Chapter 1317: Public Disgrace
Xiang Liwen gave the right answer.
Then, it was Z’s turn to test R.
It was Nuannuan’s turn to come up with the question. Since the 300 cl.u.s.ters had formed a solid pattern in her memory, she knew which pattern looked simple but was easy to get wrong. Therefore, she chose this particular one. Most importantly, it was the pattern that Kitano Satos.h.i.+ was ‘responsible’ for memorizing.
“Number 22,” Nangong Nuannuan announced.
The malice in Kitano Satos.h.i.+’s eyes nearly took form. He was sure that this woman did it on purpose—she would do anything to make him embarra.s.s himself in public.
However, in front of the camera, no matter how many vicious underhanded moves he could come up with, there was nothing he could do.
What should he do?
At this moment, Kitano Satos.h.i.+ was overwhelmed with anxiety, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only give a random answer using whatever impression he had left of this question.
When Staff No. 22 unlocked her screen, the audience was dumbstruck.
The difference between these two answers was too great.
The host quickly helped Kitano Satos.h.i.+ out of the situation, implying that the mistake was just an outlier. After all, everyone claimed that Kitano Satos.h.i.+ had the best memory among them.
Since Kitano Satos.h.i.+ failed to answer, Z scored.
Next, it was time for R’s side to come up with the next question. Originally, it was Xia Anchen’s turn to answer, but Xia Anchen was obviously not in his best today, so he was rather hesitant.
After asking Nuannuan, Nuannuan nodded to reaffirm his answer. Only then did he announce the answer officially.
After verifying it, Z’s answer was correct.
After pa.s.sing the questions around back and forth, Z answered two questions but obtained three marks.
The host did not know that the questions were already leaked out through other channels. Initially, this compet.i.tion was meant to be Kitano Satos.h.i.+’s solo show as he gained absolute control over the partic.i.p.ants of two countries. Therefore, when it was time for the R team to answer the question, the host hyped up Kitano Satos.h.i.+ once more.
After all, he had a good memory. After all, he was someone who was supposed to bring glory to Yamato.
When it was Z’s turn to ask once more, Nangong Nuannuan took a look at the scoreboard and said, “Let’s go with No. 1.”
That no-brainer question translated to giving her opponent a free win!
Kitano Satos.h.i.+ was responsible for memorizing the first 200 questions. As long as it was the first 200 questions, that was where his responsibility lied.
Therefore, picking a question randomly was not enough to destroy Kitano Satos.h.i.+’s arrogance. To embarra.s.s Kitano Satos.h.i.+ for real, she must ask the questions in order.
Kitano Satos.h.i.+ nearly died of anger by Nangong Nuannuan’s hands.
This woman was definitely doing this on purpose.
Fortunately, he vaguely remembered the pattern drawn by Stafff No.1. Therefore, Kitano Satos.h.i.+ marked out the answer almost as soon as Nangong Nuannuan finished speaking.
Nuannuan blinked and thought to herself, ‘d.a.m.nit, this idiot actually memorized a few.”
However, after Kitano Satos.h.i.+ drew the pattern, Nuannuan was relieved.
Staff No.1 went on stage and unlocked the screen in front of everyone. Although the answer was similar to Kitano Satos.h.i.+’s, Kitano Satos.h.i.+ was still wrong.
Z gained another point.
After that, on Z’s side, some students failed to memorize a few of them, so the last two questions were answered by Nuannuan. But on R’s side, it was a tragedy. They got all the questions wrong.
Most importantly, everyone could tell that the students on Z team had been going easy on Kitano Satos.h.i.+, and still, he could not answer any of them.
Finally, at the final question, another student happened to remember the answer, so he helped Kitano Satos.h.i.+ answer instead.
Eventually, all thanks to Kitano Satos.h.i.+, the Z team scored 9 points in the memorizing session. Added up with their previous 46 points, they scored a total of 55 points. The students on the R team only scored 45 points, making them the loser by 10 points.
