"What's the matter? Why are you so confused?" Xiao Chen asked, but seeing that Zhou Yu looked like he had something to hide, he comforted him, "If you don't feel comfortable talking about it, then don't say it!"

Zhou Yu thought about it and felt that there was nothing he couldn't say, so he said, "Actually, there's nothing he can't say. This is what happened. I was invigilating in the ninth examination room today, and the result was..."

Then, Zhou Yu told Xiao Chen and Lin Ya in detail what he had seen.

After listening to Zhou Yu's story, Xiao Chen had almost finished the food in his lunch box.

Xiao Chen took out a pack of tissues from his pocket, wiped his mouth with one, and said to Zhou Yu who was trying to eat, "That is to say, after you looked at the papers of those two students, from your professional perspective as a Chinese teacher, you think there are big problems!"

"You think that based on the past performance of those two students, it is impossible for them to pass the more difficult 'Southern Anhui Eight Schools Joint Examination' to such a perfect level, and you think that they are suspected of cheating."

Zhou Yu raised his head from the lunch box and nodded to Xiao Chen who was looking at him. "Yes, that's what you said. But then I thought about it and I wasn't sure, because the answers are still locked in the office. How did they get the test paper or the answers?"

"Besides, it can't be said to be perfect. I also took a rough look at the essays of those two students. They are terrible. They are completely off topic and incomprehensible. This also makes me uncertain again. If they really got the test paper, how come their essays are so bad?"

"So," Xiao Chen turned around and looked at Zhou Yu, "what are you struggling with?"

"What does the other person's cheating have to do with you?"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he replied, "If the other party really cheated, then wouldn't the test results be unfair to those students who did not cheat and took the test based on their own abilities?"

Frankly speaking, Zhou Yu's current fate of "stuck in this inferior high school" can be considered a victim of "cheating" in a sense. So he now dislikes cheating very much.

Xiao Chen couldn't help but laugh, "Unfair? What's the unfair point? This mock exam has no practical significance other than ranking. So, what's the unfair point you're worried about?"

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and did not speak for a long time, because he found that what Xiao Chen said seemed to make some sense.

Seeing Zhou Yu stopped talking, Xiao Chen continued, "Not to mention that it has no practical significance, just look at this rotten school and rotten principal. Why do you care so much about it?"

"Why don't we just take care of our own little piece of land? After teaching this group of senior high school students, will the three of us really continue to stay in this crappy school next semester? Aren't we just going to pat our butts and leave in June next year?"

Finally Zhou Yu was convinced, "What you said seems to make sense!"

"Is that right?" Seeing that Zhou Yu finally figured it out, Xiao Chen was visibly happy, "Just listen to me, you won't go wrong!"

Zhou Yu, who had figured it out, buried his head and continued to eat. While eating, he said, "Yeah, but I still can't figure out how those two people named Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian cheated!"

Xiao Chen raised his arms, supported his elbows on the table, pinched his chin with his hands, and began to think.

Xiao Chen was thinking, Zhou Yu and Lin Ya were busy eating, and the scene suddenly fell into silence.

"Hey, do you think there is such a possibility?" Xiao Chen suddenly had an idea, and he clenched his left fist and slammed it against his right palm, and said excitedly to Zhou Yu, "These two students did plagiarize, but what they got were not the test papers and answers locked in our office?"

Zhou Yu just stared at the excited Xiao Chen beside him and blinked, "You mean..."

Xiao Chen nodded vigorously at Zhou Yu, "Yes!"

"These two students went to buy the test papers and answers!"

"They're looking for a shooter!"

"......"

"......"

The two of them looked at each other, and no one said anything.

After a long while, Xiao Chen couldn't help but speak first, "No, big brother, this is too outrageous. You're hiring a ghostwriter? It's just a mock copy. Why hire a ghostwriter?!"

Zhou Yu didn't say anything, but raised his right hand and scratched the back of his head. After he said it, he thought about it carefully and felt that his idea was indeed a bit outrageous. "But, buying test papers and answers is also outrageous, right? Where can they buy them?"

Xiao Chen sneered, "If they really want to do these crooked things, are you afraid that they won't be able to find a way? Let me tell you, students nowadays are much bolder than we were back then!"

"Besides, why do you care where they bought it? Even if they bought the answers to the test and cheated, and got a high score, what does it have to do with us?"

"This is just a mock test, not the college entrance examination. For a mock test like this, what use is it to cheat to get a good score other than satisfying their momentary vanity? If they can still cheat in the college entrance examination, I will respect them as real men!"

"But there are no ifs," Xiao Chen unscrewed the glass beside him, took a sip of the cold green tea inside, and then said again, "So, this will only hurt themselves."

"Besides, Lao Zhou, you also said that these students are all in the ninth examination room. What does the ninth examination room mean? I can tie a dog up there and still get a higher score than them. Why do you care about these idiots who are just messing around in school?"

"Isn't that too harsh?" Zhou Yu frowned. "What do you mean by tying up a dog? This is all nonsense!"

Xiao Chen raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, okay, let me put it another way. You can tie up a freshman in high school and his score will be higher than theirs. Is that okay?"

Even Lin Ya on the other side couldn't stand it anymore and glared at Xiao Chen, "Just talk properly, why are you talking nonsense!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm just kidding!" When Xiao Chen saw Lin Ya also started to blame him, he immediately realized that he had gone too far. "But seriously, it's easy to confirm whether they bought the test papers and answers like I said."

"Old Zhou, you guys will be invigilating the ninth exam room this afternoon anyway. When you collect the papers, don't leave in a hurry. After I finish my work, I will study with you about the two Pan...Pan..."

"Pan Minqiang, Lu Qian." Zhou Yu reminded in a low voice.

"Oh, yes, yes, Pan Minqian, Lu Qiang!"

"No, it's Pan Minqiang, Lu Qian!"

"Who cares what they're called?" Xiao Chen didn't care what the two students' names were. "Don't leave when the time comes. I'll come to your place after I'm done with my work. We'll study it together. If it's too outrageous, I believe we can both see it."
