Chapter 116: So It’s Class Eight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Under the expectant gazes of all the students in Class Eight, the bell for the papers to be collected finally rang. The invigilator was a professional, and she collected the papers quickly. In no time, she had collected all the papers and turned to leave.
The moment the invigilator walked out of Class Eight, loud cheers immediately erupted from Class Eight.
“Impressive, Sister Mo! You’ve explained almost all the physics questions this time! I only took an hour to finish them all. I don’t find it difficult at all!”
“Me too, me too! Last time, I only did half of the questions in the physics examination. This time, I actually have the time to check twice! It’s all thanks to Sister Mo!”!!
“Long live Sister Mo!”
After the physics examination ended, the teachers of the entire physics department started to review the exam papers without stopping.
They were visiting the Technology Museum next week, but the matter of which classes had a slot had yet to be decided. The physics teachers all knew that Mr. Qi had made a bet with the students of Class Eight, and they were also looking forward to the results!
Every teacher received two tightly sealed sets of examination questions and started to mark them.
Not long after, a female teacher’s surprised cry came from the physics office. “Which class are these exam papers from? Their answers are too good. Not only did a few of them get perfect scores, I’m only halfway through my review and there’s not a single one below 90 points!”
Upon hearing this, the physics teacher, Yang Qian, raised her chin proudly. She was the temporary substitute teacher for Class One as Mr. Qi had gone on a business trip. “Maybe it’s Class One. In the past two days, I saw that the students have been studying very enthusiastically. Maybe everyone is motivated to study because they can visit the Technology Museum next week.”
Nodding in agreement, the female teacher continued to mark the few remaining exam papers in her hand seriously.
She had finished marking this stack of exam papers very quickly. As there were too many correct answers, there was almost no need to calculate the marks. One just had to see which question was wrong and subtract its marks from the total score.
The test papers required two teachers to verify and sign them. Duan Xu was the second to get hold of the high-quality test papers. After carefully checking the scores, he felt a bitterness in his heart, he was unable to describe how it felt.
He did not expect Class One to have done so well. It seemed like Class Eight had no hope of getting first place this time. They still had to work harder in the future!
In just one morning, the physics department had finished marking all the exam papers. Next was the step where they recorded the scores on the computer.
In consideration that the stack of exam papers with excellent answers belonged to Class One, other than the two teachers who marked the papers and Yang Qian, another teacher from the physics department had also joined in the entering of the results.
After the female teacher opened the second page of the sealed test papers. The first paper belonged to a student named Meng Ran. However, no matter how hard she looked, she could not find the student named Meng Ran on the list of students in Class One. She looked up at Yang Qian in confusion and asked, “Ms. Yang, did you give me the wrong name list for Class One?”
Yang Qian was also stunned. “It should be right. This was personally saved by Mr. Qi on the computer. Didn’t we use the name list for the tabulation of scores a few times already?”
Nodding, the female teacher asked curiously, “Which class is this student named Meng Ran from?”
When he heard the female teacher’s question, something seemed to flash past Duan Xu’s mind. He opened the name list of Class Eight that Li Xiao had given him previously. The first name on the first page was indeed ‘Meng Ran’.
Duan Xu froze in his seat for a few seconds before replying in disbelief, “She’s from Class Eight. Don’t tell me…”
Seeing Duan Xu’s disbelief, the female teacher was also shocked. “Then these papers… were done by Class Eight?”
Just as she finished speaking, all the teachers in the physics group stood up and went to the female teacher to look at Class Eight’s test papers.
The teachers picked up and placed the exam papers down one by one. What they saw was incredible, and Duan Xu’s tears welled up. He did not expect so many students in Class Eight to achieve good results. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation after teaching for so many years.
After reading the test papers of Class Eight, Yang Qian’s face instantly turned ugly. She didn’t believe that in just four days, the students of Class Eight could improve their physics results so much.
With a flash of inspiration, Yang Qian said mockingly, “Teacher Duan, Class Eight suddenly did so well this time. Is there something fishy about it? The questions for this week’s test are not simple. Even if they improve, a class might not be able to have so many students achieving full marks…”
The entire physics department understood the meaning behind Yang Qian’s words. She was mocking Class Eight for their large-scale plagiarism!
Although Duan Xu usually had a good temper, he was angry that someone had said this. “Ms. Yang, you can’t just say that without any evidence. The students of Class Eight have been especially passionate about physics these two days. I believe this is definitely the result they had truly gotten!”
Yang Qian sneered but she still refused to give up. “I don’t believe it! I believe that the other teachers must have their doubts too. I’ll call Mr. Qi and report this matter truthfully!”
At this moment, the students of Class Eight were all diligently completing exercises that they did not know where Mo Zhu had attained from.
Duan Xu stood at the door and knocked before heading straight for Mo Zhu’s seat.
“Mo Zhu, come out with me..”
