The Amazing Son in Law: Chapters 1851-1855
Chapter 1851
The plane departed from Tokyo Airport and arrived on schedule at Osaka Airport an hour later. First-class passengers disembarked first, as is standard procedure. Xion, having no luggage and seated in an aisle seat, immediately stood and proceeded to the exit as soon as the plane stopped. She exited the aircraft as soon as the door opened.
To avoid delays, the Banks Family’s plane was scheduled to depart in half an hour. Xion needed to proceed to the business jet terminal for another security check before reaching the private jet hangar. Private jet procedures differ from those of commercial airlines; the main terminal serves only commercial flights. Passengers using private or business jets go through security and boarding at the dedicated business jet terminal.
When Charlie Wade emerged from the aircraft, carrying a suitcase, Xion was gone. He smiled, thinking, “So eager to leave? The more you want to go back, the less I want you to.”
He strolled toward the business jet terminal, calling Cameron Isaac: “Isaac, is everything arranged as discussed?”
Cameron Isaac replied, smiling, “Master, don't worry; everything is ready.”
Charlie Wade grunted, “Keep me updated. I’ll be there soon.”
“Yes, Master!”
Upon arriving at the business jet terminal and clearing security, Charlie Wade found Cameron Isaac waiting.
Isaac whispered, “Master, everyone else is aboard. I saw the woman in black you mentioned on WeChat. After security, she took a shuttle bus to Hangar 12. That's the plane you identified!”
He continued, “Our plane is in Hangar 13, next door. Our departure time is scheduled immediately after theirs.”
“Excellent!” Charlie Wade chuckled. “Let's go to the hangar and watch the show!”
They boarded a VIP shuttle bus to Hangar 13, where their Gulfstream jet awaited. The plane that had brought them to Japan had flown from Tokyo to Osaka, where it remained.
Don Albertt, Liam, and others were waiting, disembarking respectfully before Charlie Wade. They greeted him as “Master Wade” and bowed deeply.
Charlie Wade waved, “No formalities. Board the plane; I’m anticipating a good show!” He boarded first, followed by the others. The flight attendant closed the door and asked Cameron Isaac, “Mr. Wade, may we depart?”
After Charlie Wade nodded, Isaac instructed, “Depart now!” The plane was pushed from the hangar. The captain contacted the tower for takeoff clearance. The tower granted clearance, placing them behind a private jet bound for Highland Falls.
Chapter 1852
The captain announced, “Mr. Wade, we have takeoff clearance, behind the China Shipping plane in Hangar 12. Many planes are waiting; takeoff is approximately forty minutes away.”
Hearing that the Banks Family’s plane was ahead, Charlie Wade told Cameron Isaac, “Let's go to the cockpit!”
They entered the cockpit. Isaac asked the captain, “Where’s the China Shipping plane?”
The captain pointed to a plane taxiing, “That’s it.”
Isaac nodded. As the plane turned toward the runway, he told the captain, “Follow it!”
The captain increased engine thrust, and they followed the Banks Family’s plane. Charlie Wade smiled, watching the plane ahead.
Meanwhile, aboard the Banks Family’s Airbus A320, over fifty of their top masters sat. A middle-aged man approached Xion, “Miss Xion, this operation was a success. The Matsumoto family is dealt with. No one died, and our extraction is successful. As long as our planes fly together, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police will never find us!”
Others agreed, praising Xion’s leadership and anticipating a promotion from Mr. Banks.
Xion replied indifferently, “We are all employees of the Banks Family. Do your jobs well, and the Patriarch will reward you.” She promised to report their success and request recognition for their efforts. Everyone was pleased, knowing this meant a substantial cash reward.
Xion’s phone vibrated. It was Zayne. She answered respectfully, “Patriarch!”
Zayne asked, “Xion, how is it? About to take off? No problems?”
Xion reported, “Master, we're in the takeoff queue; departure in at most half an hour.”
Zayne chuckled, “Excellent work! You’ll be rewarded upon your return to Eastcliff!”
Xion expressed gratitude. Zayne offered her a long vacation upon her return to her hometown, extending until the Lantern Festival.
As Xion thanked him, numerous helicopters and armored personnel carriers surrounded their plane. A high-powered speaker on a helicopter announced, “This is the Japanese Self-Defense Force! You are surrounded!”
Chapter 1853
The Banks Family’s masters were shocked. Their escape seemed imminent, with Zayne’s praise fresh in their ears.
The Japanese Self-Defense Force (essentially the Japanese army, rebranded after WWII) had surrounded them with helicopters and armored vehicles. The masters were powerful, but their skills were no match for the military’s weaponry. Moreover, the Self-Defense Force deployed specially trained anti-terrorist units—at least 600-700 troops.
Xion panicked, “What happened?! How did they find us?! Who leaked the information?!”
Fear gripped the others. Their actions in Tokyo had enraged the Japanese government. Tokyo and surrounding cities were on high alert. Their capture was inevitable.
Zayne’s call was still active. Hearing the commotion, he asked, “Xion, what’s wrong?!”
Xion’s voice trembled, “Patriarch…the Self-Defense Force has surrounded our plane…”
Zayne felt a crushing blow. The plane held the Banks Family’s elite, representing 80% of their fighting force, including Xion, a crucial leader. Their capture would be devastating.
Zayne frantically asked, “Ruoli, what happened?! Was there a leak? A traitor?”
Xion nervously replied, “I don’t know…”
The broadcast continued, “This is the Self-Defense Force. Shut down your engines and open your doors for inspection, or face attack!”
The panicked captain and co-pilot immediately shut down the engines. The aircraft was defenseless against the helicopters’ weaponry.
Chapter 1854
The broadcast repeated its demand. The captain announced to the passengers that they faced an attack if they didn’t open the hatch. Panic ensued. The masters were terrified, pacing anxiously. Xion knew surrendering meant certain death but resisting would likely be worse. Special forces typically use directional explosives to breach entry points, followed by flashbangs and tear gas to disable occupants.
In desperation, Xion asked Zayne, “Patriarch…what should we do…?”
Zayne whispered feebly, devastated by the loss of the Banks Family’s elite. The consequences for the Family would be immense. Replacing these masters would be costly, not just financially but also in terms of time and resources. The family would also be liable for substantial financial support to the families of those captured.
Chapter 1855
Japan’s Homeland Security chief and the Director of the Tokyo Warning Agency had arrived in Osaka by private jet. They had been under immense pressure to apprehend the Matsumoto family killers. A mysterious tip led them to Osaka, where the killers were to depart by plane for China. This spurred immediate action. The Homeland Security Department commandeered the case, dispatching the Self-Defense Force to prevent the plane’s departure. They even prepared fighter jets as a backup plan.
The Homeland Security chief contacted the commander, who reported the plane was surrounded. The chief ordered, “Give them one more minute. If they don’t surrender, attack!”
Boarding vehicles approached, and four combat squads prepared to storm the plane, using explosives, flashbangs, and tear gas. Their weapons were ready.
Xion watched the boarding cars approach, deeply anxious. Those inside debated surrendering. Some argued death was preferable to surrender. Others counter-argued that even a lengthy prison sentence was better than immediate death, citing examples like Shoko Asahara. They felt they could still maintain a position of power in prison.
Convinced by these arguments, they looked to Xion, exclaiming, “Miss Xion, let’s surrender!”
