Gu Ning turned into an alley on the side of the street after leaving the community, and dialed the mobile phone number that she had memorized in her mind after arriving at the phone booth.
After a burst of melodious music, a sleepy, lazy and impatient voice came from the receiver: "Hello?"
Gu Ning said: "Hey, early, the method is me."
The method on the other end of the phone seemed to wake up all of a sudden: "Gu Ning?"
"Well. It's me." Gu Ning paused, and then said: "Well, I want to ask, what I asked you to do yesterday..."
Before Gu Ning could finish speaking, Method interrupted her: "It's already done, come and get the money."
After speaking, I hung up the phone.
Gu Ning looked at the handset with the busy tone in his hand, and felt like Fa was angry
"What's wrong? Your face smells so stinky early in the morning? Who offended you." Lao Li sat down opposite Fa Fang and said slowly after drinking boiling water.
"Alas—" Fafang sighed, but instead of arguing with Lao Li, he leaned on the table and said sadly, "I feel like a fool."
Old Li was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Hey! It seems that something big has happened!"
"Alas—" Fang Fang sighed again.
When Fang Fang received the call and went out, he had already made up his mind to make it clear to Gu Ning that he would not help her with these things in the future. I feel like I'm running errands. If she still asks me to help this time, I must resolutely refuse, and let her know that he is not a person who comes and goes when he is called, and he is also very busy, okay
Fang Fang typed the draft in his heart, then walked towards Gu Ning who was standing in the yard.
Before he had time to hand over the plastic bag, Gu Ning was the first to hand over a very delicately packaged paper box.
"What?" Fang Fang looked at the paper bag that Gu Ning handed over, and subconsciously took it before asking, "For me?"
Gu Ning nodded: "Well. I bought it when I passed the cake shop. I don't know if you like it or not."
Facing Gu Ning's vaguely expectant eyes, Fang Fang had forgotten that the creamy and sweet things he disliked the most, subconsciously said: "I like to eat..."
Gu Ning showed a brisk smile: "That's good."
Fang Fang paused, and handed over the black plastic bag in his hand: "Because you need money in a hurry, they have lowered the price, and it is estimated that it will be a little less than the market price. Here is 17,000 yuan. And Give me 20,000 in an account, and he will punch you in."
Gu Ning took it, holding a stack of thick banknotes, couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, showed a smile, and then took ten out of the 20,000 yuan and returned them: "This is the money to pay you back."
Method took the money and put the money directly into his pocket, then glanced at the black plastic bag in Gu Ning's hand, half joking and half serious, and said: "Don't you count it? It's less out of my sight I'm not responsible either."
Gu Ning smiled, then looked at Fang Fang and said: "Fai, I don't have many friends, I am very happy to have a friend like you."
Fang Fang was stunned for a moment, moved by the sincerity in Gu Ning's eyes, he sighed in his heart, and then said: "I am also very happy."
Gu Ning said with a smile: "I've been very busy recently. When I have time, I will treat you to dinner."
Method said: "You should buy yourself a mobile phone first... It's inconvenient to contact you."
"Yeah. Okay. I'll call you when I buy a mobile phone. Then I'll go first." Gu Ning waved at him as he spoke, and walked out with a plastic bag.
Fang Fang watched Gu Ning walk out of the gate, then picked up the paper bag, stared at it, scratched his head, but it was useless to write a word of his own manuscript.
"Hey? Kingdee's cake! I saw it just now. That little girl is Gu Ning, right? She seems to get along well, and she even came all the way to bring you a cake." Old Li said gossipingly.
A policeman said: "Captain Li, you are talking about that blond-haired little girl who came yesterday? The one who has been missing for three months? Method is dating her? Yes, method is fast enough!"
Fang Fang said: "What a mess! If I do a favor for someone, can they just buy me a piece of cake as a thank you?"
Another policeman smiled and said, "Hey method, I remember you don't like sweets. I just came here in a hurry and haven't had breakfast yet, so you can give me the cake."
"Roll, roll, roll!"
"Haha, look, you can't bear it. Last time a little girl gave you a cake, didn't you just give it to the big guy? The key depends on who sent it, right Lao Li?"
"you do not say."
Here, Gu Ning didn't waste any more time, hired a taxi, and went straight to the army.
Putting the plastic bag into the bag that he carried with him, Gu Ning felt a little more relaxed in his heart. If there is a chance in the future, he will still bring more things that can be sold, and work hard to get rid of poverty.
It was already past nine o'clock when we arrived at the army.
The third brother stood at the gate and looked around, his eyes lit up when he saw Gu Ning getting off the taxi, and then complained: "Gu Ning, why are you so slow?"
"My home is far away from here, and it takes two hours to come here. I'll go out at seven o'clock." Gu Ning said while handing over the money owed to the third brother: "This is the money to pay you back."
The third brother took the money and said: "Don't waste time, we will start a new project today."
Gu Ning asked curiously: "What new project?"
The third brother said mysteriously: "You will know when you get to the shooting range."
When they arrived at the shooting range, Zhang Xiaobai and others came over to greet Gu Ning enthusiastically, and complained that Gu Ning came too late.
"We've all played one round, it's too difficult." Zhang Xiaobai said.
Gu Ning's curiosity is getting heavier and heavier.
The third brother took the telescope from Zhang Xiaobai and handed it to Gu Ning, saying, "Wait a minute, it's Zhai Jun, take a look and estimate the gap between yourself and him."
Gu Ning took the binoculars and nodded, then looked at Zhai Jun, who was waiting with a gun in his hand.
Gu Ning's arrival silently put a lot of pressure on Erlian.
A soldier motioned Zhai Jun to look this way.
Zhai Jun glanced this way, his face a bit dignified.
Zhang Yueguo, the commander of the second company, also had an ugly expression on his face.
The company commander Zhou Zilai greeted Gu Ning with a smile. The soldiers of the company had never met Gu Ning before, but they had heard Zhou Zilai's introduction before, but they looked at him curiously for the first time.
After a while, colorful hydrogen balloons rose up from a hundred meters away one after another, and everyone's eyes were focused on it.
Gu Ning looked at those hydrogen balloons in surprise, at first he thought they were hitting them with a gun, but when he took a closer look, he could see a fist-sized round cardboard hanging under the hydrogen balloons, and the round cardboard was like a target. The circles one by one, the naked eye can't see clearly, and only Gu Ning's mutant eyesight can see the red dot on it clearly.
The third brother said: "The people from the five-star brigade last year did this for people to hit. Twenty bullets, our three companies, the best result we hit was six out of ten targets, and only one The bullet hit the bullseye."
Zou Ming said ashamedly: "Last year I hit four. Now the best score is six."
Zhong Xu said: "Last year I won five, this year's best result was eight, and the worst time was one or two."
Zhang Xiaobai said with a grin: "I didn't come at that time last year. My best result this year was eight hits, and I hit the bull's-eye with two shots. That balloon was flying too fast."
When the few of them said this, Gu Ning immediately felt invisible pressure.
While they were talking, Zhai Jun had already fired several shots.
The process is to hit the cardboard first and then knock the balloon down, if say you hit the cardboard and the balloon flies away, it doesn't count.
Twenty bullets, ten balloons, ten cardboard pieces.
The cardboard must be hit first, otherwise, even if the balloon is hit but the cardboard is not hit, it will not count.
There were only a few gunshots, and each shooting paused for about three to five seconds. The balloon kept rising, and it could rise to a height of more than ten meters in about ten seconds. No matter how high or far away, it was completely invisible. When it comes to that piece of cardboard, you can only judge by the feeling and the balloon you can see. However, the bullets are limited, and one shot is one less, so a balance must be found between the two. Gu Ning looked through the telescope, the cardboard was dangling in the air and occasionally twirled, it was indeed difficult to aim.
Not long after, Zhai Jun's twenty bullets were fired, and the exploded balloons dangled and fell from the sky. Only one balloon dangled and floated to a farther place. A soldier shot Zhai Jun down. All the balloons were picked up and sent over.
All the soldiers from the three companies who were qualified for the five-star brigade selection gathered around and began to check the marks on the cardboard.
There were nine pieces of cardboard in total, eight shots hit the cardboard, one was an empty target, one was edged by bullets, and two shots hit the bull's-eye.
This result is considered very good, but it obviously did not meet the expectations of Erlian. You can tell by the expressions of Zhang Yueguo and Zhai Jun.
The third brother asked: "Gu Ning, how is it? Do you want to go now or watch two more rounds?"
Gu Ning said: "I probably know what's going on, let's practice first."
Zhang Xiaobai excitedly handed over a gun and said, "You probably haven't played like this before. Don't be nervous, take it easy, it's not a formal assessment yet."
Gu Ning took his gun and said with a smile, "Well, okay."
Then stand on the yellow line.
I tried aiming for a while, and then nodded to the soldier holding a small flag over there after finding out the feeling.
The soldiers over there just raised the flag and lowered it.
Then a red hydrogen balloon flew up a hundred meters away, and everyone waited with bated breath for Gu Ning's first shot.
The yellow cardboard was reflected very clearly in Gu Ning's pupils, she aimed at the red dot in the center, and then pulled the trigger without the slightest hesitation.
"Bang!" Gu Ning's first shot rang out.
The third brother held up the binoculars and clearly saw that the yellow cardboard was blown by the strong wind brought by the bullet. The bullet passed the yellow cardboard, but did not hit the yellow cardboard.
The third brother couldn't help but exclaimed regretfully: "It's almost there!"
Zhang Yueguo, the second company commander over there, saw that Gu Ning's first shot was missed, his face softened a little, and he said sarcastically: "It's a thousand miles away, thank you."
Gu Ning has already cut off the sound of the outside world. She concentrated on it. A lot of information appeared in her mind at the moment when the shot just missed. She adjusted her state according to the information and aimed at the yellow cardboard again. At this time, the second The balloon has already flown.
Zhang Xiaobai couldn't help shouting: "Don't worry about the first one! The second one has risen!"
Although they were dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaobai's disturbing voice, everyone including the third brother thought that at this time, the first balloon that had floated too high should be abandoned.
However, Gu Ning was not affected by Zhang Xiaobai, he just focused on aiming, the muzzle of the gun moved slowly with the rising balloon, and then pulled the trigger—
boom! boom! Two gunshots sounded one after another, with an interval of no more than one second.
Then the popped balloon fell from the sky with the cardboard.
No one looked at the exploded balloon, and their eyes were focused on the second balloon again. At this time, the third balloon had already flown up, and the soldiers were about to release the fourth balloon.
The distance between the front and the back is less than one meter.
Everyone held their breath.
Gu Ning concentrated.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"—
Gunshots rang out one after another, accompanied by the bursting and falling of balloons. Except for the first balloon, none of the balloons rose more than ten meters, and the interval between each shot did not exceed two seconds.
This speed is considered fast even for normal target shooting, not to mention shooting such a difficult moving target, until the last balloon fell to the ground, the soldiers were still a little unable to react.
The soldier in charge of picking up the balloons picked up all ten balloons, and ran over from a distance under the pressure of more than 20 people with piercing eyes.
Then start checking one by one.
Every time a piece is counted, people are silent for a moment, one after another, some half of the cardboard is shot off, and some even the whole piece of cardboard is punched, leaving only the point where the hole is tied. All the bullets hit the bull's-eye, but compared to the soldiers who have gone through countless trainings, this is the first time Gu Ning has participated in such a project! Such a result was actually shot!
The soldiers were so shocked that they couldn't say a word. To be precise, they didn't know what to say to express their shock and disbelief.
After a long time, Zhang Xiaobai turned his eyes from the pile of burst balloons to look at Gu Ning, and said in shock: "Gu Ning, you are simply a god!"
Zhong Xu added: "True God."
Zou Ming said to the third brother with a bitter face: "Commander, why don't I continue to practice tomorrow, I feel that I have nothing to do here."
The soldiers of each company looked at the pile of burst balloons and yellow cardboard on the ground, and then at Gu Ning, with different expressions.
