I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Danger often lurks in complacency.

The more confident people feel, thinking they’re in full control, the closer they are to accidents.

Experienced instructor Seckley thought the fog in California was harmless and not to be feared.

However, the novice pilot in front of Harrison Clark, with less than a thousand hours of safe driving, wasn’t so bold.

“Oh no no no sir, I’m sorry, we can’t take off today.”

Facing Harrison Clark’s unreasonable request, the pilot’s head shook like a rattle drum.

Harrison Clark checked his watch, growing impatient. “But the Air Traffic Control hasn’t declared a flight ban today.”

Pilot: “Yes, but the notice I received asked us to make our own decisions. I have self-awareness, so my decision is to stay home.”

Harrison Clark took out his phone, pulled up the rental company’s deposit system, and opened the section for added services, which meant extra tips for the pilot, and snapped a “1” and five “0”s in it.

Harrison Clark put his phone in front of the pilot.

Pilot: “Uh…”

Harrison Clark sneered, “You go find out who I am. There’s nothing Mr. Clark wants to do that can’t be done. Today, I have to take a stroll in the sky. Don’t ask me why. It’s because I bragged to others that I wanted to take an aerial selfie of California. Now that there’s fog, it looks even more badass.”

Slap!

Harrison Clark changed the “1” to a “2”.

The pilot’s pupils dilated, his thoughts blank for a moment.

“I… I really can’t…”

Harrison Clark slapped the “2” and turned it into a “3”.

Mr. Clark sneered arrogantly, “I said we have to fly today, so we must! Don’t be too greedy.”

The pilot swallowed and lowered his voice, “Sir, I will fly. But…”

“But what?”

I can’t take that much in tips, it’s my sister’s bank account.”

Slap!

$150,000 transaction completed.

“Here’s half the money, and the other half after the job is done. Don’t give me that look, I am just that generous. Can’t help it, who told me I am just too rich? Hahaha!”

Harrison Clark strutted, laughing maniacally.

“Yes, thank you very much, Mr. Clark!”

The pilot bowed and ran off to prepare the helicopter.

Harrison Clark’s eyes flickered to the object propped up in the corner.

It was a hang glider, an extreme accessory in extreme sports, requiring at least dozens of hours of aerial training, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars to master with a necessary qualification certificate to play with.

Taking advantage of the brief preparation time before takeoff, Harrison Clark rushed over, lifted the folded hang-glider, and ran back to the helicopter.

This was not a standard low-end civilian helicopter but a modified civilian version of past military equipment.

The fuselage was slender, powerful, and comfortable, with a maximum seating capacity of twelve including the three crew members.

The pilot turned back to help Harrison Clark up.

Seeing Harrison Clark carrying a hang glider, he waved his hands, “Mr. Clark, you can’t bring this.”

“Why?”

Do you have a hang gliding license?”

Harrison Clark ignored him, jumped straight up, “Yes.”

“Then I need you to show me the proof.”

Harrison Clark rolled his eyes, looked at the two assistants seated in front, and quietly extended four fingers, blinking his eyes, “You’ve already checked my proof.”

$400,000!

The pilot’s eyes flickered, “Fine… alright then.”

Due to the weather, there were few helicopters applying for takeoff routes today, so the Air Traffic Control responded within a few minutes, allowing the takeoff and planning the route.

KC14595, cleared for takeoff. Cruise autonomously after entering the lane, maintain a safe flight distance from KC3971 ahead. You will receive new instructions 20 kilometers away from Casades County.”

After the pilot replied, the helicopter’s rotor started spinning.

Harrison Clark seemed expressionless, but his heart was euphoric.

He caught up!

KC3971 was Charles Butler’s private helicopter registration!

It wasn’t long before the helicopter took off.

Harrison Clark sat alone in the back passenger seat, while the pilot and two assistants sat in front.

Harrison Clark rested his head against the edge of the seat, trying to glimpse KC3971 far ahead.

After a minute or two, he couldn’t help it anymore, “Phil, why can’t I see that KC3971? Didn’t ATC just say they’re ahead of us?”

Pilot Phil said unhappily: “Mr. Clark, what are you thinking? They took off several minutes before us, the helicopter’s speed is 300 kilometers per hour, they are quite far. They should almost be there.”

“What!” Harrison Clark was shocked, “Can we speed up and catch up?”

Phil’s head was about to explode.

“Mr. Clark! I know you’re very wealthy, but please respect my professional ethics as a pilot! You just heard it too, ATC wants me to maintain a safe flight distance, and this distance is quite safe. Flying is completely different from driving a car, nothing in the air is more important than safety!”

Harrison Clark thought for a moment, “Then I hope you can approach KC3971 as quickly as possible within safe conditions and maintain the minimum safe distance.”

“Mr.. Clark, it’s foggy now! You see, the fog is getting worse! Weren’t you just trying to take a look at the sky, why do you insist on following someone else’s helicopter?”
