Chapter 645
The male students standing around the female students smiled when they heard them. “If you’re afraid, you can let me go first.” Shooting was the most interesting training. Why were the girls so afraid of it?
“Why are you afraid? What is there to be afraid of? It’s rare that we get a chance to feel a real gun.”
The male students couldn’t understand the young ladies. Wasn’t it cool to hold a gun?
The instructor would spend 20 minutes reminding the students of the safety precautions. After he finished speaking, he looked at Ye Jian. He used his gaze to ask her if she had any questions.
Ye Jian smiled. Shooting wasn’t a problem for her.
“Is there anyone who feels that you can’t do it? You can raise your hand and step out now!” The instructor felt reassured. He scanned the students and noticed a few ladies raising their hands hesitantly.
It was good that they had the courage to raise their hands.
The instructor was afraid that some students were too timid to raise their hands. He softened his expression and shouted, “Everyone, gather! Dress, right dress! Dress, left dress! At ease! Attention!”
The students from Class One immediately organized themselves at his command. The other classes arranged themselves in position too. They were about to start the last segment of their military training.
“Ten men to a team, regardless of gender. If you don’t know what to do, step out. We will go through the instructions again. If you still don’t understand, you will have to give up the shooting practice. Do you understand?” The young instructor had been shouting for six days but his voice was still powerful and loud.
Five female students stepped out. Some looked down anxiously. One of them said softly, “Report. I can’t do it. I’m afraid. My knees feel weak when I see the guns.”
“I’ll give you one minute to consider. If you can’t handle it, tell me.” The instructor didn’t force the student or ask her for a reply immediately. He turned to the other four female students and said, “What about you? Do you want to shoot or consider first?”
The four female students exchanged glances with one another. Then, they replied in a soft but resolute tone, “We want to try. We’re just afraid that we will miss the target.”
The instructor smiled. They only handled fake guns for two days. It would be hard for them to hit the target since they had little experience. “There are no strict requirements for the practice. Just remember not to aim the gun at your classmates or move it around.”
If the result of the shooting wasn’t important, they weren’t so afraid anymore.
“If you’re afraid, you can be in the same team as Ye Jian.” The instructor knew that they were just worried about missing the target. Hence, he decided to ask Ye Jian to lead them. With her around, the female students would feel more confident.
Ye Jian had a smooth time in the military unit. She took less than 48 hours to get the complete trust of her instructor.
The female students smiled and heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. They had already forgotten that Ye Jian only came yesterday. “That’s good. That’s good.”
The female student who was afraid of guns decided to give up the training in the end. She was really frightened. Her legs had been trembling all these while.
The instructor allowed her to move to the side. He called Ye Jian and told her, “Ye Jian, you’ll lead these four female students. They’re a little frightened so I hope that you can accompany them.”
