"Bang!"

Gunfire rang out again.

The balloon at the very edge of the corner burst with a snap!

"They won?!" The crowd gasped in surprise.

Before the stall owner could react...

"Bang bang bang bang bang—!"

The gunshots that followed formed a continuous line!

Su Xiaoxiao didn't pause for long. Each time she pulled the trigger, the gun muzzle only jumped slightly before quickly returning to center, followed by the sound of the next balloon popping.

The rhythmic sound of gunfire was exhilarating!

Five shots! Ten shots! Fifteen shots!

She even did something fancy, popping the balloons into a straight line from left to right!

"Eighteen, nineteen...twenty!"

As the last bullet was fired, the red balloon in the center burst with a "pop," signaling the end of the game.

Twenty shots, all hit!

A wisp of white smoke was still rising from the muzzle of the gun.

Su Xiaoxiao lowered her gun, let out a long breath, turned to look at Lin Fan, and flashed a bright smile, her two little tiger teeth looking especially adorable.

"Boss Lin, I have not failed you!"

There was a three-second silence before thunderous applause and cheers erupted.

"Holy crap! A female knight-errant!"

"That marksmanship is incredible! Is this the legendary hidden master?"

"They can shoot this accurately while wearing a mascot costume? How are we grown men supposed to put our faces like that?!"

The stall owner was completely dumbfounded, his mouth agape, pointing at Su Xiaoxiao and stammering:

"You...you...you're a professional?"

He had this gun specially tuned by a master craftsman! It's impossible for an ordinary person to correct its trajectory!

As Su Xiaoxiao put her gloves back on, she said calmly:

"Boss, the rifling on this gun is almost worn down, the sights are practically useless. But thankfully, it still feels good to handle."

Lin Fan was also somewhat surprised. He stepped forward and asked curiously:

"Your marksmanship... has it been trained?"

Su Xiaoxiao scratched her head and smiled somewhat shyly:

"Um... I took a two-year leave of absence from school to serve two years of compulsory military service."

"After I was discharged from the army, I continued my studies and worked part-time on weekends to earn some living expenses."

She was a retired female soldier!

Lin Fan suddenly realized, and looking at the girl in front of him who was covered in sweat but had a bright smile, he felt a new respect for her.

No wonder she has such a tenacious spirit that refuses to give up.

"Wow! Big sister is amazing!"

Tuantuan hugged the strawberry bear, which was even bigger than her, and looked at Su Xiaoxiao with admiration. "Is big sister a heroine like Mulan?"

"Haha, I'm not a hero, I'm just an employee."

Su Xiaoxiao blushed from Tuantuan's praise, squatted down and pinched Tuantuan's little face, her eyes full of affection.

Lin Fan looked at Su Xiaoxiao's heavy and non-breathable mascot costume. Even after removing the headgear, the collar was still soaked with sweat.

Wearing this outfit all day in temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius would be unbearable even for someone with an iron body; no wonder I suffered heatstroke last time.

Lin Fan stepped forward, glanced calmly at the stall owner, and pointed to the strawberry bear hanging in the very center, a full two meters tall:

"A bet's a bet, so let's take the biggest one."

The stall owner's eyes darted around, and he trembled with heartache.

The original bear figurine cost several hundred yuan to buy, so this time not only did we not make any money, we even had to lose money!

He slammed his hand on the table and suddenly started acting like a cheat:

"Wait! That doesn't count!"

The stall owner pointed at Su Xiaoxiao, spitting as he spoke, and argued illogically:

"She's an employee here! Employees aren't allowed to participate in games for tourists! That's the rule! She cheated by abusing her position! This round doesn't count, your money is refunded, now get out of here!"

That shout made everyone around him laugh in exasperation.

"Oh my god! Have you no shame?"

"When that young girl was about to hit you, you didn't mention the rules and even mocked her for missing. Now that she's hit you, you're saying she's an employee?"

"Exactly! If you can't handle the consequences, don't set up a stall! Everyone's watching, you were the one who agreed to let this girl get hit!"

"We're not leaving until we get a prize! We'll film it and expose him!"

The crowd, with their sharp eyes, quickly gathered around and began pointing fingers and cursing at the stall owner.

Tuantuan got anxious too, her little mouth pouting: "Bad uncle! You didn't keep your promise! Shame on you!"

Looking at the agitated tourists and the numerous phone cameras raised by the crowd, the stall owner knew that if this matter escalated and was posted online, he would be out of business.

"Fine, fine! Here you go! I'll give it to you, okay?"

The stall owner gritted his teeth, his face contorted with pain, picked up the clothes rack, took the giant strawberry bear down, and slammed it heavily onto the counter.

"Take it, take it! Get out of here! This is the worst luck imaginable!"

Lin Fan reached out and took the giant strawberry bear.

This bear was so big! Tuantuan hugged it tightly, sinking into it completely, with only her little head sticking out. She happily rubbed against it.

"Wow! It's so soft! Thank you, Daddy! Thank you, Sister!"

The stall owner with the mustache next to them watched them chatting and laughing, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't swallow his anger.

He's been making dirty money by setting up a stall in this area for a long time. When has he ever suffered such a loss in silence?

He stared intently at Lin Fan and Su Xiaoxiao's retreating figures, a sinister glint in his eyes.

"Fine... you're going to sabotage my place, huh?"

"That traitorous brat, teaming up with outsiders to swindle me?"

The stall owner walked to the side, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed a number:

"Hey? Uncle? It's me, Gangzi! Yes! I'm at the amusement park! One of my part-time employees is a traitor, ganging up with tourists to smash up my stall! They're even causing trouble! You need to come right away!"

……

After walking a short distance from the shooting booth, Lin Fan looked at Su Xiaoxiao, whose face was flushed red and whose forehead was still dripping with sweat, and felt a little guilty.

"It's so hot. I'm so grateful to you for helping Tuantuan win this plush toy." Lin Fan pointed to a cold drink stall not far away.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get some ice cream to cool you down and take a break."

"No need, Mr. Lin!" Su Xiaoxiao quickly waved her hand in refusal. Although she secretly swallowed as she looked in the direction of the cold drink stall, she still said very seriously.

"I'm still on duty. According to the amusement park's rules, I can't leave my post without permission. I still need to hand out flyers."

"What time do you work? Be careful not to get heatstroke in such heavy clothes." Lin Fan frowned slightly.

"It's okay, I get off work at six o'clock this afternoon! Just hang in there a little longer."

Su Xiaoxiao laughed heartily, reaching out to pat the large strawberry bear in Tuantuan's arms. "As long as Tuantuan likes it, that's all that matters!"

"Thank you, little hero sister!" Tuantuan peeked out from behind the big bear and called out sweetly.

As the two were chatting, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure walking in the distance, and the smile on her face instantly froze.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and sporting a large, round beer belly. He was walking aggressively towards them, his expression extremely hostile.

"Oh no, it's our area supervisor..."
