Chapter Fifty Bullet Blocker

  Two people arrived at the Red Team entrance of Gun Fight House, changed into special clothes and guns, and stood there waiting to enter.

  "Ji Xin'an, Uncle Li is just joking with you, don't take it too seriously." Yao Wenhuo looked at her with some concern, afraid that the good relationship between the two would be ruined by Uncle Li's words.

  "I'm fine, just a joke, I won't mind." Ji Xin'an smiled and didn't take it to heart.

  "That's good." Yao Wen-hao smiled slightly, but his heart sank a little because of her words.

  "Eh, your marksmanship seems to be more accurate than before. Did you practice when I wasn't around?" Only then did Ji Xin'an recall that just now, during the competition among several people, he had hit the moving target with every shot.

  "I've been practicing for an entire summer, and if I still don't have you, it's just not fair." Just mentioning this made Yao Wen Hao even more depressed. Although his mood had improved a lot since Ji Xin An came back, he couldn't forget the gloomy mood he'd been in for the whole summer.

  Ji Xin'an smiled and thought that it was indeed true that one gets what they put in, as before she left, the moving target could hit more than him.

  At this time, they heard the bell that could enter, and the two of them walked in with three other team members.

  The lighting in the shooting house is somewhat dim, possibly intentionally creating this atmosphere. The terrain is also very complex, not a large empty room but a series of interconnected small rooms separated by walls like a maze. This environment increases the difficulty of mutual shooting, but also increases interest in the game, making people feel like they are in a shootout as soon as they enter.

  The red team consisted of five people and did not act separately, but instead had someone on the front and back to be vigilant and move forward slowly, while Ji Xin'an, as the only female, was surrounded by several people in the middle.

  Several people did not make a sound, slowly moving forward, and suddenly the one walking in the front exchanged fire with the blue team. After several shots, the red team lost one person, and the situation of the blue team was not yet clear.

  As they had already exchanged fire and roughly knew each other's position, the two sides began to make frequent contact. Ji Xin'an fired a few shots, feeling that he hit someone but couldn't confirm it yet.

  In this environment, whether you can hit the target depends entirely on luck. After a burst of chaotic gunfire, it seems that good fortune is not on their side. Except for Ji Xin'an and Yao Wenhuang, who are unscathed, the other three have already been hit.

  "Yao Wenhao, can you see how many people are left on their side?" Ji Xin'an asked in a low voice.

  "I don't know, but the person next to me just killed someone." Yao Wenhuo also lowered his voice and kept glancing around.

  "I think I also hit someone, but I'm not sure." Zixin thought about the person she had just seen, at that time she was just relying on her reflective gun.

  "There are still three people left." Yao Wenhao thought for a moment, and in this way, it would be even harder to fight with fewer people.

  "What about us two?" If it were Ji Xin An's own words, she might have thought of a way out on her own, but with someone reliable by her side, the first thing that came to mind was to ask him.

  "This way, I'll go from this side to attract their attention, your marksmanship is good, sneak up from behind." Yao Wenhao thought for a moment and decided to be the bait himself.

  "Let me go instead, your marksmanship is now more accurate than mine." Ji Xinan thought for a moment and felt that he didn't have as much confidence as him.

  "Listen to me." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and ran away by himself.

  Ji Xinan had no choice but to agree, and turned around to walk in another direction. Just after hearing the gunshot from the front, Ji Xinan saw the outline of the three people on the blue team. Although it was very dark, she could see clearly this time. She raised her gun as if shooting targets as usual, quickly firing a shot. One person's body emitted smoke representing "death". The other two reacted extremely fast, and upon seeing something was off, they instantly disappeared from view.

  Once 'killed' in the gun house, she had to go out immediately, so Ji Xin'an ignored the people who were watching her 'death' and ran forward to meet with Yao Wenhuang.

  "There are two more." The two of them bumped into each other and hid in a corner, speaking softly.

  "What should we do this time?" Ji Xin'an saw that his method was effective and asked Yao Wenhuai again.

  "This time I have no choice either. Anyway, they are also two people, we will be together and fight when we meet, whoever wins is the winner." Yao Wenhao's tone was somewhat hard.

  "Didn't they just go that way? We'll take a detour from this side?" Ji Xin'an pointed to another intersection.

  Yao Wenhao nodded and the two of them carefully walked past, circling around several times without encountering anyone. It wasn't until they reached a crossroads that Yao Wenhao suddenly felt something was off. He quickly pushed Ji Xin'an in front of him and opened fire, and this time Ji Xin'an also reacted, shooting bullets at another person.

  In the end, the war ended with the victory of the Red Team. However, only Ji Xin'an was left alive, and Yao Wenhuai 'died together' with one person from the Blue Team.

  Ji Xin'an looked at Yao Wen-hao, who was hit by the fake bullets, and suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart. If he hadn't pushed her away just now, she would have been the one hit. But in that instant, he had decisively blocked her path.

  "What's wrong with you, stupid?" Yao Wenhuo patted Ji Xin'an, who was still in a daze.

  Ji Xin'an came back to her senses and looked at Yao Wenhuo, who was laughing happily because of his victory. "What would you have done if that was a real bullet just now?"

  "What else can be done, just die." Yao Wenhuo was still smiling, the moment just now was an instinctive reaction, there was no time for him to think about it, and it wasn't part of his plan to pursue Ji Xin'an. He really just subconsciously wanted to protect her in front of her. Ji Xin'an's question, he knew what she meant, but the unease in his heart made him avoid a direct answer.

  Ji Xin'an smiled and didn't say anything more, but in her heart, a feeling called being moved began to flow.

  Because it was the first demonstration match, both the red and blue teams received membership cards from the shooting range, while Ji Xin'an, as the only 'living' person, received a custom-made gun. Uncle Li said that her name would be engraved on it, left here, and every time she came, she could use it exclusively without having to pay rent again.

  "Ji Xin'an, you're really something! The blue team had five people, and three of them were taken down by you. You truly deserve this special prize!" Li Shu gave her a thumbs up with a smile as he handed her the gun.

  "It's all thanks to everyone, if they hadn't been holding the front line, I wouldn't have had the chance to shoot, and would've died at the hands of the enemy long ago." Ji Xin said humbly, knowing that she was just a bit luckier than others.

  "You're quite modest, not bad." Li Shu looked at her with even more satisfaction.

  After the crowd dispersed, only she and Yao Wenhuang were left. Ji Xin'an pulled up his hand and slapped the gun in her hand into his hand.

  "What are you doing?" Yao Wen-hao looked at the gun in his hand and raised his eyes to see Ji Xin-an smiling at him.

  "This is called courtesy, I'll give it to you." Ji Xin An handed over the gift.

  "How can that be? I just gave you a small broken tank, how can I take your gun?" Yao Wenhao understood and immediately declined.

  "What's the difference, aren't they all spoils of war? Besides, if you hadn't blocked that shot for me just now, who knows whose hands this gun would have ended up in. Giving it to you is the most rightful thing to do, if you don't accept it then take back the bullets and tank I gave you just now."

  "Don't take it anymore, I can still afford to pay you back." Yao Wenhuo smiled and grabbed her hand that was rummaging through the bag.

  "This gun will be yours from now on. I'll tell Uncle Li later, and we can engrave your name on it." Ji Xinan remembered that this gun was specially made for him and needed to have his name engraved on it.

  "No way, I'll give it to him and have him engrave both our names on it." Yao Wenhuo said excitedly while examining the new gun in his hand.

  Ji Xin'an felt that something was off, but seeing his excited expression, she didn't say anything and let him go.
