Chapter 1194: Demon Card
"Once the game starts, speak clockwise. The speaker can propose a draw in any way and designate any person to swap with you. β
"The designated person has the right to refuse, but once agreed, both parties must exchange a card with each other. As for which one to swap out, it is up to the picker to decide. The owner can only suggest, not force. β
"From start to finish, each person must complete the exchange at least once. After the exchange, he can't tell the card he gave, that is, no one will know what card he really got in his hand. β
"The game is played in three rounds, and at the end of each round, everyone takes out a card and places it on the table, this time face up. The card that has been put down means that the card that you have 'confirmed to keep' will not have a chance to change it out after that. Therefore, please consider carefully before keeping the card. β
"In the end, the three cards that are still in hand, each person must perform according to the items specified on the card, and if they can't perform, they can only be eliminated. So everyone must do their best to swap out the project cards that you can't do anything about. β
"I forgot to mention that in order to make the game more interesting, in addition to the ordinary demon cards, we also specially designed a 'Demon King Card'," Speaking of this, Shen Antong showed a signature "Little Witch" smile, "It doesn't have any performance items, it directly represents abstention." If you can't swap in the last round, you'll have to abstain. β
Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't cry or laugh for a while.
This rule is really bad fun...... If you get the Demon King card in the first round, you have already lost half of it.
No, wait...... But if you don't get the Demon King card until the third round, it's even worse, and they can refuse to exchange the card of unknown origin with you when everyone else has already completed a card draw!
In this way, if you are not initially assigned a Demon King card, it seems that the best strategy is to minimize card swaps-
According to the existing rules, everyone analyzed the best strategy, and Yin Yebei was also thinking about it, although this kind of IQ game was not his specialty.
If you stick to the first two rounds without a draw, others will know that you have a good card. In the third round, you have to change, and you will probably be stuffed with the worst card, but you can't change it.
Therefore, it is better to complete the card swap limit in advance, and once it is delayed to the last round, it will be passive.
In addition to that, the most important thing in this game is acting and eloquence. Eloquence determines whether you can convince others, and acting determines whether you can keep the cards you don't want to lose and let others pick the cards you are eager to swap out.
And in this game, eloquence is also pinned on acting skills. No matter how eloquent you are, if you can't convince others, it's a waste of effort.
Draw ghost cards...... Yin Yebei did remember that there was such a game, but he felt too naΓ―ve before, and he had never played it with others. If you want to think by analogy, it is that in a group of cards, there may be multiple ghost cards mixed together. The person who draws the ghost card must find a way to exchange the ghost card to others and get out safely -
At this time, the staff had already stepped forward with a smile and handed out a bag in front of everyone.
Inside there are the props of this time, three cards. Everyone quickly exchanged a few glances, and each pulled out his card to look at it.
When he saw his card, Yin Yebei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
His hand is still pretty good. Two quest cards and one demon card were drawn.
The task card is singing and dancing, which is the most conventional artist assessment item, and the demon card is a "talk show", although it is a bit troublesome, but even if you really can't change it in the end, you can make do with the performance, and you won't be certain to die.
He quietly flipped through the card, and the back was indeed exactly the same black underside, with a few clusters of golden patterns, if you only look at the back, it is indeed impossible to see the difference between the mission card and the demon card at all.
Looking at it, he suddenly felt a pang in his heart, which also means that the most terrifying demon king card is also indistinguishable from the back......
After pondering for a long time, Yin Yebei raised his head abruptly and observed the expressions of the others.
If it's a werewolf killing game, the members have already adapted to the different identity cards, and no matter what they get, they can deal with it calmly.
But this card game is different, since everyone is playing this game for the first time, and the outcome of the game is related to the success or failure of the interview, they may not be so calm!
And the inner thoughts can often be reflected from the face most intuitively - at least the person who gets the demon card should be more nervous, and the person who gets the ordinary task card will be more relaxed, and through facial expressions, or the details of the eyes, you can make a preliminary judgment!
However, Yin Yebei glanced around, but was disappointed to find that he seemed to have missed the best opportunity.
Except for the "aunt" who looks the most straightforward, with a sad face, everyone else is already engaged in the game. Regardless of whether they are anxious or calm, at least from their faces, they can no longer find the slightest clue.
......Yin Yebei scolded secretly in his stomach. He should first observe the first reaction of other people before seeing his card! Just such a long time is enough for him to digest himself, and naturally it is enough for them to adjust their mood......
Now the only thing he can confirm is that the "aunt" has at least one or two demon cards in her hand, and she is not good at it in her own conditions - although with her appearance, it is difficult to find an assessment item that is really suitable for her - as for whether there is a demon king card, it is doubtful for the time being.
The "glasses" are like playing cards, adjusting the position of the three cards again and again. It is said that there seems to be some attention to this, and in the card drawing game, the probability of being drawn is often higher if the cards placed in certain positions are often higher...... But with only three cards in total, would the placement make that much difference? Or was it just his way of relieving his tension?
The "short man" had already put the card on the table with the back side up, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked around casually, like a naughty student who deserted alone at an important meeting of the academy. But is it really that simple? Is his composure now coming from the confidence that the cards have given him, or is it just a disguise?
The "beauty" held the card in one hand, and gently put the other hand on her lips, her beautiful eyes looked forward to it, and the corners of her skirt slipped down with her long legs, an indescribable temptation...... In front of this beautiful scenery, Yin Yebei stared, it seems that this woman will become a "beautiful snake" in this game, using her innate advantages to coax others to change cards...... Then in her hand, it is very likely that there is a card that is not good for the assessment!
Yin Yebei's eyes looked around, and he just collided with Li Meiying in mid-air. She looked confident, and when she received his gaze, she returned a faint smile.
It seems that her strategy of observing first and then looking at the cards, she not only thought of it, but also actually did it...... In other words, she has seen the truest first reactions of others, including herself......
Yin Yebei admitted that he was not a person who was moody and temperamental. Although I was relieved when I looked at the cards just now, it was limited to self-communication in my head, and on the surface, even the fluctuations in my eyes may not occur. Even if she looked, she couldn't see anything.
It's just that the estimate of her IQ has to be slightly higher. It seems that she is beautiful and smart, and she still accounts for the same in the end.
According to the existing conditions, Yin Yebei quickly decided after thinking about it that since his card was not bad, it was best to exchange this demon card as soon as possible, and then always refuse to change the card to avoid the demon king card.
This kind of "stability strategy", although it may make him miss out on better mission cards, at least it will not receive demon cards that are completely unperformable...... It should still work!
While these interviewers were thinking hard, Yan Nanqing and Shen Antong, as the chief examiners, took their performance into their eyes and exchanged pleasant glances with each other. It seems that they are ready to watch a good show.
"In that case...... After a long silence, "Glasses" was the first to speak, "Why don't you all tell us about the cards?"
"But it's like werewolf killing," the dwarf also spoke, his hands crossed, his tone calm, indeed a bit like the "werewolf killer" of yesteryear, "you can't be sure that everyone else is telling the truth." β
The "beauty" also answered slowly: "Yes, if the person who got the demon card really confesses, will someone exchange his demon card? β
"Shorty" seized the loophole in her words and immediately chased after her: "Then can I understand that people who dare not be honest about their cards must have obtained at least one demon card?"
The "beauty" glared angrily: "If you want to say that, show your cards first!"
"Auntie" also nodded again and again: "That's right, that's right, and you claim to be a werewolf killing master, then you must be very good at deceiving people," she appealed to everyone again, "It's best to wait until we don't believe what he says, no one should change cards with him, and drag him to the last round." β
"You ugly girl, what do you mean?" Hearing that she was going to call on everyone to deal with herself, the "dwarf" was also angry, "If you want me to say that the person who has the least chance of passing the interview here is you, anyway, whatever project you draw is in vain, it is better to directly show the cards and benefit those in need!"
The two went toe-to-toe, and the more they talked, the louder they became, and they almost quarreled directly.
ββ¦β¦ It's better to say directly if you want to change cards, what cards do you need?" Yin Yebei was annoyed by their quarrel, frowned and pinched the bridge of his nose, and took the initiative to propose, "There is no need to say your own cards, and it may not be true if you say it, but what cards you need, you can always say it clearly, right?"
After thinking about it, this proposal was indeed no problem, and they agreed one after another.
With a limited number of interviews, it is impossible for a candidate to become a collaborator in the first place. From this moment on, they are already competitors and must use their most superb acting skills to deceive each other while also guarding against being deceived.
Or, everyone's acting skills have already been partially shown.
"I think it's feasible, so let's start with me. Li Meiying spoke first, "I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, I drew three demon cards. But maybe my luck is bad or bad, at least I'm still up to the task on all three cards. β
"Three cards, which are ventriloquism, swimsuit show and somersaults, I happen to know a little bit, not much, amateur level, but so-so can also perform. So the next game, I can change it, I can change it, I can not change it, I just play with everyone. β
"Auntie" covered her mouth exaggeratedly: "Swimsuit show is okay? Isn't this a shame?"
Li Meiying smiled, deliberately straightened her chest and leaned back in the chair: "What are you afraid of? Don't look at me like this, it's actually a little bit good." Besides, after your debut, you will have whatever style people ask you to do, and it's good to get used to it as soon as possible. β
"If you have a musical instrument or a singing card, you can come and exchange it with me, of course, it's okay if you don't change it. Anyway, I rely on these few tickets, and it should be enough to advance. β
Is what she said true or false? Yin Yebei's mind was racing rapidly, and it was really not a smart person's practice to just pull out his hole cards like this. And...... Straight to say that she got a demon card, and she doesn't want to change the card, what if no one really changes the card with her next? Or, the demon card is real, and the card she reported is fake?...... Can't figure it out......
This kind of proposition of "true and false", if you are not careful, it is very easy to fall into a logical loop. Yin Yebei just analyzed it a little, and he felt that his head was about to explode. The two examiners on the side were still smiling, as if they were in two worlds with them.
"You said you have a ventriloquist card, is it true?" The "aunt" over there suddenly became excited, and fanned her chest with both hands, "Change it to me, change it to me, I have learned ventriloquism for a few years, I will exchange it with you with the instrument card!"
According to the clockwise direction, the seating order of the six people is: Li Meiying, "Auntie", "Shorty", "Beauty", Yin Yebei, and "Eyes". It is completely reasonable for Li Meiying, who is now in charge, to choose to exchange with the "aunt" who is second in line. And after this passive exchange, when the "aunt" is the turn of the main position, there will be the next opportunity to pick people to change cards.
"Which ventriloquist card is it?" The excited "aunt" almost got to Li Meiying's finger when she took the card, and kept asking.
Li Meiying took out a card with an expressionless face: "This one." β
"Auntie" didn't say a word, she took the card, and when she saw the card, her eyes widened exaggeratedly again, and the muscles of her face twitched, as if someone had pinched her nose and poured a vat of vinegar.
Although according to the rules, the person who gets the card can't say the card he got in exchange, but according to the obvious reaction of the "aunt", the rest of the people have already made a judgment.
Li Meiying, in the first round of the card change, has she successfully deceived her partner?
