Ding dong——

Ding dong——

Not long after the doorbell was pressed, a man's reply came from inside.

"Which one?"

"Li Zheng."

"Lin Yujing."

"..."

After a moment of silence, the man opened the door without asking why.

Li Zheng and Lin Yujing also subconsciously let go of their hands.

After all...it's still quite inappropriate.

When they met the man in the room, they all stared at each other.

Although they have heard each other's names before, and may have seen each other on large occasions, this is the first time for them to look directly at each other at such a close distance.

The man's name is He Antang. He has a pair of confused eyes and a dark, under-trimmed parted hair. He doesn't actually look like an academic.

But he is indeed a genuine professor at the School of Physics of Jida University and concurrently serves as the director of this competition committee.

The director of the Physical Competition Committee is appointed under an appointment system and is elected every four years. This year is also his last term.

As for He Antang, he had naturally been mentioned by their names countless times. The most recent one was the theoretical marking. He personally reviewed the two papers twice and signed the marking confirmation.

At this time, He Antang saw a real person up close and felt a little unreal——

This is too beautiful...

But in the end he was too embarrassed to say it, so he just avoided the other party's eyes and opened the door sideways.

"come in."

"It's so late, I'm sorry to disturb you, Teacher He."

After Li Zheng and Lin Yujing nodded and said hello, they entered the room one after another and followed He Antang's direction and sat on the sofa.

He Antang was not in a hurry. He took two bottles of mineral water and handed them to the two of them. Then he sat across from them, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Is it about Huihu?"

The two put down the mineral water and nodded to confirm. Li Zheng said, "I see you are still wearing formal clothes. You must have just finished the discussion?"

"It's not just discussions, there are also points earned." He Antang rubbed his forehead and waved his hand, "I want to gain points for everything. Even if the question is clearly wrong, even if one unit gets it right, everyone is trying to get a point."

"I understand, you have worked really hard, so we will try to waste as little of your time as possible." Li Zheng took a deep breath, took out his mobile phone, unlocked Yang Shaokui's QQ space, and raised his hands in front of He Antang, "

Just look at it."

He Antang took the phone without any ambiguity, then pulled it and started reading.

The more he looked, the smaller his eyes narrowed and the deeper the wrinkles on his brows became.

After two or three minutes, He Antang asked with some trembling: "This... this Yang Shaokui, is he a student from Huihu?"

"It has been confirmed." Li Zheng nodded, "There are several photos of other candidates from their school who have also been confirmed. You can confirm with other teachers from the competition committee."

"No need." He Antang raised his head in confusion and stared at the ceiling. Unconsciously, he slumped and let out a long sigh, "Hey..."

Even Professor Ji Da, who had gone through many hardships, showed a deep sense of powerlessness at this time.

Li Zheng and Lin Yujing also exchanged glances.

Now it seems that Dr. Qi Lin's judgment is still correct.

The director of the competition committee did not know about it.

This kind of thing must be just a behavior between a very few individuals, and there is even a high probability that it is just a behavior between a member of the question group and the Huihu school management.

After being silent for a full two minutes, Li Zheng couldn't help but stand up and returned the mineral water he had just received to He Antang.

"Thank you..." He Antang smiled forcefully and unscrewed the bottle cap. After taking two big sips, he wiped his mouth and looked at the two of them. "At the same time, thank you for your trust in me and the Competition Committee.

You can’t let me go first…”

"Of course." Li Zheng nodded and stood up, "Then let's go outside for a while and then we can talk after you have made arrangements."

"No need." He Antang said and took another sip of water, then stood up and picked up the contact sheet on the bedside, and dialed a number according to the list.

"I am He Antang."

"Now, immediately, let Yang Shaokui delete all his spaces."

"qq space."

"Don't ask me, see for yourself."

He Antang's last words were said with anger, but he was not out of control to the point of swearing.

After putting down the phone and sitting still, He Antang suddenly raised his head: "Who knows now?"

Li Zheng replied without hesitation: "As far as I know, there are only two of us."

"Well..." He Antang finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded solemnly to the two of them, "Thank you very much, thank you sincerely. Not only are you excellent in academics, but you also have such a big picture view that transcends your age. If you hadn't already

If you recommend it, I will definitely recommend you to you."

In He Antang's eyes, after receiving the news, the two did not spread the news enthusiastically, but chose to contact the competition committee teacher to handle it. This is indeed a very mature performance.

However, if you think deeply, it is not difficult to find that even if they are immature, they will make the same choice just out of interest.

After all, they are the champions and runners-up.

People who are already at the top have no reason to expect any disturbance.

But Li Zheng's next action instantly shattered He Antang's thoughts.

In the room, Li Zheng stood up again and presented a piece of paper with both hands.

"This is a joint letter from 178 candidates requesting a retake,"

"There are 13 top 50 candidates, including me and Lin Yujing, as well as the third place Du Zicheng."

Facing the thin piece of paper presented by Li Zheng, He Antang didn't even think of reaching out to take it.

Facing the stunned He Antang, Li Zheng always maintained a slightly bowed posture with his hands raised.

"Teacher He, I know very well that this kind of behavior is childish and meaningless."

"But getting it to you is a sign of the trust these 178 people have placed in me."

"You can throw it into the shredder on the spot, it doesn't matter. This is actually a kind of protection for us."

He Antang reluctantly took the joint letter, folded it directly without reading it, and stuffed it under the bedside book.

What a contradiction...

He felt extremely conflicted.

On the one hand, Li Zheng and Lin Yujing believe in their teachers and the competition committee, and hope to keep their grades.

On the other hand, they are fighting against all of the above.

"You may feel very conflicted." Li Zheng said calmly, as if he had seen through He Antang's heart, "That's because you are on the opposite side of us. Just like most classmates and teachers, they are also on the side of the Competition Committee.

The opposite of.”

He Antang was startled, then sat back in front of the sofa thoughtfully, raising his hand to signal Li Zheng to continue.

Li Zheng still said calmly.

"The problem this time is not because of the Competition Committee, nor is it because of any individual candidate."

"Only between a few teachers who leaked the issue and the school administration of Huihu Middle School."

"They are the ones we must fight against together."

"We, you, and the Competition Commission are a united entity with unified goals and interests."

"We all long for fairer results and a brighter future for sports."

"So please don't think against us."

"As for many students, they did subconsciously stand on the opposite side of the Competition Committee and made some irrational voices."

"It is precisely because of this that Lin Yujing and I stood up, hoping to resolve this matter before it causes greater harm to more people."

The room fell silent again.

He Antang found that from the beginning, he had no room or need to speak.

In silence, He Antang took another sip of mineral water.

"It took a lot of trouble..." He twisted the bottle cap and sighed, "You two really took a lot of trouble."

Lin Yujing, who had been silent until now, said "Huh".

In fact, Li Zheng didn't bother much.

It was Dr. Qi Lin who single-handedly saw 178 futures.
To be continued...
