“Finn Lewis, there’s no need to go to a place that’s too costly. I’m not that picky. Just find a clean place to eat,” Amelia Lee stated directly after getting into the car.
“Mhm, Auntie, I understand. This restaurant isn’t large, and the food isn’t expensive. It’s just a well-known private restaurant known for its delicious dishes. They use the healthiest ingredients sourced sustainably. However, the food isn’t expensive,” Finn Lewis honestly reassured.
Sitting next to Amelia Lee, Kay Lee almost burst out laughing when she heard what Finn Lewis said. Indeed, the food wasn’t expensive, but it was charged per person, and each person cost more than two hundred thousand. How much would this meal cost? These were just common foods. If they ordered any special dishes, such as abalone, they would have to pay extra.
Of course, since Finn Lewis said it wasn’t expensive, it indeed wasn’t. For a wealthy boss like him, who would dare to charge him? Of course, Kay Lee just chuckled inwardly. She would never reveal the actual price; that would just spell trouble for herself.
Amelia Lee believed him and simply replied with a smile, “That’s good”.
Since Hannah Lincoln had already called and informed Finn Lewis that everything at the restaurant was prepared, he didn’t worry about anyone else revealing the secret. The restaurant was mostly empty when they arrived, which was normal for such a private establishment.
“This place is quite tastefully decorated,” Amelia Lee remarked in surprise once they entered the restaurant.
“Mhm. This restaurant emphasizes a classical ambiance, so the interior is decorated in an old-fashioned style. It feels as though we’ve stepped back in time to eat in an ancient tavern,” Kay Lee added.
“Mhm, these paintings and calligraphic works are nice. They all seem to capture a particular essence,” Amelia Lee noted. Although she wasn’t very familiar with such art, even the common man could appreciate the original works of masters. Therefore, even though Amelia Lee didn’t understand them fully, she could tell that the paintings and calligraphy were well done.
The three of them didn’t order a lot of food. Finn Lewis only ordered some special dishes that were enough for the three of them. He didn’t order anything like individual head abalones, just abalones that were about 12 heads in size. All of these abalones were flown in from another world, wild-caught ones, at that.
The taste was naturally good. They had a delightful meal. After dropping Kay Lee and her mother off, Finn Lewis finally heaved a sigh of relief. The entire half-day had been quite tense. However, after successfully navigating through it, Finn Lewis couldn’t help but punch the air in triumph.
“Young master, there’s something that needs your attention,” Olivia Thatcher’s voice rang out inappropriately.
“I’m in a good mood, so tell me, is this good news or bad news?” Finn Lewis replied with a joke.
“I don’t know whether to classify it as good news or bad news,” Olivia Thatcher voiced. “It occurred about an hour ago, but I didn’t want to disturb you, young master.”
“Go on, what happened?” Finn Lewis waved his hand. Since Olivia Thatcher didn’t say anything at the time, it shouldn’t be anything important.
“Our friends in Myanmar are in trouble.”
After Olivia Thatcher detailed the incident, Finn Lewis thought this to be the perfect chance to test out his battle armor!
This was Finn Lewis’s first time using the personal anti-gravity device. As soon as he activated it, he felt as though his body had become weightless and he started to float upwards. The sense that an unusual power was pulling him up was different from the feeling of riding an elevator. This power was clearly gravity, and the personal anti-gravity device was not slow in its rise.
It was probably faster than some high-speed elevators. Only a few seconds later, Finn Lewis looked down and took a deep breath. People with acrophobia would have been paralyzed at this height. He was literally floating mid-air, looking like he had no equipment whatsoever. Below, the city was brilliant with lights. Finn Lewis was approximately 2,000 meters high now. Luckily, it was night-time. If it were daytime, many people would probably shout out, “Honey, come see God!” The Thunderhawk, while it could not be detected by radar, could still be seen in the night sky. It only appeared next to Finn Lewis when he reached an altitude of around 3,000 meters.
The Thunderhawk, with its engines off, wasn’t moving fast. Finn Lewis acted quickly, seizing the opened cockpit door, and hopped in. Once he closed the door, the cockpit lit up and the cold voice of the Thunderhawk echoed, “Welcome aboard.”
“Start the engine,” Finn Lewis commanded without a second thought.
While Finn Lewis was busy confirming the target location, he forgot about one thing. Both the Thunderhawk and Olivia Thatcher only execute commands given by him and will not offer any suggestions. When Finn Lewis gave the command, the Thunderhawk’s engine roared to life, belching bluish plasma forcefully. It seemed to leave a trail of blue flames in the air that were extraordinarily bright. A strong force threw him back, and he could feel the Thunderhawk speeding up and heading obliquely for the sky.
Flight CZ7864 was an airline of Flame Nation, flying from Celeston City to Bright Yoder. The airplane hadn’t been flying for long and was still in the ascent phase. Elegant Sky, who was en route to Yonder City on a holiday, was bored and looking out of the window. Ever since the last incident, he had gained favor from his old man and thus had quite a bit of freedom lately. Out of boredom, he decided to take a trip. After spending a few days playing with his friends in Celeston City, he decided to fly to Bright Yoder. Although Elegant Sky’s family was not without money, he chose economy class over first class, as he was generally discreet. He was gazing out of the window in tedium when he suddenly spotted a bluish flame in the pitch-black sky.
This passage tells of Finn Lewis’s journey to aid his friends, his fierce fighting using his battle armor, and his interaction with the higher-ups. He also expropriated a portion of the technology blueprints and handed them over, thus earning a large amount of points.
