Megumi Karuizawa's Autumn Memories: Chapter 39: This is a great opportunity to make money.
At about 6:20 in the evening, the first batch of students who entered the conference room on the second floor had already come out one after another, but most of them looked confused, and many of them scratched their heads and muttered. What the result is one two three four.
"How about it?"
Kitagawa Ryo and Ryūen Sho who were waiting outside the conference room door immediately stood up and asked. Komiya and others from Class C were among the group who were asked to gather at six o'clock. In order to obtain the information first, the leader of Class C The visitors also gathered on the second floor early.
"Boss, the recording is here."
Different from the students in other classes, the students in Class C seemed to be much more relaxed. Although everyone knew only a little about the rules, Kitagawa Ryo had told them in advance to turn on the recording function of their mobile phones before entering the conference room, which would save money. Even if it takes less time than a few people to retell it, I can grasp all the information 100% and avoid missing something.
"Um."
Instructing Komiya to send the recording file to the chat group, Kitagawa Ryo put the open laptop on his lap on the chair in the corridor, plugged in the headphones, and planned to listen to what the school said in the past twenty minutes.
"give me one."
Ryuuen Sho squeezed in next to Kitagawa Ryo, and unceremoniously took away one of Kitagawa Ryo's headphones.
Kitagawa Ryo didn't pay much attention. He moved his body to give Ryuen Sho a bigger position and controlled the mouse to click on the recording.
"For this special examination, the school compared all first-year students to stems and branches and divided them into twelve groups. We will hold examinations within those groups. The purpose of the examination is to test the thinking ability."
The woman's voice sounded like that of Sae Chabashira, the class guide of Class D. Komiya also nodded and added:
"It is the class teacher of Class D who is responsible for explaining the rules."
[Thinking]
Kitagawa Ryo typed this word on his notepad, was it a test of his thinking ability?
"The basic abilities required of people in society are roughly divided into three categories: Action, Thinking, and Teamwork. Only those with these abilities will be qualified to become outstanding adults. In the previous uninhabited island exam, the content was focused on teamwork. However, this time it is Thinking. This will be an exam that requires thinking ability.
In other words, thinking ability is the ability to analyze the current situation and then clarify the topic. The ability to clarify the problem-solving process and then prepare. And the ability to be creative and create new value - something you will need in the future. "
Although, Class C did not demonstrate teamwork in passing the uninhabited island exam.
Kitagawa Ryo complained while listening to Chabashira Sae's lecture.
"So this exam will be divided into twelve groups to take the exam."
"First of all, although this is a matter of course, the four people present will be in the same group. And at this time, other rooms are also explaining the members who will be in the same group as you." "
Kitagawa Ryo squinted his eyes and looked at the students who came out of other rooms at the same time. Sure enough, this exam was an exam where students from each class were mixed into different groups.
But if that's the case, why not gather the students from the four classes in the same group together to explain?
Ryuuen Sho who was on the side also seemed to be aware of this problem. He frowned and came over to write down the words "unnecessary explanation of the same group's classes" on his notepad.
"The group you were assigned to is "child". Here is a list of the group's members. You are asked to return this piece of paper when you leave the room, so if you feel the need, write it down here first. "
Kitagawa Ryo looked at Komiya, who nodded and sent a compiled list to the group. They adopted the method of one person recording one class, which seemed quite easy. After all, one person only needs to remember three or four. A personal name is enough. Kitagawa Ryo took a casual glance and found that basically none of the students in the other three classes were familiar. They were all very unfamiliar names.
"As a major premise, you will ignore the relationship between Class A and Class D for this exam."
"From now on, you will not act as Class C, but as subgroups. The result of passing or failing the exam will be set individually for each group."
"There are only four results for each group of the special examination. The exam is designed so that it will definitely turn into one of the four results, and there will be no exceptions. To make it easier for you to understand, the school has also prepared materials with the results. However, this information is also prohibited from being taken out or photographed. Please confirm beforehand in this place."
What is commendable is that Xiaomiya and others had an idea at this time and began to read the rules continuously. They even pretended to be confused and kept rereading the important sentences:
"This exam is based on the "preferential recipients" assigned to each group as the benchmark. If you answer the questions to the school using the prescribed method, you will definitely get one of the four results.
The school will send an email to notify students at 8 a.m. on the day the exam starts. At the same time, the fact of selection will be communicated to those selected as "preferential recipients".
The exam schedule is from tomorrow to 9pm four days later (doping-free day).
Team members must gather in a designated room twice a day at a designated time and hold one-hour discussions.
The content of the discussion is entirely left to the discretion of the group.
Regarding the answer part, after the exam is over, the school will only accept the answers to "Who is the recipient of preferential treatment" between 9:30 pm and 10:00 pm on the same day. In addition, one person can answer the question once at most.
The school only accepts students using their mobile phones to send letters to the designated mailbox to answer questions.
"Preferees" do not have the right to send answers by mail.
All responses to groups other than the one you belong to will be considered invalid.
The school will notify all students of the detailed examination results by email at 11pm on the last day. "
Kitagawa Ryo listened to this recording three times, and Ryūen Sho took the trouble to chew on the rules of this special exam:
"This is not a group-based exam. In the final analysis, this is also a kind of special exam. It is a competition between classes."
Long Yuanxiang put forward his opinion like this. He controlled the mouse and dragged the progress bar of the recording.
"Result 1: Except for the preferential recipients in the group and the students in the preferential recipient's class, if everyone answers the correct answer, the school will pay all group members personal points. (Students in the preferential recipient's class will each receive the same points)
Result 2: Except for the preferential recipient and the students in the preferential recipient's class, if any of the group members fails to answer or answers the question incorrectly, the school will pay the preferential recipient 500,000 personal points. "
"Result 3: If someone other than the preferential recipient tells the answer to the school in advance without waiting for the end of the exam, and the answer is correct, the class to which the answering student belongs will receive fifty class points, and the school will pay the person who answered the correct answer fifty points. Ten thousand points. On the contrary, the class whose identity is revealed will be punished by deducting 50 class points. The group examination will end at this time. Furthermore, if the students in the same class as the preferential one answer correctly, the school will The answer will be considered invalid and the exam will continue.
Result 4: If someone other than the preferential recipient tells the school the answer in advance without waiting for the exam to end, and the answer is wrong, the class to which the student with the wrong answer belongs will be punished by losing fifty class points. While the preferential recipients receive 500,000 personal points, the class to which the preferential recipients belong will also receive 50 class points. The exam will end at the time of incorrect answer. Furthermore, if a student in the same class as the person receiving the preferential treatment gives an incorrect answer, the answer will be considered invalid and will not be accepted. "
Such a long string of text may be a bit difficult to understand in today's era where short videos and fragmented reading are prevalent. It's no wonder that most of the students who just came out had a grimace on their faces, but Kitagawa Ryo and Ryūen Sho quickly figured it out. Understand the logic, although at first glance this exam looks a bit like the "werewolf game" that has been popular in recent years, in essence it is closer to "who is the undercover", if the "preferential recipient" is regarded as the undercover of each group , the four results can be summarized as follows:
Result 1: The undercover agent is exposed on his own initiative, and all members of the team answer the question correctly at the last moment. All members will receive an additional 500,000 personal points, and the undercover agent will receive an additional 500,000 points.
Result 2: Someone in the group answered the question incorrectly at the last moment, and the undercover agent alone received 500,000 personal points.
Result 3: Before the end of the exam, if someone successfully answers the question about undercover status, fifty class points will be deducted from the undercover class, fifty class points will be given to the class with the correct answer, and half a million personal points will be awarded to the correct answerer alone.
Result 4: Before the end of the exam, if someone fails to answer the question about undercover status, it is the opposite of Result 3.
"This preferential treatment person is somewhat similar to the leader in the uninhabited island exam."
Ryūen Sho is not interested in the results one and two. For the current Class C, the class points are far more important than the hundreds of thousands of individual points. This mechanism of guessing correctly and deducting fifty for the wrong guess almost makes He instantly remembered the special examination on the uninhabited island a few days ago.
"But unlike the leaders of the uninhabited island, the preferential treatment recipients this time seem to be selected by the school."
Kitagawa Ryo nodded in response, and the two of them listened to the remaining short section of the recording:
"This time the school has also considered the issue of anonymity. At the end of the exam, the school will only announce the results of each group, as well as the increase or decrease in points for the class unit. In other words, we will not disclose the names of the preferential recipients or responders. In addition, , if you want, it is also feasible to temporarily issue a temporary ID for remittance, or to withdraw money in installments. As long as I remain silent, there will be no doubt about being discovered after the exam. Of course, if you have no need to hide, you must be aboveboard. It doesn't hurt to collect points locally."
This should be a patch made by the school to increase students' initiative in this special exam. After all, not every class is like Class C who can commit fraud and betrayal without hesitation. Most students are wary of those around them. Generally speaking, it is difficult to betray or deceive people. This rule can be regarded as letting those who are tempted but afraid to act worry-free in advance. It seems that the school still hopes to muddy the water.
"Prohibitions and other matters are also written here, please take a look."
"It is prohibited to steal other people's mobile phones, use threats and intimidation to confirm information about preferential recipients, and use other people's mobile phones to send answers without permission."
"Violators will be expelled from school."
"Similarly, those who falsely claim to have been threatened will be expelled from school if it is found out."
"After the final exam, we must be disbanded immediately, and we are prohibited from talking to students from other classes for a certain period of time. Anyone who violates this will also be expelled from the school."
"Starting tomorrow, you will go to the designated room in the school at 1pm and 8pm. There will be a sign with the name of the group hanging in front of each room that day. Please be sure to introduce yourself in the room when you meet for the first time. After entering the room, The discussion time is one hour, and you are basically not allowed to leave the room during the discussion period. Please go to the bathroom before going there. If you can't bear it or feel unwell, please contact the class instructor immediately and submit an application."
"In order to ensure fairness, the school will strictly adjust the recipients in the group. Regardless of whether they are selected as recipients or not, we will not accept requests for changes. In addition, all copying, forwarding, and Behavior such as changing emails sent from schools."
The recording ended here. Kitagawa Ryo looked at the two points added by Ryūen Sho on the notepad and fell into thinking:
[Are there any hidden rules for the selection of preferential recipients? ]
[How is the school's fairness reflected? ]
The two were brainstorming. The Class C student on the side also brought two cold drinks to Kitagawa Ryo and Ryūen Sho from the restaurant. Kitagawa Ryo took the drinks and bit the straw and said:
"Intelligence is important."
"So it is a test of thinking ability, rather than a test of intelligence gathering and control of the class."
Long Yuan Xiang also replied:
"Yes, it is similar to the uninhabited island exam. If the fairness specifically stated by the school is understood as the equal distribution of preferential treatment recipients, there will be three in one class. In other words, if the preferential treatment recipients in this class are hidden, we can guess All preferential candidates in other classes will receive four hundred and fifty class points."
"Of course, we can also use the same strategy we adopted in the last special examination to negotiate with other classes to gain more personal points by revealing the identity of the preferential recipient."
Kitagawa Ryo nodded, thought for a while and said:
"But this is all based on the fact that we have the full list of preferential treatment recipients. The school's rules this time are very strange, especially this twice-a-day discussion. Normal werewolf games or who is an undercover will indeed have such discussions. links, but they all started discussions on the basis that they would definitely obtain information."
"The daily night sessions in the Werewolf game, and the daily sessions in Who is Undercover where one sentence describes the word in hand, all provide information for discussion. This is also the basic condition to ensure that the game will eventually proceed and end."
"But in this so-called 'preferential treatment test', what exactly are we going to discuss? Asking you directly whether you are a preferential treatment person? Without the basis of information, doubts will naturally have no confidence and appear empty, let alone two hours a day, that is If you give them more time, as long as the person doing the favoring is willing to hide, they won't be caught."
On the side, Komiya, Ishizaki Daichi and others were confused. Only Ryuuen Sho could keep up with Kitagawa Ryo's rhythm:
"Yes, the huge gap between results three and four makes it difficult for anyone to guess easily. Moreover, this is not a group-based exam at all. In the final analysis, it is still a competition between classes. The same group has four class members. The rules make it a paradox to find out who gets preferential treatment through discussion."
"Um...Brother Longyuan, what do you mean?"
Ishizaki Daichi on the side couldn't help but asked, and Ryūen Sho explained to him:
"Beichuan has just said that the difference between this preferential treatment test and the werewolf game or who is the undercover is that non-preferential persons do not have the ability to reason through elimination at all, because they simply do not have enough information to support their inferences. If we look at the school's rules, in this exam, even if the three classes work together, there is no way to find a preferential candidate."
Seeing that the others still looked confused, Kitagawa Ryo continued what Ryūen Sho had said:
"For example, the preferential recipient of this group is you, Komiya. At this time, assuming that the three classes of ABD jointly unite and exchange information, at most we can only conclude that the preferential recipient must be in Class C, but there are enough Class C in this group Four of you, at this time, you either say nothing or stand up together and say that you are the preferential treatment, can the other three classes guess it?"
"Okay...it doesn't seem possible."
Komiya and others imagined the scene described by Kitagawa Ryo, shook their heads and said.
"And that's not the only weird thing. For example, results three and four completely blocked the way to result one."
Kitagawa Ryo drank the drink and gradually cleared his mind:
"If you want to achieve the first result, then the recipient of the preferential treatment must announce his status as the preferential recipient in the last discussion on the last day, right."
"This is a necessary behavior to prevent betrayal."
"But please be careful."
Kitagawa Ryo dragged the progress bar back to the middle:
"The last discussion will be at 8 o'clock in the evening. The discussion lasts for one hour. After nine o'clock, each group will be disbanded immediately and communication with other members of the class will be prohibited."
"but--"
"The school's acceptance time is from nine-thirty to ten o'clock."
Putting the finished glass on the table, Kitagawa Ryo stretched out:
"Then what will the members of his class do when they learn the identity of the preferential recipient between nine o'clock and nine-thirty?"
"betray!"
Komiya replied quickly.
"Yes, regardless of whether the betrayal is successful or not, outcome three or four will definitely be achieved. So from this point of view, outcome one is almost impossible to achieve."
"So this is the reason why the school dares to make such a generous decision."
"If you count a group of thirteen to fourteen people, if you achieve outcome one, you will have to spend seven to eight million personal points."
Kitagawa Ryo put his chin on his hand and murmured:
"What an exciting number."
"I think I have a crazy idea."
Ryūen Sho watched Kitagawa Ryo type four lines on his notepad:
[1. If the discussion cannot identify the preferential recipient, it means that the selection of the preferential recipient is likely to have its own hidden rules, and students can find out. ]
[2. The conditions for achieving result one are the most difficult, even close to impossible, because the four classes must cooperate together. ]
[3. Class C currently has an unconditional cooperation contract with Classes B and D. "]
[4. Class A now has Katsuragi losing ground and is in disarray. At the same time, the gap in class points between Class BC and Class A is extremely small. ]
"I think it's time to take advantage of the school."
Kitagawa Ryo closed his laptop.
ps: I'm almost cured of my illness, but it's really uncomfortable to be sick. I feel this again.
ps2: There are quite a lot of slots in the preferential test. I don't understand why this special test is called "Cruise Werewolf". After all, there are more than a dozen villagers with a blank slate and a werewolf. And a werewolf can't kill a human werewolf. Kill the rules...
ps3: Thank you for reading and subscribing. There should be an original story line for this exam.
