Chapter 123 - Plagiarize
Reluctantly, he found himself fielding questions from the swarm of reporters.
“It's a breeze, incredibly easy!”
“I was done in 25 minutes!”
“Smooth sailing, aced it!”
Jiang Hao's responses left the reporters momentarily dumbfounded.
Seizing the moment, Jiang Hao quickly slipped through the encircling crowd and made his escape!
……
The following morning, the general science exam commenced!
Without any surprises, Jiang Hao breezed through the entire test in under 30 minutes, then calmly waited for the bell.
This time, to avoid being cornered by the ravenous reporters, Jiang Hao didn't make a beeline for the exit.
Unbeknownst to him, outside, reporters from various agencies had already placed bets on whether he would be the first to burst through the school gates!
“I bet it's that ‘Forcing King' who comes out first again!”
“I agree!”
“No, he's been trapped by us twice. I bet this time he'll blend in with the rest of the students!”
……
Soon after, the bell signaled the end of the exam, and students began to stream out of the venue.
Outside, reporters eagerly anticipated, scanning the crowd for their target.
Jiang Hao, blending in with his peers, stepped out to find the frenzied reporters seemingly on the hunt for something—or someone.
Suddenly, a realization dawned on him, and his face took on a look of sheer disbelief.
“Holy… are they searching for me?”
The thought struck him as highly probable.
Better safe than sorry!
With that, Jiang Hao quickly pulled up his hood and prepared to slip away unnoticed.
But as he exited the school gates, a young female reporter, who had been scouring the crowd for Jiang Hao, spotted him.
“Quick, over here, he's here!”
Her shout drew the immediate attention of her colleagues, who converged on him like sharks to chum.
Jiang Hao's figure froze as the realization hit him.
“This is bad!”
As expected, he found himself completely encircled in no time.
“Jiang, how tough was the general science exam?”
“Jiang, how many points do you think you scored on the test?”
“Easy peasy!”
“Just about 20 to 30 minutes!”
“As long as nothing goes wrong, it's a perfect score!”
……
In no time at all, Jiang Hao was quickly overwhelmed by a horde of ravenous reporters and beat a hasty retreat!
Before you knew it, afternoon had arrived!
The final session of the day: English!
Jiang Hao breezed through it in under thirty minutes!
At that point, the other students in the exam room, seeing Jiang Hao idly sitting yet again, cast a variety of looks his way.
“Jeez, has this guy totally given up?”
“Whoa, did he seriously finish early again?”
“Pfft, he's just showing off!”
……
Most onlookers viewed Jiang Hao with a mix of sympathy, skepticism, and scorn.
The invigilators in the room had become quite familiar with Jiang Hao's antics.
After confirming there were no violations, they decided to pay him no further attention.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to take a nap on his desk, his stool started to wobble.
Surprised, Jiang Hao looked down and saw that a student behind him was kicking his stool!
Glancing back discreetly, Jiang Hao noticed that this person was signaling him.
From their gestures, it was clear they were trying to cheat off his answer sheet.
