Chapter 5, Explosion

The frail male student kept emphasizing the visions he had foreseen. To be honest, Bella found his ability quite remarkable, as if he had gone through a process and then rewound the time of individual entities. The way he narrated it seemed very vivid and realistic, completely different from the kind of death omen Bella had experienced herself.

The fat old man handed her a business card

The indoor temperature suddenly dropped by three to four degrees, but at that moment, no one had the leisure to think about the glass and the floor. Everyone, including Bella, stared blankly out the window, watching the fireball burn fiercely in the sky and fall towards the ground

Mom! I am scared!

The gaze of the plump old man was directed towards the distance, his expression somewhat melancholic

Two seconds later, a shockwave from a violent explosion struck the glass of the waiting hall, producing a loud bang. Several passengers standing by the window were directly blown away, and newspapers, cups, and hats belonging to passengers in the hall were scattered everywhere.

Several men discarded their so-called composure, covering their heads, their faces filled with disbelief. The women embraced their children, attempting to instill some courage in their offspring, yet in reality, they themselves were also terrified.

Among them, Bella, the frail male student Alex, the dark-haired young man Sam, and the brown-haired female student Claire are all key individuals being questioned

I believe that ... ... " Before she could finish her sentence, a remarkably large fireball erupted in the distant sky.

The number of victims exceeds one hundred, among whom many faces still faintly appear before Bella's eyes, including the mocking female students who ridiculed her for her plain appearance and the corporate executives who scolded her as a lunatic. Now, everything is gone

Since someone is willing to attract fire, she will not step forward to highlight herself

Does America have something called history? ... Bella secretly despises that so-called American history; she only remembers the story of the cherry blossom axe Washington and the vampire hunter Lincoln

"Do not worry, child, a kind reminder is not a sin, and it is alright even if one is wrong. We do not curse others with malice, but we will not allow good people to be punished for it," said the plump old man with a white beard and white hair, sitting beside Bella to offer comfort.

John Gray, a professor in the Department of History at Bard College in New York

Hello, Bella, I see that you are very anxious. Are you worried about the government's reprimands? I know a few friends, so you need not be afraid

The female teacher, who was still apologizing to the airport supervisor in hopes of allowing herself and her students to board as usual, suddenly turned pale. There was a sense of relief, but more so, there was regret. If life were to start over, she would definitely stop everyone.

Bella does not have a business card, so she can only introduce herself: "Isabella Swan, Professor, you can call me Bella"

Do you believe my ... ... my nonsense? she asked thoughtfully

The brown-haired female student Claire Redfield, who is the least suspected, was the first to be questioned

Our history carries original sin, this land does not belong to us, and this sky harbors animosity towards us. In 1821, in Idaho, the residents of a small town and the gold miners all perished, without wounds, without any signs, a total of five hundred people, all suddenly dead, and there are many similar cases. The government believes it was a massacre organized by the Indians, while I believe it was nature's revenge.

The airport supervisor was also stunned; it was the captain who assured that the plane was fine, patting his chest in guarantee! ... I wonder if that fellow has already passed away by now ... ...

The survivors in the waiting hall were engulfed in an inexplicable panic

Bella feels that the old man's statement is very close to the truth; what exactly the Grim Reaper is in the movie remains unclear to anyone

Her perception seems to be of a certain mental nature, while the frail male student appears to be temporarily exhibiting extraordinary abilities

Of course

Miss Redfield, I have not seen any prior interaction between you and Miss Swan. Could you explain why you support her viewpoint

The law does not extend to the deceased; he who is alive must bear the misfortune

Many passengers are somewhat skeptical, or rather, they adopt a mindset of preferring to believe in the possibility rather than dismissing it entirely. There are indeed very few who unequivocally support their own views and hold them with absolute conviction.

Global Airlines has already been facing various pressures due to poor management, and now the incident involving Flight 180 has dealt them a heavy blow. Whether it was a mechanical failure or a fuel explosion, nothing can prevent this airline, established in 1925, from plunging into the abyss

At this moment, Bella was indeed feeling very guilty. After the impulsive urge to save someone, all that remained was fear. She was more aware than anyone else of what she was about to face, something that beauty, wealth, and social status could not contend with

At 9:25 AM, the plane took off, and shortly thereafter, a massive explosion occurred. Despite the airport authorities dispatching rescue teams amidst heavy rain, everyone expressed pessimism regarding the rescue outcome. In such circumstances, the chances of survival are exceedingly slim.

She hardly received any memories from her previous life; all things considered, she has only been in this world for three days! There is simply no time to read books

She is unaware of what content is covered in history classes here in the United States and can only respond ambiguously: "I know a little."

A middle-aged man dressed in a long wool coat displayed his credentials to several individuals; he is a C1-level field supervisor for the FBI's Phoenix office, bearing a rather clichéd name, or perhaps a pseudonym, introducing himself as Henry

Didn’t you say the plane was fine? This is murder! Do you understand murder? You stupid pig! You are all murderers! The frail female teacher grabbed the airport manager's tie, having previously heard him confidently assert that the plane had no faults, and now what?

Child, do not be afraid, do not be afraid, mother is here! Mother is here!

Police, firefighters, FBI agents, and various media reporters took turns questioning the survivors with a wide array of inquiries

I saw it! I saw the entire scene, everything was exactly as I remembered. The left engine of the plane caught fire, and then the flames from the explosion rushed into the cabin. I saw you, you, and you; you all died! All died!

The fine rain outside was swept into the waiting hall by the fierce wind, and the brightly lit floor was stained with a layer of mud. Whether it was an illusion or not, Bella caught a faint whiff of blood in the air.

From questions about religious beliefs to human rights issues, from political stances to supported sports teams

Oh! God!

Are you a high school student? Have you studied American history?

Some are kissing the cross, some are sitting in their seats in a daze, and others are couples embracing each other, expressing their relief at having escaped a calamity

Is this how it looks when nothing is wrong? How is she supposed to explain this to the families of the students who suffered?

It is a certain very ominous premonition that if I board the plane, I will die, just that simple

Premonition? Is it gone? Do you mind if I record it truthfully?
