《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 48: Competition at the Shooting Range
Advertisement
At the shooting range.
Qi Feng specifically chose an event that he was confident about. In the face of victory or defeat, he would not be modest at all.
Wu Mei skillfully dismantled the sniper rifle and adjusted the parameters. She looked at the target board that was a hundred meters away and asked, "How do we compete?"
Looks like the Special Agent Department is short of funds. The firearms used for training are so trashy!
She frowned at this.
"Ten shots!" Qi Feng was slightly nervous as he watched her skillful actions. "I'll go first!"
Wu Mei shrugged and watched as he crouched down and used the gravel to sense the change in the wind speed and natural surroundings. He squinted and pulled the trigger..
Bang bang bang! Ten consecutive shots were fired.
Wu Mei narrowed her eyes and roughly estimated his score.
He was a good seedling, but he was too arrogant and needed to be taught a lesson...
Someone ran to retrieve the target board and could not hide his excitement as he shouted, "98 points! Qi Feng is amazing! Sniper God!"
"It's not too late to admit defeat now." Qi Feng performed well. He looked at Wu Mei relaxedly, but he realized that she was not nervous at all.
Wu Mei didn't answer him. Nonchalantly, she picked up her sniper rifle and found a place to stand. She then raised her hand and fired without stopping!
The rookies were so shocked that their mouths fell open. They had never seen such casual shooting actions before...
Could it be that she gave up because she knew that she could not beat Qi Feng?
Wu Mei propped the sniper rifle on the sand and asked, "Has no one gone to retrieve the target board?"

Zhong Ling instantly understood and ran over. Waving the target board in her hands and shouted, "100 points!"
Sh*t! Qi Feng did not believe it. He snatched the board over, but he had to admit that Wu Mei's ability far exceeded his imagination.
The new cadets looked at Wu Mei with eyes that went from doubt to confusion. There were even a few who revealed looks of admiration. They had only heard rumors that there was a super special agent, M, who had the ability to "shoot wherever was pointed". She could instantly take someone's life from 100 meters away!
Could it be that Wu Mei was not someone who came in with connections but someone with true ability?!
"Disperse! What's the fuss about?"
When the instructor, Bai Xue, heard about the newbies gathering to compete, she rushed over. The moment she saw Wu Mei, her tone became sharp and bitter.
She snatched the two target boards over, tore them apart, and threw them into the air. She put on a look of reprimand, but every word was directed at Wu Mei as she said sarcastically, "Some socialites better not think that they can survive in the training camp just because they are good at shooting and riding horses. There are still many things to learn in the world of special agents!"
"They also can't rely on looks and figure! They better not think that they can rely on connections to get to the end!"
"Causing trouble the moment they arrive, no one in the training camp can protect them. Be careful!"
Bai Xue and Wu Mei looked at each other across the air and it was as if sparks were flying between them. The atmosphere between the two women was subtle.
The instructor is clearly hostile towards Wu Mei!

The rookies speculated.
Bai Xue looked at Wu Mei and thought to herself, "What right does she have to be able to break the tradition of the Special Agent Department and just come into the training camp out of the blue?"
After receiving the notice about the addition of Wu Mei, she had run to the leader's office and sternly refused to be a part of this. However, she had been reprimanded by the old leader!
Naturally, she blamed this on Wu Mei. Hence, she was especially mean to her.
"Yes, you're right, Instructor." Wu Mei handed the sniper rifle to Zhong Ling. She looked up at Bai Xue and smiled frivolously.
How is this admitting her mistake?
This is clearly a provocation, a deliberate act of defiance!
Bai Xue was furious. In front of everyone, she said bluntly, "The rules of the Special Agent Department have already been broken by the likes of you. You didn't have to pass the selection at all. The higher-ups simply informed us and you just squeezed your way in through connections! In the future, doesn't this mean that any Tom, Dick, and Harry can come in as well?!"
When the rookies heard what the instructor said, they began to discuss among themselves. They looked at Wu Mei with disdain!
Wu Mei crossed her arms and looked at Bai Xue with a faint smile. She said softly, "Huh, you probably don't have the right to say that, do you, Instructor Bai?"
"You seem to have come in through some sort of connection as well. Doesn't that mean that you're scolding yourself as well? That's not appropriate."
Wu Mei stared straight at Bai Xue, making her feel flustered. Her gaze gradually became evasive and uneasy.
Impossible! These are all old matters from many years ago! How can a mere rookie, a little brat, possibly know this?
Does she know someone in the Special Agent Department?
Bai Xue forced herself to calm down, but her tone sounded anxious as she said, "Nonsense! Do you have evidence? If you have evidence, then show it! Who said I came in through connections? Who is it?" She tried to force Wu Mei to spill the source of her information.
However, her behaviour made the new cadets feel even more suspicious.
In the two weeks that they had interacted with Instructor Bai, she had never spoken loudly. Why is she so agitated today...
Could Wu Mei be telling the truth?

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!
