Chapter 16 – Double Jump!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Under everyone’s anticipation, two days passed quickly.
On the plane, Bell looked helpless.
The one sitting beside him was no other than Scarlett Johansson.
Scarlett Johansson was looking at him curiously.
Ever since this woman stepped on the plane, she had been staring at him non-stop. Even Bell was a little afraid.
Seeing that the woman was not moving even though they were about to parachute, Bell asked, “Miss, why are you looking at me like that?”
Bell did not know what to do when faced with such a gaze.
If it had been in his previous life when he was in the special forces, he definitely would not mind getting close to her and having a wonderful relationship. But now, his body was that of an eight-year-old child.
Bell was not narcissistic that he would think the other would take a fancy to him with his age.
Moreover, judging from the other party’s gaze, it was probably not the first time she had seen him, unlike the others who were matched randomly with the contestants.
Scarlett Johansson smiled and said, “Haha, it’s nice to meet you, Bell. I’m Scarlett Johansson. Just call me Scarlett.”
The woman stroked the golden hair beside her ear, looking very attractive.
Even the instructor swallowed secretly.
However, Bell did not feel that way.
Maybe a person’s thoughts had to do with their age, thought Bell.
Seeing Bell’s dazed expression, Scarlett Johansson was amused.
“I’ve admired you for a long time. I spent a lot of effort trying to match up with you.”
Scarlett Johansson said bitterly.
Bell was even more confused.
He could only smile awkwardly and scratch his head.
“Then I’m sorry, miss.”
“Please take care of me for the time being.”
“My name is Bell. Just call me by my name.”
After all, they were going to be teammates for this round, and Bell could not refuse her. He introduced himself simply.
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, Scarlett Johansson pulled Bell to her side and pinched Bell’s little face. Then, she hugged him. Bell felt a stuffy sensation and quickly broke free. His little face turned red. There was a milky scent at the tip of his nose.
Before Bell could speak, Scarlett Johansson spoke first. “Haha, you’re really cute.”
The woman seemed to be unsatisfied and tried to pull Bell, but Bell dodged.
At this moment, Bell was like an extremely shy boy. He did not look like a child at all, making Scarlett Johansson laugh again.
Just as she was about to continue teasing, the instructor spoke.
“The target location has been reached. Everyone, get ready to jump.”
Hearing the instructor’s words, Bell heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and looked at Scarlett Johansson. “Do you know how to parachute?” Before he could finish, he saw Scarlett Johansson skillfully carry her parachute backpack and make a flying kiss gesture in front of Bell. She winked and jumped down without hesitation.
Seeing this, Bell curled his lips. “I seem to have been teased.”
The instructor was filled with envy. He patted Bell’s shoulder and gave him a thumbs up. He even revealed a look that all men understood.
Bell was speechless. He thought to himself, ‘I’m only eight years old. This is illegal.’
However, Bell did not waste any more time. His teammate had already jumped down. If he delayed any longer, the two of them might be separated. After putting on his equipment, Bell jumped down.
Extreme cold air hit Bell’s face. Fortunately, he had the goggles to block the wind and snow.
With Bell’s parachuting skills, it was impossible for him to deviate too far from his teammate.
As soon as Scarlett Johansson landed, Bell followed. They were less than a hundred meters apart.
The audience also exclaimed.
“Bell’s parachuting skill is simply perfect. It still looks unbelievable even though I am seeing it the second time. This accuracy is simply terrifying.”
“That’s right. Many contestants were already separated from their teammates when they landed.”
“If they get separated, haha, then these celebrities will probably suffer.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Didn’t they always brag that they can endure hardships and endure tough filming conditions? It’s time to verify their words. This program is broadcast 24 hours a day.”
Hearing that the contestants and celebrities were separated, the audience clearly wanted to watch the show.
Of course, there were also some fanboys and fangirls who wanted to protect their celebrities and questioned the production team.
After landing, Bell quickly packed his parachute.
Scarlett Johansson walked over and asked curiously as she watched Bell.
“Why are you storing these things? The snow here is so heavy, they won’t work as a tent.”
“Do you want to tie us together?”
Clearly, she had done some research before participating in the show. She knew that it was very dangerous for the two of them to be separated in the snow. Moreover, in such weather at the top of the Alps, simple tents were useless against the cold.
Therefore, it was not very useful to put away the parachute like in the previous round.
Bell shook his head. “No, it’s impossible to set up a tent in this weather. Put away your parachute quickly and tie the ropes to your legs. Then, use the parachute to hold as much snow as possible. Let’s slide down.”
“After increasing its size, it can prevent us from falling into the ice crack.”
“Even if we really fall into the ice, we can pull ourselves up through the ropes.”
Bell explained to Scarlett Johansson.
Scarlett Johansson’s eyes lit up and she clapped happily.
“Haha, I knew it was definitely not wrong to follow you.”
Scarlett Johansson was as happy as a child. In front of Bell, their ages seemed to have reversed.
The eight-year-old Bell became the older brother, while the twenty-eight-year-old Scarlett Johansson became the little sister who was taken care of.
The audience inexplicably felt a sense of a couple forming up.
“Why does it feel like these two are quite happy to be in a team?”
“Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks so.”
The audience began to joke in the comments.
