Chapter 16: When You Drop the Chain at a Critical Moment

  As Lan Xiang's figure disappeared at the door, Fatso Yuan Hao suddenly snatched the "Jin Ping Mei" from Xie Fei Yu's hand, opened the cover page, stood up and shouted loudly: "Everyone listen, there is still a dedication here."

  "Read it quickly, read it quickly, what's written?" The attention of the whole class immediately focused on this place.

  "Dead fatty, you're looking for trouble, bring it over quickly." Xie Feiyu was shocked and got up to grab it.

  Chubby had long been guarding Xie Feiyu, his hands raised high, and he jumped onto the stool, then from the stool to the table. In his uniquely ambiguous tone, he enunciated each word: "Give it to... my dearest..."

  Everyone in the class stared, what's going on?

  "Cough... cough!" Suddenly, two dry coughs came from the classroom door, and Lan Xing was standing at the door for some reason.

  Everyone immediately withdrew their gaze and buried their heads in the table, pretending to be serious. Yuan Hao stood on the table, frightened and motionless for half a day.

  "Yuan Hao, you're learning from Dong Cun Duan's example of throwing explosives!" Lan Xing shouted coldly. The fatty hastily jumped down, his face pale with fear, and quickly returned the book to Xie Fei Yu's hands.

  "Give this to my dearest daughter. This was written by my father. I just remembered something, today's exam, everyone's mobile phone must be handed over to the podium, if anyone is found hiding a mobile phone, they will be dealt with as cheating!" Lan Xiang seemed to have regained her cold and elegant demeanor, dropped a few words, turned around and left.

  "Cough, it was actually written by someone's father." Those wolves had a disappointed look on their faces.

  "Everyone hand over your mobile phones to me." Ouyang Yan took out a shopping bag and had them hand over their phones one by one.

  "Class Monitor, can I not hand it in? My girlfriend will call me."

  "Yes, yes, my dad is still in the hospital."

  "No way, hand everything over. Otherwise, go tell Teacher Lan." Ouyang Yan's face turned stern, and she really did have a bit of Lan Xing's aura.

  "Xiao Yan, this is for you." Li Jiang hurriedly got up from his seat and handed over a mobile phone.

  "Li Jiang, did the sun rise from the west today? You're so honest!" The crowd burst into laughter.

  "What's the fuss about? I'm just cooperating with Xiao Yan's work. You guys hand it over too, if I find out who's hiding it, don't blame me for turning against you." Li Jiang smiled awkwardly, then fiercely clenched his fist again.

  Although everyone knew that Li Jiang was trying to curry favor with Ouyang Yan, when they heard those threatening words, everyone obediently took out their own mobile phones.

  "Ding ding ding..." The class bell rang, and the language teacher walked in with a stack of test papers, glanced at the pile of phones on the podium, nodded, and began to distribute the test papers.

  Looking at the test questions on the desk, holding that copy of "Jin Ping Mei" in his hand, Xie Feiyu couldn't bring himself to start writing for a long time. His grades had always been terrible before, and he didn't care about it either, usually just scribbling something random would do. But now, thinking back to the promise he made to Lan Hua yesterday, Xie Feiyu was torn. No way, I have to do better this time.

  I glanced around quietly, and everyone looked like they were struggling to solve the problems. It seems that no one else knows how to do it either. Well, I heard that many of these simulated questions are actually from previous college entrance exams, so if someone who has taken the exam before could help, that would be great.

  Right, don't I have a super system? A flash of inspiration streaked across Xie Feiyu's mind.

  "Copy last year's top scorer in the college entrance examination." Xie Feiyu made a request in his mind.

  "Ding, 50 ability points are required, you currently do not have enough ability points and cannot activate the ability." The metallic sound did respond, but it gave an answer that drove Xie Fei Yu crazy.

  Not enough anomaly points again! Is there no cheaper ability in this ghost system? The national champion of the college entrance examination is not good, can I have a provincial one?

  "Ding, the minimum consumption of the intermediate system is 50 EP. This time it's an intelligent conversation, consuming 1 EP."

  Xie Feiyu reluctantly resigned himself to his fate. If he continued to ask questions, he was afraid that even the little bit of remaining energy he had would be completely exhausted.

  "Electronic control application." Xie Feiyu remembered that he could still go online to check, although it was a bit of trouble, but this was already the last resort.

  "Search system started, nearby search found 1 TV and 50 mobile phones, please select control type."

  "Huh? There are only 48 people in the whole class, and even if you add the teacher, there's still only a total of 49 phones. Where did this extra one come from?" Xie Feiyu thought for a moment, it seemed that someone must have secretly kept a phone.

  "Choose control over the phone." Xie Feiyu made his choice.

  "Mobile phone group control, consumes 10 anomalous energy points."

  "Master." "Master"…

  Xie Feiyu's mind presented a classroom space map, and one by one "small tube households" jumped out, the most densely packed at the podium, but there was indeed another one that came out behind the classroom.

  Xie Feiyu took a look at the position, Li Jiang. No wonder you were so enthusiastic about handing over your phone? It turns out that you had a spare one hidden away? Xie Feiyu smiled slightly. Thinking of Li Jiang's gloating expression when he saw his own bad luck yesterday, Xie Feiyu gave an evil smile and directly stripped him of all control over his phone.

  "First question, best answer match, choose c." "Second question, best answer match, choose a." One by one, silent scenes appeared in Xie Feiyu's mind. Xie Feiyu picked up his pen and quickly filled in the answers with swift brushstrokes.

  On the other hand, Li Jiang was secretly using his mobile phone to search for answers on Baidu, but just as he finished the first question, his phone suddenly went black and then lit up again. However, the original Baidu webpage had disappeared, and all that could be seen on the screen were two letters "sb" popping out repeatedly, quickly occupying the entire screen.

  Damn, it's dead. Li Jiang decisively shut down the computer, and the screen indeed went completely black, as if everything was back to normal. Only then did Li Jiang reinstall the board, boot up, and everything seemed fine. He flipped to a webpage, but when he tried to input information into the search bar, no matter what key he pressed or which input method he used, only two letters came out: "sb". Not even the order changed.

  Oh no, I've been infected with a virus. Li Jiang found an anti-virus software from Microsoft, ran it, scanned the computer, and the result showed everything was normal, without any viruses detected.

  Grass, the current antivirus software is useless! I wasted my money buying it. Li Jiang stopped typing, but the words on the screen still jumped out one by one. Looking at those two big words "SB" that pierced his eyes, Li Jiang finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart.

  "What a crappy phone! You always malfunction at critical moments!" Li Jiang suddenly cursed, and smashed his phone to pieces on the ground.

  Everyone was startled by Li Jiang's sudden movement, and Ou Yang Yan's gaze became even more piercing, as if she wanted to kill him.

  The language teacher looked at the phone on the ground, her face turned green. Although this phone is yours, it's broken now, but this is an exam room! How could you smash it in front of me?

  "Li Jiang, stand up, bring your test paper over here and do it!" the language teacher called out.

  The language teacher habitually took out his mobile phone, looked at the time, but it was a blank screen. Hmm, why did my phone also go dead? He removed the battery and put it back on, and the phone returned to normal. However, he didn't notice that in the shopping bag, all the phones that were supposed to be turned off had normal exteriors, but were actually overheating, displaying that they were running at full capacity...
