"That's true," Meiyuki nodded in agreement.

"Speaking of which, normal people shouldn't be able to enter the cockpit. Apart from the captain, even the flight attendants don't have the authority," Arashikaze Manami expressed her surprise at the behavior of the flight attendant who had just come out of the cockpit.

"This young lady seems to know a lot," Arashikaze Manami responded to the flight attendant's praise with a perfect smile.

"It's nothing, I just pay attention to these things usually," she replied.

"I see."

It seemed that the flight attendant accepted this explanation. After a slight hesitation, she spoke with some concern.

"Actually, while we managed to apprehend the hijacker smoothly, both the captain and the co-pilot were injured while subduing him. So, I went into the cockpit to assist in treating their injuries."

Upon hearing this, Ryuto asked with concern, "Oh... Are their injuries serious?"

"No, they're not very serious, just some superficial wounds."

"Will it affect flying?"

Seeing Ryuto's anxious expression, the flight attendant reassured him in a soft voice, "It shouldn't. The weather conditions are good, and the rest of the journey can be handled by autopilot. Moreover, their injuries aren't severe enough to impact flying. Don't worry, there won't be any problems. This aircraft will definitely land as planned."

"I see..."

Since the flight attendant said so, Ryuto felt relieved.

"Alright, you should all return to your seats now. If we talk for too long, other passengers might notice. Remember, don't tell anyone else," the flight attendant instructed.

"Yes."

Everyone promised to keep quiet.

"In other words, everything is fine now, Ryuto-sama. We should go as well, or else it might raise suspicion," Arashikaze Manami said.

"You're right. Creating unnecessary commotion won't help. What are you doing, dumb brother?" Ryuto's sister scolded him.

"Darling, let's go."

"It's a pity that we didn't get to see Amagi's performance this time, but we have plenty of time ahead," added another person.

It seemed that everyone agreed. Since Ryuto had things to do, he couldn't waste any more time here, so they all left.

Inside the cockpit, the flight attendant who saw everyone leave let out a troubled sigh.

"Finally gone? They were quite an unexpected bunch. I didn't expect them to witness our preparations. Useless... Well, at least we managed to get rid of them smoothly. The incident won't be leaked. Besides... those kids have no idea the disaster they've brought upon everyone here, how ironic. They thought they were doing good for everyone, but in fact, they were harming everyone. It's truly pathetic to see so many fools easily deceived, immersed in their laughable dream of helping others. And this can't be called kindness; it's merely naivety or foolishness. After all... if someone is truly kind, even if they're constantly deceived and ridiculed, they will still choose to believe in others. This perseverance, this kindness, is admirable... Unlike those who get cheated a few times and then choose to cheat others, looking for so-called 'equality.' Although it sounds ridiculous, the truth is, the majority of people belong to the latter category. After all, kind-hearted people don't live long..."

After a brief moment of silence, the flight attendant's expression shifted from what it was earlier, and a triumphant smile once again appeared on their face.

"Well then, let's get to work. The real show is about to begin."
