Chapter 53: Survivor Bias
In the evening, Yun Jin came to this park with a small bench and a bag of melon seeds.
This park is probably really famous, full of people, men and women, dressed up in flowers. Under the dim street lamp, some are sitting, some are standing, and some are touching up their makeup.
It is estimated that they are all waiting for luck to come.
Incompatible with their solemn appearance was Yun Jin, who sat on the small bench, "quack" and "quack" sipping melon seeds.
Yun Jin stumbled while looking at the entire park, the park was not big, and a square was drawn by the river.
Listening to Qian Fatzi, in the past, this square was used by nearby aunts and uncles to dance square dances, but later it was occupied by excited men and women.
Yun Jin was shocked when he heard about it, so much news is that square dancing is invincible, and their territory can actually be captured?
So this tells us that love can conquer everything.
Just as he was complaining, he suddenly heard a commotion in his ears.
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
"Confession, really confession. ”
Yunjin stood up, jumped onto the flower bed, and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
A boy held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and looked at the girl in front of him with a flushed face, "Wang Xiao, would you like to be with me?"
The girl was a little confused at first, then nodded shyly.
The crowd erupted in bursts of heckling, and in the midst of the heckling, the two hugged each other.
With the birth of the first couple, the boys and girls in the small park were even more excited, and their blazing eyes swept over the opposite sex around them.
But Yun Jin frowned, feeling that something was not right.
This is completely different from the situation encountered by the fat man and the two boys on the website.
The situation encountered by those three "victims" was that they were all suddenly confessed and completely unprepared. And the confessor did not make any preparations.
It's more like an emergency.
But today the boy even has the flowers ready and knows the girl's name, which is obviously premeditated.
Yun Jin carefully observed the surroundings, there were not only people walking around alone in the park, but also some men and women walking together, and of course, there were people standing in conspicuous places.
Yun Jin couldn't help but guess whether there would be some people who would take advantage of this holy place of love to confess.
Or it is that single men and women meet here, and they are really excited.
Yun Jin had this guess, but it still needed to be verified, and at this time, the crowd slowly dispersed, and the couple was talking and laughing and walking out.
Yun Jin hurriedly walked a few steps briskly, caught up with them, and then said hello, "Hello." ”
The two of them stopped, and the boy looked at Yun Jin with a little vigilance, "Is there something wrong?"
Yun Jin stretched out his hand, "Hello, my name is Yun Jin, and I am studying psychology. ”
Yun Jin greeted and stretched out his hand very quickly, not giving the boy time at all, the boy reflexively stretched out his hand and shook him.
After two seconds, Yun Jin let go of his hand and asked, "I want to do an investigation, I don't know if it's convenient for the two of you?"
The girl held the flower in her right hand, and quietly dragged the boy with her left hand, then pulled a smile on her face and shook her head, "It's not very convenient, I'm sorry." ”
Yun Jin smiled, "It's okay, that's bothering." ”
With that, he turned and walked away without any mud or water.
The couple looked at Yun Jin's back, and they didn't have any suspicions, they just thought they were street salesmen or doing investigations.
But Yunjin's purpose has been achieved.
The reason why he stopped the couple was to make contact with the boy, and then try to collect the [Cupid's sniper bullet] in the boy's body.
If there is, then it means that it is indeed the Awakened who are making trouble, and if not, then it means that this is a premeditated confession, and it has nothing to do with the Awakened.
As a result, it didn't.
Then, there were two more confessions, one was a girl confessing to a boy, and the other was two strangers who didn't know each other, and it was love at first sight.
Yun Jin used the same reason to shake hands with them and collect.
Outcome... None of them have been able to awaken.
Yun Jin knew that most of his guesses were true.
But he also shook his head with a wry smile, he was a psychology student, and he didn't think of such a simple question.
Obviously, the Awakened are long gone. But because of this legendary thing, it has attracted many single men and women who "want to find a boyfriend and girlfriend" to come here.
Because they take the initiative to find their true destiny, these single men and women will dress themselves carefully.
Coupled with the large base, there is always someone who sees the right eye.
And some people who have a favorite object will also use this holy place of love to confess and improve the success rate.
And why did they all succeed?
One reason is that the person who is liked is not a fool, and he also knows that this is a holy place for love, and the other party is here, most of them are going to confess.
Those who don't accept it won't come, and those who come will generally accept it.
And some confessions fail, or two singles, only one of them looks at each other, and everyone will not notice.
This is known as survivorship bias.
What people see and hear is the result of various screenings. Those who are screened down are not noticed.
Then because of the [herd mentality], more people will gather here, more people will confess here, and then continue to promote that this is a holy place for love.
It's a cycle. For the first few days, or ten days, the Awakened Person probably stayed around here, but after that, he probably left.
But the development of this riverside park is no longer under her control.
Thinking of this, Yun Jin no longer hesitated, he picked up his small bench and decided to go home.
At this moment, he saw the sloppy uncle again.
The sloppy uncle still looked cynical, holding an unlit cigarette, wearing an old suit and a scruffy beard.
He was walking out with the little girl in red with a little Lori on the left and right.
That little Lori is more than a meter tall at most, biting a disc lollipop, looking at the two of them angrily, with a look of displeasure.
Yun Jin was full of curiosity and hurriedly followed.
The three of them didn't walk fast, but their standing position remained the same, Yun Jin followed behind, and clearly saw the little girl in red holding the little Lori, probably because she was afraid that she would escape.
may have followed a little tightly, the sloppy uncle suddenly glanced back, but fortunately, Yun Jin hid in time and was not discovered.
The little girl in red dragged the little loli to stand still and asked, "What's wrong?"
The sloppy uncle glanced around and said lightly, "It's okay." ”
His tone didn't look like he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, but like... No matter what happens, a strong confidence that will be fine.
The three of them continued on their way. Yun Jin recalled the whole route, and their destination should be those alleys and streets in the old city.
Yun Jin hid in the grass, waved his hand, turned into wings, and then a feather slowly fell.
