At 12:30 noon, the sixth grade monthly exam and the math exam begin.
Chen Yu sat in the only seat in the classroom and took the test paper from the math invigilator.
Perhaps it was the suggestion of the previous English teacher that there were two invigilators for this math exam.
One is a substitute mathematics teacher for Class 2, Grade 2, and the other is the leader of the mathematics group.
"Classmate Chen Yu, write your name first and wait for the bell to ring before you can start answering the paper." the mathematics teacher reminded him kindly.
"clear."
Chen Yu nodded, picked up the newly bought pen, wrote his name, and then began to review the questions.
At this time, the math team leader on the side pulled two chairs from next door and sat on either side of Chen Yu with the math teacher.
Chen Yu: "..."
Then, the math teacher took out two large bags of snacks from his arms and handed one of the bags to the math team leader: "Team leader, here you go."
"Thank you." The team leader took it happily.
Chen Yu: "..."
Through the transparent plastic bag, he could see clearly what snacks were inside.
Melon seeds, dried fruits, potato chips, shrimp crackers, spicy strips... and even instant noodles...
The mathematics teacher stared at Chen Yu.
The math team leader also stared at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu stared at the table.
There was an eerie silence in the examination room.
“…”
“…”
“…”
"Ring ring ring!"
The bell indicating the start of the exam suddenly rang!
The three of them also started taking action at the same time.
Chen Yu answered the question.
The math teacher and team leader opened the package and ate the melon seeds!
"Click."
"Click."
"Click..."
The vibration caused by human teeth cracking the shell of melon seeds spreads through the air and pours into Chen Yu's ears.
"Click."
"Click..."
Crisp and melodious…
Chen Yu: "..."
The tip of the pen stayed on the first question for a moment, and Chen Yu said expressionlessly: "Isn't it a bit unethical to do this?"
"What's wrong?" The math teacher was confused: "Chen Yu, do you have any questions?"
"You guys are eating melon seeds here, is it normal?"
"This is Chen Yu." The leader of the mathematics team pushed up his glasses and explained seriously: "In order to prevent teachers from being bored when invigilating exams, the school allows teachers to eat some snacks. In other examination rooms, teachers also eat snacks."
"There are many students in other examination rooms, and the invigilator is far away. It's totally different from you sticking it under my ear and eating it, right?!"
"Oh." The math teacher nodded and handed out the melon seeds: "So you want to eat them too?"
"...That's not what I'm talking about!" Chen Yu roared: "I'm talking about you eating here! It's affecting my exam!"
"Classmate Chen Yu, there is something wrong with what you said." The math team leader on the left said slowly: "How many decibels can we make when we eat melon seeds? It is not as loud as your sneezing, so how can it affect you?" "
"Yes, yes." The math teacher on the right agreed: "A calm mind can lead to a quiet voice. Chen Yu, if your mind is not calm, what does it have to do with the teachers?"
Left: "Is the test paper too difficult? Does it make you famous?"
On the right: "If you feel like you can't continue writing, the three of us can fight the landlord for a while."
Left: "Good idea, I will win the melon seeds."
Right: "Classmate Chen Yu, why are there veins on your forehead? Does your head hurt?"
Left: "If you are not in good condition, don't take the exam. Your health is important..."
"Boom!"
Chen Yu slammed his fists on the table: "Stop arguing! I have to take a test!"
The math teacher and the math team leader were startled, looked at each other, and started eating melon seeds again.
"It's just a test, it's not like I won't let you take the test."
"That's right, what's the point of losing your temper..."
"Click."
"Click."
"Click..."
Chen Yu: "..."
Amidst the crackling sounds of melon seed shells, Chen Yu struggled to finish ten multiple-choice questions.
The two proctors also finished eating the melon seeds.
Chen Yu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his brows slightly.
But then, he took out potato chips one on the left and the other on the right, put them in his mouth and chewed them hard.
"Kachi."
"Kachi."
"Ka ka chi chi..."
Chen Yu: "..."
Twenty minutes later, after finishing the potato chips and shrimp crackers, the two invigilators switched to dried fruits.
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
"Quack, jump, jump..."
Chen Yu: "..."
Half an hour later, after finishing the dry fruits, the two invigilators actually brought hot water and ate instant noodles. And try hard to rub the noodles with your lips.
"Bliss!"
"Bliss!"
"呲呲呲流..."
Chen Yu wiped the soup on his face and roared: "Mr. Zha!!!"
…
"Ring ring ring ring..."
Finally, the bell signaling the end of the exam rang.
The two invigilators also finished the last snacks.
Looking at the last few unanswered questions, Chen Yu's expression was dull.
He has tried hard.
But the sounds coming from both sides of his mouth made it really difficult for him to concentrate.
"Oh, Chen Yu, that's amazing." The math teacher stood up, took the test paper, glanced at it, and nodded: "For answering so many questions correctly, it seems that the bonus is gone."
"Stop talking to me." Chen Yu covered his ears: "Any sound coming from your mouth will make me feel pain."
…
In the afternoon, at 2:30, the Chinese language test begins.
This time there were more invigilators, a total of three teachers.
One of them is Chen Yu's class teacher.
"Chen Yu, here are the papers for you."
The head teacher stepped forward, handed the exam paper to Chen Yu, and then took out a wireless microphone from his arms.
"..." Chen Yu took the test paper in a daze: "Old...teacher, what do you want to do?"
"Nothing." The head teacher knocked on the microphone and waved his hand casually: "Don't worry, take the exam well and give full play to your strength."
Five minutes later, the bell rang and the exam began.
Before Chen Yu could even start writing, a burst of "collapse" singing came from beside him.
"My motherland and I cannot be separated for a moment! No matter where we go in Nagada, we leave a hymn..."
"Lying like a bow! Standing like a pine tree! Sitting motionless without shaking like a bell, walking like a gust of wind..."
"Xinle Hua, I want to catch him back at Nasen Night Bar, no matter how sei he is..."
After the three songs were sung quickly, the head teacher took back the microphone and said with a smile: "Teacher wants to cheer you up. Now that the cheers are over, you must perform well!"
“…”
After being silent for a long time, Chen Yu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and raised his pen to answer the question, but found that his mind was completely occupied by these three "poisonous melody" songs in an infinite loop.
"Well..." Chen Yu patted his cheek hard and tried his best to concentrate.
"The first question, which one of the following items has no typos is... My motherland and I cannot..."
"The third question, fill in the blank words in the following sentences. The most appropriate one is... Lying like a bow! Standing like a pine... "
"The fifth question, in "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming", what does the author show through the description of details... Xinle flowers, I want to catch them back to Ga, in Nasen Night Bar... "
"Ahhh!!"
Chen Yu went crazy: "Stop replaying it in your head..."
