Girls und War

"This was actually an accident." Yanjie gathered his words and quickly said to them, "Well, the officer I roomed with was also a major general, did you know that?"

"I know." Xia Shu nodded.

Xia Shu saw her roommate when Yanjie came out to find them that day.

She is a major general girl in charge of logistics, and she looks very lively.

"You may not know that the major general is also your fan." Yanjie threw out another piece of information.

Neither of them had anticipated this, and they didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Yanjie continued, "And every time I go back to the dormitory, she pesters me to ask about you two. I usually tell her. But a few days ago, when I was sending her photos, I accidentally let her see the photo of you two together."

Both of them were stunned when they heard this.

"I really didn't mean to do that. I was planning to…" Yanjie hesitated, not saying what he would do with the photo. "Anyway, I didn't intend to send it out. But I didn't expect that major general would turn around and publicize it."

At this point, she revealed a self-blaming expression. "It's also my fault for not being careful enough to tell that Major General that this matter needed to be kept secret. I guess she didn't think it was a big deal, just a topic of gossip after dinner."

After Yanjie finished speaking, Natsuki and Haruka fell silent for a moment.

They didn't expect the news to spread like this.

But at this point, it was impossible for the two of them to blame Yanjie.

After all, he was a major general, and the fact that he came over to talk things over clearly with the two of them meant that he considered them friends. Otherwise, even if Yanjie kept silent, how could they really come to question a general?

However, Chunxiang still had some doubts, so she asked, "So that major general...just because she said that, did others believe her?"

"He's a major general after all." Yanjie, completely unaware of his own rank, said decisively, "A major general's credibility is there. How dare he speak nonsense?"

"What a coincidence..." Xia Shu sighed.

The three of them also showed sullen expressions at this time.

"So, what should we do now? Should we just ignore this?" Chunxiang's expression was troubled again. "If this continues, what will people think of us? Living together and messing around during the competition? How can we be so tactless?"

This is a matter of reputation, and they cannot afford to ignore it.

Yanjie also frowned at this time and said, "Since I was the one who caused this, I should take the responsibility."

"How are you going to take responsibility for this?" Chunxiang was a little surprised.

"I'll make an official announcement and make everything clear. Just wait." Yanjie, displaying the responsibility of a general, gestured to the two, "And you two, both make a statement on social media to explain that you're just ordinary comrades. The outside world's speculation is just a misunderstanding. While you're indeed roommates, you haven't developed into a couple."

After Yanjie finished speaking, both of them nodded.

Then she stood up and said, "I'll go contact the Publicity Department first. You just wait here."

With that, he left the room.

Although the two did not know how Yanjie would handle the matter, they still listened to Yanjie's words and quickly made clarifying statements on their personal blogs.

However, most people viewed this statement in a joking manner, and everyone believed that it was an act of covering one's ears and stealing the bell.

But a little later, a heavyweight guest came on stage to confirm and characterize the statements made by these two people.

The Hua District Military Propaganda Department issued a statement in the name of Yanjie, clearly stating that the two were innocent and there was no special romantic relationship.

What is the Military Propaganda Department? The official channel for Hua District.

Everyone knows him as the first commander of the Shengqilin aircraft carrier formation.

The joint voice of these two channels cannot help but make people believe in its credibility.

The text details of the statement are also clear and concise.

Yanjie clarified that the previous online rumors were just a misunderstanding.

The photo did exist, but it was taken by chance when Yanjie and two other people were playing casual games in the dormitory.

You can understand that the three of them were playing some rock-paper-scissors game at the time, and the two losers hugged each other and were photographed by Yanjie.

Unfortunately, the photo was seen by other people, causing misunderstanding.

So what everyone thought happened did not happen.

It's normal for friends to play around. Girls, being minors, aren't it normal for them to be a bit exaggerated and lively?

The Military Respect Act warns those who have wrong thoughts.

This matter ends here. I hope there will be no more disrespectful remarks on the Internet.

If there are still people spreading malicious rumors, it will not be as simple as a verbal warning.

As soon as the research was conducted, people on the Internet expressed their conviction.

When someone with such credibility speaks out, no one can help but believe him.

Since they said it doesn't matter, then it doesn't matter.

If fans continue to nag and produce some true or false "evidence", they will be labeled as rumormongers.

In this age of online information transparency, being labeled this way is no fun.

From now on, anyone who speaks online will have a record of spreading rumors attached to their ID tag.

This is equivalent to the loss of personal credibility, and the loss of anonymity and privacy on the Internet.

I think no citizen of the online world would want to become such a "criminal", right?

Although everyone is still thinking about the little stories about the first and second place in the flower district, at this moment, no one is discussing this matter publicly anymore.

563. What? The Spring and Summer Party is dead?

Yanjie fulfilled his promise and stood up to clear the names of Haruka and Natsuki.

Now, no one will suspect that the two of them are just messing around in the dormitory for no reason.

Although you can still think about it, you can't speak it out.

Just like you can imagine how to rob a bank, but you can't actually do it.

Haruka and Natsuki finally relaxed when they saw that they had been temporarily cleared of all charges.

Now they can open the information interface and no longer have to worry about being bombarded with messages from mom fans.

And those Gachi lovers who were as confused as Miyu also felt greatly comforted after receiving the righteous official announcement.

Except for those twisted remnants who clamored for spring and summer stickers, everyone got a satisfactory result.

Although the idols’ private lives may really be that unbearable, the side of them exposed to the public at least leaves room for imagination, doesn’t it?

As for the remnants of Chunxia?

You'd better drown yourself with your ideals!

After this little episode, the snipers' competition day soon arrived again.

At least Natsuki and Haruka had recovered from the impact of the rumors, and no one was so blind as to come over and make fun of them.

However, when they were in the contestants' preparation room, there was something clearly wrong with the way everyone looked at them.

Smiling Face ran over and said, "Your story has spread all over the Moon Orbit Base."

"I told you it's not true! No!" Haruka made a big X with her hands.

"I know there's no such thing, but people just love to fantasize." Smiling Face said innocently, "Look, the first and second are getting married, how much of a topic is this?"

"Even if there's a topic, you can't joke about people's privacy. It's meaningless."

The person who spoke was not Haruka or Natsuki, but little Jack who was doing warm-up exercises nearby.

Little Jack's words were immediately agreed upon by Chun Xia and the others, and they both quickly cast a united and boycotted look towards Smiley Face.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault." Smiling Face quickly put on a helpless expression, holding his head and sighing, "Alas... The Chunxia Kingdom is gone..."

Both of them ignored her. Feeling their smiles were boring, they walked aside and started doing warm-up exercises.

After entering the stadium, the audience was as enthusiastic as ever, cheering one after another, like a landslide and tsunami.

The snipers were already accustomed to this kind of scene, so they raised their hands and waved to everyone.

Soon, they entered the holographic device under the instructions of the referee.

Although this round of competition is also conducted in groups, according to the competition rules, everyone must enter the competition venue at the same time and complete the competition under the watchful eyes of other players.

This is because the difficulty of the shooting competition is not as great as that of the previous competitions for them. If they are given a quiet and stable environment, everyone's performance will be top-notch.

This way, we can no longer see the differences between people on a psychological level.

Therefore, in order to make the competition more difficult and put pressure on the contestants, the organizers deliberately let other contestants watch within the field of vision of the contestants.

In this way, players with poor psychological quality will easily make mistakes and affect their results.

Those with better psychological qualities will naturally gain an advantage in the game.

In addition, the grouping of shooting competitions is also very sophisticated.

The groups for this round of competition are no longer drawn randomly.

Instead, it is based on the current ranking order. The lower the ranking, the further back the group will be.

The top ten teams form a group and compete in the first round, while the bottom ten teams form a group and compete in the second round.

In other words, those players who ranked lower in previous competitions will be given certain care at this stage.

This is also to give them hope of a comeback and not make the game too difficult.

However, even so, it is still difficult for those players ranked lower to catch up with the former in points.

After all, in the shooting event, as long as there are no major mistakes, the score difference will generally not be very large.

As for the first player who loses points due to mistakes caused by heavy pressure, that is a problem of personal ability and the referee team cannot be blamed.

After the rules were read out, the contestants sat in the spectator seats under the guidance of the referee.

Then the top ten in the first group of competition lined up in the front row under the guidance of the referee.

Xia Shu stood first and received the most attention.

But she was not nervous at all. After the referee confirmed the situation with them, she quickly walked to the shooting range.

This is a 100-meter shooting range, and at the end of the range are ten human-shaped targets.

Each of them has a shooting range, and at the front of the range is a table.

The table is empty at this point, but wait, the competition guns will appear.

The contestants will use a variety of different firearms to participate in shooting competitions, and the results of the competition will be ranked according to their scores.

After the ten contestants in the first group were ready, the referee asked everyone to take their positions.

Natsuki quickly lowered his head and made a gesture as if he was about to reach for his gun.

The referee gave the order and announced the start of the game.

Then, a projection resembling a gun part appeared on the table.

At this time, the contestants cannot pick up the gun parts. The time given to them now is the "question review" time to read the gun information.

Because the first competition in the shooting event is multi-gun shooting.

The contestants must be very familiar with the structure and performance of various types of guns, ensuring that even if they only see gun parts, they can quickly complete the assembly work.

Xia Shu quickly determined that the gun on the table was a semi-automatic pistol. She didn't know the make, but she could tell at a glance what the gun's components were.

After a few seconds of red light timing, the shadows of the gun parts on the table quickly turned into entities.

Xia Shu picked up the parts on the table without hesitation and assembled them at a dazzling speed.

Under everyone's gaze, it only took a few seconds for Xia Shu to reassemble the pistol.

After the magazine was loaded and the bolt was pulled, the countdown above Xia Shu's head stopped immediately.

Her team shooting results were scored.

Xia Shu was the fastest at assembling the gun, but after she aimed at the target in front of her, she did not shoot immediately.

Because the shooting speed after the gun is assembled is not included in the scoring range, many players are actually slow shooters, but this is not a big deal for snipers.

Therefore, as long as the five bullets can hit the target perfectly, there is no requirement for group calculation.

She aimed very carefully and had a steady hand.
