Guangyou's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.
hope?
Yes, this helicopter carries the hope of survival.
He was not afraid of death.
Falling from that height would probably only cause a sudden chill to the head followed by brain death, without even a hint of pain.
But I don't want to die.
He still has many things he wants to do.
For example, walking side by side through a cherry blossom grove in spring, experiencing the breathtaking beauty of this world…
For example, sitting together on a summer day to share a slice of chilled watermelon, and then smiling at each other at the end.
For example, strolling hand in hand through a maple forest in autumn, watching the falling leaves and sighing at how quickly time flies.
For example, snuggling together by a fireplace on a winter's day feels like the whole world has shrunk to just the two of you...
…
There are many more…
There are so many things I want to do, I could never finish them all in this lifetime.
He didn't want to die here!
Of course, the arrival of the helicopter seemed to be telling him that there would be plenty of time to do the things he was thinking about later!
"Ai..."
Looking out the window, his eyes reflecting the deep starry sky, Guangyou said, "I used to be a materialist."
He wasn't lying. Before coming into this world, he was a true materialist who held only a slight awe for supernatural events, but didn't believe in them.
"Me too."
After saying that, Ai added, "It used to be like that, but now... things have changed a bit."
"But what do you mean by that?"
This statement seemed completely unrelated to what was happening now, and Ai didn't know why Mitsuyu would suddenly say this to her.
"I used to be a materialist."
Guangyou repeated the sentence he had just said, which had nothing to do with the current situation, and then said, "But after meeting you, I hope there will be an afterlife."
As he said those words, Guangyou suddenly asked himself, "Would this be considered a cheesy pickup line?"
Who cares? Corny pickup lines are corny pickup lines, as long as they work.
Although it sounded a bit like a cheesy pickup line, the effect was obvious. After hearing it, Ai couldn't help but smile and muttered to herself, "That's not enough."
After finishing his charade, Guangyou turned his attention back to the helicopter.
During the conversation, the helicopter had already flown to the Ferris wheel and was now hovering in mid-air.
The side door of the helicopter was opened, and the sound, amplified by a loudspeaker, resounded through the night sky.
"Please do not panic. Stay in the cabin and do not move around. We will rescue you."
After reassuring the trapped people as usual, it was time to begin the rescue operation. They had made preparations on the way, such as using rope ladders.
There were quite a few people trapped on the Ferris wheel, not counting the few who had already been rescued, there were still more than a dozen left.
Police helicopters have limited passenger space, so if they want to rescue everyone on the Ferris wheel, they have to make four or five trips back and forth.
"It's very inefficient."
Guangyou couldn't help but complain about Japan's slow rescue speed. If this were in China, he would probably be standing on the ground by now.
At least you could send two helicopters to take turns rescuing people; wouldn't that save some time?
Now that these people have come to his rescue, Guangyou can't really say anything, since they have no obligation to save him. He is still quite grateful to these people.
He was just worried that the cabin wouldn't hold up by the time it reached his side.
Thanks to the driver's experience and skill, the entire rescue process went very smoothly, and it was only a few minutes before it was Guangyou and Xiao Ai's turn to be in the cockpit.
The Ferris wheel's power supply had been damaged, and given that it was already past 9 p.m., the rescue personnel in the helicopter discovered that there were two children in the cabin.
Rescuers used a megaphone to shout into the cockpit, "Little friend, please don't be afraid..."
Halfway through the conversation, Guangyou twitched the corner of his mouth. For some reason, the words suddenly brought to mind a man's large face, a man who seemed to be... "Troll Warlord"?
He remembered that the troll warrior had said something similar, something like "Oli Gei" at the end.
Coming to his senses, Guangyou suddenly admired himself for being able to daydream even in this situation.
"Please don't be afraid. Carefully open the cockpit door, then climb the ladder. We'll take you down soon!"
Kōyū gave the helicopter a thumbs-up, just like he does with Kuuga, to show he understood. Then, he carefully pulled Ai along to the door. It was only less than half a meter away, but Kōyū made it seem like he walked dozens of meters.
Each step causes the cockpit to shake slightly, like a lottery; if you're unlucky, the entire cockpit could fall.
As I opened the door, the evening breeze made the rope ladder sway a few times in the air.
Kōyū looked at Ai, his words carrying an undeniable authority: "You go up first."
After a slight hesitation, Ai nodded. Even though the evening breeze was a bit chilly, she felt as if she were by a campfire, her heart warmed.
Kōyū carefully helped Ai slowly approach the rope ladder, knowing that climbing it would mean being rescued.
"Squeak..."
Suddenly, a faint sound reached Guangyou's ears.
The sound was indeed soft, but in Guangyou's mind it was like a thunderclap.
"not good!"
Kōyū quickly reached out and pulled Ai back into his arms, but just as his hand was about to touch Ai, the entire cockpit suddenly tilted violently.
Ai lost her balance and fell forward.
