Chapter 807: The Transporter
From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show
"Wake up, everyone! Our flight is in an hour!" June exclaimed from the living room.
He had already packed some food for the boys since they didn't have time to eat breakfast anymore.
Today was the day they were going to Beijing, China, for the Jade Music Festival.
Jay wasn't there with them since he was busy with LUNAIRE's debut showcase that was going to happen later in the evening.
So, June was set to drive for them.
June sighed impatiently after he arranged all of their luggage. He knew that it was their first time going overseas together, but the boys seemed to have overpacked.
They were only going to stay there for three days! And by the morning of the third day, they needed to go back to Korea.
"What's taking them so long?" he muttered, impatiently tapping his foot on the floor.
He glanced at the clock once more and shook his head.
There was less than an hour left, and he was sure that they were going to miss their boarding time if they didn't go out of the house in a minute.
"Guys, I'm going to count to three," June warned, already feeling frustrated. "If you don't come out in those three seconds, then I'm leaving without you."
With his statement, he heard things toppling over and protests from his members' rooms.
"One," June started off.
More things fell over, and more screams were heard.
"Two," he continued.
"Three!"
Their doors opened nearly at the same time.
Different fragrant scents wafted through June's nostrils, making him frown.
Then, his frown deepened when he saw what his members were wearing.
"What are you guys wearing?" June asked as he observed their outfits. "Are you all going to a fashion show or something?"
The members turned to each other, not finding anything weird with their outfits.
Instead, it was June's outfit they found weird.
"Are you sure you're wearing that to the airport?" Akira asked.
June frowned and looked down at his outfit.
"Yes," he said. "What's wrong with it?"
It was an outfit that a regular person would wear to the airport!
The other boys exchanged looks before shrugging.
"It's alright," Casper said. "His face is great anyway."
"Yeah," Jaeyong said. "You should wear what's comfortable for you."
June clicked his tongue and shook his head.
"Well, we have to go," June said. "Our boarding time is thirty minutes from now."
"Crap," Jaeyong muttered. "I lost track of time. Can we make it? We still need to face the reporters."
"Reporters?" June muttered under his breath, confused. Why would there be reporters in the airport?
June frowned and disregarded Jaeyong's statement. "If you guys moved faster, then we wouldn't have to rush."
"Jay's not here, too," Jisung said, biting his lips in nervousness.
June clicked his tongue. "Just hurry up and grab your things. I'll get us to the airport."
The boys once again exchanged looks, appearing skeptical as they followed June to the van.
June didn't waste any time turning on the engine.
"Wait," Zeth said from the backseats. "Can you drive?"
June smirked as he turned the gear. "Of course!" he exclaimed.
He wasn't just a driver! He was nearly as good as the transporter!
June had even driven amidst a gun shooting; rushing to the airport was a piece of cake for him!
With that, he stepped on the gas and went out of the parking lot at the speed of light.
The members jolted in their seats, and at that moment, they felt that their lives were in danger.
The guard of their dorm felt something pass by, but it didn't quite register in his mind.
"What was that?" he muttered. "A fly?"
As they got to the street, June drove even more ruthlessly.
Zeth closed his eyes and began praying to every god in the universe despite not being faithful.
Akira and Ren hugged each other even though they swore they were enemies.
Jaeyong's soul left his body as June overtook a car.
Casper, on the other hand, was enjoying the car ride like he was in an amusement park.
"Watch out!" Sehun exclaimed when he saw a dog unexpectedly crossing the street.
June looked unfazed as he swerved to the right, successfully evading the dog without compromising other people's safety.
Well, except for his members, who felt like their souls had left their bodies.
The ride to the airport, which usually took thirty minutes, had shortened by half, and the boys
were there in no time.
June turned off the engine when he saw that the guards were already waiting outside.
"They'll take care of the van, right?" he asked, but none of them answered him.
He turned around and saw his members' pale faces, almost as if they had seen a ghost.
June frowned. "What happened?" he asked.
Jaeyong pursed his lips and shook his head.
"Remind me not to let June drive ever again," he muttered.
Meanwhile, outside the van, a huge crowd waited.
Multiple large cameras graced the airport while fans wearing masks covered the perimeter.
Jia and her friends stood at the sides, frowning as they took in the amount of people in the
airport grounds.
"What is this?" Bora muttered. "They're occluding the walkways for the other passengers."
Soomin frowned as she continued looking around. "Has there been such a huge crowd in an airport before?"
"In my five years of fangirling, I don't think so," Nari said. "This is insane! Almost every crevice is covered."
Jia bit her lips in nervousness. "I just hope they have plenty of guards."
Bora nodded in agreement.
The reporters for various media sites had also set up their cameras, narrating what was happening. The feed was live on YouWatch and multiple fans who weren't able to make it to
the airport tuned in.
"Good morning, everyone!" the reporter of ThisPatch exclaimed.
"Today marks a historic day. The newly-appointed nation's boy group is going to their very
first overseas schedule."
She panned the camera around and gasped.
"Wow," she said. "It seems like a lot of people want to see EVE today. I don't know how
they're going to go through this crowd."
"Anyway, I think their van just arrived! However, they're taking a long time going out."
"I'm really excited for their airport outfits! Who do you think will have the best one?"
- June!
- June looks good in anything.
- I think it'll be Akira. He's a true people-pleaser.
- Please! It's going to be Zeth.
- I agree with that.
The crowd gasped as the door finally opened.
"They're here! EVE is finally coming out!"
