Blackstone Code

Chapter 1381: champion

From the very beginning, the host told everyone, the contestants, the live audience and the audience in front of the TV, that the answers listed on the cards are all things around people.

Whether it is animals, plants, or various utensils, it will not be far away from the scope of people's lives.

Otherwise, just throw in some rare plants, animals, or something that only few people know about, and this game will not be played.

Every contestant knows this rule. In fact, they have obtained a clue for free, that is, these answers are always around them, and they are often seen and encountered in life.

It won't be something unpopular, which is why this show is so popular.

Viewers don't like to watch scientists talk about some top science and technology issues in the program, they only like to watch programs that they can understand.

At least it gives them a chance to play some tricks in front of their family—

"Hey, I **** know what the answer is!"

At the same time, ordinary answers can also avoid boring, and people will participate more in it, which brings more attention to the program.

At this time, what Harry is thinking about is the things around the human living environment. What is alive and we won't eat it?

There are just a few types, and most of them belong to one category—pets!

The most common animals are cats and dogs. Some people in the west like to raise snakes and lizards, and horses are also "pets" in people's lives.

So how to define the classification of these pets, so that you can quickly reduce the scope to the minimum?

In fact, there are many skills and choices in it, and Harry fell into a long silence.

Not having received a good education does not necessarily mean that this person is a fool. Although Harry has not received a higher education, he is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very shrewd and quick to respond.

The soundtrack in the studio makes the atmosphere very depressing, making people tense up involuntarily, which is also to enhance the atmosphere.

There's only one chance, Harry asked after close to three minutes of thought, "How many legs does it have!"

In the next second, many people in the audience in the studio stood up directly. They couldn't believe that Harry actually asked such a... sharp question.

Yes, sometimes you think this question is stupid, but sometimes, the effect of these stupid questions is very scary.

Contestant number one's expression was hard to maintain, because Harry was already close to his answer, he thought Harry would ask "Is this thing a pet" or something.

Unexpectedly, he skipped the question and asked him how many legs this thing has.

Contestant No. 1 didn't want to answer this question very much, but there was no good way to avoid it.

Harry was getting closer and closer to his answer, but I was still some distance away from Harry's answer.

Finally, he gave a number, "It has two legs."

In the auditorium and in front of the TV, some people couldn't sit still, especially those with a little brain.

The family pet, two-legged, has pretty much locked onto several animals!

The host realized this too, asking Harry, "Do you need to tell me what is written on the card in his hand?"

Harry shook his head, "I'm not sure yet."

Number One is staring at Harry, and he's getting more and more stressed, and the way this game is, when you don't ask enough questions to give you a definitive clue, you're far behind.

Now facing the number one player, if he maintains his current speed and walks towards the answer step by step, it is very likely that he will not be able to catch up with Harry's speed.

He had to be aggressive and ask some clearly directional questions directly, only in this way could he catch up with the "progress" of the question and answer, and ensure that he was at least not left too far behind by Harry.

But at the same time, there is actually a problem here, that is, once the question he raises does not point in the right direction, it means that the distance between him and Harry has widened further.

Judging from the current points, the No. 1 player is obviously more, but in terms of the progress of the question and answer, he has already fallen behind.

He began to think, began to hesitate, and had difficulty making a decision.

This is often the case with people. The more they think, the more they fear certain choices they have to make.

After almost three minutes, he took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

If he doesn't chase, the chances are very slim, so he has to give it a try.

Is there something that is sometimes accessible in the morning and sometimes not?

The first thing people come into contact with every morning is the bed, bathroom, shower, and various toiletries. This is a bit suspicious.

Then there are clothes, which are worn every day, underwear...

Contestant No. 1 became a little unsure when thinking of this, his wife sometimes doesn't wear underwear, especially in summer, she feels that wearing underwear is like hell.

He himself sometimes doesn't wear them, which makes for more suspicious targets.

Then there is breakfast, which is also very suspicious, because sometimes people eat breakfast, and sometimes they don’t eat it because they don’t have time.

Then there is work.

bus?

be late?

Damn, that's too much!

If it wasn't for the wrong direction of the last question, he should have locked one of the big categories by now and started to ask more detailed questions!

Harry's first two choices were very ordinary, maybe a bit biased, but still ordinary...

Number One scratched his scalp, then glanced at Harry again, fists clenched.

He decided to take a gamble.

Compared with underwear, toiletries, and the way of going to work, everyone is less likely to be in an uncertain state due to living habits.

The only thing that can be uncertain even in decades of life seems to be breakfast.

He swallowed, "Is this...something related to breakfast?"

Harry nodded slightly, "Yes."

In fact, there is no point in catching up at this time. The other party needs at least two questions to catch up with him.

And he, it is possible to ask another question, and he can kill the other party.

Under the questioning of the host, No. 1 did not come up with an accurate answer, and entered the next round.

At this time, the range is actually very, very small for Harry. One is not enough, and two are needed to explain its situation.

Does anyone keep chickens as pets, let them off the TV, ducks, geese, what else?

yes, bird.

Pigeons, falcons, parrots, these are relatively common pets that can fly.

Harry's logical thinking became more and more clear, and he didn't think about it for too long, "Can it fly?"

Number one's expression became even worse, he nodded reluctantly, "Yes, it can fly."

There were already celebrations on the sidelines, as Harry's parents and his siblings gathered, and they knew that a million dollars was enough to change their lives!

Even give them the right to pursue their dreams!

Many people are praying, praying that Harry can win, not because of their good intentions, but because they have invested a lot of money on Harry.

No. 1 is in a bad mood right now. After he catches up with him aggressively, he can only continue to chase. Now he is constantly choosing between the two, screening out all possible wrong answers.

"Can it be eaten?"

Harry shook his head, "It can't be eaten."

It has something to do with breakfast, but you can't eat it, dining room, table, chairs, vases, utensils, tableware, kitchen utensils.

Hell, there are so many more!

Soon it was Harry's turn, at which point there was no more choice, "Is it a predator?"

Contestant number one shook his head, "No, it's not."

Then he asked his own question, "Is it glass?"

Glass products and iron products are two big categories. Now he can't find that one, so he can only exclude from the most common glass category.

Harry shook his head, and the power of questioning shifted to Harry, who asked, "Is it..."

He hesitated for a moment, the pigeon, the parrot, choose one of the two.

In this period of the Commonwealth, there were actually more pigeons than parrots, so he hesitated. Originally he wanted to ask if that thing was a pigeon, but he hesitated.

If it were him, he would not choose pigeons, because they are too common, and what they have to do is to mislead others as much as possible.

He tentatively asked, "Is it a parrot?"

Contestant No. 1's fists were clenched tightly, and his body was tense, as if... suddenly fell ill.

But soon, his body became normal again, and then he raised his head, showing an extremely ugly smile.

At this moment, the entire federation, any place with a TV, fell silent for an instant.

Those who were arguing aloud with their families about what the answer really was also paused and stared at their screens.

The guys who can never lift their pants shut their rhythmic mouths and stare at the screen.

When a "yes" came from the mouth of contestant No. 1, everyone exclaimed in an instant!

The host also stood up with surprise on his face, and walked between the two of them.

"Congratulations, Harry, you've won."

"Next ~lightnovelpub.net~ is your time!"

Then the host brought Harry to Studio No. 1. A special carpet had been laid on the floor, and there were many employees of Blackstone Security around.

Harry was standing directly under the glass box, and suddenly a thin layer of something hung down around the glass box.

In the voice of the host, "Congratulations to Harry for winning the first season championship", cash rushed from above like a waterfall.

Whether it was the audience at the scene or the audience in front of the TV outside the venue, their heartbeats began to speed up at this moment, adrenaline was secreted rapidly, and their eyeballs turned red!

so much money!

Damn, how good would it be if I were the champion?

Some spectators at the scene even stood up and tried to jump in over the guardrail, but when they saw the employees of Blackstone Security, they suddenly became sober.

The host walked up to Harry and asked a question, "How does it feel to be hit by a million dollars?"
