Chapter 51

Everyone was stunned.

But Chu Nan seemed to want to slightly expand the level of shock from before.

So...

He raised his arm again, and the stone in his hand quickly whizzed out, and in the next second, it hit the bullseye of the target a hundred meters away with a "thud"!

The score announcer was shocked again but still professionally announced the score!

"Ten points!!!"

"Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!"

With a rhythmic series of three sounds, Chu Nan threw the remaining three stones one after another.

The score announcer in the distance reported the scores based on the marks left by the stones on the target. However, Chu Nan seemed to have saved him the trouble... because... the hard target was actually smashed by the stones.

Five stones, all of which hit the bullseye without missing!

Five... ten points each!!!

"Five... fifty points!!!"

"My God! How did he do that?!"

One of the girls was the first to react from her shock, and her exclamation woke everyone else up.

Of course, the most shocked among the group was the instructor, who looked like a bull. His eyes were full of surprise... Actually, he had seen such extraordinary people before. According to some rumors in the team, there was once a strange person who challenged their old squad leader in a shooting competition. The strange person used a slingshot and hit the bullseye every time, which was very impressive.

But...

This Chu Nan... was purely using his arm strength to throw stones... This guy is clearly a beast!

"Instructor, I told you... you should have bet on ten throws." Chu Nan shrugged helplessly, ignoring the astonished looks around him, and walked to the instructor, saying, "Instructor, you were a bit too hasty when you made that bet with me..."

Chu Nan noticed the instructor's embarrassment and didn't want to make things too awkward.

The instructor, however, was not to be deterred... He frowned fiercely!

"Fine! Ten throws it is! We each have five more chances! I don't believe you can hit the bullseye every time!" The instructor still harbored a glimmer of hope, guessing that Chu Nan must have had some luck, right???

That's the only explanation!

Reluctantly, Chu Nan had to accept the challenge.

This time, the instructor performed much better than before. Pressure brings improvement, and he scored forty-nine points with five shots!!

Including the previous score, the instructor had a total of ninety-one points, an exceptional performance!!

Seeing the instructor's competitive spirit, Chu Nan just smiled helplessly, picked up another stone, and focused on throwing it.

After four more throws—adding up to ninety points in total!!

At this point, the students began to worry for the instructor. Some who enjoyed the spectacle even started to point and comment, ready to see the instructor's downfall.

Actually, although everyone was shocked, they didn't think Chu Nan had any superpowers. After all, Chu Nan always appeared in simple attire at school, and everyone naturally assumed he was a rural kid who had grown up practicing stone-throwing skills, which seemed quite reasonable.

So, for the final throw, as long as Chu Nan scored even two points, it would be enough to outperform the instructor!

But...

Unexpectedly, Chu Nan focused and raised the last stone, then threw it with all his might!—Whoosh! The stone grazed the edge of the target and flew out!

He missed the target!!

Zero points!!

"Tsk tsk tsk... I missed, sigh, looks like I'm not good enough!" Chu Nan scratched his head regretfully and sighed, "Instructor, well... it seems stones are no match for firearms... Although I accidentally scored high before, the endurance and accuracy are hard to maintain... I lost, so please punish me, Instructor."

Chu Nan was very clear that if he had won, it would have been difficult to handle the situation. He had noticed that the instructor was competitive but upright, not a bad person, just a bit hot-tempered. There was no need to embarrass him. Looking at the students around him, Chu Nan regretted his momentary impulse, which had drawn so much attention, which was not in line with his low-key style.

The instructor was silent, staring at Chu Nan for a long time, then took a deep breath and nodded.

But Chu Nan could clearly see that the instructor's eyes were filled with genuine gratitude and respect!!

...

Today's military training was quite interesting. At least, Chu Nan, a low-key student, was remembered by many classmates. Clearly, Chu Nan had become somewhat famous. Challenging the instructor's authority and using stones against firearms, Chu Nan was truly a unique presence in the history of Jinghua University.

Many female students also gradually developed a strong interest in Chu Nan. In the past, such a laid-back and indifferent person like Chu Nan would hardly attract attention from girls, but this time, his unique charm actually won the favor of many girls.

Of course, Li Mengru was not included among these girls.

Li Mengru was planning a scheme to prank Chu Nan!

...

After the military training ended, Chu Nan was preparing to take a bus to the city center to buy a computer. —Because, Uncle Zhao had already paid him his first month's salary in advance, nearly ten thousand yuan! This was a substantial income for Chu Nan!

"Hey! Chu Nan!!"

Just as Chu Nan was about to board the bus, a voice called out from behind him.

Unfortunately, he only realized it after getting on the bus and turned around to see a guy who looked like a bull following him, grinning at Chu Nan with a big white smile.

"Hey? Instructor?—Why are you here?"

The instructor smiled and said, "Hehe, I came to thank you! Today, I really appreciate it!! If you hadn't let up at the end, I would have had no face to continue as an instructor. Chu Nan, I'm really sorry for how I treated you before."

Chu Nan hurriedly waved his hands, "Instructor, don't say that, my attitude was indeed not that of a qualified student participating in military training."

"Hehe, now we're outside of military training, so you don't have to call me Instructor. My name is Li Hu, I'm twenty-four years old, not much older than you."

Chu Nan was moved by the instructor's sincere smile. The two of them sat at the back of the bus and chatted happily.

"Oh, right, Chu Nan, where are you going?"

"To the city center, to buy a computer."

"Buy a computer?! Hey! You should have said that earlier, I'm familiar with that! Um... there's an electronics market in the city center, I'll go with you!"

"Really? That's great, thank you, Brother Li."

...

The bus continued to move from stop to stop.

And behind the bus, a low-key black car was following.

The guy in the driver's seat kept his eyes fixed on Chu Nan's back, who was sitting in the back of the bus, not letting up for a moment.
