Chapter 391: Carpooling

"I didn't expect it to be so easy to get in!"

Maria walked into the empty engine room and sighed leisurely.

There was no thrilling infiltration, nor was a circuitous route needed; she simply changed into a workstation uniform, put on a mask, and, dragging a fuel nozzle, approached the airplane's rear door.

Seizing the moment when no one was paying attention, she slipped in like a wisp of smoke—so effortlessly that it felt surreal.

Annabelle crawled out of Maria's pocket, her ability to shrink at will proving exceedingly convenient.

Xu Yi looked around the cabin, where the lights were dim, illuminated only by the small orange lights overhead.

There were several huge metal boxes placed in the engine room, unsecured but coated in a layer of black gel.

The gel squirmed non-stop, chilling to the bone. It was obvious that the gelatinous material was not to be trifled with, so the idea of opening the metal boxes easily was laughable.
