There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

"Thank you for your hard work. I had to...ah, no, I have an exam today." An Yi showed a distressed expression: "I wanted to finish reading it in one go..."

"...Ah?" Li Nian's smile gradually disappeared: "What exam?"

"Huh?" An Yi was caught off guard by this question and looked over blankly.

Wu Geng also looked at Li Nian in surprise.

"What's your reaction? Did you forget that today is the day of the test?"

"..."

Li Nian had really forgotten about it. When Wu Geng mentioned it, he remembered that Mr. Hiratsuka had said that the test would be held today.

"I can tell at a glance that you are totally unprepared." Seeing him like that, Wu Geng smiled an evil smile that seemed to be gloating over his misfortune: "You must have been concentrating on writing recently and not reviewing. I can see that you don't study seriously normally. You will definitely fail the exam today, hehehe...just wait patiently for the make-up exam later."

"...Hehe, that's not necessarily the case."

Li Nian shrugged nonchalantly. Even though he suddenly knew that the exam was today, he didn't take it seriously.

"Well, in that case, I'll take this opportunity to get first place in the grade..."

Wu Geng sneered.

“It’s really easy to get last place.”

Li Nian snorted disdainfully: "Just wait and see."

Chapter 114: When comparison occurs, there is harm

It is simply a satire on all the serious students in the world. After a day of exams, Li Nian did not feel any difficulty in any subject.

Although this guy basically didn't listen to the teacher during class, and used that time to meditate to learn things on the skill tree, or sleep to replenish his energy, but that was only because he really felt that listening to the class was a waste of time, it didn't mean that his studies were really neglected - at least Li Nian had completed all the high school courses by self-study.

This was not something absurd. With his current strong mental strength, photographic memory had become his most basic quality, and his thinking ability was far beyond that of ordinary people. If not, he would not be able to understand the much more profound and obscure technical knowledge.

As for the content that high school students need to learn, it is basically not more difficult than making a big fireball. What's more, the former college student who has lived his life again has not discarded all the high school knowledge. In addition to these unique conditions, a short period of time is enough for him to learn everything he needs in high school.

So for this exam, Li Nian really aimed to get first place in the grade - but this is nothing to be proud of. For Li Nian now, this is just a self-requirement that he will inevitably and must achieve.

No matter what the subject or the test paper was, he would just glance at the questions and basically know how to understand and answer them. He would just pick up the pen and start writing without much thinking, and in a short time he would be able to finish the entire test paper before anyone else.

Thanks to this, when he was bored, he still had time to observe the life around him.

Many of them are frowning and thinking seriously, such as Gogen and Kato. This is normal.

There were also people who were scratching their ears and cheeks and looked distressed, such as Aki and Yuigahama. It was obvious that they did not study seriously.

There was also a person who seemed to have given up on treatment and had a desperate expression... Wasn't that Hikigaya? !

Li Nian stared at him blankly, thinking that it was not a big deal to just take a test. She stared at him for a long time unconsciously and was noticed by Ms. Xiaochun, the invigilator of the math class. She coughed loudly.

"Hmm... Teacher Xiaochun has a very sharp eye for men! So don't think of cheating behind my back at this time~~~, I told you not to listen to me in class~~! Do you regret it? Hehehe, now is the time to suffer the consequences~~~, all of you just wait for the remedial classes after failing the course, and receive the loving education from me! Don't worry, I will definitely not let you sleep at that time!"

The 30+ female teacher's declaration immediately caused a chorus of wails, mostly from the boys who had not paid attention in math class.

As for Li Nian, who caused the trouble, he shrugged innocently, knowing that he was reminding himself, and retracted his gaze in time. However, it was impossible for him to fail. He was afraid that he would not be able to enjoy Teacher Xiaochun's so-called loving education. As for who would fail the course... that was none of his business.

I finished all the exams in the afternoon and left school earlier than usual.

After handing in the test paper, Wu Geng sighed heavily, looking unhappy.

Li Nian spoke to her while packing her things.

"Why, didn't you do well in the exam?"

Wu Geng rolled his eyes at him.

"Don't worry, I'm better than you anyway... It's just a test, it's nothing serious. Get ready, I'm going to the Service Club."

"Aren't we preparing for this? Don't worry."

As Li Nian spoke, he looked over at Yuigahama. She was still discussing today's exams with Miura, Hayama and the others. He could also vaguely hear them talking about where to go after school. From time to time, bursts of laughter could be heard from the crowd over there.

Judging from the look on her face, I wonder if Yuigahama still remembers the commission that she and Gosuke gave to the Service Club.

Li Nian couldn't help but shake his head and looked at Hikigura again, meeting his gaze who was looking at this side. Hikigura was stunned for a moment, then pointed in the direction of the door, nodded, and walked over first, which meant he would go to the department room first to wait. It seemed like he took the commission to heart.

Li Nian and Wu Geng packed up their things slowly and came to the service department according to their memories.

This time, Li Nian knocked on the door before opening it. Only after hearing Yukinoshita's cold voice reply, "Come in," did he push the door open.

In the club room, Yukinoshita and Hikigaya were already sitting far away in the inner seats. Another stool that seemed to belong to Yuigahama was placed next to Yukinoshita. She had not arrived yet. In fact, when Li Nian and Gogen came out of the classroom, she was still chatting with others in the classroom.

Li Nian noticed that what Xueshita was holding in her hands were the manuscripts that she and Wu Geng had handed over before. What was different from the past was that this time they were each carefully wrapped in a folder, and colorful sticky notes could be seen everywhere. She was immediately startled.

"Now that you are here, please take a seat first."

At this time, Yukinoshita casually pointed to the stacked chairs over there, obviously asking them to move the chairs themselves.

Li Nian temporarily withdrew his gaze from the two manuscripts, moved two more and placed them opposite Yukinoshita and Hikigaya, then sat down with his legs spread out. Wu Geng was relatively more reserved, and sat down a step slower, carefully and upright.

The client had arrived as promised. Yukinoshita glanced at the empty seat next to her and asked.

"Hey there, isn't Yuigahama-san here with you?"

"Don't selectively forget my name!" Hikigaya protested unhappily, but continued to answer her question: "...You mean Yuigahama? When I came, she was chatting happily with someone else. She might not have read the manuscript like last time. She has forgotten that she has to reply to the client and is ready to go home happily."

"Yeah……"

Yukinoshita stared at the empty seat for a while with some embarrassment, and finally sighed, as if she had decided not to wait any longer: "In that case, let's start the conversation."

Wu Geng's expression tensed up, he coughed, his expression turned serious, and he spoke.

"So, could you please let me hear your opinions?"

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita straightened her expression and made a statement first to pave the way for what she was going to say next.

"Actually, I don't really know much about this..."

"It's okay, just tell me."

"In that case, I won't be polite... Since you all submitted different works, let me start with the manuscript submitted by the boy over there."

I have to start from my side. Li Nian nodded and looked at his manuscript which seemed to have a lot of notes on it, and his interest was slightly piqued.

"How do you feel after watching it?"

"First of all... there is one thing I must say - please don't show your unfinished story to others."

Li Nian suddenly showed an embarrassed expression.

"Well... because I only had time to write the beginning part at that time."

"So next time, please bring the complete manuscript." Yukinoshita tapped the folder on her lap gently. "I didn't read all of your story this time, so I can't comment on your book as a whole based on this premise. Do you understand?"

"Of course... So, based on what you've seen, how do you feel about this opening?"

"Not bad." Yukinoshita gave a decisive evaluation, and continued: "It can be seen that you are very experienced. The words are concise and clear. Although I don't like this type of story, I have to say that as long as you read it carefully, it will arouse your interest and make people look forward to the rest of the story. As far as this opening part is concerned, you are very good."

Hikigaya nodded in agreement, a look of admiration on his face.

"It's rare that I have the same opinion as Yukinoshita... You're really amazing. This woman doesn't read light novels very often, so she might not understand. You've already reached the level of mastering the art. Zaimokuza is simply blown to pieces compared to you... It seems that you've almost finished writing recently, right? If possible, please let me read the rest of the content. The combination of the fallen demon king and the three-no-character female high school exorcist is really interesting. I'm really curious about what kind of story will happen next."

As expected, the response was well received, and Li Nian replied indifferently with a thank you.

But Gogen caught on to some individual words in Hikigaya's words and looked at Li Nian in a daze.

"The Demon King and... a female high school exorcist?"

"It can be seen that the two of you chose the same theme for your creation." Yukinoshita looked at Gogen and frowned: "But compared with his work, this... Gogen classmate, right? I have to say that what you wrote is several levels lower."

Wu Geng clenched his fists instantly.

Chapter 115: Leaving in Angry

As soon as Li Nian heard Xuexia say this, she felt something was wrong. She glanced at Wu Geng's reaction and noticed her little movements at the first time. She knew that Wu Geng was already angry.

Yukinoshita didn't notice and continued talking without any hesitation.

"In general, your work is boring and makes me sleepy. I really don't have the desire to continue reading. I finished it reluctantly. To be honest, I feel that my time was wasted... Although I can see that you are writing very seriously and hard, compared to the last time you came... the guy named Slime?"

"It's Zaimokuza." Hikigaya corrected Yukinoshita: "I can see what kind of status he holds in your eyes... Indeed, compared to that fat guy, at least in terms of grammar and fluency, your work is much better than that fat guy. It feels quite smooth to read."

Perhaps realizing that Yukinoshita had gone too far, Hikigaya's remarks seemed to be an attempt to save face for Gogen. It's not as if he is usually so smart.

"But other than that, there are no other advantages."

However, it was clear that Yukinoshita did not realize that he was assisting, and continued to criticize without hesitation.

“Even if the grammar is barely passable, the final product is really disappointing.”

Wu Geng was so angry that she was shaking all over. When Li Nian thought it was almost time for her to explode, she seemed to hold it back and asked another question in a trembling voice, pretending to be calm.

"...May I ask where exactly you let people down?"

"Yes... Let me take a look first." Yukinoshita opened the fifth chapter's manuscript and turned to the first marked place. She seemed to be looking at her notes and asking questions: "First of all, the question I want to ask the most is, you clearly emphasized the deep hatred between the heroine, who is a demon exorcist, and the demon at the beginning. Why did she choose to save the hero's life when she realized that he was a demon at the first time?"

This reminded Li Nian of how she felt when she read her first draft. Didn't she actually fix that major bug?

"Because she is kind by nature..." Gogen explained, but was immediately interrupted by Yukinoshita.

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell at all, because you didn't explain it here, as if you wanted to leave it for the readers to figure out for themselves? It turns out that it was actually due to a superficial reason that she was kindhearted and soft-hearted... But when I saw this woman chopping off other demons afterwards, she acted decisively and thought that there was no point in answering questions. I completely believed that she saved the hero at that time because she was obsessed with him because of his handsome face."

Wu Geng would like to explain.

"no……"

"Are you sure? I think this is the only reason that can explain why the heroine saved the hero and then inexplicably fell in love with him. After all, you always emphasize that this guy has a face that is so handsome that it's heartbreaking."

"..."

"Because of your inexplicable emotional treatment at the beginning, the tone of the whole book has changed. This is just the beginning. If you continue reading, you will find flaws and contradictions everywhere..."

Yukinoshita began to criticize Wu Geng's manuscript one by one, including the plot, character design, story development, environment description, background setting... and so on. She picked out paragraphs of the original text and criticized them. Li Nian, who had not really read Wu Geng's revised manuscript and still had expectations of her, thinking that she had really corrected those obvious mistakes, was also stunned. After listening to Yukinoshita's words, he really felt that Wu Geng's revised manuscript seemed to be useless.

At the beginning, Wu Geng could occasionally say one or two words of rebuttal, but later on she gradually became silent, and even began to say nothing. Her head lowered lower and lower until her expression could not be seen clearly. It was obvious that she was very shocked.

Until Hikigaya couldn't bear it anymore and coughed, interrupting Yukinoshita who was still scolding her.

"That Yukinoshita."

"What? Please don't let me talk while--"

"You should know when to quit. It's almost time to quit."

"..." Yukinoshita glanced at Gogen who lowered his head, raised her eyebrows slightly, and finally sighed and stopped talking.

Hikigaya gave a stiff apologetic smile.

"Our director is a straight talker, don't take it to heart. I've read more light novels, and after reading them, I don't think they're as bad as what Yukinoshita said... Maybe it's because we're writing about the same subject, and the author's opening was a little too amazing, so Yukinoshita's perspective on your article is..."

Wu Geng finally responded and raised his head suddenly.

The gaze that glared at him was as terrifying and full of hatred as that of an evil ghost.

Hikigaya was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat and his body tensed.

But it was only for a moment, and Wu Geng lowered his head again, with the hair falling on his forehead obscuring his expression.

Then she pushed the chair away with her schoolbag and stood up suddenly, but bowed to Hikigaya and Yukinoshita and said in a low voice: "Thank you very much for your advice."

After saying that, she turned and hurried towards the door.

Just at this moment, Yuigahama opened the door with a smile on her face.

"I'm sorry I'm late... Hey, Gogen-san, are you leaving now...?"

"Get out of the way." Gogen said coldly, looking up at Yuigahama.

Yuigahama shut up after being stabbed by that cold gaze. She felt fear subconsciously and followed the order to make way. Gogen walked past her without saying a word and left the club room without even looking at Li Nian next to her.

Yuigahama looked at her back blankly, then turned his head to look at the club room where the air seemed to be condensed, and asked cautiously.

"Gogen-san, did I miss something?"

"Look, you've pissed him off." Hikigaya understood Gogen's mood very well. The client had rushed out of the door, obviously unable to bear someone's venomous tongue. He couldn't help but cast a complaining look at Yukinoshita: "You, a woman, should really learn how to read the air. At least you should have realized that the other party was on the verge of exploding halfway through."

Yukinoshita sighed heavily and looked towards the door with some distress and headache.

"You're right. It was my mistake... I took it for granted that this Gogen-student was as thick-skinned as your big, burly friend."

"Wait, I've said many times that Zaimokuza is not my friend." Hikigaya reiterated.

Yukinoshita ignored him and turned to Li Nian.
