Each week at The North-West Weekly, we choose one of our readers' best stories about something real but amazing that happened to him or her. Here Jennifer Dos Santos told us about the mysterious story.
I'll never forget that journey. It was a cold November day and I was flying from Portland to Seattle to visit my family. I was busy reading an interesting novel on the plane, so I didn't speak to the businessman next to me. But I remember him very clearly. He was wearing a smart suit and dark sunglasses, and he wasn't acting strangely or doing anything unusual.
After an hour, he called the flight attendant( 乘务员). He talked quietly to her and showed his briefcase to her. Then he stood up and followed the flight attendant to the front of the plane. He didn't return to his seat for the rest of the trip. Finally we arrived safely in Seattle, and all the passengers got off the plane.
The next day I learned the truth from the newspaper. The plane didn't stay in Seattle. Instead it flew down to Mexico. The man in the suit was a hijacker( 劫机者). He told the flight attendant he had a bomb( 炸弹) in his briefcase, and that he requested 200,000 and a parachute( 降落伞). When the plane landed in Seattle, the man received what he wanted and forced the plane to fly to Mexico. During the trip, he put on his parachute, opened the door of the plane and jumped with all the money in his briefcase!
What happened next? Nobody knows. The man just disappeared into thin air!
