Chapter 42

"What about the others? Any other students in particular who stand out to you?" The other math teachers all shook their heads. This puzzled the principal. He reasoned that those who had called him must have heard something. One or two callers could make a mistake, but the flurry of calls over several days suggested something more. Yet now, even after summoning all the math teachers, he had no clue who it could be. "Principal, are you asking us this because our school did exceptionally well this time?" The principal pursed his lips with a concerned look, "I don't know, but I have a feeling that our school might have done well. How many days until the Math Olympiad results are out?" "Another two or three days." "Then let's wait for the results. Everything will become clear, and I hope it will be good news that makes everyone happy." The teachers exchanged smiles, not taking the principal's words to heart. They knew their students well and didn't pay much attention to the matter.
