I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 65 Has Qin Ke been answering questions with a high fever?
Shi Cunyuan shook his head and sighed: "But even if he uses the construction method and the area method, it doesn't take two hours to prove the second question. It's a pity that the exam time is only three hours. Your trick is too cruel."

Deng Hongguo was silent for a moment, and then said bitterly: "Brother Cunyuan, the Olympiad is developing too fast abroad. To tell you the truth, my trap question type is actually just picking people's teeth. If that kid can't even solve this level, He still has a long way to go.”

The two were talking in a low voice, trying to keep their footsteps as light as possible so as not to disturb the examination room by the corridor.

When he came to Qin Ke's examination room, Shi Cunyuan pointed to Qin Ke from the back door, Deng Hongguo made a gesture of "I can go in by myself", Shi Cunyuan nodded and stayed in the corridor.

He also does not want to affect the candidates inside to answer the questions.

The three invigilators had received the notice early on and knew that their superiors would send people to inspect the exams, so they did not stop Deng Hongguo who came with Shi Cunyuan, but nodded respectfully, and continued to perform their duties repeatedly, patrolling around, and taking care of themselves most responsibly. , The most spiritual side is shown.

Deng Hongguo's footsteps were deliberately light, so his appearance did not attract the attention of many candidates.

Deng Hongguo casually looked at the answers of each candidate, and he was not optimistic. Most of them could barely answer two or three questions, and they might not be able to do all of them correctly.

Seeing their frowning, sweating, and pale lips, Deng Hongguo secretly sighed. Even the provincial competition has been so hard. There may not be two or three candidates in this examination room who can enter the national competition. up.

Even though Xia Kingdom is a huge country, it is not easy to find a real top math genius.

He walked behind Qin Ke slowly, and looked at Qin Ke's paper expectantly.

After seeing it, he was stunned, and there was a hint of surprise and disappointment in his eyes.

Qin Ke was already solving the eighth major question of the main paper, and compared to the rest of the candidates present, he was already considered extremely remarkable.

But the problem is, it has been almost two hours since the exam started!
Qin Ke actually only managed the eighth big question!The ninth and tenth questions in the back are still empty!
Didn't Shi Cunyuan say that this kid originally took less than 6 minutes to solve the two provincial problems?Even if the ten major questions are a little more difficult this time, as for taking nearly two hours to solve the eight major questions?
That's an average of nearly 15 minutes to finish a question!
Compared with ordinary candidates, it is indeed fast, but compared with his amazing speed in the last exam, it is really inferior. At most, he can be called a top student in Olympiad. Character.

What's more, it is not sure whether Qin Ke has completed all the previous seven questions.

At this time, Qin Ke had slowly finished writing the answer to the eighth question, and began to look at the ninth question.

Deng Hongguo stood quietly behind him, watched him answer the questions, and took a look at the seventh and eighth questions on the same page.

Well, I got the eighth question right, and I also got the seventh question above right. The solutions are all pretty good, but unfortunately only one solution was used, which didn’t surprise or shock people.

Look at the title of the ninth question again, it is not difficult, it is barely a little more difficult than the seventh and eighth questions.

But to Deng Hongguo's surprise, Qin Ke thought about it for nearly 5 minutes before slowly writing.

Deng Hongguo frowned even tighter.

Such a topic, actually have to think about 5 minutes?

And this kid is writing too slowly, right?Shouldn't it be thinking while writing?

Deng Hongguo couldn't hide the disappointment on his face. What he wanted to find was a top-notch gifted student, not a top student in Mathematics Olympiad within the scope of common sense.

With Qin Ke's current strength, he can certainly join his national team training team, but he is only at the upper middle level in the team. , The top talent level that dominates.

Sure enough, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment... Even my old classmate, who has always been known for his pragmatism, meticulousness, and unique vision, sometimes misses it.

Deng Hongguo shook his head, feeling an unspeakable sense of loss in his heart.

He turned around and walked over to continue watching the other students' answers, but it only made him more disappointed.

He walked back to the corridor, shook his head with a wry smile at Shi Cunyuan, then said nothing, and went down the stairs first, Shi Cunyuan quickly caught up with them, and the two left together.

……

Qin Ke didn't notice the existence of Deng Hongguo at all, and struggled to finish the answer to the ninth question with the pen held in his weak hand. His brain was dizzy, the test paper in front of him was already spinning, and his forehead was full of sweat.

At this moment, Qin Ke didn't think of any role models to motivate him, nor did he think of any past events to strengthen his determination, he didn't have the strength.

There was only one thought left in his mind - there was one last question left, no matter what, he had to finish it!

Pinching his thigh again, the intense pain made Qin Ke concentrate the last bit of concentration. It only took three seconds to finish reading the question, and then five seconds to think of the most convenient solution.

He was half lying on the table, and with trembling hands, he slowly wrote down the steps of solving the problem in just nine lines.

The moment he put down the pen, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was done!
All done!
As soon as Qin Ke's tense mental will was relaxed, he felt his eyes darken, and his consciousness slipped into the darkness.

……

After walking out of the examination building, seeing Deng Hongguo remained silent, Shi Cunyuan said unexpectedly: "Why, Lao Deng, this Qin Ke still doesn't satisfy you?"

"Brother Cunyuan, to be honest, I now doubt what you said last time, that this candidate completed such a high-quality answer sheet within an hour and a half. I have seen the level of this student, and he does have the ability to enter the national training team , but it is limited to this, far less genius than you said."

Shi Cunyuan's gray brows were frowned: "Qin Ke did not pass the test in this provincial competition?"

"It's not average, it's just that it doesn't have the amazing feeling that a top talent seedling gives. I just looked at it, and he just did the ninth question of the main paper. The answer is correct, but each question only uses one For the solution, it has been two hours now, and at his speed, he can finish the tenth question, and he will not be able to solve the two additional questions I asked in the remaining half an hour."

Speaking of this, Deng Hongguo frowned, and his hoarse voice could not hide his loss: "Brother Cunyuan, I am really disappointed. It is not difficult to find twenty or thirty such students in my training team. If His level and potential are limited to this, and my trip was a waste of time."

Shi Cunyuan wondered: "It's strange, logically speaking, Qin Ke should be more than this level, he is very spiritual in solving the questions, and his mental arithmetic ability is very heaven-defying. By the way, is his scratch paper useful?"

"Scratch paper? Hey, it seems that it is indeed empty... But even so, I just saw him spend more than five minutes thinking about the ninth question, and he wrote the answer very slowly, as if he had to write while thinking. The mental arithmetic ability that came out didn't surprise me too much."

At this moment, the two of them suddenly heard a commotion coming from a certain examination room in the examination building, and couldn't help but look back together.

Not long after, they saw a male invigilator carrying a candidate on his back and hurried downstairs under the escort of the staff.

Someone else crashed the exam?This kind of thing is not uncommon, Deng Hongguo just took a look and then looked away.

Candidates with such a bad mentality have no interest in understanding.

Shi Cunyuan was responsible for discipline and inspection, so he went over and asked, "What's wrong with this candidate?"

"Ah, it's Team Leader Shi. This examinee has a high fever, which is very serious. He is now in a coma. We are about to send him to the infirmary."

"Oh, hurry up...Huh, Qin Ke?" Shi Cunyuan's eyes fell on the candidate who was being carried on his back, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.

The examinee's eyes were closed tightly, and he had lost consciousness. His originally handsome and straight face was flushed red, and even the breath he exhaled turned into a white column of air. , Who is Qin Ke who hasn't met once before?
The staff saw Shi Cunyuan exclaimed, and said unexpectedly: "Group leader Shi knows this candidate? As soon as he put down the pen just now, he fell on the table and lost consciousness, which shocked us..."

Shi Cunyuan came back to his senses, and hurriedly urged: "Stop talking nonsense, send this candidate to the infirmary! As quickly as possible!"

Seeing Shi Cunyuan's nervous attitude, the staff and the invigilator didn't dare to hesitate, so they hurriedly quickened their pace.

Shi Cunyuan caught up a few steps, then turned to Deng Hongguo and said, "Old Deng, I'm going to take a look, you..."

"I'll go and have a look too." Deng Hongguo was also shocked when he heard the name "Qin Ke", and hurriedly followed.

Several people sent Qin Ke to the infirmary of the Provincial Cultural and Sports Center, and there was another flutter.

Fortunately, there are experienced doctors here, who quickly gave Qin Ke a drip and antipyretics after the examination.

After the fuss was over, looking at Qin Ke lying on the hospital bed, Deng Hongguo suddenly asked, "Doctor, can this candidate return to the examination room later?"

"Nonsense! This child's body temperature has reached 39.7 degrees, and he is also in a coma. What's the test in such a physical state?" The doctor stared, and said angrily:

"Do you, the teacher who leads the team, have any sense of responsibility? Didn't you notice that the child was burnt like this? And let him take such a brain-intensive Mathematical Olympiad test! Is it because of your school's grades that you have to kill the child? Forced? If I were the parent of this child, I would definitely call out two big ears!"

The doctor didn't know Deng Hongguo, so he thought it was the teacher leading the child with a fever, so he spoke very rudely in anger.

His daughter is also a high school student of the same age, and she is filled with righteous indignation under the empathy.

Deng Hongguo didn't care about the doctor's words, but a thought flashed in his heart in astonishment—so Qin Ke answered the questions while he was suffering from a high fever?
Deng Hongguo had been watching Qin Ke answer the questions just now, but he really didn't notice that there was something wrong with his appearance.

But... 39 degrees, normal people would have passed out early, how did Qin Ke persist for so long?This kind of will and perseverance are really hard for most adults to match!And studying mathematics, isn't it the tenacity to never give up and fight hard to the end?
The more Deng Hongguo thought about it, the more shocked he became. It seemed necessary to include Qin Ke in the list of key observations.

Seeing that Qin Ke had settled down on the hospital bed, Shi Cunyuan asked the doctor to make sure that there was no danger, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the staff, "Please go to the waiting area outside the examination room and inform the teacher who is leading the examinee. His name is Qin Ke, he is a student of Yingyuan High School."

"Yes, Team Leader Shi." The staff responded and left.

Shi Cunyuan asked the doctor to take good care of Qin Ke, and then regretted to Deng Hongguo: "It seems that Qin Ke has no way to continue the exam this time, so I can only treat him as handing in the papers ahead of time. I'm going to the exam room to appease the candidates and deal with follow-up matters , Lao Deng, you..."

When Deng Hongguo heard that the doctor said that Qin Ke was fine, he felt relieved, and said, "I'll go too, and let's see how Qin Ke answers under the high fever!"
