The atmosphere turned slightly awkward.
Xia Zixin stood confidently with her hands on her hips. She raised her chin in a challenging gesture.
The expressions on the others' faces varied.
Saa stared in confusion.
A little girl had just called Professor Wang a braggart!
Wasn't Xia Zixin being a bit too audacious?
The audience in the live stream room shifted their support and began to question Xia Zixin.
"I get it. She's defending her father, but claiming that the pistol has no recoil seems a bit ridiculous, doesn't it?"
"I thought of a certain joke. Two little kids were competing to see whose father was more capable. In the end, one said his father could eat sh*t, and the other nodded without hesitation while saying his father could eat sh*t too!"
"Hahaha, I remember that joke. It's so juvenile. It feels like Xia Zixin is doing the same now."
"It's alright to brag about Daddy!"
"This question is actually quite simple. Since Xia Zixin said this gun has no recoil, why don't we just try it out?"
"What on earth is this little girl doing?!"
"Wow, this brings back memories."
Captain Zhao rubbed his temples helplessly.
Xia Zixin was sensible and intelligent.
However, she had been greatly influenced by her father. She would never allow anyone to speak ill of her father.
He exhaled and spoke, "Professor Wang...
"The child doesn't know any better. Don't stoop to her level.
"She adores her father a lot, so when she heard the advantages and disadvantages of the gun in your hand, she couldn't handle it.
"Don't take her words to heart.
"How could it be 25 times more powerful and have a greater range than the original?"
Xia Zixin glared at Captain Zhao with annoyance.
She pouted.
"Mr. Zhao, my father never brags!"
Professor Wang fell silent for a moment before saying, "Xia Zixin, I shouldn't have casually said your father was bragging.
"I apologize!"
Everyone was taken aback yet again.
"Oh my goodness, how can this old man be so humble?!
"Professor Wang is really gentle. If it were another professor or expert, they might not even acknowledge Xia Zixin!"
"I didn't like Professor Wang much before, but now I'm convinced. This man is a saint. He's got so much love!"
"If I ever had the privilege of learning under him, I could gain so much!"
"You're overthinking it. I'm one of his students. I've been sent to the mountain area for two years. Now, I feel nauseous at the sight of potatoes..."
"You've been through a lot..."
Xia Zixin smiled bashfully upon hearing Professor Wang's words.
"Sir, I was a little impolite too.
"I also apologize!"
"Alright, let's get back to the discussion about the gun, shall we?" Professor Wang smiled.
"You claim this gun has no recoil, but I've never seen a gun without recoil.
"How are you going to convince me?
"Why don't you demonstrate it to me?"
Xia Zixin nodded vigorously.
"I can demonstrate it to you now!"
However, at that moment...
Captain Zhao immediately pulled Xia Zixin back.
Xia Zixin was a bit puzzled.
"This old man doesn't believe this gun has no recoil. He's insisting my father is bragging.
"I'll show him and make him believe me!"
Captain Zhao patted Xia Zixin's head.
"Xia Zixin, we should calm down.
"This gun is a real gun, not a toy. You're too young, and it's too unsafe!
"You can't play around with this!"
Captain Zhao looked at the camera.
"Professor Wang, let's hold off demonstrations for the time being!
"Xia Zixin is just a first-grader. You can't give her a real gun!"
Saa nodded.
"Professor Wang, I understand your dedication to scientific research.
"However, Xia Zixin is too young. It's not good for her to handle a real gun!"
The netizens in the live broadcast room also agreed with this point.
"Why don't we do this? Professor Wang, admit that this gun has no recoil first and test it later!"
"Professor Wang is letting his enthusiasm take over again. He's forgotten that Xia Zixin is only a first-year student."
"Even Detective Conan couldn't have fired a real gun in his first year. There is absolutely no way for Xia Zixin to handle it!"
"Little girl, be obedient. Let Captin Zhao work on it. You're too young!"
Professor Wang smiled.
"What are you all thinking?
"How could I let a child demonstrate a real gun?
"Someone else said it. Let's have Captain Zhao demonstrate it.
"Are you all crazy? Even if I weren't on the run, I wouldn't let a child shoot a real gun!"
Upon hearing this, the viewers let out a collective sigh of relief.
"So that's how it is!"
"I knew it. No matter who Professor Wang is, he wouldn't let a child demonstrate a real gun!"
"Regardless, I'm firmly on Professor Wang's side. Even if we're proven wrong this time, Professor Wang will always be a legend!"
"Everyone, don't pay attention. That's just his student trying to curry favor and get out of the backwoods!"
"Hahaha, are we going to start testing the gun? This is going to be awesome!"
Captain Zhao scratched his head awkwardly.
"So that's how it is..." he chuckled.
"Hahaha, Professor Wang, I was too anxious. I'll go get prepared!"
Professor Wang waved his hand helplessly.
"You guys are thinking too highly of me...
"I just want to know if this gun has recoil!"
Professor Wang seemed indifferent on the surface.
But his heart was pounding.
After all, a pistol without recoil would be otherworldly.
If it were true, many industries in the nation would advance by light-years ahead.
They could even outstrip global technology by a century!
If Xia Zixin's father was right and the alloy was at a mixture of 1:10000, the entire world would be shaken!
Of course, all of this hinged on Captain Zhao's gun test.
There were many bullets in the warehouse.
Captain Zhao deftly loaded the bullets into the magazine.
At that moment, Xia Zixin looked at Captain Zhao and spoke again.
"Mr. Zhao, if you want to test the gun... you can't just use training bullets!"
