Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

Chapter 149 What Are You Hiding?

"Celine will also go with you. Her friend will be coming back from abroad this week. So, there's no need for her to stay here anymore. I'll handle everything here." Faith stated.

"Since they are all going, I'll have to go too." Angy shrugged. She was Wendy and Celine's friend. So, if they left Inchoate city, there would be no need for her to continue staying there.

"Okay then. The helicopter will arrive in an hour. But, we will be departing tomorrow morning. So, be prepared." Jack said.

He was going to go to Kartu city with more than twenty people. It was obvious that the eurocopter could not take them all at the same time. So, he was going to use the helicopter that he had been awarded by the system as the first income reward for the security companies.

Although he previously wanted the plane to be delivered by the system once the merging was completed, the current situation stated that they had to get the a bigger helicopter. Or, they could as well go to Volant city and take a plane to Kartu city.

But, that was something that Jack didn't want. He didn't want to go through a lot of procedures and so on just to book a plane. He wanted to leave at his own convenience.

If possible, he would have used the Boeing private jet. But, it was still in venture city, a four hours long trip.

"What kind of helicopter can accommodate all of us?" Johnathan asked suspiciously.

"You are bringing your team?" Jack asked with raised brows.

"Of course I am. Otherwise, why would I leave them here? They are convenient in doing some of the small tasks you know." As he said these, Johnathan gave Jack a smile that only he could understand.

Jack snorted and asked, "How may of them?"

"Not many. There are only fifteen of them." Johnathan stated.

"What are you saying Johnathan? Fifteen people in a helicopter and you are saying that the number is not big?" Wendy looked at him incredulously. She couldn't believe this guy at all.

Wendy had already asked her grandfather to cancel the engagement between her and Jack the previous day. She had simply stated that the Alfonso family had cheated them and that Jack wasn't there.

In other words, since Jack wasn't there, they were going to replace him with another person. This made Alton angry and that was the reason as to why he had contacted Dalton personally the previous day to inform him about cancelling the engagement.

On the other hand, the reason for her asking for the engagement to be broken was simply because she had realized that she had gotten the wrong person. The person that she was supposed to be engaged to was Johnathan.

He was the one that had saved her. Furthermore, he was the one that she knew the most because he appeared in the area that he had saved her frequently. So, most of the times that she sneaked back to crystal city, she would mostly see Johnathan and not Jack.

The number of times that she would have seen Jack was far lower than the number of times that she had seen Johnathan. So, after some talk back in the star hospital when Johnathan was admitted there, she realized that he was the one that she liked her at least.

Although he had yet to confirm their relationship, she was sure that he loved her, just like how she did. After all, the way that he treated her was special as compared to the way that he treated Celine and Angy.

On the other hand, Jack was already a no go zone. After all, the way that he and Celine were interacting was enough to tell her that the two of them were comfortable together. And, not wanting to cause problems for her sister, she had decided to withdraw the engagement before it was announced.

"What are you talking about. Fifteen people is such a small number of people if we start comparing the number of people that have been hired to take care of the two mansions here." Johnathan refuted.

"What has the mansion got to do with the number of people that you are bringing?" Wendy blinked her eyes as she asked in confusion.

"It has everything to do with it. The helicopter belongs to Jack. And what's more, the mansion belongs to Jack. So, everything about the number of people that I'm bringing along has everything to do with Jack." Johnathan explained.

"You are not making sense at all." Wendy shook her head, clearly not understanding what Johnathan was trying to imply.

On the other hand, Jack could understand. Johnathan was implying that just like the subordinates that were taking care of the mansions, his aim of having the fifteen come with them was so that Jack could utilize them.

He had already seen how efficient they were. So, Jack didn't think that it was a bad idea to bring them along. "The helicopter can accommodate them even if you double the number." Jack stated.

"Ah? What kind of helicopter is that?" Johnathan looked at Jack, clearly not believing his words at all.

"Why don't you wait for an hour and see?" Jack shrugged, not willing to explain anything.

"Okay then." Johnathan agreed.

An hour later, the sound of a helicopter could be heard coming from outside the mansion. The group that was still chatting in the living room could already tell that this was the helicopter that Jack had said that it would be here in an hour.

Since they were going to leave the following day, none of them was willing to leave the living room and check the helicopter for the time being. After all, they had found an interesting topic that they were talking about. Once they left, the flow would be ruined.

About ten minutes later, Celine entered the living room. "Jack, who's helicopter is that outside?" She asked as soon as her eyes landed on Jack.

"It's mine. It's the one that we will be using to go to Kartu tomorrow." Jack stated.

"That big? Don't you already have a eurocopter? What is the use of that big one now?" Celine asked. Although she had just heard from Jack that they would be heading to Kartu the following day, she didn't say a word because it was natural that she would be heading there as well. Her duty here was already completed and the little that was left could easily be handled by Faith.

"There are more than thirty people going. So, we will need a bigger one." Jack explained.

"Oh, okay." Celine nodded. Although curious about who it was that was going to add the number to over thirty, she didn't ask. Anyway, she would see the people the following day.

After hearing the conversation between Jack and Celine, not only Johnathan, but the three ladies were curious about what kind of helicopter Jack had, that could actually accommodate more than thirty people.

One had to know that a helicopter had a maximum capacity that it could efficiently handle. Once the maximum capacity was exceeded, it would affect the performance of the helicopter.

They were going to Kartu city. So, it meant that it would take them a long time to arrive there. They wouldn't want to be slowed down due to something like the number of passengers on the helicopter was exceeding the maximum that the helicopter could handle.

The four of them got out of the mansion, completely forgetting about the interesting thing that they were talking about. They wanted to see what kind of helicopter it was.

After about twenty minutes, the group came back to the mansion. Johnathan looked at Jack as he asked in disbelief, "Jack, where on earth did you get that helicopter from?"

"I bought it of course. Or, is there somewhere that they give them out for free so that I can go and collect more?" Jack shrugged as he responded.

"Be serious. That kind of helicopter is mainly used by the big institutions like red cross or the bigger hospitals. Maybe some big security companies have them as well. But for you to have one as well, this is surprising." Johnathan said as he sat next to Jack.

"I bought it, alright?" Jack couldn't tell them that he actually received the helicopter from the system. What's more, he wondered how Johnathan would react when he knew that Jack actually had three of the helicopters.

"Is the helicopter that special?" Angy asked. She wasn't the only one as even the other girls were curious about the helicopter. After all, they knew that Johnathan's background wasn't small. For the helicopter to make him to react in such a manner, there had to be something special about it.

"You guys may not know this. The helicopter out there is special. It's called Mil mi-26M. It's a helicopter mainly used by the big security organizations. Even the army will use this kind of helicopter. It has a large carrying capacity and can carry a lot of weight."

"What's even more, the helicopter out there is one of the ones that is modified for the security companies. It can deploy up to eighty troops. As for the price, hehe, it's worth over $10M. The number of this helicopter that have been produced in the world amount to less than 500. Even my family only has one." Johnathan explained.

When the girls heard the description of the helicopter, they were greatly surprised. They couldn't help but look at Jack again. They didn't know how many secrets Jack was hiding. He could afford such a helicopter.

Not only was the price high, considering that the number of the helicopter itself was limited, for Jack to be able to acquire one, this explained that he was hiding too deep.

The Jesda family had only one of them. On the other hand, Jack also had one of them. Didn't that mean that he might as well be of the same level as the Jesda family in terms of influence?

"Jack, just what are you hiding?" Johnathan asked.

"Nothing much. It's just that the helicopter out there was bought just recently. As for where I got it, you shouldn't worry about that. You may be surprised in the future that I actually have three of them." Jack stated with a smile.

"As if I will believe it. To get one of them is already a miracle. How can you get three of them?" Johnathan couldn't believe it.

"That's up to you." Jack didn't explain further.
