Chapter 3 of Volume 1: When you want to sleep, someone sends a pillow at the third watch
"Call"
Hiding in the room, I heard Lin Ruxue's voice answering the phone on the other side, and Xiao Tianruo finally let out a sigh of relief.
Just a few minutes later, Xiao Tianruo heard another faint sound of opening and closing doors. After investigating the "enemy situation" and confirming that his mother had left, Xiao Tianruo felt relieved and boldly crawled out of the room, returning to the study next door. What Xiao Tianruo had just promised his parents was easy to say, but so far, he hadn't even remembered how many subjects were tested in the college entrance exam.
After flipping through for a while, Xiao Tian Ruo finally found the examination necessities that had been prepared in the corner.
According to the information on the admission ticket, Fengling Province (purely fictional, for reference only, at your own risk) adopted the "3+x+1" exam mode this year. The last "1" refers to social basic knowledge. The remaining subjects are language, mathematics, foreign languages, and science comprehensive. The total score of the first four subjects is 750 points, plus 100 points for social foundation, making a full score of 850 points. According to the target noted next to the notebook, in order to be admitted to Qingzhu University, a key university in Lin City, Xiao Tianyou must score at least 760 points to be safe.
After understanding the scores required for the exam, Xiao Tianruo flipped through the sample volume next to him and took a casual glance. He had a general idea in his mind.
Firstly, the comprehensive and mathematics sections were as easy for Xiao Tianruo as a math Ph.D. doing elementary school math problems, so these two subjects could be skipped directly. As for English, Xiao Tianruo also skipped it directly. This thing was just a piece of paper covered with tadpoles, looking at it was pointless. As for the remaining two subjects, Chinese language Xiao Tianruo barely remembered how to write characters, and social studies Xiao Tianruo vaguely remembered that computers were still quite high-tech in this era, that's all there was to it.
Xiao Tianruo returned to his room with a clear conscience. Of course, Xiao Tianruo couldn't really sleep after lying down on the bed. He had to seize the time to accumulate divine power for cheating in tomorrow's exam!
The next day, he calculated the time it took to get from home to the examination hall and meditated for a night. Xiao Tian Ruo pushed open the door on time. Knowing that his parents had been busy until dawn last night, Xiao Tian Ruo quietly picked up the change left by his mother on the tea table and put it in his pocket before leaving the house.
As soon as he walked out of the building, Xiao Tianyou immediately compared the streets and landmark buildings in front of him with the city map he had looked at last night. However, it didn't take long for Xiao Tianyou to be confused. Although there were several new high-rise buildings more than 100 meters away that were much higher than the surrounding ones, these high-rise buildings did not exist on the map he had looked at last night.
Just as Xiao Tianyou thought he had to return home to ask his mother to send him off, he suddenly saw a girl in a white dress waving at him from outside the courtyard, separated by the large iron gate.
"Heavens! How come you're just coming out now?! Hurry up, being late is going to be a bother!"
As he approached, Xiao Tian finally got a clear look at the girl who was about his age: she wore a pure white old-fashioned dress that was slightly tacky but very clean and tidy; her face had no signs of makeup, but her fair and delicate skin didn't need any embellishment; the two braids behind her head matched with a pair of bright and lively eyes, adding to her innocent and lovely aura.
"Are you also taking the exam at Municipal No. 2 Middle School?"
She roughly guessed that this seemingly innocent little girl should be a candidate of the same session as herself, and Xiao Tian Ruo came over just to see if she could lead her to the examination hall.
"Hey, Tian Ruo. I'm sitting two seats in front of you. We went to check out the exam venue together that day, didn't you review carefully? " The girl who had been waiting at the school gate for half a day with her big, shiny eyes blinked several times before asking with a puzzled expression. Suddenly remembering the urgency of time, she moved her small hands, wanting to pull Tian Ruo out, but didn't dare stretch them out. After hesitating for half a day, she finally gave in and urged Tian Ruo: "Hurry up and let's go, we'll be late!"
"Mmm", whenever she wanted to sleep, someone would send her a pillow. Xiao Tian Ruo was also overjoyed. As soon as he went forward, he prepared to hug the little girl's fragrant shoulders, but realizing that the other party was a girl, his hand hesitated and turned at an angle, only holding the girl's hand, saying: "Let's hurry up~"
"What's going on in the streets?"
Xiao Tian took hold of her hand, and the girl shook her arm but didn't dare to pull it back.
Cough cough
At the reminder of the little girl, Xiao Tianruo immediately coughed awkwardly twice. Because his mental age was already several thousand years old, Xiao Tianruo had just treated the other as a child, and when he came to his senses, he hurriedly let go of the girl's hand.
"How's your review going, Tianyao?"
Due to that brief interlude, the two people on the road both seemed a bit awkward. Finally, after walking for over ten minutes, the girl following behind Xiao Tian Ruo was the first to ask timidly.
"Uh, why don't you tell me about your review first? How's it going, are you confident about today's exam?"
As he walked, he was still thinking about how to use the little bit of divine power he had accumulated with great difficulty to cheat. Suddenly, he remembered that the little girl behind him was from the same examination hall as himself. Xiao Tianruo suddenly came up with a bold idea. He stopped and stared at the girl's big eyes with expectation, asking:
"Today's yeah, I shouldn't have any problem with Chinese class, I'm the representative of our class' Chinese class. This afternoon's"
"How's your English?"
It sounds like this little girl is learning well, Xiao Tian Ruo immediately became excited, and here comes the pillow again.
"You know my usual exam scores, right? I've never scored below 140 in an English test!"
The girl who had been following Xiao Tianyo's back with a hint of dissatisfaction, pouted and proudly replied.
"Great, let me see your admission ticket!"
The girl did very well in the two subjects she was least confident in, and Xiao Tian Ruo was even more excited, almost to the point of dancing with joy. For thousands of years, her temperament had not changed much.
"Oh" Although it was a bit strange, Xiao Tianruo's request, the girl still obediently pulled out her admission ticket from her backpack. "Right, Tianruo, where are your stationery and admission ticket? You didn't forget to bring them, did you?" As soon as she thought of this, the little girl suddenly became tense, afraid that Xiao Tianruo would slap his forehead and confirm her guess. They had already walked so far, and if they went back to get their things now, it would be too late!
"Here it is in my pocket, okay? Xu Jingyin, here's your admission ticket, take it back."
Xiao Tianruo now wanted to confirm Xu Jingyun's admission ticket, just to confirm her position. After checking the seat number, Xu Jingyun was indeed sitting in front of him, only one seat away. He also took a glance at the examinee information and handed Xu Jingyun's admission ticket back to her.
"Is that so?"
She couldn't help but take another look at the two slightly bulging pockets on Xiao Tian's large pants, and Xu Jingyin didn't dare to imagine that such an important thing as the admission ticket would be casually stuffed in there.
"Jing Yin, when you're taking a test, after finishing each question, silently recite the question number and answer in your heart, got it?"
Leading the obedient little girl, they walked for another ten or so minutes. Ahead of them, they could already see the gathering stream of examinees. Xiao Tian Ruo then lowered his voice and instructed Xu Jing Yin.
