Chapter 975: Chapter 975: What Makes Her So Special
Teacher Sutton couldn’t even spare a glance at Willow Grant’s expression, and said happily, "Summer Monroe, your perfect scores in all four subjects and the top rank in the prep class are well-deserved!"
However—
"Wait a moment!"
Mio Osborne spoke as if waking from a dream, "She hasn’t solved the last question yet!"
Teacher Sutton frowned, even forgetting to address Mio Osborne as a teacher.
"Mio Osborne, what nonsense are you talking about? The answer to the last question is correct, how can you say she hasn’t solved it?"
Mio Osborne clenched his fist and said, "I hadn’t finished explaining the rules of the last question earlier. The last question requires three methods of solving it. Missing one, and the question isn’t considered solved."
"That’s simply making things difficult!" Teacher Sutton said coldly, "In front of everyone, do you have to do this?"
Mio Osborne sneered, "What do you mean by ’have to do this’? My question card clearly states that it requires three methods to solve. Didn’t you see it?"
Teacher Sutton was taken aback and quickly looked at the question card.
It indeed said "requires three methods of solving" on it.
Teacher Sutton’s frown deepened instantly.
"Why didn’t you mention this earlier?"
Mio Osborne was speechless because he hadn’t expected Summer Monroe to finish the first question so quickly.
No, all three questions.
"Ahem!" Mio Osborne gave a dry cough and opted not to answer Teacher Sutton, directly addressing Summer Monroe, "You heard it too, the last question requires three methods of solving it. Only if you solve it using three methods can I be sure you didn’t cheat on this exam."
Others thought the difficulty lay in the first two questions, but in fact, the last question was the hardest. He had racked his brains for over a month without coming up with a third method; Summer Monroe absolutely couldn’t solve it.
Summer Monroe pursed her lips, a cold gleam in her eyes.
Just when Mio Osborne thought Summer Monroe might lose her temper and curse him, she suddenly stepped forward and said to Victor Ford beside her, "Please make way."
Victor Ford immediately jumped up, putting both his feet on the chair.
The other students followed suit, all crossing their legs, creating a spacious path for Summer Monroe.
Willow Grant watched Summer Monroe easily step out from the narrow seating area, her eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.
The prep class students were giving Summer Monroe too much face, treating her like a deity even when she was suspected of cheating.
On what grounds?!
Willow Grant bit her lower lip hard, praying fervently in her heart for Summer Monroe to be unable to solve the problem using three methods.
Nearby students whispered, "Three methods... Does this question really have three methods? I’ve only managed to think of one method so far, and I haven’t finished calculating."
"I’ve finished the calculations, but I can’t think of a second method."
Hearing this, Willow Grant couldn’t help but recall the previous question, and began working on it on her phone.
Halfway through the question, she realized she could only solve it with one method.
Surely, Summer Monroe won’t be able to solve it using three methods?
Just as this thought emerged, Summer Monroe had already walked onto the stage.
She ignored Mio Osborne, took the chalk handed by Teacher Sutton, and turned to face the small blackboard.
A camera focused closely on the blackboard so all the students could clearly see Summer Monroe’s process.
Summer Monroe picked up the chalk and began writing out steps at a rapid pace, seemingly without needing to think.
In less than a minute, the first solving method was clearly written out on the blackboard.
