Doomsday Wonderland

At the beginning of the sales meeting, there were hurried footsteps all over the grass and gravel roads, and the air was filled with muffled conversations and faint tension... However, after the first ten minutes, everyone seemed to have become a group of people. The confused sheep behind the shepherd gradually slowed down, not knowing what to do next.

Because the prompts were very simple, by this time, everyone had already walked through the six stalls, and almost everyone, like Lin Sanjiu, realized the same problem.

"The teaching materials at booth No. 1 must be replaced with the underwear at booth No. 6. The underwear at booth No. 6 must be replaced with the wall clock at booth No. 4. The wall clock at booth No. 4 must be replaced with the car GPS at booth No. 3. The car GPS at the stall needs to be replaced with "February Snow" from stall No. 5..."

The middle-aged woman in the pink dress had a pretty good memory. Surrounded by several evolvers, she sorted out the order of the stalls and items one by one with her fingers: "The "February Snow" at stall No. 5 needs to be used. I want to change the shoes at stall No. 2, but the shoes at stall No. 2 have already been bought!”

"Isn't this a closed loop? The only opening is the pair of shoes..." said the tall man in his forties or fifties.

"Only when you get that pair of shoes can you exchange them one by one?" The girl with long black hair frowned and said, "But even so, you can only exchange for one thing in the end..."

The more people talked, the more questions they had, and for a while they couldn't figure out the reason. The wife simply asked the No. 2 stall owner in a loud voice: "Hey, at what price did you sell your pair of shoes?"

"A special item," Stall No. 2 replied with a smile. "It is so precious that it must cause physical pain when parting with it."

"I'm confused," the skinny boy sighed. "There are only three winning items, but the prompts point to six different items. And only the person who bought the shoes can replace the same item... What's going on? What's going on? What should we do?"

Lin Sanjiu has thought about this problem several times; unfortunately, he has left all his consciousness in the "Dream of Transferring to One Hundred Thousand Worlds" and only has a little "train money" left, so now he can't even get a mimicry gift pack.

"Yes, isn't it said that there are three winning items?" The husband of the couple said with a bit of anxiety: "Three of the six items must be wrong answers. But this still does not solve the problem of shoes... "

"Who took the shoes?" The man in his forties or fifties finally became anxious, "Who took the shoes? Come forward! Otherwise, you will be discovered when you change things!"

Although this copy does not encourage the use of force, it does not prohibit the use of force; the person who took away the shoe will naturally not stand up in public and become the target of public criticism - as expected, everyone looked at each other with innocent looks on their faces, and no one said anything .

At least they had a head start... Lin Sanjiu thought to herself.

If the man wanted to change things, he had to start with "February Snow" at booth No. 5; at this time, Bohemia folded her arms and still stood dutifully beside booth No. 5, as if guarding her bones. Dogs are extremely vigilant - when the inconspicuous-looking man walked towards booth No. 5, she immediately turned around and grabbed "February Snow" in her hand.

"Are you finally going to start changing things?" Bohemia asked, looking sideways at him.

Lin Sanjiu, who always kept one eye on Bohemia, reacted immediately; when Bohemia finished speaking, she also walked quickly to the edge of stall No. 5 - as soon as she saw her As soon as he moved, several other evolvers also gathered around him. Standing a few steps away, everyone's eyes were fixed on the man.

Someone even asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Why are everyone surrounding him? Does he have shoes on his hands?"

"No, I'll just... I'll just take a look." The man lowered his eyelids, as if he had done something wrong and didn't dare to look at anyone, and glanced at booth No. 5 from a distance.

"If you have shoes, hand them over and we can work out a solution together. If you don't have shoes, just stand far away," the man in his forties or fifties shouted in a deep voice, "Lest there be a misunderstanding later, it would be bad if you start using your hands." .”

Regardless of whether the shoes were in his hand or not, he was so eye-catching when he was wandering in front of stall No. 5 like this.

This idea seemed to pop up in the minds of Lin Sanjiu and the man at the same time; naturally he would not believe excuses such as "find a solution together", so he waved his hands and stepped back before he could say anything - before he turned around and left, he Finally, he took another look at booth No. 5 and frowned slightly, as if he was looking for something but couldn't find it.

Is there anything wrong at booth number five?

Stall owner No. 5 was urging Bohemia to either pay or put down the book quickly; Lin Sanjiu's eyes moved around the table, but saw nothing: neck pillow, briefcase, stationery set, Half a bottle of perfume... plus "February Snow" was put back in its place, everything was the same as when the stall owner said the reminder.

Thinking of the reminder, stall owner No. 5’s voice naturally rang in his mind: “Which month has 28 days?”

Lin Sanjiu was shocked and realized that she had made a mistake - if not for the many people watching, she would have almost slapped herself on the forehead.

I’ve obviously known the rules a long time ago, so why did I turn a blind eye and not see it now?

The next second she woke up, her [Consciousness Scanning] had been spread out with a change of thought; all the items that were hidden in the corners of the field of vision due to distance and angle were now clearly displayed one by one. in her mind.

The replica creature woman seemed to feel her conscious gaze. Whenever Lin Sanjiu "looked" at a stall, the stall owner would raise his head from under the tent and smile at her.

The prompts from No. 1, No. 2 and No. 5 were all the first ones she asked. They were "Some of us know, some don't know, but we will know if we have questions and answers", "I will carry you." Go ahead, what am I?" and "Which month has 28 days?"

The second is the reminder from booth No. 6, “Although it is with people, sometimes people may not be aware of it and feel familiar with it.” Apart from the brand new pack of underwear, there was nothing else on the table that fit the description.

Among the remaining stalls, the prompt at stall No. 3 is "I direct your coming and going, what am I?" and among the items on the table, there is a car GPS device.

The prompt at booth No. 4 was, "As you turn forward, I grow up." Everyone agreed that the answer must be a wall clock.

As he watched, Lin Sanjiu's [Consciousness Scanning] suddenly returned to booth No. 3.

……found it.

"Bohemia," she called in a deep voice, "just stay here and don't move. The person who has changed his shoes must come, and he can only come to booth No. 5 to change things."

"I'm just waiting here," Bohemia muttered. "What are you doing?"

"It's not an option for everyone to stand frozen like this. Let's go take a look and ask around. Maybe there will be new clues." Lin Sanjiu explained to the faces that turned towards her, and walked towards booth No. 3 with a calm expression. .

When she stood in front of the stall, she could feel that there were people behind her who followed her and stopped after two steps; some stretched their necks to see what she was going to do; others seemed to think she was right and hurried to other places. At the stall, the search process was repeated again - and the man who refused to say anything walked straight to stall No. 3. If he was not afraid of making others alert, looking at his appearance, I'm afraid I wish I could just stride over here.

Lin Sanjiu seemed unaware of him; she stretched out her hand and picked up the work diary with "2022" printed on it on the table.

"It's very new," the copy creature lady seemed to be aroused with a bit of regret. "The new year has just passed a month ago, and I only used it to write down my work schedule for a month. Unexpectedly, I won't be able to use it anymore. .”

Is it because the end has come?

Opening it casually, Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief - this kind of diary, which was printed in advance according to the year, indeed printed every month and every day on the inside page; it seemed that she was right.

Her "What's the price?" and the man's hurried "You're wrong" sounded almost at the same time.

Lin Sanjiu signaled stall owner No. 3 to wait, turned to look at the man who had just approached the stall, and smiled. "How did I get it wrong?"

"The answer to this stall's prompt should be the car's GPS..." The man's voice became softer as he spoke, "If you don't believe me, ask the stall owner..."

"Do you still feel that you are the only one who discovered the problem?" Lin Sanjiu lowered her voice and asked.

The man was startled and stopped talking.

"You and I both know," she said in a very low voice, trying not to draw attention to herself, "that we have both overlooked a blind spot."

The dungeon creature lady said at the beginning that the prompts on every two stalls pointed to the same object. This illustrates two things: first, there are three stalls where the winning items that match the prompts cannot be found; second, the items found must meet two prompts at the same time.

"Using this logic, we can now find something that matches the prompt at every stall, and that thing only matches one prompt, which means that everything we find so far is not a real winning item."

The question "which month has 28 days" is also extremely misleading. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net The question is neither "Which months have 28 days" nor "Which month has only 28 days", so it can have two answers: The standard answer is naturally "Every month has 28 days" ", but it's not wrong to say "February" or any other month - because February does have 28 days.

In this way, when people see that there is only one "February Snow" on the table that matches the prompt, they will naturally have no doubt about it.

"However, if the correct answer is 'every month has 28 days,' then there is no item on booth No. 5 that matches the prompt." Lin Sanjiu explained softly and turned a few more pages. Work diary in hand. "It's such a coincidence that the work diary on booth No. 3 is not only related to the 12 months, but also can really 'indicate the coming and going'... The real winning item is naturally this diary."

The man was really not good at concealing his thoughts. Although he didn't say anything, his expression had already been betrayed by the change in his expression. Lin Sanjiu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them. He lowered his voice and said, "I can give this item to you, and I can even help you raise the price to buy it. And you have already made my request. knew."

As long as he opens his mouth to answer a question, he can immediately get such great benefits. This person should agree by now, right?

The man's face was almost distorted in the process of competing with himself.

"I...I don't know the answer to your question."
