After explaining about to the assembled people, Jin said, "Well, let me show you how to fly it,
"Well, let me show you how to fly it first. Hope, please."
"Yes, Master."
Hope shows a demonstration flight, and Jin points to it as he explains.
"...... and, as you can see, the controls are left to the professional pilot golem. Well, I'm not very good at this kind of flying. Besides, I'm no match for a golem in terms of quick judgment and reflexes.
Hearing Jin's explanation, Rasnat Heilbronn of the <> says, "I see,
"I see......... we need to develop a golem for pilots, too.
Rohr Eisker of the Aeronautics Laboratory said to himself,
"This ...... is exactly the kind of design that pursues speed and agility," he said.
He was impressed by the performance of the <>.
After a three-minute demonstration flight, <> landed softly on the airfield.
"Well, we don't have much time, but if you'd like to take a ride, please visit ......."
Before Jin could finish, 17 hands were raised.
Nine were from the <> and eight were from the <>, so that was everyone there.
"Well then, since the <> has a capacity of six passengers, let's have five passengers each, excluding Hope, the pilot.
The order was quickly decided without any quarrels among the top Ars researchers.
Since Jin also boarded at first, there were four <> members.
Eira, Cachier, Gromma, and Rohr-Eisker. The three friends and the director of the Aeronautical Institute were given priority.
"Well then, Hope, will you take care of them?"
"Yes, Master."
Hope fired up the blow engine and began to ascend vertically.
After gaining about 30 meters of altitude, the aircraft moves into horizontal flight.
"The top speed of <> is over 100 km/h. I'll keep it at 50 km/h this time. I'll keep it at 50 kilometers this time," explained Jin.
Jin explains. In reality, the aircraft can reach a speed of over 300 kilometers per hour, but he did not explain that much.
After flying horizontally, the plane zigzagged, then rose and fell sharply.
"No, the circular wings in front and behind are there for this attitude control!
Roar Eisker said in a roaring voice.
Even though it is a biplane, a circular wing basically keeps the plane level.
The plane then gained about 100 meters in altitude and made a leisurely turn over <>.
"Wow, it's a nice view!
said Kaechea happily.
"It's great to fly, isn't it?
This is Eira's first time flying in a small plane.
If you think of the difference between a jet airliner and a Cessna, you can imagine the exhilaration she feels.
"I've been in my mentor's < a few times, but it's a completely different ride than this ......."
"Yeah, I think that's probably because the one Rhodtos was bringing in was disassembled and assembled."
In short, Jin said, it was simplified as much as possible, so the ride was not as comfortable as it could have been.
Roar Aisker, who had been listening to the conversation, asked Jin a question.
"...... Jin-dono, what parameters would change the ride quality?"
"Well,...... it's the ."
"Shaking. ...... is certainly true."
It seemed that this hint was enough for Roa, and he started mumbling about <>, <>, and so on.
* * * * * * * * * * *
It takes about 10 minutes per flight, and if you fly four times, you'll have finished loading everyone on board.
"Well, thank you very much. It will be a good memory."
"I will be proud to be a passenger of Mr. Jin's blowplane for the rest of my life!
It was almost noon, so we decided to break up and have lunch.
"Mr. Jin, would you like to have lunch with us?
"Yes, of course. Do you have any recommendations for a restaurant?
When invited by Ka-cea, Jin readily agreed.
"Well, from here, the cafeteria at the headquarters of the World Guard is close by.
"Oh, I see."
That's the building you can see from the airfield.
It is less than 500 meters away.
"We academics and visitors need to pay to eat there. ......"
"Oh, no problem, I'll buy you a drink."
"Jin, I'm sorry, it's okay."
Eira was reserved, but Jin didn't care,
"Come on, come on, come on, come on. I've been a little flush lately."
He stopped her from refuting his statement.
It is true that he has been able to freely spend the money he had accumulated since he returned to Horaijima, so it is not a lie.
* * * * * * * * * * *
So, Jin instructed Hope to keep the in the dining room of the headquarters with Eira and the others.
Jin, Reiko, Eira, Kaechea, and Groma headed for the cafeteria.
They arrived in front of the headquarters after a 5 minute walk. In addition to Jin and the others, there were also students and researchers, indicating that there are people who come here from time to time to enjoy a different taste.
"This is it."
The first floor of the headquarters is open to anyone in <>. Except in case of emergency.
The cafeteria was located in the back of the first floor.
"It's not so crowded yet.
About half the seats were empty.
"We have a set meal here," Groma said.
Groma said and looked at the bulletin board. There was a picture titled "Today's Menu.
"Set meal A is rice, turnip miso soup, plain croquette, vegetable salad, kinpira, oshinko," he said.
"The B set meal is ...... a plain omelette on bread with raisins, topopo (potato) soup, cut cheese, and vegetable salad.
"The C set meal is udon noodles with tempura and oshinko.
"There's even a D set meal? It says, "Sandwich of the day," right?
It seems that there are four different set menus to choose from, Jin thought.
"This illustration is very good.
Jin was impressed by the fact that he could tell what the menu was just by looking at it, even though he had drawn it quickly on the whiteboard.
"Well, I'll have set meal A," he said.
"I'll have set meal B.
"I'll have set meal A." "I'll have set meal B."
I'll have the "B" menu."
In the end, Jin and Katya got the A set meal, and Eira and Groma got the B set meal.
After buying a meal ticket and presenting it at the respective set meal counter, a set meal on a tray comes out in about 20 seconds.
Jin was impressed that the speed was faster than that of standing-only noodle restaurants.
There were about ten people in line, so within five minutes Jin and the others were seated around a table for six.
Reiko also sat down beside Jin, although she did not eat.
"Oh, it's pretty good."
Jin took a sip of the miso soup and thought it was quite to his liking.
"Isn't it? The set menus here are cheap and delicious.
Eira boasted as if she were talking about herself.
