Gu Mian also took votes from ballot box No. 1166, but did not "kill them all"
Those who were able to advance had their votes earned through hard work. Gu Mian only took part of the votes. Those who were able to advance could still advance, but their rankings became lower.
This is also the main reason why Koro-sensei’s first place was not affected.
Soon Gu Mian took Mr. Lu to the outdoor restaurant on the deck.
There is a long table in the middle of the deck, long enough for fifty people to sit on both sides to eat at the same time.
The superiors also thoughtfully posted everyone's numbers on the chairs next to the long table, and they planned seats for the contestants.
Gu Mian's position is very conspicuous and special. It is at the end of the long table facing the short board, just like the seat of the head of the family in TV dramas.
The seats on his left and right were 1166 and 1095. Gu Mian knew that these were seats assigned based on the audience's popularity rankings.
1166 and 1095 are ranked second and third respectively in the popularity rankings.
Everyone went to the back according to their order. Gu Mian saw that 1117, representing Mr. Green, was separated from her by more than half a table.
A few people have already sat down at the chairs at the long table, and they seem to have been waiting here for a long time.
Everyone obviously knew Gu Mian. When they saw Gu Mian coming, they all stood up and nodded to Gu Mian to say hello, as if Gu Mian was the teacher who came to class, and they were the students waiting to learn.
Mr. Green looked like he had seen a ghost. Among these people, there were also those who chased him and Gu Mian with red eyes in the morning. However, after only half a day, their appearance changed, and they seemed to be respectful to Gu Mian.
Of course, their greetings were only directed at Gu Mian, and Mr. Green, who came with Gu Mian, was completely ignored.
Mr. Green was shocked and felt very unfair.
"The lower-class people here are the best at watching what is served," Mr. Lu curled his lips and whispered to Gu Mian, "They know that you are the most popular among the upper-class people, so they think you are the one with the highest status here."
The tracking device shuttled among the contestants, not missing every expression on their faces.
Gu Mian and Mr. Lu took their seats respectively.
After a while, people gradually arrived, including No. 1166, who broke his leg.
He hobbled to the deck with a cane, and almost overturned the stool when he sat down. Thanks to the help of the person below him, he didn't fall to the ground.
There were also people who were late because they got lost. They apologized over and over again, and after talking to the people at the table, they said it to the camera and tracking device.
Although there were some hiccups in the middle, luckily everyone had their meal smoothly in the end.
The person who serves the food is a robot dog, like Xiao Hei.
The upper-class people definitely don't want to do the job of serving food for the lower-class people, so they should use robot dogs instead.
I don’t know who invented this robot dog. It can not only do street happiness surveys on the street, but also sort express delivery, and can also do tasks such as serving food.
The table is much higher than the robot dog, and they can't reach the table when carrying the dishes, but the dog has the wisdom of a dog.
The two robot dogs stacked up on top of each other like Arhats. The lower dog got down first, and the other dog stepped on its back with a plate.
When the dog above him holding the plate stabilizes his position, the dog below slowly stands up again.
In this way, the dog above can extend its arms to deliver food to the table.
The dogs brought the food to the table in an orderly manner, and each person had a corresponding plate in front of them, with a dinner plate cover covering the plate.
The number 1118 is written on the cover of the dinner plate in front of Gu Mian, and the numbers on other people's dinner plate covers also correspond one to one.
Although everyone gathers together, they still eat their own food.
Gu Mian noticed that the plate in front of him was much larger than the people on both sides, so much so that the mechanical dog that was serving him the plate almost lost his balance and fell when he was serving the food.
No one was the first to lift the lid. They all looked at Gu Mian, as if they were waiting for Gu Mian to lift it before they dared to lift it.
Lower class people are very good at adapting to the environment and will evolve a set of reasonable rules based on the environment.
The superiors divide the contestants' rooms and seats in the restaurant according to the popularity ranking. The contestants regard this ranking as an imperial edict, follow each other, and put the most popular people first in everything.
In order to prevent everyone from starving to death, Gu Mian first opened the lid of his huge dinner plate.
It's really rich inside.
There was half a leg of lamb with honey sauce, a whole turkey, vegetable salad, cream pudding and the like.
Gu Mian originally thought that the upper-class people might play tricks on their food, serving food that was difficult to swallow or even inedible.
He was even ready to lift the lid and find a bomb inside - if this was the case, people wouldn't have to look forward to tomorrow's show. A bomb could send fifty contestants into the sky.
The audience was obviously looking forward to tomorrow's show. They did not treat them harshly in terms of food. Instead, they arranged a rich meal, probably to give them enough strength to create more show effects tomorrow.
But the contestants' food is not exactly the same.
The food portions are also distributed according to the popularity ranking. The higher the popularity ranking, the richer the dinner will be.
Gu Mian saw that although the food at 1166 and 1095 on both sides was also very rich, it was still inferior to her own.
There was only half a turkey and a plate of vegetables left on Mr. Green's plate.
The person at the end of the table only had one chicken leg and a few baked potatoes on his plate. Even these were the delicacies that lower class people had never tasted.
Gu Mian guessed that the superiors treated the contestants differently in this way to make the contestants feel unfair and stage a good show of internal strife.
But they obviously ignored the servility of the lower class. Everyone was happy and ate the food distributed directly according to the ranking.
The gentleman sitting in front of the screen didn't see the picture he wanted, and called this stage the most boring stage of the entire variety show.
At this time, Chu Changge and 007 were also watching the live broadcast on the cruise ship in front of the screen.
They returned to Crazy Game City.
Although they have upper class identity cards, they are not really upper class after all. They have no house to live in the residential area and can only return to the game city at night.
After returning to the game city, the two went to the bookstore and watched the live broadcast of the cruise ship on TV.
The owner of the bookstore was numb to the arrival of the two. At this moment, he was wiping the counter dully with a rag, waiting for them to leave after watching the live broadcast.
"The second and third stages of tomorrow's variety show will be held continuously. If everything goes well, we can leave here tomorrow." 007 looked at the screen.
Because the audience loves Gu Mian very much, he has the most scenes.
The bookstore owner is afraid to look at the screen, for fear that someone will jump out and slap him twice if he takes one more look inside.
When he heard 007's words, his eyes gained some color, and he pricked up his ears and listened secretly.
007 continued: "I won't come back after I leave tomorrow. I have to take Mingliang with me to the variety show."
"He seems to want to stay here." Chu Changge pushed up his glasses. For Chu Changge, it didn't matter if he left with or without Mingliang. Of course, it was better not to take him with him, as he would be less of a burden.
007 expressed his understanding: "It's normal to want to stay here. There's no danger, there's no need to enter the dungeon, and there's no need to worry about food. But he doesn't understand that he's getting good treatment now because Gu Mian is still here. I dare say that if he stays here, as long as Gu Mian
As soon as Mian leaves, he will be immediately thrown out by the people in the game city, or become a low-class person, or simply starve to death on the roadside."
She paused for a while before continuing: "Let him watch tomorrow's program, let him see what happens to the lower class, and then see if he is willing to become a lower class and stay here."
007 cannot be said to be better: becoming a lower class or staying in the real world and entering the dungeon.
Everyone has their own choice. If Mingliang still doesn't want to return to the real world after watching the show tomorrow, they won't force it.
While talking, all the contestants on the screen have finished their food.
Most people licked their plates cleaner than their faces. It was their first time to eat something so good. Even if their stomachs couldn't hold it anymore, the contestants still tried their best to stuff the last bit of food on the plate into their mouths and finish the meal.
He also showed a satisfied smile.
This masochistic way of eating made the audience very satisfied. In fact, they most wanted to watch Gu Mian eat like this.
But Gu Mian barely touched the food in front of her, which greatly disappointed the audience in front of the screen. However, thinking of the upcoming show tomorrow, they started to look forward to it again.
What 007 didn't expect was that after dinner, the program team also launched a mysterious vote for the contestants - fifty contestants were asked to vote anonymously to determine the order of appearance in tomorrow's variety show. The more votes, the lower the appearance ranking.
The person with the most votes will be the last to appear.
The higher the order of appearance, the greater the advantage.
Of course, everything in the voting was done by the mechanical dog. After the voting, the program team was reluctant to announce the voting results immediately, but will announce them on the stage tomorrow. ()
