Chapter 95: After the Storm, Eighty or Ninety Colleges and Universities Across the Country Resumed Enrollment...
Chapter 95: The Aftermath of the Storm
Zhang Xinjun put his hands in front of his eyes. The sunlight coming in through the broken glass window in front of him was a bit dazzling. He couldn't help but squint.
"Where is this?"
Didn’t he discuss with Baocheng and Dachuan how to cause trouble during the Qingming Festival?
Suddenly, my nose started to itch.
"Ah, Achoo!"
He couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row.
"A-choo!"
Um?
This wasn't his sneeze.
Turning around, I saw Dachuan crawling up and blowing his nose.
Their eyes met and they couldn't help but look at the ground together. Sun Baocheng was still lying there.
"Wake up, Baocheng?"
. . . . . .
It took nearly half an hour for the three of them to sort out their thoughts.
"So, someone has stabbed us?"
"I don't know if it's too late to go now."
However, the rumbling sounds coming from their stomachs and the hunger pressing against their chests and backs made the three of them ignore all these things and quickly got up and went out.
Looking at the unfamiliar environment outside, the three of them wandered around for a while before realizing that this was a dilapidated warehouse in the school factory, more than 20 minutes' walk from their dormitory and cafeteria.
Regardless of anything else, filling your stomach is the real thing.
The three of them almost jogged all the way.
Soon, they discovered new circumstances.
"Huh? That's not right. Aren't we all going to visit the graves today? Why are there still so many people in school?"
Zhang Xinjun stopped two students and asked, "Excuse me, students, why didn't you go to visit the martyrs' tombs?"
The students who were stopped looked at the three curiously. Seeing that they were covered in dust and looked disheveled, they looked like they had just emerged from nowhere. They kindly explained, "We finished sweeping the martyrs' tomb yesterday. Where were you? Did you miss out?"
Haha, it seems that some classes can’t get even ten dollars.
The classmates left with a smile, leaving the three of them looking at each other in bewilderment: They actually missed such an important day!
***
The three of them came to the cafeteria in a trance, but it was not yet lunchtime, so they had to go to the small supply and marketing cooperative to buy some biscuits to fill their stomachs.
It was not until after lunch, when they contacted their familiar classmates, that the three of them realized that they had been "missing" for two days, not just one!
Their respective counselors also approached them and sternly questioned why they didn't participate in the Qingming Festival tomb-sweeping activities? Why didn't they ask for leave and miss classes?!
There is no way to avoid a self-examination.
Before they finished writing their apologies, they received another notice from the school regarding the results of the preliminary examination: given the huge difference between the preliminary examination scores of these twenty or thirty people and their entrance examination scores, their admission qualifications would be reviewed again.
During this period, they can report their situation, but are not allowed to leave school and wait for the final review results.
***
"What should we do, Brother Zhang?" Sun Baocheng was frightened when he heard this. He was so anxious that he had to come to Zhang Xinjun for advice.
Zhang Xinjun's face turned pale. What else could he do?
He used to be a Red Guard in the county, and he was good at causing trouble and picking quarrels, but that was because of his uncle who was the head of the Revolutionary Committee. Now he couldn't even leave the school gate. What else could he do?
"Have you tried everything?"
He asked Okawa with a glimmer of hope.
Shen Dachuan shook his head and said, "I've tried all four gates, but I can't get out."
"Looking for help? I'll give you five dollars, or ten if you can't get it done!"
Sun Baocheng said angrily: "It's useless."
The school has already warned that anyone who aids and abets the evil and helps to leak information will be deemed to have forged admission qualifications and will be expelled immediately upon discovery!
This is not the worst part. The worst part is that the school encourages reporting. Anyone who takes the money and then reports it can not only get the money for free, but also avoid taking any responsibility.
The road is completely blocked. I don’t know which idiot is doing this evil thing.
Zhang Xinjun gritted his teeth and said, "No, let's climb over the wall tonight!"
He had to find a way to tell his uncle, think of a way.
***
Zhang Xinjun is from a small town in a southwestern county. He also took the preliminary exam, but his score was not even enough to get into a technical secondary school.
Fortunately, his uncle had a solution.
A sent-down youth from a poor family had excellent academic performance, but his uncle withheld his documents and failed the political review. Then, through some manipulation and tactics, he had the other person take the exam for him, and sure enough, he was admitted to Yanjing University.
It's hard to say whether his cheating is better than those who impersonate others. In short, they are all fake.
But what is false can never be true. As long as you investigate carefully, no matter what means you use, the truth will always be revealed.
He knew this, and his uncle knew it too.
It can be said that every imposter knows it.
However, after spending too much time in luck, I gradually started to think of myself as the real thing.
Now, I handed in a blank paper for the final exam and had planned to take the opportunity to make a big fuss to cover up the result, but I ended up missing it.
The school is going to review the results now. Not to mention the basic test questions, even if he takes out the college entrance examination questions from that day and does them again, he will not reach the admission score line of Yanda University.
***
When climbing over the wall, Zhang Xinjun discovered that they were not the only ones who were anxious to break through the "siege" and leave the school.
But this wall that looks so unimportant at ordinary times can’t be climbed over?
After falling from the wall again, Zhang Lijun limped back and suddenly thought of a good idea!
"Baocheng, go report to the counselor and tell him I'm injured. The school clinic can't help, so I need to go to the hospital."
Baocheng suddenly realized and ran to find the counselor.
Shen Dachuan looked at him running away with some worry, and he was not optimistic about the situation.
Sure enough, not long after, Sun Baocheng came back dejectedly. "The counselor said that we need to see the school doctor first. If it's really serious enough to be sent to the hospital, someone from the Security Department will go with us."
He said, holding up four fingers, "Four people follow."
Damn, what a ruthless person! Isn't that like guarding a prisoner? How can he escape?
***
What they didn’t know was that Yanda had already reported the relevant situation as early as the day the preliminary results came out.
Yan University is a university directly under the central government. The party secretary and the president of the university are at the vice-ministerial level of national ministries. They do not need to report from the lower levels up, but can directly report to the leaders in charge.
The relevant leaders attach great importance to it.
Soon, a joint investigation team was formed by various universities, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Public Security. While supervising the universities that recruited students to conduct preliminary examinations, they also began relevant investigations.
All eighty to ninety colleges and universities across the country that have resumed enrollment are being surveyed!
The baseline test came suddenly and fiercely. In addition to Yanda University, other universities also found students with abnormal performance.
There were more than a dozen or as few as two or three, but almost all of them were infected.
When the investigation team arrived at the students' location, the first step was to retrieve the college entrance examination papers. They didn't need to look at anything else, just the handwriting on the original college entrance examination papers and the comprehensive test papers. It was easy to find out by comparing the two.
Whether it is taking the exam for someone else or impersonating someone else, it is difficult to make the handwriting of someone different from the original author consistent.
The investigation team arrived suddenly and did not receive any information beforehand. Some evidence did not have time to be concealed or destroyed, so they basically found the truth every time they investigated.
This incident was of a serious nature and was reported in central newspapers and on the radio. Later, reporters also followed up on the report. Once it was broadcast, it caused a huge sensation in the whole society.
The incident ended with the expulsion of twenty-one students from Yenching University, but the social response was still enthusiastic.
***
"What's going on? Are you two okay?" After hearing the news, Yan's father rushed to Shuangyu Hutong to inquire about the situation, fearing that his son and daughter-in-law would be implicated.
"Don't worry, we got in based on our own abilities. It has nothing to do with us."
"That's good, that's good. I heard your mother has to retake the exam. This guy can't sleep at night."
In fact, Yan's father himself was also very uneasy, otherwise he would not have made this trip.
Yan Jiuru smiled and said, "You don't have to retake the exam, but this time your son comes in first and your daughter-in-law comes in second."
Yan's father was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "Well, can't one of the couple be the first? You are just borrowing the light, your wife is pregnant and has no energy."
That’s quite right.
Father Yan left with satisfaction at the good news.
***
After this incident, the atmosphere on campus changed and became more pure. Students studying diligently could be seen everywhere, instead of wandering around idly waiting to get their diplomas.
Because the students realized that when Yanda said they would expel someone, they really would expel them, without any ambiguity, and that they would not be able to get away with cheating.
Yan Jiuru and others also joined in the busy study.
Taking into account the actual situation of this class of students, the school focuses on making up for the basic courses in the first semester.
Moreover, there is a serious shortage of teachers at present. For courses like linear algebra and calculus in advanced mathematics, as well as physics mechanics and Marxism-Leninism, both the School of Mathematics and the School of Engineering use the same set of textbooks.
There are only a few professors teaching the courses, and Yan Jiuru and Chen Yin can sometimes get together to attend a large class.
However, the school also attaches importance to students' hands-on ability and there are practical classes in the first semester.
Students at Yanda School of Engineering do not have to go to other factories for practice. They have their own various processing plants, which are equipped with various processing equipment such as grinding, planing, milling, boring, cutting, and chipping. Although the materials science course has not yet started, professors have already taken students to the processing plants to understand various materials and basic processes through practice.
In the professors' words, it is easier to feel and understand the ductility by hammering it yourself than to talk about it theoretically a hundred times.
That afternoon, Yan Jiuru finished his blacksmithing class. He walked hurriedly and did not stop even when Li Xiangdong called him.
"Why are you so anxious?" Li Xiangdong and Jin Jiayong caught up from behind and slapped Yan Jiuru on the shoulder.
Yan Jiuru dodged with his shoulder to relieve the force, and Li Xiangdong's slap missed again.
"Is there something wrong? If it's not urgent, why not talk about it tomorrow? I have something to do at work."
Yan Jiuru looked at his watch. It was already past four in the afternoon. "I'll give you ten minutes."
Li Xiangdong knew he was really busy when he heard that, so he could only say: "There's no rush for us, Brother Jiu, go do your thing first, and we'll talk about it in the dormitory later."
"Okay then, we're in a hurry so we'll have to go first!"
Yan Jiuru left in a hurry.
Li Xiangdong and Jin Jiayong looked at his back and sighed, "How can people be so different? Brother Jiu is top of the class and still manages work at work, while we can barely handle school matters."
Jin Jiayong: "Why don't you talk to my sister-in-law first? Isn't she the president of the student union?"
Li Xiangdong glared: "Sister-in-law is pregnant with twins, don't bother her with such trivial matters. Let's go and talk to Guo Zhen and the others first."
"I really don't care about this kind of shit."
"We're all in the same dorm, so no matter what..."
The two of them walked away muttering to themselves.
Yan Jiuru rushed to the south gate and found the jeep from Institute 107 already waiting there.
"What's going on?" Yan Jiuru sat in the passenger seat and looked at Xiao Zhang who was driving.
