(You're kidding!) I'm scared... I'm scared, I want to go home...!

The tacket was crouching with its head. At the in-flight announcement, the cabin attendant instructed me to do so, not Stewardess. I'm stepping on my feet in the same position as I was told, but the floor itself is shaking up, down, left and right violently, so I'm about to lose balance. He was about to throw his body somewhere with a pawn.

Taketo was now in a turbulent plane.

Every time the floor jumps big, there is a scream from the inside of the plane that neither the man's thing nor the woman's thing can touch. I was desperately biting my teeth and chewing anxiety to death, but in fact, Taketo himself was about to scream.

A Boeing 747 with a tacket enters a sudden black cloud on the sea en route to Bangkok, Thailand. Immediately afterwards, he was struck by severe turbulence. It's like the leaves of a tree dancing in a storm, being manipulated in an airflow and crashing all the time. I can't remember how many times I've experienced a steep descent far longer than a jet coaster.

(Shit. This is bad. I stopped talking about in-flight announcements. Did this plane crash? Am I going to die here?

Bottomless anxiety is smoking up your chest. If we were lucky enough to arrive safely in the middle of the ocean, would rescue come? No, but can you get off safely? I wonder how high they are right now. If you fall, you'll have no choice but to die, and when you think about it, you'll feel desperate.

(Ahhhhh, I knew I should've eaten the chocolate mint ice cream I saw at the airport.)

When I began to consciously consciously realize death, that was the first thing that came to mind. More like this, I wanted to push myself into thinking about my family, my lover, my work, etc., but I couldn't help but notice that the first thing I worried about was Sole.

I haven't seen my parents in over a year, and I don't have a lover in the first place. And the chocolate ice cream that the cute salesman at the shop specializing in Western confectionery at the airport terminal was calling for with a chilla apron seemed really delicious.

(Dammit... if I get home alive, I'll definitely go eat the chocolate ice cream I saw at Narita Airport!

Why Taketo is in danger of a plane crash over the East China Sea dates back to last Friday.

Taketo has worked in the police force since graduating from college until he was 32 years old. He is now an active detective in the Living Environment Division of the Department of Living Safety. This section deals with trade in plants and animals that violate the Seed Deposit Act and the Washington Convention brought in from domestic and international sources. In other words, smuggling and illegal possession of animals and plants were the main tasks.

On that day, the section chief summoned Taketo and handed him a piece of paper. I have received that white paper with a little thickness before. A new resignation.

Himukai. You know there's been a series of smuggling of claws from Southeast Asia lately. "

The letter of resignation said, "Himui samurai [Takara] is ordered to dispatch to Bangkok, Thailand."

"Yes, it's been popular as a pet lately...."

The section chief shook his head loosely to the tacket, which was silently reading the letter of resignation.

"That wasn't originally a pet-friendly creature. Along with raccoons. It is originally a creature with wild ferocity. I don't like amateurs enough to get used to keeping them on my own. Nevertheless, only the cute side was featured on TV and because of the popularity of" Ninki ", the number of smuggling cases also climbed."

The section chief put his arms behind his chair and looked up at the tacket with harsh eyes.

"All twelve species that exist are endangered. Especially in Southeast Asia, where smuggling has been taking place recently, beetles are listed in the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List as Endangered Species II, Annex II to the Washington Convention. Originally, there were supposed to be permits from both exporting and importing countries, but they rarely brought in without permission. Apparently, the Japanese are not tired of extincting domestic kawasaws, and now want to extinct other countries' kawasaws. Please conduct a preliminary investigation to determine the smuggling route."

"Yes, I'll be on my way there shortly"

I am now over the East China Sea, but before I arrived in Thailand, I was unlucky and about to become the end of my life in a plane accident.

A sudden descent that I don't know how many more times hit the plane, and the plane was wrapped up in a nose scream again.

(Whoops!

While I was about to vomit in such discomfort that my arms were stuck in my body and my internal organs were pushed up, the tacket clutched its head in the seat and nodded.

(No, I'm scared. I'm scared. I can't, I can't stay here! I don't want to die. Whoever it is, somebody help me! Take me to the ground now!

I'm going to cry a little. No, maybe he was actually crying. My face is already feeling nasty, but I couldn't afford to worry about it. The passengers around me were shouting, grumbling, and crying half frenzied.

At that time, there was a feeling of fluffy ground lifting. The sudden drop that seemed to be forever stopped and the plane seems to have stabilized. So the bait finally takes a big breath. I forgot to breathe so much fear.

The taxi seat is a window seat in the economy seat at the rear of the plane. There was a small window on the left. The foreigner sitting next to him shouted in a language he didn't know before, but now he may have fainted from fear. While pushing the big body that was coming to us into the adjacent seat, the tacket looked out the window.

Outside the window, it is wrapped in darkness that is unlikely to happen during the day. Is it in a thick cloud? There are memories that the aircraft began to shake badly after it entered this black cloud. From time to time, lightning flashed endlessly in the darkness.

Even now, lightning rushes right next to the plane with a roar of burrs. The light brightened the outside of the window for a brief moment.

(Eh....?

The tacket blinked again. Now I feel like I've seen something impossible in a flash of lightning.

(What is it... now...)

For a moment. In just a moment, the outside of the window sank again into darkness, but I felt like a big reptile-like face had emerged from the clouds, illuminated by lightning.

It's like a giant reptile flying alongside this plane.

Yes, it's like...

(Dragon...?

I wonder if you're starting to hallucinate with fear of plane trouble.

For a moment, I felt like I saw a big dragon flying alongside this plane in that lightning.

(What a stupid thing....)

I wonder if the movie I was watching until the plane began to shake was still in my head and began to confuse it with the reality of panic. Speaking of which, the movie was a foreign fantasy that was popular a while ago.

However, the hallucinations were too realistic.

Taketo wakes up trying to see the outside of the window again. Outside the plane is still wrapped in darkness, but it is still sometimes far away and sparkling lightning. If the lightning strikes near the plane like before, the outside of the window will be brighter and you'll see what's going on out there.

To take a closer look, the tacket takes off the seat belt. And then I put my hand against the window and came closer to my face... I was going to.

However, contrary to expectations, I could not feel the rebound that was supposed to come from my hand, and the tacket's hand passed through the other side without any resistance, as if it had slipped into the water.

"Eh...."

It was too late when I realized it was strange.

"Fufu!? Ah!? Huh!?

The body of the tacket, which had lost its posture because it was weighing on its hands, slipped through the windows and walls of the aircraft and was outside the aircraft. It was thrown into the dark sky.

"Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The plane leaves relentlessly. There was no way to reach the falling machine shadow, and the tacket fell upside down into the roaring darkness of lightning.
