Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! - Chapter 362
Chapter 362: Tough Practice
There was a stark difference between movement and stillness.
Many shooters were well adjusted to stationary targets, but not skilled at hitting moving targets.
It was because the movement caused disruption to their focus and sight.
Therefore, it was much more difficult to hit a moving target than a stationary one.
It was Gu Qingjiu’s first time practicing with a moving target and the current speed was already relatively slow.
Her solemn and cold eyes were focused intently on the moving target and her pupils followed the center of the round target as it moved.
The targets in school were all of the same sizes.
The only difference was whether it moved or not.
With such a slow speed, it wouldn’t be difficult for Gu Qingjiu to hit the target right in the middle once she grasped its moving pattern.
However, it was still moving around after all.
Even if she could identify its pattern, Gu Qingjiu wasn’t sure if she could hit the target.
Her mind was spinning from how hard she focused and her gaze was locked on the right dot in the center.
When the timing felt right, she shot!
Bang!
“Target five, five points!”
Gu Qingjiu was rather surprised to hear the results of her shot.
It was worse than what Gu Qingjiu had expected.
However, she was dealing with a gun model relatively foreign to her and also moving targets.
Her results were considered average.
But…
Gu Qingjiu observed the target. It had been moving slowly initially, but after Gu Qingjiu’s last shot, it sped up!
Compared to its initial speed, it was twice as fast now!
As a result of the unexpected change in speed, Gu Qingjiu’s understanding of the moving pattern was messed up.
She was in shock.
This moving target is such a pain in the neck!
But this made it challenging.
She narrowed her eyes. She was already sick of boring, stationary targets.
If everything were so simple, shooting would be too easy for her.
Even if she were a genius, there will also be times when she had to train herself.
It seemed like this would be an area where she had to sharpen her skills.
She observed closely for half a minute. After figuring out the pattern, she fired.
“Bang! Target five, seven points!”
Although it was two points higher than the previous round, Gu Qingjiu didn’t feel like she was improving. She thought it was merely luck.
In the empty shooting hall, only Gu Qingjiu’s firing noises rang throughout.
Gu Qingjiu increasingly felt annoyed with the moving targets.
After firing every shot, the targets immediately would change its moving pattern, completely preventing her from growing used to it.
The most frustrating round would be when the target moved just like a man running about.
It felt as though it had jumped straight from easy to difficult mode.
Feeling irritated at that instant, Gu Qingjiu fired.
Two points!
This was the worst result she had produced ever since she joined the military school.
It was also from a fifty-meter target.
It was merely fifty-meters. What would happen if she were to practice with a hundred or two hundred-meter targets in the future?
She feared what was to come and didn’t dare to imagine it.
After shooting only two points, Gu Qingjiu stopped and pondered. Was she truly not as skilled at hitting moving targets as compared to stationary ones?
Or was there some other reason?
Suddenly, the lift behind her opened and Lu Yibin emerged from it with a smile.
“Do you find it too difficult to hit moving targets?”
Gu Qingjiu watched as Lu Yibin walked towards her. Feeling surprised, she asked, “Vice-Commander?”
It was as though he knew what Gu Qingjiu was confused about. He explained, “From the control room at the shooting department, I can see everything that’s happening here. I already saw you here.”
