Chapter 351: The Current School Nerds Are So Arrogant?!

“No wonder, she turns out to be from Beijing University’s Physics Department.” Nodding, Jing Wen agreed with Qin Xiuchen’s statement and smiled. “I was wondering how she knew the answer was wrong without looking much at the question…”
Her voice faded as she stared at Qin Xiuchen, and her following words suddenly got stuck as she was rendered speechless.
The director holding the sign and the staff at the scene intently stared at her—
How could you say she was from Beijing University’s Physics Department so calmly?!
The place suddenly fell into a strange silence.
After a long while, Jing Wen returned to her senses and pointed at Qin Xiuchen. “Beijing University… Physics Department?”
Did all the current students in Beijing University’s Physics Department have the face of an acting student?!
“Yeah.” Qin Xiuchen turned, took his jacket from Jing Wen, and then lightly said, “She’s also this year’s undergraduate, and she just finished her college entrance examination. She just happened to study physics, so her brain is easier to use than ordinary people’s.”
The scene was full of people from the entertainment industry, and not one of them was from the physics department. After the college entrance examination, who would still remember the electric field potential difference and the orbiting speed of the geostationary satellite?
Who would have thought that the question downloaded would be wrong?
How could a wrong question have an analysis written below?
The high school physics teacher who just spoke to the director had taken a few minutes to come up with the answer. The staff on the scene felt puzzled over how quickly Qin Ran responded without even writing.
But it made sense now that he said she was a student from Beijing University’s Physics Department.
Beijing University alone was looked up to by 99% of the entertainment industry, let alone students from the Physics Department of the four major departments. This major had a reputation for high scores throughout the country. It only accepted a few students every year, and any random person inside was either a top scorer in a certain region or the second place.
It was a place full of top scorers and second places.
To do physics questions in front of her…
It was like teaching one’s grandmother to suck eggs.
“Qin Xiuchen, enough. Put away your triumphant expression!” Taking a deep breath, Jing Wen couldn’t help but steal a few more glances at Qin Ran. She really couldn’t tell.
She circled her several times.
She originally thought she was from the Arts department, but who knew she was a true scholar?
Jing Wen’s cousin also stared at her in shock.
But Bai Tiantian stood aside, trying hard to maintain her smile. When she saw her photographer involuntarily taking pictures of Qin Ran, her calm face finally couldn’t bear it.
Only a few assistant directors knew that the answer had been given to Bai Tiantian in advance, but neither the photographer nor the insiders knew.
Now that she had made such an error, everyone exchanged glances, their hearts linked as one.
Who knew that she actually copied an answer in front of the real school nerd. She was completely exposed now…
Bai Tiantian’s photographers weren’t so much in awe of her anymore.
Having noticed the gazes of the staff, she no longer had the mood to continue staying here. She lowered her head, not daring to take a step forward, her face flushed slightly, and hung her head even further when she noticed Jing Wen’s cousin staring suspiciously at her. “Let’s hurry up the mountain.”
The show had to continue recording. As for the physics question, they would do it again next episode.
The chief director couldn’t help but look for an opportunity to ask Qin Xiuchen’s manager, “Why didn’t you tell me that Film Emperor Qin’s niece was a student of Beijing University?”
If he had known, why would he have struggled for so long, and how could he have dared to pose physics questions to her??
The manager glanced at him strangely. “I was focused on worrying over her making mistakes in the show. Why would I especially inform you of such a small matter?”
The director and everyone else was speechless.
What the f*ck.
The director left in a flying rage!
**
During the show, the director’s phone suddenly rang.
“Hello?” He picked up the call. It was from his immediate boss. So, he spoke respectfully.
On the other end, the boss’s voice sounded very simple and rude. “A big boss wants to watch the show’s split-screen.”
The director was stunned. “Which big boss?”
Nothing like this had ever happened since the broadcast.
“President Jiang called specifically to order it. You just need to do it well.”
Although the boss’s words were vague, the director could tell that this big boss’s name probably couldn’t be mentioned. He quickly gave the orders to handle the matter sternly.

Over here, on the show scene.
“The program team is so conscientious this time?” Qin Xiuchen pressed his finger onto the task card, glancing at the exquisite small western-style building in front.
Because there was only one sentence on Jing Wen’s task card—
[Everyone has worked hard. Please head to the mountain villa for a good lunch.]
They originally thought it would take a long time to find the hilltop villa, but they saw it the moment they went along the mountain road. Lunch was already placed at the gate of the hilltop villa.
There was a pile of delicious food on the rectangular table.
Violin music was even playing in the hall.
They only played two songs back and forth.
Jing Wen sat at the side and waved Qin Ran over.
In the end, Jing Wen sat in the middle, while Qin Ran and Bai Tiantian sat on either side of her. Their respective partners sat opposite them.
“For some reason, I keep feeling uneasy about this meal…” Jing Wen had a good sense of variety and had been feeling puzzled about the atmosphere.
Qin Xiuchen ignored her and asked Qin Ran, “Are you eating well?”
Eating with her chopsticks, Qin Ran nodded. “Yeah.”
Jing Wen wiped her face and turned to the camera, her expression pained. “My old friend changed after having a niece and doesn’t treat me like before.”
Her cousin opposite her was taken aback. “Cousin, when did my idol not treat you like this? He used to be like this too.”
Jing Wen was speechless.
During the meal, Bai Tiantian rarely spoke, but Jing Wen would ask her questions every so often.
After eating for half an hour, all of them put down their chopsticks.
Jing Wen’s cousin looked up. “Why haven’t the program team done anything yet…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the speaker from the program group suddenly sounded: “During the time the players were eating, the villa owner returned. Unfortunately, because you ate the villa’s banquet without permission, the villa owner has now locked you inside. Players, you now have half an hour to escape from this locked room. Otherwise, you’ll receive top-level punishment. The show crew is waiting for you outside…”
As the voice faded, everyone realized the gates had already been locked.
Click—
The brightest headlights above were turned off, leaving only a few dim lights.
“Escape the room? They’re playing such a big game?” Jing Wen’s cousin said excitedly and stood up eagerly. “Then, let’s start looking for clues!”
He walked over to examine the gate, where a code lock was on it. “We’re looking for a six-digit code!”
Bai Tiantian picked up a sixth-order Rubik’s code. “Is there information here?”
Jing Wen’s eyes lit up. “Yeah. Who can play the Rubik’s cube?”
“I can’t.” Jing Wen’s cousin was looking through various drawer tables for clues. Hearing this, he quickly waved his waved. “I’ve memorized the formula for the fourth-order Rubik’s cube, but the sixth-order is for masters.”
Qin Xiuchen glanced at Qin Ran and found that she was observing a violin player.
She didn’t pay attention to their side.
“I know a little,” Bai Tiantian embarrassedly said.
Jing Wen handed her the Rubik’s cube. “Then, we’ll hand this to you.”
“Good.” Bai Tiantian immediately sat down at the table and started solving it. She probably learned how to play the Rubik’s cube before, so she quickly started turning it.
She completed the first face, and Jing Wen’s cousin stood beside her, exclaiming, “You actually know how to solve a sixth-order Rubik’s cube! That’s amazing!”
Looking up, she smiled embarrassedly. “I liked playing this as a child.”
In the split-screen outside, the director glanced at Qin Ran, who was calmly observing the structure of the room. He pressed his headset to ask the assistant director, “Are there any physics-related puzzles in the escape room?”
“Don’t worry, there are none. The six-digit passwords are in other areas.”
The director heaved a sigh of relief. Thank God there was none.
This escape room was meant to make it impossible for the guests to pass, and the wool yarn punishment was also the key focus of the show.
He just finished saying this.
Suddenly, he heard Qin Ran’s voice through the speaker. “The first number is 4.”
Because of her status as Beijing University’s school nerd, everyone in the hall now leaned towards believing her. Jing Wen immediately came over. “How did you get it?”
Putting her hand in her pocket, Qin Ran pointed to the mural on the wall. “This is the order of the planets in the solar system. According to the Babylonian system of the week, the sun, moon, water, fire, wood, and gold correspond to Sundays to Saturdays and are calculated by the rotation of the Earth. I took a look at the planet corresponding to the astronomical astrology in the picture, which happened to be the Babylonian week system’s Thursday.”
The director glanced at the staff. “She found it so easily?”
The staff weakly replied, “Director… is this easy?”
The director was speechless. Which normal person would think of the Babylonian system?
People who didn’t study geography couldn’t even recognize a few big planets, so how could they possibly figure out the corresponding planets based on astronomical phenomena??
The assistant director pressed the headset and quickly said, “Don’t worry. The last two numbers are too difficult, they won’t be able to find it. Didn’t you complain that my settings were too difficult just now?”
The director reluctantly nodded, but fortunately, the following numbers were difficult, or he would really go crazy by the artificial intelligence.
The director team was about to go crazy.
The other people in the villa also fell silent for a while, and Jing Wen blankly stared at Qin Xiuchen. “Hey, are all the current school nerds like this?”
Qin Xiuchen was also a little at a loss as he stared at Qin Ran.
Qin Ran’s voice was very calm as she looked around frowning. “Let’s continue searching. There are five more numbers.”
In the next ten minutes, a total of four numbers were found one after another.
The director team collapsed.
“Will they really find it?” The director was full of worry.
The deputy director vouched for it. “Don’t worry. She’ll never solve the last two figures!”
“What do you think this is?” Jing Wen found a piece of paper from a thick dictionary, lined with horizontal dots. She directly showed it to Qin Ran.
Qin Ran took a look. “Morse code.”
Jing Wen recognized this and said excitedly, “Is this a number?”
Qin Ran shook her head.
Jing Wen was instantly discouraged.
“But…” Qin Ran glanced at the violin music playing in a loop and thoughtfully said, “It’s probably 3.”
“3?” Jing Wen and Bai Tiantian’s teammates gathered around with Qin Xiuchen and the others. “How did you get this?”
“For these two violin pieces, the letters are represented by the numbers on the stave. According to the graphic plan, the second song that overlaps with the first song on its digits forms 256. If written in hexadecimal, it’s exactly 100, which corresponds to the Morse code’s number 3.”
The overlap between the second and first stave is the digit 256…
The hexadecimal…
Jing Wen looked up at her. “Do all school nerds… learn these things?”
Stunned, Qin Ran defended her teachers. “No, teachers don’t teach these kinds of messy things. Our teachers are very responsible.”
Jing Wen and the others were speechless.
Messy things??
The director group had fallen into complete silence, and the talkative assistant director suddenly lost his voice.
In the hall, it took Bai Tiantian fifteen minutes to finally restore the sixth-order Rubik’s cube.
The sixth-order Rubik’s cube was a relatively difficult high-order one, and the difficulty was much higher than that of the fourth- and fifth-order Rubik’s cubes.
Ordinary people never memorized the formula, so it was difficult to solve even the fourth-order Rubik’s cube.
Upon seeing this, Jing Wen’s cousin immediately came over and exclaimed, “Amazing!”
Bai Tiantian finally heaved a sigh of relief, and a layer of cold sweat rolled down her back. She unfolded the piece of paper in her hand. “This is the piece of paper that fell out after I solved it.”
She opened it and saw a capital “H.”
It wasn’t a number.
What did it mean?
Staring at the “H,” a terrible thought suddenly popped up in Jing Wen’s mind. “… The program team couldn’t have let us solve the Rubik’s cube to form an “H”, could they? Tiantian, do you know how to solve it?”
