Chapter 1823: Top Prize


    Chapter 1823: Top Prize


    On the other side, not far from the haunted house.


    Fair looked left and right at theing and going crowds, spaced out.


    Just then Justin came over with an ice cream for her, chocte chip cookie dough vored, topped


    with crushed peanuts.


    He handed it to Fair and asked, "What are you looking at?"


    Fair shook her head. "I seemed to glimpse a familiar figure just now. But there''s so many people, I


    probably saw wrong."


    More and more people gathered around the haunted house, it was the busiest time at the amusement


    park. With her height she basically couldn''t see anything beyond three meters.


    Justin smiled. "It''s your first time in Khebury. How could you run into someone you know? Eat your ice


    cream before it melts."


    "Okay." Fair epted the ice cream and took a big satisfying bite.


    "So delicious, thank you Uncle Henderson." She smiled, revealing two cute dimples. Although Justin


    had adopted her and gone through the formal procedures, they had agreed privately that she would still


    call him uncle.

    "Having fun? It''s about time we get going. I just came back to Khebury temporarily today to take care of


    some things. We need to catch the evening flight back to Mufron." Justin reminded.


    "Uncle Henderson, I''ve had lots of fun, thank you. I''m really happy." Fair was very sensible. Having the


    carefree life she did now was already a blessing from heaven.


    From birth she had never received warmth from elders, never hadpany, never received a single


    word of true care, never received a real education.


    She looked down at the exquisite, high-end pink dress she wore, the soft patent leather shoes, the


    name brand bag on her shoulder, and thetest high-tech phone that belonged to her.


    She had gone from a helpless orphan to a refined littledy.


    All this was bestowed upon her by Justin.


    "Let''s go." Justin smiled gently at Fair. Their elegant figures left the amusement park.


    Fair skipped along behind him, asionally ncing back. How strange, she really seemed to have


    seen Anderson just now. She pouted, it must have been her longing creating illusions.


    But it was fine. She had new motivation now.


    She would be the best version of herself and one day stand before Anderson again with a brand new


    image.


    They gradually went further away.


    On Anderson''s side, Joyce had brought him to the shooting games.


    The air guns at the amusement park were suitable for little kids, not real shooting ranges. Huge boards


    were covered in all kinds of colorful balloons. The rules were simple - pop thirty balloons to get the top


    prize of a huge stuffed animal. Next were the first, second, third prizes, and participation prize.


    After Luther paid, Joyce personally chose a gun.


    She tested the aim and found one with minimal deviation, handing it to Anderson.


    A nearby parent who had brought his around ten-year-old to y saw Anderson holding the gun and


    couldn''t helpughing. "Oh dear, isn''t he too young? His little hands probably can''t even pull the


    trigger."


    Another person said, "Just for fun, who expects to win prizes. Let the kid mess around, why butt in?"


    The first parent said, "But he can''t even reach the counter."


    "Your kid shoots pretty well. Popped over twenty, looks like he can get second prize."


    "Yeah, I always thought he had good aim since little."


    "Have you considered sending him for shooting lessons? Best to start young. Not forpetitions, but


    I heard it really helps with college applicationster. Mufron unis look most at extracurricrs."


    "Oh really, I''ll ask about itter."


    Joyce heard the side chatter but paid it no mind.


    She said to the boss, "Excuse me, could I get a little stool for the child to stand on?"


    The boss smiled obligingly. "Sure, just a moment."


    He turned and took a small stic stool from inside, handing it to Joyce.


    Joyce ced the stool on the ground and Anderson stepped on it, putting him at just the right height to


    shoot with his arms supported on the counter.


    Next, Joyce helped Anderson adjust the aim.


    "There, ready to start. Remember, aim thirty five degrees right one mark."


    "Got it Mom." Anderson earnestly started aiming. "I''ll definitely win the top prize for you."


    At this time the nearby parents started gossiping again. "Look at them acting all serious, thinking


    they''re pro shooters."


    Another said, "I know. The arrogance at such a young age. And the parents don''t stop it. Getting used


    to bragging since little, this kind of education is no good."


    "Exactly. Speaking of education, you''re the expert. Raised two kids into top unis. Everyone knows


    you''re very capable."


    "Oh stop. It was all the kids'' own efforts. I just tagged along randomly. But education must be grasped


    early."


    Luther stood silently at the side, listening to their chatter.


    Oblivious frogs in a well who had never seen true genius - that probably described this group.


    Anderson ignored the side talkpletely.


    He focused for a second, firmly pulled the trigger - "Bang bang!" - two consecutive shots burst two


    balloons instantly.


    The people around were stunned.


    "Wow, lucky kid."


    Then they saw Anderson calmly fire five consecutive shots - "Bang bang bang!" - bursting five more


    balloons.


    At this point the surroundings finally quieted. No one spoke anymore or gossiped.


    As Anderson precisely shot and burst twenty balloons in a row,


    more and more people gathered around to watch the spectacle, whispering amongst themselves.


    "I''m not seeing wrong right? He''s four at most but not even the national shooting team has someone so


    young. A genius!"


    "Don''t get distracted. Imagine it''s just you here alone." Joyce reminded Anderson. "Focus when


    shooting, unmoved like the ocean, block out all temptations. Your emotions cannot fluctuate at all,


    that''s the key."


    Anderson took a deep breath. He calmly fired the remaining ten shots one by one.


    Not a single miss. He precisely burst thest ten balloons. All thirty balloons popped, not one left. Top


    prize!


    Even the boss was dumbfounded.


    His first reaction was, "Little buddy, you already got the top prize. Wanna, wanna keep ying?"


    A genius, he had met a shooting genius today. He was especially worried - if this continued he would


    definitely lose money today.


    Anderson smiled modestly. "No more. The balloon targets are too big and simple. Boss, I want that


    teddy bear. Please take it down for me."


    "Sure." The boss let out an awkwardugh and quickly took down the top prize teddy bear. "Little bro


    you''re really amazing. All the years I''ve run this stall, never seen such a young kid get the top prize.


    Not just kids, even adults haven''t gotten it."


    Anderson hugged the teddy that was even taller than him and climbed down from the stool.


    At this time, he nced at the parent who had mocked him earlier.


    He stuffed the teddy into that parent''s arms. "Here, for you. Take it for your kid to y with."


    Having said that, he dusted his hands and turned to leave, back straight, arrogant expression.


    Joyce: "..."


    Luther: "..."


    That arrogance, presumptuous attitude, who did it resemble?
