Chapter 1225: She Agreed
Crossbows have powerful lethality, second only to sniper rifles, and can be silenced.
No matter what level of body armor a person wears, as long as he shoots accurately, he can kill with one arrow.
The people Bai Wei asked Cen Xi's adoptive father to shoot were all criminal leaders.
As shooters working for Interpol, they need to hide their identity in society. After all, once exposed, many of them will lose their families.
When his adoptive father died, he told Cen Xi not to touch the crossbow again.
It's true that she hasn't touched it in several years.
Originally, she had prepared a set of words in her heart to reject Uncle Bai Wei.
But looking at the undercover photo in her hand, she hesitated.
"What if we send in snipers?"
"The bullets are too powerful, and it's hard for us to find a sharpshooter who can guarantee infallibility. If there is a deviation, his life will be ruined."
Cen Xi bit her lip and said, "Let me think about it."
Bai Wei took back the photo. He knew that Cen Xi had the same temperament as her adoptive father. He would not reveal a word of secrets that should not be revealed, even if it cost their lives.
Bai Wei looked at Cen Xi, the little girl with a pointed face, and caught a glimpse of her left ear from the corner of his eye. The ear bead was covered with a shell, and it must have been bitten by something.
"Xiao Xi has a boyfriend?"
Cen Xi saw Bai Wei looking at her ears, thinking about what happened between her and Qiao Sen, her white cheeks and ears couldn't help but blush.
"No, no, I just met an unstable guy. Don't worry, Uncle Bai, I can still protect myself."
Bai Wei sighed, "You have thin arms and legs. If you don't bring a crossbow, who will you beat? You have been in poor health since you were a child. If you were good, you could still practice martial arts with me."
Bai Wei's words made Cen Xi blush.
She is indeed not a martial artist. When she was a child, her adoptive father made her squat for half an hour, and she was exhausted.
Being squeamish is really squeamish.
But when practicing crossbow archery, you can really endure hardships.
"Uncle Bai, I will reply to you later."
Bai Wei patted Cen Xi on the shoulder, "Okay." The two said a few more words. Before Bai Wei left, he asked, "Xiao Xi, what do you think of my boy?"
"Brother Bai Lin?" Cen Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I was not good when I was a child, and I didn't like brother Bai Lin. Uncle Bai, please don't make things difficult for brother Bai Lin."
"Okay, let's not mention that kid for now. You go back and think about it carefully."
Cen Xi waved to Bai Wei and turned to leave.
…
Back in the apartment, Cen Xi lay on the floor and took out a box from under the bed.
Open the box and take out the guitar case containing the crossbow.
Her thin white fingers gently touched the black crossbow. This crossbow was used by her adoptive father during his lifetime. It has been modernized and improved. Under the arrow trough, there is a magazine slot for loading ammunition, and there is a sniper aiming point at the handle of the crossbow. mirror.
Cen Xi sat cross-legged on the ground, with thick and long eyelashes hanging down, and whispered softly, "Should I shoot this arrow?"
She knew that if there were snipers in Uncle Bai Wei's team who could ensure that everything was safe, he would not come to her personally.
Qiao Sen must be an important undercover agent for them.
Cen Xi thought of the man she met on the night of the wedding ceremony of the master and the queen. If he were Qiao Sen, he would be able to attend the wedding of the queen and the master, and have Butler Yi personally deliver it to his unique VIP room. He and the queen Lord, what's the relationship?
Johnson...
The same surname is Joe.
Could it be?
Thinking of this, Cen Xi's heart skipped a beat.
No, no, no, it's definitely not him.
He is the young master of the Duke's family. Although the Qiao family is in decline, her niece is the current queen, and the eldest sister is the wife of the richest man. How could he be an undercover agent whose life may be in danger at any time?
Cen Xi shook his head, now was not the time to think wildly.
Although he was evil, hateful, and even a little perverted, after all, he had saved her life in the desert. She couldn't just watch him die...
Cen Xi has a temperament that will stop procrastinating after making a decision, so she immediately replied to Uncle Bai Wei's message.
In the next three days, Cen Xi went to the shooting range specially prepared by Bai Wei and her to train.
She wore a white casual outfit today, covered one of her eyes, and aimed only with her right eye.
With a whoosh, an arrow hit the red heart.
She shot two more arrows in succession, making ten rings.
As she shot the fourth arrow, she tried to imagine the target looking like Jolson.
The little hand holding the crossbow suddenly became nervous and sweaty.
She took a deep breath and adjusted herself.
With a whoosh, the arrow shot out quickly, but this time, it didn't hit the red heart.
"What, are you worried?" A majestic voice sounded from behind. Cen Xi turned around and saw Bai Lin standing not far away, staring at her with a pair of bright eyes, carrying the unique majesty of a soldier.
Bai Lin is the captain of the peacekeeping force and has had an upright temperament since he was a child.
When they were young, they lived in the same compound. She had been afraid of him since she was a child. She used to be naughty and liked to run around with a group of boys. She had short legs and couldn't run fast. She often fell down. Bai Lin saw it and criticized him a lot. she.
But although he was strict with her, he would still stand up and help her whenever someone bullied her.
Later, something happened to her adoptive father and mother, so she moved away, and the Bai and Cen families rarely contacted each other again.
"Brother Bai Lin, why are you here?" Cen Xi has not seen Bai Lin for several years. Now he looks so tall, mighty, handsome and upright.
"I heard from my father that you are practicing archery here. Let me come over and take a look. Why did you miss the last arrow? What are you thinking in your head?"
Cen Xi scratched his scalp, "Brother Bai Lin, why are you still as serious as when you were a child?"
"Are you still afraid of me now?"
"I'm afraid, the shadow was heavier when I was a child." Cen Xi stuck out her tongue playfully.
Bai Lin looked at her. She used to be lively and cute when she was a child, carefree like an elf. After the Cen family's accident, she grew up a lot overnight. He rarely saw her so playful again.
He stepped forward and flicked a shudder on her forehead, "If you are my soldier and you are distracted when shooting, I will punish you by running 20 kilometers with a heavy load."
Goosebumps appeared on Cen Xi's arms, "Brother Bai Lin, please spare me!"
"Then focus on practicing archery."
Cen Xi saluted Bai Lin with a military salute and replied loudly, "Yes."
She stood back up, holding the crossbow in her hand, her eyes focused, and her posture when holding the crossbow was very handsome. It was obvious that she was still a weak and frail little girl just now, but once she took the crossbow to shoot, her whole aura became different.
This time, she didn't let herself get distracted. Every arrow hit the target without any deviation.
The weight of the crossbow is really not light. After shooting ten arrows, she put it down and rubbed her arm. "Brother Bai Lin is laughing at me. I lack exercise and my hands get sore after practicing for a while."
Bai Lin didn't say anything. He stepped forward and squeezed Cen Xi's arm.
