The two of them played for a while more on the ice rink, this time with Jungkook closely following beside Lisa and not leaving her side for even a moment. Lisa did not see Jaehyun again and thought that he left.

When they left the ice rink, they saw Jaehyun at the exit.

Jungkook smiled grimly in his heart. This is a good game he's played.

Since they met, the three of them headed out together. The amusement park was still buzzing with activity. Lisa was actually to ride both the roller coaster and the drop tower but there were long queues everywhere. Everyone was out to play before the New Year.

She did not want to waste her time queueing and chose to shoot balloons in the end.

The game used toy guns with plastic bullets. The balloons varied in sized and the smaller balloons gave different prizes; there were large and small stuffed toys and all kinds of popular toys.

Among all the balloons, the small red balloon was the most valuable. Anyone who successfully hit it could freely pick among all the large toys.

Lisa spotted a pink dinosaur on the prize rack. In the past, she did not believe in love at first sight but now she was convinced.

"I want that". Lisa pointed to the dinosaur.

"Buy it on Taobao" Jungkook showed her the light.

However, Lisa had already passed twenty yuan over, "I'll play a twenty yuan round first".

And another, and another, and another, another.

The more she played, the deeper she sank. Each round made her more frustrated than the last.

One hundred yuan was gone like this. At the last shot, Jungkook suddenly pressed down on her shoulder.

Lisa turned to look at him. She thought that he wanted to play as well and held the gun out.

Jungkook did not take it. He did not believe that it was possible for the toy gun to hit the tiny balloon at all. Though he could not explain why, he felt that there was something fishy going on.

"Let's go. I'll buy one for you". Jungkook said. He paused before emphasizing, "One that's exactly the same".

"Let me give it a try". Jaehyun who has been observing silently from the side suddenly spoke.

The two of them looked at Jaehyun.

Jaehyun stepped forward to take the toy gun. He aimed at the balloon and explained, "The gunsight for this gun is not accurate; it's slightly off. Therefore, you won't be able to hit the things that you've aimed at".

Lisa was astonished. "Ah? So what can we do? Just shoot blindly?"

Jaehyun shook his head. "Nope, the deviation is fixed. You just have to calculate the angle difference and adjust according when aiming to make up for it. For example, like this...." As he spoke, his hand that was supporting the gun moved slightly below. His felt eye was closed while his right eye was fixed on the gun sight. After a while, he raised his head and gazed at the target. This repeated several times.

Lisa felt very amazed. She stretched her neck and leaned over to his side to take a closer look.

Then, Jungkook wanted to see what was going on as well. He suddenly squeezed over and wedged his large body in between the two of them, crowding up space at once. After a while, he seemed to feel that Lisa was obstructing his sight and tugged on the back of her collar to toss her to the side.

Lisa: "...."

Finally, Jaehyun was done with aiming and suddenly pulled on the trigger.
