out, just soaking Bai Fan from head to toe.
Bai Fan: “…”
Eggers: “…”
Flight attendant: “…”
For the first time in his life, Bai Fan cursed in his heart -
MMP.
***
Fortunately, there were some clean clothes in his carry-on luggage. With the help of the flight attendant, Bai Fan used their lounge to take a simple shower and change into clean clothes. When he returned to his seat with an expressionless face, he saw the culprit sitting quietly in his seat. When he saw him, he immediately spoke earnestly.
"I'm sorry." The blond young man looked quite intimidating when he was serious. At least the annoying stupidity faded a lot. "I really didn't mean it. I'm really, really sorry."
Bai Fan glanced at the other person coldly - he never liked to waste words with people he was not familiar with, but this time... he really had to speak out.
"What's wrong with taking a flight for the first time?" Bai Fan said, "Why should you hide it? Everyone has a first time. If you don't understand something, just say it directly. Ask when you need to. Don't pretend to know something you don't, and don't be self-righteous. Doing so will not only make you uncomfortable, but also cause a lot of trouble to the people around you."
"Yes, yes, yes. Right, right, right." Eggers agreed repeatedly with a very good attitude. "This is indeed my first time on an airplane. I shouldn't pretend to know something when I don't. I should ask questions when I don't understand. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."
He did feel guilty. He was such a cool and handsome guy, but he got soaked. Anyone would bear a grudge against him for life. But the other person didn't beat him up or scold him. He even said in a very friendly way that he could "ask if he didn't understand." His teaching attitude was even better than that of his own tutor.
What a good man! Eggers thought with emotion.
***
Bai Fan felt that he was wrong.
Totally wrong.
He shouldn't have said "Ask if you don't understand", because this directly led to the noise in his ears for several hours. From the details of taking the plane to the customs and habits of the twelve galaxies in the Federation, no matter how big or small, the other party asked all of them with great interest.
Bai Fan felt that this person was not only riding a spacecraft for the first time.
He was probably a complete otaku—the kind who had never left the house since birth! So he had no common sense and was terribly ignorant!
"Mr. Egg." Bai Fan finally couldn't help but interrupt him.
Yes, even though he didn't want to remember this person's name at all, he even knew the other person's name through the other person's nagging questions and self-introduction!
"I'm going to rest now. Please talk to me later if you have any questions." Bai Fan said.
Eggers was still not satisfied, but when he saw that the other party was indeed tired, he shut up. Suddenly he thought of something, and Eggers couldn't help but happily add another sentence.
"Okay, since you're going to that exhibition later, I'll go over there too. We can continue chatting on the way. ^_^"
I must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and collect more local information to make it easier to find people later. Otherwise, I will be in the dark and I don’t know how many jokes I will make.
Bai Fan's mind buzzed. He just mentioned it casually, but the other party actually took it seriously and wanted to go with him. Doesn't this guy have his own ideas and itinerary? How can he just go and leave as he pleases? ?
But seeing that silly and expectant face, Bai Fan was too embarrassed to pour cold water on him. He thought about it and realized that among the people he knew, only someone with a good temper like Ke Jin could tolerate such a heavy chatterbox.
I'm sorry, Xiao Ke. Bai Fan thought silently.
I don’t want the first three months’ salary, I will give it to you when we get to the exhibition! I really can’t stand it anymore!!
***
Ke Jin rushed to the interstellar terminal on the outskirts of Qinglan City on time.
The exhibition was almost ready, and would officially start in two days. Ke Jin had a rare free day today, so he took Ounuo for a stroll in the city during the day, and took a taxi to pick up Bai Fan in the evening. Gu Qianqian and her friends' flights also landed at about the same time, so they all got together for dinner to welcome Bai Fan.
"Do we have to go all the way to pick him up at the airport?" Ou Luoyi was a little dissatisfied with Ke Jin for paying so much attention to Bai Fan. "It's not his first time to take a flight. Why don't we just send him the address and let him meet us at the hotel after getting off the plane?"
"How can it have the same meaning whether I pick you up or not?" Ke Jin knew Ou Nuo very well now, and immediately stroked his fur, "If you were coming back from a long journey, I would definitely come to pick you up at the airport no matter how busy I am, even if you are grown up."
The boy was really happy and relieved, and no longer had any objections. The two of them arrived at the departure hall, squeezed in the crowd of people, and looked at the passengers coming out one after another.
Soon, Ke Jin saw Bai Fan walking towards here with his luggage, but he was not alone - there was a strange blond man following him. The man was wearing a somewhat alternative sports suit and was talking to Bai Fan happily, as if he had a good relationship with Bai Fan.
Hmm? Is this Bai Fan's friend? Ke Jin was a little puzzled.
When we were communicating with each other before, I didn’t hear Bai Fan mention that he had companions traveling with us?
While thinking, Ke Jin waved his hands and shouted happily.
"Bai Fan! This way!"
The two men looked up at Ke Jin at the same time. Bai Fan's frown relaxed slightly, and he waved to Ke Jin with a faint smile. However, the young man beside him paused, stood there like a fool for a moment, and then shouted in a voice that could be heard throughout the exit hall.
"Cousin?!!!!"
Bai Fan: Hmm?
Ke Jin: Hmm? ?
Oloy: ...Hmm????
