Not long after, people from the base laboratory came over wearing full protective suits.
They carefully examined the pot of green plant, and used special tools to pick out the bullet-blasted seeds from its white stamens.
The leading technician said, "Who shot this? His marksmanship was quite accurate, and he hit the core of the relic directly with three shots."
Xia Chujian was about to say it was Lin Xiaoxiao, but unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoxiao whispered, "I fired the first shot, but it missed and hit the wall. The next three shots were fired by Xia Chujian. She was the one who killed the infected body."
Pei Zijing glanced at Xia Chujian.
The technician praised, "Student Xia Chujian's marksmanship is excellent. He immediately discovered the location of the relic core. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to kill it in one go."
Ji Nabi, who was standing behind Pei Zijing, looked at Xia Chujian suspiciously and said, "...were you trying to fight the infected body just now? Were you trying to kill me?"
Those three shots pierced the air, and the pressure that hit her face made Jinabi still unable to breathe.
The feeling that the space within ten meters around her was sucked into a vacuum by the pressure of the bullet was truly unforgettable for her.
Xia Chujian handed the gun back to Lin Xiaoxiao and replied to Ji Nabi calmly, "Think before you speak. I don't even know you, why would I kill you?"
Jinabi's face flushed red as she said that. She said angrily, "You clearly shot me in the face just now!"
"...But I hit the infected relic above your head." Xia Chujian said unhappily, "And I didn't shoot you once, but three times. If I really wanted to shoot you in the face, do you think you could dodge it?"
"Your shooting skills are so good?" Ji Nabi looked at Xia Chujian in disbelief. "How did you practice your shooting skills?"
Xia Chujian opened his mouth, but suddenly remembered the gossip he had heard from those people before. He changed his words instantly and said lightly, "Of course it's the marksmanship I've been practicing since I was a child."
"Since childhood? What's your background? I heard you're not a noble, how could you possibly afford to practice with a spear?"
Xia Chujian tilted her head and smiled, saying, "My family is not noble, but I am grateful to the Zong family for taking care of me..."
Because she remembered the gossip about these people, and she knew that these people only believed what they believed.
Give them content they can believe in.
At this moment, not only the students in the cafeteria, but even Pei Zijing suddenly realized it.
So that's how it is...
That makes sense.
Apart from Zong’s Military Industry, almost no one can afford such a large amount of bullets for practicing shooting.
When Ji Nabi heard that Xia Chujian's family was actually involved with the Zong family, her face immediately changed color.
She was very nervous and didn't dare to confront Xia Chujian again.
Xia Chujian noticed that she had stopped and sighed in her heart.
She was just using the big guns as a pretext. If the other party really wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, she planned to drag Zong Ruoan out to show off her power.
These people probably don't have the courage or the channels to ask Zong Ruoan for verification.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if she asks for verification. Xia Chujian has already thought about it. She will send a message to Meng Guanghui and ask him to find Zong Ruoan to help her cover up the lie.
Although Zong Ruoan has left the Special Security Bureau now, he must still be on good terms with his former colleagues like Meng Guanghui.
Therefore, Xia Chujian patted Lin Xiaoxiao's shoulder calmly and said, "Your fighter skills are so good, but your shooting skills are not so good. You should practice hard in the future."
Pei Zijing stood in the private room, looked back at her, and said to the laboratory technicians: "Pack up the relict infection and take it away. Report to the superiors that a new relict infection has appeared."
Xia Chujian was slightly startled and asked, "Instructor Pei, what is a new type of infected body?"
"We found that the relict species only infected humans and animals before, but this time, the relict species began to infect plants." Pei Zijing pointed to the pot of green plants.
Xia Chujian's eyes widened: "The relic has never infected plants before?"
"Not that I know of."
Pei Zijing watched as the laboratory technicians took away the green plants that had been infected with the relic species, and also took away the other two pots of green plants that had not mutated in the box.
Xia Chujian remembered the time at the beginning of the year when a big tree suddenly grew wildly in the garden of Mulan City Square.
There were no tentacles sticking out from the trunks of those big trees, so they should not have been infected by the core of the relic species.
But the sudden growth was somewhat similar to the green plant that was growing and blooming wildly just now.
But she didn't say anything, turned and walked towards where her roommate was, and said, "It's okay, let's go back."
She was the first to walk towards the cafeteria door.
The base guards guarding the door did not let him pass.
Only Pei Zijing followed out and raised his hand before Xia Chujian could walk out.
The three roommates also quickly followed out.
The four of them didn't speak on the way.
It wasn't until we returned to the dormitory that Mao Yonggui sighed and said, "I just met you. I think your temper is unchangeable. Fortunately, the infected body appeared today. Otherwise, both you and Lin Xiaoxiao would be in danger..."
They could all see that Lin Xiaoxiao fired the first shot because she was provoked by Ji Nabi.
As for Xia Chujian's last three shots, they were not sure whether she was going to hit Ji Nabi or she had changed her mind temporarily because of the appearance of the infected relic.
Chu Qingjuan patted Xia Chujian's shoulder without saying anything.
Sang Yadi, however, held Xia Chujian's hand and stammered, "Chu... Chujian, I... I... I know you've offended the noble lady, but... But I'm really happy that you... you... you can stand up... Your marksmanship is so accurate!"
Xia Chujian closed her eyes, nodded, and said, "Sister Sang, please stop praising me. I'm trying to change myself and not be so impulsive. However, there are always idiots who want to test my patience."
