Chapter 210 - 210: I’m Not A Kid Anymore

Right then, Victor's safety was the most important, so he didn't consider Sophia's feelings about the ticket price. He didn't want Sophia to pay for the flight, but if she insisted, he would agree.

He just couldn't do anything about Sophia.

Albert, Ryan, and Benjamin sat on the other side. Ryan didn't know anything and just put the seat flat and fell asleep. Albert, however, looked at Sophia from time to time and was always aware of the passing.

Benjamin yawned a lot and looked drowsy. Albert had heard about Nicole from Sophia and had doubts about Benjamin's ability. So he would not ask such an irresponsible detective to protect Victor. And he just didn't tell him anything.

In fact, Albert wouldn't have gone to Benjamin if it weren't for David. It had been half a year since the lab fire, but the killer still hadn't been found. He didn't have much confidence in Benjamin.

When he made a phone call with David, David was sorry, "My son… Actually, he has some strength, but he is not serious about anything. Well, I'll go there myself and see if I can find out something. I heard about the case here. It's famous. Many detectives are trying to get the information and try to reason the truth."

Albert asked at once, "So, is there any result? So many people investigate it, there must be some clues, right?"

David sighed, "No. Everybody thinks the case is suspicious, but no man's trace can be found. If it's not an accident but a murder, then it's a perfect crime. There's no way to find the killer."

One hour later, Victor got up and wanted to go to the bathroom.

Bridget would take him there. Sophia worried about them and followed up. Bridget was an adult, but she was just a weak woman. If someone wanted to hurt her, it would be quite easy.

Victor felt strange, "I'm not a kid anymore. You're a girl. You can't go to the bathroom with me. My mother said no girls should see me go to the bathroom!"

Bridget said, "It's just going to the bathroom. It's gonna be okay. We'll be back in a few minutes."

But Sophia still worried about them and went with them there. She went into the bathroom first and made a check. It was a single room, very narrow, with only a toilet and a sink there. It was less than ten squares. Making sure it was completely closed, she went out and let Bridget take Victor in.

As soon as the door closed, she had a strange feeling that… something was wrong!

Sophia called outside, "Are you inside, Bridget?"

But there was no response. She felt that something was wrong inside. She didn't have time to ask the steward for the key and just kicked on the door. She kicked it hard, and the door was not quite strong, so she kicked it open.

When the door opened, Bridget Thompson was on the ground, motionless, and a small, gray man was holding Victor by the neck. Victor struggled, but he was too weak to break free.

Sophia kicked the gray man in the head. The man rolled on the ground and avoided his kick. Sophia bowed up and picked up Victor. Luckily, she got in on time, Victor was fine. It was just that there were some marks on his neck that looked quite serious.

Obviously, the man was going to strangle him but was interrupted by Sophia when he just started.

The man got up and reached for Victor. Sophia got Victor up and pushed him outside, "Run! Go to Albert!"

It was urgent, and the only one she believed in was Albert.

She stopped in front of the man, kicked him into his stomach, and tried to control him. The man was flexible. He turned aside to avoid the kick and then ducked out of her side.

Obviously, he didn't want to fight Sophia, and he just wanted to finish his job right away.

Sophia hurried out. Victor had run out but couldn't be far in such a short time. If the man caught him, he could kill him in seconds.

Apparently, the man was desperate to kill Victor.

Sophia was worried. Saving Victor was the most important. There was no time for her to check Bridget, and she just ran out.

The bathroom was between first class and business class. Through the corridor in front of the bathroom, there was the first class. Sophia had asked Victor to "go to Albert." Victor knew Albert was in first-class that he would certainly run towards it.

She ran to first-class and saw Victor standing behind Benjamin, who looked confused, "Who are you? Human traffickers? Steal children?"

The man said angrily, "Get out of the way! I'll kill you!"

He reached out his fist to hit Benjamin. Benjamin shouted loudly, turned back, and ran with Victor in his arms. He ran very fast, although holding Victor, even faster than the man in grey.

In a flash, Benjamin ran to Albert. Albert had heard the noise and stood up in front of Benjamin.

"Bugger off! Give the boy to me!" The man shouted and punched Albert.

Albert stood still. Suddenly, he reached out and caught the man's hand. After a pull, the man fell on the ground. Everything happened in two seconds. The man hadn't realized what was going on when he fell on the ground.

Ryan took the chance to flatter Albert, "Well done, boss! You're amazing!"

Right then, Sophia arrived and saw Albert secure the man and relieved him. "Keep an eye on him. Don't let him get away," she said.

Then, she turned to check Bridget in the bathroom.

The guards on the plane also arrived and brought the man to a special room. Then the captain announced that the plane would make an emergency landing at a nearby airport because of an accident and would take off after the rectification.

Bridget was knocked unconscious, slightly injured, and woke up shortly afterward.

When she woke up, she cried to see Victor and was relieved when she saw that Victor was safe and sound.

She told them what had happened in the bathroom that she was knocked out as soon as she entered the bathroom and didn't know anything.
