With a click, Li Jinnian reloaded the magazine. He raised his head and saw Ye Jian disa.s.sembling the magazine. Beside her was a male soldier from Fuzhou with the codename ‘Big Salmon.’

He was saying to Ye Jian, “It was stuck. I almost missed the bullet.”

“There are many reasons why the bullet casing is stuck. Some of them are deformed due to the huge reaction force and can’t form a ‘casing’ normally. Some of them might be stuck because the first bullet was thrown in the wrong direction. Although this is rare, this is the problem with the gun’s casing.” UncleGen taught Ye Jian how to repair the gun, unload the gun, and inspect the barrel.

Now, what she said to her comrades was taught by Uncle Gen. From the day she touched the gun, Uncle Gen taught Ye Jian how to recognize guns, identify guns, measure guns, and unload them. He only started teaching her when she reached a certain level and could a.s.semble all kinds of guns with her eyes closed.

She took off the gun barrel and unloaded the barrel. Then, she released the small parts one by one, like a rebound force block, and then the front and back of the spring rail… Then, she released the automatic brake iron and took down the decelerator. Then, she found the crux of the problem.

Big Salmon was dumbfounded.

“Come, look at this. There’s no way to repair the sh.e.l.l. Let’s return the needle below to its original position. The sh.e.l.l will return to its original position automatically.” Ye Jian used the empty cartridge to move the thin, sharp, and extremely short needle. With a soft ‘dang’ sound, the sh.e.l.l returned to its original position.

Ye Jian smiled at him. Her face, which was covered with paint, was so gentle that it seemed to have a jade-like l.u.s.ter. “It’s fixed.”

“…She even knows how to fix guns.” Big Salmon stuttered. In the beginning, he really thought that she was joking. He didn’t expect her to really know how to fix guns.

“I know a little. I don’t need to use big tools to fix it.” Since the bad parts had been fixed, she needed to rea.s.semble the gun. After Ye Jian finished speaking, she had already installed the three parts. Her hand speed was so fast that Big Salmon’s eyelids were twitching.

Li Jinnian kept looking at her. He watched as she took over Big Salmon’s gun. As she spoke, she dismantled the gun skillfully. Then, she accurately found the problem and finished loading the gun in less than three minutes.

He lowered his head and looked at the time. It took… six minutes!

Ye Jian returned the rifle that had been repaired and said, “Don’t worry about getting stuck again. If there are any more problems, you can look for me.”

“You know how to fix a gun too?” Li Jinnian’s voice came from the side. When Ye Jian looked over, the tall and slender man was already sitting beside her. The paint was so thick that Ye Jian couldn’t see his face clearly. Only his sharp and cold eyes made Ye Jian feel familiar.

After changing into his combat uniform, Demon King Li looked even more imposing than usual. With heavy oil paint on his face, he seemed to have become another person.

Ye Jian, who had been hugging her a.s.sault rifle, nodded with a smile. “Normal problems can be solved. Some problems can be solved as long as you find them. The harder ones will take some time.”

“The army trained you meticulously.” Li Jinnian nodded slightly. Then, he said something that stunned Ye Jian.

“Join the navy?” Ye Jian was a little surprised. “Did the commander say that?
