Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 260

After failing to contact the flight, the control tower immediately realized something might be wrong and reported it up the chain.

"Should we contact the police?"

"Not yet..." the Boss showed hesitation.

"Why not?"

"Remember the false alarm last month? Making such a big fuss without confirmation will affect the company's stock price. Let's keep trying to contact them first."

Only two to three hours passed after that phone call.

Then this Boss started receiving inquiring calls: "Has your company's flight gone missing?"

The Boss was stunned: "How did you know?"

The caller was equally surprised: "The news first spread in Asia, and now the whole world probably knows about it."

"Asia? Where in Asia did this news come from?"

"You don't know yet? There seems to be family members of some Hua Country tycoon on that flight. And there's someone even more important - I heard Hua Country officials are already involved."

The Boss looked out at the night sky.

In the middle of the night... He couldn't even finish this call when his own superior suddenly called.

"Wake up! Get to the accident site immediately. Either the people on the plane are alive, or you're dead."

The man was startled and scrambled out of bed.

On the other end of the line, the Boss slowly put down his phone and said coldly: "My stance is very clear, with no concealment or cover-up."

Wei Wenyi sat on the edge of the desk, moving the gun barrel slightly away.

Wei Wenjuan sat in the leather chair opposite, his expression cold: "You better pray for good news... I know you have the Morgan family as your backing, but I can risk my life - I'll still kill your entire family."

The Boss's face immediately turned as dark as if he had eaten dirt.

As news spread like snowflakes.

Peru's airport suddenly welcomed countless VIPs.

"This is the approximate crash zone range based on the time of lost contact," the staff member opened the map and drew a large circle.

Just as he finished speaking, he felt a chill. Looking up, he saw all the big shots staring at him coldly.

The staff member instantly corrected himself: "This is the missing zone range."

At this point, arguing whether the plane was missing or crashed didn't matter much anymore.

Historically, no missing flight had ever returned safely. The famous MH370 hasn't even been found to this day...

The staff member gathered his courage, but these VIPs still needed to be dealt with...

After listening to the search and rescue arrangements and situation briefing with an expressionless face, Sheng Yuxiao got up and walked out, taking the helmet from his bodyguard.

"The helicopter is parked on the east side," the bodyguard whispered in his ear.

Sheng Yuxiao nodded.

Xu Ruying had just arrived, stumbling into the temporary command center: "Sheng Yuxiao, Sheng Yuxiao! My parents..."

She supported herself on her knees, her body involuntarily hunching over.

"How... how could this happen?" Xu Ruying gasped for air, struggling to breathe.

Sheng Yuxiao grabbed her arm and handed her to a nearby bodyguard.

"Sit and wait," Sheng Yuxiao's tone seemed indifferent.

Xu Ruying looked up and saw Sheng Yuxiao's tense face. In the dim light, his expression seemed devoid of any humanity.

Xu Ruying waited like this for three days.

Her sleep got worse and worse as she watched countless people coming and going, day and night, without cease.

Social media users had even started posting memorials.

Seeing this made her heart burn with countless entangled flames, making her restless day and night... Others seemed much calmer.

"Sheng Yuxiao, aren't you afraid?"

"We still can't find the plane..."

"The search and rescue teams don't dare go deeper into the jungle because it's too complex..."

"They're saying there's no chance of survival for anyone on the plane."

Sheng Yuxiao lowered his eyes and spat out two words through his teeth: "Bullshit!"

"I heard you're planning to go into the jungle with guides tomorrow," Xu Ruying looked up, "Don't get lost."

"Our family can't lose another person..." Xu Ruying could barely hold back her tears.

"Mm." Sheng Yuxiao only gave a brief response, saying nothing more.

Conserving energy.

Meanwhile.

Because many instruments in the cockpit were damaged, they couldn't continue along the original flight path to reach Peru airport.

The plane couldn't fly around aimlessly in the sky either - without guidance, they could easily collide with other aircraft in different flight paths.

So after circling for a while, they made an emergency landing nearby.

In the pitch-black night... they won their gamble!

They landed in the jungle instead of the Amazon River.

Trees were knocked down, the nose was damaged, but because the fuel had been properly consumed, there was no explosion after landing.

They even managed to get their luggage.

"Change into long sleeves and pants!"

"Use tree branches as walking sticks! Test every step before taking it!"

Fortunately, these travelers heading to Peru had packed plenty of clothing and medicine suitable for the local climate.

"The airplane meals won't be enough, and the jungle temperature will make them spoil quickly. We might starve to death here before rescue arrives..."

The co-pilot, who had earlier been frightened out of his wits when the captain pulled a gun, had now somewhat regained his senses.

But his tone was still full of pessimism.

Zhang Ruoshui looked at him puzzled: "Why would we starve? We can eat bananas, red lake fruit, cassava, palm tree core... we can even catch piranhas to eat. It's a very balanced and complete nutrition."

These words left everyone silent.

Is... is that so?

In such dire circumstances, we're still... talking about balanced nutrition?

The co-pilot slowly recovered from his shock: "Then... how do we find all this food?"

"Yes, we don't see any bananas or cassava."

Zhang Ruoshui's voice rose slightly: "Let me formally introduce—"

"Ms. Qiu Lan, zoologist from Hua Country."

"Mr. Xu Huishan, botanist from Hua Country."

Qiu Lan raised her hand and said: "Actually, my husband's colleagues are also experts in related fields."

Everyone swallowed in amazement.

But the co-pilot still had doubts: "But how do we catch piranhas? We'd need to go to the river. But there are sharks and crocodiles in the river, and if they attack, we have no weapons. We'd be sacrificing lives - who would want to go?"

Qiu Lan frowned, hoping Zhang Ruoshui wouldn't step forward this time.

The young girl was too earnest, always charging ahead. But how could she handle everything?

Should others just sit back and enjoy the benefits?

Just as Qiu Lan thought this.

Zhang Ruoshui looked at the co-pilot puzzled: "Who says we don't have weapons?"

"Where..."

Zhang Ruoshui pulled open Wei Zhen's clothes, pointing at the plastic bottle at his waist: "This is it."

Co-pilot: ?

Qiu Lan: "..."

Wei Zhen nearly died of anger.

Aliali: 67210a8c3a4784313d743e58

I was going to use that to kill you, and now you want to use it to catch fish? It's become your tool?

"If we really run out of food to share..." Zhang Ruoshui looked at the tied-up Wei Zhen and security guard.

"Your lives have meaning," Zhang Ruoshui said.

Wei Zhen shuddered in horror.

She couldn't be thinking about cannibalism, could she?

She'd only been raised by the Ghost family for a few years, and she'd already become this ruthless?

The passengers didn't think too much about it. After hearing Zhang Ruoshui's words, they all breathed heavy sighs of relief.

Encountering armed criminals ? forced emergency landing ? landing in the Amazon jungle.

Each scenario sounded like a hellish beginning.

But now... this was clearly a hellish start with cheat codes enabled!
