Side mission (4)

For two whole weeks, Kevin has wasted probably dozens of bullet casing in Frederick's uncle's supply. Lawrence forced him to work to the bone. 

He put compressed treatment in Kevin's palms and wrist, letting his hand rest for an hour before asking him to take the gun again. 

Lawrence's attitude in training him is gentle. He will smile at him, use his gentle voice to instruct him. Correct his posture so that his aims will not veer from the center target. 

And it was also this gentle voice and smiling face that says, "Are you hungry? Endure it."

"Are you tired? Should I let you run around the ranch to exercise your limbs?"

"Are you thirsty? Don't stop, okay? No water for you until you manage to fire twice as fast at your current speed and all bullets hit the target."

The grievances in Kevin's heart can fill a whole tank! 

Why is his smart protagonist like this? Kevin is crying without tears.
