Goode didn't know how he got back to the temporary settlement.
When we arrived at the door, it was almost dusk. People who had been busy all day were returning to their residences one after another. The smoke and shouts were wafting all over the place. Although there is endless work every day, everyone's expressions are full of vitality, and it does not look like a settlement for migrants.
What gives them vitality is the hope that as long as they are busy for one day, they can fill their stomachs for several days. If they are busy for ten days and a half months, they can add two eggs or a piece of steak to the bowl, so people naturally If you live up to your expectations, what will you be like if you are busy for a year and a half? With this hope in mind, everyone's voice became a lot louder. Although the temporary residence was dirty and noisy, it was not as gloomy and gloomy as the slums.
Everything here is in color.
Except for Goode.
The more he looked at the smiles of the neighbors, the more dizzy he felt, as if a voice kept echoing in his heart, "Look what you have done, idiot, you have destroyed everything you managed to get!"
That's right, if he didn't shout out that voice and accept the punishment honestly, he would still be a member of the Aerial Knight Academy. Even if you can't be a driver, it's a good job, at least much better than staying as a refugee.
Obviously, he answered without hesitation at the time, but when Her Royal Highness really agreed, the courage receded like a tide, and all that was replaced was guilty conscience and fear.
If he fails, he really has nothing.
Goode pushed open the door a little absentmindedly and walked into the house.
A crisp voice sounded, "Good, you are back, look at what I did!"
Rachel happily ran to him, pushed him to the table and pressed it down, then lifted the porcelain pot that covered the plate, "Dang Dang Dang egg pancake, how about it?"
The eggs and wheat cakes on the plate are divided into upper and lower layers. It is more like fried eggs on the wheat cakes than egg pancakes. However, this is not a failed dish. The egg whites are very thin, with a circle of browned and curled around, and the orange egg center is slightly raised, and it still maintains the smoothness when it is not solidified. The fully melted butter is sandwiched between the two, dripping into the plate from the gap, exuding an attractive fragrance.
Apparently Rachel put a lot of effort into this dinner.
Goode was stunned, "You bought eggs?" Although the price of Neverwinter City is not high, it is still not a common dish for them.
"Well," Rachel handed the wooden fork in front of him, "Today, I went to the convenience market with Uncle Budge. Don't worry, I still have some savings left, and it's rare for you to take a day off. It's okay to eat once in a while. Besides, if you become an official Aerial Knight, your savings will come back very quickly, I know it!" She patted her chest after she finished speaking.
Goode took the fork stiffly. "Say... that's right."
"Don't say anything, try my craft first." Rachel said expectantly.
He hesitated for a moment, then slowly forked the soft egg into his mouth. In an instant, the heart of the egg spewed out, fused with the mellowness of the butter, and instantly filled his entire mouth.
And this delicacy also hit the deepest part of his heart.
They fled all the way from Wolf Heart to the western part of Greycastle. The two of them had suffered enough. They didn't even dare to think about food like this. But after arriving in Neverwinter City, the situation has miraculously improved. Not only has the residence stabilized, but a life without food and clothing is just around the corner. Even the "egg pancakes" he eats, Rachel might be able to eat one every day. Instead of sitting by and watching him eat as long as he stays in the academy.
Indeed, he is desperate to fly to the sky, but is it really worth it to block everything
I had nothing to lose before, but now it's different.
He clearly promised to take good care of her.
That being the case, why did he make such a choice out of his own selfish thoughts
He even promised Finkin to peek at the plane because he was thinking only of himself.
Such a selfish person, now eating the food made by the other party's heart, is really abhorrent, isn't it!
"How is it, it should be... OK? I haven't done this kind of thing for a long time, and I don't know if my craftsmanship has regressed." Rachel said with five fingers, "Hey, is it okay? You can say something... Wait a minute. , why are you crying? Did I do such a bad job?"
"No..." Goode shoved something into his mouth while weeping, "Yummy, you made it so delicious, I just...I just couldn't help..."
Rachel was stunned for a moment, then got up and walked to his side, reached out and pressed his head to ask softly, "What happened?"
"I'm sorry... I may not be able to stay at the academy any longer..."
Intermittently, Goode spoke out about everything he had done.
"So that's what happened," Rachel said after a long silence, "I just want to ask you one question. Do you… like flying?"
"I" Good opened his mouth, and under the direct gaze of the other party, he found that he couldn't say anything against his heart, and nodded after a long time.
"That's it." Rachel smiled, "From childhood to adulthood, this is the first time you have something you want to do, right? Even if you take me out of that place, I took the initiative to propose it. Wolf Heart, you are still on the road of escape, you have paid a lot for me, and these should have nothing to do with you, how can you be a selfish guy who can do this?"
"But I..."
"The worst outcome is to start from scratch, right?" She tilted her head and said, "And I am literate. Even if I don't do... those things, I can still find a lot of work. So whether it is successful or not, try your best to do it. Just do it."
"Is that... is it really possible?"
"Anyway, it's too late to regret it. It's better to cut off other thoughts and focus on the fight. Of course, next time you encounter this kind of thing, it's better to think twice, and don't get too hot for a while."
Goode stared at her for a while, "I think sometimes you know more than I do."
"Age doesn't equal knowledge. You insisted on making me your sister." Rachel muttered, then smiled, "If you're expelled from the academy, just call me sister."
…
The next day, Air Knight Airfield.
Sixteen reserve team members lined up and stood at the end of the runway as the first batch of qualified candidates, and they would also be the first to accept the test flight.
Four brand-new planes slowly slid out of the hangar and parked in front of everyone.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone looked at these four beautiful cars with great interest, and their ears were filled with excitement.
Finkin and Heinz looked sullen.
Goode closed his eyes.
Feeling the cool morning wind blowing in front of him, he tried to grasp the feeling in his mind. The day-to-day training, the instructor's teaching, and the moment when he held the grip of the real machine, several pictures kept rotating, gradually becoming indistinguishable from each other. .
When Tilly appeared in front of the team, everyone knelt down on one knee, and Finkin also pulled Goode by the way.
"Meet Your Highness the Princess!"
"Get up," Tilly swept across the crowd with an expressionless face, "although this is the first time you have seen these planes, they are far from unfamiliar. Whether it is the illustrations of the textbook or the study of the principles, they are all based on unicorns. It is designed for the template, and they are the optimized version of the unicorn, which is more stable in terms of performance. As long as you follow the training steps, you can basically complete the simplest flight. However, considering that you are going to the sky for the first time , I will fly near the driver's seat as a guide, remind you step by step what to do, and grade it according to the performance. Of course, if I can say nothing, it is undoubtedly the best performance."
She paused for a moment and then said, "However, I can't rule out that some people will make mistakes, make mistakes, or even fall down with such a simple operation, so I specially invited Miss Nana. Now she is in the flight field, as long as she doesn't die immediately, The loser can survive. But that also means that your score will be greatly reduced. If you can't improve after many training sessions, you will be eliminated from the team, so I hope you can do your best and do your best. In addition, if there is a serious mistake that causes the plane to be destroyed, the score will be directly reset to zero, after all, the academy doesn't have so many planes for you to waste, understand?"
"Yes, Your Highness!" The sixteen people said in unison.
"Then let's start, the first pilot, Goode." Tilly said solemnly.
Goode took a deep breath, stepped forward, and climbed into the cockpit along the wing. 8)
