Chapter 419 - 419 Dart
419 Dart
After Ye Xuan and the rest walked into the park, they looked around. They were not interested in dancing and skateboarding. Then, they wandered into the amus.e.m.e.nt market.
Looking at the lively and interesting games, Ye Fei and Ye Chan’s bodies trembled and their eyes lit up.
Then, they walked along the stalls and looked around, planning to find some interesting games to play.
After walking for a while, the three of them walked to a stall where they could shoot balloons with darts.
Seeing that she could obtain a doll, Ye Fei’s interest was piqued. She pulled Ye Xuan and Ye Chan to a stop.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan looked at the apple-sized red balloons on the wall and spoke.
“Can you do it, Fifth Sister? It’s quite difficult to control darts.”
Ye Fei rolled her eyes and said confidently, “Little Brother, you’re underestimating my skills. I’m a veteran.”
“I don’t believe you. Guns are fine, but you can forget about darts.”
Ye Xuan had a look of disbelief on his face as he pouted and muttered.
Ye Fei was silent for a moment. She snorted and didn’t say anything. Then, she waved at the boss.
“Boss, how much are the darts?”
“They’re five for 10 yuan. I suggest you buy 50 at once. You can have a better gaming experience and have fun. You can even get a 10% discount.”
The boss was an old man with a white beard. He had an amiable smile on his face. As he spoke, he placed a WeChat QR code in front of Ye Fei and continued.
“How many do you want to buy? Do you want to use cash or WeChat?”
Ye Fei thought about it and took out her phone to scan the QR code, “In that case, give me 100. With a 10% discount, it’s 180 yuan, right? It’s already sent.”
The boss looked at his cell phone, then took out a few large darts from a bamboo frame on his back and placed them in front of Ye Fei.
He explained, “If you hit 20 balloons, you can exchange them for a doll over there. If you hit more than five, you can exchange them for a small gift. If you can hit all 500 balloons, I’ll give you this stall.”
The surrounding people and Ye Fei and Ye Chan were amused by the boss’s humor. They teased him for a while before continuing with their actions.
Ye Fei picked up the dart with her hand and tossed it. She looked sharply at the balloon wall a few meters in front of her and spoke confidently.
“Watch me carefully, Little Brother. I’ll show you what skills are!”
With that, she grabbed the dart and threw it over.
In the end, she didn’t even throw the dart straight. It hit the wall horizontally, worlds apart from the balloon.
Ye Fei scoffed. She grabbed a handful of darts and threw a few more. In the end, none of them hit the balloons. They didn’t even hit the target board. They lay on the ground in a mess.
When Ye Xuan and Ye Chan saw this scene, they burst out laughing, making Ye Fei’s face darken. She looked aggrieved.
Then, she sighed and said, “This is so difficult. It’s different from what I used to play. It’s too difficult to control.”
Then, she looked down at Ye Xuan and probed, “Little Brother, do you want to try throwing darts?”
“It’s so simple. I don’t want to play. It’s boring.”
Ye Xuan spread his hands in disdain.
Ye Fei pursed her lips and smiled. She used a joking and provocative tone.
“Little Brother, I’m so big, but I can’t even throw darts. You’re so small, yet you still say it’s simple. You’re a little brat, but you’re good at bragging. Why don’t you show me your skills?”
Ye Xuan naturally understood what she meant, but he didn’t show it. He smiled at her and said, “Fifth Sister, isn’t it normal for you to miss?”
Ye Fei was speechless.
Ye Chan covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this. She lay on Ye Fei’s shoulder and trembled.
At this moment, Ye Xuan went forward, picked up the dart, and spoke to Ye Fei.
“Fifth Sister, do you really want a doll?”
Ye Fei was stunned when she saw how Ye Xuan picked up the dart. She didn’t say anything and nodded to express her stance.
When Ye Xuan heard this, he went forward and pushed Ye Fei away. He stood on the dart throwing platform and looked experienced as he explained.
“For non-professional plastic darts like this, you have to use your index finger and thumb to pinch the area one inch above the head of the dart. You have to use your waist to lift your body and use your elbows to a.s.sist in exerting force. Your wrist is the main place that exerts force. Only then can you hit accurately.”
“Moreover, because it’s made of plastic, it’s very light. It will also be affected by the airflow during flight. Therefore, in terms of angle, it must not be facing the balloon in the center of the target. It has to be offset by about two inches.”
“If you follow this method to throw darts, although it can’t be said to have a 100% success rate, the success rate is at least more than 90%.”
Ye Fei listened to Ye Xuan’s speech and was stunned. He was like a gaming G.o.d explaining the strategy to a newbie who had just entered the game. His way of speaking was interesting, professional, and strict.
The people throwing darts at the side couldn’t help but smile when they heard Ye Xuan’s words. They teased him.
“Look at this little kid. It sounds like he’s always throwing darts.”
“I can’t even think of these words. It suddenly reminds me of how I was abused by a child while playing The King of Fighters in the gaming hall some time ago.”
“You still have to start from a child to throw darts. Look, this is called professional rigor. His theories are well-structured and every sentence is reasonable.”
“Haha, little children often throw darts to play, right? From what I’ve heard, he’s a veteran darts player. He even came up with a strategy.”
“I’m stunned. This is the first time I’ve heard of such a professional.”
Hearing everyone’s teasing, Ye Fei pursed her lips and smiled at Ye Xuan.
“Little Brother, how many times have you thrown darts? You’re already experienced an so professional. Is that okay?”
Ye Xuan waved his hand and said seriously, “No, I don’t usually play this. This is the first time I’ve thrown it. What I said just now was a summary of my experience when I saw you throw darts.”
Ye Fei originally thought that Ye Xuan was trained, but when she heard this, she was instantly speechless. It turned out that he was just good at talking. She sighed in her heart and thought, “Return my admiration to me!”
Many people at the side laughed when they heard Ye Xuan’s words. They didn’t have much hope when they saw him throwing darts.
Just now, after listening to Ye Xuan’s professional explanation, they thought that this child was very powerful. Now, it seemed that he was just an armchair strategist. He was the theoretical type who was good at talking.
In terms of words, everyone could say a few sentences regardless of their skill level. The difficult thing was to unite knowledge and actions.
Ye Xuan heard the sneers of the people around him and didn’t care. The best way to prove words was to put it into practice. He knew it very well.
Hence, he picked up a plastic dart and gestured with his hand. Then, he aimed at the balloon on the target.
A moment later, he exerted strength in his wrist and the dart shot out like a bolt of lightning.
When the surrounding people saw this scene, their hearts skipped a beat. Their palms were covered in sweat. They all wanted to see if this child could win.
