V3 Chapter 21.5 - Meanwhile in Tibet

In the mountain rescue station in Tibet

It has been about a week since one of the helicopters of the rescue station was stolen as the rescue team sat inside a meeting room with a letter in front of them on the table.

"This is a letter we received this morning, you should all check it out and tell me your opinion."

After the letter was passed around all the members of the team, they put the letter back and sat there in silence.

"Anyone wants to go first?"

"I don't think it is trustworthy, we saw who stole the chopper, he was either a dwarf or a child."

"Yes, this is too ridiculous, given that there was a blizzard just a few hours later the chopper most likely crashed with whoever was on it being dead by now."

The contents of the letter were as follows

Dear rescue team,

Tibet Mountain Emergency Rescue Center,

This letter is hereby addressed to you informing you that the helicopter that was stolen from your rescue station has landed at the coordinates xx*xx'xx''N, yy*yy'yy''W.

It is in working condition with no damage, though there might be a slight issue due to cold and snowing.

It is out of fuel for flight and electricity to power up its system so please take note to have maintenance personnel on board when you go out to recover it.

I thank you for letting me borrow it as it allowed me to rescue someone important from dangerous circumstances and I will convey my gratitude to you through another means.

Yours Sincerely,

The boy who borrowed your helicopter.

"I know what you mean but an inspection team will be arriving here in a few days and if we tell them someone stole a helicopter from our base we will all most likely be punished."

"But if we just go there believing this letter and find nothing there, then we will be wasting manpower and resources for nothing which will only make our punishment heavier."

As those words were uttered silence fell upon the room, as the team was contemplating their options a man burst into the room, with ragged breathing and shouted

"Captain!"

"What is it?"

"We just received an anonymous donation, Sir!"

"Then, why are you so agitated?"

"Because of the donation amount, Sir!"

"How much is it for you to panic?"

"Enough to buy another helicopter and replace the one we lost with it and have some change leftover."

The captain and the other personnel in the room were stunned upon hearing that, the captain asked

"The donation was anonymous?"

"Yes sir, but I know who might have sent it."

"How?"

"There was a note along with the donation that said 'From the boy who borrowed your stuff', so I think it is from the person who stole our helicopter."

Everyone in the room was shocked upon hearing that and a moment later the room erupted in cheers, after everyone calmed down slightly the captain said

"Looks like our thief was a good person, then prepare for the flight we will depart in half an hour."

"Where to sir?"

Asked a team member.

"Of course, to the coordinates mentioned in the letter, a helicopter is there for us to take back."

"Yes!"

And so the rescue station got three helicopters, which proved to be a very useful endeavour in the near future, especially for the thief.
