A host came up from the stands, he took the microphone and briefly described the preliminary round process, and the contestants stood in a staggered order according to the numbers they gave, which was to prevent those who had a heart from passing the test in confusion.

All the electronic devices in the hands of the contestants were handed in, and the preliminary round officially began.

Sun Mohan was standing in the front position, Xia Qiuyu and Qian Xiaoxiao were in the back position, a bell rang, and a reasoning question appeared on the instrument, and the contestants began to answer the question, with a time limit of ten minutes.

"One day, a valuable diamond was stolen from a jewelry store. After investigation, it was ascertained that the perpetrators must be among A, B, C, and D. As a result, the four major suspects were interrogated. The following statements were obtained at trial:

A: I'm not a crime.

B: D is a criminal.

C: B is the criminal who stole the diamond.

Ding: I wasn't the one who committed the crime.

It was verified that only one of the confessions of the four people was false. So, which of the following is the correct outcome to solve the case?

(A) A commits the crime.

(B) B commits the crime.

(C) C commits the offence.

(D) D. Committing the crime.

(E) A, B, C, and D committed the crime together. ”

Sun Mohan looked at the question that appeared on his instrument, thought about it slightly, and got the answer.

Ten minutes later, according to the background records, the host announced that there were a total of 130 and 5 finalists, and the names of these 135 people were displayed on the big screen in the stands, and Sun Mohan Xia Qiuyu and Qian Xiaoxiao both successfully passed the preliminary round.

There are more than 700 contestants in this unknown reasoning competition, and only one in seven people was eliminated in the preliminary round, which shows that most reasoning enthusiasts are interested in it, but there is no real material.

Next, enter the semi-final stage, and the players who advance enter the designated area for answering the questions according to the number, and they still answer the questions through the instrument, but the question type has changed, the reasoning questions in the preliminary round are multiple-choice questions, and the reasoning questions in the semi-finals have no answers for you to choose from, and you need to answer them through the instrument deduction.

The eliminated contestants and the reasoning enthusiasts who did not participate were arranged on the periphery of the designated area, and more than a dozen security guards in charge of order began to appear at the scene, and the noise gradually dissipated.

A total of three questions must be answered in the semi-finals, and only those who answer correctly will be eligible for the emergency finals, and the total number of finalists is 10, if the number of players who pass the semi-finals exceeds 10, an additional question will be added to determine the final 10-person roster.

It's still the same, in the semi-final stage, the three questions on each player's instrument are different, and the difficulty coefficient is medium.

And the webcast that Sun Mohan has been looking forward to will not start until the finals.

A few minutes later, the rematch officially began.

There are three questions on the instrument in Sun Mohan's hand, and the question types are divided into three categories, a detective reasoning question, a graphical reasoning question, and a logic reasoning question.

Sun Mohan glanced at it roughly, the difficulty was indeed greater than the question in the preliminary round, but after having the skill of "one-star reasoning master", he could quickly make the most direct judgment on the topic in his brain.

This feeling is very magical, for the topic, the brain only needs to think a little, some clues and inspiration will suddenly come out, and then help yourself find the most accurate feeling.

These three reasoning questions are really easy for Sun Mohan, who has reasoning skills, but Sun Mohan has encountered a difficulty, that is, he is not very good at deducting words.

It's not that it won't be deducted, it's just that the hand speed is too slow, and the time limit for the three questions is also ten minutes, Sun Mohan took five minutes to answer the first question, and it took five minutes to deduct more than a dozen words.

Sun Mohan already had the answers to the remaining two questions in his heart, but after estimating it, he would have to deduct at least thirty or forty words.

There are only five minutes left in the time, and Sun Mohan is extremely envious of those online street writers in his previous life who can deduct five or six thousand words in an hour.

Who can help labor and management deduct the word, summon the power of the deduction!

Seeing that the time was slowly passing, Sun Mohan had to raise his hand to the host in the stands, and then said loudly: "Host, can you come and help me deduct the word?"

The host's face froze, he blinked, and walked towards Sun Mohan's position.

Sun Mohan embarrassedly sold a cute look at the players who looked at him: "I'm smiling, I'm a little handicapped." ”

Laughing, Sun Mohan unexpectedly gained more than 1,000 cute favor points, I really didn't expect these seemingly cold reasoning lovers, it turns out that most people have a warm heart.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who look at Sun Mohan with disdain, such as the boy with glasses on Sun Mohan's left, he seems to have already finished answering the question, with his hands on his chest, looking like he is watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, Sun Mohan's approach just now made him quite disdainful, so he said softly: "Grandstanding!"

Sun Mohan heard these four words, but he didn't react immediately, just smiled coldly.

The host came to Sun Mohan's side, Sun Mohan was a cute one at hand, the host smiled and began to help him deduct the words, in fact, there are unreasonable places in any competition system, such as deducting words, although it is quite easy for adults, but for a child, it is indeed very difficult.

The host's deduction speed is quite fast, it is done in just two minutes, and after ten minutes, the rematch is over.

The next time is the backstage review and statistics time, and after half an hour, the organizer will count the results, and the list of finalists will appear on the big screen.

If there are more than 10 players who qualify, there will be an additional round until the top 10 players are determined.

During the counting time, the contestants began to walk around each other and discuss the reasoning questions they encountered, and Qian Xiaoxiao and Xia Qiuyu came to Sun Mohan's side.

Xia Qiuyu's face was calm and breezy, and she looked like she was in her chest, and Qian Xiaoxiao didn't look worried, presumably they were all full of confidence in their respective finals.

"Brother Mohan, how did you answer just now?" Xia Qiuyu asked with a slight blink.

Sun Mohan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just that the speed of deducting words is a little slower." ”

Qian Xiaoxiao said: "The organizer is unreasonable in this setting, the device should develop a handwriting or voice function, if the contestants are disabled, how do you let them deduct words." ”

Sun Mohan and Xia Qiuyu both nodded secretly, and at this time, the man with glasses to Sun Mohan's left suddenly sneered and said, "Only the weak will be picky about the competition system, and the real strong don't need a reason." ”

Qian Xiaoxiao's eyes lit slightly, and he looked at the man with glasses, about seventeen or eighteen years old, thin and tall, with a face full of war acne.

"What do we talk about you, you can close your ears if you don't like to listen. Qian Xiaoxiao snorted.

The man with glasses said disdainfully: "The truth is not clear, since I have a pair of ears that can listen, why don't I listen, since I have a mouth that can speak, why can't I speak?"

"You ......" Qian Xiaoxiao was a little short of words, and the other party still seemed to be a good sophist.

Sun Mohan wanted to stand up and educate this glasses man, but before he could stand up, Xia Qiuyu suddenly smiled slightly: "Listen to what you mean, do you seem to be very strong?"

The man with glasses glanced at Xia Qiuyu and said, "What do you think?"

Before Xia Qiuyu could answer, the man with glasses suddenly raised his chest and said: "I am here for the championship, in the vast reasoning world, my Fang Zheng has never served anyone." ”

"It just so happens that I haven't served anyone before, do you dare to try it before the finals?"
