Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

The second day of the shooting competition

Yu Qi woke up and saw Aoi was waiting for her to wake up. Because of this competition, she decided to stop her morning routine and got ready for the second day. When she arrived at their tent and saw everyone were here already.

”Morning, Yu Qi.” Her club members gave her a morning greeting.

”Morning.” Yu Qi nodded.

”Are you ready?” Shi Man Xie asked.

”Yes.” Yu Qi once again nodded.

”Then, let’s go now.” Shi Man Xie turned to Yu Qi, Qin Nie Sen, and Zu Wei Han.

The first category that is held for the second day of the shooting competition began with 10m Air Rifle (Men/ Women). The rules for this category was the participant had to fire twenty shots at a distance of 10m. What made this category different than others is the equipment that they used.

The bullet that they used was ’match diabolo pellets’. These pellets have wadcutter heads, meaning the front is (nearly) flat, which leaves clean round holes in paper targets for easy scoring. Match pellets are offered in tins and more elaborate packagings that avoid deformation and other damage that could impair their uniformity.

Four of them were standing in a row. The three men of her club members were looking at each other. They needed to complete this with an excellent result so that they would not feel embarrassed when compared to Yu Qi who standing next to them.

The competition started. Yu Qi lifted her air rifle and took an aim and fired. She took only 5 to 10 seconds to re-aim. The sound of fired bullets could be heard across the shooting ground. The participants continued to shot. The one who finished first was Yu Qi.

Yu Qi put down the air rifle and took off the gear equipment that she wore before the competition started. Then she looked at her club members. They did not finish yet. Yu Qi left the place and go to her university booth.

”Yu Qi, are you shooting machine?”

She heard a club member asked her. She only smiled faintly.

”My daughter is awesome.” Vice captain Jung Xi Wan gave a thumb up to Yu Qi.

They were talking among them. Then someone called Yu Qi.

”Yu Qi, a girl said she wants to meet you.”

Yu Qi wondered who wanted to meet her right. When she saw that person, a smile appeared on her lips.

”Yue.” Yu Qi said her name.

”I have come. I saw your shot earlier. You are same as Brother Hui. A monster.” Feng Yue said after meeting Yu Qi’s eyes.

Yu Qi’s lips were itching. She did not know how to take that the last sentence.

”I bet if he heard you saying something like this, you are going to get punished.” Yu Qi’s turn to attack Feng Yue

”I already get punished by him.” Feng Yue did not take that to heart.

”Well, what if he doubles that punishment?” Yu Qi smirked.

”No... I will die.” Feng Yue’s expression turned.

”Well, ...” Yu Qi was holding her laugh.

”Don’t you dare tell him, Yu Qi...”

Yu Qi laughed when seeing Feng Yue frighted out. She could imagine Feng Yue got her punishment. Knowing Long Hui, that punishment was not light.

”Oh, Yu Qi, did you saw my grandfather?” Feng Yue asked out of nowhere.

”I did see him yesterday at the opening ceremony. That’s all.”

”Oh, I see. Well, I want to tell you that my grandfather invites you for dinner tonight.”

Yu Qi was stunned. Why did the General Long Fei Yi want to meet with her? Then she frowned.

”Don’t worry. My grandfather maybe wants to meet my friend. You know I did not have many friends.” Feng Yue calmed Yu Qi.

”Okay. Where?”

”I will go to your room later. Eight o’clock sharp we have to be at the female gate. One minute late...” Feng Yue made a gesture that showed her hand chopped her neck.

”Okay.”

”Do you still have the competition to go?” Feng Yue asked.

”Yes. One more category. My favorite.” Yu Qi showed her eagerness on that category.

”About what?”

” Disassembling and assembling the gun.”

”What? You meant you will open the gun pieces by pieces and put that pieces back and formed the gun?” Feng Yue wanted to double confirm it.

”Yes.”

”You are really same as my Brother Hui. I remembered when he entered this competition for the first time. I was standing beside my grandfather Long. My grandfather asked him which one category that he thinks his favorite. He with his excited eyes stated that this category was his favorite. That why you are very compatible with each other.” Feng Yue sneered to Yu Qi.

***SOME OF THE SHOOTING GAMES WERE BASED ON THE OLYMPICS GAMES. I READ IN THE WIKIPEDIA ABOUT THAT. AND I DID ADJUST SOME OF THE EXPLANATION. SO, SOME OF THEM MIGHT BE THE SAME OR HAVE SOME DIFFERENCE.
