Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 274

Stunned by the look Elise was giving her, Janice was frightened and quickly said, “I’ll go out with you.”
The two of them walked out until they reached the end of the hallway. Elise stopped and didn’t beat
around the bush but simply said outright, “You were the one who locked me in the toilet yesterday,
right?” When Janice heard this, her expression changed at once. However, she refused to admit it. “I
don’t understand what you’re talking about. I didn’t do such a thing. Elise sneered, “It’s fine if you don’t
admit it. We all know what’s going on here.



I heard that there’s a surveillance camera in the corridor of the conference room, so it must’ve caught
something! Why don’t I go to the counselor right now and ask him to help me check it out? We’ll know
what actually happened then, won’t we?” Janice staggered and almost fell as she stammered, “Y-
You…” After a while, she still didn’t manage a complete sentence. Moreover, because of how nervous
she was, sweat beaded her forehead, and she immediately said, “I-I admit. I did it. I… just wanted to
teach you a lesson. I didn’t intend to do anything else to you.

Besides, aren’t you standing here now?” Elise crossed her arms across her chest, her expression cold.
“So, you admit it!” Then, she pulled out her phone, which showed that a recording was ongoing.
Janice’s face paled upon that sight. “You… you…” Elise pressed the stop button and saved the
recording. “Actually, there’s no surveillance cameras in the hallway. I was just saying that to get you to
confess. But, I guess I have evidence now…” Janice subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab the
phone. “Give it to me.” However, Elise was quicker than her and moved the phone away. “Janice, I
originally thought that you were just a spoiled child and not evil. But, now, I have to revisit my
impression of you.”

“Elise, what do you want?” “Nothing. I just want to let you know that I now have something to use
against you. If you make any moves in the future, I’ll expose the recording to the public.” “Don’t you
dare!” Elise wasn’t afraid. “You can try!” When Janice realized that Elise wasn’t kidding, she pursed her



lips, then finally said, “I won’t do anything anymore. Would you please delete the recording?” Elise was
amenable to persuasion and not force, but she knew that if she deleted the recording, Janice might do
something even worse next time, so she still needed something to suppress her. “I won’t delete the
recording for now. It all depends on you. If you behave well, it’ll never see the light of day.

Of course, if something happens next time—” Before Elise could finish, Janice immediately interrupted,
“There won’t be a next time. I promise. Please don’t publish the recording.” Seeing as Janice was
frightened of her, Elise stopped and didn’t go further. “All right. It’s a deal.” With that, Elise turned and
left a dejected Janice, who felt helpless but had no other choice. Now that Elise had something to use
against her, this was all she could do. After handling Janice, Elise was relieved. At least for a short
period of time, Janice would stop with her antics.

Then, Elise took out her phone and sent a message to Alexander. ’It’s settled. Don’t worry.’ Not long
after, Alexander’s reply came. ‘Okay!’ When Elise saw his message, a small smile appeared on her
face. Then, she placed the phone back in her pocket. … Meanwhile, after Professor Merlin was done
studying Elise’s calculations in his office, he exclaimed, “Genius! What a genius! She’s really a rare
genius, a miracle to the world of mathematics!”

All of Elise’s calculations were clear and justified, and her answers were completely correct. According
to Elise, this was the first time she calculated it, and she had yet to double-check it. Professor Walter
came in carrying a cup of water and saw how excited Professor Merlin was, so he teased, “Merlin,
you’re old, but you’re still as fidgety as a young man.” Professor Merlin looked up at him and said,
“Professor Walter, don’t be so quick to judge me. If you look at these few sheets of paper, you’ll be as
excited as I am.” Professor Walter looked disdained. “As if!”

“I’m serious! You should come and take a look.” Professor Walter walked over, feeling a little
suspicious. “What are you playing at? You’re being so mysterious.” Professor Merlin simply laughed
and spread out the sheets of paper. Professor Walter wanted to reach for it, but Professor Merlin
slapped his hand away. “Don’t touch it. What if you destroy it?” “It’s not that I want to criticize you, but



what is it that you find so precious! You said you want to show it to me, but you’re not letting me hold it.
How am I supposed to look at it, then?” “You can just take a look from here.” Professor Walter grunted
coldly. Although he was somewhat upset, he understood the nature of the old man.

However, when he saw what was on the paper, he was truly shocked. “T-This…” Looking pleased,
Professor Merlin explained, “My student just gave this to me. These are her calculations. I’ve looked it
over. Her answers and the steps are correct.” When he heard this, Professor Walter was no longer
calm. “What are you talking about? She figured it out? How is this possible…” Having said that,
Professor Walter couldn’t help but turn his gaze to the papers again. As he studied it, his eyes were
filled with incredulity. “H-How is this possible! She actually figured it out…” It was worth noting that this
question had left many mathematics scholars and professors helpless. After studying it for a long time,
they still couldn’t solve it.

And yet, a young girl solved it so easily. It was somewhat difficult to accept. The more Professor Walter
looked through the calculations, the more serious his expression became. After he was done, he
experienced the same emotions as Professor Merlin did. “Genius! She’s a genius!” Professor Walter
immediately asked, “How long did it take her?” Professor Merlin answered, “According to my
calculations, it should be three days.

But, strictly speaking, it shouldn’t be that long.” Professor Walter was so shocked that he was at a loss
for words. Many great mathematicians were defeated by this question, but Elise used less than three
days to solve it. Her calculations and answers were even correct. It was a little hard for them, who had
been involved in the world of mathematics for years, to accept.

“We must report this immediately! Save these papers and apply for a patent for Elise! She’s the only
person in the country who has solved this problem. If news of this gets out, it would definitely cause a
great commotion, so this must be carried out quietly…”
