Chapter 157 Preparation
School is really a circle.
How could it be spread like this? Jiang Hui frowned, a little unbelievable that the person in the other party's rumors was her, otherwise...why wouldn't she know it herself, ah? !
But the rumored time, place and person were all named. Doesn’t this refer to the buddy who was inexplicably targeted yesterday afternoon? In other words, the person passing the news is...her? !
It’s really a question mark in capital letters. What’s being said here, this, and this is too bizarre. It belongs to the series where the people involved were dumbfounded after hearing it. And it wasn't just a limited contact. There was no competition and no defeat. She felt that the senior who was inexplicably spread rumors and fell into disgrace was also unlucky, and he was given such a good name.
Of course, what was even more unlucky was that she had someone make up rumors and spread them everywhere, and she even offended a senior student for no apparent reason. What if the other party thought it was her who spread the word? Even if she acted and stood upright, there was no need to worry about what she didn't do.
She was really happy at the moment that she had such an abnormal reputation.
That's all, there is a lot of buzz outside, and it is probably impossible to take it back now, and there is no need to explain, lest it becomes more and more tarnished.
But she still had to make it clear about the matter before her. Jiang Hui really couldn't resist the inexplicable enthusiasm of this Hillman classmate, because she knew that she was not the powerful person in his eyes. It would be bad if he was asked to add a weird filter because of this, so the matter must be made clear.
Unexpectedly, Hillman’s brain circuit is different from ordinary people. Hearing Jiang Hui’s correction, he asked indifferently: "Then you still won, classmate Jiang, you are too humble."
"It's not really a win, it's just a small game where I gained the upper hand. If there was a formal competition, he should be much better than me." Jiang Hui commented objectively.
Nie Erqi chatted with her last night and discussed this issue with her.
The other party told her that as a beginner, although she was extremely talented and had the ability to become an excellent shooter, Jiang Hui had only been exposed to this skill for a short time and lacked training and experience. The rapid progress and performance during this period are also based on talent and the fearless bonus of first contact. Once you get deeper into it and hit the bottleneck, various problems will arise.
Talent is the cornerstone and a prerequisite for reaching the top, but it is not a process. To go up, you have to build a ladder yourself. And the fearlessness of being not afraid of tigers at birth will gradually disappear as you become more proficient, replaced by caution and braking. This is naturally a good development direction and represents the maturity of skills, but it has undoubtedly lost some of its natural characteristics.
All in all, Jiang Hui has shooting ability, but she still has a long way to go if she wants to beat He Si at this stage. Nie Erqi gave her a lot of advice and guided her on some appropriate ways to improve.
Nie Erqi gave Jiang Hui advice, even though he knew that the girl in front of him was not the type to think highly of herself. But as a teacher, he still wanted to give this reminder, hoping that she would have a clearer understanding of her level and position.
Hillman actually didn't care about Jiang Hui's clarifying explanation, or it should be said that he understood it as Jiang Hui's modesty.
Of course it is impossible for him to really believe the rumors flying around. Because even he felt that these rumors were too exaggerated, and neither party involved came forward. There are various versions of this rumor, and they are very popular, which makes it even more untrue.
After learning that one of the parties involved was Jiang Hui, Hillman knew more clearly that this matter must have been spread like this by others. Because he really couldn't match the arrogant shooting freshman in the "legend" with the Jiang Hui he knew. They didn't match up at all.
However, if this rumor spreads, it is probably true. So if he bumped into someone today, he would inevitably ask him something. The version drawn from Jiang Hui's mouth is naturally much more real, or it should be said that this is the truth.
Hillman really felt that his new friend was sometimes too humble. Even if he really has commendable strength, he doesn't seem to take it seriously. He never thinks that the ability he possesses is something extraordinary, and he is so clear-headed and calm.
However, the more this happened, the more curious he became about Jiang Hui. He really wanted to be friends with such a person.
After fading away from the topic, the two chatted about some things, including some new things that happened in their years, gossip about the orienteering station tomorrow, or the big things happening in the interstellar these days. Incidents big and small... are also rare moments of relaxation. I just don't know what the situation will be like tomorrow.
————————————
After adjusting his training clothes, Jiang Hui looked in the mirror to make sure his appearance was correct, then took off his hat and left the dormitory.
Today is the last part of the military training, the orienteering race. All first-year majors will participate, but in order to ensure the safety of students in general majors, military majors and general majors will still be separated.
She had received a notice last night that the school asked all freshmen to dress neatly and gather at the designated gathering venue on time, and reminded everyone that it is prohibited to bring communication equipment such as optical computers into the competition venue. In addition, the prohibited items on the list are naturally within the scope, so there is no need to say more.
It was still early when she left home. Because the dormitory was a bit far away, it was already late when she arrived at her destination. At a glance, the huge venue was filled with people. It took her a while to find the square that marked her class.
This is Jiang Hui's first time visiting this place. This is the second largest training ground of Beskar Intermediate College. It is usually used for large-scale activities. It is not a problem to accommodate students of an entire grade. There are quite a lot of people looking at their school like this, and only one grade occupies such a large area.
After finding his team, Jiang Hui quietly merged into the crowd, acting as a qualified background, not wanting to attract attention at all.
The instructors have not come yet, because it is not yet time to gather, so everyone present is relatively relaxed, and basically they just relax and stand in a fairly upright military posture.
Jiang Hui looked at the venue and found that the training ground was really a little different... Some conspicuous places had posters and slogans about this orienteering race, and some were densely written. Know what signage. There's quite a bit of atmosphere.
Some parts of the training ground are also decorated with ribbons and some banners needed to add to the atmosphere. There are machines similar to large surveillance camera equipment at the four corners.
Everything seems to be ready.
