Chapter 17

“The show is on.” I supported my chin with one hand, looking interested.
“Hmph, just as well. I, Lin Hai, can finally vent my anger! Since they’re so arrogant normally, I’ll teach them how to behave now!”
Lin Hai began to sort out the documents.
Fortunately, there was a backup of the file, and it was clearly marked who researched what. Even if Luo Yan and Shen Tao were furious and wanted to take credit, there was nothing they could do.
Half an hour later, Lin Hai and I, who had finished sorting out all the materials, appeared outside the teacher’s office. After knocking on the door and receiving permission to enter, Lin Hai and I looked at each other and strode forward.
As soon as we entered the office, we could see Luo Yan and Shen Tao in the corner, looking smug. They looked at me and Lin Hai with eyes full of pride, as if victory was already in their hands. They didn’t know that they were just clowns now.
“Director Na, Teacher.” Lin Hai and I ignored them and walked straight to the area in front of the desk.
Because it involved an award-winning thesis, the teachers attached great importance to this matter. Now, in the office, apart from Director Na, there was also our form teacher, Teacher Xu.
“Don’t be nervous,” The director was as gentle as ever. She maintained a faint smile and said, “I called you here to ask if Luo Yan and Shen Tao contributed to the research and publication of the thesis.”
“Yes, the director is right. Don’t be nervous and answer truthfully.” Teacher Xu consoled me and Lin Hai.
“Director Na, Teacher Xu, they’re just trying to ostracize us. They’re using our results and throwing them away after using them. You don’t have to ask them!” Luo Yan couldn’t help but interrupt impatiently.
Both Director Na and Teacher Xu frowned when they heard this. Wasn’t Luo Yan’s behavior stupid?
As expected, Mr. Xu’s tone turned a little impatient. “We can’t just listen to you and Shen Tao’s side of the story. We can’t just wrong Lin Luo and Lin Hai.”
“Now, shut up,” The director said. “Teacher Xu and I will definitely give you an accurate answer and a fair conclusion.”
After they finished speaking, Luo Yan didn’t dare to make any more noise and could only shut her mouth.
When Luo Yan stopped, I put the USB and the files on the teacher’s desk.
“Teacher, the USB drive has the files from my research and my thesis.”
After I finished speaking, Lin Hai explained, “Luo Yan and Shen Tao did participate in the research. But they didn’t contribute much. They left the research group halfway through, and we stopped using their research results.”
After Lin Hai and I explained, the director and Teacher Xu nodded in satisfaction. I guess they believed me and Lin Hai.
However, in order to give a fair result, the director called Luo Yan and Shen Tao over. Under the gaze of all of us, they opened the USB.
Lin Hai had carefully noted all the documents in the USB drive: Who wrote it? When did it happen? However, most of the documents had the following remarks: searched and organized by Lin Hai.
After searching and filtering the documents prepared by Luo Yan and Shen Tao, they could only find five or six documents.
Lin Hai was able to organize a mountain of documents in a whole semester, but Luo Yan and Shen Tao were able to simplify their workload to such an extent. It could be seen that they were really proud, confident, and useless.
I saw Director Na and Teacher Xu’s mouth twitch at the same time. They probably thought it was ridiculous too.
“We’ll only check the documents compiled by Luo Yan and Shen Tao to see if there are any overlaps with the paper. Do you agree?” They said in a fair manner.
“I agree! Of course I agree!”
“Me, me too!”
Luo Yan and Shen Tao said impatiently. Lin Hai and I weren’t as anxious as they were, so we just nodded. In contrast, they appeared to be more impetuous.
Director Na opened the folder and my thesis, using a split screen. The remaining documents of Luo Yan and Shen Tao had pitifully little content.
It was very convenient for Director Na and teacher Xu to do a check. They first finished reading Luo Yan and Shen Tao’s research documents and then started to read my paper, trying to find overlapping parts.
However, I knew that they wouldn’t be able to find any overlapping parts.
Because the quality of Luo Yan and Shen Tao’s documents was really bad, I deleted all of them. In the thesis, apart from Lin Hai’s documents, the rest was my original content.
“Truly formidable.”
“To be able to write such a research paper and understand HIV so well, he’s a talent.”
When director Na and Teacher Xu read my thesis, they couldn’t help but sigh. Luo Yan and Shen Tao mistakenly thought that they were complimenting the documents they had completed.
“Director Na, teacher Xu, thank you for your praise,” Luo Yan said as she looked up.
“Don’t worry, I will continue to work hard. However, I hope that Shen Tao and I will be at the front of the school’s noticeboard. After all, we contributed the most.”
“Also, I want Lin Luo and Lin Hai to apologize to me!”
“I also agree with Luo Yan’s idea. In addition, we need to split the bonus evenly.” Shen Tao added, “Also, I hope Lin Luo and Lin Hai can make a public apology to us. If we didn’t dare to find a teacher, wouldn’t we have to disappear?”
“…”
After Luo Yan and Shen Tao finished talking, the office fell into a long silence. Director Na and Teacher Xu looked at each other, speechless.
As for me, I feel embarrassed for Luo Yan and Shen Tao. If they knew the truth, would they be so embarrassed that they would want to live on another planet?
“…I don’t want to say this, but who gave you the confidence?”
After a long while, Teacher Xu opened his mouth to speak, his eyes flashing with disdain.
“What?” Luo Yan’s smile froze on her face. She didn’t manage her expression well, and for a moment, her expression was a little mean. “Of course it’s because we have the ability that we have the confidence.”
“Teacher, stop teasing me and Shen Tao. Hurry up and announce the results.”
Teacher Xu shook his head helplessly and said, “The result is that the HIV Research Group’s thesis has nothing to do with your documents.”
“Yes.” Director Na’s tone was calm, and she was obviously a little speechless. “Stop showing unnecessary confidence. I’ve seen the documents you’ve organized, and the content is obviously the most shallow, but full of loopholes. I really can’t read it.”
“On the contrary,” Teacher Xu said, “Lin Luo’s and Lin Hai’s papers are the ones that are the most eye-catching.”
After they finished, Luo Yan and Shen Tao were speechless.
The office was originally quiet, but why do I feel like there’s a sound of faces being slapped?
“How is that possible?” Before Luo Yan could say anything, Shen Tao started to get excited, “The documents we organize are the best! Director Na, teacher Xu, did you guys take bribes?”
Suddenly, the office fell into silence again. Director Na and Teacher Xu looked at Shen Tao with sharp eyes.
After Shen Tao reacted, he waved his hand and wanted to refute, “No, I-I didn’t mean… That’s not what I meant.”
Before he could finish, Teacher Xu said, “Shen Tao, what do you think? How can you say such things?”
“You really… I’m so disappointed.”
“The show is on.” I supported my chin with one hand, looking interested.
“Hmph, just as well. I, Lin Hai, can finally vent my anger! Since they’re so arrogant normally, I’ll teach them how to behave now!”
Lin Hai began to sort out the documents.
