Chapter 257 - 257: This Achievement

Two hours later, Victor arrived home safe and sound.

According to the police, George kidnapped Victor to an abandoned factory and placed explosives there. Then a young man came to the factory and rescued Victor. But... at the last minute, George frantically ignited the explosive. Unfortunately, the young man was buried in the bombed building with him.

Sophia knew "the young man" was Benjamin.

No. Benjamin was not his name. What was his real name? She had no idea.

Was he dead?

She couldn't believe it. With his ability, how could he not escape?

Or he did it on purpose.

All these had been unable to verify. There were too many secrets on Benjamin, and his departure made all these mysteries.

***

Later, Professor Thompson turned himself in at the police station and told the police everything. He was detained at the police station, and his testimony confirmed the arson of professorNormand.

In the collapsed buildings, the police found two bodies. According to DNA tests, one of them was George, but the other could not be identified.

Benjamin had no relatives and there was no blood sample of his. So there was no way to prove that the body was him.

As a member of Sophia's family, Kevin learned the whole truth from the police, and he was depressed.

It was him who brought the toilet water to Sophia. He never expected it to be the weapon that killed her.

Sophia comforted him, "That may doom to happen. You couldn't predict it. Your sister asked you to buy toilet water for her, and you had to do it because you didn't want her to get bitten. Right?"

Kevin thought about it and then said, "Yes, you're right."

Even if everything came again, he would still buy toilet water and send it to her.

Sophia smiled, "Right. That's it. The college entrance examination is coming. Don't think too much; just focus on your study."

Sophia was interested in the college entrance examination. She applied to the school to take the examination. Though she had been admitted to Glinton University, she was still a high school student and was qualified to take it.

Director Bull agreed happily and said that he would sign up for her.

The day before the examination, many people posted messages on their microblog.

"The top scorer of liberal arts in Lands City: Sophia Green!"

"Haha… There is no doubt that she will be the no.1 student in liberal arts."

"Number two must be sad. Why did Sophia take the exam? He might ask."

"We should make a rule: Sophia couldn't take any exams. Only in this way will it be fair to everyone. She's just a big bug."

***

When the exam results were announced, netizens saw that Sophia won the first place as expected. Coincidentally, the top scorer in science was Kurt Weller, who was in the same school as her.

Reporters couldn't find Sophia and could only interview Kurt.

"Kurt, do you have any tips for studying in science? How did you get the first place?"

Kurt was silent for a moment and then said, "Because… Sophia chose liberal arts."

"That sounds… reasonable. Sophia won the mathematics and chemistry Olympiad. Her science must be amazing," said one reporter.

Then he realized he was off the point. "Well, forget about her. We're just normal people, let's talk about study methods… You know, Sophia won't accept any interviews, and we won't get her way of learning anyway."

Sophia didn't care about her grades. She just took it. Instead, she was more concerned about the grades of Kevin and the other students.

To her relief, their grades were ideal.

Kevin didn't disappoint her. His grades were very high enough for Glinton University. After the summer, he could go to school with Sophia again.

Girls of the Sister Alliance were also admitted to universities, which were not the top universities like Glinton University but pretty good. Their families were surprised by the progress they had made in a year.

Molly got an offer from a foreign university and would study abroad.

Overall, Colin High School got better grades than ever and won a high evaluation. Many good students said that they would go to Colin High School.

Director Bull got excited. He attributed the credit to Sophia. So, he is always @ Sophia on the school's official microblog.

And he called Sophia. "Sophia, I want to talk to you about something. Can you keep your microblog name even when you go to college?"

When Sophia went to college, she was no longer a student at Colin High School. He worried that Sophia would change her microblog name into Sophia Green of Glinton University.

After all, Glinton University sounded much better than Colin High School.

Sophia thought about it and said, "Oh, thanks for reminding me. I forgot about it. I should change a name, right?"

Director Bull was speechless.

Sophia laughed. "I'm joking. Don't worry. I won't change it."

She had twenty million followers. Everyone remembered her as Sophia Green of Colin High School. If she changed the name, her followers might not recognize her.

And… she didn't bother to make a change.

Half a year later, the new energy institute was rebuilt. Sophia took leave from school and returned to work at the academy.

The new chemistry department director happily agreed and said that she could leave as long as she wanted.

He taught Sophia a course and felt so stressed out. The student knew so much more than him that he even doubted about his life.

***

People living near the academy often find a handsome, curly-haired young man going to the academy with a lunch box, rain or shine.

Sometimes, the young man came out with a sweet and lovely girl. Then a happy smile would appear on his face.

After some time, people knew him.

"Oh, you're here, kid."

"You're back from your walk, Martin."

"Yeah. Come on, boy! When I was chasing my wife, I worked harder than you. He sat behind me on the bike. Oh, god! That was a hard time…"

A fat lady beside the man grabbed his ear. "What do you mean? You think I'm fat?"

"Oh, forgive me, honey. Oh, it hurts!"

Albert looked at the couple with some envy.

How many wished for such a sweet life!

He wished for such a good fortune.

It was just that… What if Sophia didn't love him?

He had no confidence in winning her heart.

***

A year later, the new energy project announced its success, creating a worldwide sensation.

At the press conference, Andrew, dressed in a black suit, began by saying, "This achievement… I hope to commemorate the late Professor Green with it."

When hearing that, Sophia, who was sitting on the stage, could not help but turn her eyes to Albert.

Meanwhile, he was looking at her.

They had waited too long for this day.
