1 -1 A Fake Admission Letter_1
In the city of August, the heat is unbearable, the heatwaves rolling.
A cool, handsome young man, about 1.78 meters tall, in a short-sleeved T-shirt and slippers, walked into the Coco Milk Tea Shop outside the Happy Garden Community.
“What will you drink?”
Ding Yue slid smoothly into the seat opposite a thin, spectacled man, shouting at the female clerk, “Miss, a pearl milk tea for this handsome man.”
“Ding Yue, you should have some decency, don’t think that just because you’re handsome, no one will come to beat you up.”
The spectacled man, Huang Youjie, rolled his eyes and took a few sips of his favorite fresh milk purple potato mash.
This man, Huang Youjie, was a high school classmate of Ding Yue, and the two gathered here today to discuss something very important!
“Enough of the chit-chat.”
Ding Yue suddenly turned serious and asked: “Did you bring the stuff?”
borrowed all my sister’s New Year’s Money.” As Ding Yue spoke, he pulled out a card from the Xia Country Commercial Bank from his pocket.
Ding Yue responded, forming a “v” with his fingers.
The money in the bank account was the New Year’s Money that his sister, Ding Xiaoyou, had saved over the years, along with some spending money she earned as an UP owner on Bilibili.
“I sold all my hand models on Xianyu, along with my little skirts, black tube socks, wigs, makeup…all my belongings, and all I have is this six thousand five hundred yuan.”
Huang Youjie wiped the corner of his eye painfully.
He then took out a card from the Xia Country Construction Bank, with all his savings in it.
Ding Yue sighed and reached out, patting him heavily on the shoulder.
The other customers in the milk tea shop, seeing the two men speaking in a mysterious way and behaving secretly, couldn’t help but look at the two men with strange eyes.
They were about to make some dirty deal in this milk tea shop?
“Give me the goods first to verify.”
Ding Yue seemed to be aware of the curious gazes of the nearby customers and quickly put away his bank card.
Huang Youjie, appearing nervous, took out three EMS Postal packages from the black backpack next to him and said, “This is mine, this is yours, and this is Bin’s.”
“Oh right, where’s Bin?”
“Bin is in the Starlight Internet Cafe next door, working on our website with his master, who agreed to only charge us five thousand yuan.”
“A website for 5000 yuan?”
Ding Yue was not very familiar with this and didn’t know whether it was a loss or a gain to use 5000 yuan for a website.
“Bin said the main thing is to rent a server…he can make the website interface himself, and by the way, the website link is www.______.com.”
Ding Yue didn’t ask further about this.
Whether Bin’s computer skill was reliable was not known, but his master’s skill was indeed impressive!
Picking up his EMS postal package, Ding Yue tore it open and took out an admission notice.
The front was a bright red background.
On top was printed, “[School emblem.jpg] Mist City Art and Science University”: Knowledge into Innovation, Carrying Virtue with Diligence, along with a background image of a campus.
The other side was the main content of the admission letter.
[School emblem.jpg] Mist City Arts and Science University
You have been admitted to our school’s ______ Architecture College (Department) _____ Civil Engineering major _____ class.
You are requested to report to the school with this notice.
For details about the time and location, please refer to the “New Student Registration Instructions”.
This admission notice looked quite realistic, and there was also a “New Student Registration Instructions” book in the package.
That’s right, this was a fake admission notice.
As for the Mist City Art and Science University on the admission notice
It was a bogus university name that Ding Yue and his buddies came up with after discussing.
In the education system of Xia Country, there was absolutely no existence of such a college as the Mist City Arts and Science University.
But that’s no big deal.
Once Xu Bin has finished the official website for “Mist City Arts and Science University”, Ding Yue will share the URL with his parents.
Along with this admission letter.
Ding Yue can’t believe that his parents still won’t trust that he got admitted into a top university?
Ding Yue failed his College Entrance Examination this year, with miserable scores.
The most important thing was.
When Ding Yue time-traveled to this parallel world, he discovered that the original owner of this body had cheated, changing his score from less than two hundred to over five hundred, then even sent the doctored screencap of his score to his parents.
This whole act left Ding Yue dumbfounded!
At that time, Ding Yue wanted to retract the message sent to his parents, but it was already over two minutes, so he couldn’t retract it.
Following this, Ding Yue received overwhelming praise from his ecstatic parents.
Something along the lines of, “We didn’t nurture you for eighteen years in vain”, “Our boy didn’t let us down”, “You can definitely get into a top university with over five hundred marks” and so on.
Ding Yue was on the verge of tears.
That would probably infuriate his parents, inviting a mixed double helix spiral flying bamboo shoot stir-fry beating, followed by being dispatched to a construction site to move bricks.
After all, when he was on Earth in his previous life, Ding Yue was a top graduate from a prestigious university.
Now that he has time-traveled to a parallel world, he shouldn’t have to lower himself to being a brick-moving drop-out, right?
Ding Yue quickly thought of an exhilarating solution.
And that is— pretend to make it real!
First of all, as a time-traveler, Ding Yue figured he could pluck some articles and songs from around this parallel world to plagiarize, and somehow make a name for himself, right?
After earning money, he can confess to his parents about his failed College Entrance Examination, by then naturally, they wouldn’t say anything more.
After all, in this day and age, earning money is the “Correct Way”.
Shiny silver coins are the symbol of strength!
People always say that studying changes your destiny, what actually changes your destiny is the knowledge acquired from studying, using the knowledge to earn money.
So Ding Yue thought, why not deceive his parents for the time being, let them believe that he really got into a top university.
In these four years at university, he would have enough time to become rich through plagiarism, right?
With that thought in mind.
Ding Yue happened to discuss this with Huang Youjie and Xu Bin during a barbecue, and the three of them immediately agreed with the plan.
They forged a consensus!
Because Huang Youjie and Xu Bin, just like Ding Yue, had appalling College Entrance Examination results this year.
But it wasn’t easy to hide the failure from parents.
There must be an admission letter, right?
The College Entrance Examination scores could be doctored, but an admission letter can’t be missing, so Ding Yue had Huang Youjie make three fake admission letters.
Then, which university did they get into, the parents should know, right?
There are dozens of universities in Mist City, and even more in University Town, the name “Mist City Arts and Science University” sounds pretty legit.
But for parents who might scour the internet to look up this non-existent university.
Ding Yue had Bin and his mentor set up Mist City Arts and Science University’s official website, making some information on Q&A platforms such as Zhihu and Qian Du about the university, as well as on Qian Du’s encyclopedia.
“Ding Yue, now we have the admission letters, the school website is under construction, but what if my parents want to come with me to register at the university on the first day of school?”
Huang Youjie finished his remaining milk tea in one gulp, then asked worriedly.
“Well…don’t panic, there’s no big problem.”
Ding Yue confidently replied.
Then Ding Yue’s mind flickered, and a virtual panel appeared in front of his eyes——
“[System] Activation Progress: 40％…”
Admission letter (Completed).”
Establishing the university’s official website (In process).”
Finding school location (Not yet completed).”
University registration day (Not yet completed).”
There’s another reason why Ding Yue is insisting on making this fallen examination hoax into reality, it’s because he’s curious to see what kind of a hacker he would unlock after completing these four steps?
