Maybe I can't have normal youth

Chapter 18 Minority Decision

"The second question: Do you have long hair?

Sure enough, they are all such irrelevant questions. Even if the president asks whether you live on Earth C-137 or whether you are a big octopus or something, it is just a symbolic question of judgment.

It's just that such a realistic problem can make people more shaken.

But this time it is still an odd number. If there is an even number, there is a balanced way to let everyone go all the way to the end, as long as they say the average vote can safely pass the remaining four rounds.But if the number is odd, you must win or lose. It's a more dramatic number...

"Well, how about we all vote "yes"?" Sure enough, someone will always suggest that, "As long as everyone keeps voting "yes", then the seven of us can go to the fifth round smoothly, everyone You can get five points, how about it?"

"Eh~ how is this! It feels like you have taken a big advantage!" Some of the eliminated people immediately protested, really thinking too well.

However, the protests of the eliminated people will naturally have no effect, as long as the seven of us can reach an agreement.Although I am not opposed to such a suggestion, and even hope that everyone can accept it, I am never naive enough to think that things will go smoothly.

Seven people are easier to cooperate and have a higher success rate than 25 people.

However, there must be suspicion where there are people, and there will also be betrayal and deception.

If there are only three people, I think it is possible to proceed to the end.And we have seven people, there are four rounds left, the base is still too big.If there are people who do not want everyone to profit, then the probability of seven people being promoted to the end of the final round is very small, and there is almost no possibility of success.Once the order collapses, it is impossible to re-establish a new order in a short time.

As long as one of them betrays, he can directly win alone.Other students will definitely think of this, so the stance of choosing "yes" will be more shaken.

What a prisoner's dilemma!

But how to say, I don't say much, after all, the lure of awards is not great for me.

"Okay, I don't think it's a problem at all. I will vote "yes"." So I was the first to express my attitude.

"Then I agree too." The magician classmate then agreed.

"Then I too..."

"Me too..."

After all, human beings are convergent creatures, even on the surface.

"How did you agree? I thought you would oppose it." I looked at the magician classmate a little strangely, "You are not afraid that everyone can't get their scores apart, or do you really believe them?"

"Ah, I can't say, I actually don't believe it can be done, but..."

"But do you just want to be in a group?" I suddenly felt this way.

"Ah, you said that, it feels right." As if I had punctured something, the magician's two ears were suddenly full of blood. "Everyone will agree, even if they disagree in their hearts. , Don’t become too gregarious..."

"So you also think this is completely impossible, right? Everyone makes the same choice."

"Yes, after all, as long as one person uses their brains, the rest will lose everything."

"So even short-term partnerships will not exist, some are just superficial peace, and the small nine in their hearts."

"Yes, everyone is worried that someone will change their minds. So their chances of changing their minds will increase, and if four people change their minds at the same time, the one who has not changed their minds will be the winner again... So everyone will wonder whether they should not change their minds, but The risk of the unchanging hexagram is too high..."

After all, this has become a pie problem.

"Okay, ten minutes will pass soon again~" The president still reminded you the moment the numbers on the big screen turned red.

The classmates who had been chatting and communicating also calmed down, waiting for a good show.

Maybe you can get a different kind of fun by being eliminated as an audience early.

"8...7...6...5..."

When there were only five seconds to make a decision, I suddenly had a strange hunch.

"Choose "Yes" and don't change it." I lowered my voice and said anxiously to the magician classmate.

He glanced at me, but did not respond to me.

"2...1..."

The two characters "raising a card" reappeared on the screen.

My answer is "yes".

The same goes for the magician classmate.

"Okay, there are 3 "yes" and 4 "nos" in total."

"Hey, didn't you say yes to choose "yes" together? Why did you change your mind?"

"You have a face to say? Didn't you also choose "No"!"

I won't be surprised how many people change their minds. After all, it is the most tormenting to keep one's choice until the last moment with suspicion and suspicion.

"How do you know to choose "yes"?"

"As far as this situation is concerned, it's not so much a game, but luck is more important." I blinked at the magician classmate, and just replied.

"Eh~Really? So it's luck?"

"Why? Don't you believe it?"

"Ah no, no."

"Then you actually wanted to hang up in the end? Why did you believe me?"

"Hey, I actually don't know. At that time, my heart was swaying so much, everyone should be. Maybe you shouted "Yes" at the time, maybe everyone followed the election."

The only people left were me, the magician classmate and the other three who chose "yes".

The next round is the tiebreaker.

"Okay~ I didn't expect that our first game of the day will be over in another round. It's really a pity." President, your expression didn't make me feel pity, as an old player, you must have been counting After the number of people, this situation was expected, "The question in the last round is: Do you like yourself?"

Well, it's a question that is biased towards self-examination.

But no matter what, there is no need to include a substantive answer.

Only one person can win. In the last ten minutes, we all became competitors. Naturally, there was no way to gather together to discuss countermeasures.

I went to the bathroom to wash my face and let my mind relax for a while, and then ran to chat with the president of the reasoning club, and learned about some related issues such as the operation of the club.Time passed quickly.

"It's time to answer with a placard again!"

"5...4...3...2...1"

With the third appearance of the word "raising a card", the magician student looked at me while giving an answer.

"Huh? What are you doing?"

I did not raise the placard.

"Okay! One "yes", one "no", one student abstained. I announced that the two winners of the first mini game have come! Get three points each."

"Why did you abstain?" The magician asked me immediately after the president's voice fell.

"Because this is the only way to make you win. It doesn't matter if I choose "yes" or "no", because I don't know the choice of another classmate. If you don't consider the three people choose the same situation, you The probability of being eliminated is two-thirds, or 67%, which is too high."

"Ah this...but...you..."

"I'm totally okay," I shrugged. "Anyway, I'm really not interested in winning or not. I think you want to win so much, so I can help you. Don't thank me."

Of course, there is another main reason why I don't want to answer this question in the third round.Whether "yes" or "no" is not the answer I want to choose.Although I keep saying that these questions have no substantive meaning, when I am actually asked, I still tend to answer honestly.

And this time, I don’t want to answer at all.

But naturally, I would not tell the magician classmates.

"Then how do you know you can abstain?"

"Didn't I just chat with the president for a while in ten minutes? I just asked him if he can abstain. No one asked just now anyway."

"Ah, can this be the case?" The magician classmate scratched his hair hard, annoyed that he had neglected some rules.

A player like him who wants to win will naturally not consider the issue of abstention at all.

"Hi, it's okay. Isn't that good? Everyone is happy!"
