Rebirth of a Top Student's Handbook

This is a middle-aged woman around fifty years old. She is not tall and is dressed simply. She is wearing a black down jacket that covers her from head to toe, and under the thick scarf is a bare face.

"What's going on?" Professor Chen asked while untying his scarf.

"Teacher Chen, this student Jiang Fei from your college not only led his classmates to play games, but also falsely accused them of cheating on the exam," the stern-faced male teacher answered first.

"Is that so, Jiang Fei?" Upon hearing this, Instructor Chen frowned slightly, but she still wanted to hear what Jiang Fei had to say; she didn't believe Jiang Fei was that kind of child.

"I didn't. I heard it from Feng Pinling after I got back to the dorm," Jiang Fei said, sobbing.

Everyone in the room instantly turned their attention to Feng Pinling. Feng Pinling felt utterly humiliated.

"I heard it from their classmates in the exam room." Feng Pinling didn't want to talk about this, but now that the topic had been brought up to her, she had no choice but to say it.

"Who said that?" the dark-faced male teacher asked again, his expression grim.

Feng Pinling glanced at the expressions of the male teacher and Mao Yating's parents, then lowered her eyes and said, "They are students in the same exam room, and I don't know them. What I told Jiang Fei was that Mao Yating's exam paper was forcibly collected."

“Isn’t forcing students to submit their papers cheating? When I asked you that, none of you argued with me,” Jiang Fei said urgently.

"I didn't say anything because I didn't know the situation."

"I felt bad because I didn't do well on the test, and I didn't say anything."

"Why don't we just call the proctor over? And also copy the surveillance video from the exam room," Professor Chen said, pulling up a chair and sitting down.

After saying that, he turned to Jiang Fei and the other two and said, "You guys go over there and get a chair to sit on."

Director Wang glanced sideways at the female teacher sitting on the far right, who was also the academic advisor of the School of Foreign Languages ​​in charge of their college, and said, "Teacher Wan, go and call them over as well."

Professor Wan glanced at Dean Zhang and then went out to make a phone call.

Meanwhile, everyone else in the room had already started chatting.

......

"What a coincidence! I graduated in '86, and you're my senior. It wasn't easy to get into the capital university back then."

It was at this moment that Zhou Min and the other two learned that Mao's father was also a graduate of the Capital University. The three of them exchanged glances and secretly became anxious.

"Actually, it was alright. Back then, college applications were submitted before the Gaokao (National College Entrance Examination). Many timid students filled out applications for other schools. Those who got into the Capital University weren't necessarily the top students, but they were definitely the boldest. Hahaha," Professor Chen said, laughing.

"That's true, but the faculty at the Capital University is very strong, and the student success rate is..."

......

More than half an hour later, a male and a female student walked in.

The two looked a bit older than Zhou Min and the others, and Zhou Min guessed that they were probably graduate students.

After the two spoke, it proved that Zhou Min's guess was correct.

"The reason we arrived late is that when we went to the exam room to copy the surveillance video, we found that the surveillance cameras in the exam room had been broken last month, and there were no recent videos," the girl said.

"Is it really such a coincidence?" Not only did Zhou Min and the others find it too coincidental, but even Instructor Chen was a little skeptical.

"Yes, we didn't believe it at first either, and we checked it repeatedly."

"The surveillance cameras have been broken for so long, and nobody's taken care of it?" Teacher Chen was very dissatisfied with the situation.

"There's nothing we can do about it. The school has so many classrooms, and there's equipment that needs maintenance every day, so there's always a waiting period."

"Were you two the proctors for the College Physics exam at the School of Foreign Languages ​​this morning?"

"Correct."

Why did you forcibly confiscate this student's exam paper?

The two exchanged a glance, and the girl said, "I confiscated the exam paper because I found her doing something unrelated to the exam."

"what's up?"

"She was twirling her pen, probably because she was learning it for the first time. She kept dropping the pen and making big movements when picking it up. I was worried that it would affect the other students' exams, so I collected her test paper early."

After the girl finished speaking, before Teacher Chen could ask any further questions, the male teacher with a dark expression spoke up directly:

"Mao Yating, that's not right. How could you twirl your pen in the exam room? You can't do that again."

"I understand," Mao Yating replied, her head bowed and looking aggrieved.

"Student, don't believe everything you hear. Do you know how serious plagiarism is for a student?" After criticizing Mao Yating, the stern-faced teacher then began to criticize Jiang Fei.

Jiang Fei felt incredibly wronged, but had nowhere to vent her frustrations, so she could only force herself to hold back her tears.

“Teacher Chen, Jiang Fei’s actions are indeed quite egregious. What do you think?” Director Wang, who hadn’t said much since Teacher Chen entered, also spoke up.

"Could there be some misunderstanding? Jiang Fei is usually a very earnest and down-to-earth girl. I don't think she would do such a thing." Teacher Chen glanced at Jiang Fei, feeling a little sorry for her. But that's how many things are; without solid evidence, it's always the vulnerable group that suffers.

"What misunderstanding could there be? As I just said, Jiang Fei not only tempted his roommate to play games when school started, but he also just spread rumors in front of all of us that his roommate cheated on the exam."

"Playing games is a personal activity, there's no question of enticement, right?" Teacher Chen disagreed with the stern-faced teacher's words.

However, she had no evidence to prove Jiang Fei's innocence, so she could only patiently argue with the stern-faced teacher.

"After her roommate became addicted to games, she secretly uninstalled them herself. Although she didn't commit any legal wrongdoing, morally speaking, it's morally wrong to scheme against a classmate like that..."

Zhou Min felt disgusted by the stern-faced teacher's misleading words, while Director Wang and Dean Zhang sitting next to her kept nodding in agreement.

The two senior students who entered later also looked like they were listening attentively to the teachings, and even Teacher Zhao, whom Zhou Min felt was quite upright, did not utter a single rebuttal from beginning to end.

Zhou Min stared at the computer tower next to her, becoming more and more annoyed as she listened. She thought to herself that if there were surveillance videos, she wouldn't have to listen to everyone arguing here.

Zhou Min turned on her computer to check whether the surveillance video was due to a broken device that failed to record it, or whether it had been deleted.

However, she knew that she was powerless and that even if she opened the video and found that it had indeed been deleted, she might not be able to recover the completely deleted surveillance video, and it would be of no use in the end.

Zhou Min watched as the stern-faced teacher gained the upper hand on the field, and she couldn't help but feel anxious. At that moment, she suddenly thought of Teacher Gong. That's right, if she couldn't do it, he definitely could.

After spending a semester together, Zhou Min had come to realize that Professor Gong's computer skills were absolutely top-notch.

Zhou Min couldn't wait to go out and make a phone call. Seeing the people arguing more and more fiercely, Zhou Min gestured to Instructor Zhao that she was going out to make a phone call. After Instructor Zhao nodded, Zhou Min immediately left the office and went to the corridor to make the call.

"Hello." Just as Zhou Min was worried that no one would answer, a clear, cold voice rang out.

"Teacher Gong, this is Zhou Min. We've run into a bit of trouble and need your help. Are you at school right now?" Afraid of being overheard by the people inside, Zhou Min quickly walked to one side of the corridor, speaking as she went.

"What is it?" Teacher Gong's tone was very calm, giving people a sense of tranquility.

"One of my roommates had his exam paper forcibly collected during his exam. Today, his parents came to the school and said that our dormitory has a bad atmosphere, and that the rumors about cheating are just rumors we spread."

The exam room's surveillance cameras are broken now, and the video footage is gone. I'd like to ask, Professor Gong, is it possible for you to recover the video?

"Make them all come to the information building!"

"Teacher, I didn't finish speaking. Dean Zhang from the School of Foreign Languages ​​and Director Wang from the Academic Affairs Office are both here," Zhou Min quickly added, slightly embarrassed by Teacher Gong's words.

"Okay, have them all come over. Wait for me in conference room number 2 on the 8th floor." After saying that, he looked like he was about to hang up the phone.

"Hey, Teacher Gong, I called you without your permission. They don't know anything about it, and it seems they're not planning to recover the computer data. You need to..." Zhou Min was interrupted before she could finish her sentence.

"Have them come over, I'll wait for you in the conference room." Then he hung up the phone.

"Hello...hello..." Zhou Min hung up the phone in frustration.

Is Teacher Gong being a little too confident? There's a dean and a director here!

Not to mention Instructor Zhao, even Instructor Zhou only dared to speak in a flattering manner.

He's so arrogant, asking so many teachers to come to him right away. Doesn't he have any idea of ​​his own importance?
