The system is very abstract, fortunately I am also.

Chapter 408 A Small, Last Exam: A Shock
It's really hard to say whether the 100-ton king or this death sigh is stronger.

Afterwards, Lin Li went to the all-female world again, but still did not trigger any missions or abnormal events.

After wandering around and picking through trash all night, I finally got tired of being a trash collector and decided to return half an hour early to rest.

The following day, Wednesday, was the exam day.

The ground was wet, but the continuous rain had finally stopped.

The weather forecast confidently predicted no rain today, but looking at the gloomy, leaden sky and the faint, damp drizzle in the air, Lin Li couldn't quite agree.

But Lin Li always has a way.

I've chosen you! "The Mirror of Heavenly Secrets"!
Before the mirror shattered, it fleetingly revealed a secret: "The stream spirit will bring rain today."

Lin Li sneered.

I knew it! The weather forecast and the heavens were setting themselves up!

Oioioi, you trying to fool me? Go back and cultivate for another million years, you bastard! I am a cultivator!

Lin Li felt his blood boiling!
With a flourish, Lin Li stuffed his raincoat and umbrella into his backpack, then strode out the door with his head held high. He declared that the "Heavenly Mirror" was the most useful magical artifact he had acquired so far!
Kidding.

That stupid "Heavenly Mirror".

It can only forecast the weather now, thank you, rainy day, F5 stuff.

It didn't rain on the way to school. When Lin Li arrived at the school, he parked his bicycle at the school gate but did not go to the teaching building immediately. Instead, he sat on the bicycle seat and waited.

Lin Li is not going to the exam hall now.

Because he arrived too early, there was a high probability that he would see people discussing and preparing to cheat, which could trigger the anti-cheating task, just like the first monthly exam.

Although I had experience completing a task before, last time, my ranking in the exam room was only around 300th or 400th in the grade. The people in that exam room were still somewhat afraid of my whistleblowing threat.

But this time is different. In the last exam room, my threats are likely to be ineffective and may even provoke a rebellious attitude from these people.

Dealing with them using humanitarian means would be quite troublesome.

Therefore, Lin Li's plan is to avoid seeing it altogether.

Since he had nothing better to do, Lin Li decided to go and take a look at the lecture hall.

Stepping into the spacious and bright lecture hall, Lin Li felt a pang of sadness.

This spacious lecture hall, which should have been my examination room, is no longer mine!
This first seat in the first row, it should have been mine! But now it's not!
This invincible beauty who is looking at me is the beauty who should have belonged to me! Now... oh, she still belongs to me, then it's alright, hehe.

"Lin Li, what brings you here?"

Chen Yuying, who was reciting ancient poems, saw Lin Li approaching. She immediately closed her book, her clear eyes lit up, and a surprised smile naturally curved her lips. Her voice was filled with excitement as she asked.

"I've calculated that it will rain today, so I'm just reminding you to make sure you brought an umbrella. If you didn't, I'll come to the auditorium to pick you up if it rains at noon."

Lin Li shook the umbrella in his hand, sat down in the empty seat next to her as if it were the most natural thing in the world, and explained.

"Oh, that."

So, did you bring an umbrella?

"I kind of regret bringing an umbrella." She rested her chin on her hand, tilted her head to look at him, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her smile bright and mischievous.

"Then it seems you're smarter than the weather forecaster." Lin Li nodded approvingly.

It seemed that Wang Yuezhi wasn't the only one paying attention to him and Chen Yuying; there were others from other classes as well. Lin Li had no choice but to suppress his urge to rub Chen Yuying's cheeks.

I'll save it all up and knead it all over the weekend.

With interest.

Nine out of 1.3 billion returned, and the interest is calculated accordingly, which is reasonable.

After helping Chen Yuying review for a while, the proctor appeared at the door.

Lin Li then stood up to say goodbye: "Alright, I have to go back to my exam room, Class 20, Class 20."

"Good luck on your exam!" Chen Yuying smiled and waved, then started packing her bag to put it in front of her.

Noticing out of the corner of her eye that Lin Li had left something behind, she immediately raised her voice slightly: "Lin Li, you forgot your umbrella, you idiot~"

Lin Li stopped in his tracks, paused for a second, and slowly turned around.

With a strange, ambiguous smile on his face, he didn't react with the panic that a normal person would have when reminded that they'd left something behind, like checking for it or immediately coming up to retrieve it.

Lin Li watched her quietly until he sighed with a hint of a smile and a touch of helplessness.

Chen Yuying was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized and couldn't help but chuckle.

Oh oh~
Lin Li deliberately left the umbrella here, meaning that if it rained at noon, he would have to go to the entrance of Class 20, which he had emphasized several times, to pick up this young master.

That's bad, it's my own problem.

"It's alright, I made a mistake. This isn't your umbrella, bye~" Chen Yuying's eyes sparkled with an understanding smile as she put the umbrella back in the drawer and waved to Lin Li, who was approaching, as if trying to shoo him away.

"Something's up! Oh! It's my umbrella!"

However, Lin Li, looking both embarrassed and angry, walked over and unceremoniously snatched his umbrella back.

His eyes conveyed a sense of dissatisfaction: "I gave you a chance, but you didn't take it. Now you realize it? Too late."

Love that comes late is worthless as grass.

Accusation! Lin Li is going to sue the central government!

Their eyes met in mid-air, held for a second, and then they both burst out laughing.

"I'm very unhappy that you've exposed my scheming this time." Lin Li said with a stern face, but his words were gentle.

"I'm sorry." Chen Yuying immediately put on a pitiful look, which made people feel sorry for her.

Even though Lin Li wasn't human, I still felt pity for him:
"Okay, I forgive you. Next time, remember to speak before you think, okay?"

"Received~"

"As punishment, even if it rains at noon, you will be deprived of the opportunity to pick me up."

Lin Li left with his umbrella.

Behind him, watching him leave, were Chen Yuying with crescent-shaped eyes that seemed to say, "Lin Li is so much fun, I want to stay with him forever," and Wang Yuezhi with bell-shaped eyes that seemed to say, "Damn Lin Li, why isn't he leaving yet?"

The bond between the three at midday is becoming increasingly valuable.

……

When the bell rang for the morning Chinese exam, Lin Li, having calculated the time carefully, strolled leisurely to the door of Class 20.

After taking the transparent bag containing his stationery and glancing at the "Lin Li" seat number that was temporarily written by hand rather than printed at the door, Lin Li walked into the classroom.

"Teacher, I'm sorry I'm late."

There were no students from the other four classes in the classroom.

I don’t know if the students in the parallel classes were assigned based on their grades, but the students in Class 4 of Grade 1 are indeed of relatively good quality. Even Wang Ze and Xie Wenjing, the two sports students whose grades are relatively the worst in the class, are in Class 19 and Class 17 respectively, and neither of them are in Class 20.

But it's not like I don't know anyone here.

Du Hansi, a good friend I met during the sports meet, was sitting in the classroom. Hearing Lin Li's voice, he looked up with surprise in his eyes.

"Ah? Okay, go in." The male teacher proctoring the exam nodded, making no trouble for Lin Li, who was late.

—Because there are quite a few people who haven't arrived at this exam venue yet.

Lin Li nodded to Du Hansi as a greeting, then sat down in his seat, looked at the test papers and answer sheets that had already been distributed on the table, and began to write.

At this moment, a burly student sitting in front of Lin Li turned to look at Lin Li.

Bad eyes.

"What's wrong?" Lin Li asked, looking at the other person with a puzzled expression.

"Do you know my name?" the other person asked casually.

"I do not know."

Lin Li frowned slightly. Did he have to pull strings and curry favor before he could take the final exam?

So domineering? Not paying respects to powerful figures, what trouble will that cause?

To be honest, Lin Li wasn't afraid at all—humans could no longer frighten him; in fact, he was somewhat looking forward to their methods.

However, contrary to Lin Li's expectations, the other party did not get angry upon hearing this. Instead, he simply nodded and got up to leave.

Lin Li's eyes were fixed on the other person, and he still felt a little hopeful.

Maybe they went to call for reinforcements.

"What are you doing? The exam has just started, you can't hand in your paper and leave."

The proctor, who was already sitting on the podium with his phone in hand, looked up when he heard footsteps, frowned and scolded him when he saw what was happening.

The boy scratched his head somewhat awkwardly: "Teacher, I forgot how to write my name. I want to go and look at the seating chart."

Lin Li: "(；☉_☉)?"

The proctor, also an elderly person, was using a mobile phone on the subway. He then waved helplessly, signaling the other person to hurry up.

Soon, the other person returned to their seat and began writing furiously.

After finishing writing quickly, he turned around with his answer sheet and pointed to the name column in front of Lin Li—where the name "Lin Yifeng" was written crookedly.

Lin Yifeng: "Dude, this is my name. Please write it down for me. If I forget how to write it during the exam, please remind me."

Lin Li: "(；☉_☉)?"

Worri! !
Lin Li pinched his fingers together and suddenly realized that the person sitting in front of him was the real bottom student in his grade at Nansang Middle School.

I saw the real person in person!
It turns out that Lin Yifeng's question, "Do you know what my name is?" wasn't a show of force at all; he just wanted to know the character's name!
At this moment, Lin Li felt that the other party deserved the first place, without any exaggeration—it was as valuable as his own first place in the grade.

"Understood, Brother Lin!" Lin Li nodded emphatically, his tone carrying a hint of respect: "Leave this matter to me, I can read!"

"Thank you." Lin Yifeng thanked him politely, then turned back to continue writing his exam paper.

Lin Li was about to lower his head to write on the exam paper, but he noticed out of the corner of his eye that a boy in the upper right corner had already furtively taken out his phone.

Lin Li sighed.

It's finally here. There's no point in burying your head in the sand anymore. I should think about how to report it.

I saw.

The other party observed the proctor.

The other person looked down. The other person unlocked their phone.

The other person turned the phone sideways.

—"TIMI!"

The other person was startled and frantically pressed the volume down button while looking up at the proctor.

Lin Li: "(；☉_☉)?"

No?

What the hell is going on here?

You didn't search for the title, you searched for "timi"?
The familiar sound caused laughter from everyone in the examination room. Everyone looked in the general direction of the sound, trying to find out which idiot was playing on their phone without checking the volume.

As for the proctors...

He was sitting on the podium, holding his phone in his right hand and rubbing his hair with his left. The TIMI had been ringing for two seconds, but he still didn't look at the exam room at all.

The Imperial Tutor had seen a real dragon, and Lin Li had seen a real deaf person. Lin Li was even more awesome than the Imperial Tutor because of one ear.

This made everyone even more excited:

"Who is it? Count me in! I'm Sima Yi, the Little National Standard!"

"CPDD, you are the only one!"

Anyone play Arknights?

The commotion finally alerted the proctor. He looked up at the class, tapped the podium with his chalk box, and reprimanded them in a loud, clear voice:

"Stop making noise, all of you! Stop whispering to each other! Can't you learn from Wang Yixiang? She just goes to sleep and doesn't disturb the other students!"

“Look at Yuwen, he’s eating his breakfast obediently!”

"I don't care if you eat or sleep! But you better be quiet! Anyone who makes a sound will be prevented from handing in their paper early! Quiet! Understand?"

The examination room fell silent.

It seems that the proctor's threats were quite effective.

Lin Li's mouth and eyes were both in the shape of an "O" at that moment.

It doesn't matter who Wang Yixiang is; she's probably the girl in the second group who's already asleep.

It doesn't matter who Yuwen is; he's probably the first boy in the group eating bread.

just.

Where the hell did I come from? Is this still Nansang Middle School?
The final exam hall was terrifying?
Having barely recovered from the shock of the final exam, Lin Li was somewhat at a loss for words. He shook his head with a smile, then lowered his head and focused his attention on the Chinese exam paper, beginning to write the questions.

"call out--"

However, after writing for only a few minutes, a small note was thrown onto his desk and then fell to the floor on the other side.

It was thrown from the left. Lin Li paused in his writing, but seeing that the system hadn't triggered a task, he figured it was better to avoid trouble and pretended not to see it, so he didn't pick up the note.

The other party persisted and soon sent over a second note.

Lin Liwei remained unmoved and unaccounted for; there was no need to pay him any attention.

Lin Li's determination seemed to have made the other party realize something, and sure enough, no more notes were thrown over.

Lin Li, win!

Two minutes later, Lin Yifeng turned around, holding a crumpled piece of paper in his hand, and whispered to Lin Li, "Dude, Wu Xuan wants you to reply to his message. The message is on the ground."

Lin Li: "..."

Wu Xuan, win!

Lin Li took a deep breath; it wouldn't be appropriate for him to continue pretending to be dead.

After thinking about it, I realized it was a Chinese exam, and it had just started, so it didn't seem like I was trying to cheat. So I bent down, picked up the crumpled paper from the ground, and unfolded it.

"Are you there?"

That's all. Just two words.

Lin Li: "???"

Holy crap? Is this Wu Xuan even human?
Sending "Are you there?" on QQ or WeChat is already stupid, why would you send "Are you there?" in a private message chat?
Where am I right now? Am I robbing someone's grave?
Having calmed down, Lin Li couldn't possibly reply with just a "yes" at this moment. He turned his head, looked at the figure not far away who was staring at him and seemed to be Wu Xuan, and nodded.

The other person nodded, and soon a second small piece of paper was thrown over.

"Dude, I've never seen you before. You don't seem like a local."

"Yes, the academic affairs office made a mistake when assigning exam rooms this time, and they assigned me to the wrong exam room."

Feeling that the other party wouldn't give up until they got an answer, Lin Li responded with the note—anyway, even if the proctor caught him now, they could just look at the contents and know, so it wouldn't count as cheating.

Moreover... Lin Li suspected that this proctor was the designated proctor for the final exam, and was very adept at handling the situation in this exam room.

Will they catch the note? Probably they wouldn't even bother.

Wu Xuan replied to the message.

Lin Li opened it.

What does "翏误" mean?

Oh, no.

Wu Xuan, I'm a bit... *beep* your mother.

Lin Li felt as if the wrinkles in his brain had been smoothed out, as if he were strolling through a Norwegian forest, but he forgot what happened next.

Could it be that a master like Lin Yifeng has a classroom?

Nansang Middle School is a county-level top middle school. Theoretically, apart from sports students, all other students should have excellent grades. Even for sports students, there are academic requirements for admission. It's not that as long as you are good at sports, even if you are illiterate, you can be admitted.

Of course, Lin Li was well aware that even public schools were not immune to the need for connections and backdoor admissions.

Some teachers' or other people's children have poor grades, but they can still get in by paying money. But is there really that many of them?
Lin Li took a deep breath and replied to the message:
"It means wrong. Anyway, I really shouldn't be in this exam room, so I still have to take the exam. Let's talk again after I finish the exam (no need to reply to this one)."

However, not long after the first piece of paper was thrown out, another piece of paper was thrown back.

Lin Li, who strongly suspected that there was a "行" character inside, looked up at Wu Xuan.

—To be honest, my patience is almost gone.

Wu Xuan waved his hand repeatedly, then pointed to another girl, as if it wasn't written by him.

Lin Li opened it.

"Hey, do you have a girlfriend? If not, can I have your QQ or WeChat?"

With a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Lin Li raised his head and looked at Wu Xuan, one of the few girls in the classroom.

He nodded blankly at her, and to avoid any misunderstanding that he meant he could give it to her, he mouthed "I have it," then pointed to the note with his finger and waved his hand to indicate "I won't give it to her."

The other person nodded, but then wrote another note and tossed it over:
"Is she good to you? If not, you can find someone else. I think we can definitely manage our household frugally together: I'll help you save 2TB of hard drive space, and you'll help me save 2 batteries."

It's a bit annoying.

This time, Lin Li neither wrote a note nor looked up to respond. He expressionlessly crumpled the note into a ball and threw it directly into the drawer.

A cold response is your own answer.

Regardless of whether the other person understood his meaning, Lin Li continued writing his exam paper.

Exams in other subjects can guarantee that you'll have more than an hour left after finishing them, but Chinese is different. Chinese is a subject where you don't even want to copy the answers if they're right in front of you. If you waste time chatting with other people, you're likely to not finish.

Lin Li intended to do poorly on the test, but he had his own method—he wanted the class teacher to know that he was capable of getting the answer right, but he deliberately made a mistake.

It is only meaningful to lose points in this way.

It's very easy to cause a drop in grades by not writing anything.

Firstly, it would be difficult to explain to the teacher. Secondly, if Wu Min and Chen Yuying's mother knew that he and Chen Yuying were dating, it might even change their supportive attitude, making them think that his studies would ultimately be affected, and that his previous first place in the grade might be in question, which would be a loss.

Another note was tossed over.

I'm furious!

The farce has to end.

Just as Lin Li was about to get up and speak to the whole group, he saw Du Hansi waving frantically at him, as if he was the one who threw the note.

As for Du Hansi, we can be patient with him.

"Brother, you keep writing. I'll talk to them and tell them to stop bothering you."

Upon seeing the contents of Du Hansi's note, Lin Li raised an eyebrow and then nodded at him.

Du Hansi responded with a Korean-style defensive hand gesture, OK.

Perhaps it was Du Hansi's help that worked, and finally, Lin Li got some peace and quiet.

However, he occasionally noticed that many people were staring at him, this "outsider," and as time went by, the number of stares increased.

But it doesn't matter.

Lin Li has now started writing an essay.

After reading the essay topic, Lin Li immediately selected essay templates that could be used from the countless perfect essays he had memorized using his "Strong Memory" technique. He then began translating them from Chinese to Chinese, adding a few beautiful and invincible golden sentences to the beginning and end.

Lin Li has been writing essays this way ever since he acquired [Strong Sense].

The silver basin with gold trim looked quite good, and the essay score fluctuated between 50 and 56, which was considered a very high score.

Writing it myself is too much trouble.

Lin Li devoted all his writing skills to describing Chen Yuying, leaving no time for essays.

Lin Li, who was writing furiously, suddenly paused—

If you mistakenly enter the residence of a sect's servants, and they learn your identity, they will all choose to distance themselves from you, unwilling to associate with you, saying that there are different circles and that you cannot force yourself to join them.

However, as fellow disciples of the same sect, one should not harbor resentment towards fellow disciples. Instead, one should cultivate harmonious relationships with all fellow disciples. Even without their approval, one might gain their assistance in the future! It will be beneficial and harmless!

[Mission triggered!]
