Chapter 403 Regret, Ying Yuexuan Expelled from ISC [1 Update]
Even though half a year has passed, Pei Tianyi will never forget these three words.
His account level on the NOK forum is C, but he didn't level it up himself; he received it from his mentor.
In the past six months, he has also posted other bounties, but none of them have brought the owner of the "Guide" account to justice.
The person who could translate Old English and Middle English documents so quickly must be extraordinary.
Unfortunately, the NOK forum keeps the identities of all users confidential.
Pei Tianyi had also tried to trace the IP address of the "Guide" account using computer technology, but he couldn't even implant a program.
There is indeed no other forum in the world that can reach the level of the NOK Forum.
Furthermore, IDs cannot be duplicated within the NOK forum.
"Which one?" The manager looked over as he put the access card away, then suddenly realized, "Oh, this one."
“Yes, that’s it.” Pei Tianyi’s throat bobbed. “Do you remember?”
"Of course I remember." The manager didn't hide anything and went straight to the point, "She was a very beautiful Asian girl who came yesterday morning."
She paused, then couldn't help but add, "It's really beautiful."
In addition to being shocked by the A-level account, he forgot to ask for the name.
Upon hearing this, Pei Tianyi's fingers trembled.
He took out his phone, pulled up a photo, pointed to one of the people in it, and asked, "Is that her?"
This is a group photo of the contestants from various countries.
Even in a large crowd, you can spot the girl at a glance.
"This is the young lady." The manager nodded, somewhat surprised. "Mr. Pei, do you know her?"
Pei Tianyi took a deep breath, feeling dizzy and with a ringing in his ears.
He couldn't help but take a step back, his face paling slightly, muttering, "How could it be her..."
At that moment, the words he had spoken to Professor Deng when he went to Qingzhi with the scientific research team echoed in his ears with unparalleled clarity.
—Does the student you're looking for speak Middle English?
"Unfortunately, Yuexuan learned a little from us in O Continent. At least she knows something and can be of help. Please let her come. We don't need this student; she's useless."
Pei Tianyi took another step back and fell against the wall.
Only now does he finally understand what he has missed.
Pei Tianyi said those two sentences because he wanted to secure more resources for Ying Yuexuan.
But he was indeed arrogant and didn't think much of so-called geniuses.
Ying Zijin not only understood Middle English, but was also fluent in Old English.
More importantly, she also has an A-level account on the NOK forum!
If he had known from the beginning that Ying Yuexuan would turn out this way, he definitely wouldn't have refused Qingzhi's arrangement back then.
Now, not only has he missed the opportunity to befriend Ying Zijing, but he has also been stabbed in the back by Ying Yuexuan.
Seeing that Pei Tianyi looked extremely dazed and his face was pale, the manager asked in surprise, "Mr. Pei, what's wrong?"
"N-nothing." Pei Tianyi finally came to his senses. He pursed his lips, his smile becoming even more bitter. "Goodbye."
He didn't linger any longer and left with his belongings.
The administrators were still confused, so he put away the list and reported it to the research base headquarters.
**
noon.
Fu Yunshen took Ying Zijin to a mala tang restaurant run by Chinese people, accompanied by Qin Lingyan, Yu Xuesheng, and Qin Lingyu.
Qin Lingyu actually came with Chuguang Media and the main TV station this time, and she was assigned the job of a live broadcast host.
Her fans were ecstatic when they found out.
After all, Qin Lingyu has had very little time to work, and it's been two months since "Youth 202" ended. It's not easy to see her on the big screen again.
The five of them booked a private room, and Qin Lingyan deliberately sat far away from Qin Lingyu.
This was the first time the brother and sister had met in a year.
Qin Lingyu ignored Qin Lingyan and ordered a case of beer.
"Sis, I'm serious, you should drink less alcohol," Qin Lingyan earnestly advised. "If your fans see you drinking this much, you'll lose followers."
"I'm sorry." Qin Lingyu quickly opened a bottle of beer. "I made my fans drink five bottles of beer in one minute during my live stream, and told them that minors and girls should drink less alcohol unless necessary, or better yet, not at all, because it's bad for their health."
Qin Lingyan: "..."
If we're talking about who in the entertainment industry doesn't have a persona and whose persona is constantly crumbling, it's Qin Lingyu, and only she dares to do it.
She's rebellious, but the key thing is that her fans are very obedient.
When Qin Lingyu has free time, she will also randomly select a lucky fan on Weibo to check their homework.
“Drinking alcohol is indeed bad for your health,” Yu Xuesheng smiled faintly, “but it depends on your constitution.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Lingyu glanced at him but remained silent.
No wonder she sensed danger when she met this man on the show that day.
Only the hunters on the list truly understand the terror of those ranked higher.
Qin Lingyu had fought with hypnotists before, even though she was only ranked 30th, and they all managed to put her into a hypnotic state.
Although she quickly regained her senses, this proved that among all the hunters, only the hypnotist could rival the poison master.
Fu Yunshen did not join the conversation between the three. After helping Ying Zijin open a bottle of orange juice with pulp, he leaned back in his chair and remained silent.
"Have a candy." Ying Zijing noticed his emotional fluctuation, took a fruit candy from her pocket, and placed it in the man's palm. "Lychee flavor."
Fu Yunshen's thoughts returned. He looked at the hard candy in his hand, raised an eyebrow, and smiled: "Little kid, are you trying to coax me like a little brother?"
“No, that’s not it.” Ying Zijing yawned and put her arm on the table. “Xiao Lan only eats lollipops.”
Fu Yun raised his eyebrows even higher.
He looked languid, his long, slender fingers tearing open the candy wrapper. His voice was low, suppressing a laugh: "Trying to win over your future boyfriend?"
Ying Zijing paused for a moment: "I didn't say that."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"A gentleman wishes to see a Miss Ying." The waiter's polite voice came from outside the door. "Is Miss Ying here?"
Ying Zijing looked up, thought for a moment, and then stood up: "I'll go out and take a look."
Fu Yunshen also stood up: "I'll go with you."
The two went out one after the other.
Pei Tianyi waited nervously at the bottom of the steps outside the shop.
He deliberately didn't let the waiter announce his name because he was afraid that Ying Zijing wouldn't come out to see him if she heard it.
But the situation didn't get any better. The moment the girl saw him, she turned around and walked back into the store.
"Wait!" Pei Tianyi blurted out in his anxiety, "I want to ask you about the NOK forum. Why did you accept my bounty in the first place?"
Fu Yunshen stopped and glanced thoughtfully at Pei Tianyi, raising his voice: "Yaoyao?"
Ying Zijing finally turned around, her eyes expressionless: "Your bounty?"
“Those Middle English documents.” Pei Tianyi tensed up. “When I left the research base, I asked about your ID account, which is ‘Guide’.”
Ying Zijing pondered for a few seconds, then looked up and said, "I remember now."
Pei Tianyi became even more nervous: "I..."
"So you're the one who's foolish and rich." Ying Zijin nodded slightly. "I didn't know it was your bounty."
She didn't linger and turned to leave.
This answer was completely unexpected by Pei Tianyi.
His expression showed a slight surprise, followed by a moment of paleness and dishevelment.
"Don't overthink it." Fu Yunshen said calmly, one hand in his pocket. "You're not that important."
This sentence dealt Pei Tianyi a severe blow.
He clenched his fists, too weak to even utter a word of rebuttal, and left.
Fu Yunshen pressed his hand to his forehead, feeling helpless.
It turns out that many people are prone to misinterpreting the feelings of his children.
You'd better keep a close eye on it.
**
Ying Yuexuan stayed in the interrogation room for a full day and night.
During this period, she was given meals by designated personnel, but was not allowed to go out.
There wasn't even a window in this interrogation room.
The power will automatically turn off at 10 p.m.
Her phone was also confiscated, so she couldn't contact anyone.
Ying Yuexuan was interrogated a total of eight times, each time by a different person.
Among these people were professors, associate professors, and even the director of the research base.
This is someone Ying Yuexuan has absolutely no contact with right now.
Now, she is being interrogated as a criminal.
As time went by, Ying Yuexuan's mental state finally collapsed.
When the ninth batch of interrogators arrived at the interrogation room, she struggled violently.
Immediately, uniformed officers raised their guns: "Don't move!"
"The ISC finals are about to begin." Ying Yuexuan dared not move, she bit her lip tightly, "You can't keep me locked up anymore, I want to participate in the competition."
"I've already said that the experimental data has not been leaked to anyone, and you have no right to stop me from participating in the competition."
"Participate?" Upon hearing this, the vice dean smiled, a cold and sarcastic laugh. "You don't really think that after doing something like this, you're qualified to participate in the ISC International Finals, do you?"
Ying Yuexuan's body trembled, and her lips quivered: "W-what do you mean?"
"You stole experimental data, your character is despicable. You are not qualified to participate in any scientific research-related activities in O Continent." The vice principal said calmly, with his hands behind his back. "I'm here today to tell you that the organizing committee has issued a notice that you have been expelled from the ISC International Finals."
Data leaks are actually quite common.
However, most of these are hackers from hostile forces who infiltrate computers.
The vice dean has never seen anyone like Ying Yuexuan who uses her senior brother to frame others.
He had absolutely no good feelings towards Ying Yuexuan, and even loathed her.
"No...no way!" Ying Yuexuan gritted her teeth. "There's no such rule in ISC's regulations!"
She was still hoping to turn her life around with the help of ISC.
As long as she demonstrates a certain level of scientific research talent, even if the scientific community doesn't want her, some families in O Continent will hire her.
These families don't care about right or wrong.
"There isn't such a clause, but the organizing committee has already stated that they will protect the highest rights of every contestant who qualifies directly for the international competition." The vice dean said coldly, "You're slandering a contestant who qualified directly for the international competition, and you still want to continue participating?"
Ying Yuexuan's face turned deathly pale, and she slumped into the chair.
The vice dean, too lazy to waste any more words with her, simply waved his hand and said, "Deportation. You will never be allowed to set foot in the university town again. Your facial and fingerprint information will also be entered into the system. You will be treated the same as a level three criminal."
Two armed men stepped forward and, without saying a word, dragged Ying Yuexuan away.
Ying Yuexuan gave up struggling, her eyes glazed over.
Her return to the Ying family meant that she was destined to be abandoned by Ying Zhenting and Zhong Manhua.
How did things turn out like this?
Ying Yuexuan couldn't understand it at all, but she really regretted it.
**
The capital city.
Yuan family.
Yuan Jiacheng went out for a social engagement, while Meng Ru was chatting with Yuan's father about Ying Yuexuan.
“Xiaoxuan went to the ISC International Finals. Even if she doesn’t win an award, she’ll still get noticed by a lot of professors.” Meng Ru smiled. “Just wait and see, she’ll bring us a lot of connections.”
Mr. Yuan nodded: "Has Professor Li called you again?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Meng Ru's phone rang.
"Look, speak of the devil and he appears." Meng Ru waved her phone, delighted. "Professor Li called again, probably about Xiao Xuan."
In the past, it would have been difficult for them to even get a meeting with Professor Li.
But things were different with Ying Yuexuan. Every now and then, Professor Li would contact them.
Meng Ru had this plan: after Ying Yuexuan finished her college entrance exam and officially entered Imperial University, she would then use Ying Yuexuan to contact the honorary professor in the Computer Science Department.
By then, the Yuan family will have established connections in the scientific research community.
Even Yuan's usually stern face showed a rare hint of a smile: "You do have good taste."
"Of course." Meng Ru said calmly, "Anyway, from the very beginning, I felt that the Ying family's adopted daughter was no good. We can see how things go in the future. It doesn't mean anything now."
As she spoke, she answered the phone.
