People were still fighting in the comment section while the high-school teacher was marking the paper.
[Josephine must be the one who's telling the truth since she was the one who handed in her paper first!]
[Yeah! Corinne looks like she only handed in her paper because she started to panic after Josephine handed in hers.]
[So what if she handed in her paper too? The most important thing is to get the answers right.]
[Look, everyone. Corinne's slumping her head on the table. Is she sleeping?! Is this all a joke to her?]
[I have a classmate exactly like her. He always scores the worst in all of our tests. The only thing he knows how to do is to sleep in class. You can't blame us for thinking Corinne is the one who's lying!]
[Y'all must've not met a real straight-A student. Don't you know they're not the nerds we think they are? A real straight A-student is the type of person who can sleep through the class and still get really good grades!]
[Haha! As if! I'll never believe there's actually someone like that in the world! This is real life we're talking about, not a movie.]
[Well, if you went to the same university as her like I did, you'd know her life is kinda like a movie. Plus, you not having met someone like that doesn't mean they don't exist. In fact, that's saying more about you than her, so why don't you broaden your horizon a little, eh?]
[Yeah, yeah. Next, you're going to say only those who studied at the University of New Capital City have the broadest horizon in the world! Well, I hope you can still be as cocky as this after the result comes out!]
[Hey, I think the teacher has finished marking the paper. That means they're going to announce the result soon!]
[I can't wait! Josephine will win for sure!]
…
"That's what I think, too…"
The comment section exploded again.
[What the hell? They both got perfect scores? How are we supposed to know who was telling the truth then?]
[It's Josephine, of course! I mean, she had been farming for the last few years, yet she still could get a perfect score. Doesn't that just prove as much?]
[Yeah! Corinne must've gotten up to speed with high school material after she got into the University of New Capital City, the best university in the country! It's not surprising she'll get a perfect score.]
[Oh my god! You guys are obviously playing favorites! I mean, Corinne gets a perfect score and it doesn't prove anything, but Josephine gets a perfect score and she's the one telling the truth? Double standard much?]
