Chapter 24: The Scholarly Competition
A few days after the plank road turmoil, a "middle school students' knowledge quiz bidding competition" that swept the province, commonly known as the Xueba Competition, was officially launched. Hundreds of outstanding leaders from major universities in the province represent the entire school to compete for the ranking of the competition.
According to the usual practice, in order not to affect the review of the seniors in the third year of high school, the school has always sent the students who ranked in the top three in the second year of high school to participate in the competition. Therefore, the places in this year's Xueba Competition fell on Xu Mubai, Su Mu and Liu Xiaoqian without exception.
As soon as the news was released, all kinds of envious and jealous eyes on the campus, like a downpour, fell on Xu Mubai and them, eager to replace them. No way, according to past experience, if the student representative achieves excellent results in the competition, there will be a bonus of ten points in the college entrance examination.
In this era when one more point in the college entrance examination can bring down a large number of students, who can not be jealous and envious! However, the achievements of Xu Mubai and the three of them are obvious to all in the whole grade, no matter how envious and jealous everyone is, they can only stare dryly.
Others may be envious and jealous, but Yuxin will only be sincerely happy for them. After hearing the news, everyone was overjoyed and ran over to ask for a celebration.
It's just that when they walked to the door of Su Mu's classroom, they didn't find Su Mu's figure. After inquiring, I learned that Su Mu, Xu Mubai, and Liu Xiaoqian were led to the office building by the classmates of the student union. In desperation, everyone had no choice but to run around again and be tired.
Everyone waited on the bench in front of the office building for more than half an hour, only to see Su Mu and Xu Mubai each holding a stack of information, about the thickness of a dictionary, and walked out helplessly. followed by Liu Xiaoqian, who also looked helpless.
Yuxin and a few people greeted her, and Duoduo spoke first: "Congratulations! Two great talents! For the sake of our waiting, shouldn't you reward us! ”
Xu Mubai laughed and said, "Yes! I have all the information in my hand, and I will reward you with all of it, do you want it? ”
Duoduo replied to him directly: "Get out!" ”
"Haha!" Everyone covered their mouths and laughed collectively.
After laughing, Xu Mubai said with a bitter face: "When I was selected, I thought it was a good errand, after all, the college entrance examination can add points!" But when the dean handed me the papers, my heart burst on the spot! ”
As he spoke, Xu Mubai directly handed them the pile of information. Everyone flipped through it casually, and suddenly felt dizzy. It is densely packed with all kinds of questions and answers. Casually estimate, there are at least more than 20 questions on one page. There are more than 180 pages in a stack of materials, which means that there are at least 3,600 questions in the entire stack.
Xiao Zuo flipped through it for a while, and asked casually: "Xu Mubai!" How much time do you have to prepare? ”
When Xu Mubai heard this, he raised a finger at them.
"A month?" The crowd asked.
"No!" Xu Mubai shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's only a week." ”
"Isn't it! Isn't it to memorize more than 3,600 questions in a week? When everyone heard this, they were collectively speechless for a while.
"That's right! That's why we have such a headache. Xu Mubai rubbed his aching forehead, sat down on the chair next to him and sighed: "The most important thing is that we can't lose yet." Otherwise, it will affect the reputation of the school. ”
Originally, Xu Mubai and they were able to participate in the competition, and everyone was proud of them. However, after inquiring about the situation, everyone could only mourn in silence for them in their hearts.
At this moment, Su Mu also followed Xu Mubai and sat down on the chair next to him with a sad face. And Liu Xiaoqian, because she was not too familiar with them, sat alone and silently on the bench opposite.
Su Mu suddenly spoke: "Duoduo! Among us, you have a lot of ideas, I wonder if you have any good ideas? ”
Duoduo tilted his head and thought for a while: "There is no good idea, but there is a bad idea." ”
"Tell me about it!" When everyone heard this, they were all interested, and they all showed a look of listening to each other. Of course, including Liu Xiaoqian on the other side.
Duoduo pondered for a while before he said lightly: "According to what you said, you are three people going to participate in the competition together, right?" In other words, whoever answers correctly will be counted as your score. In this case, you might as well divide the information into three equal parts, and everyone only needs to remember one-third, which is much easier. ”
This sentence was like a morning bell in the evening, which made Xu Mubai and the others wake up all of a sudden. Xu Mubai jumped up ecstatically, hugged Duoduo directly and kissed him, "Baby! You're the best! Thank you so much for making our burden a lot easier. ”
Duoduo was affirmed by Xu Mubai, and she was overjoyed for a while, and she laughed happily. Everyone looked at them happily, but Liu Xiaoqian next to her lowered her head and couldn't see the expression on her face clearly.
After arguing for a while, Yu Xin suddenly remembered something and said, "Xu Mubai! If you're just competing for memory this time, I can recommend you a humanoid computer with the ability to remember! ”
"Chen Yifan!" Only then did everyone remember that there was indeed such a powerful existence in City No. 1 Middle School.
As soon as Su Mu heard Chen Yifan's name, he couldn't help but pout, looking unhappy. Everyone didn't know what he was thinking, and they all snickered. Xu Mubai sighed: "It's a pity that he is not a sophomore in high school, otherwise our winning rate will increase a lot." ”
Su Mu glanced at him and said, "I admit that he has a strong memory, but the competition is not rote memorization." ”
Xu Mubai shook the pile of information in his hand and said, "Brother! At least half of it is by rote memorization, right? That's what the Dean of Students said to us personally. ”
Belch! When Su Mu heard this, he was speechless.
Liu Xiaoqian came over at this time and said, "Xu Mubai! In that case, you might as well discuss with the Dean of Students to see if you can add another spot. ”
"Oh! Yes! Xu Mubai immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the teaching director. After a phone call, Xu Mubai gestured to them and said, "It's done!" ”。
"Yay!" The crowd cheered collectively.
Su Mu said with a puzzled expression: "Old Xu! Isn't there a limit to the number of places to play? Why would he agree, Director? ”
Xu Mubai said with a smile: "The director told me that there is not much difference between going to three people and going to four people, and the most important thing is to look at the individual's on-the-spot performance." In fact, the trio inherited from the old headmaster. When the city No. 1 middle school was brilliant, it won three championships in a row. In order to quell the discontent of other schools, from that year on, the four-member group of the city No. 1 middle school became a trio. ”
"Oh!" Everyone didn't expect that there was a story in it, and they were all surprised. Duoduo opened his mouth and asked, "Xu Mubai! So why is there another place this time? ”
Xu Mubai smiled bitterly: "Because the No. 1 Middle School in the city has not won the ranking for several years, several school leaders above are anxious. As soon as he heard that there was a perverted existence like Chen Yifan in the school, the teaching director nodded and agreed without saying a word. ”
"Alright! Since that's the case, let's go talk to Chen Yifan! With that, Duoduo took the lead and left. Seeing this, the others hurriedly followed her. Only Su Mu hung at the back, looking unhappy.
Yu Xin walked over, pinched his cheek, and said with a smile: "Stingy! Even a little kid, you have to be jealous with him, and you are not ashamed! With that, he gave him a blank look, turned and left.
Su Mu looked at the ridiculed eyes cast by everyone, and could only smile bitterly.
.
When he walked to Chen Yifan's classroom, everyone found that he was having a lot of trouble with a few girls in the class.
"Yo! This kid's femininity seems to be pretty good! Duoduo laughed, and then shouted: "Chen Yifan!" ”
Chen Yifan followed the sound and saw that it was them, so he hurriedly ran out and said, "Senior sister! What are you looking for me? ”
Duoduo laughed and said, "It's not that we are looking for you for something, but what they are looking for you." Then, Xu Mubai came out and told the cause and effect of the incident.
After Chen Yifan listened, he tilted his head and smiled: "Senior! It's okay to ask me for help. I have one condition, though. ”
"Tell me about it!" Xu Mubai looked at him with interest and said with a smile: "As long as the conditions are not excessive, I will promise you." ”
Chen Yifan asked tentatively, "Oh! Is it okay to ask for a fragrant kiss from the senior sister? ”
As soon as the words fell, several boys from Su Mu collectively burst into foul language: "Get out!" ”
"Don't mind, seniors! I was just joking with you. Chen Yifan rubbed his nose and said seriously: "Actually, my conditions are very simple. Because I don't have a good sense of direction, when I go to the provincial city to participate in the competition, if I have something to go out, I hope you can just take someone out and follow me? ”
"Good! That's absolutely fine. Xu Mubai didn't expect his conditions to be so simple, so he agreed to it in one bite.
The matter was done so smoothly, and everyone was naturally overjoyed. Xu Mubai walked over, put his arm around Chen Yifan's shoulder, and said happily: "It's rare that Brother Yifan is so happy, so shouldn't we also express it?" Let's go! Let's go outside and celebrate a little bit together. ”
"Good!" Everyone answered, followed him hurriedly, and walked out of the school gate.
In a coffee shop diagonally across the street from the school gate, a group of people sat down around the dining table. Xu Mubai handed the pile of information to Chen Yifan and asked, "Brother, take a look for yourself!" How much can you remember in a week? ”
Chen Yifan took the information, and after reading it casually, he said, "Half!" In a week, I can only remember half of it! ”
Halfway? So awesome! When Xu Mubai and the others heard this, their hearts bloomed with joy. Duoduo didn't seem to be satisfied, and frowned: "Chen Yifan! Why can I only remember half of it? Haven't you forgotten it? ”
Chen Yifan smiled bitterly: "Senior sister! Don't think I'm so powerful, can you? The masters who can really do it can only be seen on TV. At most, I have a better memory than others. ”
Oh! I see! When everyone heard this, they collectively realized!
From that day on, Xu Mubai and their four-person competition team were officially established. On the dining table, in the shade of the trees, in the library, on campus...... They can be seen in groups in many places......
