Chapter 418: Changes in the Zhengming Brigade
Sniper competition venue.
At the end of the competition, Zhang Zhongzhen leaned against the wall and did not rush to the target to check his shooting results like other participants.
As a commando who also incorporates shooting behind glass into his daily training, Zhang Zhongzhen has no shortage of practical exercises. He is bound to win today's third round of the sniper competition.
But what made him hesitate was that Chen Shu, who was sitting across from him at a shooting position, did not even give him any time to wait for the target reporter to report his results after the shooting. He checked the Type 88 gun and left, as if it was a result of a competition. Good or bad is not in his mind.
"Zhong Zhen! Well done! Hit the nose right, haha! Definitely the winner!"
Wei Hengyuan ignored the restraint that came with his status as a captain. After Zhang Zhongzhen finished shooting, he ran to the target position without waiting for the target announcer.
Wei Hengyuan trotted up to Zhang Zhongzhen and patted him hard on the shoulder.
Zhang Zhongzhen, who was in pain from being photographed, glanced at Wei Hengyuan and felt that the captain suddenly became cheerful and was no longer as heavy as before. He then turned his gaze to the back of Chen Shu who had left.
"Chen Shu? I thought he was so awesome. Haha, he still lacks temperament under pressure." Wei Hengyuan sneered.
"Oh?" Zhang Zhongzhen narrowed his eyes and asked casually, "Where did he hit?"
"Where? Haha, he missed the target!"
Zhang Zhongzhen's pupils contracted slightly. He was shocked by the sudden news. He leaned forward slightly and asked: "Missed the target? Even if the glass deviates the trajectory of the bullet, it is impossible for an experienced sniper to miss the target." Missed!"
Judging from the previous competition in which they took the top two spots in the first and second rounds of the sniper competition, Zhang Zhongzhen concluded that Chen Shu's performance could not fluctuate so much.
"Hey, after I saw your results, I went to his target to take a look. I didn't believe it at first, but I looked at it for a long time and didn't see any bullet holes on the target! It must have missed the target!"
Wei Hengyuan, who was talking enthusiastically, suddenly saw Zhang Zhongzhen stiffen suddenly, his eyes slowly widening, staring at the temporary resting place of the Zhengming Special Police Brigade in the distance, with an expression of disbelief.
He rarely loses his composure like this. What on earth was going through his mind?
Out of curiosity, Wei Hengyuan went out and looked side by side with Zhang Zhongzhen in the direction of the Zhengming Brigade.
"Wei Da." Zhang Zhongzhen's bitter voice sounded, "Chen Shu deliberately gave up winning the sniper competition."
"Give up? Why give up? Let's not mention that this victory can add five points to their team. How can he give up the honor of being the best sniper?" Wei Hengyuan asked with an incomprehensible and unbelievable expectation.
"Firstly, he gave up the victory in the sniper competition to exclude me from the final team assault; secondly, he prepared to personally lead the team to participate in the next team event, and then surpassed us in one fell swoop with ten points from the team victory."
Zhang Zhongzhen's tone was very determined.
"You mean Chen Shu gave up his personal honor and then waited for an opportunity to compete with us for first place in the overall score?" Wei Hengyuan understood the meaning of Zhang Zhongzhen's words.
This situation cannot be described by the phrase "talented by nature". Wei Hengyuan thought about it and finally could only admit that Chen Shu did put the honor of the team before personal gains and losses.
And this, compared to all the things Wei Hengyuan did before that were only for himself, people can't help but feel a little guilty.
Suddenly, Wei Hengyuan's face darkened.
Zhang Zhongzhen is very smart and good at observing people's emotions. After all, the man standing in front of him is also his direct superior. Privately, he regards Chen Shu as a competitor and he is unwilling to admit defeat from the bottom of his heart.
Everything suddenly became clear. Chen Shu deliberately missed the target in the third round just to participate in the final team event.
And this price is the title of "Sniper King".
"Wei Da, don't worry. Even if Chen Shu leads the team to participate, it won't have much impact on the final result. After all, he is just an ordinary policeman from the police station. Even if I am not around for this kind of assault project, our top soldiers only need to perform their usual duties. With a normal level of training, it’s easy to beat their improvised appearance.”
For the commando teams directly under the detachment, they regard members of other district and county brigades as street patrols, which is their usual pride.
Zhang Zhongzhen no longer stayed long, said goodbye and left, heading to the commando team's temporary resting place.
"I really didn't expect him to be able to do this." Wei Hengyuan raised his back slightly and looked at Chen Shu, who was standing in the sun not far away and surrounded by members of the Zhengming Special Police Brigade, and sighed inwardly.
Simulate a residential building and hostage rescue team project assessment site.
Zhang Zhongzhen, who was standing not far away, snorted coldly: "I know that the investigation and training group can't think of any new projects, which is to simulate the hostage rescue of kidnapping cases similar to previous years."
Wei Hengyuan punched the palm of his hand and laughed: "We practice this kind of drill every now and then. I believe that even if you are not there, the top soldiers will not let us down."
Zhang Zhongzhen said leisurely: "Haha, it's almost certain."
Wei Hengyuan turned to look at Li Da, the captain of the Zhengming Brigade, who was sitting diagonally across the audience stage. Seeing the calm look on his face, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Temporary resting point for the Zhengming Brigade, the audience stand.
Zou Qing trotted into the resting spot and shouted excitedly: "Li Da, what a happy event."
Li Da, who was sitting upright and looking at the Zhengming team members under the residential building, came back to his senses and asked, "What is it?"
"Zhang Zhongzhen didn't go to the participating team. He is sitting there now." Zou Qing pointed to the rest area of the first team across the street excitedly.
"Li Da, they didn't even send the captain to this kind of team project. They look down on us too much. Hehe, if they lose to us in the team project, wait, I will calculate the score."
Looking at Zou Qing's flushed little face, seriously counting the scores of the two teams with her fingers, Li Da was stunned.
According to the rules of the competition, this was expected, but he didn't expect that Zou Qing, a clerk who worked from nine to five, would be so concerned about the team competition. This sense of team honor of actively participating is really rare.
Perhaps since Chen Shu came, Zhengming Team has also slowly changed. Xu Mingliang, who had been lying down since he was transferred from the detachment to the brigade, actively prepared for the competition and won the traditional bomb disposal project; Pu Shu, a rich second-generation who runs a four-star hotel at home and came to the special police brigade to experience life, also stayed in the team for two months of closed training this time, and the result was amazing. He was the only special police officer who won a single event as an auxiliary police in this competition; Zhang Qing, a social recruited policeman who regretted his past and always complained that the salary of police officers was not as good as that of IT in the provincial capital, usually wore a pair of glasses and smelled like a code farmer, but was discovered by Chen Shu to contribute to the brigade in the drone project and scored two points. Zhang Qing never mentioned the big factory at that time because he was valued, scored points for the brigade, and was respected by his colleagues.
The same team and the same team members have indeed changed a lot after Chen Shu came.
Li Da's pupils moved slightly, and he came out of his deep thoughts. He seemed to be talking to Zou Qing, as if muttering to himself: "I remember that we have always been the last one. Zhang Zhongzhen is not as good as him. I was not as good as him back then."
Zou Qing, who was standing in the stands, saw Chen Shu leading the team to the competition venue in the distance. She smiled sweetly on her oval face, pointed at that place with her green jade finger, and said excitedly while jumping on her feet:
"Captain Chen is on the stage! No, we are on the stage!"
