Qin Ke returned to the city on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. He first cleaned the green Mathematical Olympiad special training room and prepared some final sprint questions.

On the fifth day of the new year, Ning Qingyun officially returned to class, and Qin Ke conducted a two-day final consolidation sprint training for Ning Qingyun.

On the seventh day of the lunar month, that is, February 7, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun got into Lao Zheng's car and arrived at the airport. Then they met Professor Shi Cunyuan of the Huahai Provincial Organizing Committee and the other four contestants he brought with him.

Meet up and fly straight to the capital together.

The drama of this National Mathematical Olympiad has officially begun!

On the plane, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun got to know each other for the first time with their teammates participating in the national competition.

It seems that most of them are acquaintances.

The third place in the provincial competition, Li Xiangxue from Zhuhe No. 1 Middle School, is an old acquaintance with Qin Ke. Even during the Spring Festival, he often "harassed" Qin Ke for advice on Mathematical Olympiad questions, and took the initiative to pay his "consulting fee" every week

The settlement is clear, which can be regarded as giving Qin Ke a relatively stable and easy part-time money-making opportunity.

Qin Ke was a little surprised that Li Xiangxue could represent Huahai Province in the national competition this time.

Li Xiangxue is of course very capable, but he has a rather stubborn personality. When doing questions, he will only start from the first question. If he cannot solve it, he will be stuck there and will never move on to other questions.

With Li Xiangxue's "obsessive-compulsive disorder", if the first question in the national competition is a very difficult question, it will basically end with a zero score. God knows if the people in the Huahai Provincial Organizing Committee think that they can try their luck and expect Li Xiangxue to become a dark horse.

?After all, if he performs stably, Li Xiangxue can truly be ranked third in the Huahai Provincial Mathematical Olympiad.

Of course, Qin Ke himself likes Li Xiaozi very much. Li Xiaozi is generous and straightforward, and he is not ashamed to ask questions. When they go to the national competition together, they can have many chatting partners.

The other two contestants are Chen Hanyin and Hong Xingwei from Chengkong Private High School.

Last year, both of them only won the consolation bronze medal in the national competition, and this time they were qualified to compete in the national competition again. They have no personal grudges with Qin Ke. On the contrary, Qin Ke once severely defeated the hateful ghost in their school.

Quan Wenyan made them have a good impression of Qin Ke, but most of them kept a distance from each other. After greeting each other, they didn't talk much.

The sixth contestant is also a well-known super academic, Chen Ting from the Experimental Middle School Affiliated to Yuanzhou Normal University, who placed third in the final joint examination.

This is a boy with an outstanding personality. He is not ugly, with mung bean eyes, a flat nose, and a hedgehog hairstyle that is obviously gelled. He looks a bit middle-class.

When he saw Qin Ke, he laughed loudly and hugged him: "You are Qin Ke, right? It's amazing. It's just that the results in the provincial Mathematical Olympiad are far behind me. Even the joint competition I am most proud of

The total score in the exam was also surpassed by you. It’s amazing.”

As he spoke, he looked at Ning Qingyun enthusiastically: "Wow, this beauty, you must be Ning Qingyun. I have admired her name for a long time and have been friends with her for a long time. Let's exchange WeChat messages and have a meal and watch a movie together when we have time?"

Ning Qingyun took two steps back and stared at him coldly with her cold eyes, expressionless. That kind of indifference made Chen Ting feel embarrassed. He scratched the back of his head and laughed dryly: "Just kidding.

It's just a joke. The 'Flower of the High Mountain' in Sakura Garden sounds a bit cold, so I'm just kidding."

Ning Qingyun still didn't speak, and didn't even say hello to him. She was obviously a little disgusted with this kind of behavior of striking up a conversation when they met.

Qin Ke, who usually helped smooth things over at this time, smiled and said nothing, leaving Chen Ting embarrassed.

Hehe, are you kidding? He struck up a conversation with his own little cabbage when they met. Qin Ke didn't give him any trouble, so he was very broad-minded, right?

In the end, Shi Cunyuan got over it: "Okay, you guys have now gotten to know each other, go back to your seats."

Ning Qingyun's seat was originally the second one, with Chen Ting on the left and Qin Ke by the window on the right.

Ning Qingyun glanced at the ticket in Qin Ke's hand and stretched out her little hand. Qin Ke offered it with both hands in a very shameless manner. Ning Qingyun couldn't help but curl up the corner of her mouth when she saw his funny expression, but she would not smile in front of others.

He came out, waved his beautiful ponytail proudly, and sat on his seat.

After the girl with a single ponytail sat down, Qin Ke sat next to her.

Chen Ting also sat next to Qin Ke. He smiled bitterly and said, "Am I disliked?"

Qin Ke "comforted" you thoughtfully: "Don't worry, it's not that I hate you. At least I will remember you if I hate you. You are just completely ignored."

"Holy shit, Qin Ke, you are stabbing a knife into my heart."

Qin Ke shrugged, looking like he was whispering furtively, and whispered: "You already know that she is the 'Flower of the High Mountains', but if you still dare to mess with her, aren't you asking for trouble?"

Chen Ting couldn't help but leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Is Ning Qingyun like this at school?"

"Yes, she has always been like this, unkind, iceberg-like, and overbearing. No one dares to mess with her. Almost all boys are scared when they see her. You see, I don't want her to steal my ticket.

If you dare to say anything, you can only change seats with her honestly."

"I didn't expect... Ning Qingyun is such a powerful girl."

Qin Ke lowered his voice again and said mysteriously: "But, Ning Qingyun has a secret..."

Chen Ting immediately became interested: "What secret?"

"As long as you say to her the mantra 'No. 1 in the world by the school committee', she will enter a state of trance and do whatever you ask her to do."

Chen Ting looked at Qin Ke with suspicion. Although he said nothing, he obviously didn't believe it.

Qin Ke looked aggrieved when he told the truth and was questioned: "You don't believe it? I'll try it for you!"

He turned his head, stretched out his hand to Ning Qingyun, drew two circles in front of her eyes, and then whispered: "The best in the world in the academic committee! Smile!"

Ning Qingyun couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Chen Ting was immediately dazzled by Ning Qingyun's beautiful smile. Oh my god, doesn't Ning Qingyun look so pretty when she smiles? And Qin Ke actually made this extremely cold Ning Qingyun laugh easily?

Under his incredible gaze, Qin Ke stretched out his hand: "Come here, school committee member, help me wipe my hands, they're a little dirty."

Ning Qingyun rolled her eyes at him, but obediently took out a wet tissue from her bag and wiped his hands clean.

Chen Ting's eyes almost fell out of his eyes. Is this the same Ning Qingyun who was so cold and indifferent just now?

Qin Ke said again: "I want to eat chewing gum."

Ning Qingyun obediently took out another bottle of chewing gum and poured one into his hand.

Qin Ke threw the chewing gum into his mouth, then smiled and said to Chen Ting: "This spell is effective."

Chen Ting was a little in disbelief, but he still stretched out his hand and said tentatively: "The academic committee is the best in the world! Please give me a piece of chewing gum!"

Ning Qingyun glanced at him with an idiot look, then turned around and put away the chewing gum, and said to Qin Ke: "Have you had enough? It's so fun to play with idiots?"

"Normally interesting, generally interesting."

Only then did Chen Ting realize that he had been tricked by Qin Ke, but he did not dare to get angry and quickly shut up angrily.

He must be blind. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are clearly a couple. It would be strange if he chats up a girl in front of her boyfriend and doesn't get teased!

Next to them, Chen Hanyin and Hong Xingwei were secretly gloating that this Chen Ting actually dared to provoke Ning Qingyun. It was so embarrassing... Don't you know that the famous genius Quan Wenyan was made into a fool by Qin Ke just because he coveted Ning Qingyun?

A useless person?

At this time, the plane entered a stable flight period, and Shi Cunyuan came over and started giving the usual instructions.

"You are all the top Mathematical Olympiad students representing our Huahai Province in the national competition. In the next few days, we will help each other..."

"Let me explain the rules of this national competition again. Although you should all know it well, I still have to repeat it one last time."

"This national competition does not have preliminaries, it is directly a formal competition. The total score of the paper is 300 points, each question is 20 points, and the number of questions is 15, which is three times that of the previous competition."

"The questions are not sorted by difficulty, but are sorted randomly. This is the same as the provincial and municipal competitions. The time limit for the exam is three hours, and the papers can be handed in after one and a half hours. But this time I am afraid that no one will be able to hand in the papers in advance. Ten

The five difficult questions of the national competition must not be underestimated, let alone careless. Sometimes, if you make a little miscalculation, even if the steps are correct later, you will not be given points..."

"The national competition will start at 9 a.m. on February 10, the day after tomorrow, and will last until 12 noon. There are 152 candidates nationwide participating in this national competition. The top 10% will be ranked according to the total score.

That is, 15 people are gold medal winners, the top 30 people from 10% to 30% are silver medalists, and the rest are bronze medalists. In other words, if you want to get real awards, you have to work hard to become the top 30% of candidates..."

Qin Ke suddenly raised his hand and asked: "Professor Shi, I have a question."

"you say."

"In a province like ours where there are only six candidates, will the students be scattered to various examination rooms, not the same examination room?"

"Yes. Why do you ask this..."
