I Sent You to Take the College Entrance Exam, and You Ended Up Solving a Murder Case?! - Chapter 2

yes!

Chen Mo silently recited in his heart.

It happened almost the instant the thought crossed my mind.

A cool sensation flowed into his head and instantly spread throughout his brain.

The previous feeling of irritability was swept away by this coolness.

He looked again at the function problem on the table.

The problem that seemed incredibly complicated and confusing just moments ago now appears clear and logical in my eyes.

Known conditions, implicit information, key points for solving the problem…

Everything appeared in his mind with unprecedented clarity.

One, two, three…

Three completely different problem-solving approaches emerged almost simultaneously.

Chen Mo subconsciously picked up the pen.

“Swish swish swish—”

The pen tip flew across the draft paper swiftly, so smoothly that it didn’t stop at all.

The thoughts that would normally take more than ten minutes to barely come to a head.

In less than three minutes, the complete solution steps and the final answer were already on the paper.

He put down his pen, looked at the near-perfect process on the paper, and his breathing became rapid.

this……

Is this the power of a system?

He turned to the next page in disbelief.

That was the final geometry problem he had tried to solve several times without success.

But now, just one glance.

The position of the auxiliary lines was clearly outlined in his mind.

Chen Mo’s heart was pounding wildly in his chest.

He knew that from this moment on, his life might undergo a dramatic change.

…

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

The agonizing college entrance examination is finally over.

Chen Mo stayed at home alone, holding a pen, checking the standard answers over and over again.

They were in the most exciting part after the exam—estimating their scores.

Chinese 115, Math 145, English 130, Science 230…

Total score: around 620 points.

This score was significantly higher than any of his previous mock exams.

Chen Mo let out a long sigh of relief, his nerves, which had been tense for so long, finally relaxed completely.

This week, he spent almost all his time immersed in books and exercises.

The effect of that “focus enhancement buff” is simply unbelievably powerful.

Knowledge points that were once obscure and difficult to understand are now easy to grasp at a glance.

Problems that used to require repeated pondering are now clear in my mind, and I can write them down with ease.

“Ring ring—”

The phone on the table suddenly rang, interrupting Chen Mo’s thoughts.

The caller ID showed it was our homeroom teacher, Ms. Zhang.

“Hello, Teacher Zhang.”

“Chen Mo! How did the exam go? The answers came out today, right? Have you estimated your score yet?”

Teacher Zhang’s concerned voice came from the other end of the phone.

“I estimate it to be around 620,” Chen Mo replied truthfully.

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by an overwhelming burst of joy.

“620! Great! That’s fantastic! Chen Mo, you’ve really made your teacher proud this time!”

Teacher Zhang’s excitement was palpable.

“With this score, you can confidently apply to any of the top universities in Beijing!”

“Your teacher recommends that you prioritize Jinghua University, as the career prospects for your major there are excellent!”

“Thank you, teacher. I will consider it carefully,” Chen Mo replied politely.

After hanging up the phone, he said he would consider it, but he already had his own ideas in mind.

Jinghua University is undoubtedly one of the top universities in China.

But what he truly longed for was not those popular finance or computer science majors.

He wanted to be a policeman.

This idea took root in his mind after the “Justice System” appeared.

“Knock knock knock”.

Just then, a sudden knocking sounded on the door.

Chen Mo was somewhat puzzled. Who could it be at this time?

He walked over and opened the door, where a middle-aged man was standing.

He was his uncle, Chen Yuejun.

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

Since his parents passed away, this uncle has only made a token appearance during holidays and festivals, and almost never visits at other times.

“Xiao Mo, are you at home? You’ve finished the college entrance exam, so your uncle came to visit you.”

As Chen Yuejun spoke, he walked into the house on his own, his eyes still looking around.

“Uncle,” Chen Mo called out casually.

Chen Yuejun plopped down in the chair, crossed his legs, and adopted the air of an elder.

“How did it go? Are you confident about the exam? What score did you estimate?” He finally got to the point.

“Around 620,” Chen Mo said calmly.

“Six…six hundred and twenty?!”

Chen Yuejun’s eyes widened instantly, his tone changed, and his surprise was undisguised.

He suddenly stood up from his chair, grabbed Chen Mo’s arm, and his face turned bright red with excitement.

“Really? 620? My God! Our Chen family is going to produce a top scholar!”

Chen Mo withdrew his arm without making a sound.

Sure enough, that’s why he came.

Chen Yuejun excitedly rubbed his hands together, paced back and forth, and muttered to himself.

After a moment, he stopped, looked at Chen Mo with a serious expression, and said in an unquestionable tone:

“Xiao Mo, your uncle has something important to tell you. With your score, you really need to fill out your college application carefully!”

“I’ve made up my mind, you should apply to our local teachers’ college!”

Chen Mo: “…”

Normal University?

He doubted he had heard correctly.

With a score of 620, can I apply to a local second-tier normal university?

Seeing Chen Mo’s surprised expression, Chen Yuejun thought he hadn’t understood his “good intentions,” and quickly explained:

“Let me finish! Teacher’s college is great!”

“You’ll be directly assigned to a teaching position after graduation—a secure job!”

“It’s close to home, so if your cousin needs anything in the future, you can help him out.”

“Besides, I’ve inquired, and the school definitely offers various subsidies for your situation. A stable and secure life, isn’t that great!”

Upon hearing the words “helping out his cousin,” Chen Mo felt a chill run through him.

He understood everything.

This guy wants to tie himself down to the local area and be his son’s free tutor and ATM for life.

“Uncle, I want to go to Beijing.” Chen Mo refused directly.

Chen Yuejun’s face immediately darkened.

“Go to Beijing? That’s so far! You won’t know anyone there, who will take care of you as a child?”

“Besides, have you thought about how much it costs in a big city like Beijing?”

He started by appealing to emotions, speaking earnestly and earnestly.

“Xiao Mo, your parents passed away early, and your elder uncle is like a father to you. Would I ever harm you?”

“I’m your only family member, you have to listen to me!”

Chen Mo almost laughed out of anger.

Over the years, the person who truly took care of him was his neighbor, Uncle Da Chuan. But where is this “only relative” now?

“I can make my own decisions,” Chen Mo said firmly.

Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Chen Yuejun’s patience ran out.

The fake smile on his face vanished completely, revealing a ferocious expression.

“Fine! You think you’re all grown up now, huh!”

His eyes darted around, and he thought of another way.

“You can go to Peking University if you want! I won’t stop you. But university costs money, right?”

“As an orphan, you meet the highest criteria for applying for a student grant; that amount of money is substantial!”

Chen Yuejun leaned closer, lowered his voice, and looked shrewd.

“Once you get the scholarship approved, take it out and give me half.”

“You’re young, it’s not safe for you to carry so much money. Your uncle will keep it for you for now.”

Chen Mo’s anger flared up instantly.

Looking at the ugly face before him, he spoke clearly, word by word:

“Are you keeping it for me, or are you taking it to buy your son the latest phone?”

“Or perhaps, it’s to pay back the money you lost playing cards last time?”

The air froze instantly.

Chen Yuejun’s expression froze, turning from astonishment to rage.

“You… what nonsense are you spouting!” he roared, his voice trembling with fear.

“Whether I’m lying or not, you know in your heart.”

Chen Mo looked at him coldly, “I won’t give you a single penny of my money. And you don’t need to worry about my affairs anymore.”

“This is outrageous! This is utterly outrageous!”

Chen Yuejun was so angry that he trembled all over and pointed at Chen Mo’s nose, cursing loudly.

“I was just trying to be nice to you, and you call me that? You ingrate! You’re such an ingrate!”

“Fine! Chen Mo, you just wait! Don’t expect me to take care of you again! If you’re so capable, then don’t come back begging me!”

He uttered harsh words, slammed the door shut, and stormed off.

The room finally returned to silence.
