"Is this D?"

"It is D."

"Why do I feel it's A?"

"It looks like A, but it's actually D; you have to feel it, you can't just rely on your eyes."

In the narrow room, Zhai Da frowned and stretched out a hand.

On the multiple-choice question on the test paper, he still wrote down a D.

"No, just like this is useless, I have to understand, explain it to me again."

Lu Wei took the water pen from Zhai Da's hand, leaned forward, and patiently explained to Zhai Da.

Her voice was very soft, but the two were too close; they were originally sitting with knees touching knees, and when she leaned forward, their shoulders were pressed together.

Look, this is the benefit of having no money; if they lived in a large flat, how could a tutor teach so closely?

"Knock knock."

The door was knocked, Zhai Da immediately increased the distance again, and Yu Xiaoli walked in with an enamel iron tray.

"Studying is so tiring, eat some fruit."

Zhai Da immediately leaned back tactically, ending the brief physical contact.

Yu Xiaoli's eyes were like an active phased array radar, but she didn't say anything, put down the cut plate, and left.

Zhai Da breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of whether he was reborn or not, he hadn't lived under the same roof with Yu Xiaoli + some female before.

In front of his mother, he always instinctively wanted to avoid suspicion.

After Yu Xiaoli went out, Zhai Da looked at Lu Wei: "Why didn't you lean back just now?"

Only I am dodging and hiding, wouldn't that make me look like a little C-boy!

Lu Wei blinked: "Why lean back?"

"Just do as I say."

As soon as the words fell, the door was opened again.

"Only took the fruit but didn't give toothpicks..."

Zhai Da turned his head helplessly: "Mom, this is the fourth time you've come in tonight, is there something you want to say? Say it boldly."

Yu Xiaoli smiled: "What's there to say? Can't I care about you? Xiao Wei has worked hard, is Zhai Da very stupid? Can you teach him?"

Lu Wei hurriedly shook her head; in fact, Zhai Da's level was better than she imagined, which was very different from the "factory reserve" Yu Xiaoli often talked about at the factory.

She had even fantasized about becoming a fellow worker with Zhai Da.

"No, Teacher Yu, Zhai Da is very smart..."

After finishing, she looked at Zhai Da's gaze and thought of the instruction just now.

Suddenly she leaned back.

"Thud!"

The back of her head hit the wall.

"Ouch..." Although her ponytail blocked it a bit, it still hurt quite a bit.

The sudden, nerve-wracking move left both mother and son silent.

Zhai Da said seriously to Yu Xiaoli: "Look, it's obvious that I'm the smartest one in this room."

Yu Xiaoli: "You can only say that after I leave this room; alright, I won't come in anymore, you two have fun, I mean study well."

After Yu Xiaoli left, Zhai Da pressed Lu Wei's head and looked at the back of her head.

"It's nothing, no redness or swelling, continue explaining the problem, I still don't understand."

The private little tutoring had been on the job for three days, and both had gradually found their state.

Except for occasionally letting Zhai Da get distracted because of the narrow space, the overall progress was gratifying.

Lu Wei was indeed amazing; even though for her, systematic learning was a thing of a year ago, her state recovered extremely quickly, and the "All-Rounder of Science" was by no means a hollow name.

Subjectively speaking, he felt Lu Wei explained better than the school teachers.

Mainly because of patience; no matter how many times she repeated, no matter how basic the questions Zhai Da asked were, she would explain them seriously.

Hmm... and she smelled better than the school teachers.

Until 12 o'clock, Zhai Da felt Lu Wei's head was already nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, so he put down his pen and gently pushed her shoulder.

"Go back and rest, you're quite tired from work every day."

Lu Wei shook her head: "The college entrance exam isn't far away, you need to be more diligent."

She suddenly remembered something, stood up and said: "Wait a moment, I didn't bring the physics we studied today, I have something for you."

After a while, Lu Wei walked back and took out a notebook from behind her back.

Ordinary, off-white cover, soft texture, probably three yuan a copy at the small shop.

"This is my previous math notebook... because I had to distinguish between high school math and Olympiad knowledge points, I organized it myself; before being... kicked out, it seems I made a mistake in the rush and packed it in..."

A broken line appeared in Zhai Da's line of sight; because it had been pressed at the bottom of the box by Lu Wei before, even she herself didn't realize it, so this was the first time Zhai Da saw this notebook.

"Congratulations to the host, discovered white special item 【Lu Wei's Math Notebook】: For her, high school math is as simple as breathing and drinking water."

"Current status: Not obtained, not unsealed."

"Equipment effect 1: Carrying it can slightly increase math comprehension ability; there is a double bonus when studying the content of the notebook itself."

"Equipment effect 2: Focusing on the notebook itself has a very small probability of 【temporarily】 resonating with the owner's talent, gaining an improvement (ineffective for the owner)."

"Note: Only those with 'talent' who create with care are qualified to make their notes become 'special items'."

Lu Wei handed the notebook to Zhai Da with both hands: "There are only two or three hours every day when I get home, and it has to be distributed to the four subjects of math, physics, chemistry, and biology; this notebook might be able to help you, and you can also flip through it at school."

As Zhai Da took it, the system information showed that he had obtained ownership of this piece of equipment, and the ability was also triggered.

Zhai Da said very solemnly: "Thank you, I will make good use of it."

Flipping through it, the handwriting inside couldn't be called beautiful, but the strokes were very cute, and the paper was very neat and clean.

Theorems, typical examples, hand-drawn geometric figures...

Even if this wasn't a "special item" or 【equipment】, it would be enough for Zhai Da to gain a certain improvement.

And... seeing the system's description of this 【equipment】, Zhai Da felt that "notebooks" seemed to be a type of special equipment; could different notebooks have similar effects?

Only "those with talent"... could make notes become "special items"... Lu Wei's talent had actually reached a height recognized by the system.

This should be far beyond her mock exam level of 630...

That's right, Lu Wei's math was always 150, that's because the full score was only 150; for the 630 score, most of the points lost were in her weak subjects of Chinese and English.

What was even more surprising was that Lu Wei actually had more treasures hidden:

"Actually, I wrote three math notebooks, and two each for physics, chemistry, and biology, but unfortunately they are all at home... I probably can't get them out."

Because of the compulsory execution there, the locks had been changed and seals had been applied.

Zhai Da had a flash of inspiration: should he find a way to get in and take them all out?

——————

At the same time, two kilometers away from Sanmao Community, in a certain internet cafe.

Wu Yue, who was generous enough to charge 300 and get 300, rubbed his tired eyes.

300 episodes of Detective Conan, can't finish! Absolutely can't finish!

And he felt that the plot behind was gradually going astray; he was here to cultivate "detective thinking" to report the red house behind.

Not to watch how to kill people with paperclips!

Looking at his watch, using the excuse of going to Zhai Da's house to watch discs, it was about time to go home... but the charging time was in units of half an hour, and leaving now would be a loss of twenty minutes...

After thinking about it, Wu Yue opened the webpage, preparing to browse casually.

The internet cafe's browser homepage was directly bundled to the most mainstream website at the moment, "Star Wave."

Originally, he was prepared to log in to 17173 mini-games directly to play "Whack Your Boss," but was attracted by a news headline.

To be precise, it was a photo.

In the scrolling corner, a picture a few centimeters in size, along with a news headline.

"Isn't this the road to school..."

The footprints on the white wall were ones he had kicked himself.

He clicked in with confusion.

"Holy shit! Isn't this Zhai Da?!"

Although it was only a back view, he wouldn't mistake this butt...

Looking at the content again...

"Small-town teenager becomes micro-fiction contest champion, another buried Han Han-style genius?"

Wu Yue wiped his eyes.

Damn it! Da Zi is in the news!
