Chapter 138
[Scenario Question: Suppose you are the owner of a steamed bun shop. You are in your shop making meat buns when you discover you are missing one piece of meat. Just then, a rude Player barges into your shop and demands a meat bun from you. What should you do?]
Yun Youyou propped up her chin and thought for a moment.
“Give the Player a bun without any meat filling.”
[The Player then rudely throws the steamed bun on the floor and demands, “Why doesn’t this bun have any filling?”]
[Question: What should you do next?]
Yun Youyou: “I would answer, ‘Because this bun is thick-skinned, just like you.'”
“…….”
The entire space fell silent.
The test paper’s Evaluator once again used an invisible red pen to draw a huge X over the second listening question.
Yun Youyou was not happy.
“Why did you give me another huge X?”
The test paper’s Evaluator: [The correct answer is to use the Player who barged in as the meat filling. That is what an NPC should do.]
Yun Youyou argued with absolute conviction, “If you eat someone with such poor manners, you’ll only turn into a ghost with poor manners.”
“Ghosts in the new era must possess extremely high professional ethics and moral standards!”
The test paper’s Evaluator pretended not to hear her.
[Staff No. 003, please continue answering the questions.]
Yun Youyou had no choice but to keep reading.
The second major section was math, with each question worth twenty points.
Just seeing the word “math” made Yun Youyou’s head start to ache.
Who would have thought that even after becoming a ghost, she still couldn’t escape the terror of being ruled by math?
Question 1: Ghost Granny is 50 km away from Xiaoming’s house. She walks toward Xiaoming’s house at a speed of 10 km per minute. Xiaoming is afraid Ghost Granny will be mesmerized by his good looks, so he rides on his pet dog, Xiaobai.
It is known that Xiaobai’s speed is 15 km per minute, but after every ten minutes of traveling, Xiaobai needs to stop for five minutes to eat dog food.
How long will it take Ghost Granny to catch up to Xiaoming?
Yun Youyou: ……
Was Ghost Granny a rocket in her previous life? How could she run that fast?
[Thirty seconds remaining. Twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-seven, twenty-six…]
You never said there was a time limit!
There was definitely no time to calculate it now.
Yun Youyou could only write down the answer she believed was correct as fast as possible.
Answer: I believe Ghost Granny will not catch up to Xiaoming.
Because Xiaoming is too narcissistic. As a greasy person, oil will drip from his body onto the ground. When Xiaobai’s paws step on it, he will slide forward, thereby increasing his speed.
The test paper’s Evaluator was speechless.
[Beep! Incorrect answer!]
Yun Youyou: “What was wrong?”
The test paper’s Evaluator would never admit that she hadn’t calculated it either.
That stiff voice sounded again.
[Please look at the next question.]
Yun Youyou snickered. “Hehe. Don’t tell me you couldn’t calculate it either?”
The test paper’s Evaluator pretended not to hear her.
The second question was another extremely classic math problem.
Vampire Xiaohong is very hungry. At this moment, she discovers a patient on an operating table receiving a blood transfusion. It is known that the patient’s transfusion rate is 10 ml per minute, while Xiaohong’s blood-sucking speed is 20 ml per minute. How long will it take for the patient’s blood to be sucked dry?
Yun Youyou was brimming with confidence.
“I know this one! The patient’s blood won’t be sucked dry, because a Vampire is vegetarian.”
[Beep! Incorrect answer!]
The test paper’s Evaluator let out a cold laugh. [You truly are foolish. How could a Vampire possibly be vegetarian?]
Yun Youyou: “But I really do know a vegetarian Vampire. Besides, your question didn’t say whether Xiaohong is vegetarian or not!”
[Impossible! There is no such thing as a vegetarian Vampire in this world!]
Yun Youyou said, “Then do you dare make a bet with me?”
[Hmph. A bet is a bet. Who’s afraid of you?]
“What happens if you lose?”
[If I lose, I’ll do whatever you tell me to do.]
“Deal! It’s settled!”
“But I have to finish this test paper first.”
Yun Youyou continued reading through the test and discovered that the final question was a self-evaluation prompt.
Please discuss your views and understanding of yourself.
Answer: I am a perfect ghost.
Yun Youyou wrote it down without the slightest hesitation.
[Test paper completed. Now entering the scoring phase.]
The test paper before Yun Youyou’s eyes vanished, replaced by a loading symbol.
[Your score has been calculated. Your final score is five points!]
Yun Youyou patted her chest.
“Thank goodness. I thought it would be zero.”
[Looks like you have a rather clear understanding of yourself. Those five points are pity points.]
Yun Youyou didn’t care whether they were pity points or anything else.
“Does our bet from earlier still count?”
[Of course.]
Yun Youyou opened her Light Brain, found the Vampire’s profile picture, and started a video call with him.
A few seconds later, the call was answered on the other end.
The screen shook a few times, gradually going from dark to bright. It seemed the person on the other side had turned on the lights.
“Youyou, you finally came to me.”
The Vampire’s low, husky voice came through the video.
He seemed to have been sleeping in a coffin. His deep eyes still held a trace of newly awakened confusion.
Yun Youyou smiled sheepishly.
“Sorry. Did I disturb your sleep?”
The Vampire stared straight into the camera. “It’s all right. I don’t consider this a disturbance.”
When he put it like that, Yun Youyou felt even more embarrassed.
“Actually, I’m not calling about anything important. I just wanted to ask you a few questions.”
The Vampire nodded calmly.
“Of course. Go ahead.”
Yun Youyou cleared her throat.
“You’re a Vampire, right?”
The Vampire revealed his sharp fangs. “This is the symbol of my identity as a Vampire.”
Yun Youyou asked, “And you’re vegetarian, right?”
The Vampire replied, “That’s right. This is also part of my cultivation.”
Yun Youyou sincerely expressed her thanks to the Vampire, then hung up the call.
“Hahahahaha… Well? There really is a vegetarian Vampire in this world!”
Yun Youyou crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows smugly.
[Fine. You win this time.]
The Evaluator actually admitted defeat so quickly.
Yun Youyou found it a little strange.
[So what do you want me to do?]
Yun Youyou said, “Simple. Change my exam score to one hundred.”
Without the slightest hesitation, the Evaluator said, [Sure.]
Why had she suddenly become so easy to talk to?
Sure enough, the score on the test paper changed from five points to one hundred.
Before Yun Youyou could figure out why the Evaluator had suddenly become so accommodating, she heard the Evaluator speak again.
[Could you… give me that Vampire’s number?]
The voice that had always been cold now sounded a little coy.
So she had taken a fancy to the Vampire.
“Sorry, but that’s a ghost’s private information. I think you should ask him yourself. I’ll be going now.”
