He beckoned the restaurant manager over and pointed at Frank who was outside the window. He said something and Frank was quickly invited into the restaurant. When they reached the dining table, William stood up. The captain, co-pilot, and four beautiful air stewardesses also stood up politely.
Before Frank could speak, William hugged him and said happily,"Long time no see, Frank." Sensing that William did not reject him, Frank heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
Alright, long time no see."
" You bastard! A month ago at my aunt's house in Houston, you promised to come back and have dinner with me and my aunt. But the next day, my aunt prepared a feast, but you didn't even show up. Your mother and my aunt nagged at me for more than an hour."
This, this."
Frank knew that William was spouting nonsense. Without any hesitation, he played along and pretended to be embarrassed as he scratched his head.
I'm sorry, I-I did have something on that day."
" Okay, okay, I understand." William laughed and explained to the captain and the others," This is Frank, my aunt's son. He grew up with me. Two years ago, he was the little bastard who ran away from home in order to get the captain's qualification. "Moreover, what you don't know is that this kid said that he ran away from home. In fact, he just moved from his own house to mine. Every time I go home during the holidays, I have to listen to him ask me all kinds of questions about flying and airplanes. It made me feel a little reluctant to go home in the past few months."
" Haha." When everyone heard that this was the reason, they didn't blame Frank. They thought about it for a moment and imagined that because their cousin had become a pilot, his cousin had ignored the opposition of his family and wanted to follow in his brother's footsteps and become a pilot.
After apologizing to the stewardess beside him, William pulled Frank to sit beside him and poured him a glass of red wine. He asked in a low voice," You called me last time and said that you had received Pan Am's training notice. How was it? Are you still training or are you on the plane with the group?"”
I, this."
Frank, who hadn't even graduated from high school, didn't know what simulation training was. Fortunately, William pretended to be helpless and shook his head." Forget it, you don't have to tell me. I'll ask someone I know."
Then, he smiled apologetically at the captain and co-pilot of the alliance." Frank has been a little stubborn since he was young. Although he said that the training progress and curriculum must be kept confidential, any captain or co-pilot can use the excuse of selecting a team to ask about the training progress. After all, our profession is very tiring. No one likes to bring along a rookie who doesn't fit in. "When I was an intern, I was directly selected by Captain Howard, who was still the co-pilot at the time."
Yes, that's right."
Captain Hunter, who was sitting opposite him, nodded in agreement." Two pilots in the same crew must get along or even become good friends in order to deal with all kinds of problems more effectively." After saying that, Hunter laughed as he looked at Frank, who had a nervous expression." Don't worry, Frank. Your brother is the co-pilot of Pan Am. He'll definitely teach you how to deal with a captain like me."
"Haha."
The people at the table instantly laughed.
Half an hour later, when he saw that everyone had put down their wine glasses or that their hands had not touched their wine glasses for a long time, William took the initiative to call the waiter to pay the bill.
After sending off the six cabin crew members with Frank, he watched the two taxis leave. He turned back to look at Frank, who had a confused expression on his face, and said," If you have time, walk with me and tell me what you've been through these past few days."
" Okay, okay." Frank instantly brought himself into the mode of a lackey in San Francisco.
Manhattan's XC District was not far from Urban area. After half an hour of walking and learning about Frank, the two of them went to a coffee shop. After enjoying the attention of the waiter, William thought for a few seconds and said," I originally planned to go to Los Angeles to go back to school, but I didn't expect that one of the people you deceived was an accountant of the Gray Gang. So, for safety's sake, I had to leave the West. If it's not necessary, you must never return to San Francisco. Even if you want to write to your parents or send a postcard, you must not leave your real address.
It's best to drive to the nearby town to mail it, understand?”
" Understood." Frank nodded honestly, then asked anxiously," Will my parents be in danger?”
" Calm down." William glared at Frank. Frank immediately sat down obediently.
"About ten days ago, I called your father. If he's fine, then your mother must be fine too. Besides, as long as we're not recognized or caught, this matter will definitely pass in a few years. "In fact, that accountant from the Gray Gang might have stopped long ago or gone to see God."
" That's good." Frank secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he looked at the captain's uniform on William and asked carefully,
"So, after you were implicated by me and couldn't go to school, you went to take the captain's qualification and become a pilot?”
" Hahaha." William laughed softly. He took out a Pan Am employee pass from his shirt pocket and handed it to Frank. Seeing the name Mike Chris on the ID, Frank knew that William was pretending to be a pilot. After returning the ID, Frank asked carefully," Why?”
" Money." William pursed his lips." I'm the same as you. I haven't graduated from high school. I have no skills, no education, and no connections. Even if we think we're smarter than others, we can't even find a proper job. If I want to live, if I want to live well, I can only be like you."
Like me?
Frank's eyes lit up. He looked around and asked in a low voice," A fake check?”
"What do you think?" Of course, William wouldn't give a direct answer in such a place." Alright, it's late. I have to fly to Paris tomorrow. I'll contact you after a while."
" Wait, wait." Frank grabbed William's arm." Stop fooling around, Boss Henry. You're telling me all this because you want me to join you."
" Hehe." William sat back in his chair. He was very satisfied with Frank's attitude of taking the initiative to be his lackey. He looked at Frank, who had a surprised expression on his face." Not bad, you're as smart as before."
Then, under Frank's surprised gaze, he took out a pair of gloves from his outer pocket and put them on. Then, he took out a stack of envelopes with the Pan Am logo printed on them from his inner pocket.
"I'll prepare a co-pilot suit for you tomorrow. Then, at this time tomorrow night, you'll pay me 2900 dollars for this cafe."
Since he saw William wearing gloves, even if Frank didn't care in the past, he would be a fool if he wasn't careful now. Looking at the number of envelopes, he pointed at the ten envelopes and asked," Is this a test?”
" Don't be late." After saying that, William pushed off his gloves and threw them on the table. Then, he paid the bill and left the cafe.
