Chapter 286: A Major Discovery

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Minako Sakurai has worked as a flight attendant on this international route for two years. Men were always trying to pick her up. After every flight, she’d get some phone numbers and business cards, often from young, good looking, and successful men. Of course, among them, there were always a few men who were older but didn’t want to admit it.

There’s quite a few excellent men, and sometimes, one of them would tempt her, but no one has been as memorable as Meng Fan.

Is Meng Fan attractive?

Of course, he is. To Minako Sakurai, or maybe to many people, Meng Fan is very attractive, and his appeal is very unique.

Meng Fan’s smile was the most wonderful smile to Minako Sakurai. His voice was also lethally attractive to her.

After Minako Sakurai returned, she thought that it must be wonderful to fall asleep with the sound of his voice.

Coincidentally, Meng Fan was the kind of tall and buff guy she’s always liked.

Even though Meng Fan may have tried to talk to her because of her resemblance to Yua Mikami, she didn’t think it was creepy. She was a little shy about it, and thought it was scintillating.

After they parted ways, Minako Sakurai could think of nothing but Meng Fan’s smile and voice, both of which seemed addictive.

Though she had his number, she hesitated to call. She wanted to be reserved. Since he asked for her number, he would call her, right?

She waited and waited.

He must be busy!

She waited some more.

Minako Sakurai tried to convince herself, but a voice told her that if he was just visiting Singapore, he might leave today or tomorrow. Her vacation was ending soon, too. If she missed him, she’d never see him again.

Minako Sakurai wasn’t dreaming of some happily ever after, but she really wanted this wonderful encounter to last longer.

Around noon, Meng Fan still hadn’t called. Before she was about to call him, her colleague knocked on her door to say a group of them were going to Universal Studios. Minako Sakurai became excited; this was a perfect opportunity. She instantly called Meng Fan. To her happy surprise, Meng Fan was already there, and he would wait for her there.

Overjoyed, Minako Sakurai didn’t think about why Meng Fan would rather tour Universal Studios himself without asking her.

Minako Sakurai went with four other people: three were her colleagues from the same flight, with one couple about to be married, and one colleague who brought along his girlfriend. This was ideal. She was the only single person in the group, and with Meng Fan joining, it’d be perfect!

…

When Meng Fan got Minako Sakurai’s call to join them at Universal Studios, he was pretty surprised. He had plans to ask Minako Sakurai out. He just wasn’t sure he could find out the information he needed, but he was hoping for some results. He agreed to go out with her and said he was already at Universal.

He was bored while waiting for her. After taking out his phone, he chatted with Wu Tong. He did feel a little guilty as he was using himself as bait.

After chatting, he went to check the photos using his live stream assistant. He browsed the photos, then went back to the beginning of the timeline, which was when he left last night. Soon, he saw a group of what looked like the flight crew. In the back of the group were the flight attendants, one of whom was Minako Sakurai.

“Flight crew?”

Meng Fan wasn’t sure if this flight crew worked the day of the plane hijacking. After a closer look, he could recognize a few faces. He thought at least a few of them were from the same crew.

He scanned the front of the group. His brows furrowed. After checking a few times, he slowed down and zoomed in. His eyes lit up.

One of the people in the crew looked very familiar. The more he looked at the man’s face, the more Meng Fan thought it was one of the hijackers.

“It must be him!”

“One of the hijackers was from the flight crew!”

The discovery made Meng Fan overjoyed but also very creeped out.

Then, Meng Fan searched and looked through photos of all crew members on this Japanese airline. After comparing the names and photos, he found the man’s name: Showta Takashimaya!

He checked the rest of the crew to make sure there were no other hijackers among them. To be accurate, the other hijacker he remembered was not a crew member, and he wasn’t certain if there were hijackers he didn’t remember!

Maybe there weren’t other hijackers.

Just having one is terrifying!

Afterwards, Meng Fan searched for more information about Showta Takashimaya. There wasn’t much, and most of the information wasn’t about this particular Showta Takashimaya.

The limited information didn’t offer much that was useful.

Showta Takashimaya had elderly parents and a younger brother. He had a girlfriend who was also in the flight crew. They were getting married soon.

The man shouldn’t be so fatalistic based on his background.

Of course, useful information was often hard to find online.

At least he found one hijacker, which was a fantastic breakthrough.

Now that he thought about it, approaching Minako Sakurai was a good idea. He now had a way to find more about Showta Takashimaya. He wasn’t sure how to learn more and whether to use Minako Sakurai. This wasn’t something he should rush. He needed to tread carefully here.

Yet, this matter that Meng Fan couldn’t rush was happening now!

Showta Takashimaya was in Minako Sakurai’s group at Universal.

“My friend, Meng Fan!”

When Minako Sakurai saw Meng Fan, she hurried and then forced herself to slow down to not seem too eager. When she reached him, her eyes lingered on him for a second before she turned around to introduce him to her group of colleagues.

“This is my friend, Meng Fan.” Minako Sakurai first used Japanese to introduce Meng Fan, then introduced her friends to him. “Meng Fan, this is Mr. Ohno and his girlfriend.”

“Hello, hello.”

“Nice to meet you.

“Meng Fan, this is Mr. Takashimaya. This is Shino, his fiance.”

Meng Fan made himself act as normal as possible when shaking Showta Tashimaya’s hand. He then nodded at the fiancée, Shino Shibuya.

Showta Tashimaya kept a sincere smile on his face. “Pleased to meet you.”

Shino Shibuya first bowed, then her eyes glowed. Using a soft and flirty tone, she replied in Chinese, “Mr. Meng Fan, you really are very handsome!”

Anger flared in Showta Tashimaya’s eyes, but the rage wasn’t directed at Meng Fan; rather, it was for his fiancée.
