Chapter 67: Gunslinging Like a God
When Zhou Yi was in the provincial police high school, his shooting performance was only average. Later in his criminal police career, he gradually honed his shooting ability.
But I can only say that it is not bad, at least it is at an above-average level, and no one has ever called me a sharpshooter.
There are two key factors in the police shooting.
The first is technique, which refers to the key points of shooting accuracy, balance, and judgment. These can be continuously improved through training, but if you want to stand out, it still depends on talent.
The second is the mentality, because unlike shooting athletes, the targets that police shoot at are basically people.
Whether it is deterrence, threat, restriction of action, or direct killing, especially the last one, requires extremely strong psychological stress resistance and quick judgment of the situation.
Mentality can only be honed. Zhou Yi still remembers the trembling feeling he felt after he shot and killed a gangster for the first time.
And Chen Yan is obviously someone with extremely high technical talent.
When he picked up the gun, his whole demeanor changed instantly.
Almost like two different people.
There was an imposing aura emanating from his entire body.
"Bang bang bang bang bang -"
Chen Yan fired five shots in a row, then hung up, turned off the safety, and ejected the magazine.
The whole set of operations was smooth and seamless, and very smooth.
And only then did Zhou Yi discover that Chen Yan had only loaded five bullets.
The magazine capacity of the Type 64 is seven bullets, but experienced police officers usually only load five bullets to prolong the life of the gun.
Could it be that Chen Yan even knows this kind of experience?
After the shooting was completed, the old policeman in charge of the guns pressed the slide button, and the target in the distance moved over.
Zhou Yi looked carefully and saw that one shot hit ten rings, two shots hit nine rings, and one shot hit eight rings.
This precision is absolutely amazing.
The old policeman took the target off, looked at it in confusion and said, "Didn't I fire five shots? Why are there only four holes?"
Yes, Zhou Yi remembered that there were also five gunshots.
Chen Yan was bending over to pick up the bullet casings on the ground and didn't say anything.
Zhou Yi leaned over to look at the target and saw that there were some slight signs of extra gaps at the position of the ten-ring gun.
"Oh my god, it's actually Double Tap." Zhou Yi exclaimed.
Ten rings, double combo.
This result would be a famous scene even if it were played on the field.
Unexpectedly, the old policeman laughed, nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's about right, normal level."
Zhou Yi was shocked. Is this just normal?
Chen Yan put the shell casings he had picked up into the recycling box and said with a shy smile, "It was a lucky move."
The old policeman said, "Xiao Chen, show me that again. I always like to see you do that trick."
"No, no, no, it's a waste of bullets." Chen Yan waved his hands repeatedly.
"It's okay. The bullets you were given for training are all nearing their expiration dates. Even if they're not used now, they'll have to be destroyed in a centralized manner after their expiration dates."
This is true. Bullets all have a shelf life, especially unsealed ammunition. After contact with the air, the gunpowder in the bullet may become damp, so the shelf life will be greatly shortened.
Bullets that have exceeded their shelf life will be affected in terms of ammunition performance, which may cause safety accidents such as misfires, jams, and explosions.
So just like the old policeman said, those that expire will be counted and destroyed.
The old policeman pointed at Zhou Yi and said, "The newcomers from your Third Brigade are here. Why don't you set an example for them?"
Zhou Yi was confused by the old policeman's words. What other special skills does Chen Yan have?
Chen Yan said shyly, "Okay, I'll try."
"Wait a moment." The old policeman said, took out three new target papers, ran into the shooting range, and hung them on three targets respectively.
Then he took out a marker and drew a coin-sized circle in almost the same position on the three targets.
The old policeman took a closer look, confirmed that the positions were consistent, made an OK gesture, and ran out.
"Xiao Chen, get ready."
Chen Yan nodded, walked to the shooting range, loaded the bullet, chambered it, and took aim.
"Let's start." The old policeman said, pressing three buttons on the side in succession.
The three targets are on three different tracks and start moving back and forth when the button is pressed.
Zhou Yi finally understood what was going on. Was he planning to shoot two people in the moving target with one shot?
This is much more difficult than before. Static targets and dynamic targets are not the same thing, and you want to penetrate both.
Chen Yan's posture was very standard. He held his breath and concentrated, observing the movement of the three targets.
Seeing that he was so focused, Zhou Yi didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that it would affect his performance.
With extreme concentration, Chen Yan seemed to feel that the three targets were gradually slowing down.
He seized the most critical moment and pulled the trigger.
"Bang--"
Only one shot was fired.
Finish.
Chen Yan put away his gun, locked the trigger, turned off the safety, and unloaded the magazine.
The old policeman immediately stopped the slide, opened the safety door and ran in.
Chen Yanze, like a hygienic student, picked up the shell casings on the ground.
"Oh my god!" an old policeman exclaimed in the distance.
He took off three target papers and walked towards the two of them with excitement on his face.
Zhou Yi was suddenly extremely curious. Did he really hit it?
The old policeman put the target paper on the ground and said excitedly, "Xiao Chen, I've been playing with guns for more than 30 years, and you're the best I've ever seen."
Zhou Yi and Chen Yan leaned over to take a look. On the first target paper, the bullet passed perfectly through the circle drawn by the marker.
On the second target paper, the bullet hole passed through the edge of the Mark pen mark.
Zhou Yi was shocked. It was really a double penetration.
Dynamic shooting, one shot penetrates two targets at once, amazing!
Zhou Yi took a look and found that Chen Yan did not show any surprise. It seemed that he had enough confidence in such a result.
Then, the third target paper was taken away. When Zhou Yi saw the third target paper, his jaw almost dropped.
The third target paper was the same as the first one, with the bullet hole perfectly passing through the circle mark.
"Brother Yan..." Zhou Yi was about to praise him, but when he looked up, he saw that Chen Yan himself was also shocked.
"Zhou...Zhou Yi, am I dazzled?"
The old policeman laughed heartily and said, "This is the first time in history that a three-pointer has been shot through the air. Xiao Chen, you are truly the sharpshooter of our Hongcheng!"
"No, I can't be the only one to know about this exciting thing. I have to tell everyone."
Seeing the old policeman running out excitedly, Chen Yan quickly asked, "What about the gun and bullets?"
"There's someone in the armory. Just sign and return it." After saying that, the old policeman disappeared.
Chen Yan shook his head helplessly and smiled. When he turned around, he saw Zhou Yi giving him a thumbs up.
“Brother Yan, you are this!”
With Chen Yan's academic qualifications and marksmanship, he would be a top talent that people would be vying for, not only in Hongcheng but even in the provincial capital.
If I didn't have the experience and information from my previous life, and was just a peer, I would have been crushed into pieces in seconds.
But Zhou Yi was not jealous, but regretful and unwilling. Such an outstanding person actually died at the hands of a vicious gangster. It was really a pity that such a talented person was killed by God.
One more year!
No, to be precise, it was still ten months before Huang Jinbao committed his first murder.
Zhou Yi still has a lot to do.
He believed that this was his mission of rebirth.
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Brother Yan, I believe that a police officer like you who is both capable and kind will be safe and live a long life."
