The teacher immediately checked and found that Su Yueya had indeed answered all the questions, and comparing the handwriting, the note was not written by her.
Then, she compared it with Ma Xiaoxiao's handwriting and found that it was not written by Ma Xiaoxiao either.
Where did this note come from?
"Who exactly threw it to Su Yueya?" The teacher looked across the entire examination room.
Everyone fell silent.
They were all listening intently to the commotion, but now the fire has spread to them.
Finally, the two teachers discussed it and decided to let all the students continue answering questions to ensure that everyone could get a score—after all, they couldn't let cheating affect the scores of everyone in the exam room.
As for the cheaters, their scores can be canceled after the facts are investigated.
The matter was quickly reported to the head of the teaching department.
After the exam, no one in the examination room was allowed to leave, pending a thorough investigation.
Counselor Zhong Yutong was also called over.
As soon as Zhong Yutong saw Ma Xiaoxiao and Su Yueya, she felt something was wrong. Why were these two again?
"Su, Ma, do you have anything to say?" the dean of students asked. He had personally compared the handwriting on the note with that of any other student in the examination room.
So where did this note come from, and how did it end up in Su Yueya's desk drawer?
"Director, I'll say it again. I finished answering the questions and was about to hand in my paper when this note flew over out of nowhere. I immediately drove back in the direction it came from and saw Ma Xiaoxiao with her head down, so this note must be hers."
"Su Yueya, don't make false accusations. The handwriting on the note is not mine at all. I stand by what I said earlier. I was just reciting the textbook in my head when I saw your hand moving around in the desk drawer, so I reported you."
For a time, the two had conflicting accounts, making it impossible to determine who was telling the truth.
The problem fell to the head of the teaching department.
"Su Yueya, tell me the truth, does this have anything to do with you?" Zhong Yutong walked up to Su Yueya and asked in a low voice.
"Counselor, it really wasn't me. Why would I need to cheat?"
Su Yueya wasn't exaggerating; after all, her usual grades speak for themselves, and the results for the previous six days were already out.
Whether or not cheating is necessary, it's actually quite easy to tell.
Given Ma Xiaoxiao's previous actions against Su Yueya, it's understandable that Zhong Yutong would have a preconceived notion that Su Yueya is innocent.
“Now you two have conflicting accounts, and the proctor didn’t notice anything amiss. What do you think? Should we still pursue the matter of cheating?” Zhong Yutong asked.
The dean of students looked very grim.
After all, all the students in the exam room are here, and this matter will definitely spread. When all the students know that cheating has occurred, but there is no result, won't that make the school lose face?
If the dean investigates, he, as the head of academic affairs, will be held accountable.
“Su Yueya’s grades have always been excellent. In my opinion, she has no reason to cheat,” Zhong Yutong said.
The head of academic affairs looked at the compiled report card and nodded in approval.
If this matter isn't pushed forward, it might really just fizzle out because of Su Yueya's usually excellent performance.
Ma Xiaoxiao absolutely would not allow this to happen. She pulled this stunt just to ruin Su Yueya's reputation and invalidate her grades!
“Director, counselor, Su Yueya has missed at least half a month of classes, including two regular assessments. The fact that she can still get such good grades proves that she cheated, doesn’t it?” Ma Xiaoxiao questioned.
Su Yueya knew she would say that.
"You deliberately didn't tell me the assessment content before, but I still got the first place in the assessment, didn't I?" Su Yueya retorted.
Ma Xiaoxiao's face immediately turned ugly.
That incident back then caused her to be kicked out of the self-study class, and she already harbored resentment in her heart.
"These are two different things. Su Yueya, are you mixing them up just to cover up the fact that you cheated?"
Su Yueya sneered. It seemed that Ma Xiaoxiao was determined to take the blame upon herself.
"Teachers, may I see what's on the note?" Su Yueya asked, already having made up her mind.
“Okay,” the head of academic affairs said.
He can't judge for sure right now, but if the two students can find their own evidence to support their views, that would be a good thing for him.
Su Yueya checked the contents of the note. It was indeed the answer to the question on the exam paper, and it was indeed the correct answer. However, the problem was that the contents of the note were incomplete.
The slip of paper contained the answers to three open-ended questions.
"Teacher, could you please take out my exam paper and Ma Xiaoxiao's exam paper from today and compare them together?" Su Yueya asked again.
Su Yueya didn't know how Ma Xiaoxiao's test paper turned out, but she knew very well how she answered the questions.
"Okay." The head of the teaching department nodded.
"I'd like to trouble you again, Director, to provide a summary of the exam results from the previous six days. I'm confident I can prove my innocence," Su Yueya said.
"good."
Seeing Su Yueya's attitude, Zhong Yutong had even more confidence in her.
No matter what request Su Yueya made, she always spoke up for her.
Once everything was in place, Su Yueya glanced at Ma Xiaoxiao before speaking.
Ma Xiaoxiao was extremely nervous, not knowing what tricks Su Yueya was up to, but dared not show the slightest hint on the surface.
"Su Yueya, just admit it! All these tricks are a waste of everyone's time!" Ma Xiaoxiao retorted stubbornly.
The exam room was mostly filled with students from self-study classes, and because of Fang Bo's cheating incident, none of them were able to leave after the exam.
At the same time, these people also knew about Ma Xiaoxiao's past actions against Su Yueya.
“Ma, we’re not in a hurry. We’ll have to wait for the results this afternoon anyway. So let’s see clearly whether Su cheated or not.”
"That's right, Su has always been number one in her class. I'd like to see who gave her the answer."
"Yes, we're not in a hurry!"
Public opinion overwhelmingly favored Su Yueya, which filled Ma Xiaoxiao with intense hatred.
“Ma Xiaoxiao, don’t worry. Everyone can leave today, but you definitely can’t,” Su Yueya said firmly.
She had already looked at Ma Xiaoxiao's exam paper.
Indeed, the handwriting is different.
But the content doesn't lie.
"Teacher, you can compare the answers to these three questions on the slip of paper with the answers that Ma Xiaoxiao and I gave to these three questions. You will see that the answers on the slip of paper are obviously not as complete as mine. There are several key points that are not mentioned."
"And coincidentally, although Ma Xiaoxiao's answers on the test paper were different in word choice and sentence structure, the key points she missed exactly matched the answers on the note."
"I don't think it's that much of a coincidence, is it? That the person who wrote this note and Ma Xiaoxiao are both only capable of answering at this level?"
