Chapter 29 The Chase Game

Ji Xinghuo's first thought was not what she said, but that your voice sounds so nice!

 Then I became wary.

 “Excuse me, who are you?”

 “Mr. Ji, don’t be suspicious.”

Her eyes blinked, and even though they were obscured by the scarf, you could guess that she was smiling, which was very contagious, "My team is recruiting a shooter, but no suitable candidate was found. I happened to meet you a few times in the recruitment center. So I’m a little bit interested.”

Ji Xinghuo was happy in his heart, but remained calm on the surface, "Your team?"

 He ​​always felt that this woman was not simple. The more beautiful the woman, the more likely she was to deceive others, although he was still not sure whether the other woman was really beautiful.

“Yes, I am the captain of a hunting team, and our team is very strong.” The woman was obviously being modest.

Ji Xinghuo became suspicious instead, "You should know that I am only a junior ranger. If your team is very strong, why would you like me?"

“Rank is not important, my requirements are different from other teams.”

 The woman stood up and walked past.

Ji Xinghuo smelled a refreshing fragrance, like the unique fragrance of peach blossoms, gardenias, white orchids and other plants mixed together. It was fresh and elegant, very light, almost too light to be noticed, but once you smell it, you will probably never smell it again. Will forget.

He was still in a daze, but the other party had already reached the door of the restaurant, turned around and asked, "Mr. Ji, doesn't he have confidence in himself?"

"coming."

Ji Xinghuo put down his half-eaten dinner, wiped his mouth, stood up and followed.

 The two of them left the restaurant and walked on the street.

Ji Xinghuo followed her, and then he remembered to ask, "I haven't asked you how to address her yet."

"My name is Ren Mian." She turned around and answered, then as if she was afraid that Ji Xinghuo wouldn't know which word it was, she took the initiative to explain: "Willful Ren, Mian Mian."

"Ren is the pronunciation of surname, so it should be pronounced rén, right?" Ji Xinghuo was a little surprised.

"Here you are willful Ren." Ren Mian emphasized willfully, "If you successfully join my team, you can call me Sister Ren in the future."

 The wayward sister?

Ji Xinghuo complained in his heart and replied: "Okay, Sister Ren."

 Then neither of them spoke.

 Walking several hundred meters without stopping, Ji Xinghuo couldn't help but ask: "Sister Ren, where are we going?"

"You said that your strength is higher than that of the mid-level ranger, and your archery skills are very strong. I have never seen it, so I took you to test it." Ren Mian said softly: "Although my requirements are different from other teams, as a ranger , your basic skills must always pass.”

Ji Xinghuo nodded, "Thank you, Sister Ren, for giving me this opportunity."

“Don’t be too happy first. Archery is just the first test, the more difficult ones will come later. When you join my team, it won’t be too late to thank you.”

Ren Mian said and pointed forward: "We are here."

It was an archery studio on the street. After the two of them entered, Ren Mian directly asked the front desk to arrange a separate indoor shooting range, which did not allow other people to watch.

 When the staff went out, Ren Mian pointed at the farthest target on the opposite side.

 “I’ll give you 10 seconds to prepare.”

“Between the 10th and 20th seconds, complete ten shots, each arrow must have ten rings.” After saying that, she raised her wrist and pulled up her sleeves, revealing a mechanical watch, and started timing.

Without any hesitation, Ji Xinghuo took down the compound hunting bow that had been carried on his back with his backhand. At the same time, he lowered the quiver and placed it diagonally across his right waist.

 During this process, he is also observing the target.

The archery target designated by Ren Mian is a standard target with a diameter of 80 centimeters, but the distance is 150 meters, which is far beyond the distance that a junior ranger can grasp, and it is also very difficult for an intermediate ranger.

Although it is a fixed target, it requires completing ten arrows and ten rings in one breath within ten seconds, which most senior rangers cannot do.

 If it were another junior ranger, he might not even be able to see the ten rings on the arrow target clearly.

However, Ji Xinghuo did not complain.

Ren Mian kept timing, and at the tenth second, she raised her right index finger as a signal.

Snapped!

Ji Xinghuo shot the first arrow almost at the same time, and the arrow turned into a black line and flew away in the blink of an eye. He didn't look at the result. He used his dexterous hands to the extreme. He attached the second arrow in his palm, opened the bow and pulled the string, and shot out again.

Pap, pah, pah, pah!

Six arrows were shot in a row, and their flight trajectories formed a bulging parabola. Each arrow was exactly the same, and it shot towards the bullseye one after another.

 This only took about five seconds.

The five arrows that Ji Xinghuo had grasped in advance were all used up. His eyes were fixed on the target, his posture remained unchanged, but his right hand reached into the quiver on his waist, and he deftly grabbed four arrows.

 The seventh arrow goes up the bow.

The moment she was about to shoot, Ren Mian, who was standing next to her, suddenly snapped her fingers. Bang, the light from the crystal lamps installed around her was instantly attracted to her fingertips. The light in the shooting range room suddenly dimmed, making her almost invisible. .

Ji Xinghuo still shot the arrow. At the same time, he turned to look at Ren Mian and said with a smile:

“Sister Ren, it’s not good to carry out sneak attacks.”

 As he spoke, he shot another arrow in the darkness, as if the change in light was not affected at all.

 Pap, pah, pah!

 Shoot the remaining three arrows.

 The brightness returned to the shooting range room. Ren Mian looked at the archery target 150 meters away. Ten arrows were densely inserted on it, all landing on the ten-ring bull's-eye.

 “It took eight seconds.”

Ren Mian glanced at the mechanical watch, with a look of surprise that could not be concealed in his eyes, and praised: "It's faster than I expected. Just with this shooting skill, the Olympia team will rush for you."

Not to mention, this was a shot that was completed without her interference. Ji Xinghuo exhaled, as if to vent all the frustration he had suffered in the past two days, and laughed at himself: "They will only dislike me."

"Haha..." Ren Mian chuckled, "It seems I missed it."

 “Then do I pass?” Ji Xinghuo asked.

"I passed the level of archery." Ren Mian shook his head lightly, causing the gauze on the edge of the hat to sway like waves, and said meaningfully: "The next test is what I value more. However, you It shouldn’t be difficult for you to be able to shoot ten rings in the dark.”

 “Sister Ren, please give me the question.” Ji Xinghuo looked calm.

"This level is a test of perception." Ren Mian looked at the target filled with arrows. "You go and collect your own arrows, and then go out in three minutes. Don't lose me."

 After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving Ji Xinghuo alone.

Ji Xinghuo was stunned for a moment.

 But he immediately ran over, pulled out all the arrows, put back the quiver, and looked at the time on the mechanical watch, without any worry on his face.

 Magnetic field induction has locked onto Ren Mian.

 She suddenly quickened her pace after leaving the archery hall. She turned very fast and turned into a small alley more than 200 meters away. Then she stood still.

 That is a visual blind spot, which is difficult for ordinary people to find.

 But in magnetic field induction, it appears like a lighthouse in the dark night.

As soon as three minutes were up, Ji Xinghuo walked out of the archery hall and pretended to look around at the door several times before approaching Ren Mian's position.

 The distance between the two was close to half, and Ren Mian immediately moved.

She continued deeper into the alley where she was hiding, climbed over the wall, and shuttled between the cracks and eaves of buildings, changing directions from time to time.

Ji Xinghuo did not pursue her into the alley, but only accelerated her pace slightly, staying far behind Ren Mian to keep her within the range of his magnetic field induction.

Ren Mian's perception is extremely strong, and he can obviously grasp Ji Xinghuo's position.

So her speed became even faster.

 Many times, she would jump directly onto the roof and take a shortcut, trying to get rid of Ji Xinghuo's pursuit, and Ji Xinghuo had to speed up.

 However, Ren Mian's speed was obviously faster, and the distance between the two gradually widened.

 After a few minutes, she was out of range of the magnetic field.

Ji Xinghuo lost Ren Mian's figure, but he didn't panic at all. He turned his head to the corner where no one could see him, and the halo in his right eye flashed, activating the All-Things Star Pupil with all his strength.

 Suddenly, countless illusory lines, lights and shadows flowed before our eyes, evolving into futures one after another.

 Wanxiang Senluo!

Since the last time he was in a crisis, Ji Xinghuo finally mastered the ability of Wanxiang Xingpu to predict the future after groping for several times, and called this ability "Wanxiang Senluo".

　　Opening Vientiane Senluo requires star power, which lasts up to three seconds.

However, it doesn’t take so long now.

Ji Xinghuo only turned it on for a blink of an eye, got the direction guidance in less than half a second, and then immediately turned off Wanxiang Senluo.

 He ran quickly in one direction. Ten seconds later, Ren Mian appeared in his magnetic field induction again.

Ren Mian stood at a street corner, seemingly unaware that he was being overtaken.

 When the distance between the two shortened to only a hundred meters, Ren Mian finally realized.

 She left quickly again.

  After a moment.

Ji Xinghuo lost track of him for the second time. It wasn't because he couldn't sense the magnetic field, but because his speed couldn't keep up. The junior ranger was still too reluctant in this regard.

So he inspired Wanxiang Senluo again for half a second and caught up with Ren Mian again.

 Repeat this three times.

 The two ran and chased each other, and after more than an hour they had passed through half of Dongxia District.

Ji Xinghuo has never been here before. There is less traffic in this neighborhood, the patrols are tighter, and the strength of the strangers coming and going is also higher. It is obviously an upper-class area in Olympia City.

 Suddenly, Ren Mian’s movement trajectory changed.

 She is no longer as alert as she was before, when she gets close, and moves away in the most advantageous direction, and the direction of movement becomes more random.

Ji Xinghuo thought about it and understood.

 Ren Mian lost the ability to sense his position. He lowered his head and smelled it, with a smile on his face, "That's it."

Ji Xinghuo boldly closed the distance with Ren Mian, but found that she didn't move.

As I got closer, I realized it was a bar.

Ren Mian stood at the door of the bar. When she saw Ji Xinghuo walking slowly from the street in the distance, her beautiful eyes were a little surprised, but also helpless and curious, but in the end she did not ask. exit.

 “Sister Ren.”

Ji Xinghuo stepped forward and shouted.

Ren Mian nodded slightly, stretched out his white and delicate hands, and said seriously: "Welcome to join my team."
