The classmates cast envious glances at Cheng Tong. Cheng Tong became even more smug. He shot me a glance, his eyes filled with disdain and provocation, as if to say: "Did you see that? This is my strength." I was speechless. This guy really knows how to inflate his own ego. If he truly had won first place, why would anyone report him for cheating? What a fool.
The Vice Principal of Instruction continued speaking. He addressed Cheng Tong, saying, "Congratulations, Cheng Tong. Your hard work has paid off." "I hope you continue to strive for excellence." Cheng Tong nodded with a smile, "I will." The Vice Principal smiled with satisfaction. He turned to us and continued, "Students, do you see this? This is what strength looks like." "I hope you all learn from Cheng Tong in the future." "Study hard and strive to achieve good results next time."
The members of the Inspection Team could no longer hold back. One of them said, "Um... Vice Principal, could you let us finish speaking?" The Vice Principal was taken aback, "Huh? Do you have something else to say?" The person replied, "Regarding Cheng Tong's cheating, we haven't finished discussing it." The Vice Principal waved his hand dismissively, "It's fine, I know." "Cheng Tong is so outstanding; getting first place is definitely not a problem." "You don't need to praise him."
The person's mouth twitched slightly, "That's not what I meant." "What do you mean then?" The person responded, "What I mean is that we have found evidence of Cheng Tong cheating in the Mathematics Competition." "His results will be nullified, and he will face disciplinary action and citywide criticism." Upon hearing this, the entire room was stunned. The classmates were left dumbfounded.
They looked at Cheng Tong and the Vice Principal in disbelief, momentarily at a loss for words. Cheng Tong and the Vice Principal's expressions were as if they had swallowed a fly, utterly remarkable. The Vice Principal snapped back to reality.
With a shocked look, he stared at the person and asked, "What did you say?"
The person replied, "I said that Cheng Tong cheated in the Mathematics Competition."
"His results will be canceled, and he will face disciplinary action and citywide criticism."
The Vice Principal of Instruction was incredulous: "How is this possible? Cheng Tong is so outstanding; how could he cheat?"
The person chuckled lightly, "We also didn't want to believe this fact. But it is what it is."
"We have evidence."
Saying this, he took the paper again and began to read.
"This is the information we gathered during our investigation."
"We came here to announce the results of our investigation."
"After our inquiry, we found that Cheng Tong engaged in cheating during the Mathematics Competition."
"Therefore, we have decided to cancel his results and impose disciplinary action along with citywide criticism."
"We hope everyone learns from this and avoids making similar mistakes."
After hearing this person's words, the Vice Principal was completely stunned. He looked at Cheng Tong in shock and asked, "What is going on?"
Cheng Tong stammered, "I... I don't know either."
"Principal, you have to believe me."
"I really did not cheat."
The Vice Principal of Instruction frowned: "Then why do they say you cheated?"
The students were in an uproar upon hearing this news.
"Oh my gosh, Cheng Tong actually cheated?"
"That's unbelievable."
"So it turns out he was just pretending all along."
The students murmured among themselves, casting disdainful glances at Cheng Tong.
Cheng Tong's face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He stammered, "No... I didn't cheat."
"Principal, you have to believe me."
"I did not cheat."
At that moment, the Deputy Director rushed over. It turned out that he had an event today and was now on site. He originally just wanted to see Cheng Tong's performance. Unexpectedly, he heard this news.
With wide eyes filled with disbelief, he said, "What did you say? My son is cheating? That's impossible, I don't believe it."
The members of the Inspection Team smiled lightly and directly handed him the disciplinary notice. "If you have any objections, you can file an appeal. However, I don't think that's necessary."
The Deputy Director trembled as he held the notice. He looked at Cheng Tong in shock and asked, "What is going on?"
Cheng Tong repeated, "I don't know."
"Dad, you have to believe me. I really didn't cheat."
The Vice Principal couldn't help but ask, "If it was cheating, why didn't the invigilator notice it?"
"As far as I know, the invigilator for that competition was present."
"And there were cameras in the examination room."
"If Cheng Tong really cheated, how could it not be discovered?"
A member of the Inspection Team gave Cheng Tong a meaningful look and said, "He used a miniature receiver to cheat."
"He hid the receiver in his pencil case and in his glasses. As long as he pressed a button, he could receive the answers."
Upon hearing this, the entire room was shocked.
