The moving target consists of randomly thrown targets from various directions in the sky.
The range of Type 64 handgun is only fifty meters.
So you can only hit the target if it enters your firing range.
Daisy Zane and Kevin Clark stood side by side, with a distance of only one meter between them. But if the target appears from one of their directions, the other person would be at a disadvantage due to the distance.
Moreover, the targets appear randomly. If all seven targets appear from one person’s direction, the other person would be at a disadvantage in each instance.
However, for skilled shooters, these factors are not a problem.
What matters is not only accurate marksmanship, but also shooting speed, reaction speed, distance judgment, and timing of firing.
“Enamel, who do you think will win?” Allonzo Hobson asked Hugo Clark by his side.
“Third Uncle,” Hugo Clark answered without hesitation.
“Definitely my sister,” James Collins said.
Hugo Clark gave him a glance, assuming he was just supporting his sister for the sake of it, and did not argue with him.
“Let’s place bets,” Allonzo Hobson put his arm on James Collins’ shoulder and smiled, “I bet 1 million on Brook Sister’s victory.”
“You have good taste,” James Collins crossed his arms, “I also bet 1 million on my sister’s victory.”
Hugo Clark glanced at Allonzo Hobson and then looked at Michael Jackson and Juan Wright: “You two.”
Juan Wright smiled at Hugo Clark and said, “I bet 1 million on my teacher’s victory.”
Hugo Clark: ‘
Allonzo Hobson and James Collins both laughed.
Then everyone’s eyes fell on Michael Jackson.
Michael Jackson coughed lightly and touched his nose, saying, “1…1 abstain.”
Hugo Clark: ‘
Juan Wright gave him a light nudge with his elbow, “Can you do it or not?”
Michael Jackson deflected it with his hand and said with a smile, “I need to save money for my wife.”
“Brother,” Juan Wright patted him on the shoulder, “first of all, you need to have a wife.
Michael Jackson smiled but didn’t speak.
Allonzo Hobson looked at Hugo Clark again, “Enamel, last chance, who do you bet on?”
Hugo Clark met his gaze and said softly, “5 million on my Third Uncle.”
“Enamel, you better think it over,” Allonzo Hobson said, “My Brook Sister is really strong.”
Hugo Clark didn’t say anything.
Allonzo Hobson smiled and looked at Daisy Zane and Kevin Clark, saying leisurely, “Enamel, you really don’t know how strong my Brook Sister is.”
Every word of their conversation had fallen into Daisy Zane and Kevin Clark’s ears. Daisy Zane loaded her bullets and said, “Your nephew is not bad.”
“That’s why I won’t let him lose.”
Daisy Zane’s mouth turned up slightly, and she looked at the shooting range.
Both of them were ready, and as the word “start” was called out, Hugo Clark covered Charles Amos’s ears.
The first moving target came from Daisy Zane’s side, thrown high into the air and quickly dropping.
Both of their eyes were focused on the target, and at the moment it entered their firing range, they pulled their triggers simultaneously.
To the naked eye, the targets had been hit at the same time by both of them. As the second target appeared the moment they fired, both of them caught it in the corner of their eyes and turned their guns in that direction at the same time.
The next three targets came from Kevin Clark’s direction.
Kevin Clark was at an advantage due to his position, but Daisy Zane didn’t give him any chances to take advantage of it.
The last two targets were in front of both of them, making it simple.
The targets appeared quickly. Just as one gunshot ended, the next target would appear.
So, everyone’s ears could hear the consecutive “bangs” of six bullets. And with their eyes, they could see that these six targets were hit almost simultaneously by the two of them.
Several people: ‘ Are they even human? How can anyone compete with that?
The seventh target appeared, again from Kevin Clark’s direction. As his gun turned toward it, Daisy Zane put down her gun.
She quickly took a nearby bolt action rifle.
He pulled the bolt back, loaded the bullet, aimed, and pulled the trigger.
In almost a second…
With a “bang”, at a range of 400 meters, the target was shot right through.
Meanwhile, Kevin Clark was still waiting for the target to enter his handgun’s range…
Several people stared in amazement at the operation.
Kevin, startled for a moment, put down his handgun and turned his head towards Daisy Zane.
Daisy didn’t look at him, but pulled the bolt back, ejected a spent shell, and aimed at the stationary target in the distance.
“Bang–” She fired a shot, and hit dead center.
With a smile in the corner of her mouth, she pulled the bolt back again, ejected another shell, and said softly, “I never said you couldn’t change guns in the middle.”
She fired another shot as the words fell.
Kevin watched her for a while and then nodded, chuckling.
Firing two more shots, Daisy finished off her bullets and looked at Kevin, declaring, “War is deceit.”
Kevin nodded, “Mm, I’m willing to lose the bet.”
“It’s not like I’m bullying you; I didn’t even pick up the semi-automatic next to it.”
The bolt action loading was time-consuming. “Yes,” Kevin laughed, “I didn’t think about being flexible.”
Again, the few people behind him were speechless:
As long as Daisy was replaced with one of them, without considering whether they dared to play like this, in the end, Kevin would press their heads and make them admit defeat.
Indeed… people always have double standards.
“One request.” Kevin reached out and placed a strand of her hair blown forward back, saying, “Feel free to ask.”
“I’ll think about it,” Daisy said indifferently.
“Mm.”
Soon after, the few people behind him started shouting for Hugo Clark to pay up.
Of course, it was mostly Allonzo Hobson and James Collins who were the vocal ones.
Hugo was bothered by their clamor, as he had truly underestimated her skill. It was mainly because he couldn’t believe someone could match his Third Uncle’s amazing marksmanship.
He glanced down at Charles Amos, looking up at him, then said, “With the child here, you two have the nerve to shout for money.”
“What? Why? Do you want to renege on the deal!” cried Allonzo, “Hey! Kevin, keep an eye on your big nephew; he wants to renege on the deal.”
Kevin didn’t respond to him.
Hugo glanced at Kevin, and the look in his eyes clearly said, “You’ve betrayed my trust.”
But Kevin looked back at him, as if to say, “What’s it to you if I fail you?”
Being used to Kevin’s ruthlessness, Hugo didn’t show any reaction but said, “I’ll transfer the money to Charles.”
Charles’s eyes widened, and then he looked at Daisy. Seeing the look in her eyes, Charles said, “Brother, I don’t want it.”
“That’s fine,” Kevin said, “I’ll send you my bank account number later.”
Just as Daisy was about to speak up, Kevin pulled her back and whispered, “It’s okay, he has plenty of money. If you don’t take it, it’s a waste. You have to let Charles save some for my retirement fund too.” Daisy:
James Collins said, “I have no objections.”
“Neither do I,” Juan Wright agreed.
However, Allonzo squatted down next to Charles and said very seriously,
“Baby, remember, this money isn’t from your Brother Hugo. It’s from your Brother Juan Wright, Brother Xavier Dominic, Brother James Collins.”
“I’m Uncle,” James Collins reminded him.
Allonzo looked up at him, “How can you take advantage of me.”
“If I don’t have to give out red envelopes, I don’t mind having another nephew,” James Collins laughed.
“Get out of here!” Allonzo picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at James, “Go play somewhere else, kid.”
Charles cast another glance at Daisy, who didn’t intercede, and then looked at
Kevin. Then he said to Hugo, “Thank you, Cousin.”
Daisy:
Everyone paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
James Collins pulled at his braid, “Why do you acknowledge kinship when you see money? You little money-grubber..”
