Chapter 24 The Ruse

...“You are back to bring me down....

...Makes me forced to pretend to be strong standing up against you.”...

Next week, Monday.

These are the moments that smart students look forward to all over the Metropolitan city! Today is held the Mandraguna Science Olympiad accompanied by a bright blue sky. As bright as the brains of those who will try to win the champion in this Olympics!

The participants of the Olympics came from the representatives of the schools in the Metropolitan city. They are fighting for the title of champion to boast of their respective schools.

For Jaro and Ansa, this is the place for their betting event. Very crazy, but this makes them to continue learning and learning.

From seven to nine in the morning, the participants worked on the given questions. At this moment, Jaro launched his action.

Goodbye, Ansa-yang.

After struggling with Olympic questions, all participants were gathered in one hall to be given a speech about the spirit of learning in an increasingly advanced technological age.

"A quote from Albert Einstein. Try not to be a successful person. But try to be a person of value."

"Ali bin Abi Talib. The best revenge is to make yourself better."

Two days later, Wednesday.

The day of the Olympic champion announcement has arrived. Again Ansa and Jaro and other participants were gathered in the hall.

There, the headmaster of Mandraguna gave a speech. Until Jaro momentarily fell asleep on the shoulder of Revelation.

"God! Woi up!" whispered Revelation. He pushed Jaro's head.

"Cold sleepy, Yu. Just stay away." Jaro again leaned on the shoulder of his crazy-bodied friend. He felt like he was leaning against a soft pillow.

On the other hand, Ansa listened to the headmaster's chatter as her hands moved over the mobile phone screen. Suddenly he heard his name called by the headmaster.

On the projector screen measuring about 1 to 2 meters, clearly displayed a crumpled piece of paper inscribed with formulas and few letters.

"It was found under bench number 37, in the name of Najiha Hansaria."

The headmaster stopped talking for a while among the noisy crowd of participants. Jaro has the face of Sumringah. Finally ....

"Initially we were very sorry about this. Najiha, who has won the top 3 champion for the last 3 years, turned out to use a sneaky way," he continued.

Earlier, on Saturday.

Jaro contacts Mei to request a photo of May's formula note. But her request was rejected because Mei also copied Ansa's notes.

"Oh great! Quickly ask him. Keep sending it to me, huh?"

"Okay, just ya!" reply May.

Of course Ansa wants to take pictures and share them, making Jaro's plan go smoothly.

The school principal is back. "But we are suspicious. Because for many years, Mandraguna students have always been selected using problems with a level of difficulty similar to the Olympics. So we checked the CCTV."

Ansa lowered her head, not caring anymore about the headmaster's words. It seems to be defamed like this. I wasn't wrong, but their views and thoughts towards me seemed to kill me.

"On CCTV it was clear that a student had thrown the paper onto Najiha's bench. Even the writing on the paper had him plagiarized as if it were Najiha's handwriting."

Jaro's body shook. Both of his neutrals glared towards the headmaster. He only realized that there was CCTV recording the action two days ago.

"Finally ..we decided that Najiha did not commit fraud. Najiha is purely sportive in participating in the Olympics" said the principal.

"And also, we officially disqualified and immediately handed the punishment to the participants who had tried to bring down the good name of Najiha."

"Sorry, I won't mention his name here. But you'll all know who did it. Because we from the school just want to teach everyone a lesson not to act bad and choose to always compete sportively."

After that, the announcement of the Olympic champion from SD to High School level.

Ansa gets the 2nd place High School. When told to go on stage, his footsteps felt heavy with embarrassment. Shame about what he didn't do.

On the stage, Ansa wiped her tears. He forced his smile onto everyone within the hall.

Then Ansa lifted her trophic and revealed her teeth. The atmosphere there became boisterous as everyone clapped for him.

Jaro didn't win 3, does that mean the other champion is him? inner Ansa.

"In the first position ... Congratulations to number 15!!" said the host.

Oh no. Means he ... is disqualified? The two Ansa netra search for Jaro's whereabouts among the hundreds of Olympic participants. But, failed.
