Blackstone Code

Chapter 1377: this is alive

Living on the fringes of the city, Harry has seen things that most people haven't seen since he was a child, such as cheating in card games.

Even though everyone knew that cheating at those gang-run poker games could have dire consequences, someone would do it anyway.

Because I lost my eyes.

When people lose to the end, their mentality collapses, and they don't care about anything, and cheating becomes their only way to get back their money.

One of the easiest ways Harry knew was to mark the sides and backs of the cards, a method... almost everyone in the part of his life knew.

He didn't dare to make such an obvious mark on the back of the card, so he could only wet a little bit with sweat on the side.

If the next player also thinks that yellow is very important, it means that the color card is not a misleading card, and what it and other cards that can form a clue chain point to is the most likely correct answer.

However, if his next player also gave up the color card, it means that it is worthless in the eyes of the two.

The card went smoothly into the next player's hand. Harry glanced at it, and the other person's expression changed slightly, and then he placed the card between his two cards.

Harry looked at the card that was passed down from his previous family, took it lightly in his hand, and was taken aback for a second.

A clean white playing card with a circle of red lines and the words…

"Headline!"

The more clues, the more confused it is, which is normal, because there are some specially used to mislead. After all, this is a competition. The competition is not about how high your education is, but the most basic logical thinking ability, and Cognition of life and society!

Those who can become the monthly champions have a very unusual perspective on this society, so they have a greater advantage than those who failed in a certain way!

But this card plunged Harry into deep confusion.

He didn't know whether this was a "true card" deliberately given to him by the previous player, or a "misleading card" used to deceive him.

He has sorted the two cards.

After seeing "Yellow", "Green", "Box", "Supermarket", "Medical", "Project", "Soil", "Sunshine", "Pellets", he sees the tenth card —

"Headline!"

The exclamation point made his brain feel like he was hit by a baseball bat, and his whole brain was buzzing.

The host turned over the last public card, "Honey".

The cheap host didn't seem to be affected by those tensions at all, and he continued to maintain his bombastic hosting style.

In fact, this just complements the tense, lack of communication, and seemingly boring game.

Of course, for many people it is not boring. For example, in some luxuriously decorated rooms, those upper class people are also discussing these.

It's just that they see all the clues, so they are more intuitive than the players.

In order to ensure that the competition is fair, the finals are actually held in a special room.

The audience can see what's going on inside, but the people inside don't know what's outside.

This also made many viewers feel that these questions are easy, as long as they are individuals, they will definitely be able to answer them.

Even at the scene, some people discussed their answers with the audience around them.

A: "It must be... medicine. I have seen it before. They don't know how to do such a simple question. I should take it instead!"

B: "So what are soil and sunlight?"

A: "You are embarrassing me!"

At this time, Harry found that someone was already writing the answer board, and they could actually turn the cards one more time, which was the last time.

But it was obvious that some people couldn't wait any longer. Harry was completely at a loss. These clues kept flashing in his mind, but he still couldn't find a result that he was sure it was the answer!

Meanwhile, in a small room, the girl who lost to Harry in the first month competition and was resurrected and finished is suffering round after round.

She was working, and the thick makeup made her almost invisible.

Because of this show, more people know her, which is actually not a good thing.

People always think of people who have been on TV as "stars", but obviously not everyone expresses them in a friendly way.

Some people came here just for the name, and they played too much, as if they wanted to hurt her and hurt her for fun.

Others ask embarrassing questions—

Even being in this kind of industry is not unbearable for her, but she can't bear the questions raised by some guests. From this, one can imagine how cruel the questions raised by those guests are!

In the end, she had to change places and cover herself with heavy makeup.

There is a TV in the room, and she has some income now, so she can buy some better clothes and open a better room, so the fee will be higher.

"This idiot..." she said suddenly.

The guests behind were a little surprised, "Are you talking about me?"

The girl bit her lip and pointed to the TV, "I mean...they."

The guest immediately became interested, he also likes this show, who can not like it?

Everyone participates in the man-made millionaire. Although the millionaire prize belongs to only one person in the end, this process gives people unparalleled enjoyment.

"You know the answer..."

The girl nodded, although her current posture was quite unsightly.

The man stopped suddenly, turned around and picked up the wallet on the bedside, took out five ten-yuan bills from it, and pasted them on her sweat-drenched body one by one.

"If you're right..."

"These are extra tips!"

As he spoke, the girl was hit hard and almost fell on the bed. She gritted her teeth and said something...

At this time, Harry on TV had given up, he just wrote something he thought was similar, and was about to hand it in.

At this moment, he was very disappointed with himself. He thought he was ready, but he found that the ideal was so beautiful that he ignored the distance between himself and the ideal.

If this is the case in every subsequent round, he can't guarantee how many answers he gets right.

The silent responses of the others made him feel heavy pressure. He didn't know what touched which nerve. When the host asked him, "Have you stopped thinking about it?", he suddenly withdrew the answering board.

Yes Yes!

He knows!

All the known clues in the mind were touched by the past scene at this moment, and began to be stitched together naturally.

More than ten years ago, an epidemic targeting children broke out in the Commonwealth. It is said that many people died at that time, and many people were permanently disabled as a result.

Soon medical institutions developed a targeted vaccine. Considering that more people could be immune to the disease through it, under the intervention of the federal government, this vaccine was made into sugar tablets!

It's packaged with a tree, a sun, and a few kids standing in the grass holding hands!

The sugar pieces inside come in many colors, green, yellow, red...

Toutiao has reported on the epidemic and its vaccine more than once, and it is also the first granular drug to be sold in supermarkets with the approval of the Drug Administration Committee!

The point is, it's sweet!

This may be one of the few times Harry tasted sweet things when he was a child, so that until now, he can't forget the sweet taste that can enter his heart!

He wrote the name of the drug on the answer board and handed it over. At this time, his face was full of confidence.

The host looked at the answer board and was a little surprised, "Wow, there are actually three people who answered correctly. It seems that the question is too simple, or are you too smart?"

He smiled and showed four answer boards to the camera, and only one person got it wrong.

Harry froze for a moment, he thought he might be the only one who got the answer right, but in the end, he was only one of the three.

This also means that the other two people who answered correctly may have more crucial clues.

He has a renewed feeling for the gameplay of this game, the in-depth gameplay.

If you can't get the key clues, you will mislead your next family, at least you can influence a person's choice.

At the same time, he also realized the importance of "cheating". If he could cheat from the beginning, maybe he could find some clues earlier.

But no matter what, at least he won this round, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said "congratulations" to the other winning teammates hypocritically, and at the same time comforted the only player who lost.

He wasn't so hypocritical before, but since he participated in this show, since he wanted to get that one million, he has become hypocritical, and he didn't even realize it.

After the host adjusted the points for them, he put a basket of packaged poker on the table, "There are a total of forty-nine packs of decks in here, plus the ones we used just now are fifty packs."

"Starting with the only person we got wrong, we blindly choose our questions, and continue to change players in a clockwise manner."

"We will have a total of at least twelve rounds and a maximum of twenty-four rounds."

"Now it's the second round, the way of the turn card has changed from counterclockwise~lightnovelpub.net~to clockwise..."

The host looked at the guy who answered the wrong question, "You can choose one..."

"Before tearing it apart, I actually didn't know what was inside. I was as curious as you!"

The failed contestant flipped over and found that each set was exactly the same. After flipping through several times, he randomly chose one of them and handed it to the host.

The host smiled and pointed to the camera, "Let's take a break and come back later!"

Yes, it was commercial time, and Severella's company logo appeared on the TV screen, and she paid a lot of money.

At this time in the small hotel, the girl was lying on the bed. She had been kneeling for a long time, and her legs were a little numb. The guest had already left.

She looked at the extra fifty yuan in her hand and was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

The commercial on TV is almost over, and the highlight of the one million bills flying in the glass box dazzles the girl's face...
