"What did you do to Miyako?"

In the photo, Miyako looks up at the sky, riding a white horse that gallops rapidly across a wooden bridge. If you look closely from the air, it seems as if a large dark shadow is looming over the direction Miyako is traveling.

"No, it's just to protect her safety. Don't worry, she's safe with you here. Okay, I've told you so much, I have some things to take care of. Now I'm just waiting for you to go to the 22nd Century Department Store and pick up what we wanted to give you."

The shadowy figure in front of Nobita spoke calmly and indifferently. Before he finished speaking, the black hole shrank considerably and disappeared into the forest in the blink of an eye.

Watching the black hole disappear in an instant, Nobita was completely dumbfounded. This villain really had a personality, disappearing without a second thought, completely disregarding Nobita's feelings. He was too self-centered.

However, it is precisely because of this style that Nobita cannot figure out this enemy who understands him in every way. He is able to use Miyako to completely control him and force him to come into contact with that dream machine from the 22nd century.

The thought of how the whole thing was going on made Nobita's scalp tingle. The situation was now out of his control, and he could only wait until after the Japan-US exchange match to think of a solution.

After cleaning up the traces of the battle with Ashley's shadow in the woods, Nobita followed the path back into the International Sports Center. Miyako wanted him to go and rescue her. Nobita didn't want to miss this competition that could make him famous and establish his status in Japanese society. Because of this strange bird, Nobita had already lost points in the second event, and the situation in the upcoming competition would be even more severe for him.

Quietly walking backstage, Da Xiong stood in a corner and saw that the second competition was already in its second half. The scores of the first competition were already displayed on the large screens in front of their seats. Sure enough, the score for the first event on Da Xiong's screen was a perfect score of 1000. Lisa's score for the first event was as high as 990, which was the highest score in the history of this event. Unfortunately, she met Da Xiong, a prodigy who was playing like a cheat code. However, what surprised Da Xiong was that Sarkozy, who was diagonally opposite him, also had a perfect score of 1000. This made Da Xiong curious about Sarkozy.

"Huh? Nobita, when did you get back?!"

While remotely directing the second project from backstage, Mitsui Eibu, the general manager, was inspecting the backstage area when he suddenly saw Nobita returning. He immediately ran towards Nobita's location, ignoring everyone's gaze.

In the first event, apart from Nobita getting a perfect score, the entire Japanese team was simply pathetic. Not a single person scored over 900 points, and they were completely crushed by the American team. This infuriated Aoi Teng, the vice governor of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, who was watching the game live. He cursed Mitsui and Kuroki as idiots and trash, saying they were a disgrace to the country.

No wonder Aoi Teng was angry. The entire Japanese team's score hovered around 600 or 700, with few scoring over 800, let alone 900. In contrast, the American team's overall score ranged between 700 and 800, with more than a dozen players in the 900 range. Their skill level completely overwhelmed the Japanese team by a whole major score range.

Seeing such results, none of the Japanese present could accept that their country's genius had been humiliated by others, let alone the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, which had placed great hopes on this competition. This competition not only failed to restore Japan's glory on the world stage, but also made Japan unable to hold its head high internationally. Such a large country was bullied into a complete rout.

After being scolded by Aoi Teng, Mitsui's team and Kuroki's group rushed backstage to maintain order and the pace of the match. The decline of the entire Japanese team was obvious to everyone. Now, they could only hope that Nobita Nobi, who was absent from the second match, could save the day. If Nobita Nobi could win and suppress the momentum of the American team, Japan could at least save face and even use Nobita to promote its reputation. Everything now rested on Nobita's shoulders.

"I just got back and saw the results of the first project. I didn't expect the Japanese team to lose to the American team by such a large margin." Even Da Xiong was surprised that the geniuses that Mitsui and Kuroki had found all over Japan were so much weaker than the American team. It seems that the overall strength of a country's talent pool is closely related to its level of economic development.

Nobita's direct words made Mitsui's team feel utterly ashamed. Besides finding that perverted Nobita, the responsibility for the entire Japanese team's defeat in this competition would likely fall entirely on him after the match. Obviously, the consequences wouldn't be good either; the simplest estimate would be his dismissal from the Ministry of Education.

However, now that he has seen Nobita Nobi already on the field, he remembers the shock he felt when he first met Nobita Nobi and how Nobita crushed everyone in the first event in just five minutes. Mitsui's team has rekindled his hope. Only if Nobita plays his card well can he save his career.

"I didn't expect it either. All the geniuses in Japan have been wiped out. Now we are so far behind the US team. It's up to you to turn the tide."

Mitsui's entourage bowed slightly, his head almost touching Nobita's face, displaying a humble and respectful demeanor.

"I would have come back even if you hadn't told me, because this match is the best stage for Nobita to prove himself!"

Chapter Nineteen: A Clown

"I would have come back even if you hadn't said anything. This competition is such a great stage, it just happens to be missing a protagonist like me!"

The first event, where the Japanese team was outmatched by the American team, made the entire nation of Japan aware of the true strength of their country's geniuses. At this point, if someone were to stand out and dominate the entire field, they would definitely attract a lot of attention. Nobita's goal is to make the entire nation of Japan take his position seriously, so that he can have a greater impact on the country and even the entire planet in the future. After all, sometimes, Nobita cannot change everything by himself. If he has the support of an entire planet, his chances of winning will increase significantly. Therefore, Nobita needs and hopes to gain a social status that everyone can recognize.

Time flies. Not long after Nobita returned to the arena, the second event, the binary number memory competition, also came to an end. This event was composed of repeated combinations of the numbers 1 and 0, for example: **110.

The principle of memorizing binary numbers is basically the same as that of memorizing Arabic numerals, except that there is an extra step: converting the binary numbers into Arabic numerals before memorizing them.

Since binary numbers only have two digits, 0 and 1, when we memorize these two numbers, we treat them as codes, with consecutive 1s as the tens digit and consecutive 0s as the units digit. This way, we can convert binary numbers into Arabic numerals for memorization. Each binary number has its own conversion method.

Therefore, this competition not only tested the contestants' memory ability, but also their ability to process complex memories and their memory level. The difficulty level far exceeded that of the first project's abstract image memory, stumping a large number of people on the field. In this competition, the Japanese team and the American team were just right, and the scores of the two countries gradually became average.

However, from an individual perspective, the United States still has the edge. What caught Da Xiong's attention in this competition was that Lisa scored a high score of 995 points, which was simply amazing, except for a few questions she got wrong.

Sarkozy's score in this round was obviously not as outrageous as his perfect score in the first round. Although it wasn't high, it still reached an extremely high score of 994 points. He didn't get more than five questions wrong. His exceptional talent shocked the Japanese and Americans present.

"Sarkozy, Sarkozy, Sarkozy..."

The scores from the second round were displayed directly on the electronic screen in front of the contestants. Sarkozy's first-place finish in 1994 caused the audience to erupt in cheers. Girls dressed as cheerleaders held up pom-poms and shouted their hearts out for Sarkozy, the blond-haired intellectual prince.

Cameras from every corner were pointed at him, and countless eyes were now focused on him, including Nobita's.

Although Sarkozy's face was badly stomped on by Nobita under the spotlight, he recovered considerably after a night of emergency treatment. He even had professional makeup done before the competition. After two rounds of fierce competition, Sarkozy, who ranked first and possessed both excellent looks and high intelligence, became a star of the entire event.

"Hahahaha, this is the glory that only I, Sarkozy, should enjoy. Nobita Nobi is not worthy to be compared with me!"

Holding the flowers presented by an unknown girl in his arms, Sarkozy stood on the platform, beaming with pride as he enjoyed the cheers from the crowd and the admiring gazes of everyone. He knew this was the peak of his life; Nobita Nobi, that guy who skipped the competition, was not worthy of being his opponent. He was the biggest winner of the day.

"Hmph, what a clown he is."

Sarkozy stood on his seat, flirtatiously tossing his golden curls, which immediately caused a series of screams from the girls who were about to faint. They blew kisses one after another without restraint. At this moment, Sarkozy did not look like a contestant in an intellectual competition at all, but rather like a world-famous star, showing off his style and demeanor.

However, from afar, Nobita could be seen with Sarkozy's piercing gaze. A spiritual force had already permeated every corner of the arena when Nobita entered the backstage area. Every contestant's answer, their expression when facing a difficult problem, and even their heartbeat—anything Nobita wanted to know, all entered Nobita's mind.

It was precisely because of this that Nobita discovered Sarkozy's unusual nature. Compared to ordinary people, Sarkozy's heart rate and blood flow were more than twice that of ordinary people when he was doing problems. This further promoted blood circulation in his brain, and the most direct effect was to forcibly improve his memory.

Sarkozy exhibited the unusual behavior that Da Xiong noticed, and within the US team, only Sarkozy displayed this condition. It seems that Sarkozy's current state is likely due to the stimulation of some unknown drug, otherwise he wouldn't be able to defy the odds and achieve perfect scores or scores infinitely close to perfect in both games.

The scores for the second match have been announced, and many things are now settled. According to the instructions of the Mitsui camp, the third item of this match will follow the second match: name and face recognition. This kind of memory puzzle is somewhat similar to the first type of memory pattern, but it is different from the first type and has reached another level of difficulty.

Quietly awaiting the start of the third match, Da Xiong walked from backstage to his seat. However, before he even reached his seat, Sarkozy, who was sitting next to him, turned around at some point and said in an unfriendly tone, "I didn't expect you to participate in the third match. You really don't know your place. With your current score, you're more than 900 points behind us. Do you think you can still win? I think you should just fulfill your bet as soon as possible and not lose face while there are fewer people around."

Sarkozy reminded Da Xiong of the bet the two had made during the match: if one of them lost, he would have to kneel down and apologize to the other, or even humiliatingly crawl between his legs.

"Come on, come on, my crotch is already prepared for you." Sarkozy spread his legs wide, put his hands on his hips, and looked arrogant, just like when he first met Nobita. He had obviously forgotten the lesson Nobita had taught him, and he was floating on air.

"Sarkozy, you bastard!" Lisa wasn't far from the two of them. She didn't know why Da Xiong hadn't participated in the second match, but Sarkozy's aggressive attitude immediately angered her.

Chapter Twenty: Terrifying Strength

"Lisa, the results are obvious now. The Japanese team can no longer surpass our American team, and there can only be one champion, and that is me, Sarkozy. Lisa, you can win the runner-up position based on your accumulated results. As for Nobita, he probably won't even make the top ten."

Sarkozy stood in the middle of the crowd, his expression full of disdain, his face showing indifference, as if he himself would be standing on the final podium the next second, and Nobita's existence was nothing to him.

"Get lost, or I'll beat you up the same way I beat you up earlier." Sarkozy's increasingly arrogant words enraged Da Xiong. This American spoiled brat was like a cockroach; if you didn't swat him dead, he would keep coming back to disgust you.

"Hmph, we'll find out when the results are in. You can pretend to be calm for now." Sarkozy still remembered being kicked by Da Xiong. Da Xiong's swinging left foot immediately triggered a nerve in Sarkozy. Instantly, Sarkozy ran and jumped a long way away, standing at a distance and talking.

"Lisa, I'm sorry to have worried you." After kicking Sarkozy away, Da Xiong walked to Lisa's side with his head down and whispered to her.

"How could you be so foolish as to make this bet with him? What if you—..."

As Sarkozy's former rival, Lisa originally thought she could overpower Sarkozy in this competition and help Nobita dampen Sarkozy's enthusiasm. Unexpectedly, Nobita did not participate in the second event for some reason, which made Lisa worry about Nobita. She did not want Nobita to lose face and dignity because of losing the competition.

"Lisa, don't worry about me. Just like you know me now, I'm good at creating miracles. Let me create a surprise for you!" Nobita shook his head with a slight smile on his lips. He already had a plan for this competition in mind. Otherwise, he wouldn't have rashly run away without participating in the second event. Nobita never does anything he's not sure of.

The third event took place an hour after the introduction of the second event. It is worth mentioning the severity of this competition. After two high-intensity competitions, there will be a third and fourth competition with even greater difficulty. Each of these events will test and hone the memory and willpower of every participant.

The game bell rang, and Lisa returned to her seat with a touch of melancholy, her mind filled with thoughts of Nobita.

The third project is a relatively traditional memory project. You just need to remember the corresponding names and pictures. During the competition, the staff will give you 20 cards with photos of different people. Each card has 10 different people's pictures, and below the pictures is the person's name. What's tricky about the competition is that it uses the names of people from both Arabic and English-speaking countries to connect the images.

Arabic names can be dozens of characters long. In some competitions, even family photos were used, with names differing by only a few characters, instantly increasing the difficulty. In contrast, English-speaking countries have more uniform surnames, and given names are often very similar. To memorize each name corresponding to each photo, you need an exceptionally high level of memory to handle the challenge of this competition.

Twenty cards were distributed to each person, and the memorization time for this competition was only 15 minutes. Within 15 minutes, each person had to memorize 200 different faces and names in order to increase their score. The total score for this competition reached as high as 2000, which can be considered a watershed moment in the entire competition.

Nobita received the card and realized that the third event was indeed difficult for many people. Even Sarkozy, who had been so arrogant in front of him before, was now serious and carefully memorizing the information on the card. Lisa, on the other hand, seemed to be lost in thought, which worried Nobita. He was afraid that Lisa's thoughts would delay the progress of the competition and affect her performance.

Fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye. The staff immediately removed the memory cards from everyone's seats, and then different types of memory cards were handed out to everyone. Only when they received the memory cards did this silent battle truly begin.

From the moment they received the memory cards, everyone's hands seemed to be on accelerators, frantically writing something on the cards.

0 ······Requesting flowers····· ·····

As Nobita received the card, his confident smile was evident. His hand continued writing on the memory card without stopping, and to the onlookers, he didn't even glance at it. The characters on the memory card increased at an astonishing speed of several per second, startling everyone who was watching Nobita.

Because of Ashley and Miyako's situation, Nobita missed the second event and lost 1500 points. He must win back every single one of the 2000 points in the third event to gain an advantage in the subsequent events. If he wants to crush Sarkozy and the others to win the championship, he needs to score incredible points in every event to have any chance of winning.

......... ...... ...

In less than three minutes, the answer sheet in Nobita's hand was filled with different characters under the portraits of 200 people. There were English characters as well as other fancy symbols. What was terrifying was that Nobita didn't stop after writing the names of the test takers. He actually wrote other versions of these names in other languages ​​under the names, including Chinese, Japanese, and French. There were probably no fewer than eight languages ​​in total.

"Report: The paper is handed in."

Nobita gently put down the pen in his hand, waved his arm towards the staff monitoring the competition not far away, indicating that he had finished his part of the competition and asked the staff to collect his memory card.

"Hmm, how come Nobita is so fast again?"

Sitting on the podium, Aoi Teng learned from Mitsui's camp and Kuroki Chuuni that Nobita had returned. His nerves immediately went to Nobita. In his opinion, only Nobita, the top contender, could save this weak competition. However, to his surprise, Nobita had already finished answering the questions just over three minutes into the competition, which made his heart jump.

"He finished the match in three minutes? Is he even a normal person?!" (Death)

Chapter Twenty-One: A Stunning Brilliance and Decisive Decision

Yuexi Forum; https://bbs.wcccc.cc/ Nobita's almost inhuman speed shocked many of his followers. His memory and speed in answering questions were probably faster than even a high-end computer at this time, making him a veritable humanoid self-propelled brain.

"Mitsui, Nobita finished the competition in just three minutes. How confident do you think he is in winning this third event?" Aoi Teng stared intently at Nobita, his heart filled with a mixture of curiosity and confusion.

"Probably one hundred percent. Since I met Nobita Nobi, he has never done anything he wasn't confident about. And if he was confident, he would definitely do it perfectly. This boy is much more mature than we imagined."

From the moment Mitsui met Nobita, he had absolute confidence in this boy who had his own independent thoughts and was so mature that he was unbelievable. Nobita's way of doing things was something that ordinary boys could not compare to.

"One hundred percent, huh? According to you, this is quite an interesting boy." Aoi Teng squinted and looked Nobita up and down on the field. He seemed to be thinking about something, but judging from his beaming face, he was probably very happy with Nobita.

"He is indeed an interesting young man, Governor Aoi. Keep an eye on the upcoming matches. Nobita Nobi should bring us some unexpected surprises." Mitsui, head bowed and leaning forward, said confidently to Aoi Teng.

"Haha, I hope that, as you say, this young man can bring us a surprise. If so, I will present him with a great gift on behalf of the Ministry of Education."

Throughout the entire match between the Japanese team and the United States, Japan was completely dominated by the United States. If Nobita Nobi could pull off a remarkable comeback, he would undoubtedly become a hero in Japan. With the help of the Ministry of Education, he could immediately become a benchmark in the Japanese education system and be known to the world.

Inside the venue, the staff were quite surprised when they received Da Xiong's message. Da Xiong had submitted his paper in just a few minutes for the first project, and he was the only student to ask for leave for the second project. He also submitted his paper so early for the third project. It was hard for the staff not to remember Da Xiong; he was just too unique.

After Nobita's memory card was collected, according to the competition rules, Nobita's memory card was immediately scored by the computer, and the score for this event was directly calculated. While everyone was racking their brains to recall and answer questions, Nobita's memory card had already entered the final scoring stage.

,『.灵.,珑;』?.8'5:'6.?1.0:9;7.8!'2" “这怎么可能,又是满分!”

In less than a minute, the computer specially set up for this competition calculated the score of Nobita's third project memory card. The red mark of two thousand points was vividly printed on Nobita's memory card. The staff who received the score were also completely shocked by Nobita. In just five minutes, Nobita had already accomplished a godlike feat.

Nobita scored a perfect 2,000 points on the third project without missing a single one. The fact that Nobita's test paper contained several different languages ​​also highlighted his uniqueness. The staff couldn't believe how he could accomplish so much in just three minutes. Was it really possible for a human to do that?

After the scores were tallied, the staff immediately handed over Nobita's score and memory card. When Mitsui received Nobita's memory card, he couldn't help but smile. This Nobita hadn't disappointed him at all. This incredible score was proof of his judgment from the beginning.

"Governor, look, Nobita Nobi certainly didn't disappoint us." Mitsui handed over the memory card he had just reviewed to the Mitsui officer sitting next to him.

"Haha, Mitsui, you have a good eye. It seems that Nobita Nobi is our biggest gain in this competition. Notify the Ministry of Culture's Publicity Department that we can start to promote this competition in depth, and focus on Nobita Nobi."

As the second-in-command of the Ministry of Education after the governor, Aoi Teng was already capable of making many decisions. This competition was an event he was in charge of, and Nobita Nobi's appearance gave him hope of completing it. Therefore, he spared no effort in promoting Nobita, mobilizing the entire nation's resources to make Nobita shine even brighter...

The scores for the competition have already been entered into the system and will only be announced after everyone has finished the competition. Announcing them too early or too late will have unpredictable effects on the contestants. With fifteen minutes to memorize and thirty minutes to answer questions, the competition will last less than an hour from start to finish until the scores are announced.

While Nobita was resting and recuperating, most of the people present had already completed the third event. Not far from Nobita, Sarkozy handed in his memory card. Judging from his confident appearance, he must have completed the event very well, otherwise he would have looked like he was the best.

"Hmph, you handed in your card in three minutes? I really don't know where you get the confidence to be sure you can win this match?"
