"Yanagi, do an extra math test tonight and bring it to school tomorrow. I'll mark it for you." Ukyo's voice came again in the headset.
Yanaijian: “?”
She knew Youjing. The guy was probably upset because she had asked him to eavesdrop again. Youjing, who had a good upbringing, would never do such a thing, but he just couldn't help it.
But I really don’t want to hear you hang up the phone!
Volume 125: Chapter 5: Come over tonight and spend the night? (Entire paragraph deleted) (k votes required~)
Ukyo wants to try and see if he can intervene in the misunderstanding between Tsukinoki and Shikiya.
But he is not very good at taking the initiative to chat with people.
The end result is that the two people neither want to clear up the misunderstanding online, nor do they want to meet offline to clarify things.
Ukyo approaches Tamaki and wants him to be the middleman.
But Tamaki has been very anxious lately.
He typed a long message to Ukyo——
"Maybe I really don't have much talent for writing. Seeing myself defeated by a junior whom I once mentored, I felt a huge loss. I wanted to ask him for some writing advice, but because he's my senior, I couldn't open my mouth..."
"I feel like I have no hope of continuing my studies this year."
"The future of writing is also bleak..."
Ukyo was silent.
He realized that this was most likely a confession sent to the world by someone on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Ukyo didn't know what kind of mood Tamaki was in when he typed these words, but he could almost understand the feeling of being surpassed by a younger generation... It was very painful, and he was struggling.
The reason he could understand it was not because he himself had experienced being chased by others, but because he was always the one who "surpassed others", so he had witnessed many people facing collapse after being surpassed.
Ukyo didn't know what Tamaki was feeling at the moment, but the suicide rate among Japanese high school students was 17.12%. This number included many incidents caused by the revival of the supernatural, not just the number of people who chose to commit suicide due to depression. But it was still a very scary number, and he didn't want to gamble.
So he quickly typed to the other party in the LINE chat box -
“Many young people start creating because they believe ‘I must be a genius.’ However, as they gain experience, most of them gradually discover that not only are they not geniuses, but they are even just rubbish with no talent…”
"But even so, they still refuse to give up and want to continue creating... For a creator, standing up again after being knocked down by a huge setback is the true beginning of creation."
The silence between people is mutual.
After finishing this paragraph, it was the turn of Tamaki on the opposite side to be silent.
He might be inspired... or he might just turn around and continue to tank, swinging back and forth between the two extremes.
But in short, I have said it, and whether he can cheer up depends on himself.
Tamaki, as a mentally sound senior high school student, was under tremendous pressure, and the younger ones like Yanami must not have had it any better, so Ukyo copied a short piece of inspiration from the Internet for each of them.
The four students who were taking the supplementary course responded to him with four question marks in unison, and even showed concern for his mental state.
Lemon thought he was crazy, Xiaoju thought he might have a mental problem because he was tutoring four poor students at the same time, and Tian Aixing suddenly started sending voice messages to apologize, saying that he had caused a lot of trouble recently and that he didn't need to tutor for the next few days. Yanaijian mocked him for not knowing how to give a pre-exam motivational speech, saying that chicken soup for the soul can't really inspire people, and sometimes it's better to send a "good luck tomorrow (exclamation mark)" to get more effective.
All right.....
Ukyo felt that he had done something unnecessary. It seemed that his students had a good ability to withstand pressure.
Time flies and it is the day before the exam.
Ukyo actually sent each of them a "Good luck tomorrow!"
Then I got four different cute emoticon packs for girls.
"This should be fine, right?" Youjing sighed.
"I hope they all do well in their exams tomorrow."
........
...
The next morning.
The first subject I study when I get up early is mathematics.
Youjing took a quick look at the test paper and found it not difficult.
This "not difficult" is not based on his standards, but is based on the difficulty of daily math exams. If judged by the "Ukyo standard", then this paper is obviously too simple.
Ukyo's gaze passed through the three vertical rows of desks and chairs and looked at Yanami in the corner. She didn't frown, nor did she have any other ferocious expression. She started answering the questions as soon as the test paper was handed out, with an unprecedented serious expression. Ukyo realized in a trance that her goal seemed to be more than just passing the exam.
This guy...could he be trying to get some unprecedentedly amazing score in the exam, and shock everyone in the class with his arrogance as a superman?
Come to think of it, who among those who have worked hard doesn’t want to be an excellent student?
Just like the excitement of playing an upgrade game comes from the upgrade after the boring monster-killing, the boring endless learning and repeated wrong questions are ultimately just for the sake of having a good grade on the transcript.
But...can she do it?
Ukyo stopped thinking about it and focused on the test paper.
He estimated that it would take him 40 minutes to answer the questions, but he actually spent minutes. He could immediately understand the steps and ideas for solving the questions with just one glance. The rest was just useless mental calculations and necessary writing time.
His handwriting was very neat, showing no sign of haste in the calculations.
After finishing the test, he could hear all kinds of typing sounds on the computer. The girl named Sada who sat on his right would start to get nervous at this time, because she couldn't do as much as Ukyo with a calculator. Sada began to glance at her test paper from time to time. The invigilator, Mr. Koba, frowned slightly and walked between the two of them, blocking her gaze with his body.
Ukyo didn't mind giving his test papers to other students in the class to copy, but whether or not they could copy them depended on their abilities.
Sada's classmates' cheating methods were obviously inferior.
If you stretch your neck to copy the answers, it would be strange if you don’t get caught.
"Ukyo, are you done with the examination?" Teacher Xiaoba, who was standing beside him, suddenly asked.
"Yeah." Ukyo nodded.
"Then hand in the paper."
"Row."
It seemed that Teacher Xiaoba didn't want him to stay in the classroom any longer.
It was the first final exam after the school was closed. It seemed that the indicators issued by the school leaders were quite strict. Ukyo often saw strange invigilators with badges hanging on their heads walking back and forth in the corridor. Considering Ishifugao's current rapidly growing status in Toyohashi City, it was understandable that the invigilation was stricter.
After handing in his paper, You Jing left the classroom through the back door.
Although he quietly left through the back door, his departure still caused quite a stir. Most people were puzzled as to how he could answer so quickly. Looking down at the test paper they had only answered half or a third of, they...
Anxious.
........
...
noon.
Run by the supernatural society.
The four little ones under Youjing were comparing answers with each other. Youjing suggested that they should review the afternoon's history lesson in advance, but no one listened to him. Everyone was obsessed with the answers from the morning.
Lemon and Xiaoju were caught in a strange cycle of scratching their heads. Their answers were always different from the other two, while Yanami and Tianai's answers were always the same.
If the two of them also came up with different answers, they would naturally turn their gaze towards Ukyo.
After Ukyo gave the answer, Yanami would always look sad and regretful.
But Ukyo thought her expression was a little strange.
I always feel that she did the right thing, but just pretended to do something wrong.
In the ACGN world, "black-bellied" refers to someone who appears kind and gentle on the surface, but is dark and evil inside. It also refers to someone who appears gentle on the outside, but is actually malicious. However, the intention is not absolute, and it does not necessarily refer to a villain who is cunning and treacherous inside. In the ACGN world, "black-bellied" is often widely used as a "cute attribute".
Yanami, who was comparing answers with his friends, looked very sinister, and no one knew who he learned this from.
.......
...
The three-day exam ended quickly.
Lemon and a few others organized a party. Their three teachers, Mitsuki and Chihaya all came, only Ukyo didn't go.
Tomorrow is the 23rd. I have to go to school in the morning to get my report card and look at the list. Then it will be Christmas holiday on the 24th. Although I have a lot of free time and I don’t have to get up early the next day, Youjing still refused the party.
He was preparing the luggage he needed to take to Beijing the day after tomorrow at home. Fang Huyuan informed him that the second-year high school field trip also had a stop in Beijing. Students who wanted to study the supernatural in the future would go to Beijing for a three-day "supernatural investigation". Ordinary field trips would not include a Beijing stop, and would not even leave Japan.
Beijing is very big, and the probability of them meeting is very small. Besides, he went there just for the auto show and probably wouldn't stay long.
When I was packing my luggage, I hesitated for a long time about whether to bring a knife.
Finally, he decided to bring it with him, so that he would be prepared in case of any accidents. His relevant supernatural documents were very complete, and he was allowed to bring a knife into the country, but not a gun. No matter whether he was a professional exorcist or a supernatural detective, he was not allowed to bring a gun into China. If there was a mission required, the domestic exorcism organization would provide additional guns.
Youjing plans to travel by boat this time.
Because Yanami had been on a plane but never on a boat, and many people may not have the experience of riding a boat in their lifetime, Yanami mentioned it when he bought the ticket. She didn't say explicitly that she wanted to take a boat, but people who often deal with girls know that if they mention a certain means of transportation in some key itineraries, it means they want to take it.
So Youjing booked a ticket from Toyohashi Port to Qingdao Port, and then flew directly from Jiaodong Airport to Beijing Capital Airport.
He has asked for leave tomorrow, the day the results are announced, because there is no need to go.
All high school students care about their grades, but Ukyo thinks grades are the most useless thing.
He must be number one.
Not being present to see the list is more pretentious than being there. Those top students who consider themselves academic masters will probably have a very interesting look on their faces when they find out that even if they try their best, they still can't beat someone who doesn't care about their grades.
Ukyo didn't skip it just to admire the wonderful expressions of the top students.
If that were the case, he should have squatted in a corner and observed secretly on the day the results were announced, instead of making a plan for tomorrow in advance and completely eliminating the school from his schedule.
23rd, Christmas Eve schedule:
At 6:30 am, get up and do morning exercises, such as standing meditation and breathing exercises.
7:30, breakfast.
8:00, voluntary rat removal.
12:00, lunch.
12:45, lunch break.
1:30, voluntary rat removal.
5:30, dinner.
6:30, watch a movie alone.
Yanami recommended him a romantic movie that he was watching, but he didn't want to watch it. He wanted to watch "Wild Robots", which was the only high-scoring movie in Japanese theaters recently. It scored 8.1 on Amazon, while the romantic movie recommended by Yanami only scored 6.9.
9:00, go home, check your luggage and go to bed.
He didn't know whether Yanai would sleep at his house or his own house tomorrow night.
If she slept at his place, he would probably have to tell Yanami that she wouldn't have to prepare dinner tomorrow night.
........
Seven o'clock the next day.
Shifu High School results announcement day.
The students coming and going crowded the bulletin board.
But finding Ukyo's name was not difficult.
He is ranked first, which is the most conspicuous and easiest to see position. If others want to find him, they just need to start from the second place and go down.
Chihaya Asagumo's name was ranked second, and Mitsuki Ayano was ranked fifth. They both smiled knowingly and did not show too much surprise.
Chihaya's results did not improve, but Mitsuki moved up one place. The reason why the former did not move up was that there was no room for promotion ahead, while the latter's promotion room was very small, but Mitsuki also achieved her goal and successfully squeezed into the top five.
Xiaoju looked very embarrassed. She felt speechless every time she came to look at the list. Because of her height, she couldn't see her own results even if she squeezed into the crowd. Lemon's height was also worrying. Although Yanami had an advantage among the girls, for some reason, several tall boys stood in front of her, completely blocking her view.
"Ayano-san! Help me see where I am~!" Yanami said anxiously.
"Mitsuki, there's mine too!" Lemon's voice also came from behind.
Ayano's eyes were always searching the leaderboard. After looking at his own results, he began to look for Lemon's position. Even without her request, Mitsuki would have looked for it.
"As for Lemon... Grade 146!!"
"That's quite an improvement. I remember you were over 200 last time, right?"
