With a swoosh.

Time flies fast, and another six days have passed.

Today is the Tuesday of the ninth week of the semester, clear and sunny.

Link is in a good mood.

Just yesterday evening, the first two experiments in the scheme had finally finished.

The long-awaited data from Ding’s group (problem seed, no additives, natural germination) was also collected.

Link immediately filled the data into the already written “thesis”, checked it many times, and confirmed that there were no problems.

As for the third experiment, it just had no conditions to continue.

The greenhouse simulation equipment is limited in space, and it is very valuable to support six groups in germination experiments.

What more could you expect from a second-hand product that cost two standard first-level Magic Stones?

If Link wants to continue the third experiment, the most appropriate place is the Third Botanical Garden.

Unfortunately, he only works part-time there and does not conduct research there.

However, Link wrote his speculation that the new germination method might have a positive impact on the breeding rate of Silver Star flowers in the analysis and discussion section of the “thesis”.

Of course, he only mentioned it simply and did not involve it too much.

This morning, once the college “thesis” review office began accepting submissions, Link operated his personal smart brain, entered the “thesis publication” page through a few hidden links, and published the “thesis”.

Soon, Link received a reply:

“Link Grande, your thesis has been received, please wait patiently for the review. The review result will be promptly notified to you.”

Then Link ignored it and concentrated on his classes.

However, at the conclusion of the first major class, an unexpected event occurred.

Link received a notification from the “thesis” review office that he needed to answer some questions about the “thesis”.

This seemed a bit strange to Link.

According to the normal process, the “thesis” generally has three review results, revision, acceptance, and rejection.

Only when it involves academic ethics are the authors of the “thesis” required to be questioned.

Link is confident that he has neither plagiarized nor copied, his mind is very stable, he is not panicking at all.

After finishing the second major class with ease, Link informed Jasmine of the general situation and then rushed to the Administrative Building where the “thesis” review office was located.

After enrollment, Link has only passed by this building a few times and has never entered.

The fifth floor, “Thesis” Review Office.

The door was wide open.

Link knocked on the door and waited to hear a voice saying “come in” before entering the office.

He glanced up and found that the person sitting behind the desk was someone he knew. No wonder he was thinking he had heard her voice somewhere.

He couldn’t help but exclaim: “Wizard Palo?”

Before the test of wizard qualifications, Link sneaked a peek at Wizard Palo but he couldn’t see her face at all.

Only after passing the test and becoming a New Blood did Link get a clear look at Wizard Palo.

It has been more than two months since they parted ways when the ship “White Sail” entered the harbor.

With the Wizard World being so vast, Link thought he would never see her again.

Unexpectedly, they met again today. What a destiny!

“Hmm.”

Wizard Palo still maintained an uncommunicative demeanor, answered briefly, and got to the point, “Link Grande, did you complete your ‘thesis’ independently without plagiarism or copying?”

After a slight pause, perhaps considering that Link was one of the New Bloods he brought to the main continent, Wizard Palo reminded, “It’s not terrible to make mistakes. Honesty is very important.”

“Thank you for your reminder, Wizard Palo.”

Link, who is not an ungrateful person, promptly expressed his thanks, and then explained,

“The new germination method for Silver Star flowers was developed by me alone. After further experiments and obtaining the data, I wrote the ‘thesis’ by myself. I have sufficient evidence to support it and can take responsibility for my statements.”

“In the introduction of your ‘thesis’, you mentioned that when you were part-time working in the Third Botanical Garden, you were responsible for germinating a batch of Silver Star flower seeds. Because there was no specific method of germination, you developed it yourself. Is this the real situation?” Wizard Palo asked again, seemingly confirming something.

“It’s the truth. I didn’t exaggerate, nor did I besmirch anyone.”

Link didn’t fully understand the underlying meaning, so he thought about it and responded this way.

“Good.”

Wizard Palo hinted at the direction of the door with his eyes, “You wait outside first. If necessary, you need to provide relevant evidence.”

“Yes, Wizard Palo.”

Link agreed briskly, took a step back, then turned and left the room.

Outside the office.

Link ran into a familiar stranger, Sophie Lucia.

“As I thought!”

With a secret sigh, Link’s first reaction when he received the notification was that Sophie Lucia had somehow messed up.

Now it confirmed that Link guessed right, but he didn’t feel happy at all.

An originally smooth course of action had unnecessarily added a lot of trouble.

By coincidence.

Sophie Lucia was very surprised to see Link too.

“What are you doing here?”

Sophie and Link looked at each other, and she suddenly asked.

“I’m here to answer some ‘thesis’ related questions.”

There was nothing to hide, Link did not be evasive, and stated directly.

This was an unexpected answer for Sophie, which greatly surprised her.

Because she was also called here to be questioned.

Just last night, Sophie’s new round of experiments had results.

So this morning, she published her meticulously prepared “thesis”.

But Sophie always thought that some other aspect had problems.

For example, she might have triggered some mechanisms of the Tower Spirit in the Third Botanical Garden’s Intelligent Management Center.

The Tower Spirit would record all of Link Grande’s operations during his part-time work at the Third Botanical Garden, including the new germination method for Silver Star flowers.

She had once used the authority of the Deputy Director to view Link Grande’s work log through the Tower Spirit.

If the “thesis” review office requested the related records and data of Sophie’s “thesis” and experiments from the Tower Spirit, the Tower Spirit could possibly bundle and send Link Grande’s work records together.

Sophie never expected that she was called for questioning, not because of the Tower Spirit, but because of this hillbilly Link Grande.

When had a hillbilly who hadn’t been in school for three months been able to independently figure out the relevant rules before he had even taken the entire set of courses on research, experiments, “theses”, “patents”?

This was simply outrageous!

In Link, Sophie seemed to see the shadows of several top-tier prodigies in the North District who were dazzling and far ahead of their peers in many respects.

With a sense of indescribable emotion, Sophie Lucia went into the review office with a cold face.

In the face of a series of inquiries from Wizard Palo, Sophie did not dare to conceal or lie, and told the whole story.

“Link Grande, come in.”

After hearing the statements of the two and comparing the records of the Third Botanical Garden, Wizard Palo had made a judgment in his mind.

He was ready to cut the Gordian knot and settle this matter..
