The Enigma Squad

The girl turned and looked at him in surprise, “What are you up to? We’re taking an essay exam, and the desks are so far apart. Even with my discounted 8.5 prescription glasses, you couldn’t cheat even with a telescope.”

Luo Yingbai said, “Oh, I’m just trying to create a psychological impression of being cultured to get a good grade. Come on, lend them to me, and I’ll buy you breakfast tomorrow!”

By then, Zou Ying had started unsealing the exam papers. The girl laughed and handed over her glasses case, slapping it into Luo Yingbai’s hand.

Her prescription wasn’t strong, and Luo Yingbai didn’t feel dizzy wearing them. About an hour into the exam, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Qi secretly reaching into his pocket and pulling out a crumpled piece of paper.

Luo Yingbai quickly stood up before Zhao Qi could drop the paper by his feet and loudly announced, “Teacher, Zhao Qi is cheating!”

A stone creates a thousand waves, and the class erupted in chaos. Zhao Qi was stunned.

His first instinct was to throw the paper away, but for some reason, he seemed frozen, unable to move. Classmates turned to look at Zhao Qi, and the sharp-eyed ones could already see the paper in his hand.

Zou Ying had prior knowledge of this situation but never expected Luo Yingbai to suddenly steal the show. She was momentarily shocked before reacting. She deliberately dawdled, seeing Zhao Qi sitting calmly, thinking he was prepared, but when she walked over, the note was still clutched in his hand – caught red-handed.

Fang Wei craned his neck to look: “Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!”

Zou Ying was distressed.

Exam cheating would go on record, and if she caught Zhao Qi, Dean Wang would hold a grudge. If she didn’t catch him, Luo Yingbai had shouted so loudly that the hallway could hear – how could she not catch him?

Helplessly, Zou Ying asked Zhao Qi to explain: “Zhao Qi, what exactly happened?”

Fortunately, there were no cameras in this classroom, so he could say anything. Zhao Qi took a deep breath to calm himself and said, “Teacher, I didn’t cheat. This paper rolled over from Luo Yingbai’s side. I just picked it up and hadn’t even opened it.”
