Chapter 188 - 188: He Had To Decide At Once

Ada smiled, "I guess you may ask about the name of the song, right? I love music. I may work on music in the future. I know this song; it's the Blue Danube."

She was very proud of herself when she got the question. She could catch up with one point if she answered it correctly.

The audience understood the importance of the question. If Ada was wrong, she would lose one point. Then Sophia would be seven points ahead of her. With seven questions left, even if she got all the answers right, it would be a tie with Sophia.

Everyone waited quietly for the host to announce the answer.

Clarence announced, "It's a wrong answer,"

As soon as his voice fell, the audience was boiling. This meant that Ada would no longer have a chance to overtake Sophia.

Ada froze and immediately retorted, "How could it be? I am very familiar with this song. It's the Blue Danube. It can't be wrong."

Clarence smiled, "I told you. You should listen to the question. The question is…Who wrote this song in which year? It's not about the name of the song."

Ada got worried, "No way! The question I got was to ask about the name…"

With these words, she clapped her hand to her mouth.

She was in such a hurry that she said what she shouldn't have said.

Immediately, the audience was in an uproar.

The question she got?

So, she admitted she knew the question before?

The question was different from what she knew. She was angry about it, right?

The impatient audience couldn't help cursing, "What fucking show? I can't believe someone knows the question. Then there was no point in the game."

"It's not unfair to Sophia. She's here to compete. But compete against someone who knew the question? Are you kidding me?"

"Shameless bitch! The program must give us an explanation. Sophia has five million fans."

"I spent so much money to come here to support Sophia. But what's that? I have to twitter it."

The scene was chaotic. If it hadn't been for the security guard, a few people would have rushed onto the stage to catch Ada.

Clarence shouted, "Don't worry, everyone. We'll make it clear and give you an explanation. We'll never let this show turn into an unfair one."

Sophia did not know who had changed the question, but she knew that someone must be helping her.

However, she didn't expect Ada to be so impatient and tell everything. With Ada's intelligence, how could she want to become popular in the name of a high achiever?

But Sophia didn't want to see the chaos, and there might be people injured. She picked up the microphone and said, "Be quiet, everyone."

Hearing Sophia, the audience was getting quiet.

Sophia said, "Listen to me, please. I believe the program will give you an explanation. Super Quiz has already had nine seasons, and it has always been a fair and just show. This program has a team of over one hundred people. Today's event may be the fault of one person. Please don't implicate all the people who work hard for this program."

When hearing these words, the audience said they had to know the truth before they could decide whether to forgive the show.

The recording was interrupted, but many viewers refused to leave and sat there waiting for a result.

Sophia couldn't help it.

***

Director Newman was going crazy.

The accident was beyond his expectations. The Super Quiz lasted nine seasons, and he finally got the position of the general director. However, would all his effort be ruined because of the stupid Ada?

Before the staff of Pearson Group came to him and told him about the leak, which arose his attention, and he promised to change the questions at once to ensure the fairness of the game.

However, time was short. They only got to change part of the questions in the third round. He already knew that the cheating contestant was number one, Ada. As long as she could not win the championship, the Pearson Group would not complain, and the audience would not know it, Newman thought. After all, only the champion could make it to the final, and few people would pay attention to the runner-up.

Anyway, Sophia was there, and she would win as long as he changed some questions, Newman was very confident about that.

But… how could he have thought Ada was a moron?

The program group held an urgent meeting to discuss how to deal with the matter.

The man from Pearson Group had told Director Newman that it was the vice director, Fox, who leaked the questions. In fact, even if no one said that the first person to be blamed was the vice director because he was in charge of choosing the questions.

Director Fox denied, "No, I didn't do that. It must be… Carry! Yes, she was in charge of inputting the questions and making them into pictures. It's her! It's her!"

Carry was soon called in, and when she learned that director Fox had put all the blame on her, she was so scared that she cried, "How could I do that? It's not me. I… I didn't tell anyone after I inputted the questions into the computer. I didn't do anything!"

Director Newman frowned. In addition to him, only these two people knew the questions. No one admitted that they had leaked the questions, and he could not think of a way for a moment.

"Where's Ada?" Director Newman asked.

"She left. We have no right to keep her here. Even if she cheated, we can't do anything to her. Although what she did was very immoral, it is not illegal. We can't call the police, right?" One staff member said.

Director Newman could only say, "Well, forget about it."

Even if Ada had been found, she would not have told him who leaked the questions. Even if she was willing to say, he might not believe her.

Viewers were still outside waiting for a response from the program group, and if they could not explain, it would have a very bad impact on the whole show.

He had to decide at once.
