Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

The three best friends turned to look at Shen Jingshu in unison, their eyes full of curiosity.

Shen Jingshu lowered her voice and briefly described the whole incident, only telling them: "It was a hijacking by several people, and their target was a Mr. Xu in business class."

Song Ran swallowed hard, her throat dry, and asked in a low voice, "Then...did you take care of all those thugs?"

Lin Miaomiao also gripped Shen Jingshu's wrist tightly: "Jingshu, when you went out just now, my heart was in my throat, I was so afraid something would happen."

Xu Zhixia quietly looked at Shen Jingshu. She knew Shen Jingshu's capabilities better than the other two, but she was still shaken: "Thankfully, it's all over. Once we land in Yunnan, will we have to give statements to the ground staff?"

Shen Jingshu gently patted the backs of the three people's hands and softly reassured them, "Yes, relevant personnel should board the plane after landing to briefly explain the situation. Don't be afraid, it's all over now."

The engines roared smoothly as the plane continued its flight towards the airport in Yunnan.

The plane's landing gear made steady contact with the runway, and the fuselage trembled slightly as it slowed down and taxied. The airport in Yunnan was already on high alert, with the entire area sealed off, and a separate runway reserved for this flight.

Inside the cabin, the captain, first officer, and many passengers by the window all saw the massive formation along the runway and were startled. Fully armed special police and armed police were lined up and ready to go, ambulances and police cars were parked neatly, red and blue police lights were flashing, and medical personnel stood by the vehicles, ready to respond at any time.

Once the plane had come to a complete stop, the cabin door slowly opened, but passengers were not immediately allowed to disembark. As soon as the door opened, a team of armed special police officers boarded the plane in an orderly fashion to hand over the suspects. Shortly afterward, the four robbers were hooded, escorted down the gangway one by one, and placed into a special prison van.

Two air marshals disembarked and reported the situation to the waiting department heads. Once it was confirmed that no one on the entire flight had been injured, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts filled with disbelief.

Hijackings are extremely dangerous, and similar incidents rarely result in zero casualties. Everyone instinctively assumed that the two security officers single-handedly subdued four armed hijackers, but considering the number of attackers, their firepower, and their equipment, this seemed virtually impossible. Only after hearing the security officers' full account did everyone realize that the biggest contributor to successfully averting the crisis with zero casualties was a young girl.

Immediately, all the leaders present developed a strong interest in this mysterious Miss Shen.

Immediately afterwards, passengers began to line up in an orderly manner to disembark. Under the guidance of staff, they went to the information point in batches to give statements. Medical staff were also on hand to provide assistance and comfort the frightened passengers.

Shen Jingshu, along with Xu Zhixia, Song Ran, and Lin Miaomiao, followed the group down the gangway. As soon as the four landed, a steady voice blocked their path.

"Miss Shen."

A tall, upright man in military uniform strode forward, his gaze falling on Shen Jingshu, his expression respectful yet serious. His shoulder insignia were prominent, and he exuded an aura honed from years of missions.

Xu Zhixia and the other two subconsciously stopped and quietly moved closer to Shen Jingshu's side, their hearts tightening slightly.

Shen Jingshu remained calm and looked up at the other person: "Hello, is there something you need?"

The man in military uniform nodded slightly and said, "My name is Zhang Tao. We are fully aware of what happened on the plane. Thanks to your intervention, you protected all the passengers and Dr. Xu. Our superiors would like to see you to get a brief overview of the situation. It won't take up too much of your time. Your three friends can come along."

Song Ran quietly tugged at Lin Miaomiao's sleeve, lowered her breath, and dared not make a sound.

Shen Jingshu calmly replied, "Okay."

Shen Jingshu and her three companions followed the man in military uniform into the makeshift rest room, where a leader in military uniform was seated. Upon seeing Shen Jingshu enter, the leader stood up and solemnly saluted her.

"Miss Shen, thank you so much this time. Without you, this hijacking would have undoubtedly resulted in casualties and caused huge social unrest. I heard you single-handedly subdued four hijackers; may I ask if Miss Shen is skilled in martial arts?"

Shen Jingshu looked up at the other person, but did not answer. She simply reached into her pocket, took out an ID card, and handed it over.

The officer in uniform reached out and took the document, flipped through it to read the contents, and his expression suddenly changed. He quickly closed the document, respectfully handed it back to Shen Jingshu with both hands, and saluted again.

"So it was you. Since you're from that department, it's not surprising that you were able to subdue these robbers."

"If there's nothing else, can we go now?" Shen Jingshu asked calmly.

"Of course, Miss Shen, please go ahead."

Zhang Tao, who had led the way earlier, stepped forward and led Shen Jingshu and her group out of the lounge. Shen Jingshu met up with her three friends, left the airport together, hailed a taxi, and headed towards the hotel they had booked in advance.

After seeing Shen Jingshu off, Zhang Tao returned, filled with curiosity, and whispered to his superior, "Sir, what is this Miss Shen's background? She only showed you an ID card, and then you didn't ask her any more questions."

The leader chuckled lightly: "It's just bad luck for Viper and his gang to run into her."

Zhang Tao was still completely confused.

"There are many people and things in this world that you don't know. Our country has a special department that specializes in handling all kinds of unconventional and special events, and Miss Shen belongs to that department."

"I see." Zhang Tao had only heard rumors about this department but had never had the chance to meet anyone in it. "But she looks so young, she's clearly just an ordinary college student."

"I just reviewed her basic information; she is indeed a student at Peking University. People in that department usually live in the shadows, indistinguishable from ordinary people, and they don't reveal their identities unless it's a special occasion." The leader spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on the window. "Dr. Xu's research findings are of great significance this time. If they fall into the hands of foreign forces, the consequences would be unimaginable. Fortunately, Miss Shen happens to be on this flight."

Zhang Tao nodded in realization, all his doubts were resolved, and he secretly memorized the name Shen Jingshu.

Inside the taxi, Song Ran looked back to make sure no one was following, then let out a long sigh of relief: "My goodness, the atmosphere in that lounge was so serious. Jing Shu, what was that ID?"

Xu Zhixia turned her head to look at Shen Jingshu, her eyes filled with understanding. Lin Miaomiao also came over, her eyes full of anticipation, eager to hear what was to come.

Shen Jingshu leaned against the car window and smiled gently: "It's just a special department's identification document, which saves us a lot of questioning. Okay, don't worry, we'll be at the hotel soon and get some rest. Our Yunnan trip hasn't even started yet."

The car continued forward, with the scattered street scenes of Yunnan's urban area visible outside the window. The afterglow of the setting sun shone between the buildings, and a thrilling aerial crisis finally came to an end.
