Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Photographic Memory

Being a good student is really not easy, Lin Tian sighed helplessly as he realized he had dared to chat with a beautiful girl during Teacher Fang’s class. She would definitely give him a talking-to after class.

He grabbed his Chinese textbook and started flipping through it. Now he not only had to keep up with the senior year curriculum, but he also had to catch up on the knowledge from the first and second year of high school—it was no easy task. With the college entrance exam just over a month away and time so pressing, Lin Tian felt a headache coming on just thinking about it.

It would be great if he could read ten lines at a glance and remember everything he read, Lin Tian mused whimsically, wondering if using X-ray vision to read would be helpful. Thinking this, he tried to activate X-ray vision to look at the Chinese textbook.

As soon as Lin Tian’s X-ray gaze touched the words on the paper, a buzzing sound resonated in his mind, and then the words rippled like water waves before imprinting themselves into his brain. The content of that page was etched into his memory, crystal clear.

Damn, no way can it work like this! Lin Tian was startled and quickly closed his eyes, trying to recall the text from that page. He remembered it completely, down to the last word, even the punctuation. To confirm he had remembered correctly, Lin Tian carefully compared it with the content in the textbook.

Ahaha, all correct, not a single mistake, Lin Tian roared with excitement in his heart. Memory is a very important part of learning; only after remembering the content can understanding begin.

But Lin Tian himself had a good ability to understand and accept knowledge; otherwise, how could he have become one of Teacher Fang’s good students during his freshman year? Now, combined with his photographic memory, becoming a top student seemed inevitable.

He flipped another page and scanned it using his X-ray vision. As he did, he flipped faster and faster, whipping through the Chinese textbook with a rustling sound. In less than half a class, he had memorized the entire senior year’s second semester Chinese textbook.

Having memorized the whole book, Lin Tian felt no discomfort. Ordinary people would get headaches and feel dizzy after continuous reading, but he felt relaxed and at ease. Lin Tian thought that since he had become a zombie, both his eyes and brain had enhanced capabilities for receiving information.

It was something to look forward to, wondering what other abilities could be developed with his zombie body. In movies and TV, vampires were often pianists and highly knowledgeable—not only because they lived for long but also because their ability to learn must have become incredibly strong.

Speaking of which, do real vampires exist in this world, and how are they different from zombies? Surely, they can’t be as impressive as zombies, can they? Lin Tian’s thoughts wandered farther and farther, and he felt more pleased with himself, not even realizing that drool was dripping down.

"Hey, you jerk, why are you drooling?" Xiao Manxuan suddenly tugged at his clothes and asked in bewilderment.

"Ah, really?" Lin Tian came to his senses and quickly wiped the corner of his mouth. Seeing the little girl’s pretty face so close, he couldn’t help but tease, "I was just thinking about Second Miss here, and I don’t know why, but I started drooling."

The little girl’s cheeks instantly flushed a deep red, the blush spreading from her sparkling earlobes all the way down her neck. She said softly with her head bowed, "You’re so bad, thinking of me and drooling."

Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders and replied with a smile, "Thanks for the compliment, Second Miss."

"Pfft~" A soft giggle came from the other side, and Lin Tian turned his head to see Zhang Lingyu smiling at him. He said, "Classmate Zhang Lingyu, what’s so funny? I’m being serious here," he lied with a straight face and steady heart.

"Hmph, you fool the young girls, but not me. Serious, you say? Your skin is thick," Zhang Lingyu didn’t fall for it, seeing right through Lin Tian’s little trick.

He put on a serious face and said earnestly, "Classmate, that’s not fair of you to say. Who are you calling ’little girls’?"

"You..." Zhang Lingyu was taken aback, but she quickly recovered.

Though she said so, dangerous glints sparkled in her eyes, and it seemed as if purple lightning flashed deep in her pupils.

Ugh, this woman is dangerous, speaking aggressively and with ill-intentioned glances. Ignoring her totally works, right? Lin Tian turned around and stopped paying her any attention.

Suddenly, something flew towards him from the front. Lin Tian, with quick eyes and deft hands, caught it—it was a piece of chalk. A piece of chalk? Who lacks public morality so much they throw chalk around?

"Lin Tian, stand up for me!" Teacher Fang shouted angrily from the podium, pointing at him and saying, "Daydreaming during class, you want to rebel, do you? Recite the text ’The Preface to the Orchid Pavilion’ from this lesson. If you can’t, you’re punished with sweeping the floor for a week."

"Why is Teacher Fang so fierce all of a sudden? I’ve never seen her lose her temper before."

"Who knows, but ’The Preface to the Orchid Pavilion’ was just taught. Who can recite it now? Looks like Lin Tian is in for it again."

A few classmates whispered among themselves.

"In the ninth year of Yonghe, the year of the Gui Chou, at the beginning of late spring, we gathered at the Orchid Pavilion in Huiji Mountain... Those who look upon this in the future will also be moved by this elegance." Lin Tian stood up and rattled it off, reciting the entire text in no time.

Xiao Manxuan was stunned as she listened; she had just memorized the beginning. When had this bad guy memorized the whole thing? Was he really memorizing it while flipping through the book relentlessly?

The senior year Class 1 was a key class with many top students. At this moment, they were also completely impressed by Lin Tian. The ancient prose was full of difficult-to-pronounce particles, and Lin Tian recited it extremely fluently, which was nothing if not admirable.

Teacher Fang on the stage first looked surprised, then gradually a smile appeared on her face, as if she again saw that diligent and studious Lin Tian.

"Ding-a-ling..."

The bell rang for the end of class. Teacher Fang straightened up her teaching materials and announced loudly, "That will be all for today’s class, students can leave, Lin Tian, come out with me."

She had never been one to prolong class. After declaring the class over and calling for Lin Tian, she motioned for him to come out.

Under the shade of the trees, Teacher Fang held her books to her chest and looked straight at Lin Tian, saying, "Lin Tian, what’s going on with you in class, not paying attention?"

"This..." Lin Tian hesitated for a long while, still too embarrassed to say it outright. He surely couldn’t admit he had been flirting with the two most beautiful girls in school.

"You, this child, have you taken a fancy to those two beauties? But how can you be distracted in class? It’s a critical time before college entrance exams, paying attention in class is very important. All three of you, if you want to date, leave it till after school. Study hard, and in the future, when you are capable, you won’t lack anything, right?"

What Teacher Fang said at the start was somewhat acceptable, but then it became more and more preposterous. What did she mean by the three of them dating together? Is there such a thing? Lin Tian scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Teacher Fang, the three of us actually..."

"You don’t have to explain, young people are inexperienced, it’ll get better as you grow up. That’s all, I’m leaving, remember my words." And with that, she really left.

What was all of that about? Lin Tian shook his head and walked back to the classroom. But just as he reached the classroom door, a loud "bang" erupted from inside, followed by a brash voice shouting, "Where’s your classmate Lin Tian? Tell him to come out to me!"
