Chapter 117 - 117: I Just Love My Goddess KAP

Molly knew that 'Knowing A Person' was Sophia's account. Seeing the news, she got upset at once.

It was a malicious defamation.

Sophia had paid attention to some blog topics recently. Many people suffered libel maliciously on the Internet. She had never considered herself a web celebrity, nor did she imagined that someone would slander her someday.

She read the article and probably understood the whole thing.

The article was issued by someone named "Amelia of the World Sudoku Competition Contestant," who was ranked nineteenth among the World Sudoku Competition players. She pointed out that the sudoku puzzle in the blog of "Knowing A Person" was a high-level standard sudoku puzzle. It was very difficult. Even at her level, it would take at least four minutes to solve it.

But from the asking of" A Running Fish" to the reply of "Knowing A Person," there were just four minutes between, which also included the time for her typing and tweeting. In other words, she solved the high-level standard sudoku puzzle in less than four minutes.

How could that be? It was insane!

Thus, Amelia believed that "Knowing A Person" and" A Running Fish" were in collusion. KAP knew the answer in advance so that she could give out the answer in less than four minutes.

She even suspected that "Knowing A Person" knew nothing about Sudoku, and it was a marketing account hyped by the online ghostwriters.

Some malicious netizens took the opportunity to start questioning that the performance of KAP in the International Chess Competition was also fake. Most people did not understand the game but just listened to the explanation of some people claiming to know it.

Rumors like "' M378' were the World Chess champion Mitch Watson" had never been confirmed. It was KAP who employed the online ghostwriters to make these gimmicks. 

Several experts in education also tweet to accuse KAP of the tendency to lead students away from their studies. After all, it was an examination-oriented education. If students indulged in playing sudoku puzzles, how could they improve their academic performance? It would delay their studies and finally bring a bad impact on students themselves.

Some even suspected that the story of stray dog Mitch in KAP's blog was also made up to deceive people. There was no Mitch at all.

Seeing that, Sophia was stunned.

People might think she had posted some anti-social and anti-human tweets.

She just answered a kid's question, that was all.

Of course, there was still a lot of support for KAP on the Internet, and they refuted rumors on the Internet.

"My goddess is amazing. She knows Sudoku. What's wrong with that? You think you are the only ones who can do Sudoku, do you?"

"There is no Mitch? Are you blind?"

"Playing Sudoku can delay studies? That's ridiculous. Why don't you say that eating can delay studies?"

"To attract people's attention by belittling others. What a shame!"

"Amelia wants to get popular. I'm sorry, I have no interest in Sudoku, I just love my goddess KAP."

***

"A Running Fish" was aggrieved to say that even he didn't know he was an Internet ghostwriter. He was just a sixth-grade student.

Molly was very angry, "You should tell them that you won first place in the Mathematical Olympiad to piss them off. This Amelia is really disgusting. Just because she can't do something, she thinks you can't make it. Is she God?"

Sophia was pretty calm. "I don't care what these people say on the Internet. They don't know me anyway. They don't like me. I can't do anything about it. I don't need everyone to like me…"

The onlooker Louie did not know what had happened until Molly explained it to him. He got upset, "Why is there such a person? If Mitch doesn't exist, did I feed the dog my jerky? No… He is a dog. That's not the point. You just tweet a few pictures of Mitch on the Internet. Did that offend these people? They want to be famous. Can't they rely on their own efforts? Why this way? "

He picked up his phone and said, "No, I have to defend you."

"Forget about it. Those people can't affect our real life," Sophia said, "whatever."

"I just can't stand it. Leave me alone, boss. I have to scold back. Otherwise, I can't fall asleep at night," refused Louie.

"Yeah, me too. It's a pity that Sophia won't tell her identity, otherwise... Humph, the first place in the Mathematical Olympiad can slam the face of Amelia," said Molly.

Sophia couldn't do anything about it but to let them be.

Kevin came to school this day. He basically got rid of the impact of the kidnapping and seemed very energetic.

After school, Kevin went to Sophia. After hesitating for a moment, he seemed to have made a decision and said, "Sister, I… Can I ask you something?"

"Go ahead."

"I… Recently, I heard that Adam lives difficult. His mother sold the facial mask online but was cheated and lost almost all the savings. After this kidnapping, his mother will definitely go to jail, and he will have no source of income. I think…" Kevin bowed his head and dared not look at Sophia, "I'd like to give him some money, can I?"

Sophia smiled, "Why not? It's up to you. You don't need to ask me."

She knew Kevin was kind-hearted. No matter what, he was Adam's brother and couldn't just watch Adam get into trouble.

Kevin looked up and smiled, "I knew you were the best. Here is my credit card. Can you withdraw five thousand dollars and give it to Adam for me later? That should be enough to support him until his mother gets out. I'm a resident. It's troublesome to ask for leave at noon."

"Yeah." Sophia took over the credit card and nodded.

Sophia went to the bank, drew five thousand dollars in cash and put it into her school bag. Then she realized something… Why didn't she ask Kevin the password of his card? Would it arouse his suspicions?

Kevin's phone should be prompted after the money was withdrawn. If she asked him now… Was it a little late?

Then she remembered that Kevin had told her when he was kidnapped that the password was his birthday, which was a reasonable excuse.

Well, she could tell him that she had looked up his birthday for the ransom.

She carried her bag on her back and rode home. The bank was in the opposite direction of her house. An alley was in front of the bank. 

It would be faster to get home to go through the alley. 

Though carrying the "vast sums," Sophia was confident about herself. Besides, it was daytime, and she didn't feel insecure.

Just as she rode into the alley, she heard some noise coming from the front.

"What are you doing?" A boy screamed.

Then came another boy's smirk, "Boy, lend us some money. You can't blame us. You, a student from Colin, dare to come to our school territory…"

And then, there was a voice that Sophia was familiar with.

"Give me money. Or I'll kick your ass."

It was from Adam!

Sophia sped up. When she turned around the alley, she saw several boys surrounding one boy, who was in Colin High School uniform, seemed scared but unwilling to be robbed.

She had met the boy but did not know his name. He seemed to be one of the examiners in the Mathematical Olympiad trials. Besides, she had seen him at the pet store.

Sophia stepped forward, stopped her bike, and looked at the boys. "You guys… Why are you bullying him?"

Adam saw Sophia step back, cowardly.

One boy was arrogant, "Who are you? Are you from Colin? You little girl dare to mind our business. You want to get yourself in trouble? You look cute, how about…"

The boy who was surrounded was Kurt. He looked at Sophia in disbelief.

Why did she help him? Shouldn't she hate him? It was a blessing for him if she didn't beat him.

Adam pulled the boy and whispered, "She is actually…"

The boy got rid of Adam impatiently. "I don't care who she is. You think I'm gonna be scared by a little girl?"

Several other boys probably recognized Sophia, and one of them patted the boy on the shoulder and said in a trembling voice, "She seems to be…"

The leading boy ignored him and paced to Sophia with an obscene smile, "Let's hang out, okay?"

Then he stretched out his hands to Sophia…

Adam retreated with several other boys. One timid boy closed his eyes and could not bear to look at the terrible scene that followed.

Bang!

The boy flew out and crashed into a wall.

Other boys started to beg for mercy, "Boss, forgive us, please. We will never mess with anyone in Collin. We swear!"

Sophia frowned and said, "You can't mess with anyone in Collin, and you can never rob others' money. Do you understand? It's illegal."

"Yes. Yes." They gave me a quick answer.

Then Sophia allowed them to go. However, "Adam, I want to talk with you about something," she stopped Adam.

Adam shrank his head in fear and dared not leave. The other boys dispersed without saying anything in an instant.

Kurt grew now pale, now red. Sophia had just won first place in the Mathematical Olympiad, and he knew he would never beat her in math.

Sophia must have saved him from humiliating him.

It was a great shame for him to be saved by his rival. He would rather she had not saved him than he had been robbed.

Without a word, he patted the dirt on him and walked back.

Even Adam was unhappy about his rudeness, but he dared not say anything.

"Wait!" Sophia called him.

He stopped and sneered in his heart.

She was really going to humiliate him, did she?

"Here, you dropped your phone," she said.

Kurt stayed, bent down to pick up his phone, and looked back. "You… Don't you know me?"

Sophia smiled, "I met you before, but I don't know your name. Thank you for the dog food you recommended last time. Mitch loves it."

Kurt was stunned.

She didn't even know him!

And he had been thinking of her as an enemy, wondering what she would do to him every day. However, she never noticed him, and she didn't even know who he was.

He suddenly felt so aggrieved and wanted to cry. What should he do?
