Chapter 562
Ruth had always been proud of her academic qualifications.
After all, there were very few highly-educated people with Master''s degrees like her.
People like them were considered scarce talents.
That was why she had suddenly put Nora down with academic qualifications when she spotted her
right after they came out of the conference room.
Because it seemed that apart from her academic qualifications, there was nothing about her that could
compare with Nora! However, she was currently staring at Nora''s personal information on the screen in
astonishment.
It clearly read: Education: Doctorate All education after a Bachelor''s graduation was postgraduate, so
postgraduate degrees were the highest level of degree that one could achieve.
In that respect, Nora''s academic qualifications were the same as Ruth''s.
However, Ruth''s was a Master''s degree whereas Nora''s was: Degree: PhD Ph.D....
This was the highest level of degree achievable! Was there anything beyond that? Of course there
was! There were postdocs and academicians, but those were just upational titles.
In addition, there were many people who couldn''t be postdoctoral researchers or academicians
even after spending all of their lives trying.
Yet it was stated in Nora''s file that she was an academician at an international medical university when
she was living abroad.
It was to the extent that Ruth was even wondering if her eyes were ying tricks on her.
Did 25-year-old academicians even exist?! She rubbed her eyes and looked over again—only to see
that the word "academician" was still clearly stated there.
In addition, there were also corresponding certificates proving that all of this was real.
Johnson was dumbfounded.
Ruth also shut up.
Only Damon, the insensitive fellow, was silly enough to say, "Oh my god, I finally understand why
Captain Ford said that we would just be humiliating ourselves if wepare our academic
qualifications with Ms.Smith''s! B-but what''s going on here, though? Didn''t they say that Ms.Smith has
never been to school? Yet she''s actually an academician?!"
Someone nearby swallowed audibly and said, "An academician...! I''ve actually seen a living, breathing
academician! No wonder Ms.Smith is so cocky! If my academic qualifications were like hers, I would be
even cockier than her, alright? She''s so cool!"
"Where did Captain Ford find someone as talented as her? Her working ability aside, just her academic
qualifications alone are already the first of its kind in the special department! Ms.Smith makes us so
proud!"
No matter in what industry and no matter who it was, one would always possess the most basic level of
awe in the face of knowledge.
People who managed to enter prestigious universities were already very impressive, and geniuses—
even if they were down and out—would never be ridiculed, either.
Furthermore, given Nora''s academic qualifications and certificates...one couldn''t even call her a mere
genius anymore, right?!
"I''m actually working with an academician every day! Gosh, I suddenly feel so honored"
"Me too...I feel like I''m about to float...Captain Ford is so awesome.To think he could actually get such a
talent to join the special department..."
While everyone was talking about it, Johnson hurriedly turned off his cell phone.He felt like his cheeks
were stinging.He had recruited Ruth while...
Morris had recruited Nora.
All this time, he had been trying to use the reason that Ruth was better than Nora to weaken Morris''
momentum, but little did he think that he would actually lose all of the few consecutive rounds of
competition! This especially stood out when he looked at the group of subordinates here.

It was obvious that they now admired Morris even more.
He had totally shot himself in the foot! Ruth clenched her fists tightly.
She felt like even the glory that ck Cat had brought her just now had all been snatched away.
If she hadn''t mentioned anything about academic qualifications, everyone would probably still be
gathered all around her and dying to know more about ck Cat''s proposal.
However, it was obvious that their focus wasn''t on her anymore.
Ruth coughed, nning to change the subject.
She asked, "Would you guys like to take a look at the proposal that ck Cat and I have discussed
and jointly drawn up?"
As soon as she said that, Damon said perfunctorily, "I can''t read it anyway, so I''ll just wait until you''re
done tranting it...
Speaking of academicians, though! It''s really hard to be one.
But considering how Nora is Anti, the top surgeon in the world, it doesn''t seem that improbable that she
would be one..."
A puzzled co-worker asked, "Are academicians very amazing?"
Damon''s lip corners couldn''t help but spasm.
He gave him a crash course and said, "The United States has a poption of over 300 million people,
but there are only over a thousand academicians in the country! In addition, you have to make major
contributions in your field to have a chance of being appraised! There are only a dozen or so
academicians in the field of medicine! So, would you say it''s amazing or not?!"
"My goodness, then Nora...no, I feel like even the uttering her name is a form of insult towards
her.What kind of contribution has Professor Smith made?"
No one was paying any attention to Ruth anymore.
All of them had gathered and were discussing the matter in low voices.
Seeing this, Ruth bit her lip hard.
Next to her, Johnson took a deep breath and said, "What''s the use of having impressive academic
qualifications? This is the special department! It''s not a medical team! People who can crack the case
and catch all the members of the mysterious organization are the ones who are truly the most
impressive!"
Unfortunately, no one was listening to him anymore.
Johnson: "Forget it, Captain Johnson" said Ruth.
Johnson looked at Ruth bitterly and said, "It''s all your fault.You''ve totally embarrassed me!"
A dim light shed across Ruth''s eyes, but on the surface, she instead lowered her head and sighed.
"I didn''t expect this to happen, either.But don''t worry, Captain Ford has already said it himself just
now.Having high academic qualifications is nothing impressive.As long as my proposal allows us to find
important clues through interrogation, it''ll still be all thanks to you knowing talent when you see it!"
