“Harry, this is my biggest concession. I’ve already found out the truth, and the president of Erling University knows about it too, otherwise he wouldn’t have changed the exam questions. So, whether you want to tell the truth or not is up to you.”

The implication is that if you don't tell the truth, she doesn't mind making the matter public.

The situation is like being at a police station; if you confess voluntarily, you might receive a lighter sentence.

Upon hearing this, Harry panicked.

If this were to be exposed, not only would he lose face, but his country would also be dragged down with him. In that case, his final fate could be even worse.

"But, but that person..."

"Don't worry, I know who that person is. Just tell me how you communicated, how he gave you the answer, and give me his contact information. After that, just do what you were supposed to do. He won't, and doesn't have the ability to, seek revenge on you."

I have a feeling that there are still people named Zero in the US, and this contact information is very important.

Furthermore, Zero may not yet know that she has discovered this. Therefore, this is the best time.

Harlin pursed his lips. "I can tell you, you can punish me, but please, can you not tell anyone? My country..."

"Of course, that's what I promised you. I'll keep my word. Telling you the truth now is also helping yourself."

Upon hearing this, Harlin nodded.

"Actually, my country is not strong, otherwise it wouldn't be in a state of constant war. This time, our team was hard-won. I understand the principle that if you are backward, you will be attacked. Coming to the United States has made me realize this."

He gave a wry smile as he said this.

"I thought my country would keep losing, but the day before the match, an unknown account contacted me..."

Listening to Harlin's account, apart from Qi Jiu and Leng Ruo, the people next to him were becoming increasingly confused.

An unfamiliar email? Zero? What is all this?

"Actually, I didn't originally plan to use that answer, but once I stepped onto the field, I realized how insignificant my country was, and how insignificant I was. I wanted to win, so..."

"Wanting to win is not wrong, and wanting to stand up for your country is not wrong either, otherwise there would be no point in holding this competition. However, you used the wrong method."

How long has the country of Saya been embroiled in war? Let's just say, international news outlets have become too lazy to report it anymore, because they've gotten used to it.

Perhaps not long after Harry was born, his country was embroiled in war, which continues to this day.

I live in constant fear, never knowing when I will die.

"Feel sorry."

Looking at An Ran, Harry lowered his head. "Thank you too."

Thank you for giving him some dignity in the end.

Leaving the classroom, Yu Qi sighed, "Actually, Harry isn't a bad person at heart. He's just too eager to prove himself, to prove that his country still exists in this world. But since he did it, he has to pay the price."

They haven't experienced countries plagued by long-term wars, but looking at their current conditions, they should be able to understand something.

I do read the news from before.

An Ran nodded. "Using the wrong method is also a kind of trouble."

As they spoke, everyone's eyes turned to Qi Jiu.

Seeing this, Qi Jiu nodded. "I will keep my word and not make this public, but their achievements cannot be preserved."

This was her biggest concession.

Abolishing his achievements might not mean much to others, but for their Saya nation, it's a punishment, considering they had worked so hard to assemble this team.

In the principal's office, Qi Jiu skillfully pushed open the door, walked straight to the sofa, and turned on her computer.

The principal, working at his computer, and the director who had given the report earlier: "..."

What is this thing that came in? Why didn't it say a word?

Seemingly noticing the expressions on the faces of the people in front of him, the principal's smile became somewhat forced. "Ahem!"

Hey girl, knock on the door! He's a principal, and now his office is being treated like a playground. Doesn't he have any dignity?

Hearing the cough, the girl turned around.

She should have looked away, because as soon as she turned around, she found that everyone in the office was staring at her, shocked and confused, with a hint of unspoken words on their faces.

Upon seeing this, Qi Jiu was taken aback, pursed her lips, and smiled at them.

"Well, don't be shy, make yourself at home. I have something to do, so I won't entertain you now. Please sit down and have a drink."

All the directors: "..."

Principal: "..." Do you want to hear what you're saying? This is his office!

But seeing her continue turning her head to operate the computer, it seemed that she had something important to do, otherwise she wouldn't have come in and turned on the computer without saying anything.

Fine, then I'll let it go.

"Um, where were we? Let's continue."

Then, a very strange scene unfolded in the principal's office.

In the eastern hemisphere of the president's office, the president and various leaders of Erlin University were gathered together, looking serious as if they were discussing something important.

Meanwhile, in the western hemisphere of the principal's office, a young girl sat on the sofa, intently looking at something on the computer screen, her fingers nimbly tapping away.

Every now and then, you can have a sip of tea next to you.

Neither of them disturbed the other; both were busy with their own work. The scene looked somewhat strange, but it didn't feel out of place.

The girl looked at the contacts and profile pictures on her phone screen but didn't take any further action, as if she was waiting for something.

Even after most of the directors in the principal's office had left, she was still not done.

After taking a sip of water, Principal Erlin took out his treasured tea leaves and brewed them.

For some reason, watching the little girl drink made him a little envious.

Actually, as a Chinese person, I don't have the habit of drinking tea. I guess I've been influenced by this guy to be like this now.

Although he sometimes finds it hard to get used to the taste of tea, he grows to love its aroma over time.

"Qi, why didn't you knock before you came in?"

The girl didn't even turn her head. "When did you see me knock on the door?"

Principal: "..." So you're saying you have a right to not knock now?

Although that's the truth, but...

Thinking about it, the principal snorted irritably, then put down his teacup, slowly walked to Qi Jiu's side, and looked down at the incomprehensible text on the computer screen.
