Chapter 215 Preliminaries ([-])

House is an old fritter with a strong ability to grasp the rules. He gave up cheating under Liang Xi's hint.But other people don't seem to think so. At first, some people just turned their heads to look at the answer sheets of the people nearby, and later developed to leaning over to negotiate with the other party.The sole invigilator turned a blind eye.Such an abnormal situation also made some people who wanted to cheat give up cheating.

After the exam, six people were expelled for cheating, and all gold coins were cleared.

Everyone's scores appeared on the tablet at the end of the exam time. Liang Xi scored 60 points. Liang Xi was most pleased that neither Monkey King nor Athena was pregnant.The wrong few questions are quite unfair, such as what is the relationship between Zeus and Satan?Friends, rivals, lovers and couples.This question crushed all Liang Xi's reasoning cells, and Liang Xi couldn't figure it out at all.In the end, Liang Xi chose his lover, but they turned out to be rivals in love.

After the scores came out, several people were expelled from the invitation due to insufficient gold coins.

At present, the total number of guests invited by Blood Moon is 23 people. The Blood Moon Butler is not satisfied. He and two referees whispered in a corner of the auditorium, and then called someone to discuss.

The blood moon steward hung up the phone and walked to the auditorium stage, and said to the 23 guests: "First of all, thank you for your hard work. Many people should have guessed that the luggage battle and novel study are to streamline the guests of the main competition. 23 people The scale of the competition still exceeded our expectations. So we have to conduct another round of preliminaries, I hope everyone can understand. This is also the last preliminaries, even if all 23 people pass the test, we will enter the official invitation program.”

The blood moon steward said: "In this preliminaries, the losers will be eliminated directly. We will buy back the gold coins of ordinary guests at a price of 1 million. VIP guests will deduct one gold coin if they fail. If they have more than one gold coin, this VIPs will not be eliminated. Everyone please follow me."

……

Butler Xueyue led everyone to a bedroom suite similar to Liang Xi's room, with a living room, a kitchen, two secondary bedrooms, and a master bedroom.

The blood moon steward said: "Everyone has 5 minutes to enter the room and observe this house. Please do not move any furnishings or touch any objects."

After 5 minutes, everyone went back to the entrance of the suite, and at this time the maid with the numbers 1, 2, and 3 on her chest stood in front of everyone.

Blood Moon Steward said: "Number 1, I want an apple."

Maid No. 1 nodded and entered the suite. The referee closed the door and came out within a minute. Maid No. 1 came out and handed an unpeeled apple to the housekeeper.

Blood Moon Butler said: "On the 2nd, please clean the coffee table in the living room, I will receive guests later."

Maid No. 2 nodded, entered the suite, and came out after about 2 minutes.

Blood Moon Steward said: "On the 3rd, I just went out and found my pocket watch left in the suite, please bring it to me."

Maid No. 3 nodded, entered the suite, and came out after about 10 minutes: "I'm sorry butler, I didn't find your pocket watch."

Butler Xueyue said: "No, I'm pretty sure that the pocket watch is on the bedside table in the master bedroom in the suite. You must have stolen the pocket watch. My question is, who stole my pocket watch. Everyone, please don't disturb this room. Decoration, open the cabinet, please close the cabinet, open the clothes, please fold the clothes. It takes 20 minutes, do you have any questions?"

A buddy raised his hand: "Can I be searched?"

Blood Moon Steward said: "Only the police can conduct a mandatory body search on suspects."

Maid No. 1 said: "If you give me a gold coin, I will allow a body search."

No. 2 maid said: "I only want 5 silver coins."

No. 3 maid said: "Give me two gold coins, and you can search me."

Blood Moon Butler said: "Attention, this preliminaries is the last preliminaries, there is no gold coin reward. Each person can only search one suspect, and must give an answer after the search."

Chris asked, "Can I ask them questions?"

The Blood Moon Steward replied: "Yes."

The blood moon steward waited for a while, and said: "Since there is no problem, the timer will start now."

Liang Xi's first step was to look at the apple given to the butler by maid No. 1.The second step is to observe the coffee table cleaned by maid No. 2.The third step is to observe the bedside table in the bedroom where the butler puts the pocket watch.

It took less than 2 minutes before and after, Liang Xi left the crowd in the suite and walked outside, took a note and pen from the referee, wrote a number and handed it to the blood moon steward.The blood moon steward nodded after reading the note: "The answer is correct, Mr. Liang really deserves his reputation. You can wait here for a while, or you can go back to your room to rest and wait for further notice."

Many people noticed this scene, and some of them had been paying attention to Liang Xi.After Liang Xi passed the level, they learned Liang Xi's steps and made three observations, but no one could know who the thief was from the three observations.Because of Liang Xi's actions, most people gave up looking for pocket watches and began to focus on the ultimate question: who is the thief?

Chris completely gave up. He has already determined that the gap between himself and Liang Xi in the field of reasoning cannot be made up by hard work. He has no idea of ​​any connections and mysteries between the apple, the coffee table and the nightstand.Chris was sure that Liang Xi was watching very carefully, and even put his face on the coffee table.Even with so much information, he didn't understand what Liang Xi meant.

Is this question difficult?It was not difficult for Liang Xi.

Look at the apples. There is water in the unpeeled apples, which means that the apples were washed on the 1st.Looking at the coffee table again, there is no residual water stain on it, indicating that No. 2 wiped and tidied the coffee table with a dry cloth.The bedroom bedside table where the pocket watch sits has a faint water stain. No. 2 and No. 3 do not need to touch the water, only No. 1 touches the water.One possibility was hands not drying and dripping onto the bedside table while holding the pocket watch.One possibility is that the bedside table was wiped down after spotting water dripping on it.The surfaces wiped with and without water are very different,
Number 1 can choose to dry his hands to reach the pocket watch, or wipe the bedside table with a dry cloth.But pay attention to two points.The first point is that it takes less than 1 minutes for No. 1 to enter the bedroom. To dry your hands and wipe the bedside table with a dry cloth, you must first know where the dry cloth is, and you must also consider the water stains on the dry cloth.The best way is to wipe off the visible water droplets with your hands, and then dry your hands with your underwear.

The second point: This is a temporarily added topic.

If this question is to be pitted, it is on No. 3. No. 3 went in for about 10 minutes. She searched and searched for many places.The last question a guest should think about is: where is the pocket watch.

No. 3 searched for 10 minutes but did not find the pocket watch. It has been explained that either No. 3 is a thief, or the pocket watch is on No. 1 and No. 2.Once this is figured out, the next step is the option of a body search. The search conditions given by the three maids are a pitfall. She is the most expensive maid and needs two gold coins to search.The butler has already explained that there is no gold coin reward this time, who would use 3 million pounds to search the body?More importantly, how many people have two gold coins?
The requirement of two gold coins increased the suspicion of No. 3, and many people would directly fill in No. 3 as a thief.This is like a werewolf killing game. Although No. 3 is a civilian, her speech has already attracted the suspicion of the civilians. The suspicion of No. 3 directly protects No. 1 thief.

If it is not found from the clues that No. 1 is a thief.Liang Xi thinks that it is better to lock No. 2, and only 2 silver coins are needed to search No. 5.When everyone is undecided, it is a good way to pay 5 silver coins to search No. 2, rule out the suspicion of No. 2, and choose a thief from 1 and 3.

VIP Anthony thought of this, and he took out five silver coins to search No. 2.Not really, he entered a room with the referee, and the referee told Anthony that No. 2 did not have a pocket watch.At the same time Anthony can no longer return to the game, he must write down the number of the thief.

1 or 3?

3's suspicion is even greater, because 3 wants two gold coins, obviously to prevent others from searching her.Anthony originally wanted to think backwards about choosing No. 1, because he knew that the topic invited by Blood Moon was not that simple.But Anthony discovered one thing.If you want to think backwards, you should write No. 2, and you should choose No. 3 if you follow the law of greatest suspicion.Anthony thought that Liang Xi would come up with the answer quickly, so he gritted his teeth and wrote a 3 on the sticky note, and handed it to the referee around him.

The referee shook his head, indicating that Anthony made a wrong choice: "Please leave through the back door."

Fanny was expressing dissatisfaction to the butler on behalf of some guests at this time: "This case is obviously a case of profiteering. This is not a habitual act of stealing. Those who can enter the castle to work have clean backgrounds. What I want to say is that this is not a real case of theft. , if it was a real theft, the thief would be nervous and I could see who was nervous."

Liang Xi said: "Among the crime data, there is a small group of people who do not feel any guilt after committing a crime, even including the first homicide."

Fanny retorted: "A small part is very low probability. I want to make a high probability choice. I believe your choice is not an affirmative answer, but a high probability answer."

Liang Xi: "That's right, but can you tell what kind of tension it is?"

Fanny: "Huh?"

Liang Xi looked at the three maids: "Can I have a little physical contact with you?"

With the consent of the three maids, Liang Xi greeted: "Bobby."

Bobby came over and Liang Xi whispered something to him.

Bobby nodded, thought for a while, approached No. 1, and lifted No. 1's chin with his left hand.The scumbag handsome guy leaned against his face, No. 1 couldn't help but get nervous: What do you want to do?
Bobby let go of No. 1, walked in front of No. 2, turned his head close to No. 2's ear, and whispered a few words.After Bobby left his side, it took a while for Number 2 to recover.

Then there was No. 3, and Bobby kissed him unceremoniously. No. 3 struggled and slapped Bobby twice.

Liang Xi said from the side: "One of the three people was agitated by anger. May I ask who it is?"

Fanny thought, Angry #1?It's possible that being teased and angry is normal. No. 2 anger?Possibly, Poppy might be whispering obscenities in her ear. Number 3 angry?It's also possible that the hit was quite heavy.Conversely, there is also the possibility of not being angry. No. 1 is shy and nervous, No. 2 is nervous about being asked out, needless to say No. 3, it is not clear whether it is liking or anger.

Fanny held up her hands and backed away as a sign of her abandonment of protest.

Blood Moon Butler said: "There are still 3 minutes left, please hurry up."

Bobby walked up to Liang Xi and asked curiously, "Who is angry?" Bobby was responsible for creating tension, but it was not clear who was nervous and angry at the same time.

Liang Xi asked back, "Why did you choose these three actions?"

Bobby said: "Brother, you don't understand the level. No. 1 is obviously someone who doesn't have much experience in love. No. 2 is more mature. I told her that she is pregnant."

Liang Xi asked, "Really?"

Bobby said: "Fake, I just saw that she is very moist, and guessed that she has a happy life, so I should scare her. I don't touch women with official boyfriends or husbands, so I didn't touch her. Number 3 likes me .Don't ask, you don't understand, I can tell from the look in her eyes that she likes me. She hit me because I shouldn't be rude to her in front of so many people."

Bobby said: "You need all three of you to be nervous, I managed to make them nervous, please praise me."

Liang Xi said: "No need to say, you are an expert in women." Liang Xi never explained who was angry, because he didn't know.

The two of them were not far from the blood moon steward, who could hear it clearly.After the conversation between the two, the Blood Moon Steward took a step forward, stopped Bobby, and asked, "Bobby Clement?"

Bobby said politely, "It's me."

Blood Moon Steward said: "I admire your views on women, so you have advanced."

Those who did not enter the suite heard what the butler said, and looked at Bobby together.Fanny's eyes were very sharp, and she really looked at Bobby for a while: "A female expert?"

Bobby replied with a smile: "I dare not, I'm just a scumbag."

Fanny replied: "I like scumbags."

Bobby replied: "It's a pity that the scumbag doesn't like you."

Fanny twisted her body and walked towards Bobby, with challenging eyes, she asked, "Don't you like it or don't you dare?"

Poppy replied: "Why should I mess with the black widow when there are insects to eat."

Fanny said: "The taste of the black widow is far beyond that of insects."

Liang Xi looked at Bobby, then at Fanny, what the fuck, these two are a perfect match.They are a pair of lines, there is a feeling of sparks hitting the earth.Say there is a feeling between them, but it seems to be fighting for strength.It is said that they are competitive, but there is a taste of mutual appreciation.

Bobby smiled slightly and said, "It sounds like it would be nice to have a change of taste once in a while."

Fanny approached Bobby: "I'm just worried that you fell in love with the smell of Black Widow."

Bobby disagreed, and replied: "The novelty hunter does not stay in the novelty." The novelty hunter is very curious about novelty things, but after getting familiar with novelty things, the novelty hunter will not take too much memory.

Fanny asked, "Are you a curiosity hunter? As a prodigal, are you looking for a woman who can rule your heart?"

Poppy: "Maybe, but are you the woman who can rule me?"

Fanny tapped her red lips with two fingers: "Wait for me, baby."

"Okay." Bobby kept smiling.

Liang Xi said from the side: "It turns out that this is what it feels like to be a supporting role." People are clearly present, but they are treated as air, so uncomfortable, without any sense of participation.

Bobby said confidently to Liang Xi: "I will always be the protagonist when it comes to women's issues."

At this time, the countdown of 1 minutes has entered.There are many stories in these 10 minutes. The rhythm of Liang Xi’s intercourse, Anthony’s body search, Bobby’s horizontal knife insertion, and finally Fanny and Bobby’s sparks hit the earth, so most people have not focused their energy on the case.

Kou Kou suddenly said: "I want to search, search No. 3."

As an ordinary guest, Kou Kou earned two gold coins in the luggage battle, and she decisively threw the two gold coins at No. 3.Liang Xi gave Kou Kou a thumbs up in admiration.Unexpectedly, this action was misunderstood by many people.

Koko and the referee enter the room, and the referee tells Koko No. 3 that she doesn't have a pocket watch.After weighing for a few seconds, Kou Kou wrote the number 1 on the sticky note and handed it to the referee. The referee nodded to indicate that she would enter the next round and asked her to leave through the back door.This is a money tactic. Even if it is a blood moon invitation, rich people can be willful.
