Chapter 241
“Sir?”
She seemed to be addicted to the title and called out again.
It was still a very flat tone of voice, with the usual faint coolness.
Fu Yunshen lifted his head, his eyelashes twitching.
He saw the girl looking at him sideways, one hand still holding her chin up.
A pair of phoenix eyes were foggy and brimming with light.
The sunlight outside the window is like the green hills after the rain, when the rain first breaks and suddenly there are flowers blooming, pouring out a fragrance.
The two very different temperaments of stunning beauty and coolness are perfectly blended in her body.
There was no conflict, but rather a stunning beauty.
After seeing him look over, she raised her eyebrows again.
“Hmm? What did that man promise you?” Fu Yunshen’s fingers that were squeezing the pages of the book paused and the end of his eyes rose, “I’ll double it for you, okay?”
The protection system of ibi was reinforced when he first touched on hacking technology.
If he really let a certain Anonymous hacker alliance boss hack into it, he would be reinforcing it for nothing.
Although he had never fought with Ying Ziyi online, she had even been able to hack the nok forum system, so if she did, the firewall would probably not be able to stop her.
And now, he doesn’t touch anything related to hacking anymore.
If there was a breach in ibi’s firewall, then all those international people hiding in the shadows, and the forces that had been trying to take ibi’s place, would surface one after the other.
“That might not work.” Ying’s tone was quite serious, “He said to give me his newly developed poison.”
After a pause, she added, still serious, “There shouldn’t be a more powerful poisoner than him.”
Fu Yun Shen’s smile narrowed and his eyes narrowed slightly, “The one who sells sunscreen?”
The third place in the poisoner list, he knew.
He had always thought that some mental hospital had left the door open and let people out.
Poisoners were supposed to be out and about, and this guy ended up selling sunscreen on the beach in a big way.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this guy wasn’t doing anything illegal, he would have been arrested a long time ago.
However, there is no better poisoner than that guy.
The number one poisoner on the list has not pa*sed by and no trace of him has been left.
The second on the poisoner list, on the other hand, was a vicious person, and ibi chased him for a long time, but could not put the second on the poisoner list in jail.
Because poison is something that ordinary people can’t handle.
Agents and international police officers, no matter how out of shape they are, are not invulnerable to all poisons.
“It’s him.” Ying yawned, intrigued, “Do you think I should help him?”
“Little friend, no conscience again.” Fu Yunshen closed the book and nestled into the dining chair, “How long have we known each other, and how long have you known him? And this is already helping outsiders bully your brother?”
It was clear to him that the purpose of her buying poison from this neuro-viral pharmacist.
It was to test the number one spot on the poisoner list.
The Bevin family said they had contacted this very mysterious Poison Master List number one, he was too lazy to check, and he didn’t know if it was true or not.
But it was 80% likely that it was false.
He also had no need for a poisoner right now, and wasn’t concerned about it.
“Just saying.” Ying Ziyi was not slow, raising her hand to tap on the computer, “Sir, don’t mind.”
Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows, his expression lazy, “Yoyo, are you deliberately bullying me?”
“No.” Ying Ziyi said, “It’s really a question, if you agree, I’ve already done it.”
Fu Yunshen: “……”
OK.
Their little friend, she recognizes money but not people.
But it’s good, at least the possibility of being cheated is not so high.
On the computer screen.
[Please take a pill]: How is it? What’s up, God? My friend really didn’t bother me about anything, we’re all good citizens, we’re not breaking the law, it’s just that he disguised himself as a fugitive international criminal to get into ibi headquarters.
The first thing you need to do is to get into the headquarters of the ibi and save the kid and let him out.
[Coke and Fries Milk Tea]: This won’t work.
The actual fact is that you’ll be able to get a lot more than just a few of these. You’re the best at hacking into the nok forum system! You’re much better than that wimpy Anonymous hacker league boss.
I’m also a wimp.
[Buy you a pill]: ……
The first time I saw you, I was a little bit of a jerk.
I’d be a sinner if I sent you in.
[Buy you a pill]: Or give it to you for free, Great God, I’ve posted a trade message in the trade section, remember to go there, come to my side then and buy a few more bottles of sunscreen to patronise my business [shy.jpg].
Ying didn’t reply to him again, went to the trading section and clicked on the order.
The courier logistics showed that she would be able to receive it tomorrow morning.
This speed was already very slow.
Because for things like poisons, everything had to be transported carefully.
Especially the poisons made by this neuro-virus pharmacist were all sorts of strange shapes.
Ying Zigui closed the computer, looked sideways, and glanced at the book in Fu Yunshen’s hand.
It was a book of Celtic myths.
She had read it too.
One of the most well-known ones was King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
Ying Ziji pondered and poured a gla*s of juice: “No wonder you bought me children’s books.”
Fu Yunshen looked up again, as if he hadn’t understood at first: “Hm?”
A few seconds later, he remembered that it was at the very beginning, when he had bought her some fairy tales specifically to tease her.
Ying finished the juice and had a conclusion, “You’re good at that yourself.”
Saying that, she called out three words slowly and carefully, “Little friend.”
“……”
**
Qing Zhi didn’t even take long to discuss the choice of candidates for the isc direct international competition.
After all, there was only one in the whole school, so it was natural to send the school’s best student.
Who else could be chosen but Ying Zigui?
Rarely did the teachers at Qingzhi agree, even if a few of them were usually bitter rivals.
“Director, it’s just Ying Yuexuan from our cla*s, she heard us discussing the choice of the quota.” Teacher Xu pushed up her gla*ses, “She questioned why we didn’t choose her, saying that she wanted a fair fight with Ying Zigui.”
“A fair competition?” The head teacher listened, “How can we compete?”
If there had been a spare candidate, they would naturally have made the selection across the school first.
But there was no one who could compare with Ying Zigui in terms of academic knowledge.
How could there be a competition?
Teacher Xu was also helpless: “So what do you think?”
“There’s no need for multiple one-offs.” The head teacher shook his head, “Besides, isc’s first international competition is before the entrance exams, so let her prepare for the entrance exams and independent admissions without worrying.”
“It’s more than worth it for her to be distracted from preparing for this.”
Teacher Xu nodded, “That’s what I thought too, I’ll go tell her then.”
“Go ahead.” The head teacher waved his hand, “I’ll go find the headmaster.”
He hummed a little tune all the way to the headmaster’s office, knocked on the door and walked in.
“Headmaster, for the isc place, we’ve finally selected student Ying Zidian.” He said, “Let’s report it now.”
Hearing this, the headmaster was slightly silent for a moment, “Director, wait a moment, in this matter, I have to make a phone call to ask if she is willing.”
“What?” The head teacher was a bit dumbfounded, “How can she be unwilling? What a great opportunity! It’s a direct entry into academia!”
The headmaster thought otherwise and worried, “I’m selling my old face, otherwise she might not even take the entrance exams.”
The head teacher cracked up, “……”
The headmaster picked up the office landline and dialed a number according to the address book.
After three rings, it was picked up.
“Headmaster.”
“It’s me, cla*smate Ying Zidian.” The headmaster swallowed slowly, “There’s a matter here that I might need your help with, namely to help the school enter an international academic competition.”
“It’s a difficult competition and there’s no other suitable candidate for the school apart from you.”
Ying Zigui: “Good.”
“If you don’t have the time, then also-” The headmaster’s eyes glared and the subsequent lobbying words were held back, “You promise?”
“Yes.” The girl, still seemingly sleepy, yawned, “I thought you said you’d help the school?”
“Fine, fine!” The headmaster got excited, “Then I’ll have someone send you the information for the competition in a moment.”
He hung up the phone and all but tried to get up and do a dance.
The head teacher also breathed a sigh of relief, “I’ll report it then?”
“Report it.” The headmaster nodded, “It looks like Qingzhi will definitely have a place in the international competition.”
The head teacher also went out happily.
When he returned to his office, he saw someone waiting for him at his desk.
Ying Yuexuan was so famous that the head teacher recognised her immediately.
Before he could ask him anything, Ying Yuexuan already spoke up, “Director, have the candidates for the places been announced?”
“Yes, it’s out.” The head teacher didn’t hide anything, “I’m going to report Ying Zidian now.”
Ying Yuexuan took a deep breath, “So you won’t even give me the right to compete with her? Is that really fair?”
She was not competing, but this place was very important to her.
If she could go to the international competition and win certain prizes, then she would be able to have a foothold in the academic world.
“Student Ying Yuexuan, the school’s choice of place naturally comes from various considerations.” The academic affairs director collected a smile, “What not to choose you, you should also be clear.”
“I’m not sure.” Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips, “I only know that I was deemed to have lost by you guys without even comparing.”
Hearing this, the head teacher was finally surprised, “Not …… you really don’t know?”
Ying Yuexuan’s fingers tightened, confused: “What are you referring to?”
“The line.” The head teacher said, “Then come and see for yourself.”
He opened the computer and pulled up the mid-term exam results of the previous semester as well as the rankings, and laid them out in front of Ying Yuexuan.
Chapter 242
Ying Yuexuan froze for a moment, not yet understanding what the head teacher was telling her to look at.
That was until she walked over and her eyes fell on the computer screen.
The next second, Ying Yuexuan’s pupils contracted violently and then widened.
Her hands couldn’t help but grab the desk, almost incredulous.
The first line of personal information and results were specifically marked in red.
There was a special note in brackets at the end – the paper for the Talented cla*s, not converted by a factor.
Even though she had done the paper for the Talented Cla*s, Ying Zidian’s results were still above those of the top students in the Science Experimental Cla*s.
Ying Yuexuan’s breath caught in her throat.
In the paper for the Talented cla*s, someone actually got full marks in Maths and Physics?
Of course, Ying Yuexuan knew how difficult the papers for the Talented Cla*s were.
They were written by professors from the Imperial University.
Especially in English, the famous foreign linguists were invited.
Even if she played to her full strength, it was impossible for her to get a full mark.
She had predicted that if she did it carefully, she would be able to have a maximum score of 270 in the science synthesis.
But the difference between 270 and 300 marks was a world of difference.
As for English, some of the questions were so difficult that even a native English speaker couldn’t do them.
When she went over to O Chau, she even brought a set of papers from the Talented Cla*ses and asked the students at Ilan Public School to do them.
Of course, the top few top students she was not qualified to befriend, and the one she knew was a girl who was tenth in her grade.
Eland Public School had got ten places in the final of the isc International Competition and this girl was bound to be chosen.
And for that maths paper in the Talented cla*s, this girl got 138 marks.
So Ying Yuexuan reckoned that the top student in Yilan Public School should have scored 145 or more.
Zhong Zhiwei, on the other hand, scored 120.
In terms of education, Yilan Public School is already ahead of Qingzhi High School and the other two high schools in the capital.
If the two schools were to face each other in the isc international tournament, Qingzhi High School would be powerless.
Eland Public School, which also sends the most students to Norton University every year, has a high international profile.
The reason she went to Yilan Public School as an exchange student was not just to make room for Ying Zidian.
It was also because Ilan Public School would have allowed her to improve better.
But now, Qingzhi …… No, in China, there was someone whose grades could steadily outperform the students of Yilan Public School?
Ying Yuexuan’s throat was a little dry.
“See?” The head teacher saw that she seemed frozen, so he pointed to the first line and said, “It’s not that you weren’t given a chance, it’s that the gap is too big.”
He didn’t think it was good for him to hit her so hard, or to give encouragement. He added, “But Ying Yuexuan, you’re also very good, you spend your time preparing for the isc exam, maybe next year our school can have a double science topper.”
Double science topper, it was self-evident who the other one was.
“I’m sorry, Director.” Ying Yuexuan gently pursed her lips, her eyelashes dropping, “I really don’t know, I don’t have a problem with giving this spot to my sister.”
“But you-” the head teacher paused and changed the appropriate word, “Didn’t you also run to cla*s 19 to give Ying Zidian some foreign study materials?”
Moreover, he saw that those kids in the science experiment cla*s were buying Ying Zidian’s photo and saying that they wanted to hang it on the wall to pay homage.
Basically, no one in the school knows that Ying Zidian is the god of learning.
Ying Yuexuan smiled a little reluctantly for the first time, and her voice was small: “Sorry, Director, I haven’t paid any attention.”
Now she finally understood why the other students in the Talented Cla*s always wanted to say something.
The head teacher didn’t say anything and nodded, “If you really want to participate in isc, you can start with the auditions, the registration is already open.”
“The main thing is that the school only has one place, so one more will let you go.”
Ying Yuexuan didn’t say anything.
There was no way to compare the treatment of the selected ones with that of the direct international competition.
Ying Yuexuan didn’t know how she was going to get home from school.
When she got home, she still didn’t see Ying Tianru.
Ying Yuexuan sat on the sofa and stared.
She felt that everything had changed since she came back.
Whether it was at home or at school, other people’s eyes were no longer following her.
She could clearly feel the change in the attitude of Elder Zhong and Ying Tianru.
They treated Ying Zidian better and avoided her somewhat deliberately.
Is it because she is not their own?
Ying Yuexuan couldn’t tell how she felt.
She suddenly got up, went back to her room and started to pack her bags.
When she went out with her suitcase, she bumped into Zhong Manhua who was returning from shopping.
The smile on Zhong Manhua’s face disappeared and she was panicked.
She didn’t care about the shopping bags she was carrying, she grabbed the suitcase out of Ying Yuexuan’s hand: “Xiao Xuan, what are you doing? Your big brother disobeyed and ran away, you want to break your mother’s heart too?”
Ying Yuexuan’s body stiffened: “Mom, no, I just want to live at school because I want to enter an international competition and it’s convenient for me to be at school.”
Only then did Zhong Manhua sighed with relief: “What’s the point of living at school, is it as good as home? There’s a driver to take you every day, don’t live at school.”
Saying that, she asked the housekeeper to carry the suitcase away, then beckoned, “Mum bought you some new clothes, come and try them on.”
Ying Yuexuan walked in without moving and swallowed slowly: “Okay. Thank you, Mum.”
**
On the other side.
After the head teacher reported Ying Zidian’s name, he pa*sed her the information on the isc.
The information was a pdf file, hundreds of mb in size.
Ying Zidian opened it and skimmed through it.
Then, she suddenly felt that she had promised the headmaster too quickly.
This competition was a bit too troublesome.
Counting the selection rounds, the preliminaries, the repechage and the international final, the rounds were eight months long.
The international final, which is three rounds, adds up to a month and is not even held in China.
Ying thought about the headmaster, whose old man no longer had much hair on his head, and decided that it would be better to care and care and just not break his heart.
The final was in teams of six, each responsible for a few areas of science, and she was still able to slack off.
It was at this point that the mobile phone next to the mouse rang.
Ying picked it up, “Hello? Hello.”
The caller was a professor from the Physics Department of the Imperial University, Zuo Li, who had once personally run to Qingzhi.
“Student Ying, you know about isc, right?”
“Well, I’ve just finished reading the information.”
“I knew it, the person Qingzhi sent must be you.” Zuo Li was quite happy, “But even if you weren’t sent, with your ability, it would be easy to kill your way into the international final.”
“That won’t happen.” Ying Zigui was ruthless, “The tournament is too long and tiring.”
“……”
Zuo Li choked for a moment and changed the subject.
“Do you know why we have this preconception of isc?” He was mystified, “It’s because of a man in history, you’ve heard of Simon Brand, I think?”
“I have.” Ying went on to look through the information, “A very famous scientist.”
“Yes, he was a miracle in science! A genius!” Zuo Li got excited, “He’s an all-rounder in science, he’s involved in physics and chemistry.”
“Moreover, he was also an astronomer, one of the first to come up with the idea of space ships in the 17th century, and later people found models of the ships he drew in his manuscripts.”
“His ideas were so ahead of their time that some of them coincided with modern science, and he even wrote about the origin of the Big Bang and space-jumping technology, terms that didn’t exist in those days.”
Ying pondered for a moment, “So, the isc was held because of him?”
“Of course, there is his reason, but there is another most important one.” Zuo Li grew more and more excited as he spoke, “His manuscript also records one of his students, Gwen Brown.”
Ying’s hand lurched.
“He said that this student of his must be even better than him in his future achievements, so many theories, which were discussed by their master and disciple together.” Zuo Li continued, “Except that this Gwen Brown had no intention of staying in academia and later went into hiding, so she’s not very famous.”
“So we thought, there were geniuses like this centuries ago, humanity is progressive, there must be more now, isc is to discover these geniuses and give them the best resources.”
Ying Ziji pressed his head and didn’t say anything.
“Hey, student Ying, why are you silent?” Zuo Li was surprised, “Are you also thinking that this pair of master and disciple is really great?”
“No.” Ying was expressionless, “I was thinking, if I could travel back in time, I’d go and burn Simon’s manuscript.”
The deal was to leave her name out.
The old man is not true to his word.
Zuo Li: “????”
Finally, to his bewilderment, the call ended.
Ying Ziji got up and went to pour water.
The door was knocked on at that moment.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
Instead of knocking, it was more like banging.
It was rough and violent.
In just two seconds, the heavy security door fell down with a bang.
Ying Zidian turned her head.
Then, she took off the hair band on her wrist and started to tie her hair.
