I Am a Great Scientist

Chapter 22: I placed a bet but couldn't take it

Views:

A bizarre "gamble" aroused the interest of many mathematics students in Class 2.

The bet is on whether Zhou Xing can get first place in the province in the college entrance examination. Bet five hundred and win five yuan.

The people participating in the gambling game seemed to be picking up money for free, surrounding Zheng Hai, participating in the "picking up money" gambling game, betting one-sidedly, Zhou Xing failed to win the "number one" in the exam, without thinking at all that he would lose.

Hundreds of thousands of candidates across the province asked Zhou Xing to take the first place. The difficulty was no less than the Grand Prize of the Lottery. No one with a normal mind thought they would lose. They rushed to surround Zheng Hai. Note.

"Haha, Zheng Hai, did you spend a lot of money? I'll give you five hundred too!"

"Zheng Hai, please tell everyone directly and just pay! Why is it so troublesome to remember names! Haha!"

"Zheng Hai, I want to sign up too, don't forget me!"

"Everyone, hurry up and get the money. Five yuan per person. Zheng Hai, this kid is rich!"

“…”

Zheng Hai was surrounded by people, and the originally quiet classroom was as lively as a vegetable market.

"It's class, what are you doing?" Jiang Wenqin walked into the classroom and shouted to stop the farce:

Hearing this, the students in Class 2 reluctantly left the "trembling" Zheng Hai and sat back down to prepare for class.

After the crowd dispersed, Jiang Wenqin glanced at Zheng Hai suspiciously, feeling a little disappointed.

Learning from the past, Jiang Wenqin thought that Zheng Hai, like Zhou Xing, had begun to study "seriously", but he knew that his face was pale and his expression was dull, and he was not in the state of "serious study" at all.

Jiang Wenqin turned his attention to Zhou Xing, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Zhou Xing sat upright and concentrated on doing the questions. He was not distracted even when she came in. This is what "serious study" should be like.

"Class begins now. Everyone, take out the test papers from the previous class and I will continue to explain!" Jiang Wenqin announced:

"Rustling..." rang out, and the students in Class 2 were looking for test papers.

Jiang Wenqin began to explain the topic, and the students listened attentively.

In the blink of an eye, the class passed peacefully.

The "Lingling" bell rang, and Jiang Wenqin announced the end of get out of class. As soon as he left the classroom, Zheng Hai stood up, but before he could escape from the classroom, he was blocked by the crowd.

"Zheng Hai, don't leave! My name hasn't been registered yet! Please fill it in quickly!"

"That's right! Brother Hai, don't favor one over the other! We girls have to bet too!"

"This bet is interesting, I want to participate too!"

“…”

A large group of boys and girls surrounded Zheng Hai and "pressed" him back to the table. They all said maliciously like gangsters:

Disaster comes from the mouth, and public anger is difficult to cause.

Faced with everyone's strong "bets", Zheng Hai was unable to resist and could only accept his fate and be "slaughtered".

There are 48 people in the class. Except for Zhou Xing, everyone and their families have all bet. If they lose, they have to pay two hundred and sixty.

"Grandma, just feed the dogs!"

Seeing the classmates leaving with satisfied smiles one by one, Zheng Hai's face was full of resentment.

Looking at Zhou Xing who was still concentrating on the problem, Zheng Hai had a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.

It's all Zhou Xing's kid who caused the trouble. If...

Zheng Hai seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up. It seemed that there was a way to recover this shortfall.

Zhou Xing is a kid from a good family. He usually spends money lavishly. Two to three hundred yuan is not a big amount for him. It shouldn't be difficult for him to pay for this money!

After making up his mind, Zheng Hai smiled and felt much better immediately.

"Zheng Hai, are you smiling so treacherously all of a sudden? Are you planning to default on your debt?" Wang Haitao glared at Zheng Hai and asked as if to guard against thieves:

"Damn! It's only two or three hundred yuan, what's the point for me?" Zheng Hai rolled his eyes speechlessly:

"That's not necessarily the case! This amount is enough for you to stay in an Internet cafe for a week. Can you bear not going there for a week?" Wang Haitao asked with a suspicious look on his face:

"Since I'm questioning my credibility, don't bet if you don't trust me!" Zheng Hai said angrily:

"Haha, no way, it's only five yuan, I want to see how lazy you are!" Wang Haitao laughed and refused to be fooled:

"Don't worry, I will never cheat, but if Zhou Xing wins the first prize, remember to prepare the money!" Zheng Hai gritted his teeth and glared at Wang Haitao:

"Haha, don't worry about this! Even if I sell myself, I will get the money together! Haha!" Wang Haitao seemed to have heard some funny joke and laughed happily:

"Selling yourself, you have a figure like yours, haha!" Zheng Hai looked Wang Haitao up and down and smiled with disdain:

"Haha, selling yourself is just a joke, you take it seriously!" Wang Haitao laughed and looked at Zheng Hai jokingly:

Hearing this, Zheng Hai secretly resented it and decided to have a good chat with Zhou Xing after school.

Time flies and several classes pass.

Finally, when the school bell rang and most of the students left the classroom, Zheng Hai walked slowly to Zhou Xing.

In the forced learning state, Zhou Xing still concentrated on doing the exercises. After finishing one question, he moved on to the next one. As for the school bell, he was ready to apologize to Tang Xin or something... The evil Great Scientist Assistant System would not allow him to be distracted.

Zheng Hai stood there for five or six minutes, unable to wait until Zhou Xing stopped writing and doing the questions.

"Zhou Xing, school is over. Do you want to stop for a moment?" Zheng Hai frowned and interrupted:

Zhou Xing seemed to have not heard Zheng Hai's words and turned a deaf ear.

"Zhou Xing, please stop for a moment. I have something to tell you." Zheng Hai frowned and patted Zhou Xing on the shoulder:

"If you have anything to say, please wait a moment. Fifteen minutes, wait until I finish these questions!" Zhou Xing frowned, looked up at Zheng Hai, and said solemnly:

After saying that, Zhou Xing lowered his head and continued to work on the questions, without looking at Zheng Hai again.

Hearing this, Zheng Hai was stunned for a moment. Looking at Zhou Xing's concentration on the question, he resisted the thought of continuing to reach out and interrupt him from doing the question.

Zheng Hai stood there like a puppet, blankly watching Zhou Xing solve the problem.

I saw Zhou Xing writing quickly. He glanced at the title, thought for a moment, and started writing immediately.

Before writing, Zhou Xing already knew the steps to solve the problem. When he started writing, the steps and results were completed in one go.

Fifteen minutes passed by in a flash, and the forced learning state was temporarily lifted.

Zhou Xing's tense spirit relaxed. After completing the last question, he exhaled heavily.

"What do you want from me?" Zhou Xing put down his pen and looked up at Zheng Hai:

"Uh, it's about the gambling game!" Zheng Hai suddenly came back to his senses, nodded and said:

For more than ten minutes, Zheng Hai watched Zhou Xing do the questions. Zheng Hai seemed to have discovered an unknown secret. Zhou Xing was quickly transforming into a top student. He almost did the questions without thinking. It was rare that he could stump him. Even if a difficult question arose, he would just think about it for a few more seconds.

Because of the gambling game, the class was very lively in the morning, and Zhou Xing "heard a little bit about it", but the system interfered and he couldn't pay too much attention.

"Huh? What happened next?" Zhou Xing frowned and looked at Zheng Hai in confusion:

"It's like this. I was caught talking about it when I was chatting with Haitao this morning, and we made a bet..." Zheng Hai introduced to Zhou Xing in detail the causes and consequences of the "bet":

It was certainly unpleasant to be used as a prop in a gambling game, but Zheng Hai's delayed explanation made Zhou Xing even more uncomfortable.

"To make a long story short, what do you want me to do?" Zhou Xing waved his hand and interrupted:

"Um... um... are you sure you will be admitted to the 'No. 1 Scholar' exam?" When the words came to an end, it was difficult to speak. Zheng Hai asked sheepishly:

With Zhou Xing's IQ of 141 points, he could immediately guess what Zheng Hai really wanted to say from his hesitant expression.

The purpose of Zheng Hai's search for him was to ask him to pay the compensation on his behalf.

"I also want to participate in the bet, will you accept it?" Zhou Xing said lightly:

"What do you mean?" Zheng Hai asked with an ugly expression:
