Chapter 491
“We’re ready now. Everyone, put on the equipment. Remember, you must strictly follow the coach’s instructions. If you’re scared, just close your eyes and take deep breaths. When you reach a certain height, the coach will remind you to open your eyes to enjoy the view. The scenery ahead is stunning. I hope you’ll enjoy the experience.” The coach gave the crowd the last few reminders through a loudspeaker.
The helicopter whizzed through the mountains and circled at the top. Wind swept towards it from all directions. From that vantage point, one could’ve enjoyed a panoramic view of Barnes’s beautiful mountains and forests.
The coach continued, “Check if your parachute equipment is ready.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Janet’s coach inspected their parachute pack twice, but didn’t find anything wrong. Then he helped Janet strap on the equipment.
Lila bit her lip nervously as the coach helped Janet with the parachute.
Seeing that the coach didn’t find anything wrong with Janet’s equipment, Lila was relieved.
Janet and the coach were strapped together and they walked to the helicopter door, which had already been opened. Janet suddenly felt a sense of thrill and her stomach did a somersault.
“Get ready. We’ll go first.” The coach’s voice was nearly drowned out in the wind.
As soon as Janet was ready, they jumped out of the helicopter.
The two of them plummeted through the air. At this moment, time seemed to have stopped and a fierce wind whipped at their faces.

Janet screamed subconsciously. When she opened her eyes, she seemed to have integrated with nature.
Just as the coach was about to launch the parachute, he suddenly found that it was stuck.
Janet also noticed that something was wrong.
“Why haven’t you opened the parachute yet?” Janet craned her neck to look at the coach curiously.
But to her surprise, the latter’s face was pale as a sheet and there were big beads of sweat on his forehead.
“The parachute… It’s stuck…” The coach’s voice was trembling. Gritting his teeth, he pressed the button with all his strength.
Fortunately, the parachute finally shot out, but it didn’t open completely.
The malfunctioning parachute couldn’t bear the weight of two people. As they plummeted faster, it began to deform in the air and didn’t slow down their descent at all.
Both Janet and the coach were scared out of their wits. Janet couldn’t help but scream in panic.
Everything was out of control. The two of them swung in the wind violently.
The safety inspectors in the helicopter all noticed what was going on and were frightened as they watched the situation below.
“Contact the control center quickly. There is something wrong with parachute No. 08.” A safety inspector immediately did as he was told.
Lila hadn’t jumped yet. She stared at the figures below, which were getting smaller and smaller, her face full of horror.
She covered her mouth with her hand and couldn’t help but feel inexplicably excited.
The earth was getting closer and closer.
Janet squeezed her eyes shut and felt her life flashing before her eyes. The coach gritted his teeth and tried every means to use the wind to their advantage.
He had rich experience in this field. As a coach, he had also learned many ways to save himself in case of such a dangerous situation.
He tried using the malfunctioning parachute to change the direction of their fall.
Soon, the coach saw a patch of forest in front of them. If they could fall into the trees, perhaps the branches could buffer their fall and they could survive.
“Listen to me. Let’s glide towards the forest and try to fall on a tree!”
Janet was too terrified to speak. She could only nod in a panic.
Breathtaking seconds later, the two of them fell into the forest.
