Doomsday Wonderland

"Congratulations to the owner of villa No. F10, for being the second runner-up and getting the barbecue together!"

The chef's announcement cut off Ji Shanqing's words and drew everyone's attention back to the barbecue grill. Morihei wiped his mouth, and the chef spoke to him again: "Although you have completed the activity, you just ate the barbecue, and the stimulation effect has not yet been determined. Now you have to designate the next piece of barbecue."

"Why is this effect happening again...?" Someone muttered, "This effect has appeared three or four times, right?"

Green took a step forward, his face no longer looking good: "You choose the beef ribs! Due to emotion and reason, you have to help me with this."

Ji Shanqing crossed his arms with interest. "Try it," he said to Morihei, "I really want to see if the chef can grill beef ribs in this situation."

Green twisted his head: "What do you mean?"

But Ji Shanqing didn't answer her. Morihei said "beef ribs" to the chef; the latter raised his eyebrows and thrust his upper body out from behind the grill, asking again and again: "Are you sure? You asked for this yourself, didn't you?" It’s my decision!”

When asked, his joy could not be suppressed even though it flowed out a little along his eyebrows and the corners of his eyes.

Seeing the chef's reaction, even a fool can tell that something is wrong. Except for Crane, who also wanted to get beef ribs, everyone else spoke one after another - "Change your words quickly, don't ask for beef ribs!" "What is his plan?" "Hey, little girl. , you haven’t finished speaking yet, what’s going on with this chef?”

Ji Shanqing, who was repeatedly called a little girl, slowly took Lin Sanjiu two steps forward. He has no gender, and naturally has no gender consciousness. His every move does not carry any socially defined gender customs; his behavior and temperament are as natural and pure as all things that occur naturally. On the contrary, it makes people feel that they can lean either way.

"If we order beef ribs, we'll do so at our own risk, right?" He asked the chef first.

"of course."

"Then don't want it." Ji Shanqing looked at everyone's plates and said, "Now there is only one combination starting with 4, and of course I still want chicken sausage."

"...4132," Morihei hesitated and waved to the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, "Come here, you will be full soon."

He chose to take care of the young man who was not in his own camp, so Li Xing immediately protested - but Morihei turned a deaf ear to it, and with Ji Shanqing and Lin Sanjiu by his side, Li Xing finally managed to hold back his anger and watched the young man stand on the Dinner plate sign.

"Although the meat skewers will be useless to you next time, you still send someone to get them." Ji Shanqing ordered, "The meat skewers are quick to eat and are suitable for stimulating the effect. Have you discovered now that every day The effect of 'determining the type of next piece of meat' is triggered between two combinations."

Morihei frowned, seeming to relive the memory in his mind.

"For example, when we queued up for barbecue for the first time, the two combinations 4213 and 3412 appeared first. Do you think about it? My sister and I just finished our lamb leg after 3412, so the chef called us Deciding what meat would come out next, we chose 4 at that time, which was chicken sausage.”

"Since then, I have paid attention. I found that using 4 numbers as a partition to determine the type of meat next will always appear between two 4-number combinations. In other words, if we can By eating the roast at the end of one combination and before the next one begins, you are more likely to be in control of what number starts the next combination.”

"But in this case, I also stimulated an effect between the two combinations, but it is not the decision-making power..." Green spoke hesitantly.

"The decision-making power for the next combination always occurs between two combinations, and the decision-making power appears between two combinations. These are two different things." Ji Shanqing said this and sighed: "Logic We still need to strengthen.”

Green thought for a moment. "Since the purpose of getting meat skewers is to eat," she raised a hand and walked behind the boy: "Then let me do it! I'm prone to hunger, and you all know it."

Although everyone was constantly burning with faint anxiety, it was true that even the meat skewers had no effect on them, so everyone was willing to show off their style and let pregnant women line up to get the meat skewers.

Morihei finally couldn't help it anymore: "I also noticed later that if the meat is replaced by numbers, then it can be divided according to the arrangement and combination of 4 numbers. But..."

Ji Shanqing interrupted him: "If each number only appears once in the combination, then there are only 24 sorted combinations of 4 numbers, which means a total of 96 pieces of meat."

"Yes--" Morihei hesitated.

"But the chef said he has 100 pieces of meat here!" Little Fatty Li Xing shouted. At this time, the boy also got the chicken sausage, filled up four pieces of the same barbecue, and successfully passed the level as the third place.

"That's right. You all still want to know why it was better not to grill the beef ribs just now. To explain these two issues, you have to start from the beginning." Ji Shanqing said, pointing to the tall man and asking He goes to claim a leg of lamb - which will make him the fourth person to clear the level. The young woman who also had three legs of mutton naturally looked unconvinced, but in the end she pursed her lips and said nothing, and just stared at Ge blankly.

"I just said that this beach barbecue event is a confrontation between us and the chef, right? Since it is a confrontation between two sides, the chef must have a weapon in his hand. The chef's weapon is, one, he knows that the pattern of barbecue appearance is 4 numbers Arrange and combine; second, when conditions permit, he can decide which piece of meat appears, and thus determines which combination appears; third, he has four extra pieces of barbecue; fourth, he knows when he will get it acid."

"The four extra pieces of barbecue?" Lin Sanjiu asked, "Does it mean that a certain combination will appear twice?"

"That kind of usage is too wasteful." Ji Shanqing crossed his arms and raised his chin at Morihei: "At first you thought you needed to calculate the probability of each type of meat, but then you realized something was wrong and realized the arrangement and combination of barbecue. But then you abandoned this correct answer, why?”

"That's because," Morihei replied, "after I discovered the combination, the barbecue that appeared did not match the order of the combination."

"Yes, the first one that appeared was 1243, which were meat skewers, beef ribs, chicken sausages and lamb legs." Ji Shanqing smiled, "But what actually appeared was 122143... You should have figured it out now, right? ?The extra 21 in this combination comes from the four extra pieces of meat. In order to balance the probability, the extra meat is still one piece, that is, 1234."

"That's not right, I originally thought about the distance!" Morihei was quite unconvinced, "But after we eat the barbecue, it sometimes triggers the effect of throwing away the barbecue... So in order to keep the number combination intact, the chef has four extra pieces Doesn’t it make sense for barbecue to fill in the gap of barbecue we lost?”

"This is where you got distracted."

Ji Shanqing was not surprised. He watched Green get the meat skewers and signaled her to wait before eating. Then he continued: "You think, for example, in the combination 1234, we initially inspired to throw away the third piece of meat. The effect, that is to say, 3 is lost. Then after all 12 are baked, according to your theory, the excess 3 will be filled in, and the combination of 1234 will still be formed. This is equivalent to the effect that we finally stimulated, being balanced out - Thinking about it this way, what is the meaning of the meat-throwing effect triggered at the beginning? And if we throw away more than 4 pieces of meat, how can the chef keep the combination intact? Since we have invalidated the meat because of non-compliance with the rules It’s just invalid, why do we need to replenish the meat we throw away? If you think deeply, you will find many loopholes.”

The chef started grilling meat, Ge stood on the plate sign, and the young woman also quietly moved a step towards the barbecue grill.

"In fact, when the chef realizes that someone has discovered the pattern of roasting meat, he will add extra meat to make us think that we are wrong. This is one of his weapons."

After looking around at everyone, Ji Shanqing took his hand out of his arms, put it in front of his chest, and said, "If you write down every number combination that has appeared so far, it will be very clear. In the combination 1243 , there are 21 more in the middle, becoming 122143; in the combination of 3214, there are 34 more, becoming 332144. It is precisely because of these two combinations that I discovered that chefs have a tendency to make the same barbecue appear as continuously as possible... …After 332144, I bet that the next combination he will choose starts with 4, so it looks like chicken sausage appears three times in a row, which is even more confusing.”

"It's baked!" the chef shouted - at the same moment, Ji Shanqing suddenly raised his hands, forming a lens shape, and pointed it at the young woman.

The young woman just happened to rush towards Ge at this time, as if she wanted to snatch the roast off the moment he took the leg of mutton without warning; but she never expected that she would actually hit the air head first. It was pressed firmly on the chest, and even the contents of his plate were thrown to the sand. She tried kicking a few times, but found that she couldn't cross the box drawn by Ji Shanqing, and her face turned pale with anger: "Let me out!"

"To be honest, I don't really care who clears the level first and who passes it later." Ji Shanqing watched Ge successfully become the fourth person to clear the level, and said slowly: "But I don't allow you to waste time."

"Are you really an object?" Green asked coldly, "How could there be an object like you?"

Ji Shanqing obviously had no intention of explaining. "You and Crane decide who gets the steak. But no matter who gets it, you're going to start eating the skewers."

Green quickly turned around and smiled at Crane: "Give me this piece."

"Why?" Crane asked coldly, "Don't say it's because I'm about to teleport."

What Green was about to say was blocked by him, and his smile became a little fiercer: "Don't forget, I have an effect that I haven't used yet. I can decide which piece of meat will be thrown away after the chicken sausage appears. ...If you go to get the next piece, then I happen to remember that it is the 28th piece of meat after the chicken sausage."

Ji Shanqing sighed slightly, walked up to Kelan, and whispered a few words - it seemed that he had persuaded him to stop him from getting angry and causing trouble with Green.

In this way, Green got his third piece of beef ribs while eating the meat skewers. She once again inspired the effect of "What kind of meat is the next piece of meat?" This time, Ji Shanqing emphasized his tone: "Choose the combination starting with 3 and let him roast the leg of lamb next time."

"Why?" Green couldn't get the barbecue twice in a row anyway, so he said "lamb leg" to the chef calmly.

The young woman was already standing on the sign with great joy. Coincidentally, after she successfully passed the level and became the fifth person to collect the barbecue, the chef suddenly put down the shovel, shook his hand, and announced: "My hands are sore!"

Morihei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.

Amidst the uproar of the crowd, the chef said again: "I'll try to hold on for a few more minutes, please hurry up."

"There has never been a combination starting with 2, don't you think it's strange?" Only now did Morihei really show a relieved look, and he even spoke more briskly and patiently.

"I have to write down all the combinations to know..." Lin Sanjiu replied a little embarrassed. She just realized that the combination starting with 2 has not appeared yet.

"Excluding the combinations starting with 2, there are only 4 combinations left, which just requires the chef to continue baking for about 2-3 minutes." Ji Shanqing explained to his sister.

"Could it be that -" the dark-skinned woman suddenly realized, "after all the other combinations are used up, the chef will stop because of sore hands? He will not bake the entire combination starting with 2?"

Ji Shanqing nodded.

"We have few weapons against chefs, and each one has to be discovered on our own. Even if we are aware of the rules of number combinations, in most cases, we do not know which combination is about to appear. For example, starting with 3 combination, although now there are only 3124 and 3142 left, we will not be sure which combination appears until the third piece of meat."

"What should we do?" This time, the person assigned to get the meat skewers was the little fat man Li Xing. "I'm going to get two more chicken sausages."

"It depends on eating meat to stimulate the effect."

Ji Shanqing looked calm and calm, "We can all resolve the chef's first three weapons - or advantages, right? First, we can discover patterns through the order of groups of four and four; second, we can resolve them , we can eat meat to stimulate the effect and seize the initiative from the chef; third, the number combination is only 2 in total, but we know that he has four pieces of meat in his hand, which can be inserted... Thinking about it this way, the chef's last advantage is, In other words, he knows when his hands are sore and how to resolve them?"

"He...he left out all combinations starting with 2 as a reminder." Mr. Ito suddenly murmured not far away.

"Yes, the beach barbecue leaves a way for participants to survive, and controls the power of both parties in a relatively balanced state." Ji Shanqing motioned to Li Xing to eat the barbecue skewers immediately, and explained: "If we If we proactively ask him to bake a combination starting with 2, then when his hands are sore, it will remain the same. There are still five combinations that he will not bake, but our choices suddenly increase to five... and we are even more unable to decide."

At this moment, Morihei walked up to the two of them and asked Lin Sanjiu softly: "Are you still going to stay? Aren't you going back to the villa?"

Lin Sanjiu, who had been thinking about the gift package, raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this: "The event is not over yet..."

"For your own sake, it's better to go back now." Morihei smiled lightly, "The confrontation between you and me just now was out of necessity, so I don't take it seriously. But we are both absolutely safe now. No need to take any more chances here.”

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but turn around and glance at the gift bag. The latter happened to turn his head at this time and nodded slightly to her, seeming to have heard what Senping had just said; before he could speak, the effect stimulated by Li Xing came out.

"Throw away one of the next ten roasts," the cook said a little listlessly. "You can decide which one."

This is the same effect that Ji Shanqing inspired before - everyone was quiet for two seconds, as if they were letting this sentence sink into their minds. When they all figured out the meaning of this effect, they seemed to be shocked by a stone; everyone rushed forward and shouted to Li Xing: "Throw the kebab!" "No, no, that's useless, throw it." Beef ribs!”

"Let's leave now," Libao secretly whispered in Lin Sanjiu's ear. While everyone was shocked and confused, he turned around and pulled her back. When she looked up, she found that Senping was already far away. He ran towards another set of steps on the beach and turned into a small figure; by going up that set of steps, he would probably be able to return to Villa F10 soon.

"But Mr. Ito hasn't gathered it yet—"

"Sister," Libao smiled bitterly, "He probably won't be able to pass safely... There's going to be blood here soon, we'd better leave as soon as possible."

Libao's combat power is not high, and he has been trying to be the first. If he continues to stay here, it will be very dangerous for him. Lin Sanjiu hesitated for a few seconds, then made up her mind, and simply picked him up, sped up and rushed towards the steps where she came from, and asked, "Why can't Mr. Ito get together?"

The gift bag tightly wrapped around her neck, his forehead pressed against her shoulder, and his robe billowed up and down in the night. "Among the remaining people, what they need are 2 and 4 two kinds of barbecue, beef ribs and chicken sausages. 1 and 3 are useless to them. Even if Li Xing throws away one of them, it will not help. They determine which combination appears."

When Lin Sanjiu saw this, she suddenly understood everything - in a moment of fright, she looked back and found that the people who were huddled and arguing just now, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net In just ten short seconds, In a few seconds, two distinct sides were formed: one side was Li Xing, the dark-skinned woman and Ito, and the other side was only Green. The remaining few people stood far away.

"I understand," she said softly, "Ito and the others all need chicken sausage, so they must throw away the beef ribs. In this way, they can determine which combination is being grilled..."

"But there are three people who all need 2 chicken sausages. That is to say, the total barbecue they need is only 4 chicken sausages. Even if Mr. Ito successfully grabs 2 chicken sausages, he will not be able to save three more chicken sausages later. The barbecue guy put him at the bottom..."

Lin Sanjiu almost forgot that one of the rules introduced by the chef at the time was "the last three people who collect enough barbecue will be eliminated."

"No wonder Morihei wants to leave..." She murmured and looked back. The boy's shadow still stood on the beach. "No wonder the three of them don't leave!"

"Although they have gathered together the barbecue, it is not yet safe, so they have to stay to ensure that there are people behind to continue to gather the barbecue." Ji Shanqing sighed softly, "Those people actually no longer need to grab the meat. Victory or defeat is now decided.”

Even though I tried my best, I still couldn't get Mr. Ito ashore safely... This feeling is really uncomfortable. Even if Mr. Ito is not her responsibility, she clearly promised to help; now that she has to leave him first, Lin Sanjiu feels like she owes him something - maybe she can help him get a villa ?

As she hurried back to her villa, an idea emerged from the depths of her mind.

... Crane, who was about to be teleported away, also needed beef ribs, but he was not on the beach just now.

Where has he gone?
