Chapter 45: The Sleeping God of the College Entrance Examination
Can you sleep in the exam room?
Even great educators cannot give an accurate answer to this question. However, one thing is certain: the discipline of the examination room allows candidates to freely allocate their time.
Three examiners stood together, whispering to each other for 20 seconds, then returned to their respective positions, continuing with what they were doing as if nothing had happened.
The latter slept even more sweetly. His wrist was wearing a powerful vibrating watch, which had been set to the right time, and even if he really couldn't wake up, the invigilating teachers would have to shout him awake in order to get the test paper.
Thanks to the double insurance measures, Chen Yi, who finished the 1-hour answer sheet in 20 minutes, slept soundly like a baby - the high school examination room is absolutely the safest and most ideal place to sleep, as long as you don't violate the rules, not only will no one disturb you, but someone will also actively maintain a quiet environment, cracking down on any wild horses that dare to make noise.
The rolling time just ended, at the most tired time, Chen Yi got the most sufficient sleep. The energy recovery potion played its greatest role at this moment.
The 90 minutes passed quickly.
The examiner clapped his hands loudly and deliberately stood beside Chen Yi, shouting: "Everyone, time's up! Please put your papers on the top left corner of your desk. Teachers will come to collect them..."
Just as he was about to repeat himself, the wooden desktop suddenly creaked.
All students and teachers at the same time have a familiar feeling - every morning, aren't we all waking up to similar alarm clocks?
Another look, Chen Yi's movements were even more skilled. First, he turned off the vibrating watch that was pressed against his head. Then, he took a big gulp of water, and then rubbed his eyes hard, pouring a little water into his hands to wash his face.
Wash your face!
He is washing his face!
He washed his face on the high school exam site!
The examiner's fingers bent and grasped downwards along the wall with force from top to bottom.
The best portrayal of "going crazy".
Of course, if Timothy saw someone using a 3rd-level energy recovery potion to wash their face, he would probably copy the same action.
The deputy examiner came to Chen Yi's side with a smile and said in a low voice: "Hand in your paper (1)."
He originally thought he would see a brand new test paper, or a half-finished product that had been ravaged, but unexpectedly the other person didn't say a word, just glanced at the name and answer sheet, and threw it to himself.
It's all done?
The examiner didn't have time to look closely either, and after glancing at Chen Yi from head to toe, said: "Later on, answer the questions seriously, don't sleep again."
Chen Yi smiled and still didn't say a word.
Han Jie blinked her eyes repeatedly, quite puzzled by his behavior.
Wang Dong didn't show any unexpected expression, he himself used 80 minutes to answer the questions and felt that time was tight, so he couldn't think of how Chen Yi could finish the test in just 20 minutes. A normal student would want to check their answers eight or ten times in such an important exam, with a 90-minute time limit, who would sleep for 70 minutes?
Or, which normal student would sleep during the college entrance examination?
The second test paper was passed out from the first seat of each row in order.
There is only composition on this paper.
Chen Yi, as usual, ignored everyone and started reading on his own.
Just being a third-tier roller can make the entire college entrance examination lose its difficulty for him, and the only project that is sure to lose points is the composition - it's too difficult to get full marks, while the intelligence roller can play a role.
Chen Yi's approach was to tear open a 3rd-level Listening Scroll.
Compared to the Intelligence Scroll, the Hearing Scroll's effectiveness is largely related to the classmates in the classroom. If there are no experts in the entire examination room, then listening to others' thoughts would lose its meaning.
In Chen Yi's impression, Han Jie's language scores had always been exceptionally good. So he didn't think much of it and after the scroll took effect, he turned to Han Jie first.
At this moment, most people have already entered a thinking process. However, what Chen Yi heard was "How is he?"
What a strange analysis method. Chen Yi thought to himself and concentrated again to listen.
Han Jie's thoughts were indeed in disarray for a while, and it wasn't until about two or three minutes later that she turned her attention to thinking about the composition.
Chen Yi waited patiently for a moment, received two or three words, and then turned to other classmates again.
Hearing both sides makes things clear; while absorbing the results of other students, Chen Yi was also thinking for himself.
The examiner looked at him with extreme concern, occasionally walking around him in a circle, afraid that he would fall asleep while thinking.
However, this one hour was the most normal hour for Chen Yi in the past two days. He used up all 60 minutes and filled every corner of the test paper...
It was during the exam break that Chen Yi used his listening skills and heard the voice in the ear of a classmate to his right front.
Obviously another guy who buys answers. But I don't know if he is a high-end customer like Luo Xiaoshan, or a small fish from a street shop that has slipped through the net.
Chen Yi didn't take it to heart and re-read his own article again.
The bell will ring soon, also marking the end of morning language class.
Chen Yi and Han Jie walked out of the classroom side by side, exchanging a smile.
Afternoon.
Chen Yi was moved out of the campus while he was asleep.
And the first thing he did when he sat down in the examination room was to continue sleeping.
Because the two exams are too close in time, the time spent recovering from the 3rd level scroll is clearly not enough. Frantically drinking energy recovery potions cannot thoroughly solve the problem - a tired spirit will reduce the effectiveness of the scrolls, which is something Chen Yi cannot allow.
So the best choice is to sleep well and then do the questions, even if it means wasting one and a half hours of answer sheet time.
The proctor of the math field has been replaced, and the new chief examiner is slender in build, with a wide upper face and a narrow lower face, resembling a richly postured seahorse.
He smiled and nodded in the classroom, explaining the precautions to everyone.
However, 1 hour and 20 minutes later, his fingers also curled up.
Having been an invigilator for many years, it's not unusual to see examinees sleeping. He has seen the bored sleeper type, the helpless sleeper type, the drowsy passive sleeper type, the waiting-for-answers sleeper type, the heatstroke fainting sleeper type, and the wrong-medicine half-asleep type... but he had never seen a student who set an alarm clock to sleep in the exam room. And after waking up, they even washed their face and rinsed their mouth, then actively answered the questions...
It doesn't matter anyway...
Does it matter!
The teacher was furious like a seahorse trying to shoot out its tail.
The students in the classroom were even more stunned and at a loss for what to do.
Chen Yi ignored everyone, took a deep breath, picked up his pen and started doing the first question.
He was playing with a water bottle when he had already torn open a third-level intelligence scroll to deal with math problems, just in time.
The sound of Shasha's writing is so clear in the quiet classroom.
Everyone suddenly enlightened, and they all retook the exam.
Only three examiners were left, staring at each other with wide eyes, unsure of what to think.
Before the exam was over, Jiangning's reputation as a sleeping god had already spread out of the campus and throughout the surrounding areas...
Local Jiangning forum, even more prominently with red title pinned "Rumor has it that the 'Sleeping God' of Gaokao is born, said to be a former mock exam champion!"
The last sentence is obviously set up to attract attention.
Chen Yi, on the other hand, didn't care about these things at all. As soon as the math exam was over, he rushed to the teacher's office where He Tao was. He used the remaining few minutes of the exam to think carefully about the problem with He's family and the earphones, feeling that there was great potential.
He Tao left the examination room alone.
Chen Yi didn't look at him, but instead carefully observed other people in the same examination room, memorizing two familiar faces before leaving.
The parents waiting anxiously in the car are no different from others outside.
"Math 145 is definitely available," Chen Yi said, adding "Going to Uncle's house, something came up."
Forget it, just sleep soundly from now on.
