Fishing Gives Me Ten Thousand Times Return: I Got The National Beauty On The First Day - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Caught a Gun

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

How was this a f*cking fish?

It was clearly a piece of iron!

To be exact, it was a gun!

At the same time, Ye Chen’s face turned red with anger when he saw the item hanging on the hook.

No wonder it was so heavy. So it was a pistol…

The system was so f*cking useless!

Upon seeing this, the audience in the live stream room was still divided into two groups.

The group consisting of Ye Chen’s old fans was laughing so hard that their muscles were about to cramp.

“I told you that with Mr. Ye’s superb skills, what he caught can’t possibly be a fish!”

“Did you guys see Mr. Ye’s expression just now? When he pulled the rod, he had been all smiles, but when he saw that it was a toy gun, his face turned black. Hahaha!”

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. He was even saying that it’s a big carp. So this is his big carp?”

“His performance is as ever. Mr. Ye is indeed amazing.”

…

In contrast, some of the audience found it boring.

How should they put it? It was indeed not very interesting for a fishing streamer to fish a toy gun out of the water.

If he was that good, he should catch a real fish!

Ye Chen’s mood was similar to everyone else’s.

He thought that he had finally caught a real fish, but unexpectedly, the fish hook would catch a pistol under the water and he would pull it up.

Ye Chen was depressed because he had not caught any fish.

As for the group of fishing pros, they were already used to it.

This time, no one cared about Ye Chen’s feelings. The group of people gathered around, and one of the more courageous ones even took the gun off the hook and played with it in his hand.

The minute the man picked up the gun, he panicked. “This… This, this, this seems to be a real thing!”

“The real thing??”

When he said this, everyone present instantly lost their calm.

Ye Chen was the same.

He quickly put down the fishing rod and took the pistol that he had caught.

As soon as he held it in his hand, Ye Chen could clearly feel that the gun was indeed very heavy.

That being said, he had already felt the weight when he pulled the rod just now.

The weight didn’t mean anything. Maybe it was a model gun made of metal?

Besides, the shape of the gun was very strange. It didn’t look like a modern gun. On the contrary, it looked like the pistols used during the Anti-Japanese War seen in TV dramas.

Of course, the most important thing was that although the gun looked very old and was quite rusty, it was not to the point of being covered in rust.

At this thought, Ye Chen clicked his tongue, “This… It can’t be real, right? I remember this pistol. It’s from the anti-Japanese era. What’s it called…”

An old man at the side immediately recognized the gun, “I think this pistol is called the bastard box. Because it was used by the bastard Japanese, it got the nickname of the bastard box. The quality of this gun was very poor, so it was eliminated not long after. Seyves Reservoir was indeed a base during the Anti-Japanese War in history. It’s possible that such a gun appeared here.”

“Something’s wrong…” Ye Chen shook his head and rejected that explanation. “According to the time, it should’ve almost been a hundred years by now. If the gun was soaked in water, I’m afraid it would have long decayed beyond recognition.”

“Yet, this gun doesn’t look like it has stayed in the water for that long. Looking at the rust on it, I guess it has only been in the water for a few years. Looking at its fully metal model… After all, a gun isn’t like other things. Hey, do you only know that it’s called a bastard box? Does anyone know the full name of this gun?”

For a moment, even Ye Chen could not be sure if the gun was real or not.

After all, he didn’t understand such things!

At the same time, the few old men around him were all talking at the same time, but none of them fully understood the item either.

At this moment, a pair of small, fair hands reached over and took the gun from Ye Chen’s hands.

With a crisp “click”, the sleeve was pulled.

“This is the Japanese’s type 16 pistol. The caliber is 9.9mm. The gun is 20 centimeters long and weighs about 1 kg. It can release nine rounds and has an effective range of 70 meters. It was developed by Japan in the 16th year of the Emperor then and was named the Nambu Pistol.”

“Because this gun model was modified from the old generation of bastard boxes, it’s very rare and not commonly seen. The large caliber of the Nambu Pistol also gave it the nickname of the hand-smash cannon. Since Seyves Reservoir had been a base of the Anti-Japanese War, it is only normal for this hand-cannon cannon to be here. This is indeed a real gun. It’s loaded and can still be used!”

This time, Ye Chen could not help but be dumbfounded.

Not only had he just heard that the gun was real, but the most important thing was that the person who explained it to everyone was… Liao Xuexue!

That’s right!

It was Liao Xuexue, Mr. Liao’s granddaughter, who was holding the gun!

To think a sweet and cute girl understood weapons so well.

Not only did she understand the gun, but she even smoothly pulled the barrel of the gun.

Ye Chen suspected that if she was given a bullet, she could even kill him!

This contrast made Ye Chen very surprised.

Ye Chen was not the only one surprised. The old men around him were also looking at this sweet little girl in shock.

Perhaps she noticed everyone’s surprised gazes. Liao Xuexue quickly returned the gun in her hand to Ye Chen.

The expression on her face had changed from full of confidence to a hint of shyness.

She lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes, then said in a low voice, “Umm… I study history, so I’m quite interested in some of the historical items. Weapons are one of them.”

The corners of Ye Chen’s eyes twitched. He looked at Liao Xuexue and said, “You… Have you ever touched a real gun?”

“Yes, a little.” Liao Xuexue nodded slowly.

The smile on Ye Chen’s face suddenly froze.

He could tell from Liao Xuexue’s gun-holding posture that this girl hadn’t just touched a real gun “a little”. She was obviously very familiar with it, okay?

She probably went to the shooting range a lot.

Moreover, if she didn’t have a certain level of understanding of the structure of a gun, she definitely wouldn’t have pulled the barrel of the pistol as familiarly as she had just done.

After figuring this out, Ye Chen only felt that the gun in his hand was a little troublesome.

“Well… Is it a real gun?”

“Yes, it’s a real gun.” Liao Xuexue nodded.

The corner of Ye Chen’s eyes twitched. He asked in confusion, “If it’s a real gun, it must have a long history. But since it’s been in the water for so long, it should be pretty much corroded. Why doesn’t this gun look like it?”
