This scene made Yang Zi, Bai Lu, and several other female guests, who were not far away, incredibly envious.
They all thought that after Gu Lina Zha finished her experience, they would also be able to enjoy such attentive and meticulous one-on-one instruction from Instructor Lu.
However, when Gu Lina Zha finished her training to her heart's content, their fantasy was shattered.
Lu Mingyu did not walk over as they had expected.
Instead, he turned around and took out several strangely shaped metal stands from a nearby equipment box.
He installed the remaining pistols and rifles one by one onto these stands.
These stands, called gun-locking mechanisms, could firmly fix the gun body, with the muzzle always pointing towards the firing range.
"Alright, come over here. Next, we'll do fixed shooting practice," Lu Mingyu clapped his hands and said to the other female guests, his tone returning to its previous cold and professional demeanor.
"This gun-locking mechanism can help you fix your firearms and get familiar with the feeling of shooting."
"At the same time, it can also guarantee maximum safety."
"It prevents the muzzle from turning due to nervousness or operational errors, leading to accidental injury."
The female guests exchanged glances, their expressions somewhat subtle.
The difference in treatment was too obvious.
Why could Gu Lina Zha get hands-on, embrace-style instruction from Instructor Lu?
But when it was their turn, they could only use such cold, impersonal equipment for auxiliary practice?
Everyone felt a bit unfair.
Yang Zi frowned and whispered to Bai Lu next to her.
"I don't believe it's really just for demonstration. Who demonstrates for so long?"
Bai Lu also nodded in deep agreement.
"Yeah, it feels strange. Instructor Lu's attitude towards Naza is clearly different from his attitude towards us."
"You guys say, are they two..."
A female guest next to them lowered her voice, just about to voice her guess.
Just then, the head instructor not far away glanced at his watch and shouted loudly.
"Everyone, practice stops here for now. Get ready; it's time to eat."
Hearing the instruction to eat, everyone temporarily stopped discussing the matter and put down the firearms in their hands.
At 11:00 AM, the morning's shooting training officially concluded.
After Lu Mingyu arranged the follow-up matters, he had the female guests proceed to the cafeteria first.
He himself strode with long legs directly to the viewing platform, arriving next to Lu Wei.
"Grandpa," he respectfully called out.
Lu Wei looked at his grandson with satisfaction.
He then glanced at Gu Lina Zha, who was walking towards the cafeteria, chatting and laughing with Yang Zi and the others, and asked,
"Is that girl named Gu Lina Zha the girlfriend you mentioned?"
"Mm," Lu Mingyu nodded.
"She looks good, very pretty, and has good spirit," Lu Wei commented.
"I had someone look into it; she's an actress in the entertainment industry."
"Her family background is clean, nothing messy, and she's worthy of our Lu family."
Lu Mingyu felt relieved hearing his grandpa's words, and then directly asked,
"Then, Grandpa, after this filming mission ends, I'll bring her home. We want to get our marriage certificate. Do you agree?"
Lu Wei glanced at him, as if looking at an impatient young man.
He waved his hand, a smile on his face.
"I have no objections. It's your young people's business; just decide for yourselves."
"Let's go to the cafeteria and talk while we eat."
The Military Region cafeteria was spacious and bright, and a long queue had already formed in front of the serving windows.
Lu Mingyu and Lu Wei did not join the crowd.
Instead, Lu Wei's assistant served their meals and brought them to a quiet corner of the cafeteria.
It was very quiet here, convenient for the grandfather and grandson to talk.
The two sat opposite each other, with a simple four dishes and one soup on the table.
Lu Wei did not pick up his chopsticks first.
Instead, he took out a document from his briefcase and pushed it in front of Lu Mingyu.
On the kraft paper cover of the document, a line of striking bold characters was printed:
"Final Decision on the Site Selection for the J-35A Fighter Jet Extreme Performance Test."
Lu Mingyu's eyes narrowed slightly.
The J-35A is the nation's newest generation of stealth carrier-based fighter jet.
It represents the current cutting-edge aviation technology in the country, and its importance is self-evident.
He knew that Wu Tianlong from his team was responsible for developing a new set of fighter simulation combat systems.
But that was ultimately at the simulation level.
Actual machine tests for a national strategic asset like the J-35A have an extremely high level of secrecy.
It was impossible for them to be related to the Megakaryocyte Special Operations Group.
Grandpa specifically showed him this document; it was definitely not simple information sharing.
Lu Mingyu understood. He put down his chopsticks, raised his head, and looked directly at Lu Wei.
"Grandpa, what do you need me to do?" he asked straightforwardly.
Lu Wei looked at him approvingly, appreciating his grandson's straightforward character.
He pointed at the document bag with his finger and said in a deep voice,
"This time, the extreme test site for the J-35A, after extensive exploration and research, was finally selected in Yunnan."
Upon hearing the words "Yunnan," Lu Mingyu's brows instantly furrowed.
"Yunnan?" he repeated, his tone clearly questioning.
"Grandpa, that place is too complicated. Is there an alternative location?"
Lu Wei shook his head.
Lu Mingyu continued, speaking quickly and clearly.
"Yunnan borders Myanmar, with an intricate border. Most of the area consists of deep mountains and old forests, with extremely complex terrain."
"More importantly, it's an area with historical issues."
"There are large numbers of unexploded bombs and landmines from wartime buried in the mountains, making clearance extremely difficult."
"This environment is simply a paradise for those cross-border criminal gangs and drug traffickers."
He paused, then added a more impactful statement.
"Our Megakaryocyte Special Operations Group has carried out more than one clearance mission in that area."
"But those people are like weeds; they can't be burned out and regrow with the wind, extremely rampant."
Lu Wei's expression became serious, and he sighed.
"There is no alternative; only this one place can meet all the test conditions."
"It's precisely because the situation is complex that I came to you."
"According to intelligence, several foreign forces have already set their sights on our J-35A technology and want to make a move during this test."
Lu Wei's gaze became sharp. He stared at his grandson, as if testing him, and also as if seeking advice.
"From your professional perspective, if they really make a move, how should we respond?"
Lu Mingyu did not answer immediately but instead asked in return,
"Which unit is responsible for the ground security work for this test?"
"Is it Wolf Fang?"
"Exactly, it's the Wolf Fang Special Operations Brigade of the First Military Region," Lu Wei confirmed.
Lu Mingyu pondered for a moment, then gave his assessment.
"Wolf Fang is an undisputed ace unit."
"Their individual combat capability and execution of conventional tactics are top-notch in the entire Military Region."
"However," he changed the subject, pointing out the core of the problem.
"They lack actual combat experience against foreign forces, especially those professional mercenaries."
"Those people have fought their way through battlefields all over the world."
"Their methods are ruthless and they stop at nothing. Wolf Fang's soldiers are very likely to suffer losses against them."
Lu Wei nodded, signaling him to continue.
"Besides Wolf Fang, how many other support units do we have available along the border?" Lu Mingyu pressed.
