Chapter 361: Training With a Moving Target!
She slept until seven in the morning.
It was Sunday. Gu Qingjiu had nothing planned, but she decided to go to the shooting department in school.
Last time, the Vice-Commander had told her about the stationary target and Gu Qingjiu had to hurry and practice.
After arriving at the school, Gu Qingjiu went to have her breakfast first.
There were a lot of options for food offered in the canteen. She ordered spicy noodles from one of the stalls, and just when she was about to walk to a table to eat, she noticed Gu Qian and Chu Lian entering the cafeteria holding hands.
Gu Qingjiu immediately waved at the two of them.
Upon seeing her, Gu Qian and Chu Lian smiled excitedly.
Gu Qian walked over and Chu Lian went to order at one of the stalls.
“Qingjiu, didn’t you go to the city to play? Why are you back already?”
Gu Qian sat opposite Gu Qingjiu.
“There was nothing much going on so I came back first. Are you here with Chu Lian?”
Gu Qingjiu twirled some noodles and wolfed down her food.
“Yes, we’re here since it’s the weekend. However, I heard that there will be emergency training next week. I doubt we’ll be able to rest next week.”
Gu Qian patted her shoulders and Gu Qingjiu chuckled. “Aren’t we all used to that already? Emergency training can happen anytime.”
As she spoke, she was almost finished with her noodles but Chu Lian wasn’t back yet.
They had grown used to fighting against time usually and ate very quickly.
Gu Qingjiu wiped her mouth after eating. Gu Qian mumbled, “Why did you eat so quickly?”
“I have to report in the shooting department. I have some time now and I have to practice.”
“Oh my, why are you still working so hard when you’re already innately talented?”
Gu Qian looked at Gu Qingjiu in awe. They were already exhausted from their usual training. Shouldn’t she also rest when she has the time to?
Gu Qingjiu laughed. “Enjoy your food. I’m leaving!”
Gu Qian waved goodbye. “Go ahead.”
After leaving the cafeteria, Gu Qingjiu returned to the dormitory and changed into her uniform before leaving for the shooting department.
Gu Qingjiu had no idea how crowded the shooting department would be, especially since it was a Sunday. She pondered in the hall and went straight to the fourth floor.
The training hall had a moving target spanning fifty meters.
She didn’t start training with the twenty-meter target because she felt that she could forgo it if the fifty-meter target range suited her.
If it didn’t, she would practice with the twenty-meter target instead.
Unexpectedly, when she entered the hall where the fifty-meter moving targets were located, no one was around.
It was definitely better for her with no one around.
Gu Qingjiu walked forward and randomly selected a target. Tapping her card to activate it, the initially stationary target began to move slowly.
The practice distance was similar, but even with the large space, there was not enough area for ten targets to be moving around at the same time.
Therefore, each target only had ten meters to move horizontally.
Gu Qingjiu followed Lu Yibin’s words. She didn’t select the gun model 75 that she was skilled at, but she instead chose model 139.
From her previous practice round, it was clear that Gu Qingjiu yet had to perfectly grasp handling model 139. It was undeniably a little reckless for her to use it to start practicing with the moving targets now.
But if she didn’t take the risk, how would she have known that she could hit the twenty-meter target during her first round of practice?
Based on the training she received, the gun model 139 was more suitable for war than the 75.
She selected a gun from the armory. She checked its body and confirmed that it was in order. Loading the bullets, she was ready to practice.
She had her eye on target number five. The round target was currently moving slowly like an elderly man.
To Gu Qingjiu, this speed was not challenging.
