My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing

Chapter 44 Are You the Devil? (Part 1)



December 5.

The national college entrance exam organized by the civilian educational system officially began.

After confirming via phone that his overweight neighbor had indeed taken part in the exam, Chen Yu felt relieved, sat down at his computer desk, and started looking up local news and updates about the exam in the capital.

Soon, within the Capital's forums, he saw a post about a "Transcendent" flamboyantly entering the examination hall to take the exam.

Through a few pictures from the scene, Chen Yu immediately recognized that show-off.

Surrounded by security.

Escorted by the police.

Exempt from inspection and checks.

Under the adoration of numerous media and exam supervisors, he cut in front of all other students' queues and "proudly" vanished behind the main door...

Clearly, it wouldn't take long before the explosive news that a "Transcendent deigned to partake in the national exam" would spread throughout Jiangnan.

"This kid, truly wins my heart."

Seeing the massive impact his overweight neighbor had made, Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Having such a prodigy, what more could a father want?

Exhaling a relaxed breath, Chen Yu leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and scanned through various single-player and online games.

Ultimately, he opened a turn-based game and casually clicked into a new server, starting a pleasant two-day life.

He was getting older.

Only entertainment products like Fantasy Westward Journey, which weren't grindy, didn't require spending, emphasized social interactions, lacked a competitive edge, and had good teaming options, suited him.

...

Time.

As the name suggests, it was like the remaining balance in an internet café, swiftly used up within a few hours.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

The national exams across various provinces all concluded.

As expected by Chen Yu, the news that the overweight neighbor, a Transcendent, had participated in a civilian exam rocked the entirety of the internet.

These past two days, pop-up notifications constantly bombarded the bottom right corner of his computer and the top of his phone, annoying him greatly.

"Snap."

He stood up, didn't care about the teammates he was forming up within the game, shut down the computer's power, stretched lazily, and walked into the bathroom to brush his teeth and rinse his mouth.

The national exam was over.

As one who hadn't participated in the exam, he, a self-proclaimed "Top National Scholar," also needed to take action.

"Creak—"

Pushing open the security door, Chen Yu put on his hat and quickly "thudded thudded thudded" downstairs, waiting a little on the roadside before hailing a taxi.

Sitting in the cab, he waved his hands authoritatively, "To Capital Aerospace University. The back entrance."

He had inquired beforehand through his neighbor's butler.

This year, all the exam papers from the northern part of the capital were sent to Capital Aerospace University for grading.

The person in charge was a leader from the education sector, Professor Sun.

Married.

A beautiful and young wife, 38 years old who liked yoga, fitness, and afternoon tea, with a mole on her left chest. Weighs fifty-one point three kilograms, one hundred sixty-seven centimeters tall.

Her routine includes leaving home at 10 AM to head to Rain Lotus Beauty Salon, shopping at Xicheng Supermarket at 11 AM, and afternoon activities at 2 PM…

Social Security number 21202219…

Opening the smartphone memo, Chen Yu scanned through all information about Professor Sun once more, took a deep breath, and adjusted his sitting posture.

The victorious, never battle unprepared...

...

An hour later.

Capital Aerospace University, temporary expert group office.

"Knock knock knock knock—"

A series of knocks sounded.

Professor Sun, who was reviewing documents at his desk, looked up and took a sip from the tea cup on his desk, "Come in."

"Team leader." A fully armed paramilitary officer walked in, standing straight without a smile, "Someone outside wants to see you."

"No visitors." Professor Sun looked down, continuing with the documents, "As per regulations, before all section A papers are graded and transferred, no one from the group is to have external contact."

"But the person outside is labeled as the 'Top National Scholar.'"

"Top National Scholar?!" Professor Sun snapped his head up, "The results haven't come out yet, where did the top scholar come from?! Last year's?"

"Unsure." The paramilitary officer remained expressionless.

Putting down the documents, Professor Sun squinted his eyes, "...let him in."

"Yes." The paramilitary officer nodded sharply and left.

Before long.

Chen Yu sauntered in nonchalantly and politely tapped on the open door, "Professor Sun? Hello?"

"Come in, close the door."

"Sure."

After closing the office door, Chen Yu looked up at the surveillance camera inside the office, walked to the opposite side of the desk, and sat down.

"Let me see your title," Professor Sun went straight to the point.

Without beating around the bush, Chen Yu took off his hat, revealing his "Top National Scholar" title.

Professor Sun put on his reading glasses, scrutinizing the title on Chen Yu's head for a long while, furrowing his brows, "Are you a student from the capital's district?"

"No."

"It's not possible for the scores from other provinces to come out so quickly, is it?"

"That's not important." Chen Yu put on his hat, "It's a preemptive title. You should be familiar with this term, right?"

"Preemptive... title…" Professor Sun was astonished, quickly stood up, walked around the desk, and orbited Chen Yu twice, his eyes brightening, "No wonder… no wonder. The 'Top National Scholar' title, which usually doesn't carry over past the second year, puzzled me. So, you're this year's. Congratulations, young man. You have a promising future."

"I'm not here to talk about this." Chen Yu pulled out his phone, took out a photo, and showed it to him, "Recognize this fat man?"

"This is…" Professor Sun leaned forward, "Is this the Transcendent who took the exam this year?"

"Good eyesight."

"This gentleman has been quite popular recently."

"Good. Since you know him, there's no need for further explanations." Chen Yu put away his phone and smiled, "If you hadn't let me in today, I was planning on pulling some strings to get inside."

"...what do you want with me?" Professor Sun, sensing something amiss, regained his stern demeanor.

"This fat man, while indeed a Transcendent, is also my friend. He asked me to do something for him."

"Oh, so you're a friend of the Transcendent. Professor Sun began to sweat from his temples, "But I'm just a mere examiner, how can I help with something related to a Transcendent?"

"It's within your official capacity, you can definitely help." Chen Yu stood up, startling him with a revelation, "Change his score."

"!!!" Professor Sun's pupils dilated sharply.

"Nothing excessive, just a perfect score will do."

"Ugh!"

Professor Sun's face turned red, he stumbled back two steps in shock...
