As soon as Lin Sanjiu finished speaking, someone rushed to the other two doors at the edge of the hall; she just crossed her arms, glanced at No. 42, and followed slowly at the end.
No. 42 also walked over, his face as solemn as a rock.
"No!"
The first ones to rush into the second room were No. 44 and No. 47. Not long after they entered, No. 44's slightly high-pitched voice for a man came out along the corridor: "Although this place is also the same rustic.
There is a room structure, but it’s empty here, there’s nothing!”
Lin Sanjiu was stunned.
"The third room is also empty!" Someone on the other side echoed loudly.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned back to Lin Sanjiu; not far away, No. 42 let out a soft "chi".
"No. 49, do you know what you are doing?" No. 47 frowned and asked coldly: "What you said just now makes perfect sense..."
It's strange. According to Ji Shanqing's analysis, there should be water drops in the other two earthen chambers——
Lin Sanjiu never expected that her guess about the gift package would come true, and she couldn't help but be a little dazed for a moment; she hurriedly walked to the two doors, and while she was thinking quickly about what went wrong, she suddenly raised her head
Suddenly, she saw No. 45 walking out of the third door. Following behind her were No. 46 and No. 48.
Really - Lin Sanjiu sighed in her heart. Even without using [Conscious Mimicry], she understood it at this moment.
"No. 45," she shouted loudly, "are there no water drops in the third earthen chamber?"
"No." No. 45 replied dissatisfiedly: "I told you -"
"Did you see it with your own eyes, or did you hear them say that the earthen chamber was empty?" Lin Sanjiu interrupted her.
No. 45 was startled, and while she stuttered in response, her expression gradually changed: "Yes, it was No. 46 who told me that the earthen chamber was empty... I saw No. 48 just coming out of it, so there was no
It’s necessary to go further in…”
"The second room is really empty too!" No. 44 shouted immediately, "You don't believe us?"
"No, I think the second room is indeed empty...it's just..." Lin Sanjiu laughed self-deprecatingly and walked towards the third door.
Although she didn't say anything, the look she just looked at everyone was enough to explain what she meant; she just moved. When someone followed, No. 45 turned around in a hurry——
"You guys... are really annoying."
The cool voice of No. 42 suddenly stopped everyone in their tracks.
No. 45 didn't even realize that No. 42 came around behind her silently; when she turned around, she was so shocked that she took two steps back. She asked repeatedly: "You - what are you going to do?"
interesting--
Amidst the sound of everyone taking a breath, a thought crossed Lin Sanjiu's mind.
Obviously just now he looked like a calm, serious, and very reliable middle-aged brother. But at this moment, No. 42, who was squatting at the door, seemed to have undergone subtle changes; just this slight change, he had already called him
He looks completely different from the other person - if you take a closer look, you can't even tell whether he is a middle-aged man or not.
When he squinted his eyes and scratched his cheek, someone even asked uncertainly, "Is that 42?"
No. 42 snorted through his nose after hearing this. If he really wanted to describe the expression on his face, it was like an adult who finally stopped being impatient and continued to take care of his children at home. He raised half of his mouth without interest.
To be honest, if the clothes hadn't changed, even Lin Sanjiu himself wouldn't be sure that this was the same person.
"It's amazing," she looked at No. 42 coldly and praised softly: "...I have never seen such a clever disguise. Just changing your look, you already look like a completely different person.
.”
"Papa!" Two crisp applauses came from the palm of No. 42.
"You still know the stuff," he squinted his eyes and smiled: "I didn't expect that my acting skills, which can't even get a role, will come in handy after the end of the world..."
"Did you really do it? Are there water drops in the third earthen chamber?" A tall male voice suddenly sounded from the crowd, it was No. 44: "Why don't you get out of the way!"
"Why would you do such a thing?" Someone else turned to No. 46 and No. 48 and asked, "Why would you two lie?"
"Also, the second earthen chamber is indeed empty. What's going on?"
Everyone asked questions one after another, and soon the sound echoed in the hall and became a noisy mass. Lin Sanjiu waved his hands vigorously, and after seeing everyone gradually calm down, he breathed out.
"Only No. 42 can accomplish this." Her eyes swept over the three silent people in front of her, and stayed on No. 46's glossy and smooth hair for a few seconds longer. "...
I think the two of them are not a couple at all, they should have come here with No. 42, right?"
No. 48's tense expression finally broke like a string when he heard these words - it seemed that he was about to say something, but No. 46 immediately grabbed his arm; after stopping him
Afterwards, No. 46 turned to look at Lin Sanjiu coldly.
There was a sudden and eerie silence between the two groups of people confronting each other. Finally, the surprised voice of No. 45 broke the silence: "No. 49, what... is this going on?"
"Didn't everyone say that the second earthen chamber is empty?" Lin Sanjiu didn't seem to care that she showed her back to No. 42 and others, and turned around and explained to everyone as if nothing had happened: "That's because, the second earthen chamber is empty."
The water drops in the second earth room have been moved out by No. 48 a long time ago, and they are now placed on the ground in front of us. I originally thought that the water drops in the first earth room would be placed in the second earth room.
But I forgot that No. 42 has room for props.”
"What? How do you know this is the water drop in the second earthen chamber?" No. 43 was obviously confused. After thinking for a while, he asked: "I can't see any difference."
Lin Sanjiu smiled. She already had a card in her hand. She shook the card towards everyone and said, "If you only look at the appearance of the water beads, I think you have also discovered that these water beads are completely
They are exactly the same, without any difference. But I am very lucky - because I happen to have a way to number all the water beads I find and put them away; the 24 water beads I found before were numbered from 1 to 24
Got the number.”
"However, when I re-carded the water drops on the ground just now, the water drop that was originally numbered 1 turned into 25." Lin Sanjiu looked back at the three people behind him and smiled: "...
This means that the water beads I put here before have been quietly replaced by others."
"You said he was changed - when did he change?"
"After we recorded all the water drops and walked back to the first earthen room, No. 48 started taking action."
"Impossible," No. 47 couldn't help but retorted softly: "After we went back, no one came out again. The cubicles were piled up to the ceiling. Once he tried to risk walking to the door, search for water droplets at high places.
People will find him soon."
"That's because he didn't go back to the earthen chamber at all." Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell on the silent No. 48. He was a man with an ordinary appearance and even a bit ugly. Even the smooth hair of No. 46
There is no quality, only the sweat slowly seeping out on the forehead at this moment——
"We clearly counted the number of people?" No. 45 shouted. "There were not many of them at that time!"
"Even if No. 42 lied when counting the points, I did indeed see No. 48 in the earthen chamber," No. 47 immediately echoed, "I saw it when I was changing areas. Both No. 46 and No. 48 were there.
"
Under the deliberate silence of No. 42 and others, several people on the other side unknowingly took on the role of refuting Lin Sanjiu, which I must say is a bit strange.
"Is this really the case?" Lin Sanjiu smiled, not in a hurry: "To be honest, I also saw No. 48. Not only did I see him get into a small cubicle, but I also happened to see his hair.
It was still shining in the dimness... It was precisely because I saw that head of hair that I became suspicious; it was clearly No. 46 hair, but it had the number plate No. 48. I originally thought I had seen it wrong...
…But then I thought about it, it was so dark in the earthen room that we couldn’t see people clearly at all, we could only see the number plates, right? Besides, these two people even pretended to be a same-sex couple in order to avoid everyone’s attention openly and openly——
—”
"What are you talking about? As soon as the number plate leaves the body, won't No. 48 die?" No. 45 covered his mouth: "Harry clearly emphasized that!"
"Really? Then you bend down and give it a try." Lin Sanjiu said, while also bending down in a demonstrative manner; the number plate with 49 written on it suddenly swung vertically from her chest and swayed in the air. "
When we were searching for water droplets, the number plate itself had already left our bodies countless times... What really hasn't left our bodies is the belt around our necks."
This statement obviously shocked everyone. After a while, someone murmured: "Could it be that... No. 48 took off the number plate and gave it to No. 46, leaving only a strap for himself?"
No. 48 suddenly sneered: "Tear one apart and let me see!"
"No, I think it's not possible to remove the number plate." No one expected Lin Sanjiu to deny this statement first: "In other words, it is not possible to just remove the number plate. It is connected to the strap. Once the number plate is gone,
I'm afraid the belt alone won't work; but with this premise, it gives No. 48 a chance."
"What chance?"
"You haven't forgotten, haven't you? A seed died in the previous group." When Lin Sanjiu said this, he also faintly admired Ji Shanqing's quick thinking: "... It stands to reason that there is another seed on that seed.
The number plate is the right one.”
"According to Harry, after a seed dies, three situations will occur. First, if the seed loses its number tag and is crushed to death by the ground, then he will not care about the body. Second, if the seed does not
If the germination is successful, it will still slowly rot in the ground and will not be dug out by Harry - note that in this case, the seed still has a number plate on it. And only in the last case,
The seeds that were poisoned by polluted water sources were dug out by Harry along with the person and the number plate."
"Everyone already knows what happened to the seeds in the previous group. That is to say, in addition to the eight number cards 42 to 49, there is a ninth number in this earthen chamber - I think, the earliest one
No. 42, who came to the cave, had already obtained the number plate and handed it to No. 48. When No. 46 entered the earthen room wearing two number plates, No. 48 stayed outside alone.
All the water drops in the first earthen chamber were collected and replaced with those moved out of the second one. All No. 42's speculations, such as secret passages and growths, were all to delay time... For this reason, he even hid them secretly.
Give us 5 water drops for us to discover.”
The hall was as quiet as a cemetery, and no one spoke for quite a while.
"Why... why do you do this?" Someone finally spoke hesitantly.
This time, it was not Lin Sanjiu who answered the question - No. 42 suddenly stood up. He held his head in his hands and moved several times, then sighed and said: "49
Didn’t I tell you the number? It’s just to let you test the poison!”
Even though he had known for a long time that he could not escape from the relationship, when he admitted it in person, it still caused a commotion in the hall.
"I'll just tell you the truth." No. 42 Jiejie smiled. "You can't tell which water drops are contaminated just by looking at them. Have you discovered this?
When I was looking for water drops in an earthen chamber, I had already gone out once; at that time, I had seen three earthen chambers. Only then did I finally find a clue."
"What clue?"
Hearing someone ask this, No. 42 smiled and remained silent, only looking at Lin Sanjiu - the latter's face darkened, sighed, and then said softly: "...Three earthen chambers.
Are the structures, as well as the arrangement and distribution of water droplets in them, exactly the same?"
"That's right!" No. 42 clapped his hands and exclaimed: "I never thought that someone like you, who looks more muscular, would think of this step. You have tried all kinds of methods, but you still don't know how to tell the difference.
Shuizhu, that’s because I hid the only hint.”
This time, no one even bothered to show anger.
Lin Sanjiu said with a straight face: "If the arrangement in the earthen chamber is different, there is no need for you to replace our water beads - and it is a bit unnatural for you to insist on asking everyone to search for water beads in separate areas; after all, if you want
The safest way is to go through each compartment one by one without leaving any behind. I guess you divided the water drops in the second earthen chamber according to area and order and redistributed them to everyone, right?"
"What, what do you mean?" No. 44 asked stammering.
Lin Sanjiu sighed. "He wrote down the distribution of water drops in the second earthen chamber... For example, how many water drops were in the first room in the first row, and in what order were they placed in ours?
name. Since the arrangement of all earth chambers is the same, when we taste that a certain water drop is pure, we will know the water drop in the same position in the next two earth chambers.
"It's very ironic, as I said before, the essence of this level is that eight seeds must work together to pass the level." No. 42 seemed to be unable to see the increasingly angry people, and only smiled and said: "Because of the water droplets
If the distribution is the same, then it can also be concluded that the total number of water beads in the three earth chambers is about 649 - that is to say, the ratio of purity to pollution is about one to one. Based on everyone's physique, it is completely able to bear it
It's such a trial and error. Even if your luck is extremely bad, you can still stop before your physical strength is exhausted - if one person has too many contaminated water drops on his hand, then there will definitely be extra pure water on the other person's hand.
beads.”
"Speaking of this, you should have realized it, right?" No. 42 narrowed his eyes, making him look a bit like some kind of canine. "...I advise you to put away that expression.
Try your best to please me from now on. After all, I am the only one who has the record of the arrangement and distribution of water beads in the second earth chamber. This is your last chance to find pure water beads." (To be continued.)
