Chapter 364: Three Ups and Downs

ons. Then, they happily returned to Hongqi Commune.Three days later, the hunting squad finally returned from the mountains. However, the atmosphere was strange. They carried their prey straight to Cap...Red Flag Commune has been buzzing with excitement lately. Every time the postman arrives, everyone asks if there are any university admission letters. And they have been receiving good news one after another.

The countryside point is the place that postal workers go to most. Qian Jian Guo, Zhang Qiang, Sun Sheng, Wang Xiu Fen, and Zheng Xin all received acceptance letters in sequence. They all got into their first choice of school.

Five people were beaming with joy, their smiles never fading. They had all returned to their home cities after passing the exam, a truly triumphant homecoming.

In the Hongqi Commune, two children were selected for higher education. One passed the local university entrance exam and brought honor to the family. The other didn't pass but showed determination by preparing to review for another year and take the exam again next year. The villagers all supported his decision.

Zhao Fengshou was even more impressive as he walked, with the wind at his back. He had great face in front of the other communes.

Liàn Yī also received her admission letter, from Suzhou Normal University. This was a last-minute decision Liàn Yī made before taking the exam, because Shí Jù told her that the original owner wanted to come back and spend the rest of her life, get married, have children, and be with her parents.

"Did she give up on reincarnation"

Ripples asked directly.

Well, since this lifetime allows us to fulfill our wishes, why wait for the next Besides, you've already redeemed her tragic fate; she's definitely capable of facing whatever comes next.

"Alright! I believe after all this, she'll learn her lesson. When am I leaving"

The ripples asked directly.

She wanted to wait until she got back to Suzhou.

She doesn't want to face Zhao Jingcheng

"There's a little bit!"

"It's a shame I found her that little faithful dog, and it was well-trained too! Doesn't she even consider that"

She didn't refuse, but she didn't nod either. Everything was up to the original owner's will.

"Okay! I was originally planning on applying to Peking University, but it's good that you reminded me in time."

Lian Yi applied to Soochow Normal University, following her original personality. She aims to become a teacher in the future, enjoying summer and winter vacations, with increasing social status and job security. Teaching is a promising profession.

And Zhao Jingcheng reported that he was from the Department of Politics at Capital University. He wanted to become a state civil servant and return to Northeast China in the future to build his hometown.

When Zhao Jingcheng learned that the two weren't going to the same university, he was silent for a long time, until Lianyi received her acceptance letter. His hadn't arrived yet, and instead of being sad, he felt less so.

But Lianyi felt something was amiss, because according to Zhao Jingcheng's estimated score, he shouldn't have failed the exam.

Liàn Yī and Zhào Jǐngchéng went to town and looked for Zhāng Quán, asking him to help inquire about the admission score line for the Department of Politics at Capital University.

When she learned that the cutoff score was even 15 points lower than Zhao Jingcheng's estimate, Ripples immediately realized something was wrong. She pulled Zhao Jingcheng to check the scores, but the examination office reported a very low score and comforted them that they didn't pass this time, there would be next time.

Ripple insisted on reviewing the exam papers, saying that everyone they studied with had passed university entrance exams. It made no sense for him to be the only one who failed. They estimated their scores to be very different from the ones they found out, a difference of over 10%. This kind of deviation is unusual, so there must be something wrong.

The applicants also realized the problem and could only appease them by saying that they would immediately retrieve the exam papers after consulting with higher authorities.

But Lian Yi didn't believe them. After all, the person who could do such a thing must be an insider; otherwise, no one could have switched the exam papers and test information. She directly pulled Zhao Jingcheng to find Zhang Quan.

"Zhang Gong'an, I think the admission notice from Capital University has definitely been sent out, but the person who received it is not Zhao Jingcheng. Can we check this with Capital University"

I don't believe the people who applied here. Zhao Jingcheng won't pass this year, but he will definitely keep taking it next year. The person replacing him will definitely make sure he doesn't get into any school to avoid getting caught. This is a very serious matter.

"Okay, I'll ask around. I have some comrades in Beijing."

Zhang Quandao didn't refuse. Over the past year, the two families have been getting along like relatives. The Zhao family has sent over a lot of meat which his whole family has enjoyed. Although he also gave them money and ration coupons, with the current situation, even with money and coupons, you can't buy meat. So, he had to return the favor, besides, it was just a small gesture.

Zhang Quan called Guo Tao long distance, briefly explained the situation, and told him Zhao Jingcheng's information, asking him to check it out, and told him that the ginseng he received over a year ago was found by this couple.

Guo Tao heard this, his original nonchalant attitude immediately changed:

"Quan Zi, rest assured, I'll go there myself. If things get done, I'll need your help then."

"Okay, I'll wait for your call."

Three days later, Zhang Quan received a call from Guo Tao. His face immediately darkened, he hung up the phone, and went straight to the office of the leader at the bureau, telling him what had happened.

“Let Zhao Jingcheng report the case, so we can get involved. Otherwise, we'll be acting unfairly and going against our principles. This is the first college entrance exam, and there are many people being watched. At this time, any favoritism or cheating would be like courting death for someone as old as Shou Xing. We can also add a stroke to our achievements at the station.”

The chief was a shrewd man and immediately caught on to the trick. He directly ordered Zhang Quan,

Yes, chief, I'll tell Zhao Jingcheng right away.

Zhao Jingcheng and Lian Yi came to hear the news Zhang Quan had brought back. Zhao Jingcheng was still a little confused, while Lian Yi had an expression of "I told you so." For the sake of profit, some people are willing to take risks.

“My old comrade-in-arms personally checked on the situation at Capital University. His grandfather is a high-ranking official, so they wouldn't fob him off there, and the information is definitely accurate. Zhao Jingcheng not only got accepted, but he was also one of the first students to receive an acceptance letter from Capital University.”

“Zhang Gong'an, thank you! Also, on behalf of my son Jingcheng, thank your old comrade-in-arms. This is a matter that affects the rest of our lives. Otherwise, we would be kept in the dark forever. The person who took Jingcheng’s place could go to university with flying colors, while Jingcheng didn't even have the chance to leave here.”

Waves of thanks ripple outward.

"This matter is very serious. It's best you get your admission notices back through legitimate means. There are old comrades of mine keeping an eye on things at Capital University, and they're investigating everyone who applied through this channel."

Zhang Quan hinted at something.

"Zhang Gong'an, we know what to do!"

After Lianyi finished speaking, she pulled Zhao Jingcheng, who was still dazed, to the admissions office. She didn't even go inside, just stood at the door, rolled up her sleeves, and started shouting. She claimed that the teachers at the admissions office were corrupt and colluded to replace her husband's exam papers, swapping his good grades for someone else's, and even claiming his acceptance letter under a false name.

This immediately drew a crowd, as the topic of the college entrance exam is still quite sensitive. Some people even expressed their doubts about their own scores, and for a while, the admissions office became the target of everyone's frustration.sked."Hahaha! Of course! You don't even look at the level of our Wolf Pack, we are high-level players. All five of us have S-level combat power. It's your fortune to be looked upon by us. If you wait...
