I Will Not Live as a Genius - I Will Not Live as a Genius chapter 31

31. Hanon Twenty-Seven

said the college student’s assistant hyung.

“How are you?”

“It still feels hot.”

“okay? Now that you’ve applied Vaseline, try putting on an ice pack.”

“yes.”

“Are your legs okay?”

“Leg… yo. this?”

“Yeah, the beaker fell to the floor and broke.”

“Well… I think it’s fine.”

“then… Can you get up?”

“yes.”

“Then let’s go to the hospital with me now.”

I shook my head and said.

“It’s just that I have a feeling of heat in my back… I don’t think I’ll be able to go to the hospital… .”

Yeong-mi, who was next to me, cut off my horse and told my assistant hyung.

“Please go to the hospital right now.”

Suddenly, the door to the lab swung open.

was a science teacher.

“Hey Jeongho! Are you okay?”

Before I could answer, Youngmi said.

“It’s not okay. I think I need to go to the hospital right now.”

Actually, my condition doesn’t seem too serious, but I think I’d better go to the hospital.

If I don’t go to the hospital… .

It was unlikely that Yeong-mi’s upper lip would remain.

10 minutes ago.

The moment the water in the beaker poured, I unconsciously flew towards Yeong-mi.

Fortunately, I was standing right next to Yeong-mi, so I was able to hug her right away, and in the meantime, the water in the beaker spilled onto my back.

A stabbing pain spread to his back, and the water from the beaker ran down his shirt and felt hot all the way down to his buttocks.

It really was a thousand blessings.

Unlike me, who was standing, Yeong-mi was sitting on a chair, so if I hadn’t stopped… The boiling water must have been directed towards Yeong-mi’s face.

We got to the hospital by taxi, and when the doctor said that it was not a serious burn, Yeong-mi burst into tears.

I took Youngmi’s hand and said.

“I’m fine… Do not cry.”

Youngmi looked at me with red eyes and nodded her head.

hospital administration department.

A small quarrel broke out between the science teacher and the university student assistant brother.

It was a question of whose name was put in the guardian column, and in the end, the assistant hyung won.

The assistant hyung filled out the hospital documents and asked for my personal information, and I sat next to him and watched him fill out the documents.

But this assistant hyung… The writing is really bad.

Not only Hangeul, but also the way the numbers were written was a little strange, especially the number 8 was written very strangely.

I usually write 8 for one stroke, but this hyung drew two circles separately and wrote 8.

evening time.

When the tour bus arrived at the school grounds, the science teacher drove me home, and I felt sorry for the teacher who bowed his head and apologized to his mother, saying he was sorry.

Mother’s worried expression.

I told my mother, who was checking the wounds on her back.

“The doctor said that as long as the wound is disinfected well, it will heal quickly. If you have blisters, I told you not to pop them.”

When I brought up the explanation that the boiling water was spilled by mistake by another child… .

The doorbell rang.

It was Youngmi’s family.

Anglo-American father held a large pharmacy bag in his hand, which contained disinfectant gauze, burn ointment, petrolatum and disinfectant.

While my mother and Youngmi’s parents were talking in the living room, I entered my room with Youngmi.

“How about your back?”

I said with a smile.

“It has improved a lot. Now the feeling of warmth is almost gone.”

“just now… You couldn’t even lean back on the bus.”

“ah… ! It’s not because it hurts, it’s because it’s a little uncomfortable. The doctor told me before. You’ll be fine in a week.”

“For no reason, because of me… .”

When tears began to form in Yeong-mi’s eyes, I tapped her on the shoulder and said.

“Because I’m really fine. And if you cry right now, you’re in trouble.”

“… ?”

“It’s almost December, and Santa Claus hasn’t given us any presents.”

“Pooh!”

okay… Youngmi’s smile is pretty.

That night.

I couldn’t sleep until late.

It was uncomfortable to sleep on one side, but the image of Youngmi crying in the hospital kept replaying in my mind.

Not long ago, when Young-mi’s father was investigated by the police, I was also concerned about the appearance of Young-mi crying in her father’s arms.

I don’t know if this sounds weird, but… .

Looking back, Youngmi knows how to shed tears.

Youngmi in her past life never shed any tears.

It was Youngmi who had never cried in front of me.

At the time, I thought it was simply a matter of strong mentality, but now I feel it vaguely.

Until you have such a strong mentality… .

The beauty of the past life is how hard and arduous life you have lived.

Let’s think about it this far… .

I remembered the scar on Yeongmi’s left cheek in her past life.

ah… ! Then maybe… !

It starts on the left cheek and goes down to the nape of the neck… And it was a blurry scar that was hard to see if you didn’t look closely.

I didn’t ask any more after I realized that Youngmi hated talking about the scar.

And as I just remembered, Youngmi rarely talked about her middle and high school days.

When I was in elementary school, we talked about it so often.

As the doctor said, the blisters disappeared after a week, and the burn wounds started to heal slowly.

And with the beginning of December, it was time to prepare for the final exam.

On the way home after school.

Youngmi said to me and Incheol.

“Would you like to study together at my house today?”

“No! do it with you guys I have work to do when I get home.”

“What happened?”

“I’m learning how to make a virus these days.”

Unlike Yeongmi, who was shy, I was startled.

“Wow! Really? You make a computer virus?”

Incheol said with a bubbly expression.

“Actually, it’s not a virus. There are configuration files in a common system folder, and all you have to do is write code that changes these files little by little.”

“Oh oh! let me know how i do it yes?”

Incheol opened his eyes and opened his mouth.

“Hmm… The disciple didn’t want to take it… I hope that the main seat will accept disciples generously, um ha ha ha! So, will you come to my house later?”

I looked at Yeong-mi at In-cheol’s question, and Yeong-mi shook her head with a determined expression.

I said to Incheol.

“Do it later… After the final exam… .”

Incheol took a deep breath and said.

“Ugh! Traitor son, I thought you would.”

“Sorry, Sorry!”

At my apology, In-cheol said with a serious expression.

“By the way… You guys should prepare well for this final exam.”

“What do you mean?”

“You know our class leader, Yeonji. He wasn’t kidding. They say they’ve only been preparing for the final exams two weeks ago. At school, he only reads books during breaks and lunches, and he had a lot of poison.”

Youngmi’s house.

I have my national history book open and I’m thinking differently, and Young-mi is solving problems from the Math Olympiad.

Young-mi is very serious about solving a math problem.

It was because I had already buried my head in the practice field for an hour.

Youngmi shook her head and said.

“Wow–! Unlocked!”

Youngmi checked her watch and continued speaking with a disappointed expression.

“ah… But it takes an hour… .”

I asked Youngmi.

“You, aren’t you going to prepare for the final exam?”

For reference, the final exams are next Friday and Saturday, and the Math Olympiad is held on the following Friday.

Youngmi laughed at my question and said.

“Is not it? I have to study for the final exam now… This is a big deal because solving math problems is so much fun. What?”

“By the way, I’m studying what I want to do.”

“Is not it? And, after solving this problem book… I think I’m getting a little greedy.”

“greed?”

Youngmi nodded her head.

“Yes, I want to go to the Math Olympiad and do well. I wonder what my abilities are.”

I nodded and said.

“Young-mi, you will definitely do well.”

‘Cause I’ll help

After a week, the final exams started.

I set a goal of 97 points on this test.

If the test questions feel easy, I plan to raise the score to 98.

I didn’t know at all until I got 3rd place in the midterm exam… It was because I knew that there are quite a few activities in school where only children who are good at studying, so-called model students, participate.

In addition to major external events such as science contests and math olympiads, as well as minor intramural events, there was a place for the best students to gather almost every two weeks.

And the reason I want to participate in this schoolboy event is… .

It’s because Yeon-ji doesn’t know what else to do with Young-mi.

Not long ago, In-cheol said that Yeon-ji was a really scary child… .

I shouldn’t have listened to that from the beginning.

After the final exam, the homeroom teacher in charge of mathematics called Yeongmi, Yeonji, and me.

It was to prepare for the Math Olympiad on Friday.

Our class after school.

the teacher said

“Then would you like to talk about how Young-mi should solve problem 13?”

“yes. Well… After converting the second expression to an expression for y… I think we can substitute that into the original expression, change the third expression to the expression for z, and substitute it into the original expression.”

In response to Youngmi’s answer, the teacher said.

“Then the original given equation will be an equation in which x remains, right?”

“Yes, so if we rearrange that expression for x, the answer is -1.”

“ah… ! Have you already solved this problem?”

“yes.”

The teacher smiled and said,

“Yeah, Yeong-mi is well-prepared. haha!”

After a while, the teacher erased the smile from his face and said to Yeonji.

“Let’s try Roonji for the next question 14.”

Yeonji said with a perplexed expression.

“I… Teacher… I was studying for the final exam, so I barely prepared for the Olympiad.”

The teacher said in a cold voice.

“therefore… How are you going to solve it, you won’t even try?”

“I, that… .”

Yeonji bowed her head, looked at the problem book, and raised her head again.

“well… I don’t know.”

The teacher let out a short sigh and turned to me.

“Then will Jung-ho try it?”

It was a geometric problem that seemed a bit complicated, but in fact, it was a problem to be solved only by knowing that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees and the sum of the interior angles of a rectangle is 360 degrees.

I said.

“first… I think I need to draw a straight line connecting points A and C to divide the pentagon in the picture into a rectangle and a triangle. Then, extend the line segment connecting B and C to the outside, extend line segment AE in the same way to make a large triangle, and then calculate the angle at point D using the sum of the interior angles of the triangle and square .”

The teacher said at the end of the after-school class that day.

“You guys, do you know that last year’s winner was our school student?”

We nodded, and the teacher continued.

“I did well at last year’s Math Olympiad, but in fact, five years ago, our school always had a winner. So the principal has quite high expectations for you. So, prepare hard for the Olympiad. Understand?”

“yes.”

The teacher said to Yeonji with a frown.

“Yeonji, I think you need to prepare especially hard.”

Yeonji said in a crawling voice.

“yes… .”

“Okay then, see you tomorrow after school.”

So the teacher left the classroom, and while packing the bag, Yeonji said to Yeongmi.

“Young-mi, where did you get that book?”

Youngmi looked at Yeonji for a moment and opened her mouth with a short sigh.

“It was given to me by my math teacher.”
