Chapter 15 The Mastermind As soon as
the question was asked, Yu Shujun immediately tucked her legs under the desk.
...Feeling guilty? Wen Nan looked at his school uniform pants which were blocked by the corner of the table.
Yu Shujun took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. It was a summer night, but it gave people the illusion that the water vapor she exhaled was about to condense into ice.
She still did not answer Wen Nan's question, but just raised her hand to look at the dial again, and then said: "There are still seventeen minutes and twenty-three seconds. In the remaining time, except for questions related to the test paper, I don't want to hear you say a word, otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
Wen Nan raised his hand, pinched two fingers together, and placed them across his mouth, making a zipper-like motion.
Yu Shujun lowered his head and focused on his Olympiad mock test paper again.
Wen Nan stopped talking, but he didn't really plan to look at the test paper.
It is impossible to solve the problem. It is impossible to solve the problem in this lifetime.
He leaned over the table, turned his head, and stared at the profile of the girl next to him from bottom to top.
Probably feeling Wen Nan's gaze, Yu Shujun's eyelashes hidden under the glasses trembled, but she stubbornly did not even glance at Wen Nan.
The two of them remained silent for a while.
Finally, Wen Nan broke the deadlock again, "I have a question."
Yu Shujun turned to look at him, his eyes reading: There'd better be something wrong with you.
This time, Wen Nan pushed the test paper in front of him away and pointed at the first question on it, "I have a problem with this multiple-choice question."
Yu Shujun looked at the question -
Xiaowei and Xiaojun are designing an irrigation system for a hospital garden. They plan to install a central fountain in an oval garden that can evenly irrigate the entire garden. The long axis of the garden is 40 meters and the short axis is 30 meters. The central fountain should be placed at the focal point to ensure maximum coverage. The center coordinates of the garden are the origin (0, 0).
Q: Where should the fountain be located to ensure optimal coverage of the entire garden area?
A)(±5, 0) B)(±10, 0) C)(±15, 0) D)(±20, 0)]
This was the first question on the entire test paper, a free-point question that didn't even require any high school math knowledge! Yu Shujun took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then said, "What's the question? Tell me."
Wen Nan pointed at the question and said, "I want to ask, Xiaowei and Xiaojun, are they good friends?"
Upon hearing this question, Yu Shujun's pupils shrank, and even though he tried hard to hide it, a flash of surprise still crossed his face.
But she quickly returned to a cold face and asked back: "Do you think your question is related to the test paper?"
"It's related." Wen Nan nodded seriously. "This is the background of the question. If I don't understand it clearly, I will be troubled when solving the problem."
As he spoke, Wen Nan's gaze fell back to the direction of the iodine stain on Yu Shujun's pants under the table.
"Xiao Wei's knee was broken and she was sent to the school hospital. It was already quite late and there was no one in the school hospital except the doctor on duty. Xiao Jun, who was supposed to be waiting in the classroom to tutor Xiao Jiu, left in the middle of the class and ran to the school hospital to see her. Why?
"Because Xiao Jun and Xiao Wei are best friends, and he was worried about the other being alone in the hospital? Or... is there another hidden story?"
Yu Shujun looked at Wen Nan silently, with a look of strong scrutiny in her eyes. She seemed to have seriously underestimated the IQ and insight of the boy in front of her.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Wen Nan continued to ask the question: "If we assume that Xiaojun and Xiaowei are best friends, then we know that Xiaowei sent a letter to Xiaojiu and stuffed it in Xiaojiu's desk, asking Xiaojiu to go to the playground, but Xiaojiu didn't see the letter and missed Xiaowei's invitation.
"Then, theoretically speaking, Xiaowei and Xiaojiu should not be able to meet at night. However, Xiaowei's best friend found the letter in the classroom in time and told Xiaowei, which caused Xiaowei to rush to the playground with the letter. The scene became very chaotic for a while.
"That is to say, the accident on the playground at night was not a real accident, but was caused intentionally, right?"
After Wen Nan finished speaking, he looked into Yu Shujun's eyes and said word by word: "Xiao Wei's best friend?"
At this point, Yu Shujun finally put down the pen in his hand, turned his head, looked back into Wen Nan's eyes, and asked, "What do you want to say? Xiaowei has a best friend, is this strange? Her best friend was worried about her and was afraid that she would miss it, so she sent her an envelope. Later, when she learned that she had broken her knee, she rushed to the hospital to visit her. Is there anything wrong with these actions?"
In theory, there is no problem.
It is normal for the characters in this novice trial area to interact with each other. For example, Qiqi and her aunt Lin Xuemei are closely connected and even have a blood relationship.
If school beauty Wu Yuwei and academic master Yu Shujun are good friends, it is not strange for them to stand up for each other when they are in trouble.

But……
Wen Nan felt that Yu Shujun's current behavior had exceeded the scope of a character in a copy.
It's not surprising that these characters have their own behavioral logic, but Wen Nan feels that, at least, the underlying logic of the targets he chooses to attack should revolve around him.
For example, before Wen Nan showed up for the appointment, Qi Qi would sit in the small flower bed outside the playground waiting for him. When Xiao Lajiao and Aunt Mei couldn't wait for Wen Nan, they would try to find Wen Nan and complete the appointment with him. Wu Yuwei's behavior showed some deviations, but it always revolved around the theme of "confessing to Ye Jiu".
If we follow this logic, when Yu Shujun could not wait for "her support target Ye Jiu" at the back door of the classroom, shouldn't she choose to continue waiting, send a message to urge Ye Jiu, or just leave in anger? She ran to the school hospital to visit Wu Yuwei, and then pretended that nothing had happened, ran back to the classroom of Senior 3 (2), and continued to wait for Ye Jiu. What was the purpose behind this behavior? In fact, it was not just going to the school hospital to visit Wu Yuwei.
Wen Nan was stunned when he saw Yu Shujun for the first time when he came to the classroom just now, because Yu Shujun's dress was exactly the same as someone mentioned by the other two characters -
The background introduction of Xiao La Jiao shows that since she was not a student of No. 7 Middle School, she had no way of entering the campus. The reason she was able to come in was because a female student wearing the No. 7 Middle School uniform, thick glasses and a high ponytail helped her greet the security guard.
Aunt Mei also mentioned the same thing. She said that she was also led in by a girl wearing glasses.
All these things add up to one fact:
Whether it was the small Shura field where Liu Qi and Wu Yuwei appeared at the same time before, or the medium-sized Shura field where Xiao Lajiao and Aunt Mei also joined in later, the mastermind behind the scenes was Yu Shujun.
