Chapter 298: Arriving in Japan
Meng Caitang, who heard about the airport incident, recognized him right away.
Other sisters of his also recognized him instantly.
Other people, who spent a lot of time with Meng Fan, as well as people who knew where Meng Fan went, also guessed it was Meng Fan, even if they didn’t recognize the photo.
The people who realized it was Meng Fan were mostly his family or good friends. They felt proud and worried, they also realized the serious nature of this incident, and chose to stay silent. They didn’t talk about it even if they knew the people next to them realized the same thing.
They could only marvel inside their heads.
“What is it?”
After they finished a night shoot and showered, Bai Zhi went to Meng Caiwei’s room and crawled into her comforter. Looking at Meng Caiwei’s expression, she looked over, but Meng Caiwei locked her screen.
“Hey, what are you hiding? What are you looking at?”
The two of them played a bit. Bai Zhi didn’t go back to her room; she wanted to crash here. It was late, but she still scrolled on her phone, which was how she saw the “Anonymous Hero” photo. Her eyes went big as she looked at Meng Caiwei.
Meng Caiwei had closed her eyes already.
Bai Zhi resisted asking, but she was a hundred percent sure the man in the photo was Meng Fan.
She knew Meng Fan was in Singapore during this time, that he was going to Japan later. She even knew Meng Caiwei had arranged a dinner for him with Satomi Ishihara in Japan.
Since she always paid attention to Meng Fan’s figure, of course she recognized him.
“Oh my god!”
Bai Zhi breathed deeply for three times, but she still couldn’t push down the shock and worry in her mind.
She also knew Meng Caiwei was looking at the same news earlier.
She prayed for Meng Fan. Please, don’t let anything happen to this man!
Wu Tong didn’t find out until the next morning, after she finished her morning jog. She learned the news at Hu Heng’s workshop. Right away, she found a quiet place outside to call Meng Fan.
…
The flight was delayed for almost three hours. After more than six hours in flight, the plane landed at Haneda Airport at close to 10 p.m.
The minute the plane touched down, a voice prompt sounded in Meng Fan’s head.
“Ding! Host survived until December 14th, 2019 and successfully reached Japan. Special mission of [Continued Life Against the Heavens] is completed. Reward: 10 points of attributes.”
Finally, he did it.
At this moment, Meng Fan truly felt reborn.
He can continue his unfinished life!
It was a coincidence.
Just when Meng Fan breathed a sigh of relief, another prompt came up.
“Ding! Mission of [Professional Manga Artist] completed. Won title of [Professional Manga Artist] (Drawing skill +5, Settings +5, Scriptwriting +5).”
Plus 1000 points of progress reward.
A few days ago, Uncle Kun told Meng Fan the comic book’s seventh volume was being published. It must have been published today, so now he has completed the task of publishing ten volumes of the comic book. As for the sales goal, he completed it a while ago.
With attribute rewards from this title, Meng Fan’s Settings and Scriptwriting ability went from +7 to +12, which was huge progress. With these attributes, Meng Fan could now create original comics from the stories in his mind.
As for drawing skills, he was now at +30 with 5 points added, he was now spectacular in this area.
“Big brother, we’re here.”
En’en tugged on Meng Fan, who was lost in his thoughts. “Big brother, unbuckle me.”
Meng Fan focused and unbuckled En’en’s safety belt and helped her down. Then he stood up, helping people unload their suitcases, then walked off the plane holding En’en’s hand.
Due to the flight’s special circumstances, all the passengers used the VIP tunnel. The airport also arranged cars to take the passengers to their hotels or other destinations.
“Mr. M, do you live in Japan or are you visiting?” En’en’s parents caught up to them. Her dad asked Meng Fan.
“I’m here on vacation.” Meng Fan added, “My last name is Meng. You can call me Little Meng.”
The couple seemed excited. En’en’s mom said, “We are in Japan for business. We have a home here. If you don’t mind, you can stay with us. It’ll be easy for you to do tours nearby, too. Old Xu here can be your guide. Please allow us to play host.”
Meng Fan said gratefully, “I already have a hotel reservation.” Seeing En’en’s disappointment, he stroked her hair and said, “How about this? If you tell me where your house is, I’ll go find you. I want to see if you have any good snacks.”
The couple couldn’t insist, given Meng Fan’s answer. They gave him their address. “Which hotel are you staying at? We have a car here, we can take you there. En’en wanted to spend more time with you anyway.”
Meng Fan nodded. “I’m at the Aman Kyoto hotel. If it’s not inconvenient, I’d ride with you guys.”
“Aman? OK.”
The name surprised the couple, as the hotel was one of the best in Kyoto.
“M-san, how are you!”
At this time, an older man ran up to them. This was the other hostage. His neck had a band-aid covering a wound from a wooden nail. He bowed to Meng Fan, speaking in Japanese, then he looked at En’en’s parents, hoping for translation help.
En’en’s dad said to Meng Fan. “This is Goro Takahashi. He was hoping to have your contact information. He wanted to take you to dinner. Also, if you need help with anything in Japan, he’ll do his best to help.”
Meng Fan smiled at the older man. “I’ll be back in China in just a few days. My trip is short. If I came here again, I’d definitely pay you a visit.”
En’en’s dad translated Meng Fan’s words to Goro Takahashi, who seemed crushed that he didn’t get Meng Fan’s contact information. Still, he handed over his business card with both hands and said, “If M-san is interested in manga, I can give you a tour of Kodansha Comics.”
