Beyond The Outline

"Now we can see that the contestants from Linjiang Sixth Middle School have entered the arena, let us welcome them with warm applause!" Not only is the stadium set up with a stage, but there are commentary seats not far from the stage, "... everyone Alright, I'm Lao Ye, the commentator from Linjiang Sixth Middle School."

Because the audience is far away and cannot see clearly, and it takes a long time to solve the problems during the game, in order to improve the enthusiasm of the audience, the league will find two teachers to give live commentary every year.

Lao Ye is a mathematics teacher in the third year of high school and one of the outstanding teachers in Linjiang Sixth Middle School. Sitting next to him is Director Yang from Yinghua Experimental Middle School.

Director Yang nodded slightly: "Hello everyone, I am Lao Yang from Yinghua Experimental Middle School."

The audience entered the arena ahead of time, and the auditorium on the first and second floors had already been filled. In the stands on the second floor, a large number of students were lying on the railings.Seeing "Shao Zhan" come on stage, they all screamed: "Ahhhhhhh!"

"Xueshen is also very handsome today, Xueshen, come on!"

"Student God Consecutive Champion!"

"Leave the champion in Linjiang!"

Linjiang was the first to enter the arena, and this year is Linjiang's home stadium again, and the audience's emotions reached their peak.

Although Xu Sheng was nervous, perhaps it was Shao Zhan's actions or words that had an effect just now. He was not so nervous when he was extremely nervous. Not only was he not nervous, but he also tried to find some excuses for Shao Zhan.

Xu Sheng lazily walked at the back, with one hand in his pocket, changing his usual "Shao Zhan" aloof and unkind, he walked out of the slightly dark passage bit by bit, as if it wasn't the light shining on him, but It was as if the light and shadow were following him inch by inch. When he completely appeared in the public eye, the cheers were even louder, and he raised his head.

Then Xu Sheng faced the auditorium, squinted his eyes and raised his hands, his knuckles stretched, and he made a "shooting" movement towards them. He was so crazy that he couldn't suppress the wanton flamboyant traits of the young man.

"Ah—" The voice from the auditorium completely overwhelmed the commentator in one fell swoop.

"Why didn't I realize that Xue Shen was so arrogant before?"

"Sisters, I'm gone, I'm hit."

"..."

Shao Zhan: "..."

Shao Zhan lowered his voice and asked him, "You're not afraid that you won't be able to close the show."

"I'm afraid," Xu Sheng said, hanging his hands down, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I can't lose no matter what kind of momentum I lose."

Xu Sheng curled his lips into a smile, and said, "Besides, I think you're right, why are you nervous, isn't there still you?"

A god of learning is enough to blow up, let alone a school bully playing with a god of learning.

Although the school bully's participation in the league has been widely spread on the post bar, it is still shocking to witness it with your own eyes. At the end of the team, among a group of students in school uniforms, the black T-shirts are eye-catching.

The school bully has a cold face—no one has confidence in this master's strength, but it is undeniable that this master's role in controlling the scene is really unique.

It directly raised the momentum of their Linjiang No. [-] middle school competition team.

Narrator Lao Ye: "Hey, students in Linjiang, please be quiet and maintain order..." Lao Ye raised his voice and said, "The next ones to enter the arena are the contestants from Yinghua Experimental Middle School!"

Finally it was his school's turn, and Lao Yang took the words: "Yinghua Experimental Middle School takes patriotism as its school motto. Yinghua's contestants bravely climb the peak without fear of danger. Let us look forward to their wonderful performance today."

With that said, Yinghua's contestants lined up in a long line, and a team of six people came out from the entrance channel.

The classmate headed by him was tall and stood out from the crowd from a distance.

When Yinghua appeared on the stage, the audience reacted fiercely. Yinghua's students stood up and shouted "Brother Duan is invincible". Last year's loss made them particularly optimistic about this game this year, and they will wait until today's snowfall shame.

"Our Brother Duan is invincible!"

"Duan Yaosheng, brother Duan will win!"

The leader was Duan Yaosheng, who had left his name on the post bar of Linjiang No. [-] Middle School. He stepped straight onto the stage without squinting.

After sitting down, his eyes never moved away from "Shao Zhan".

Xu Sheng felt the hot eyes: "..." He stared at the wrong brother.

Until Xu Sheng turned his head and asked Shao Zhan, "Is this your opponent from last year?"

How could Shao Zhan remember these insignificant people: "I have no memory, maybe."

It was only then that Duan Yaosheng noticed that there was an unfamiliar face among the participating teams of Linjiang No. [-] Middle School this year, who seemed to be very familiar with his opponent Shao Zhan, so it was difficult for him to pay attention to him.My brain was spinning at high speed: Who is this person?A freshman in high school? I haven't seen him last year. Why doesn't he wear a school uniform? Is he a ruthless character?

Knowing oneself and knowing one another can win a hundred battles.

Duan Yaosheng raised his chin and asked the classmates around him: "Does any of you know him, the one without school uniform?"

The classmates shook their heads one after another: "I don't know, it seems that there was no such person last year, freshman?"

Afterwards, students from Songye and Xingjian schools also entered the arena one after another.

There were four long tables on the stage. In the first half of the team competition, six people from each school sat around their respective long tables.

It was Xu Sheng's first time participating in this kind of competition, and he seemed a little stiff among the students who were sitting upright.

The referee pinched the points and began to distribute the draft paper.

All the contestants held pens and pressed paper, ready to go.

This is a real battle for dominance.

Linjiang, Yinghua, Songye, Xingjian.

Which of these four schools is said to be a key school with sufficient weight.

If it wasn't for Xu Sheng's bad luck in the high school entrance examination, with a heart that vowed to get into Liyang No. [-] Middle School, his head was hanging from the beam and his buttocks were pierced, and he barely made it to Linjiang's score line after crazy tutoring and extraordinary performance.

If he was asked to take the exam again, he might not be so lucky to be admitted to Linjiang.

There is an inexplicable atmosphere among the students of the four schools, and the battle for the top student is imminent.

Under this kind of deterrence, he, a pure student scum who made trouble in troubled waters, was still a little flustered.

Narrator Lao Ye: "Next, we will enter the team competition. The rules of the team competition include scoring points for quick answers. The school that rings the bell first will answer the questions first. Ten points will be awarded for correct answers, and ten points will be deducted for wrong answers. I hope that players will think carefully before answering the questions. If you make a mistake, you will suffer the consequences of deducting points.”

This team competition looks easy and there are teammates, but the mechanism of deducting points for wrong answers is also a training for all players. Even if you calculate the answer as quickly as possible, can you guarantee that your answer will be correct?

Even if there is a tenth of a second of hesitation and hesitation, the opponent will seize the opportunity.

The white wall closest to the stage showed a giant screen projection, a piece of fluorescent blue.

The two commentators said in unison: "Everyone, get ready, please look at the first question."

As soon as the words fell, two lines of words immediately appeared on the fluorescent blue white wall.

Question 3: As shown in the figure, it is an incomplete 3X[-] magic square. The sum of the three numbers in each row, column and each diagonal of this magic square has the same value, then the value of X is ___.

There is a 3X3 table next to the title.

The first column is empty, 4015, 2014, the second column is 4017, X-2003, 9, and the third column is 2012, 11, X.

The first question is like the first gunshot on the field!

Everyone picked up their pens and began to write quickly.

Compared with the usual regular league questions, this question is really not a big problem. It is just an appetizer, but it will take some time to solve it, and the rush to answer is precisely the time.

"The atmosphere in the arena is quite tense now, and it can be said that it is a race against time," said the commentator Lao Ye. We can see that everyone is now—”

Teacher Ye wanted to say that everyone was racing against time, and he didn't know who would ring the bell for the first time.

But he couldn't go on.

The reason why I couldn't continue was that there was a person on the field who didn't even hold a pen.

So he changed his words temporarily: "We can see that Shao Zhan, student of Linjiang No. [-] Middle School, he, he didn't move." Why didn't he move? !

The students in the auditorium also noticed this phenomenon, and the commentator deliberately called their names, which caused an uproar in the audience.

"What happened to Xue Shen?"

"Why can't the god of learning solve problems?"

Xu Sheng also wanted to solve the problem, but he couldn't understand the problem.

What the hell is a magic square? !

What do these tables mean?

Where is the problem-solving idea?

What's more, the league is different from writing classwork in normal times. The draft paper has to be collected at the end, and the referee keeps going around in front of the players at the four tables. If he bites the bullet and scribbles on the paper, it will be difficult to explain to the referee.

In order not to cause trouble for Shao Zhan, the best way at present is to not move.

But the posture should still be calm, despise everything, and exude the aura that this question is simply too simple.

Time was running out, and Shao Zhan didn't have time to worry about Xu Sheng's sitting still. He sat next to Xu Sheng, doing calculations with his pen.

When Shao Zhan was solving the problem, he looked very calm, even colder than usual. He lowered his eyes, and even though he was wearing Xu Sheng's clothes, he revealed an aura that was contrary to him.

Duan Yaosheng is indeed a strong opponent. The No. 1 in Yinghua grade is not blown out. One year has passed, and he is stronger than last year. He and Shao Zhan put down their pens one after the other——

The commentator Lao Yang was so excited that he could not contain himself: "Yinghua's Duan Yaosheng looked up! He put down his pen, has he already solved the answer?! Will he be the first player to ring the bell?"

"Ding."

the bell rings.

But the person who rang the bell was not Duan Yaosheng, nor Song Ye and Xing Jian's contestants, but Linjiang Sixth Middle School.

The enthusiasm of the audience in the commentary was revived, and the atmosphere was once again ignited: "I will go, I am a student!"

"The god of learning has rang the bell!"

"I said that there must be no problem with Xue Shen. Although he didn't take a pen just now, he must have figured it out in his heart."

Duan Yaosheng listened to the ringing of the bell in disbelief. He thought that no one could beat him at this speed, but unexpectedly, it was still two seconds slower.

Everyone's attention was attracted by "Shao Zhan". No one noticed that "Xu Sheng" put down the pen faster than him. After "Xu Sheng" put down the pen, he even had time to tap twice on the table with his fingers , this is the secret signal negotiated between him and Xu Sheng: "Ring the bell."

Xu Sheng was also quick to start, he immediately pressed the answer button in front of him.

Narrator Lao Ye: "Student Shao Zhan from Linjiang Sixth Middle School is the first to ring the bell, please answer within ten seconds."

As long as Xu Sheng turned his head slightly, he could see the numbers Shao Zhan circled on the draft paper.

Xu Sheng: "4016."

The audience fell into silence, and no one in the audience knew whether the answer was right or not, and waited for the referee to issue an order with a sigh of relief.

Two seconds later, the referee raised his card.

Narrator: "Yes, Linjiang Sixth Middle School, plus ten points."

First kill.

The ten points scored by "Shao Zhan" not only aroused cheers from the audience, but also made several school leaders of Linjiang No. [-] Middle School smile.

Director Gu couldn't help walking around with his hands behind his back since the first question appeared on the screen. At this moment, he clenched his hands into fists and punched them forward, shouting: "Good job! Beautiful! !"

As expected of Shao Zhan!It is indeed their hope of winning the championship of Linjiang No. [-] Middle School!

However, his voice was quickly drowned out by the layers of sound waves coming from the audience behind him.

And Xu Sheng was stunned by this too easy victory.

Even though he had heard countless legends of Shao Zhan before the competition, he also knew that Shao Zhan was a hanger last year, and it was only through personal experience that he really tasted the word "hanger".

Xu Sheng: "First question, did we win?"

Shao Zhan's expression didn't fluctuate: "Yes."

Xu Sheng: "So simple?"

Shao Zhan let go of the pen, and the pen fell back to the paper: "This question is not difficult."

What Shao Zhan said was not difficult, but it was difficult for Xu Sheng to understand.

But Xu Sheng vaguely saw last year's big devil in the league through his body.

Gee.

Xu Shengxin said, why is my deskmate so powerful.

The first kill of "Shao Zhan" made the opponent's mentality very broken. There is no other reason. Players who can ring the bell in advance, you are not angry.

Anyone would have to collapse.

Duan Yaosheng sat on the seat without saying a word.

His teammates patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, Brother Duan, this is the first question. We all saw it just now. You were the first to put down the pen. We can definitely do the next question."

Narrator: "Please look at the second question."

Cut to the next page from the content on the projection, and enter the second question.

The second question is a multiple-choice question with an image of a function.

Xu Sheng continued what he did in the last round: stand still.

Supported by the victory of the first question, this time his posture was more casual and natural, his body was no longer stiff, he leaned back casually, and twirled a pen in his hand.

When Duan Yaosheng was solving the problem, he looked up at the four options halfway, and accidentally met "Shao Zhan" on the opposite side.

Xu Sheng even smiled at him.

Duan Yaosheng's forehead twitched: "..."

Who is he provoking?

"This question is more difficult than the previous one. I estimate that the time to solve this question will be slightly longer than the previous one. Linjiang No. [-] Middle School...well, student Shao Zhan still didn't write," said Linjiang No. [-] Middle School student The commentator Lao Ye really didn't know how to explain this contestant, so he finally bit the bullet and said, "Student Shao Zhan didn't write a single word on the draft paper for two consecutive questions. It's worth his pen."

The students who came to the gymnasium to watch the game did not expect that this four-school league will be more entertaining than last year.

Xueshen alone has filled the field of game viewing.

Duan Yaosheng lowered his head again and solved the last step as quickly as possible. Shao Zhan put down his pen and tapped on the table again.

Xu Sheng, who had been playing with his pen the whole time, directly raised his hand and rang the bell.

Duan Yaosheng: "..."

Other Yinghua players: "..."

Songye and Xingjian contestants: "..."

The mentality of the narrator from Yinghua Experimental Middle School also became unstable.

So the important task was handed over to the commentator Lao Ye again: "For the second question, the contestants from Linjiang No. [-] Middle School should be the first to ring the bell. Please answer the question within ten seconds."

After Xu Sheng rang the bell, he looked at the draft paper in Shao Zhan's hand, but he didn't see any circled options on it.

Xu Sheng asked, "What's the answer?"

Shao Zhan was not in a hurry, he raised his eyes to look at him, and said in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "Stretch out your hand."

Xu Sheng: "?"

Shao Zhan: "Don't you want to know the answer?"

Xu Sheng didn't know why, so the referee repeated "please answer the six middle school players" in front of him. He didn't have time to think about what Shao Zhan wanted to do, so he stretched out his hand under the long table.

Perhaps to increase the sense of ceremony of the game, the long table was covered with a layer of reddish-brown flannelette brought from the auditorium. The long flannelette hung down, and small movements under the long table would not attract attention.

Xu Sheng was standing, unable to lower his head to look, so any slight movement would be infinitely magnified. He felt the back of his hand rubbing against the flannel, and the flannel shook slightly, making it itchy.

The next second—

There was something slightly warm against the palm of his hand.

Then there was a tactile sensation that was more itchy than flannelette, extending from the palm to the fingertips, and then flowing back along the fingertips - the last itching seemed to scratch into the heart.

It was Shao Zhan who wrote an "A" on his palm.

The referee waited for a while. Seeing that the ten seconds had passed halfway, he reminded him one last time: "Please enter the Sixth Middle School..."

"A," Xu Sheng said, "I choose A."

"Is it A?" said the referee.

Is it right to choose A?

Although Xu Sheng couldn't even understand the question, he didn't doubt the answer Shao Zhan wrote in his hand.

The referee intentionally paused for two seconds before raising his card: "Congratulations for the correct answer."

"—Add ten points to Linjiang No. [-] Middle School."

After the referee finished speaking, Gu Yan Wang jumped up from his seat!

"From our school," Gu Yanwang was overjoyed, and he couldn't help showing off, regardless of which teachers were sitting next to him, "This is Shao Zhan from our school. The best students in the school are outstanding."

"Remember, you should have an impression. Last year, our classmate Shao Zhan won the championship."

The leader of Yinghua Experimental School, who was caught by Gu Yanwang and listened to him showing off, was livid: "..."

Shao Zhan in the team competition was like hanging up.

There were ten questions in total, and he scored the next half by himself.

It wasn't until the sixth question that Yinghua's people got the chance. Duan Yaosheng rang the bell early with a one-second error and grabbed ten points.

After that, Xingjian and Songye also seized the opportunity and each scored ten points.

The team competition lasts a total of one and a half hours.

In the end, Linjiang scored 50 points, Yinghua scored 30 points, Songye scored 10 points, and Xingjian scored 10 points to end the first half of the team competition.

As Xu Sheng was the tool for ringing the bell, he couldn't remember how many points Linjiang won.

Anyway, when Shao Zhan knocked on the table, he pressed it immediately.

I just remember that Shao Zhan started not to write the answers on paper, but wrote them in his palm.

The gymnasium is empty and the momentum is huge.

The crowds are crowded and the summer heat is constantly transpiring.

The boy's warm fingertips seemed to be on fire.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, amidst the voices of thousands of people, the hidden little movements under the flannelette became a secret exclusive to two people.
