"Either way," Jin Zixuan said quietly, "she got you out. You're alive. That has to count for something."
"We're alive because that helicopter is built like a tank and she can fly it like a fighter jet," Jin Boyuan corrected. "If we'd been in a regular civilian aircraft, we'd all be dead. If she'd been a normal pilot, we'd be dead. Everything had to align perfectly, the right equipment, the right skills, the right timing. One variable off and we wouldn't be having this conversation."
Tang Yuze nodded slowly. "So the helicopter sitting on the helipad, it's not just a helicopter. It's a military combat aircraft. Armored, designed for hostile situations."
"Which raises even more questions," Tang Zichen added. "Where did she get access to military-grade combat aircraft? Who gave her that? What organization does she work for, that she can just commandeer equipment like that?"
