Last-Minute Cramming and a Hardcore Study Camp

Zhou Yu's words fell lightly.

Sigelica's sanity completely crumbled.

Sigelica: (ꐦÒwÓ)

She gripped the edge of the plate.

The knuckles are raised and whitish.

Why should I have to pay for it again?

Zhou Yu pulled a thermos of goji berries out of his pocket.

"Because your scholarship is the most secure."

He blew away the steam rising from the water.

"When the team's funds are running low, you are the best risk hedging tool."

Linnai let go of Dania's leg and got up.

Linnai:(°◇°;)

Are you praising her?

Sigelica's chest heaved with anger.

She couldn't even find a point to refute it.

Dania swallowed the last bite of the egg tart.

She tugged at Zhou Yu's sleeve and shook it.

"Xiao Yu, stop bullying Xixi."

Zhou Yu raised his wrist to check his watch.

"This isn't bullying, it's pre-battle mobilization."

He glanced at the group of people, whose faces were filled with dejection.

There are 72 hours left until the midterm exams.

He tapped on the plastic dining table.

"Let's go back to the dorm and set up a test preparation command center. I'll be the advisor."

"Don't just lie there, get running!"

Half an hour later.

Sigelica's dormitory was completely requisitioned.

Zhou Yu sat imposingly at the only desk.

Dania moved a small stool and sat upright next to his legs.

The other three could only huddle cross-legged on the carpet.

Zhou Yu grabbed a piece of white paper and slammed it on the table.

A three-color review framework diagram was marked on the paper.

"I just tricked Moning, and his cognitive model is currently in a state of stress."

He pointed to the area circled in red with his fingertip.

"Chapters 3 and 7 of the empathy theory will definitely be on the exam with major questions."

Dania bit her lip, trying to decipher the incomprehensible text.

"Then how should I memorize it?"

Zhou Yu took a White Rabbit milk candy out of her canvas bag and placed it next to her notebook.

"Memorize this page, and the candy is yours."

He turned his head and patted his shoulder.

"If you finish this test paper and get over 90% correct, you can rest your head on my shoulder for ten minutes."

Dania's eyes widened instantly.

She grabbed a book and went into battle mode.

Dania:(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

The words in the book all turned into shapes of tripe and duck blood.

The screams from the carpet shattered the peace.

Linnai rolled around on the floor, clutching a history book thicker than a brick.

Linnai:_(´ཀ`" ∠)_

"Whoever wants to read this lousy book can take it."

She buried her face in the carpet fibers.

"Why were these emperors' names so long? Did they encounter some kind of garbled text when naming them at birth?"

Chisaki pushed up her black-rimmed glasses.

That still-weak, childlike voice came over.

"Relax, Linnai, next I'll use a deep learning language model to help you build a memory palace."

She pulled a flashing metronome from her pocket.

"Stare at the pendulum and imagine your cerebral cortex is reorganizing."

"Drip, tap, drip, tap."

The snoring was loud.

A long line of drool appeared at the corner of Linnai's mouth.

Aimis snatched the metronome and threw it under the bed.

She grabbed Linnai by the collar and lifted her up.

Aimis:(ฅ`ω´ฅ)

"This is called physical hypnosis, and you call this tutoring?"

She forcibly shoved a pair of headphones onto Linnai's head.

"Memorization should be done using the melody memorization method."

The deep bass rap rhythm leaked out of the headphones.

"Yo, check it out. Listen to me, there aren't that many history questions."

"The first king of the Huanglong Era was named Blazing Sun King."

He had three wives and five sons vying for the throne.

The eldest brother likes to play in the mud, while the second brother is obsessed with the alchemy cauldron.

Sigelica, standing in the corner, was wearing industrial-grade noise-canceling earplugs.

She gritted her teeth as she copied down the practical theories.

The pen tip pierced a large hole in the draft paper.

On the right, a heartless worker uses candy to deceive an innocent young girl.

The science nerd on the left rings a bell to put the child to sleep.

A motorcycle gang member, wearing headphones, raps cheap rap.

This is hardly the tense preparation for an exam.

This is clearly a group of people in a mental hospital ward being given a chance to relax.

My scholarship is definitely going to be completely wasted.

Sigelica:( TДT)

The 72 hours of high pressure passed in the blink of an eye.

Early morning on exam day.

The Slacking Squad stood outside the exam hall, all sporting the same dark circles under their eyes.

Only Dania's complexion was rosy and radiant.

She not only ate the whole bag of milk candy, but also rubbed herself against the pillow for over a hundred minutes.

Linnai's eyes were blank.

She was doing street dance steps.

His mouth was full of nonsensical rhyming words.

Zhou Yu placed the peeled tea egg in Dania's palm.

"Relax and keep a calm mindset."

He casually smoothed down her unruly curls.

"Think about our ultimate goal."

Dania clenched her fists tightly.

"Let's go get some tripe and meatballs after the exam."

Zhou Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Sigelica stared at the ink stains on her exam admission ticket.

She had even run out of energy to sigh.

"Are you really not going into the exam room to help?"

Zhou Yu unscrewed the thermos and took a sip of tea.

"I am a staff member of the Logistics Department."

He pointed to Moning, who was pacing back and forth in the examination room.

"If I just swagger in, it would be considered disrupting the normal teaching order."

He waved to the four girls, signaling them to leave.

Zhou Yu:(´_ゝ`)

"Wishing you all a triumphant return."

He stared at Sigelica's face and emphasized his pronunciation.

"I am proud to have passed Sig."

Sigelica almost tripped and fell on the threshold because she had put her shoe on the wrong side.

The bell rang.

The girls entered the examination hall, each with their own thoughts.

Zhou Yu leaned against the frosted glass window of the corridor.

The sunlight slanted across the windowsill.

He pulled out his worn-out electronic terminal.

A group photo taken in the cafeteria three days ago popped up on the screen.

Three girls posed for a photo around a telephone pole.

After examining it for a while, he clicked to set it as his screensaver.

Then a new document was created.

Fingers flew across the keyboard.

[Draft Notice Regarding the Midterm Exam Reward Hot Pot Menu and Team Building Budget Reimbursement]

He stared at the final total amount and filled in Sigelica's name in the settlement column.
