CHAPTER 2049: CHAPTER 1872: YOU’RE THIRD FROM THE BOTTOM (SUBSCRIBE!)

Cat?

Dog?

Sewage?

All she can do is jump down, Qin Shiqi looks bewildered, what kind of wicked idea question is this, let’s not even mention rescuing a cat or a dog, just the act of jumping down is enough to make her shiver at the thought.

What to do?

Save.

Or not save.

In an instant.

Qin Shiqi imagines herself in that scenario, her face changing unpredictably, no matter which one she saves, she’ll have to soak in the sewage for a while. Moreover, saving just one would lead to moral condemnation.

Don’t save.

Same result.

Because both lives are lost.

"Please answer quickly," the woman said coldly.

"I..."

Qin Shiqi was a bit flustered.

Suddenly.

Her eyes lit up, it seemed that whichever she saved was a trap, this question wasn’t about saving a cat or a dog, both were wrong, yes, definitely, the answer lies outside the question.

Her mind raced.

After a few seconds.

A smile hung on Qin Shiqi’s face.

Unexpectedly.

The person opposite suddenly said.

"Answer time too long, next question."

"I.."

Suddenly.

Qin Shiqi was dumbfounded.

Alright.

Next question then, I’ll definitely get it right.

"Second question, if the boss cheats and is discovered by his wife, he will lose everything, and the Breeding Center would be left to the pet-eating lady boss. You accidentally find out, do you tell or not?"

Just like the previous question, Qin Shiqi looked completely confused.

Cheating?

Eat... animals?

What?

What does this mean, similar to the last question, choosing either is hard to accept, no, this must be another pit, got to jump out of logic and focus on problem-solving, otherwise, I’ll stray far from the answer.

She pondered.

Hmm.

These kinds of questions.

Shouldn’t be about choosing, but about resolving.

"I would suggest the boss stop the inappropriate relationship, subtly hinting the lady boss seems to know something, to make him wary. As for her, have a good conversation about the dangers of eating pets."

Hmm.

Not perfect, but quite acceptable.

In fact.

If faced with this for real, the approach wouldn’t be so gentle, but for the interview, to maintain a ’righteous’ image, adopting a relatively ’conservative’ way to resolve these conflicts is essential.

Perfect.

Qin Shiqi thinks.

"Not bad."

The woman smiled.

But.

Just as Qin Shiqi’s smile appeared, it froze.

"Zero points."

The woman said.

"Why?"

Qin Shiqi protested.

"Ordinary, with no distinctive characteristics, mediocrity is not a crime. However, we need talented people with ability and boldness, so mediocrity amounts to zero points," the woman’s voice was icy cold.

"..."

Gasp!

Qin Shiqi took a deep breath.

Sis!

I’m applying for Finance, what does boldness and ability have to do with it, but she dared not refute, as that would be admitting: I lack ability, lack courage, they demand something I don’t possess, I refuse to accept.

This statement.

If she says it aloud, she could hardly face her brother again.

Stay calm.

Indeed, the so-called resolution method was too generic, anyone could come up with it, not outstanding, she submitted it just to get by, claiming to be a genius girl, a disgrace to the family!

"Continue."

The woman spoke again.

"The company assigns you to infiltrate the rival and gather information, will you go?"

"..."

After hearing this.

Qin Shiqi was again speechless.

Business spying?

Sis!

This question is way beyond the scope, I never considered this issue, as for now, based on the previous logic, the correct answer isn’t whether to go or not, but the overall solution.

Spy.

What is needed is the opponent’s information.

Easy.

Find the key person on the opposing side, bribe, much better than being a spy myself, or even hire a thief to get what I want, or else... seems like it’s all illegal.

Wut.

Then.. I’ll choose to resign.

"Next question.."

Upon hearing that.

Qin Shiqi shivered all over.

Scared.

Sis.

Can you give me a way out? Also, bro, where did you find this demon interviewer, not nice at all, asking weird questions, making me almost lose my mind.

Boohoo.

Next question, please spare me.

However.

Ten minutes later.

Qin Shiqi was almost crying, this wasn’t an interview but a test of human nature, every question made her struggle, if one could answer them all, she’d likely ace the life exam.

At last.

The woman summarized.

"Poor!"

A single word.

No further evaluation.

"Bro."

Qin Shiqi gritted her teeth.

At this moment.

She finally realized she was ’live broadcasted’, possibly even recorded and shared with family members. And all of this was prearranged, where would an interview ask such things?

"Not bad."

Tang Qing seemed unphased, chuckling.

"Not bad?"

Qin Shiqi’s voice rose a few octaves, her cheeks puffing, showing others she’s annoyed.

Poor.

And you’re telling me not bad?

"Yes."

"Firstly, poor is not the lowest score."

"Very poor."

"Extremely poor."

"You’re third from the bottom."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shiqi felt slightly relieved, not at the very bottom.

But.

Why can’t I be happy?

Then.

She heard Tang Qing smile and say: "That was an upgraded version of Sky Eye’s question bank---societal ability testing, workplace affairs are just part of it, it’s an addition to evaluating high-level talents."

Those dozen questions.

Were just for fun.

The question bank contains thousands, belonging to an upgraded version of ’brain-burning’ question bank, without standard answers, the entire scoring isn’t solely based on one’s answers but the process.

In short.

Very complex.

Qin Shiqi, a first-year student.

Poor!

Normal.

As for very poor and extremely poor, sorry, that was just a bluff to Qin Shiqi. Whoever tackles this question bank is high-level talent, poor, is quite broad, equivalent to failing.

In exams.

One point and fifty-five points, both are failing.

"Oh."

Upon hearing this.

Qin Shiqi felt much better.

High level.

Talent.

These two words, seemed to have little to do with her, still just a first-year student, naturally, getting a ’poor!’ rating wasn’t surprising, alright, she took a fall this time.

"Societal ability."

Such a big topic.

"Bro."

"Hmm?"

"You’re really nice." Qin Shiqi suddenly smiled, now she’s in university, gradually coming into contact with society, realizing that the world doesn’t always indulge you, this interview was Tang Qing’s way to show her shortcomings.

Instead of a prank, to laugh at her expense.

"Uh!"

Tang Qing looked upward.

In fact.

He really wanted to see Qin Shiqi’s indecisive look, alright, quite a pleasant misunderstanding.

...

Time passed briskly.

Another week.

Japan.

The investigation team, enjoying themselves in Tokyo, hurried back to Xin’an City after receiving news that three Scientists, after surviving ’nine deaths and one life’, had finally stabilized and could be seen.

Recalling.

They were speechless.

A month’s abducted life, eating, drinking, nothing wrong. As described by the Myanmar side, after returning it was constant disasters, as if being with robbers was safer than in domestic Myanmar.
