Start By Becoming A Mangaka
chapter-214

They still had three engines on the plane. It was enough for them to land back in that airport.

Yuuki needed to keep the balance of this plane. He adjusted the rudder for the third throttle valve.

"That's good, what is your current altitude and speed?"

"3000 feet, 200 knots," Yuuki answered.

"Change the flab to 5 and change the horizontal flight."

Kaitou did what the monitor control instructed. He changed the flab and horizontal flight.

"Face 180 degrees forward and ascend to 4500 feet."

"Got it," Yuuki answered.

"All we have to do now is circle and wait for clearance?" Kaitou asked.

"Yeah, as long as the auto-pilot function is back and the runaway becomes clear, we can land as soon as possible," Yuuki answered.

When they were talking to each other the door was being opened.

"Yuuki-Nii! This is a problem! The engine is lost!" The detective kid, Conan, Haibara, Sonoko, Ran, and Chiaki came together.

"Don't worry, we already know that," Yuuki said.

"We can still use land using the three engines that are left," Kaitou said, then he looked at the display, "Also there's enough fuel, eh?" He was startled.

"What's wrong?" Yuuki asked.

"We are almost out of fuel!" Kaitou said with a serious expression.

"What?" Yuuki was startled. He looked at the fuel display and saw there were only 3641 lbs of fuel left.

"Out of fuel!!!" Everyone was startled.

"There is no more fuel?" Chiaki, Ran, and Sonoko said worriedly.

"What's going on?"

"Is it because the engine fell off?"

"No, the engines should each have their own fuel tank," Yuuki said.

Kaitou looked around the monitor and noticed something strange, "The fuel valve is open?"

"Eh? Fue- what?" Genta didn't know what it meant.

Kaitou hurriedly pressed the switch to close the fuel valve.

"Press that switch and the valves that separate the tanks will be opened, making it one big tank," Yuuki explained.

"Dammit, how did it happen?" Conan said.

"Aaah!!" The detective boys group told them that the old man who helped to carry the pilot touched it by an incident.

"Tsk, that old man," Yuuki wanted to strangle him right now. He looked at everyone and said, "There isn't much time left."

"Yeah," Kaitou nodded and asked everyone, "There is a map over there, someone bring it over."

"THIS IS FLIGHT 865, THERE IS AN EMERGENCY," Yuuki reported to the radio. He kept reporting but it was futile. It seemed they lost the connection with the control center, "Damn, auto-pilot, runaway, fuel..." He started to think it was better to not meet Conan at tall, " And now even the radio communication is gone too." He felt a headache and took a deep breath. He needed to calm himself now. Even though he had 100 proficiency but there was a mix factor such as Conan in this plane. He was wondering if he threw Conan out, it would make the landing easier.

"Even the auto-pilot too?" Ran was confused.

"So you are manually piloting it?" Sonoko was startled.

"Don't worry, believe me," Yuuki looked at them with a serious expression.

No one said anything, they needed to believe in him since he was the only one who could control this plane.

"I believe in you," Chiaki said.

"Thank you," Yuuki gave her a slight smile.

"Here is the map," Conan gave them a map.

"Thank you," Kaitou opened the map.

"There are about 3000 lbs of fuel left," Conan said.

"At 300 lbs/min, we've only left with 10 minutes left and we need to find a landing area within that area," Kaitou said.

"Finding a landing area? What do you mean?" Sonoko asked.

"There's no way the runaway is going to be ready in 10 minutes," Yuuki said.

"What about Shinjike Airport?" the flight attendant said.

"It's too risky," Yuuki shook his head and added, "It's possible that the fuel will run out before we get there."

"What about other airports? Isn't there any other airports around this area?" Sonoko asked.

"Nope," Haibara said plainly and added, "There might be a farm with a runaway or an army base, but the length of the runway is not long enough."

"Ah!" Sonoko was startled.

"How about landing on the road? There are a lot of big roads on Hokkaido," Mitsuhiko said.

"That's impossible," Kaitou said and startled everyone.

"The airplane's tires are 11 meters apart, roads that are 12 meters or above are obliged to place road signs and central reservation, there are also residences and power lines nearby," Conan said.

"What about farms?" Genta asked.

"No, the ground is too soft, how about the nearby shores?" Haibara said.

"No, the waves would cause the plane to overturn," Yuuki shook his head.

Everyone became silent and tried to think hard about where they could land safely. They didn't have much time and needed to find it as soon as possible.

Kaitou looked at the map with a serious expression.

"Long, straight, and clear of obstructions," Agasa said.

"What if we are unable to land? What's going to happen to us?" Genta asked.

"When that time comes, the plane will crash," Mitsuhiko said.

"I don't want to die yet," Genta said.

When everyone was in discussion suddenly Ayumi said to Yuuki, "Yuuki-Nii, I know a place like that! Very long, straight, and clear of obstructions."

"Really? Where is it?" Yuuki asked.

"Last time, I watched a TV show during this Ocean Appreciation show," Ayumi said.

Yuuki looked at her weirdly until Conan said to him.

"Docks!" Kaitou said.

Kaitou hurriedly opened the map and searched the location, "Shinyi dock... Naka dock... Motoanshi dock... Morororanka dock... Seki dock..." He kept searching it until he found it, "I found it! Sakimori Dock! Estimated length is 1400 meters, width 30 meters."

"But what is the width of this plane?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"Yes, 60 meters," Yuuki said and added, "But if I let one of the wings stick out over the sea," Yuuki said.

"It's impossible, there isn't enough stopping distance, the stopping distance for this caliber of a plane exceeds 2000 meters, there is also a problem with the ground hardness," Haibara said.

"I don't know if it's luck or not, but we don't have enough fuel left and there aren't many passengers, the lighter we are, the shorter the gliding distance, if we're against the wind, we can shorten it even more," Yuuki said.

"I remember the weather forecast at the airport saying there was going to be strong western winds throughout the night," Mitsuhiko said.

"Really, kid?" Kaitou was quite excited.

"Yes!" Mitsuhiko said.

"This port is stretched from the east to the west, as long as we head into the wind, we can land from the east!" Kaitou said to Yuuki.

"Good, let's go there," Yuuki nodded and asked, "What is the bearing to Muroran?"

"I'm looking at it right now," Kaitou said while looking at the map, "Found it! It's on the flight path to Sapporo." He moved his finger and said, "We will be on route to Muroran if we continue in this direction, bearing is 023 degrees."

"023, is it?" Yuuki changed the HDG to 023 degrees.

"We have to maintain an altitude of over 5000 feet to fly over that mountain," Kaitou said.

"Roger," Yuuki said and looked at the flight attendant, "Please, tell the passengers we will be flying to Shinchitose."

"Yes," She nodded at him.

"Also, tell the first-class passengers to move down to the 1st floor," Kaitou said.

"Eh?" She was confused.

"There is no time to just do it," Yuuki said to her, then he asked everyone, "You guys also need to move too."

"Eh?" Everyone was confused.

"There is nothing, you can do here, so I would rather have you to comfort the other kids, this is a very important job, if you can't do it, I'll get others to do it, so, can you do it?" Kaitou asked the detective kid.

"I got it!"

"I will do my best!"

"Leave it to me!"

"Ok, I'll leave it to you guys," Kaitou nodded.

"Roger!" The detective kids said.

Yuuki looked at the other person and said, "You guys move too."

Ran, Sonoko, and Conan were moving but Chiaki was there.

"I'll be here," Chiaki said.

Yuuki shook his head and said, "No, go down."

"No! I want to be here with you!" Chiaki said with full determination.

"Oi, oi, if you want to have a love quarrel, do it after we land this plane safely," Kaitou was annoyed.

Yuuki knew no matter what he told Chiaki wouldn't move, "Chiaki, come closer."

Chiaki felt weird and moved closer to him regardless.

"It's not enough, bring your head near to me," Yuuki said.

Chiaki moved her head closer and she was startled when she was kissed by him.

"Whistle!" Kaitou looked at the scene in front of him.

Yuuki kissed her lips for a second then he moved back, "This is for my good luck, please go down and tell everyone that we're going to land safely, let's have fun in Hokkaido after this and I'll also treat everyone."

Chiaki was blushing but nodded at him. She wanted to know what their relationship would be but she knew this wasn't the time to ask him that question. She hurriedly walked back toward the 1st floor.

Kaitou looked at Chiaki's back and nudged his shoulder, "Damn you, Playboy, I'm very envious of you."

Yuuki looked at him with an annoyed expression, "We don't have time to do that, how about you get out and give me some light."

"You know my plan?" Kaitou looked at him with amazement.

"Of course, there isn't enough light in the dock, I know since I came there often," Yuuki had come to Tokyo Bay and it was very dark.

"Why do you go to the dock? Are you fishing or something?" Kaitou looked at him weirdly.

Yuuki shook his head and said, "No, I fed the fish there." He hadn't been lying since he came to feed the fish in Tokyo Bay with his treat.

"I'll go after we descend to 2000 feet," Kaitou said.

Yuuki nodded and believed in him.

Yuuki was pretty lonely here alone in this pilot room.

Kaitou had gotten out of this plane to attract the police to come to the dock. The police car would brighten the dock and make it easier for him to land there.

Even though Yuuki didn't need that since he could see clearly with his magic but he needed some alibi to do that. Even if Kaitou failed his mission he could land this plane safely. He sighed and said, "Kuroka, why don't you come out? There is no one here."

"Nyaaa! You notice, I'm here!!" Kuroka erased her transparent magic and sat in the co-captain seat, "Nyaa! This is my first time to become a pilot! Nyaa!!"

Yuuki looked at her with a weird gaze and asked, "How do you know?"

"Nyaa, this becomes news on the TV," Kuroka said and added, "Do you need our help?"

Yuuki shook his head, "If I use my magic, I won't even need you to do something."

"Nyaa, that's true! You're a lot stronger than me, after all," Kuroka moved closer and glued her cheek to his cheek, "I don't know, you can drive a plane, nyaa!"

"Well, do you want to do it with me sometimes? I can make a greater airplane with my magic," Yuuki could do anything after all.

"Really, nyaa? I can't wait for that, nyaa!" Kuroka smiled at him.

"Did Vali and everyone know?" Yuuki asked.

Kuroka nodded, "Yeah, I'm talking with everyone right now with telepathy, they are very surprised to know you're the one who drives it, they will also come to the dock to help you."

"Tell them, thank you," Yuuki said then he asked her, "What about Utaha, Ranko, and Yukana?"

Kuroka shook her head and said, "They're very panicked, your dad picks them to calm them."

Yuuki sighed in relief since his dad helped him. He turned his head and said to her, "Thank you, Kuroka, I'm pretty lonely here alone."

"Nyaa! Are you courting me, Yuuki?" Kuroka smiled.

Yuuki raised his eyebrow, "It's too fast for that."

"WHY, NYAA!! YOU KEEP FLIRTING WITH OTHER GIRLS EASILY. YOU ALSO KISS THAT GIRL EARLIER!! BUT WHY I'M NOT?? AM I NOT ATTRACTED ENOUGH?" Kuroka asked sadly.

Yuuki shook his head and said, "You still have some regret somewhere, I won't start until you can give your entire heart to me."

Kuroka looked at him and said, "You're very greedy, nyaa."

"I know that's why I'm helping you to tend to your relationship with your sister right? After your relationship better, let's have mile high club," Yuuki said seriously.

"You pervert, nyaa!!" Kuroka laughed and rested her head on his shoulder, "I'm counting on you, nyaa."

Yuuki nodded and didn't say anything.

Yuuki looked seriously at the display monitor. He looked at the dock and saw many police cars were moving toward the dock and brightened the dock.

"Nyaa! That thief is a success!" Kuroka said.

Yuuki nodded and decreased the altitude to prepare for the landing. He turned the wheeling steer to the left and moved toward the dock.

Kaitou Kid looked at the plane which was moving toward the dock, "I'm counting on you, Yuuki!!"

Utaha, Yukana, and Ranko felt really bad when they knew Conan was there. They looked at the monitor anxiously. Issei had his own channel to make it possible to watch the process of their landing. They were together with Issei, Raku, Tsugumi, Marika, Honda, and Chitoge to watch him land the plane.

"Aniki, please be safe," Raku was very nervous.

"That kid is tough, I'm sure, he can land the plane safely," Even though, he said that Issei was very nervous and clenched his hands very hard.

"YUUKI-SAMA!!!" Marika was crying right now while looking at the screen.

"Marika-sama, you should believe in Yuuki-sama," Honda tried to calm her.

"B-b-but...." Marika was scared.

"If you really love him, you should believe in him," Utaha only uttered those words and looked at the monitor again. Even though she said that she was still worried about him.

Marika felt offended by her words. She wiped the tears in her eyes and looked at the monitor. She needed to believe in her Yuuki-sama.

Yuuki took the announcer on the pilot cabin and told to the passengers, "Passengers, the plane will now attempt an emergency landing, please fasten your seat belts and follow the instructions of the flight attendants."

'Yuuki..." The Hitotose group closed their eyes and believed in him.

Conan looked up and thought, 'Don't fail, Yuuki.' His expression was very serious.

Height: 700 feet, 140 knots.

Yuuki looked at the monitor, it was almost the time to land the plane.

"Yuuki, that kid with glasses really has a bad aura around him," Kuroka said with a serious expression.

Yuuki nodded, "He is the Human Version of Hades, you won't die but you'll be in very bad luck if you met him, be careful." He was wondering if Youkai could see something different on Conan.

Kuroka nodded, "That's true, you're in this pain in the ass situation."

Yuuki ignored her and focused on maintaining a 3-degree descent on the plane. He looked at Kuroka and said, "Kuroka, can you pull down the decent lever, pull up the flap lever?"

"Which one, nyaa?" Kuroka looked around.

"It's over there and here," Yuuki pointed to it with his finger.

"Ok, nyaa!" Kuroka was happy that she could help him. She felt very happy when she thought she could save many people like this.

BEEP!BEEP!BEEP!

"What's wrong, nyaa??" Kuroka was startled.

"Nothing, the fuel isn't much left, we need to land as soon as possible," Yuuki said.

RATTLE!!RATTLE!!RATTLE!!

50 meters from ground level.

The plane kept vibrating and shaking around.

40 meters from ground level.

Yuuki kept descending the plane to the dock. He pulled the head of the plane and pulled the joystick to the end.

10 meters from ground level.

The plane kept descending and the tires hit the ground. It landed on the ground but it was still moving very fast. He aimed the head of the plane down to stop the plane from moving. He pulled the reverse stream to stop this plane.

BSHHHHHH!!!!!!

Yuuki looked serious and hoped this plane would stop faster.

"Yuuki!! There is crane ahead!! We're going to hit!!" Kuroka said to him.

"I know!" Yuuki stepped on the rudder with his right leg. He changed the direction of the plane and moved it to the right. He kept stepping on the rudder even though the left wing of the plane hit the crane.

BAAMMM!!!

The crane was destroyed because of the clash between it and the wing of the plane.

CRRTTTTT!!!!!

Yuuki looked ahead as the plane stopped near the contraction place in the dock. He sighed in relief and felt very mentally drained right now.

"WE'RE SUCCESS!! YAY!!" Kuroka jumped into him with an excited expression.

Yuuki smiled and hugged her. He didn't want to drive the plane for a while.

Vali, Le Fay, Bikou, and Arthur looked at the plane which was stopped.

"Sigh, that guy really did it," Bikou sighed in relief.

"Yeah, what a crazy guy," Arthur nodded.

"I'm glad that everyone is safe," Le Fay said while looking at the plane.

Vali nodded and turned back, "Let's go back, they are safe."

"You have to show some emotion," Bikou said.

"Everything is fine, that's all that matters," Vali said.

They shook their heads but followed his back who made him their leader after all.

Yuuki was hugging Kuroka until the door opened. Kuroka hurriedly transparent magic and hid it.

"YUUKI!!!" The Hitotose group, the flight attendant, Haibara, Sonoko, and even Ran jumped into him.

Being hugged by a lot of girls, Yuuki knew this accident had least given him some benefit. Now, he needed to enjoy his time in Hokkaido since he was very dead tired right now. He slept on Chiaki's shoulder soundly.
