Chapter 29 Trolls (seeking reading)

Big 5 Sporting Goods is a sports goods chain established in 1955.

From Nike Adidas to Ferra Bear Paw New Balance, almost all sports brands have set up counters here.

Ethan in his previous life often visited here because he could match a sports suit if he spent a hundred or two hundred dollars.

But Evelyn brought him here today, but she didn't buy him clothes and pick shoes.

After entering the store, the girl headed straight towards the hunting showcase.

Then, stored in the window, the dazzling array of guns appeared in Ethan's sight.

The next second he even heard the girl say, "Hello? Is anyone? I need to take the Firearm Safety Certification exam."

Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged white man, who was big and thick, stood up from behind the counter.

"Who's the exam?" He looked at Evelyn first, then turned his eyes to Ethan. "The exam cost ten dollars, you can take it twice. If it doesn't work, you can take it again in 24 hours."

"Okay." Evelyn took out ten dollars from her handbag, handed it to the other party, and pointed at Ethan, "He took the exam."

Firearm Safety Certification, referred to as FSC, is a firearm safety certificate in California law. Anyone who purchases or owns a firearm must undergo this assessment. As long as you answer 23 of the thirty questions correctly, you can get the certificate, and the validity period is five years.

In fact, when Ethan saw that Evelyn got off the car and ran towards the five major gun areas, he had already guessed what the girl wanted to do. After Ethan called out the coach and shouted that I wanted to play basketball, no, it was because I wanted to take the gun test, Ethan's face even smiled.

"Oh, Evelyn..." Ethan shouted out his sister's name.

However, before he could finish his words, Evelyn interrupted: "Don't refuse."

"Didn't you say before that you were threatened when buying materials?"

"Although California has strict management of guns, to be honest, San Francisco is still too messy. It's still good to have a gun in this ghost place, so... just treat it as a gift for me to give you a celebration game sold?"

"Wow~I like this gift!"

Ethan nodded with a smile and said, "And, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to refuse just now."

"I'm just... very happy."

That's right, when Ethan saw the guns of various shapes on the display cabinet, the corners of his mouth almost raised to his ears!

Because he wanted to touch a gun in his previous life!

But at that time he was getting a long-term visa, and it was very troublesome to get a gun photo with a visa in that ghost place in New York.

So I haven't gotten the chance.

But now it’s different. Although California’s gun-holding laws are so strict that it’s painful, he is the old Washington star-stripe banner at this moment, right?

Without the limitation of identity, it is easy to touch a gun!

The FSC assessment is also very simple, with only judging questions and multiple-choice questions. The content of the test questions can be measured by the intelligence of the third grade of elementary school.

Because the structure of a firearm can be distinguished by just understanding the words, and the way to use is even simpler. The only safety question that may be difficult is all about - "Is the gun with a safe device 100% insurance?", "Is it legal to shoot a gun in the sky?" and other questions that cannot be more obvious.

As long as there is a bit of a normal logic, and not like some gods, insisting that the earth is flat, you will definitely know that nothing in this world is absolute, so the insurance device is not 100% insured.

Since the teacher asked you whether it was legal to shoot at the sky, this matter must be illegal.

Hey, the main focus is a rebellion!

Ah no, it's anti-logic!

Therefore, after Ethan received half an hour of written training, he only took ten minutes to finish the exam with full marks and obtained the FSC certificate on the spot.

Then, he showed his driver's license and his own vehicle registration card, and filled out a questionnaire at the request of the counter staff.

After drawing a series of questions such as whether he had committed a crime, whether he had a drunk driving record, whether he had been arrested by law enforcement, whether he had used psychotropic drugs or elixirs, Ethan then chose a shotgun worth 350 US dollars, Remington 870.

Then Ethan and Evelyn returned home empty-handed.

That’s right, the first time I bought a gun in California, I needed a background check.

The staff at the gun shop will hand over the information to the California Department of Justice and Ferber to ensure that your information meets the standards and is true and effective. This process takes ten days, so the fastest, that is, the eleventh day, can you get the gun.

But this doesn't matter, right?

When the FSC has already passed the exam, the countdown to ten days is simply a flash!

Uh... OK...

Ethan admitted that the past ten days have been very painful.

Because when he thought of having a gun, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep.

So much so that on the morning of the tenth day, when he went to Wuda to get the gun, he directly put a panda's eye on him.

But when the heavy shotgun got started, he felt that the waiting was worth it.

I couldn't wait to arrive at the shooting range in San Jose and slapped a twenty-sized knife on the boss's desk.

He hired a personal trainer to teach himself to shoot.

Although the Remington 870 trolley has no sight or ruler, it is really easy to get started.

No matter whether it is a shoulder or a waist shot, it is easy to aim with a 18.4 bullet. Just pull the trigger to the approximate position of the target.

With a loud bang, the wooden board ten meters away flew directly! The watermelon from twenty meters away rotted directly! The plastic bucket from thirty meters away suddenly cracked! There were bullet holes on the steel board forty meters away!

Such power really made Ethan love it.

Touching the black gun body, Ethan decided to bring this thing with him as long as he went out in the future.

‘Special code! If someone threatens me in the future, I will take out this big guy! Ask if those stupid guys want to be Yongle or the prince!’

However, when he thought that he was shooting targets and was still a little different from the actual strike, when he returned home again, he discussed with Thomas whether he should organize a family gathering.

For example, go to the surrounding hunting grounds to hunt?

Thomas can understand Ethan's pleasure in obtaining a new toy, but at the same time-

"Ethan, I have to go to the orchard every day. I really can't take time. Why don't you go and play by yourself?" Thomas suggested with a little toothache.

"Oh Thomas! What are you talking about! This family cannot be without you!" Ethan continued to invite.

Evelyn also expressed her agreement, "Dad, I think Ethan is right."

"Aren't you tired of going to the orchard every day? Take a proper day off and give yourself a vacation."

"Yes, you're busy every day, and it's time to take a break." Linda also felt that it was good. "The workers we hired all adhere to the eight-hour work system. Why do you, a boss, still have to stay all year round?"

Seeing that his wife, daughter and nephew had reached a united front, Thomas couldn't find any reason.

"Okay, I'll think about it, give me some time, I'll go and communicate with the Fishing and Hunting Bureau to see where there are some suitable places for hunting recently."

"The wild boar and the black bear are too fierce, just... the deer and the antelope..."

"Oye~" Ethan cheered first, "Thomas, I love you!"

"Okay, okay~" Thomas nodded slightly, as if he had accepted Ethan's love, and said to his wife: "Linda, if you want to hunt, please take care of the hunting test. Although you will get through 80 questions correctly, you have to fill up the offline training time yourself."

"Okay, Okay, I'll go." Linda nodded with a smile.

As the matter was confirmed, the house was filled with a sense of happiness.

However, just as Ethan was ready for the upcoming family gathering, on the evening of April 30, Steve Jobs suddenly visited.

His arrival also delayed the Johnson family's party plan.

Because after turning off the motorcycle, Steve Jobs smiled and said to Ethan: "Ethan, at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, Nolan will introduce "Snake Game" to the invited merchants in Atari's factory."

"After I fought for it, he agreed to let me introduce the product on stage as the main speaker."
