Chapter 16: Cheating?
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
A tall, thin boy with blond hair stood up and mocked, “Everyone has to take responsibility for their own words. If the promise can be easily taken back, then why do we need the police?”
“Since Adams has made that promise, then he must abide by it.”
“Otherwise, even if the proctor can let him go this time, will he still have the face to stay in school in the future?”

After hearing the blond boy’s words, Jessica and Peter’s expressions changed on the spot.
These words were too vicious!
After he said those words, even if the invigilator let Adams off this time, it would be difficult for Adams to raise his head in school in the future.
Moreover, this matter would definitely spread out. When that time came, Adams would be even more disgraceful in school!
Therefore, the blond boy’s words almost forced Adams into a dead end!
“Gail, what has this got to do with you?! What nonsense are you talking about?!”
Peter stood up on the spot and pointed at the blond boy.
“Adams, don’t take his words to heart,” Jessica comforted Adams softly.
“Hehe, am I wrong?”
Gail’s face was full of disdain. When he saw Jessica comforting Adams, his face became even colder.
“Students, is what I said not the truth?!”
When he said this, many students in the class nodded in agreement. What Gail said was very reasonable.
Seeing that many students in the class nodded and supported his words, Gail could not help but look a little proud.
Like Gerrard, he also liked Jessica very much.

However, Jessica seemed to be possessed. She was madly infatuated with the poor boy, Adams. She didn’t care about the others and didn’t want to pay attention to them.
This made Gail very jealous of Adams.
At the same time, he was also the nephew of the invigilator. The relationship between the two was very good.
At this time, when he saw Adams and the invigilator quarreling, one side was his uncle who treated him extremely well, and the other was his love rival. Then, regardless of whether it was in terms of love or reason, he would definitely help his uncle first.
“Teacher, please let Adams go! He doesn’t mean that!”

Seeing that the situation was getting worse for Adams, Jessica stood up and pleaded to the invigilator, wanting to make one last effort.
“Hmph, Jessica, you’re a good student. There’s no need to help a bad student like Adams, right?”
Gail saw that Jessica was still defending Adams in this situation, and he immediately became tired of being jealous. His tone was sour.
However, after Jessica heard his words, she didn’t even look at him. She continued to look at the invigilator with a pleading face, as if she didn’t hear him at all.
Or perhaps she simply treated him as an insignificant character.
When Gail saw Jessica like this, he was so angry that his nose was almost crooked. He quickly said angrily, “Teacher, I think you can start your bet!”
The invigilator nodded and put on a troubled expression as he said to Jessica hypocritically, “It’s not that the teacher doesn’t give you face, nor is it that the teacher wants to target Adams.”

“The words have already been said. As a teacher, how can I take back what I said?”

“Moreover, these conditions were personally agreed by Adams. I didn’t force him.”
“So, although the teacher really wants to help you, there’s really nothing he can do.”
At this time, the invigilator was acting very amiably, just like a teacher who was the most amiable and respected his students.
“Are you done with your nonsense? Let’s begin.” Adams looked at the invigilator’s clumsy performance and wanted to laugh.
He only wanted to end this farce and find a place to smoke a cigarette and eat a mouthful of hamburger.
The invigilator saw that Adams was about to die, but he was still stubborn and did not beg for mercy. He could not help but sneer in his heart:
‘Soon, you won’t be able to be proud anymore!’
“Then let’s begin!”
After making such a fuss for so long, the invigilator did not want to waste any more time. He picked up the paper on Adams’ desk and read it while saying sarcastically, “Hehe, there’s no need to check the paper of a lousy student like you. In any case, you will fail!”
“You’d better think about which street you’re going to be a hooligan on next!”
“Oh, you even got a few lucky ones at the beginning. Looks like you’re pretty lucky today!”
“But unfortunately, the exam depends on strength, not luck. You’re definitely not going to get any… right?!”
The invigilator’s speed of speech began to slow down. His mocking expression also gradually froze, and a few drops of cold sweat slowly broke out on his forehead.
“How, how… How is this possible?!”
His voice was filled with disbelief, as if he could not believe what he was seeing. He began to doubt his own eyes.
“Correct, the correct rate actually reached more than 80%. This is impossible!”
The invigilator’s words attracted the attention of the students. They scrambled to gather around the invigilator and began to read Adams’ test paper.

“This, he did this question correctly! I reviewed it last night!”
“This question is also correct. I just happen to know it. I am 100% sure!”
“What are you all talking about? Why can’t I understand anything?”
“Nonsense, how can someone like you who is always third from the bottom be able to understand such a paper!”
“If you can understand it, that would be strange!”
“How is that possible? When did Adams become so amazing?!”
The students engaged in an intense discussion. Their words were filled with disbelief.
A boy wearing glasses with an elegant temperament suddenly said, “His paper has at least 80 points.”
He was the person with the best results in the class. He had scored more than 99 points in almost every test. He was the first in the class and also the first in the grade.
He had even corrected the teacher’s mistakes more than once during class.
2
Since he said that Adams had scored more than 80 points, he definitely scored more than 80 points!
Therefore, when the bespectacled boy said this, the students in the class believed that Adams had scored 80 points!
When did Adams’ academic results become so impressive?!
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible…”
The invigilator seemed to have been struck by lightning. He stood rooted to the ground and recalled what he had just said. If Adams could pass, he would resign. He wished he could give himself a slap.
“Cheating! You must be cheating!”
