Mercenary at heart - стр. 29

Theodore walked out of the office. In the hallway, the Silvers were waiting impatiently for him. Mariana immediately rushed to him asking him how everything went and what questions the municipal worker was asking.

George: "All right, let's go. You can tell me on the way. I'm sure it wasn't anything difficult."

The family left the building and their car and returned home. All in all, everyone was filled with positive emotions and happy that the process of being officially welcomed into the family was now underway. Mariana went to her work, George began to deal with business matters, constantly calling someone, and Michael and Ted went up to their room to rest.

Time continued to pass. After 1.5 weeks, an inspector showed up on the doorstep performing a welfare check on the family, which the Silvers passed without difficulty. After 2.5 weeks, everyone was summoned to the same office where the initial interview had taken place to officially enter into the database that Theodore was a member of the Silver family. The deed was done. The addition to the family had taken place.

754. Michael stood on the runway of one of the neighbouring towns. Next to him was a small two-seat dark blue helicopter, designed for one passenger and a pilot. But since it was a training model, the passenger seat had been converted for an instructor pilot. It was equipped with a second steering wheel and an instrument panel exactly like the main pilot's. Michael had come here to take a proficiency exam in flying several models of aircraft and one helicopter, which he was just in front of.

There were several CCTV cameras in the cockpit, monitored by a panel of three people standing nearby in business suits. Next to Michael was to be flown and backed up by his school instructor, who taught practice in flying skills.

The parents knew that the overground transport exam was one of the most difficult and dangerous. So they decided to come and support their son. Ted, who had finished his training early, arrived with them. Officially, the diploma of graduation from a specialised school should have stated that Michael was able to drive all types of above-ground, surface and land transport. However, even for 12 years of study to master all kinds of transport was simply physically impossible, especially given the fact that almost every year there were new and new models. That's why everyone realised that everything written in the diploma was rather formal. In the end, the graduate chose only a certain direction in the implementation of transport and then specialised in it all his life, constantly improving his skills. That's why the exams were passed only on two or three training prototypes, confirming the fact that the student had mastered the basic skills of their management.
