Chapter 240 Ready to take off
"Sorry, the hurricane is coming, I don't want to go out and die."
"No matter how much money I will not take off."
At the civil airport next to Honolulu International Airport, the bearded pilot who was wiping the skin of the plane looked up at the clouds in the sky, shook his head, and refused Lorraine's request for rent, which made him go back in depressed.
The hurricane is coming. Although the wind is not very strong now, no one knows when the wind will strengthen.
Once the wind suddenly strengthens, propeller planes with only two or three seats at civil airports cannot stop them at all.
Although Lorraine gave her sufficient sincerity, her life is more important to her.
"Lorraine, how about it?"
Waiting in front of the convenience store next to the civil airport, watching Lorraine return. Although the results could be seen from Lorraine's expression, Christina still asked involuntarily.
Molly held Tina and looked at Lorraine expectantly.
"It was the last plane just now."
"None of them wants to fly in such weather."
"Perhaps we can only wait for the hurricane to pass."
Smiling bitterly, Lorraine spread her hands at her girlfriend-even though he took out his usual sincerity to rent three or four planes, no one was willing to take them off.
However, it should have been because of hearing the conversation between Lorraine and Christina that a man in the convenience store, wearing a big straw hat, drinking Coke and a scumbag suddenly came out.
"Hey, this gentleman and two ladies, are you looking for a plane?"
"Although most cowards dare not take off before the hurricane, there is one person."
"who?"
Like the last straw before drowning, Lorraine, who was smiling helplessly, immediately grabbed the straw - he looked up at the middle-aged man with a beard and grabbed his shoulder and asked anxiously.
The middle-aged man used a Coke bottle to top the brim of his hat, revealing his face and cunning little eyes, and gently rubbed his fingers with his empty palms.
"I can take you to find him, but..."
"for you!"
Take out a few pictures from his pocket and slapped them into the man's hands, which made the man's little eyes flash immediately - Lorraine, who received a large amount of thank-you shares, is no longer short of money, and his annual dividend is equivalent to the total income of two to three middle-class families.
What's more, compared to the whereabouts of Catherine and Ron, what is money like?
"Good, please follow me."
Obviously, Lorraine's generousness made the Straw Hat Coke man quite satisfied. He nodded to Lorraine with approval. The Straw Hat Coke man turned around and walked to the other side of the civil airport. There were several shabby aircraft warehouses, and it was said that there were several old aircraft parked.
Obviously, the Straw Hat Coke man's goal is one of these dilapidated hangars, and he took Lorraine and a cat into the middle hangar. The Straw Hat Coke man stood in front of a large area of dusty tarpaulin.
"Where are the people you mentioned?"
"And I haven't seen the plane."
Looking around with Christina, Lorraine frowned and looked at the Straw Hat Coke man in depression. In this hangar, Lorraine did not see the pilot or the plane, which made him feel like he had encountered a liar.
He is now desperate to find a plane to explore the surrounding islands and see if he can find Catherine - at this time, he is played with hope, and no one will not be angry.
Even Christina and Molly behind Lorraine stared at the Straw Hat Coke man in anger.
However, the straw hat man ignored the angry eyes of the three of them and drank the coke in the bottle. He turned around and pulled the dusty tarpaulin, then pulled it hard.
"Swish!"
"Cough cough cough cough cough ~"
The dust uncovered by the old tarpaulin made all the people and cats present cough, even the Straw Hat Coke man was no exception, but after coughing, he stood proudly before the object revealed from the tarpaulin.
"Dangdangdangdangdangdang, let me introduce you very much. Hoghes is the best pilot on Oahu."
"This is my baby, Karina!"
Although I don't know if the straw hat Coke man Hoggs was the best pilot on Oahu as he mentioned, behind the unveiled tarpaulin was indeed an airplane.
However, compared with the brightly colored small aircraft that Lorraine had just asked about, this old aircraft called Karina is not only bigger, whether it is in color, neatness, or skin integrity.
Ron even found several small holes near the rear wing of the plane.
"Hehehe, don't look at Karina with such eyes, this is the eagle that soared in the sky before you were born."
"Even now, there is still no problem."
Lorraine's gaze made Hogs a little angry, but Ron turned his head and discussed it with Christina for a while, and finally made up his mind.
"Okay, I'll trust you for the time being."
"We need you to take off later and mainly explore the uninhabited islands near Oahu."
"After things are done, these are yours."
Take out a stack of US dollars from the bag in hand and shake it. Lorraine opened the bag and let Hoggs see clearly the green US dollars inside, as well as a black KGB seventeenth and a shiny police badge.
"Guru~"
Such temptation and warning made the straw hat Coke man stretched out his neck and swallowed - he reached out to spread it out in front of Lorraine.
"Um?"
"Hehe, can you give me some deposit first? Karina hasn't drunk oil for a long time~"
Licking his face, Hoggs laughed...
…………
On the deserted island, Catherine and Ron's living standards are constantly improving - food, clothing, housing and transportation, and now three of them are met.
With a new shelter that can accommodate several days of food reserves, Coke bottle slippers, it's just a matter of nowhere.
Unfortunately, several days have passed, and there are still no traces of ships in the waters near the deserted island, as if this is a place where no ships will come.
The sun sets westward, and the islands in the distance are covered with red fire clouds, making them look extremely beautiful.
Just looking further away, there was a dark cloud in the sky to the west, which added a large amount of stains to the azure sky and made the mind restless.
“Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow~”
Singing with cry, Ron and Catherine came to the beach in the sunset, looking at the scenery under the transparent sea through the water.
This is not the beach that started with ashore, with many reefs, but among the reefs, Ron and Catherine can see many wriggling objects and constantly swinging tentacles.
"Hey, what a big slice of clams!"
"Look, there are lobsters and oysters!"
Catherine and Ron, who had eaten meat for several days, wanted to change their taste.
