Lin Chen looked at Wang Rui, who seemed to be in a slightly emotional state.
However, if he were truly skilled and sent by higher-ups to teach gunmanship, Lin Chen could completely understand his emotions.
Those with poor talent might still be struggling with gun techniques even after half a year of learning.
Who would willingly waste so much of their time?
"Uncle Wang, my daddy knows how to shoot guns," Lin Xiaoqian said in her childish voice, looking at Wang Rui.
Wang Rui looked at Lin Xiaoqian, his gaze softening instantly. "Little darling, what's your name? Has your daddy practiced shooting here before?"
Lin Xiaoqian: "Daddy took me to the amusement park, and there's shooting there. Daddy is very good at it."
Wang Rui: "…"
That shooting at the amusement park doesn't really count.
He looked at Lin Chen and said, "Mr. Lin, you'll mainly be practicing with handguns, but the leaders said that if you're interested in other firearms, you should familiarize yourself with them a little."
"Okay, thank you for your trouble," Lin Chen said.
Wang Rui's expression eased a bit. At least Lin Chen's attitude was good, and Lin Chen's daughter was very cute.
"Mr. Lin, please get in the car. We'll go to the shooting range."
Before long, Lin Chen and his daughter arrived at the shooting area. Wang Rui opened the trunk of the car and first took out a handgun and a box of handgun ammunition.
"Mr. Lin, please put these earmuffs on Qianqian. The sound will be quite loud, and we don't want to scare her."
Wang Rui handed Lin Chen a pair of earmuffs.
Lin Chen put them on Lin Xiaoqian. Lin Xiaoqian said, "Uncle Wang, doesn't Daddy have any? Will Daddy get scared?"
Wang Rui squatted down and said, "Qianqian, your daddy doesn't need them. Your daddy is a grown-up, and he has to get used to it. That way, he won't be scared when he shoots guns in the future."
"Okay," Lin Xiaoqian nodded.
Wang Rui stood up and looked at Lin Chen. "Mr. Lin, your daughter is very cute. My daughter is about the same age as yours, but unfortunately, I don't have much time to spend with her."
"The leaders said that your gun skills need to be very good to avoid hurting yourself or harming innocent people."
"Although you have some shooting… basic skills, I think you'll still need at least a month of practice."
When he mentioned 'shooting basic skills,' his lips twitched. The basic skills from the amusement park were completely useless here.
"Instructor Wang, I've also practiced at shooting ranges abroad," Lin Chen said.
Wang Rui nodded. "That's for the best. I'll demonstrate first, and then you can shoot a few rounds so I can see."
"As a beginner, never shoot with one hand. Use both hands to hold the gun, this—"
Wang Rui explained carefully.
Although he had some minor grievances, he was a soldier and strictly obeyed orders from above.
"Bang, bang, bang—"
After explaining, Wang Rui started shooting.
He was shooting at a standard 25-meter chest target, firing five shots in a row, all of which accurately hit the target.
"Mr. Lin, ordinary people may have misunderstandings about handguns. Hitting the target at this distance isn't easy."
"The requirement for you is, regardless of the score, to fire five consecutive shots and hit the target with all of them. If you can do that, you'll pass this stage of the assessment."
"After that, there will be one-handed shooting, shooting at moving targets, and so on," Wang Rui said.
Lin Chen nodded, then looked at Lin Xiaoqian. "Qianqian, were you scared by the gunshots?"
"Daddy, I wasn't."
"I'm very brave," Lin Xiaoqian said loudly.
Lin Chen patted Lin Xiaoqian's little head. Wang Rui handed the gun to Lin Chen. "Aim at the target and then release the safety."
He shielded Lin Xiaoqian behind him.
Some beginners might accidentally cause injury when they get a gun.
"Bang, bang, bang—"
Lin Chen fired quickly. He also fired five bullets, and the score he achieved was even higher than Wang Rui's.
After Lin Chen finished shooting, Wang Rui looked at Lin Chen in surprise. "Mr. Lin, you've done more than just simple practice! Your level is that of a sharpshooter in the military!"
He wasn't at all upset about being outdone by Lin Chen. The faster Lin Chen passed, the faster he could move on to other things.
"I've fired a lot of bullets at shooting ranges abroad," Lin Chen said with a smile.
Wang Rui nodded. "It's great that you have this foundation. The standard the leaders set for you to pass is a bit high. I originally thought that if you didn't come frequently, you might have to practice for three to five months."
Lin Xiaoqian giggled and said, "Uncle Wang, I told you, my daddy is very, very good!"
"Yes… your dad is indeed very good," Wang Rui said. "Lin Chen, why don't you try shooting with one hand? In real combat, it might not be convenient to aim with both hands."
"Okay," Lin Chen nodded.
He held the gun with one hand and fired five more bullets. With his strength and his gun skills, his shooting was as steady as an old dog. He scored fifty points with these five shots!
Wang Rui scored forty-eight points.
Lin Chen was unfamiliar with the gun at first, scoring forty-nine points when shooting with both hands, but now he scored fifty points.
Wang Rui couldn't believe it.
Handguns are far less accurate than rifles. Hitting the target at twenty-five meters is good enough, but Lin Chen actually hit the bullseye with every shot.
"Lin, you're awesome," Wang Rui gave him a thumbs up.
He could only occasionally score fifty points with one hand.
Soon, Wang Rui arranged for Lin Chen to try moving targets. Practicing this was to avoid hurting innocent people in the future.
"Lin, congratulations, congratulations, you passed!"
Wang Rui said happily. "The leaders above don't know you well enough. Your gun skills don't need me to teach you at all! I think your gun skills are good enough to teach me."
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Your gun skills are also very good, Wang Rui. Since we're here, I'd like to try all kinds of firearms."
"Sure, Lin, feel free," Wang Rui said readily.
Lin Chen squatted down and started teaching Lin Xiaoqian. His gun skills were now at the grandmaster level, very powerful, but not even at the great grandmaster level yet. Lin Chen felt it wasn't enough.
Wang Rui watched from the side, feeling a bit bewildered.
The instructor had become Lin Chen, and Lin Chen was teaching his own daughter, Lin Xiaoqian, who looked to be only three years old.
"Lin, Qianqian is too young."
"Even if you teach her, she won't be able to learn it," Wang Rui couldn't help but say after Lin Chen had been teaching for a while.
Lin Chen: "She needs to know how terrifying guns are. I can't always lock the gun in a safe. The chances of her touching it are low, but we still have to be careful."
"That's true," Wang Rui nodded.
Time passed by, and Lin Chen taught Lin Xiaoqian, handguns, rifles, submachine guns, sniper rifles, etc., explaining each one in detail.
His shooting experience continued to increase.
Although he could also gain experience at the amusement park, it wasn't as good as being at a real shooting range. When teaching Lin Xiaoqian, he could occasionally shoot a few rounds himself.
"Goodness, this level is even better than a soldier king," Wang Rui muttered to himself.
Gradually, the sun set in the west. Lin Chen and his daughter had been there for two or three hours, and his shooting experience had increased a lot.
"Wang Rui, we'll come back to learn tomorrow," Lin Chen said with a smile.
Wang Rui: "…"
"Lin, you don't need to learn anymore! Do you just think it's fun here and want to play more?"
Lin Chen: "Why are you speaking such obvious truths?"
Wang Rui said, "Lin, come whenever you want. I was originally prepared for you to learn for several months."
"Qianqian, Uncle Wang will prepare a gift for you tomorrow."
