There was silence on the beach for a few seconds. After Morihei whispered a few words into Green's ear, the pregnant woman spoke. "...I have to make a decision right now, or can I think about it first?"
Judging from everyone's expressions, it seemed that no one except Ji Shanqing thought this problem was a big deal - who else would have to think about it? However, when Lin Sanjiu glanced at the gift bag again, she found that he was smiling softly.
After a moment, he whispered, "Hey, this is not good."
"You can think about it first," the chef bent down to pick up the piece of meat. A round butt was bulging behind the grill, and a voice came from below: "I'll start grilling it first. You can tell me when you think about it. After putting it on the plate,
But you can’t throw it away.”
As soon as the chef said these words, he helped Morihei complete his alliance almost instantly.
Everyone was not stupid, and they all figured out the meaning of Green's question without Morihei's explanation - even Mr. Ito cursed "bastard!"
The chef has stated that a person cannot receive two "pieces" of barbecue in a row; what he means is not that a person cannot receive two "pieces" of barbecue in a row. Although there is only one word difference, the meaning is vastly different.
In the last experiment of little fat guys Li Xing and Ge, because two people stood on the sign at the same time, the whole round was invalidated and did not count. Therefore, one of the two people could continue to win the round of barbecue. But if only
If a person stands on the sign, this round is not invalid because it complies with the rules; but if Green decides to throw away the barbecue when he is about to get it, this unlucky guy cannot stay on the sign and wait for the next piece.
Meaty.
Thinking about it this way, is it possible that Green would throw away the flesh of his allies?
"I'm joining,"
The young woman who had been silent suddenly shouted and walked quickly towards Morihei and others. She looked to be about thirty years old, wearing ordinary short-sleeves and jeans, but it always seemed like she should add a pair of jeans.
Apron; among all kinds of women in the apocalypse, it is rare to see such a woman - it seems that if she doesn't have a child by her side and a spoon in her hand, she will feel that she is missing something.
, always looking absent-minded and living one day at a time.
"There are still two people left," Senping shouted, his eyes turning on Lin Sanjiu and others.
Mr. Ito looked as if he had just swallowed a pack of roundworms, spinning around in circles with sweat on his forehead. He obviously hoped that he could join the dominant side, but he was awakened by the gift package just now.
It's like a thirsty person looking at the sea water, anxious but unable to do anything.
"Count me in," Crane shouted immediately.
"Okay, what about you?" Morihei shouted to the small group at this end.
The young man hesitated for a while and just waved his hand. Ji Shanqing looked around and didn't answer, but suddenly found a silent person standing not far away on the beach - "Hey? What, aren't you going over?
?”
The eleventh owner of the villa, that is, the man with a gray complexion, as if his face was smeared with lead, stands like a ghost in the night, and you can miss him at a glance if you are not paying attention.
"I'm not going," he seemed to want to smile, but his smile didn't reach his skin, and his cheeks sank again before they could bulge. "I take it you don't go either, right?"
Morihei himself seemed not to have expected that one of his allies was still missing. But he still looked as calm as before. He just nodded and looked away; on the other hand, the other six people kept looking at each other.
He swept past Lin Sanjiu and others.
The tall Ge didn't waste any time. As soon as the little fat man left, he quickly stepped onto the yellow sign. Under Morihei's command, the remaining five people quickly formed a human wall near the yellow sign, which happened to cover the other four villa owners.
Bring a human-shaped object to guard against it. Their intention is already very obvious: until they gather four pieces of meat, the remaining people will not be able to get close to the yellow sign.
"What should we do?" The young man was a little panicked and couldn't help but pace a few steps, "How are we going to get the barbecue now?"
Ji Shanqing was not in a hurry at all. He even took Lin Sanjiu with him and found a seat where he could see everyone clearly. He also asked the chef if he had any beer, as if he was entering a theater to watch a play.
The other three villa owners followed suit. For a moment, two opposing camps, one large and one small, seemed to be formed on the beach.
"Don't he know how to win," Ji Shanqing said slowly, "Let's first see how he makes everyone get the same barbecue and learn from it."
"It's roasted," the chef happened to scoop up a leg of lamb at this moment and raised it to his head: "Here you go!"
Although Ge's expression could not be seen clearly, everyone could see the plate in his hand. Last time he got leg of lamb and beef ribs, and this time he actually got another leg of lamb; when he turned around,
He was so excited that he almost threw himself out. He stretched out a hand from mid-air, patted Morihei on the shoulder and said, "I have it for you!"
"He really knows!" Mr. Ito straightened his back, "Two people in a row collected two pieces of meat!"
Ji Shanqing glanced at him expressionlessly - Mr. Ito immediately asked: "Then how do you explain this?"
"That's a long story." Li Bao just leaned next to his sister and muttered.
Based on Lin Sanjiu's glance just now, she felt that Morihei didn't expect that Ge could actually gather two legs of lamb - but the surprise just flashed and disappeared from Morihei's face. He turned around
The head told Li Xing: "Eat your leg of lamb."
"Eh? What if it's a leg of lamb next time..."
Morihei didn't look impatient, and just explained: "Then you have gathered two chicken sausages, two lamb legs, a total of four barbecues, and you can't get the fifth piece. So no matter what, you have to take it apart.
I lost a pair and now I eat the leg of lamb, what’s the loss?”
Li Xing said "Oh", picked up the leg of lamb and started to chew on it.
Ji Shanqing straightened up slightly, pointed at the opponent's camp and said with a smile: "The tall guy is also a pair, and Li Xing is also a pair. Tell me, why didn't Morihei let the tall guy eat the beef ribs that were left alone?
Instead, Li Xing ate the lone leg of lamb?"
His words were not concealed, and his voice reached the ears of the other camp clearly, causing several people to look back. The dark-skinned woman thought about it for a moment, and actually responded from a distance: "...then you say, yes
Because of what?"
The chef just took out another piece of meat from the bag and put it on the shelf. He didn't seem to care what they were talking about. On the contrary, Morihei looked here, wondering what he was thinking about.
"I guess what he wants to do."
But when it came time to explain, Ji Shanqing lowered his voice and only spoke in Lin Sanjiu's ear - even the gray-faced boy and Ito had to squat down and put his ears to the back of their heads.
, I finally got a rough idea.
"Currently, the same piece of barbecue has never appeared three or four times in a row, right? In fact, if you include the invalid one, everyone has had a total of 26 barbecues so far, and only two of them are the same as the last time.
.There are also only two times. A certain piece of barbecue jumped once in the middle, and then appeared again after a piece of other meat was separated, such as the sheep, chicken, and sheep just now... These two situations each accounted for 13% of the total number.
A ratio of 1. In addition, there are four kinds of barbecues served in turns."
Except for Lin Sanjiu, several other people had a bit of surprise on their faces. The gray-faced man even asked: "Does it mean...do you remember what meat has been roasted every time so far?"
Ji Shanqing didn't even answer - as if he thought it was a matter of course.
He said easily: "So after scrapping a leg of lamb just now, Morihei's psychological activities were very clear. He thought that the chance of a leg of lamb appearing in the next few times would be reduced. At that time, sheep, chickens and sheep were like this
The frequency of occurrence was only once. To him, it was lower than the probability of two kinds of barbecue appearing in succession, so he did not take this situation into consideration. In the first round after canceling the leg of lamb, what appeared was not
Lamb leg, but chicken sausage, right."
"But Ge Cai just got a leg of lamb..." the young man said hesitantly.
"Listen to me."
If it were a smart person, Ji Shanqing would open his mouth and there would be no need to go on; it is a pity that these people, including his sister, need him to break down the words and explain them in detail. "Ge got the sheep.
The leg is an accident, because this way of sheep, chicken, and sheep appearing every other time is the second time in 26 times. But in this way, the probability of the leg of lamb appearing at least in the next two times is more guaranteed.
It’s even lower. Chicken sausage and lamb leg appeared in the last two rounds, so now the probability of chicken sausage and lamb leg appearing again is about 7%, and the probability of beef ribs and skewers each appearing is about 43%.”
When he said this, he glanced away.
At this time, Morihei was standing in the middle of the group of people, whispering to each other for a while, as if they had not yet decided whose turn it would be next.
"So you see," Ji Shanqing nodded, "he will take the next round by himself."
Almost as if he was following his instructions, Morihei pressed his hands down in the air several times, seemingly finally suppressing everyone's whispers, and then walked onto the yellow sign.
The little fat man Li Xing was still chewing on the leg of lamb, seeing that the bones were gradually exposed, and he was about to eat up half of the meat. At this moment, when the meat was roasted, a figure appeared on the grill.
Meat on skewers.
There was even a small uproar in Morihei's camp, some were surprised, some were excited - this time, he gathered three pieces of the same barbecue, and only one piece was missing to end it safely.
"Are we just going to watch them win?" Mr. Ito became anxious and his voice became a bit shriller: "He even guessed the probability of what he would win. I think he really knows, but we don't seem to have counted it yet.
!”
"Next, he will let Kelan or the housewife who talks less go up, because the chance of beef ribs appearing is now the highest. Both of them can touch the beef ribs and make a pair." Ji Shanqing said indifferently,
"He is now testing to see if his guess is correct. If the next person really gets the beef ribs, then he will have a system for dealing with barbecue activities."
Lin Sanjiu stretched his neck, feeling a little worried. Even the gift package said that beef ribs had the highest chance of appearing...
Sure enough, Crane was the next person to walk up to the yellow plate sign with a plate in hand.
Seeing that the piece of meat was almost cooked, Li Xing swallowed the last bite of the lamb leg, wiped the oil on his mouth and said, "I've finished eating."
"What a coincidence, I've finished grilling it too," the chef picked up the barbecue, and it turned out to be a piece of beef ribs.
Amid the cheers of everyone in the Morihei camp, he placed the beef ribs on Crane's plate with a smile and said: "The effect he just inspired is that you must eat the piece of barbecue you got immediately."
Crane's smile that just appeared suddenly froze. He originally had a cow and a sheep on his plate, but he had just gotten the beef ribs, and he didn't expect to eat them right away - but he ended up losing two orders.
"It doesn't matter," Morihei immediately comforted, "We already know how to sort out the meat. An unexpected situation will not affect the next plan."
Lin Sanjiu thought his words made sense - she turned around and asked, "Hasn't he already studied the probability of barbecue appearing? Even you admit that his method makes sense."
"I didn't say his method was reasonable." Ji Shanqing immediately pouted and said a little aggrievedly: "I just said that the probability of certain barbecues appearing just now is the same as what he thought."
Isn't this the same thing?
Lin Sanjiu was a little confused by him. After thinking for a few seconds, he asked: "...Isn't his calculation method wrong?"
"That's not right." Ji Shanqing smiled, reached out and grabbed a handful of sand on the ground, slowly clenched it in his hand, then loosened it, letting the sand fall in clusters from his fingers. "He has guessed correctly so far.
It can only be considered that he was lucky. The data sample of 28 times is too small, and the rules summarized are not universal at all, which shows that he has not understood the real rules of beach barbecue at all."
"Did you see it?" Ito asked immediately.
Ji Shanqing nodded. He looked at the chef's expression and suddenly smiled: "Give them a few more rounds, and we should break up this alliance."
