The Gun Magician

In the early morning, the air was still a little chilly, and even though the sun shone down from the sky and illuminated the streets, the temperature was still a bit low.

It's already quite late autumn.

Winter will arrive soon.

Meanwhile, the students of the Armed Detective High School were already wearing their winter uniforms, which changed the appearance of the campus and gave it a slightly novel feel.

Of course, it's not just the environment that's new, but also the people.

After a year's hiatus, Armed Detective High School welcomed a new semester, welcoming many new students and adding a fresh look to the school.

Presumably, just like back then, there must be quite a few freshmen today who are busy with entrance exams.

Especially for the Assault Department, if, like a year ago, the entrance exam still involves fighting with classmates from the same major, then today would be an absolute nightmare for some.

However, that had little to do with Fang Li now that Fang Li the second year of high school.

At least, the situation where several freshmen received S-Class ratings during the entrance exam, as happened a year ago, will definitely not happen again this time, right?

Moreover, although there is no entrance exam, there is still an opening ceremony today.

Therefore, Fang Li has no connection with the affairs of this year's freshmen.

In light of this, Fang Li is fast asleep.

Right in my own dormitory room.

"Buzz... buzz..."

In his sleep, Fang Li heard a vibration, which woke his somewhat groggy mind.

Upon opening his eyes, Fang Li immediately saw his phone vibrating on the bedside table.

"A text message?"

Fang Li yawned, lifted the covers, turned on his phone from the bedside table, and started checking it.

Just as Fang Li had predicted, he was woken up by a text message.

Moreover, the sender's name was already familiar to Fang Li.

Fang Li smiled helplessly, got up, went to the window, drew back the curtains, and looked out at the street outside the dormitory.

There, a girl in a uniform stood against the wind, her long, straight, jet-black hair flying in the breeze; she was very beautiful.

Who else could it be but Shirayuki Hoshigami?

"Ah..."

Perhaps seeing Fang Li appear by the window, Shirayuki Hoshigami turned her head and met Fang Li's gaze. Immediately afterward, a dazzling smile appeared on her exquisitely beautiful face.

That smile, both beautiful and gentle, was enough to make any man's heart flutter.

Therefore, even Fang Li couldn't help but smile slightly, made a "wait a moment" gesture, and then began to wash up.

It took Fang Li ten minutes to finish washing up and come out of the dormitory building.

"Sorry, Shirayuki." Fang Li approached Shirayuki Hoshigami and said, "I've kept you waiting."

"That's not true." Shirayuki Hoshigami shook her head and said softly, "Because Ri-kun has never been late and has always been punctual."

"That's because you come here to wait for me every morning and send me a text message to wake me up on time," Fang Li said, scratching his cheek. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have the confidence to get up early."

"Really?" Shirayuki Hoshigami said shyly but also happily, "I'm glad I could help you."

And so, Fang Li and Shirayuki Hoshigami started chatting in front of the dormitory.

The extremely natural dialogue and the seamless Matoba told others that the relationship between the two had made rapid progress compared to before.

But that's not something hard to understand.

A year has passed since then, and Fang Li and Shirayuki Hoshigami have both moved up to the second year and are no longer freshmen.

And during that year, their relationship, as mentioned earlier, developed rapidly.

In order to help this young lady, who was even more sheltered than a young lady from a wealthy family and had never been outside before and knew nothing about the outside world, adapt to school life, Fang Li dragged Shirayuki Hoshigami around everywhere during this year.

After all, Fang Li himself had just arrived in this world at that time and was still curious about many things. In order to familiarize himself with the environment, he naturally had to run around. He just occasionally thought of Shirayuki Hoshigami and took this kind and beautiful girl with him.

Over time, Fang Li and Shirayuki Hoshigami's relationship naturally progressed rapidly. They not only started calling each other by name, but also, starting from the second semester of their first year, they often went to school together like this.

Therefore, Shirayuki Hoshigami no longer had the Yuiyui and cautious demeanor she used to have towards Fang Li.

Fang Li isn't the type to fuss over details, so to others, their relationship seemed like that of neighbors who had known each other since childhood.

"It's almost time." Fang Li glanced at the time on his phone and said to Shirayuki Hoshigami, "Let's go to school."

"Hmm." Shirayuki Hoshigami nodded, then reminded him somewhat in a cautionary tone, "Ri-kun, do you have your pistol with you? You didn't forget it in the dorm, did you?"

Fang Li smiled slightly, flicked his wrist, and a Glock pistol appeared in his hand. He twirled it gracefully between his fingers, and then it suddenly disappeared.

The scene made Shirayuki Hoshigami clasp her hands together and exclaim in admiration, "Li-kun's skills are still as good as ever, like magic. No one knows when you draw your gun, when you put it away, or even where the gun is. You're really amazing."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li shrugged and said, "Those are just some minor tricks, don't worry about them."

For Fang Li, this was indeed just a minor tactic.

Because Fang Li simply took Glock out of the Black Ring's space and put it back.

However, this move made Fang Li quite famous within that year.

When Fang Li was conducting armed reconnaissance activities, his opponents often didn't even know when Fang Li drew his gun or when he fired it, and were defeated without even realizing it, becoming his Fang Li.

So, over time, Fang Li earned the title of "Gun Magician" in the world of armed detectives. In addition, as S-Rank Armed Detective, he was quite famous even though he was just a student.

Unfortunately, no one knew that Fang Li's marksmanship was just a minor tactic; his true strength had never been revealed.

No matter which country you're in, opening ceremonies are always a boring affair.

However, Shirayuki became the Student Council President of the Armed Detective High School this year, which requires her to give a speech on stage.

Therefore, as the only person Shirayuki could call a friend in the Armed Detective High School, Fang Li naturally had to go and support her.

So, the two arrived at the Armed Detective High School and walked towards the gymnasium while chatting.

Just then, a voice called out to Fang Li.

"Oh? Isn't this Fang Li?"
