Chapter 1

“Everyone, listen up! The pilot activated a self-destruct program. We’re going to crash in fifteen minutes. I need two people to help me restrain him. I know how to fly. I can get us all down safely!” I said in a loud and urgent voice. Yet everyone in the cabin treated me like a lunatic. No one paid any attention to me.Suddenly, a glass bottle flew over and hit me on the head. I felt warm liquid trickling down my forehead.Simon Xanders walked over from first class. He was Brooke Smith’s new boyfriend. Brooke was my first love. He slapped me twice. The pain made me lose my balance. I felt slightly dizzy from it.“What are you talking about? The pilot is my uncle. He has a happy family and a great life. Why would he crash the plane?”Brooke joined in and mocked me.“Don’t tell me you’re making a scene just because we made fun of you earlier. Let me spell it out for you, Justin. I stopped liking you a long time ago. Quit dreaming!”I tried to stand up. She deliberately stuck o

Simon suddenly let go. The entire crowd burst into laughter.I saw every passenger look at me with a disgusted expression. Even Anna, the only one who had shown me kindness, had a somewhat repulsed expression.I looked down. The suffocation had made me lose control of my bladder.Simon doubled over laughing.“Look at this pathetic loser. He was so scared that he wet himself. You call yourself a hero? A mutt on the side of the road has more of a backbone!”Brooke pinched her nose. She took out perfume and sprayed it around her.“I thought you were actually somebody special. Look at you. My darling scared you so bad that you wet your pants. I only felt sorry for you, so I dated you for three days. I can’t believe you’re still hung up on me. You’re totally out of my league.”The blood spilling from my head blurred my vision. I was fighting so desperately to save everyone’s lives. Why would they not believe me? Not a single person was willing to stand up for me.In my disappointmen

“The passengers didn’t hurt you. If you have a grudge, just take it out on your wife. Why drag innocent people into this?”Lucas stopped walking. His face twisted with anger.“The man she cheated with is on this plane. I want him to pay. Why do I have to suffer so much while all of you get to live happily? I want every last one of you to die with me!”He then smiled and sneered. “Young man, I’ve been watching you. You got beaten black and blue, and you’re still desperate to save people. But did anyone care about you? They’re not worth saving. They all deserve to die.”After saying this, he left.I sat on the stool and struggled with all my might. I estimated that we had about five minutes remaining. Time was running out.A sound came from the storage locker. I hooked my leg around it and pulled it open. To my surprise, I saw the co-pilot, Edward Fisher. His face and body were beaten bloody.“I’m Edward, the co-pilot. Quick! Go stop Lucas. He’s going to destroy the plane.”F

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.The plane began to jolt violently. Everyone covered their ears. They wailed in agony.“A bunch of stupid idiots who wouldn’t listen. You deserve to die. I’m out of here!”Edward quickly ran to the emergency exit. He picked up a parachute and was about to jump.I hastily grabbed his hand.“Edward, you’re just leaving like that? What about everyone else?”“There’s nothing I can do about them. I should’ve known there’s no reasoning with these idiots. You should run too. The self-destruct timer is counting down. In less than a hundred seconds, this plane is going down. You won’t even have ashes left to bury.”Without hesitation, he pushed me aside. Then, he opened the parachute and jumped.The plane was still falling. I looked at the terrified passengers with gritted teeth. I picked up the only remaining parachute and prepared to jump.Suddenly, Brooke hugged me from behind.She was nothing like the cruel person she had been a moment a

I took the key and opened the cockpit door. The man with glasses and Anna followed me inside.The man with glasses crouched down and tinkered with the controls for a moment. The plummeting sensation crushed his chest and made it impossible to catch his breath.He said, “Once the self-destruct program starts, there’s no way to cancel it. We have to find a good spot to crash-land.”Anna looked at the map system and then said, “We’re surrounded by water. Only the ocean lies below us. A crash-landing is going to be really tough.”The man with the glasses put his head in his hands. He looked anxious and in pain.“Then, what do we do now? Are you saying there’s nothing we can do except sit here and wait to die?”I pushed past them and sat down in the captain’s seat. I took the control stick and eased the descent down to the minimum speed.A few seconds later, the plane felt noticeably steadier.“I’m going to try rebooting the system now. You! Get on the radio and put out a mayday cal

The plane made it close to the ground. However, because of inertia, it refused to come to a halt.The other three people had already passed out. No one was there to help me.I endured the excruciating pain. Relying on what little consciousness I had left, I applied the brakes and engaged the thrust reversers to slow the plane down.Finally, the plane came to a complete stop. It was moments away from crashing through the landing strip’s protective railing.I let out a long breath. All the tension inside me finally eased. My vision went dark, and I passed out.When I woke up again, it was early the next morning. Just then, the hospital room door opened, and two men in uniforms walked in. “Justin Helm, you are suspected of serious violations of the law. Please come with us.”I was completely confused. I committed a crime? Was this a joke?I had clearly saved every single person on that plane.However, I had no choice. I could only go with them.On the way, I ran into Brooke

With that evidence, clearing my own name was only a matter of time.However, before that, I needed to confirm one thing.My driver dropped me off at the hospital. I put on a mask and sunglasses before heading to the ward.Anna and the man in glasses were both still unconscious.It seemed they had not sold me out. My mood improved slightly.I left a handwritten note for both of them.I believed that when they woke up, they would be willing to serve as my witnesses.That same evening, I announced to the entire internet that I would hold a clarification press conference the next day. It would be broadcast live.The next day, I arrived at the venue. Many reporters had already come early to stake out the place.As soon as the press conference began, just as I had expected, Brooke and some of the passengers who had woken up stormed into the venue arrogantly.They were certain that the surveillance footage had not been restored yet.They shouted at me, “Justin, we all saw the proof

“You’re lying!” Iris panicked.I continued, “According to my investigation, Lucas wasn’t originally scheduled for this flight. He personally requested the extra shift.”Seeing that she still would not back down, I had no choice but to bring out the surveillance footage.In the staff room, the video showed Lucas beating the co-pilot and hiding him. It also showed his ugly behavior of tying me up to keep me from leaving.Lucas’ words sounded loud and clear in the entire hall.“The man she cheated with is on this plane. I want him to pay. Why do I have to suffer so much while all of you get to live happily? I want every last one of you to die with me!“Young man, I’ve been watching you. You got beaten black and blue, and you’re still desperate to save people. But did anyone care about you? They’re not worth saving. They all deserve to die.”As soon as the footage played, the crowd erupted.All the reporters were shocked. Their jaws dropped wide open.Iris tried to make a big fuss
