In the fifteenth year after he was mixed up at birth by a mistake, Yi Wei was taken back by his biological parents.
But the title of being the treasure of his parents, his eldest brother’s ...
The first and second days of the competition are for contestants from Zone D and Zone C. For both zones, participants submit their information online to register and then are reviewed and selected for qualification. Because there are so many people, the first and second rounds are similar to thesis defenses, with several judges sitting there to ask questions, then scoring and selecting, which depends on both your ability and luck.
After the first and second days, most people were eliminated. The remaining people from these two zones entered Zone B and had their first real competition with the people from Zone B.
After Michelle's students learned that Yi Wei was coming to participate in the competition, they rushed over to see him. Even though the Psychology Association of Eastburg was the territory of Michelle's arch-enemy Jefferson, they still wanted to help Yi Wei hold up the show so that the people in this association would not dare to underestimate him.
Yi Wei was having dinner with his fellow seniors in the restaurant. Other people who were having dinner in the restaurant couldn't help but look at them sideways. After all, Michelle's students were all very famous people in the psychology community, and the scene of them all gathering together and appearing in public was a very rare sight.
After they finished their meal, they left the restaurant. By this time, the results of today's game should have been announced, so they went to the waiting hall of the game to see the announced results.
After entering the hall, Yi Wei saw Yi Xuan looking lost and shocked, while Yi Xuan was standing beside him, seemingly comforting him.
Yi Wei walked over, looked at Yi Xuan and asked, "Are you eliminated? I knew we wouldn't necessarily meet in the competition, but your ranking is pretty good. Keep working hard. I'm really looking forward to having a head-on competition with you."
Yi Xuan said with an unpleasant expression: "You just relied on your adoptive mother's fame to enter Division A directly. If the two of us were to switch places, you might not be able to enter Division A."
Yi Xuan felt that although Yi Wei had good grades in school and at home, he started late after all. He himself had been studying hard abroad for the past six months and had often praised Yi Wei for his talent. He estimated that he and Yi Wei were on par in ability.
Yi Wei couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Ignorance is bliss. Ask your brother Qi Ran if he dares to have such an idea."
Watching Yi Wei turn and leave, Yi Xuan looked at Qi Ran, waiting for him to tell him that what he had just said was absolutely correct.
Qi Ran sighed and said, "Although Yi Wei had no fame before, no one in the A Division dared to look down on him, because they all knew Mrs. Miller's ability and character, and she was very strict with her students. And if Yi Wei didn't leave the division, according to the rules, the next person Mrs. Miller recommended could only start from the D Division, so if Yi Wei didn't reach a certain level, she wouldn't recommend him to compete."
After hearing this, Yi Xuan felt even more upset, thinking that if he also had Mrs. Miller's guidance, he would definitely not be worse than Yi Wei.
Qi Ran comforted him, "Don't be sad. This is your first time participating in the competition. It's already very good to have such a result. There will be more opportunities in the future. As long as you keep working hard, you will definitely be able to stand out one day."
Yi Xuan nodded, and then said: "Brother Qi Ran, you must win this time and let him know that there are always people who are better than you."
"Don't worry, it's impossible for him to surpass me now. I will make him admit defeat with sincerity." Qi Ran said affirmatively.
The next day, it was finally time for the contestants from Division A to compete.
After passing the metal detection gate, the contestants took turns to draw a room number and then received a special notebook and a pen.
There are three rooms in total. The general association draws lots early in the morning, and then the people sent by the association that is drawn start to decorate the rooms. After the decoration is completed, they lock the door and guard outside. Only after the contestants have drawn the order to enter the room will the door be unlocked.
The first room that Yi Wei and Qi Ran drew was room number three. They looked at each other while standing outside the door waiting. Yi Wei lined up in front of Qi Ran and entered the room first after the door opened. Each contestant had twenty minutes in each room.
Every room here exists in reality, and is not arranged according to the ideas of the people in the association. In other words, there is really a person whose room looks like this in reality. Then each contestant has to judge the personality, habits, age, occupation, etc. of the owner of the room based on the furnishings of the room and all the details in the house. The more correct the analysis, the higher the score.
After all, this is a professional psychology competition, not a competition for psychotherapists. Although there have been competition contents related to psychotherapy in the past, it is not certain whether it will appear this time.
After entering the first room, Yi Wei first took a look at the overall environment. It was a clean and tidy room with everything arranged in order. After taking a general look at the environment, Yi Wei began to carefully observe all the small details. Such a room might be a trap question. Perhaps the owner of the room did not need to clean and tidy up the room by himself, so the true personality and habits of the owner of the room must be analyzed from the small details. All the things that directly proved the specific information of the owner of the room were taken away or painted over.
Yi Wei quickly flipped through every corner, every open place, and even every book. Twenty minutes later, he walked out of the room and went to wait outside the second room. While sitting in line waiting, Yi Wei quickly wrote down his analysis of the room in a notebook.
Qi Ran turned his head and glanced at Yi Wei, and only walked in after the room was rearranged.
After waiting for a while, Yi Wei entered the second room. The second room was a children's room, but in this room, there were different items for children between five and fifteen years old, so it was still difficult to judge the child's specific age.
The third room was a somewhat feminine room, and it looked quite warm and tender. However, when Yi Weiyi came in, he had a strange feeling.
After finishing looking at the third room, Yi Wei walked out of the room and sat down, carefully recalling and thinking about all the details he had seen in the three rooms, and then wrote down all the content that he felt should be supplemented.
After finishing the rewrite, Yi Wei sealed the notebook horizontally and vertically with sealing tape. After handing in the notebook, he went to the hall outside, where his senior brothers and sisters were waiting for him.
Yi Wei was quite confident. He went to the restaurant with his seniors to eat while waiting for the results.
After Yi Wei returned to the waiting room, Qi Ran walked up to him and said, "You are Mrs. Miller's student, so it should be no problem for you to enter the semi-finals. So, what do you think you will rank after the results come out?"
"I think I can rank first." Yi Wei said with a smile.
Qi Ran couldn't help but laugh and said, "Are you too confident or too arrogant?"
"Whether it's self-confidence or arrogance, it's because I have the confidence and capital. I know myself and my opponent, and I'm good at analysis and calculation. Aren't these the basic skills that people like us should have?" Yi Wei looked at Qi Ran and said.
"The results will be out soon, just wait and see." Qi Ran said confidently.
"Okay." Yi Wei replied immediately.
The screen on the wall of the hall lit up. The screen was divided into two parts to announce the results of the competition. One side showed those who entered the semi-finals, and the other side showed those who did not. Everyone gathered around and looked up.
After seeing his ranking, Yi Wei turned around and said to Qi Ran with a smile: "I remember that you seem to have the title and reputation of a genius. So if I beat you today, can I also be considered a genius? I am slightly better than you, thank you for letting me win."
Qi Ran's face became more and more ugly. He stared at the ranking on the screen. He was second, only to Yi Wei, and Yi Wei was ten points higher than him.
Qi Ran stood there motionless. In a moment, the detailed information of the owners of the three rooms would be announced, as well as the analysis notes of each contestant. He wanted to see what he was missing.
Room No. 1 looks like a women's room, but the owner of this room is a man. It should be said that the owner of this room is biologically male, but psychologically female. This man is the manager of an insurance company. He is usually a very gentleman. Except for his lover, his relatives and friends don’t know that there is such a room in his home.
Qi Ran's analysis of the owner of the room was basically correct, with only one mistake. He thought the owner of the room had a boyfriend, but in fact the owner's lover was a woman, and a woman with a particularly masculine personality, because from the small number of cosmetics in the room, it can be seen that the person who used these cosmetics was not the owner of the room, but his girlfriend.
Qi Ran looked at all of Yi Wei's analysis of cosmetics, and found that they were all correct. After reading it, even he felt as if he had suddenly realized something.
Room No. 2 is a children's room. The owner of the room has passed away, and the child's mother remarried and had another child. However, because she missed her deceased child, she kept the room and cleaned it frequently.
The owner of Room No. 3 is a college student. The room is arranged in order, and it can be seen that the owner is a good student. Everything seems normal, but in fact, the owner of the room suffers from severe depression.
Yi Wei and Qi Ran's analysis of Room 2 and Room 3 were similar, but Yi Wei's analysis was more detailed, so he received a higher score.
"Just now I said that knowing yourself and your enemy, and being good at analysis and calculation are the basic skills that people like you and me should have, but I just remembered that I do know your strength, but you don't know mine, so it's normal to make a wrong estimate." Yi Wei said: "But it doesn't matter, from now on, you will have many opportunities to understand my strength in the future."
Qi Ran closed his eyes and clenched his fists.
Yi Wei looked at him and smiled, then turned and left. After walking out of the crowd, he happened to pass by Yi Xuan, and the two looked at each other.
After reading Yi Wei's analysis, others began to discuss it.
"Although I have never heard of this person before, and the records show that this is his first time participating in the competition, he actually scored higher than Allen Chien right away. He really deserves to be Mrs. Miller's student."
"It's amazing that they won first place in their first competition. It turns out that the students taught by Mrs. Miller will never disappoint us, their fans."
"Only 21 years old, too young. Allen Qian has the reputation and title of a genius. This Ivy should be a more powerful genius than Allen Qian, right?"
"Of course. Allen Chien is Jefferson's student, and Ivy is Mrs. Miller's student. Jefferson's students have never surpassed Mrs. Miller's students. Everyone knows that Mrs. Miller has very high standards for selecting students and is very strict with them."
"Even though there has been no news about Mrs. Miller for several years, she still proves her strength in another way. My idol is so amazing."
Qi Ran turned and left amid the discussions of others, and Yi Xuan followed him.
"Mom!" After Yi Wei walked outside, he was surprised to see his adoptive mother coming because she didn't tell him that she would come.
