Chapter 26: Transferred to the Key Class!?
Everyone’s gaze shifted to Xu Xiaona.
Xu Xiaona pointed at Fang Yu and said, “As everyone knows, for more than two years in high school, Fang Yu’s grades have only been average in our class. How could he suddenly score 723 points, such a high score?”
As soon as she said this, everyone snapped back to reality and felt it was indeed strange.
Fang Yu had always ranked around thirty in the class, with a score of just over four hundred. This time, he unexpectedly scored 723 points, which was an exaggerated improvement.
“So I believe that Fang Yu must have copied Tang Xiaorou’s exam paper to achieve this score. Teacher, I strongly request that Fang Yu’s score be invalidated,” Xu Xiaona looked at Huang Hai and said.
“Teacher, Fang Yu usually either sleeps on his desk during class or reads novels. Yet he managed to cheat and score 723 points. The existence of someone like him is an insult to other students who study hard!” Jiang Yue also stood up, glaring at Fang Yu and speaking loudly.
“Teacher, we also think Fang Yu’s score should be invalidated!”
“He has always ranked behind me, and now he suddenly comes in first in the entire grade? How is that possible?”
“Teacher, Fang Yu really cheated!”
…
Many students who already disliked Fang Yu began to stir up trouble.
This was exactly the situation Jiang Yue and Xu Xiaona wanted to see.
Jiang Yue looked at Fang Yu, who had a blank expression, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, filled with the pleasure of revenge.
Still pretending to be calm? I want to see how long you can keep this up!
Just as everyone was attacking Fang Yu, Liu Fatty suddenly stood up.
“Are you all crazy? Fang Yu scored 723 points this time! That’s 16 points higher than Tang Xiaorou! If he really copied Tang Xiaorou’s paper, how could his score be higher than hers? Why don’t you try copying a 723-point paper for me to see?”
As soon as he said this, the voices attacking Fang Yu in the class quieted down significantly.
Liu Fatty made a valid point. If Fang Yu had really copied Tang Xiaorou, why would his score be so much higher? Even coming in first in the entire grade?
“How is that impossible? What if after copying, Fang Yu noticed some obvious mistakes in Tang Xiaorou’s answers and corrected them? It’s just 16 points; if he spots a few errors and corrects them, he could easily score 723 points!” Xu Xiaona glared at Liu Fatty and said.
“You, you’re just grasping at straws! How could Tang Xiaorou, who scored 707 points, make so many obvious mistakes…” Liu Fatty’s face turned red as he retorted.
“Quiet!” At this moment, Huang Hai finally spoke up.
With the homeroom teacher speaking, everyone in the class naturally fell silent.
Huang Hai looked at Tang Xiaorou and frowned, asking, “Tang Xiaorou, during the exam, did you notice Fang Yu copying your paper?”
Tang Xiaorou stood up and firmly said, “No.”
“Haha, who doesn’t know how close you are with Fang Yu? Even if he copied, you probably wouldn’t mind… No, maybe you even let him copy on purpose,” Jiang Yue sneered.
“You!” Tang Xiaorou’s face flushed as she glared at Jiang Yue.
“What? Am I wrong?” Jiang Yue fearlessly met Tang Xiaorou’s gaze.
Tang Xiaorou took a deep breath, ignoring Jiang Yue, and looked at Huang Hai, saying, “Teacher, I can prove one thing. During the exam, Fang Yu often only worked on the paper for half an hour before sleeping on his desk. He didn’t have time to copy my paper at all.”
As soon as she said this, it not only failed to prove Fang Yu’s innocence but also made things even more puzzling.
If he only worked on the paper for half an hour and then slept, how did Fang Yu manage to come in first in the entire grade?
Was Tang Xiaorou treating her classmates and homeroom teacher Huang Hai as fools?
Jiang Yue directly laughed mockingly, not saying anything further.
She didn’t need to say more.
Sure enough, after hearing Tang Xiaorou’s words, Huang Hai’s expression darkened.
“Fang Yu, come with me to the office. The rest of you, self-study!”
After saying this, Huang Hai left the classroom.
Fang Yu sighed, closed his novel, and looked at Tang Xiaorou, saying, “I’m really curious about how your brain works.”
“But what I said is the truth,” Tang Xiaorou replied, feeling wronged.
Fang Yu stood up and followed Huang Hai out of the classroom.
A wave of mocking cheers erupted in the class, and a few even clapped.
Fang Yu was finally going to get in trouble!
…
“Fang Yu, tell me honestly, did you cheat?” Huang Hai asked with a dark expression in the office.
“No,” Fang Yu replied.
“If you’re being honest, I’ll only revoke your score. But if you’re not honest and I find out later that you cheated, the consequences will be serious,” Huang Hai said solemnly.
“Then go ahead and investigate,” Fang Yu said.
When Fang Yu was younger… that is, two or three thousand years ago, he was a very studious person.
At that time, he hoped to use studying to distract himself from his desire and focus on the foundation-building stage.
During that period, Fang Yu read various books from ancient and modern times, both domestic and foreign, and learned almost all the knowledge he could acquire. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he knew astronomy and geography.
Some high school knowledge was simply child’s play for Fang Yu.
The reason he only scored 723 points this time was that 723 points were enough to win against Tang Xiaorou. If he wanted to, he could have scored even more exaggerated results.
“I’ll compare your papers with Tang Xiaorou’s right now! If the similarity is high, you will undoubtedly be cheating!” Huang Hai said, then left the desk.
Five minutes later, Huang Hai returned with a stack of exam papers.
Many teachers who had been quietly observing the situation also gathered around.
A student from Class Two suddenly scored first in the entire grade; how could the other teachers not be concerned?
Especially the homeroom teacher of the key class, Cheng Hongmei, who believed that Fang Yu had cheated without a doubt. Otherwise, how could a student from an ordinary class suppress all the top students from the key class? Where would she put her face?
“Teacher Huang, we must take this matter seriously! In the final sprint stage of senior year, we cannot tolerate any cheating students!” Cheng Hongmei glanced at Fang Yu and said.
“Exactly, cheating right before the college entrance exam is just self-deception! The most critical thing is that if we don’t give the students an explanation, it will affect their motivation to study!” said Hu Bo, the math teacher from the key class.
“That’s right…” Several other teachers echoed.
Ding Ran was also among these teachers, but she didn’t speak, only silently observing the silent Fang Yu.
This student looks so familiar…
Huang Hai carefully compared Tang Xiaorou’s and Fang Yu’s exam papers, and his expression gradually became strange.
After comparing the comprehensive exam papers, he raised his head and glanced at Fang Yu, his eyes filled with shock.
“Teacher Huang, how is it? Did he cheat?” Cheng Hongmei asked eagerly.
Huang Hai took a deep breath and shook his head, saying, “No, he absolutely did not cheat.”
“How is that possible? Let me see!” Cheng Hongmei picked up the exam papers on Huang Hai’s desk and began to compare them carefully.
Except for multiple-choice questions that have unique answers, in the calculation and application questions, Fang Yu and Tang Xiaorou’s solving methods were completely different. Fang Yu used a clearer and more concise solving process, with no errors at all.
Cheng Hongmei picked up the comprehensive exam paper and the Chinese exam paper, and the results were the same.
Fang Yu’s answers were completely different from Tang Xiaorou’s, and Fang Yu’s answers were even better!
“This…” The more Cheng Hongmei looked, the more shocked she became because Fang Yu’s answers were simply outstanding.
“When I was grading, I thought he did particularly well, but since the papers were sealed without names, I didn’t know whose paper it was,” said Zhu Jianliang, the math teacher from Class Two.
“Right, when I was grading, I also came across a student whose reading comprehension and essay were particularly good… It turned out to be Fang Yu,” said Cao Dan, the Chinese teacher from Class Two, who was also nearby.
Huang Hai looked at Fang Yu, momentarily unsure of what to say.
“Fang Yu… you can go back now. My previous suspicions about you were wrong, and I’m very sorry. I will clear your name in front of the whole class later,” Huang Hai said after a moment of silence.
“Okay.” Fang Yu turned and left.
Ding Ran stared at Fang Yu’s departing figure, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her.
She suddenly remembered what had happened that afternoon!
This student… Oh my god! In my memory, he seemed to have been hit by a truck… and then…
The more Ding Ran recalled, the more frightened she became, increasingly horrified.
…
Fang Yu returned to the classroom, feeling the mocking gazes around him.
“Cheating dog, how dare you come back!” Jiang Yue said sarcastically.
Fang Yu ignored her and directly walked back to his seat.
“Are you okay?” Tang Xiaorou asked with concern.
“What could possibly be wrong?” Fang Yu retorted.
Less than five minutes after Fang Yu sat down, Huang Hai arrived at the classroom door.
“Fang Yu and Tang Xiaorou, come out for a moment,” Huang Hai called.
Tang Xiaorou glanced at Fang Yu, wondering if something had happened.
Could it be that Fang Yu really copied her?
No way…
As the two walked out of the classroom, the class erupted into a frenzy.
“Hahaha… Fang Yu really got caught cheating! Even Tang Xiaorou was called out!”
“I think Tang Xiaorou deliberately let Fang Yu copy! Serves her right!”
“I can’t wait to see how this ends! This matter is known throughout the entire grade! Tang Xiaorou can’t possibly rely on the Tang family to cover it up again, right?”
Xu Xiaona pinched Jiang Yue’s face and said, “Yueyue, didn’t I say I would help you get revenge?”
Jiang Yue was filled with the joy of revenge, smiling, “Xiaona, you’re the best to me.”
Outside the classroom, Huang Hai looked at Tang Xiaorou and Fang Yu, saying, “Just now, the guidance office notified me…”
“Due to your outstanding scores, it’s not suitable for you to stay in Class Two any longer. The guidance office has decided to transfer both of you to the key class.”
“Ah?” Tang Xiaorou initially thought something serious had happened, but it turned out she was being transferred back to the key class.
“After class, you can move your books and switch classes,” Huang Hai said.
Seeing that Fang Yu and Tang Xiaorou had no objections, Huang Hai walked into the unusually lively classroom and said loudly, “Quiet, I have something to clarify.”
