Seeing that the time is almost up, there should be no possibility of finding him temporarily. So Pu Yingrui changed her clothes and came out of the house.
Soon, he drove into a small alley twenty minutes away from his home. After getting off the car, I walked for another ten minutes. We entered a small courtyard that didn't look too good. This is a backup safe house he prepared for himself.
And this house, when he took it, had a vegetable cellar. In fact, this kind of vegetable cellar is mostly used by northern residents to store some ingredients for winter. Shanghai is not completely lacking. After all, these days are not as rich in supplies as in later generations. You can eat whatever you want anytime, anywhere. In this era, if you want to spend the winter, it is also quite cold here in Shanghai. Ingredients are naturally very precious in winter.
And with a vegetable cellar, Pu Yingrui turned it into a small basement. There is a solid wood manhole cover on top, and there is a large thick quilt on top of the manhole cover. Even if there is a loud sound inside, it cannot get out. This was the first thing Pu Yingrui thought about the issue of the gun after he received it.
When they came to the small courtyard, Pu Yingrui looked at the manhole cover at the entrance of the cellar. Well, the big quilt was still there. However, to be on the safe side, he still entered the house, brought out another quilt, and wrapped the manhole cover again. In this way, there are two large quilts. Moreover, the quilt is not for a single person, so it needs to be folded in half again. This way, the top side will be thicker and more soundproof.
Looking at the manhole cover wrapped by himself, Pu Yingrui stepped forward and stood on the ladder below. Then move it with your hands to cover the manhole cover. Then, he reached the bottom in the dark. I took a flashlight from the side and lit it. It was okay, the battery was still charged.
He walked to the end with a flashlight. In fact, it's not that far in total. Although there was a vegetable cellar originally, he was renovating the basement alone. If he wanted to make it bigger, it would increase the amount of work. Therefore, what he can change is limited. You can only take four steps in total. This had already kept him busy for almost a month. Moreover, after the renovation, the supports were all made of wooden squares, and the four walls were not made of masonry. This is already considered simple.
Pu Yingrui came to the innermost place, picked up a stone block on the ground, and drew several concentric circles on the earthen wall. Then I looked back, at the far end. Well, it’s only four meters high. But it's okay, originally this kind of gun has no barrel or rifling bonus after the bullet is fired. So the power is actually pretty good if it's further away, but it's a little bit shaky. In other words, the power is okay, but the accuracy is not.
Pu Yingrui walked back again and stood at the end. Make a base out of stones for the flashlight, place one end on the ground and the other on the stone. In this way, the tilt can illuminate the innermost concentric circles I just drew on the wall.
Then Pu Yingrui took out the pen gun and the small box. First, carefully unscrew the pen and put the loaded explosive warhead bullet inside into your pocket. Then he put another round of ordinary bullets he brought in and screwed it in carefully again. Then, he pointed the pen tip at the concentric circles. There was no rush, he needed to find accuracy, so he aimed patiently. After making sure you have your aim, hold the pen very steadily in your left hand. Quickly twist the back end of the pen with your right hand.
There was a cracking sound from the pen, and almost at the same time there was a louder chirping sound. The bullet was fired immediately. Pu Yingrui had been staring at the wall opposite, so he saw accurately. In an instant, there was a small hole in the fifth circle from the inside to the outside, that is, the fifth circle to the lower left of the center.
Um? First of all, the sound is very good, quite low. The crackling sound was almost as loud as the crackling sound made by setting off some firecrackers and lighting the firecrackers. When the bullet's primer caught fire, it made a hissing sound, although it was higher. But at most it's about as loud as the most common kind of scratchy throat followed by clearing the throat.
This is a pretty good phenomenon. After all, the bullets are simply fired, not a professional pistol. When the pistol is fired and the primer is ignited, it will generate high temperature and thrust in the gun chamber, and then a breath will be ejected from the muzzle, naturally making a loud sound. But this pen gun is different. It has no barrel, and does not have the force of a high-temperature spray. It only relies on bullets to be fired directly without passing through the barrel of the gun. Naturally the sound will be very small.
Of course, there is a price, that is, you will definitely lose part of your power. And the biggest problem is that it is not accurate enough. His aim was obviously very accurate. Although the pen does not have a special aiming rear sight or front sight. But when I aimed it, I could see clearly that the pen was definitely kept in a straight state with the center of the concentric circles, and my hand was careful enough when twisting it, without any obvious trembling. But even so, if the distance is as close as four meters, there will be a deviation of nearly half a foot. If it were further away, the bullet might actually fly to nowhere.
In fact, the lipstick gun and the current pen gun have the same purpose. That is, for shooting at very close distances. For example, in the use of the lipstick gun, a woman approaches a man, takes out her lipstick, and smiles, which is a bit like throwing herself into his arms. Then he suddenly twists the lipstick gun. In fact, the distance is very close, or he directly hits the other person's chest. Or it's almost close to body, shooting from about a fist away. Of course, this is an example, and it still depends on the specific situation. But this thing itself was invented to be used at ultra-close range or close to the body. If it can be shot accurately at a long distance, then it is really haunted.
Pu Yingrui was not in a hurry. He cleared the bottom of the pen. Below it was a base that rubbed against the sand surface. If it is not cleaned in time, if there is too much burning residue of gunpowder on it, it will become malfunctioning when trying to catch fire. So after he cleaned it up, he poured a small layer of gunpowder again, and then fired a new bullet as usual.
Then he didn't adjust the distance and still stood there. This time, he aimed more steadily and fired the second shot. Sure enough, it's really hairy. Still not sure. But the good news is that this second shot was fired near the place where the first shot hit, and the edges of the two craters already overlapped somewhat. Explain this...
