Chapter 3579: Never Afraid
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ye Jian saw the head of education suddenly smiling at her. His seriousness was gone. She smiled back before retracting her gaze.
She knew the head of education, and the head of education knew her too. He must know a little about what happened that night. However, she believed that the head of education would abide by the rules of a soldier and not expose what happened that night.
She didn’t have to worry anymore. In the past, she was afraid that she would expose herself because the mastermind behind her mother’s death hadn’t been found. Now that the mastermind had been killed, it didn’t matter if the school leaders knew something about her.
Her grandfather was planning to tell all his good friends, colleagues, and subordinates that she was his granddaughter at his birthday banquet this year.
Ye Jian retracted her gaze and smiled at the soldier. “Thank you for your reminder just now. My shooting speed has always been like this. I’m not shooting randomly.”
Her attitude was the most upright.
“Always been like this?” The soldier was surprised. If this was the case normally, her instructor would definitely criticize her severely. If there was no criticism, it meant that… she was not only fast but accurate too.
The soldier’s expression changed. “What about your accuracy? Is it high or low?”
“It’s considered alright. I won’t fall behind.”
As she spoke, Ye Jian saw that her last senior had already finished shooting all the semiautomatic rifles. When he stood up with his gun, Ye Jian smiled at the soldier who was talking to her and said, “You can go and take a look at the target. I don’t think I missed.”
It turned out that the soldier thought that she was shooting too quickly and had a high miss rate. That was why he reminded her.
The soldier indeed thought so, and so did the platoon leader. The school leaders who were very confident in Ye Jian were a little worried. However, when they thought of Ye Jian’s outstanding performance during the freshman exercise, they felt that their worry was unnecessary.
The leader who had always objected to reporting Ye Jian’s name smiled and patted his colleagues’ shoulders. “Don’t be discouraged. With Ye Jian’s outstanding performance, there will be many opportunities in the future. This time, let the more experienced students go.
“The competition is not a small matter. It’s a small matter if it’s just losing dignity, but it’s a huge matter to the country. It’ll be difficult for her to answer to the country when she comes back. She might even suffer a huge blow because of this. These are not things we want to see. She needs to be stable and not too anxious.”
The soldier had already run over to check the target. The leaders who insisted on selecting Ye Jian didn’t say anything else. The results were soon announced.
What was the result?
Seeing the hole on the target, the soldier wiped his face and rubbed his eyes. He probably didn’t believe what he saw, so he immediately ran back and asked the platoon leader to take a look.
When the platoon leader heard this, he even glared at his soldier. He didn’t even know how to look at a target? Wasn’t it embarrassing?
It wasn’t embarrassing!
That was because there was only one bullet hole in the entire target. This bullet hole was huge, and the center circle was empty!
The platoon leader ran over and saw the bull’s eye-sized bullet hole left on the target. His expression changed drastically as he quickly went behind the target and lowered his head to search in the grass.
Soon, he saw the scattered bullets and immediately instructed the soldier, “Pick up all the bullets in this area and count how many there are!”
The soldiers bent down and picked them up one by one. It took them a little longer.
The other students’ shooting results were out. But the platoon leader had to run over to confirm how many points Ye Jian had scored.
