Chapter 232: Contestant with Character
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Someone in the crowd heard Li Ci and Li Ran’s conversation clearly and looked behind the first person to break through the firewall. Indeed, there was a person in a black jacket who wanted to retreat.
The man quickly pointed at the man in the black jacket and shouted, “Stop him quickly. Don’t let him escape!”
The crowd all moved closer to the man, blocking his retreat.
The emcee had obviously noticed the commotion, so he raised the microphone and said, “Please come on stage, the contestant who obtained the first place in this round, and the gentleman behind you. Please come on stage.”
The emcee didn’t ask the man in the black jacket. Instead, he asked the winner, “Sir, how did you discover the loophole in the firewall during the compet.i.tion just now and break through it as quickly as possible?”
The emcee’s question was very tactful. He was about to give up when he suddenly found a loophole and become the fastest person to break through the firewall, so there must be something fishy. The emcee’s question avoided making things too ugly.
This was a test of whether this person was honest enough.
The man who got first place felt very accomplished that he could break through this firewall in such a short period of time, so whether he got first place or not was no longer that important.
Even if he hid the truth now and successfully entered the third round, he would still be instantly defeated by the firewall. Therefore, the man told the truth.
“Actually, during the compet.i.tion just now, 1 didn’t find any loopholes in the firewall. 1 was about to give up, but I heard someone behind me point out the loopholes in the firewall and tell me a string of codes. Only then was I able to quickly break through the firewall.”
As the man spoke, he pointed his palm at the man in the black jacket, who was also standing on the stage, his eyes filled with admiration.
After the man in the black jacket heard this, he was no longer as secretive as before. Instead, he straightened up and looked at everyone.
The emcee said, “Looks like he’s an expert. Then, may I ask why you guided him during the compet.i.tion?”
The man looked very confident as he said, “Because I happened to see it, I told him.”
Then, without waiting for the emcee to continue asking, the man continued, “I hope to partic.i.p.ate in the third round.”
“Oh really?” The emcee didn’t look very surprised. Instead, he asked, “Sir, if you directly partic.i.p.ate in the third round, the time will be halved.”
“I know.” The man had no intention of backing down. It seemed that he was determined to partic.i.p.ate in the third round.
Now that everyone’s attention was on him and he spoke so confidently, if he didn’t pa.s.s the third round, he would definitely be teased by everyone, but he didn’t seem afraid at all.
Of course, the emcee had no reason to stop him from partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion, so he asked politely, “Sir, can you tell me your name?”
The man looked at the model of the tall building in the exhibition hall and tried his best to sound calm as he said, “Mo Shu.”
So he was Mo Shu!
As soon as the man said his name, the people below began to discuss feverishly and the surroundings suddenly became noisy.
Many people were curious about the author of the work that everyone paid the most attention to in the exhibition hall, but they didn’t expect him to have such a unique personality.
After hearing his name, s.h.i.+ Xiao, Li Ci, and Li Ran also became more interested in him.
The three of them looked at the low-key person on the stage.
Although he was dressed in black, one could tell from his hair and expression that he was young and unruly. This person actually gave off a completely different vibe from his work.
Compared to him, his work seemed more levelheaded. However, only someone with an unruly personality could come up with such a creative model..
