"I will send you off one last time" [Global Examination]

[52] You Seem Delicious: Small Commotion

The words spoken by 021 in the confinement room were all heard by You Huo.

As for whether or not he believed those words, that was another story.

The invigilators all sighed.

Yeah, considering how distrustful You Huo was of the System and Qin Jiu's ridiculous antics so far... especially considering Qin Jiu just told him that the System can change up the memories of the invigilators, and that could result in the invigilators themselves having misinformation that they thought was true... it wasn't surprising that You Huo didn't entirely trust 021's words.

But still, it was a little frustrating... Memory loss was always frustrating, like trying to grab something that should be there, but was such an abstract concept that couldn't be physically grasped.

For now, he had only encountered a few insiders-

154 and 922 had no relationship with him and they're also part of the opposing faction so they wouldn't disclose too much information.

154 pouted.

It wasn't like he didn't want to give You Huo information... but the last time he said something about the System (and it wasn't even any important information anyways...), he had triggered the System so much that it activated his monitoring device...

It wasn't his fault! It was the System!

If you said that they were deliberatively pretending to be stupid... He wasn't certain whether 922 was really acting stupid or if he truly was stupid.

"Hey!" Wen Yuan protested, "I'm not stupid..."

078 patted him on the back understandingly, having been also the victim of being called stupid. He pouted at 021, who just huffed at him.

The others couldn't help but laugh goodheartedly at this exchange.

As for whether they knew about the System and Invigilator A, it was difficult for him to tell for now.

As for Qin Jiu...

Whether they were "incompatible" or "didn't have a very good relationship", Qin Jiu at the very least should have interacted with him before.

Everyone glanced at You Huo and Qin Jiu, who were just chilling on the couch.

...

They had no words for this.

What "didn't have a very good relationship", these two were vibing!

Qin Jiu definitely knows Invigilator A, yet why didn't he react when he saw him?

Qin Jiu's reaction contradicted 021's words.

If what 021 said was true and he was indeed Invigilator A, then why didn't Qin Jiu recognize him?

Was he deliberately pretending to be a stranger for fun? Or was there something wrong with Qin Jiu?

As future You Huo explained his through process with the context of the given situation... it wasn't hard to see how obvious it was that Qin Jiu's memory had been interfered with.

"As psycho as GIN is... I don't think even he would think that pretending to be a stranger would be fun." Invigilator F admitted.

The other invigilators, moderate and hardliner alike, all nodded.

Now if they thought about it... as an examinee, Qin Jiu just seemed keen on attracting You Huo's attention by writing down his code, or breaking rules and left and right... and even that eventually stopped at some point after You Huo confronted him.
