Simulation Game: Crisis Management-Chapter 399 - 192: Hijacking?

"Sir?"

"Hoo ha..."

Gu Ji instinctively raised his arm to shield his face, breathing heavily and roughly.

But soon he realized.

He opened his eyes to see rows of familiar blue cloth-covered seats;

Oval-shaped windows;

The sunglasses-wearing lady next to him, the black older gentleman, everything seemed familiar.

Death rollback!

"Sir, are you okay?"

"Hey, sir, the stewardess is calling you."

"Thank you, I’m fine."

Gu Ji didn’t even glance at the stewardess beside him and instead raised his wrist to set a 16-minute countdown on Yasen’s smart watch.

Although he didn’t participate in the rescue operation in the last round.

He had still gathered some useful intelligence, enough for a preliminary accident assessment:

First, without player interference, the flight accident occurred about 15 minutes after the game’s start goal, with a crash roughly 7 minutes later;

Second, the main cause of the accident was "dual engine failure".

Before the crisis happened, the plane began to make a sharp turn, then suddenly nosedived at nearly 50 degrees. As it dove, the plane began to accelerate, nearing the Boeing 7M8’s disintegration limit, lasting about fifteen seconds before stopping the dive and beginning to climb;

At this point, damage occurred to the right No. 1 engine, the plane dropped again, and after a delay of several seconds, the left No. 2 engine also sustained damage, leading to the plane losing power completely. The captain made an emergency landing attempt, but ultimately crashed;

Good lord.

No wonder it doubled the accident buff.

You must know, currently most commercial aircraft engines have an inflight shutdown rate below 0.020, meaning it takes a hundred thousand hours of flying to likely encounter two single-engine failures, let alone a dual-engine failure. Who knows what went wrong with this Boeing 7M8.

But more curious than that, Gu Ji was intrigued by a few other points.

Such as why the plane was making such a sharp turn.

The captain’s action at that time felt like a car following a GPS route suddenly discovering it took the wrong path and making a hasty U-turn.

Not to mention the sudden nosedive that followed.

Even if there were issues with the aircraft’s elevators, ailerons, or gyro malfunction leading to the computer defaulting to a dive as level flight, the captain and co-pilot should intervene quickly to correct it as much as possible. After all, pilots have physical endurance far beyond average, able to sustain 4-7G acceleration, and should react quickly.

But throughout the operation process, Gu Ji only felt a single corrective pull-up maneuver, especially during the later half of the emergency landing, rushed and with drastically declined operational skill, which is why he wanted to enter the cockpit to help.

Could it be that there was a "human" problem?

[Due to physiological limitations, your cardiovascular circulation...]

At this moment, the familiar game prompt sounded in his mind.

Gu Ji squinted his eyes, suddenly unbuckling his seatbelt, standing up to open the overhead luggage compartment, finding two 20-inch carry-on suitcases, one green, one black, and a dark green outdoor backpack.

From Yasen’s attire in brown-green outdoor shirts, this backpack suited his rugged style more.

The simplest way was, of course, to open it directly.

He unzipped it in one go, finding inside an IBM laptop, a camera, and some books and notebooks, apart from the familiar [Poison Needle Trap] mine.

Before triggering, this object looked just like a disc, not attracting attention.

The item’s description also mentioned that security systems couldn’t scan its internal explosives and steel needles.

Gu Ji took out the notebook and pen.

As he opened it, he saw densely packed records of various information inside. Although the letters were the same, it wasn’t English, likely Portuguese, since Yasen was originally from Brazil.

However, from some simple drawings, the content seemed related to wilderness survival.

This indicated Yasen might be an outdoor adventure survival enthusiast.

Of course, this wasn’t the real reason Gu Ji was looking for the notes.

This flight disaster was unlike most previous levels, arriving swiftly with extremely complex technical knowledge involved. He had to take initiative, trying to interact more with the crew, or else, as in the last cycle, he’d die before completing even the initial mission objective.

Even when Gu Ji first encountered the "Crisis Management Game", only once had such a situation occurred.

He turned to a brand-new blank page, and relying on memory, began jotting down the airline, flight overview, passenger info, departure info, cruise info, etc.

That’s right.

Gu Ji was writing a flight log.

Usually owned by some aviation enthusiasts, a flight log records the flight time, route, and experiences of enthusiasts frequently flying, which can also be discussed with the crew to get the on-duty captain’s signature, marking a form of hobby documentation.

"Fuck! Are you blind? This suit is expensive!"

[Crisis begins!]

[Please choose your initial reward!]

[Navigation Specialization (Medium)] or [Strength Enhancement (Medium)]

Just as Gu Ji started recording, the initial options appeared.

And this time, he found a mark that perfectly suited the current level.

Blue [Navigation Specialization (Medium)]: Increases map work, navigation calculation ability by 28%, mastering basic navigation rules, landmark compass navigation, radio navigation, instrument approach landing methods, air wind calculation by 13%, flight process navigation capability by 31%, and navigation direction judgment and correction ability by 14%.
