Chapter 60 Arabian Sea, Tanker Aurora
Just as Park Jung Soo said, an outboard motorized lifeboat was approaching towards those who were adrift. The lifeboat crew helped them into the boat and then moved the rudder away from a very historic place for the four of them. The burial place of the Gulfstream I-AA who have gone through many missions with them.
Andalas bowed many times to express his gratitude when he was aboard a giant tanker that had Aurora written on its hull. He climbed last on the deck of this heavily laden ship.
They were given a change of clothes and warm blankets by the Shipmaster who appeared to be Mexican and was very friendly. While enjoying a warm drink and a plate of hot noodle soup which was immediately devoured, Lian Xi represented the story.
They jumped from the plane using a parachute because the plane they were traveling in had serious technical damage. The fuel tank is leaking and there are sparks coming from the faulty left engine. That's why the plane exploded into pieces and they landed on the surface of the ocean. Previously, they had contacted the company office and provided the coordinates so that the office staff would immediately find out from the nearest harbormaster which ship was not far away and could provide assistance. And the four of them arrived at this Aurora Ship.
Akiko gaped at Lian Xi's story, which was very complete and quite plausible. Cecilia smiled crookedly while Andalas repeatedly took sips of coffee to keep from laughing.
The captain, the officer, and the crew who gathered in the dining room were all amazed to hear Lian Xi's story. Only the 2nd Captain was still wondering in his heart. He happened to be replacing the Captain at the helm so he knew exactly when a plane was trying to climb slowly, then there was the roar of something quite loud and then the plane shattered into pieces.
After that he got a contact from someone who said that there were 4 people adrift in the ocean not far from Aurora and needed help. And that someone was not a porter at all.
But the preacher didn't want to prolong some of the oddities that made his head dizzy. He was quite happy to be able to help people in the ocean. His place to earn a living and spend more than half of his life. Can help people who almost drowned in the ocean, the same as watering thirsty people in the desert.
The 2nd Captain went back to the bridge to continue his duties after giving orders to one of the crew to take the 4 magical people to an unused room so that they could rest. Surviving an exploding plane must be exhausting for them. Born and inner.
In the cabin crew's room, Cecilia called The Kitchen and said that they were already on board the Aurora Tanker. Asked Park Jung Soo about the evacuation plan because the ship was still long enough to dock. The nearest port is in Mumbai India while the tanker is on its way to Colombo.
Park Jung Soo said that Young Huang was arranging a pick-up for them from Aurora to Mumbai to then be flown to Beijing using the billionaire's private plane.
Less than 1 hour from the end of the conversation with Park Jung Soo, a helicopter was seen hoovering over Aurora. The helicopter pilot had made contact with Captain Aurora that they were going to pick up Cecilia and friends.
After repeatedly thanking the crew who escorted them to the deck, one by one the MS-BA-30 team members were lifted up using a rescue basket pulled by a helicopter winch rope.
The helicopter moved swiftly towards Mumbai and dropped the four of them directly at Mumbai airport where Young Huang's private plane was already waiting. A Gulfstream similar to Doctor Adli Aslan's although this one has the tail number B-2000. Akiko and Cecilia both shuddered once inside the cabin of that luxurious plane. However, a Gulfstream has traumatized them deeply enough.
A few hours later the plane landed at Beijing airport. A pick-up car is available on the Apron which will take them to the City Tower. Andalas complied with Akiko's request to rest for a while in the penthouse they named Little Kitchen before continuing on to The Hague. To another place of tension that awaits them.

The Chairman smiled broadly when Step Mother on the other end of the phone congratulated him for successfully bringing down Doctor Adli Aslan's Gulfstream who brought the full team of MS-BA-30 which was difficult to conquer in the Arabian Sea. In a single act of sending their newest missile from Gangkhar Puensum, the Organization has eliminated their 2 biggest problems at once. The MS-BA-30 team and serial killer scary
Now is the time to feast because all the great barriers have been destroyed. Doctor Adli Aslan was sentenced to death and the MS-BA-30 team was killed in the Arabian Sea. Only a small pebble named Young Huang has started producing SAVE Serum on a large scale in Nyon Switzerland.
It's a trivial matter. The Chairman smiled again as he said that to Step Mother. Taking care of the Young Huang who had betrayed him was not a hundredth of a matter for Doctor Adli Aslan's team which was very difficult to hunt down and kill.

In the Little Kitchen room, Akiko waited for the water to boil while still looking at her device. She hesitated to carry out this plan. Fear of Andalas' anger. But storming the headquarters of the International Court of Justice alone is ridiculous. According to the latest information from The Kitchen, the base has just been strengthened. Dozens of CIA, GRU, and DGSE trained agents, even MI6, arrived at almost the same time.
Andalas's request to the Consultant has not been responded to at all. Andalas suspects the Consultant has been caught or even dead. Even though he really needed help from Marcos and Brando as a distraction.
Akiko wasn't afraid of death at all. Especially if it's next to Andalas. But he'd much more wanted to live longer on earth, and that was with Andalas. Akiko immediately made a decision that was unusually hard for her. She first made sure her friends weren't near the spacious kitchen.
After making sure the situation was safe, Akiko dialed some numbers on her new device. She didn't want to use the X-One because it would leave a trail and The Kitchen would be able to sniff it out.
There was a waiting tone, then when a very familiar voice said hello, did Akiko speak. Slow and a little nervous.
"Father, this is Akiko. I need your help. Very much!"
