Once GuYang left, ZhouLingYun followed behind.

Two police soldiers blocked his path, "Where are you going?"

He lightly swept them an eye, "To help President Gu intercept a fighter aircraft."

"Didn't you just say that you're not going to help him?" The police soldiers were confused, "I just heard you say that the country's equipment should not be used to resolve personal conflicts."

"This is not a personal conflict. The country's first-level pilot has been hijacked in the air. I am going to go ensure his safety. Since this is also an internal matter, it is necessary to protect the strength of the Air Force's combatting operations." ZhouLingYun steadily elaborated on his excuses.

The two police soldiers looked at each other, then gave a call to the police officer for authorization. After approval, one of them dragged ZhouLingYun's arm and said, "I'll go with you!"

BaiLuoYin's aircraft pierced through the clouds. Once it reached a high safe altitude, it began to fly at a smoother steadier pace. It's apparent that they would be able to reach their destination without any troubles.

After a long period of silence, TongZhe was the first to speak.

"Can you smoke in the cockpit?"

BaiLuoYin, "Up to you."

GuHai, "No."

BaiLuoYin and GuHai both spoke at the same time, but with two contrasting views causing TongZhe to pause his hand that was holding a cigarette. BaiLuoYin had on an indifferent attitude but GuHai is clearly refusing to let him smoke. If this was a normal aircraft, it would have been fine, but smoking in this fighter aircraft could seriously interfere with the pilot's judgement.

TongZhe glanced at BaiLuoYin. He appeared to be a very cool pilot. His figure and temperament is definitely not petty.

"Forget it." TongZhe put the cigarette back into his pocket.

But BaiLuoYin reached toward TongZhe, "Give me one too."

GuHai put his hand on BaiLuoYin's hand. He softly tells him, "You can smoke when we get back. We'll be home in less than 15 minutes."

BaiLuoYin coldly pushed GuHai's hand away and continued to look at TongZhe, hinting for him to give him a cigarette.

GuHai could faintly feel that BaiLuoYin's state of mind is not well, but for the purpose of their safety, he no longer went against BaiLuoYin's will and let them.

Soon, smoke permeated throughout the cockpit.

TongZhe had come to realize that since they have gotten in the cockpit, GuHai's eyes have been fixated on BaiLuoYin. Beside specific time periods, he was unable to take his eyes off of him. BaiLuoYin seemed to have an aloof attitude. However, TongZhe is not sure if that was merely because flying an aircraft requires his full concentration or that he just have some prejudices against GuHai.

In short, TongZhe felt that there is a deep involvement between the two.

Suddenly, BaiLuoYin saw an abnormal signal on the LCD screen, his nerves suddenly tensed up. Immediately, he stuffed the cigarette into GuHai's hands and took full control of the joystick with his eyes staring intently at the instrument panel.

Soon, the fighter aircraft that GuYang was in came into his field of vision. The pilot and BaiLuoYin greeted each other. They have not competed with each other in the air before. In the last desert air battle, the two were on different teams. They almost had an opportunity for a showdown but because of BaiLuoYin's foot injury, they missed that opportunity.
