Chapter 906: This Child Is Truly A Prodigy

The shooting range was made up of multiple lanes. Between two lanes, there was a piece of protective glass. Everyone could see each other but could not attack. This allowed people to enjoy watching others shoot and at the same time guaranteeing their safety.
Gu Shinian looked in excitement at the gun that the coach brought over. Then, he looked at Gu Jingze. “Father.”
Gu Jingze said, “Alright, Coach. Thank you. I’ll teach him.”
Of course, the coach did not dare to say otherwise. He quickly smiled and nodded. Then, he put the gun down and watched quietly from the side.
Gu Jingze nimbly assembled the pistol while explaining to Gu Shinian, “Start learning from something small like this. This small pistol is easy to aim. One thing though. The recoil is very strong. You must be careful. The recoil will affect the accuracy of your shooting. You might think that you aimed correctly, but in actual fact, the recoil will cause your aim to drift unpredictably when you shoot. Understand? I’ll show you once. Watch clearly.”
“Hn, hn.” At this moment, Gu Shinian really looked very obedient and sensible.
Lin Che was wearing protective glasses while watching from behind. She looked at the father-and-son pair in disbelief.
Just like that, they had already forgotten that she was beside them and were going to ignore her.
However, as she looked at the two of them in their shooting attire, Gu Shinian looked the part despite his small stature. It was even more so for Gu Jingze. It was rare for him to wear a uniform. He really looked clean-cut and handsome. People would be stunned upon looking at him.
Lin Che did not leave. She was delighted just standing here and looking at the adult and the child.
Around them, the girls who had accompanied the men here had noticed Gu Jingze a long time ago. They saw that he looked dashing in the protective eyewear. It covered half of his face and accentuated the defined contours of his face. As for his gaze, it seemed even colder behind the faintly brown lenses and was so calm that it made people gasp in awe.
He looked way too charismatic. How could they resist looking at him?
The dark green uniform made him look very somber. He held the gun up with one hand and extended his arm. He aimed at the target in front of him without blinking his eyes at all. His gaze was so sharp that his eyes seemed like those of a cheetah. He narrowed his eyes and they flashed slightly when he took a clean shot.
Bang, bang. Every shot he took hit the target.
Beside him, the coach applauded him. “You’re really as amazing as you have always been.”
The corners of his lips turned up slightly. He turned to look at Lin Che. When he saw her smitten smile, he smiled even wider. Then, he bowed his head and said to Gu Shinian, “You’re still young and you don’t have much strength either. You definitely can’t withstand the recoil. Hold the handle of the gun with both hands, like this.” He switched hands and held the gun with both his hands. He lifted the gun to his chest level and took a shot, his movements so fluid that people gasped in admiration.
After hitting the target a couple more times, Gu Jingze placed the gun down on the small table beside him. He then changed the magazine of the gun in a practiced manner.
Gu Shinian was very amazed as well. Although it did not show on his face, the excitement in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
Gu Jingze said, “Give it a try.”
Gu Shinian said, “Hn. Okay.”
The coach smiled behind them, thinking that the child would definitely not be able to do it after such a simple demonstration.
In any case, however, he could not have brought such a small child here to teach him how to shoot. He must have brought him here just to have some fun.
Gu Shinian looked at the target in front of him before looking down at the gun. He picked it up and bowed his head to examine it first. The coach quickly watched him carefully from the side to prevent him from accidentally misfiring the gun. He was standing at the side precisely to avoid such incidents.
However, Gu Shinian merely looked at the gun with his head down. He did not make any other move.
His heart was in his throat, but nothing happened in the end. Gu Shinian merely held the gun up calmly.
The people outside could not help but look at him. They looked at this small child holding a gun as if they were mocking him.
They felt that it was totally a waste of money, a waste of the venue, and a waste of bullets for such a young child to try shooting.
However, Gu Shinian seemed not to notice anyone at all. He only had eyes for the target in front of him. He aimed the gun outside and held it tightly with both hands. He heard Gu Jingze’s guidance from beside him. “Don’t hold it so tight. Remember what I told you.”
“Alright, Father,” Gu Shinian responded.
Thereafter, mimicking Gu Jingze’s posture, he finally pulled the trigger with his hands.
A bang reverberated.
He looked the part. His movements were the same as his father’s and he mimicked them perfectly. His ability to emulate was really very strong.
However, it was a pity that the bullet strayed a little.
The screen in front indicated that the bullet had not hit the target.
Even so, the sight had already stunned everyone. They could not believe that such a small child could shoot in a manner that did not pale in comparison to these adults. Furthermore, his movements seemed to look even more professional than theirs.
This child was way too intelligent.
Beside him, Gu Jingze said calmly, “Get used to it. Control your strength and continue shooting.”
Gu Shinian took another shot after hearing this. This time, he hit the target with a bang!
Although his shot was still slightly off target at the edge, it was a great improvement from his earlier attempt.
Initially, they even thought that he had gotten lucky. However, Gu Shinian proceeded to shoot consecutively. Each shot was more accurate than the previous one. Even though he did not manage to hit the center of the target, it was enough to make people gasp in awe.
Such a young child…
Everyone’s initial expressions of derision immediately turned into expressions of admiration. They could not help but look at the family of three. As all of them were in uniform, people could not tell who was who. They could only tell that none of the three looked ordinary. Each and every one of them seemed so outstanding. They would definitely command a lot of attention together.
On the contrary, Gu Shinian was slightly disappointed. He looked up and said, “I didn’t even hit the bullseye once.”
Gu Jingze said, “You’ll be able to do that next time. Because you don’t have enough strength, it’s natural that you can’t control the recoil properly.”
Gu Shinian said, “I guess…”
In the beginning, Lin Che had thought that it would be very difficult. But when she saw that Gu Shinian had learned it in such a short time, she could not help but think that shooting did not seem so difficult after all.
Gu Jingze said, “You’ve already done very well.”
Lin Che said from behind, “So you must eat more so that you can have more strength. Eat more when we get home.”
Gu Shinian turned around with his lips pursed.
Lin Che said, “Looks like shooting isn’t that difficult either.”
Gu Jingze raised his eyebrows. “Why? Do you want to give it a try too?”
Lin Che asked, “Can I?”
Gu Jingze gestured for her to go over.
Lin Che walked towards him eagerly.
Beside them, the coach smiled. He felt that their child was truly a prodigy. As for the wife…
She did not look that intelligent.
Gu Jingze said, “Come give it a try too. Follow what I taught Niannian earlier.”
Lin Che said, “Ah… I wasn’t paying much attention just now.”
Gu Jingze said in disbelief, “Alright. I’ll explain it to you again.”
He repeated everything again. This time, Lin Che listened in earnest. After listening, she did not think it was difficult either.
Even a mere child could hit the target. She did not believe that she would not be able to do it.
Gu Jingze smiled and did not burst her bubble. He let her try it on her own.
Lin Che held up the gun. At first, she held it with one hand.
Gu Jingze said, “Both hands.”
Lin Che turned around. “Isn’t that for kids?”
