Chapter 51 - Entering the Military Camp (2/2)

Ye Jian, who had been keeping her head low, raised her head abruptly. Her heart was beating at a rhythm similar to those gunshots. It seemed like something had awakened from deep inside her and was about to break free.

“It’s gunshots. The soldiers are conducting shooting practice,” said Grandpa Gen. He motioned for the soldiers to leave and turned sideways to look at Ye Jian, smiling. “I will show you the shooting range next time. Today, I’m going to take you to another place.”

But their destination for today was in the same direction as the shooting range. They didn’t stop walking until they arrived before a room guarded by soldiers. It was the firearms room where the soldiers with ordinary-level clearance could access only twice a week.

PRECISE AND PROFESSIONAL, WITH PROFOUND COMPREHENSION.

The slogan was hung in front of the firearms room. Every soldier could read it as they entered and exited the room.

The moment Ye Jian walked into the room, her eyes lit up as if there were flames in her pitch-black pupils.

Ordinary people would have been frightened if they saw rows of black pistols glistening with cold and metallic incandescence in front of them.

As for Ye Jian, all she knew was that a desire was burning in her blood! It was a desire to become stronger. She was longing to touch them urgently!

She turned around and looked at Grandpa Gen behind her. With a bit of an excited quiver in her clear voice, she asked, “Grandpa, can… can I touch them?”

A voice was shouting in her head, telling her to reach out her hand to pick up one of those guns glowing with chill light!

She wanted to hold it. She wondered what kind of sensation it would be like when a bullet was fired from the gun!
