Double Tap Page #2

Synopsis: What begins as an innocuous entry into a gun competition eventually steers Rick towards a path of fatal rivalry. With extensive training, Rick emerges as one of the finest shooters in town. Three years down the line, four members of a G4 unit have been murdered; the suspects clear out any possible evidence. A top CID officer, Miu, narrows the suspect list down to just Rick, whom he had met in the shooting arena on the final day of the gun competition three years before...

Every gun has its own personality.

Rick's good for the right client.

If you think so.

Let him after your gun.

No.

You each have your speciality.

No one's right or wrong.

I think Rick is talented.

He's so good in shooting.

But too bad he stopped competing.

I'd like to face off with him.

Still too slow.

I'm afraid the gun will...

What? Backfire?

You have an advantage? Your weight.

And you still can't control the gun.

You don't trust the gun.

You don't trust me.

Got it.

Right. You've low standards.

Of course it backfires if you do this.

But it doesn't mean

others can't control it.

Your hybrid guns are fast.

But when everyone shoots equally well.

In competition it's accuracy and tactics.

And if not in competition?

Then it's only an "if".

There's no answer to that.

Will you be in this year's match?

Definitely.

Good!

You are lucky. I'll be the surveyor.

Otherwise...

Goodbye.

What's a surveyor?

Surveyor is the police

of shooting ranges.

Whatever happens at the range.

Only he can stop it with his gun.

Do backfires count?

Try it and see.
