Chapter 155 (1/2)

155. Search Operation 3

Then we headed for the rescue fleet whose position has been confirmed.

At this point, the position, course, and speed of the rescue fleet have already appeared on the radar screen, so it's almost straightforward. Because it's already straight ahead, I can transfer this plane to the expected position of the rescue fleet save some time.

”Warp!” (Mitsuha)

Although the position is slightly off, of course, there are no problem because the location of the 3 ships were shown on the radar.

The plane went over the fleet in the alt.i.tude where the engine sound can't be heard from the surface.

”How's state of the crow's nest?” (Mitsuha) (Note: Crow's nest)

”There seems to be one watchman” (the Lookout)

To my question, the lookout confirmed with a binocular and reported the state to me.

”Roger that. Proceed to phase 3!” (Mitsuha)

With that said, I reviewed the steps in my head.

Transfer to the crow's nest, take the watchmen to the deck, transfer back to the crow's nest. Do it quickly, before the watchmen have the chance to react.

Alright, let's go!

Then I removed the headset, again.

”Transfer!” (Mitsuha)

”Uwaah!!” (the watchmen)

He was on the crow's nest, but suddenly appeared on the deck. Of course he would be surprised.

And now I'm taking the place where he was in.

Right, the transfer was successful.

There's no problem with the kinetic energy of the flying plane due to the inertial cancellation during the transfer. In other words, the transfer can be carried out without the need to counter that energy.

And it seems that I also can apply a certain amount of kinetic energy during the transfer. In other words, I can match the kinetic energy of the flying plane during the transfer so that I won't be tossed around due the inertia difference between me and the plane.

…how does it work? I don't know! The part of [it] is fused with my brain and directly reading my mind! The details are remained unknown…
