Three days later, Evelyn knew her final results.
Out of the 150 marks on the comprehensive test paper, she got a delightful 113 points. According to her usual practice, this could be regarded as a superb performance.
Since Scroll went to the Longsong Area with His Majesty to check the work, it was sister Vendy who informed her of the results. She also specially patted Evelyn on the shoulder and encouraged her with a smile, "Good answer. Her Highness Tilly will be very happy to know this. Keep it up."
"I will continue to work hard!" Evelyn nodded vigorously and turned back to find Candle. "How many points did you get?"
"91 points, I finally passed," Candle said with a smile. "Looking at your happy expression, you must have done very well, right?"
"Yes!" She couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth. "113!"
"Really? This score is probably close to that of Lucia and the others! "Candle said in surprise," Do you want me to ask for you? "
"No, they must have done better." Evelyn waved her hand. "I only need to know Maggie's score."
Perhaps the next target could be Lily or Lucia, she thought to herself. Her ability was indeed very poor, but it was inborn and she couldn't change it. Learning required hard work to make progress, and even an ordinary person could become charming. She didn't want to lose to anyone.
She also wanted to be as knowledgeable and talented as His Majesty.
After class, Evelyn found Maggie, but the other's answer made her unable to believe her ears. "Coo coo coo — I got 117 points coo!"
How could this be?
She was stunned and didn't come back to her senses until a long time after Maggie left.
"How is this possible? Did Scroll calculate her results wrongly? " For a moment, Evelyn thought she heard her own voice. She blinked her eyes and found that the one who spoke was Mystery Moon, who happened to hear it and was also puzzled.
"What's impossible?" Lily rolled her eyes at her. "Don't doubt others just because you did poorly, okay?"
"But I was sitting right in front of her," Mystery Moon argued. "When I collected the papers, I saw that she had drawn honey jerky on a large blank space."
"Are you sure?" Lily frowned.
"I guarantee it with my electromagnetic power!"
"Ha... that's not convincing at all." She shrugged and turned to leave, but Mystery Moon pulled her back.
"Wait, I'm telling the truth! Why don't we investigate it? "
"Not interested." Lily curled her lips. "If you really find it strange, you can ask Scroll when she comes back."
"If that's the case, then there's no point in exploring." Mystery Moon looked as if she was eager to see the world in chaos. "Evelyn, let us help you find out the truth!"
"Don't count me in!"
"What happened?" Candlelight also came up to them.
Evelyn hesitated for a moment before she confessed her confusion.
"Well... if you want to investigate, how should I do it?" Candle touched Evelyn's head. "Teacher Scroll will probably be gone for several days, right?"
"Now that His Majesty and Nightingale are not here, I won't let you sneak into the office." Lily glared at Mystery Moon. "Don't think I don't know what you want to do."
"Steal the papers? I'm not that stupid. "Mystery Moon wagged her finger." I just need to find the place where Scroll reads the papers. "
"You mean..." Candle's eyes lit up.
"Just ask Summer," she said, smirking.
Evelyn immediately understood Mystery Moon's plan. If Summer played back the illusion of Scroll grading Maggie, they could indeed find the answer to the question. "But... Teacher Scroll usually reads the papers in City hall. Isn't it inappropriate for us to go there?"
"What's wrong with that? Everyone in Neverwinter can come and go freely. Of course, we can also go there, "Mystery Moon shouted." It's not His Majesty's office, so someone doesn't have to worry about it. "
"I have to remind you," Lily was unmoved. "Ordinary people can only enter the lobby of City hall. The office of the Ministry of Education is on the second floor. Do you think those officials will let us go there at will?"
"Uh, this..." Mystery Moon was suddenly at a loss for words.
"If it doesn't work, then forget it." Evelyn wanted to retreat. She didn't want to cause trouble for everyone. "I'll wait a few more days."
"No, I have a way that might solve it." Candle touched her chin and said.
…
Candle's method was very simple. She just wanted to bring Nana along. According to her, since she had already called Summer, it didn't matter if she brought one more.
And it turned out that this method was indeed effective.
Evelyn was stunned by Nana Pine's popularity. The next day, as soon as she entered the City hall, she was warmly greeted by everyone and no one stopped her from going anywhere. Perhaps because the image of the little angel was too deeply rooted in people's hearts, or because her father was a noble personally rewarded by His Majesty, she was quite famous in the Border Area. In short, they entered the office of the Ministry of Education effortlessly.
The room was empty.
Few teachers would come here unless there was a meeting.
"We're in!" Mystery Moon said excitedly, "Hurry up and start backtracking!"
"Is this... really okay?" Summer said a little uneasily, "This is a place that only officials can come."
"Officials are not rare. Hummingbird is the deputy minister of the Ministry of Construction." Mystery Moon patted her chest. "Don't worry. As long as we don't tell anyone, Scroll definitely won't mind us coming to her office."
"If the truth is that you're lying, I promise I'll tell Scroll." Lily snorted coldly.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't come?"
"Ahem... I, I'm here to keep an eye on you to prevent you from making a big mistake, understand?"
Looking at the two arguing, Evelyn suddenly felt that her decision might have been a mistake.
In the end, it was Candle who persuaded Summer. When the illusion appeared in the office, everyone held their breath.
It was obvious that Scroll's marking time was between the end of the exam and the day she went to Longsong Academy. She quickly found the scene with the help of the fast playback.
Everyone squeezed behind "Scroll" at the same time.
As long as the time was not too long, Summer could maintain the illusion for half an hour. After a while, Evelyn saw Maggie's paper.
"See, I didn't lie!" Mystery Moon shouted.
"..." Lily could not help but frown.
There was indeed a large blank space on the paper. Except for the relatively easy fill-in-the-blank questions and question-and-answer questions, there was almost no word written on the latter part of the paper that involved calculation. Moreover, there were pictures of barbecued meat under some of the questions. Even "Scroll" could not help but shake her head.
Obviously, this answer paper could not have scored 117 points.
