Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 741 Molly's Rebirth (Part One)

Give time some time; let the past be past; let what to be started restart.

Across the vast lawn and hill, the faint heat released from the summer sunlight was mixed with the grass's fresh scent. "Thud..." the loud sound of loading a pistol broke through the silence, making the atmosphere seem oppressing.

Molly took a step forward as she placed her left foot ahead. Her body leaned forward slightly and her legs too bent, indicating her idea of running. She held the pistol in her right hand, while her left hand was supporting the other wrist from weighing down. The serious concentration reflecting in her eyes as she looked ahead reflected her unfettering concentration and seriousness.

"100-meter rapid running shooting..." Golden Flower No. 1 said, raising her hand, in which she held a second chronograph. While raising her eyes gently to look at Molly, she placed her thumb on the second chronograph's button. "Hit all the targets in 35 seconds! If you miss a single one or exceed the time limit, I will have to make you undergo baptism once again."

"Yes!" Molly answered with determination. Her focused eyes emitted a sharp light, and she had maintained her serious expression.

Taking a look ahead, Golden Flower No. 1 yelled out, "Ready..." The person in charge of the mechanical target was on standby, awaiting orders. "Go!" Golden Flower No. 1 ordered alerting everyone. Within microseconds, the second chronograph began rolling. As soon as Golden Flower No. 1's voice died down, Molly started running forward as fast as she could with the pistol in her hands.

"Da...da...da..."

Golden Flower No. 1 took a look at the second chronograph in her hand and then glanced at Molly, who was darting forward as she gently began to raise the pistol to shoot. Controlled electronically, the targets too popped out at random one by one. "Da...da..."

the sounds of the bullet hitting against the target came through the air one after the other continuously. As Molly fell forward, owing to the great speed, took a roll on the ground and managed to get the last shot, Golden Flower No. 1's eyes turned dark. The moment Molly came back to her, she announced in a rather cold tone, "36 seconds!"

Without uttering a single word, Molly walked in the opposite direction, still holding the heavy pistol in her right hand.

Behind her, Golden Flower No. 1 pulled out an intercom and ordered, "No. 5, Molly didn't pass the rapid shooting. Strengthen her training and make it more rigorous."

"My sister, you're being too hard on her..." Ling said from the other end of the intercom. In a butterfly-shaped mask, she leaned against a tree trunk while waggling a setaria viridis with her hand. She added, "She was a complete outsider just 6 months earlier. And in such a short span she had been able to achieve so much. She is excellent already..." Just looking at Molly, from a distance, who was walking towards her, Ling sighed slightly and continued, "We humans really have great potential and stamina. Prince Victor said that it would take her at least three to five years even if she was talented, but I have a feeling that probably she will make it in just one year."

"I don't care about anything else. The only thing I am concerned with is what Prince Victor said, she won't be qualified unless she reaches my standard,"

upon hearing Golden Flower No. 1's cold tone from the intercom, Ling could not help but roll her eyes. Without saying anything further, she decided this wasn't the time to express her opinion.

She continued to lean against the tree trunk lazily, as she gazed at Molly, who was now drawing closer to her. She was then reminded of the time when she had just come back from A City.

Standing in Victor's office in a solemn manner, the five Golden Flowers were waiting for him. He was late, but none of them dared to say anything about it. Victor reached about half-an-hour later than the time scheduled by him.

"Your highness!" all the Golden Flowers obediently greeted and bowed to him expressing respect and a sense of fear.

After nodding slightly acknowledging their greeting, Victor said, "I have only one topic to discuss with the five of you." He looked around at them and continued speaking, "I want you to train Molly Xia to be a splitting image of you. I don't require her to learn all the subjects, but I require that her shooting, wrestle, and even escaping skills are as good as Golden Flower No. 1 or even better."

Just hearing what Victor had to say, the girls looked at one another in surprise, because Golden Flower No. 1 couldn't be surpassed by any one of the other four of them in terms of these subjects, as it had taken her nearly ten years to reach such a great height of achievement.

"She doesn't have a lot of time..." Victor said as if he sensed their confusion. Sitting on the chair and slightly raising his chin, he added, "I hope she will achieve the goal in three to five years."

"Your highness, that is simply impossible!" Golden Flower No. 1 said with a cold face with some trace of denial.

Victor smiled in a rather evil and attractive manner. He said, "The earlier she achieves the goal, the sooner she will be able to join Brian's side. I don't think she will give herself ten years to get there. Ten years is too long a time for her to remain confident." He took a pause, as his tone turned more serious. "I don't care what kind of means you're going to use, just strengthen training in the subjects I just mentioned, but remember not to neglect and ignore the other subjects," Victor said slowly. "The time she's going to spend will depend on the extent of her persistence to Brian."

Ling's thought came back to the present.

She looked at Molly, who was no more than three hundred meters away from her, her growing admiration and respect evidently reflecting in her eyes. None of them had imagined that she would make such achievements in just half a year.

"No. 5!" Molly greeted Ling, as she gasped for a breath standing across from her. Distinct from the other Golden Flowers, No. 5 always wore a mask. Molly had been told that her face had been disfigured while performing a task.

Discarding the sympathy and admiration which were evident in her eyes a moment ago, Ling stood straight slowly and looked at Molly with her deep-set eyes. In a fake hoarse voice, she said, "Come on. I guess that you haven't gotten enough bullets, and you haven't taken enough long-range raids."

Hearing that, Molly's eyes turned a little dark, but she recovered instantly from the snide remark. "Well, I require more training!" she said.

With a sneer appearing at corners of her mouth, Ling said, "Trust me. I won't let you have a good time!"

In A City.

"The police just finished a 'Demining Operation' and successfully arrested Black Widow, the big drug trafficker settling in A City. In an unexpected blow, a crime scene where one hundred kilos' drugs were being dealt with was exposed. This was the largest-scale drug scam in A City in recent years. Besides the Black Widow, 259 people were arrested at the same time at the crime scene, including drug addicts," a reporter announced on the television.

Watching the flashing news being live broadcasted, Brian squinted slightly at the TV screen. He then picked up the remote control and pressed a button, the image was immediately changed into that of surveillance tapes in the casino from all angles. "Tap..." someone knocked on the door.

"Come in," Brian said as he threw the remote control casually.

Harrow entered the room. After taking a look at Tony, who was standing at the corner, he walked towards Brian. "Mr. Brian Long," he said as he put the document from his hand in front of Brian respectfully, "this is the data for micro-control tomorrow." Brian took a quick glance at the document and said nothing beyond a soft "hmm". 00000000000000
