Competitions sure are tough!
Late at night.
The thought crossed Chen Che's mind as he was in Shushan Park, familiarizing himself with the exam grounds. He noticed that every candidate he passed on the way looked stern and anxious.
He understood why.
These students had all been at the top of their respective school districts. But now, at the provincial competition, they had suddenly discovered they were merely average. It was only natural for them to feel defeated.
The few people with him were even more silent.
This was especially true after they overheard a conversation between a mother and son by the roadside:
"Inspector Fu, is it useful to check out the exam site at night?"
"The exam lasts three days, so there will definitely be a night battle. I want to get familiar with it."
"...Are you a little nervous? Just do your best."
