Chapter 286: Three Shots Inferred

Everyone looked at this figure and fell into deep thought, probably guessing what so many storage tanks would be used for.

Instructor Zhao had a whim and gave me a suggestion that I could try to open a jar and take a look. I immediately vetoed it, and if it was a dangerous substance, it wouldn't be all over. I warn him that he must not touch the jars until he finds out what is going on.

Regarding the situation of double gravity, Feng Jiutian's analysis should have nothing to do with these jars, maybe there are facilities to generate gravity on the periphery of this enclosed space. As for why such a gravitational effect was created, we can't think of a reason for it for the time being.

After a brief discussion, it was decided that we would like to take our mission first and enter collectively to find the whereabouts of the missing astronauts. So far, only the road in front of them can basically determine that they have entered the main body.

As for the fact that the passage was closed when we arrived, I have analyzed that this mechanism may be closed at regular intervals. Although it is mechanical, it is not uncommon in the past to solve this problem by using liquid substances such as mercury.

Due to the narrow and complex path inside, we split into two teams. The first team is still composed of me, Instructor Zhao, Feng Jiutian, and An Beimo, and the second team is composed of Qixing, Shen Hao, and Instructor Li. Once inside, advance from both paths at the same time, and support each other when encountering situations.

After the distribution was completed, everyone began to enter, and the sudden sense of gravity made everyone have to adapt for a while, so that they could continue to move forward.

My team marched from the middle position, and the Seven Stars team traveled on the right, and the two teams remained parallel and exchanged news at any time.

There is no lighting in such a large space, only the spotlights in our hands illuminate the way. To be on the safe side, I turned on all the lights on my body and led the way in the first place. At the same time, I asked Feng Jiutian to scan all the places we passed, and the data was transmitted to Instructor Qian, so that he could build the model.

After the action, we were accompanied by silence and darkness, and the two teams moved forward cautiously and slowly, the path narrow, but everyone tried not to touch the mysterious jars.

An Beimo turned on the thermal scanner and inspected the surrounding situation, lest there would be traces of missing astronauts on the road we had not walked.

It occurred to me that I immediately reminded everyone not to shoot lightly here, because the power of our weapons is so powerful that if we shoot through those cans, we don't know what will happen.

After four or five hundred meters, everything worked fine. After a few exchanges between our two teams, we moved on. As soon as I walked a few dozen meters, suddenly Qixing said to me: "Black Eagle! We've found out the situation here, and you'd better take a look! ”

"I'll come right over!" With that, I led my group towards the Seven Stars. When they came closer, they found that all three of them were squatting on the ground. Seeing me, Qixing pointed to a shelf in front of him that held a large jar in place.

I squatted down and looked closer, found an obvious hole in it, and said in surprise, "It's a gun hole!" ”

Qixing nodded, took a step to the side, pointed to a mark on the ground, and said, "There are also here!" ”

I hurriedly went over and looked at it with the lamp, and it was a shallow dent that should have been scratched by a bullet here. The two bullet marks are similar and should have been fired from the same pistol. Judging from the caliber, it should be the pistol equipped by the astronauts of Yuantu 2.

I got up and looked behind me, it was the same road that the Seven Stars had just walked, and the person who fired the shot must have been fired from the other side of the road.

After seeing it, Instructor Zhao said: "It must be that the astronauts are in some danger or have been attacked, so they opened their guns, and it seems that there are other enemies hidden here." ”

Feng Jiutian asked me, "Could it be that they encountered some monster attack?" I was stunned and asked her why she said that.

Feng Jiutian pointed to the bullet marks and said, "You can see that the two positions that were hit are very low. If it's an attack on a person, it's supposed to be a shot in the body, not in the leg or foot, right? So I figured out if it was some kind of short or reptilian monster attacking them. ”

After listening to Feng Jiutian's words, Instructor Zhao nodded again and again, saying that Feng Jiutian's analysis was very reasonable. Hearing Instructor Zhao's praise, Feng Jiutian nodded at him slightly proudly to express his gratitude.

I didn't speak, I walked back slowly along the path that the Seven Stars had walked, observed the location of the two gun marks from a distance, estimated the position where the shooter was standing at that time, and assumed the scene in my mind.

After thinking about it, I went back to everyone and said, "No! I'm afraid it's not what the doctor says. ”

Feng Jiutian was stunned for a moment, and asked me rhetorically, "What's wrong?" Is there a deviation in my analysis? ”

I said politely: "It's not a deviation, it's that what you said is simply not possible." Seeing that Feng Jiutian's face was unconvinced, I squatted down and pointed to the scratches and said, "This should be the first shot fired." Then I pointed to the bullet hole in the shelf and said, "Here's the second shot." ”

Then I stood up, looked into the distance and said, "I think there should be a third shot!" ”

When everyone heard that I had judged that there was a third shot, they all looked at me in amazement.

I went through my thoughts again in my mind before I said, "I'm going to try to recreate the situation, and you can help me judge it, and if there's anything I've overlooked, remind me." ”

After that, I asked everyone to walk back with me, to my estimated shooting position, raised my hand to gesture with a pistol, pointed ahead, and said, "When I walked here, the astronauts noticed that there was something ahead. It's hard to say what was found, but it's certain that the astronauts didn't hesitate to shoot when they saw it. ”

Instructor Zhao asked me in surprise, "How can you be so sure?" ”

I said, "Look at this position, it's right at the turnaround on the last corner, which means that as soon as they got to this road, they spotted the situation on the other side." ”

Feng Jiutian said: "That doesn't conflict with my analysis, you look at the bullet point on the opposite side, it is obvious that it is shooting downward." ”

I shook my head and said, "No. Then I did a flat pistol shooting motion and continued: "The person who fired the gun at that time must have been shooting directly in front of me, with parallel vision." ”

Feng Jiutian immediately retorted to me: "Impossible, how could the first shot hit the ground?" ”

An Beimo interjected at this time: "Because of gravity! Don't forget, the gravitational effect here is more than twice as high as Earth's, and even if a bullet is fired, it can't escape the effect of gravity. ”

This question was ignored, and Feng Jiutian immediately stopped talking.

Then I said to everyone, "Look at the position of the second shot, it is offset to the left, and it is a cut higher than the position of the first shot. This indicates that the shooter was also aware of the effect of gravity, causing the bullet to fall, so he raised the muzzle of the gun slightly and fired a second shot at the target. However, the interval between the two shots was very short, so the judgment was not very accurate, and the second shot was still slightly lower and hit the shelf. ”

This time, no one contradicted me, and they all listened quietly.

I continued: "The first shot was a mistake that didn't take gravity into account, and the second shot I think was too hasty and missed. Because the target to be shot has already begun to escape, which is why there is some distance between the first and second landing points. ”

I see that everyone has begun to nod silently when they hear this.

"As for the third shot!" I said again: "I guess the shooter raised the muzzle of the gun sharply at this point, because the enemy was about to flee into the shooting corner, so in a hurry, he fired a third shot, but this time it was high again." If my guess is correct, look ahead, and we can find traces of a third bullet. ”

My words made everyone admire, especially Zhao and Li, and Instructor Zhao couldn't help muttering: "So good at reasoning, is Conan possessed?" ”

Feng Jiutian just showed a little admiration, but immediately put it away, and said sarcastically: "I don't believe you can deduce so accurately. After speaking, he took An Beimo and Qixing as companions, and went to the front place to find the "third bullet point" I said.

After a while, the three of them came back, Feng Jiutian looked nonchalant, Qixing held back a smile, and An Beimo was a little helpless.

I don't need to ask to know that my inference has been confirmed.

I'll ask everyone to search around again to see if there are any other clues, but don't go far, within ten meters of each other.

There were no anomalies other than bullet marks found.

So I told everyone to follow the original plan and move on. But be careful on the road, as unknown threats are already lurking around us.

We continued to divide into two teams and advance, and on the way, Instructor Zhao couldn't help but ask me in the back: "How did you just judge that in that case, you fired three shots?" ”

Hearing Instructor Zhao's question, Feng Jiutian immediately echoed and said, "Yes, I also wonder about this question, how did you see it at that time, Black Eagle?" ”

I looked ahead and replied, "If you're familiar with weapons and trained in militarization, you can guess." ”

My words made Instructor Zhao and Feng Jiutian stunned for a moment, and I continued: "There is a very standardized shooting training in the army, and the purpose is to shoot faster and more accurately than anyone else when encountering the enemy suddenly. Because if you're even 0.1 seconds slower than your opponent, you'll die. ”

After turning a small corner, I continued: "I saw the two bullet points very close to each other just now, which proves that the person who fired the gun is definitely a man with excellent military skills. And from the analysis of the shooting angle just now, there is definitely a chance for him to shoot a third shot, how could he miss it? ”
