Chapter 8 Quickly solve the problem
As soon as Jiang Han walked to the next to the sign box, he heard a sudden creaking sound from the roof. He was about to look at him and saw a circle of glass covers falling down quickly, accurately covering him and the sign box in the middle.
This sudden change made Jiang Han hesitate a little, and at the same time, a mechanical synthesis sounded inside the cover. "Please note that you have entered the lottery area. In the next time, you will have 3 minutes to choose. If you do not choose a lottery within 3 minutes, it will be deemed that this lottery is invalid and you will not be punished. However, the system will not be able to provide you with independent space services within 10 minutes. Please choose the timing."
This series of changes also surprised the onlookers a little. However, compared to this surprise, they cared more about Jiang Han's movements in the cover. Move, why don't you move? Get a lottery!
Fortunately, Jiang Han's hand stretched out just paused for a moment and continued to grab the bamboo stick. Seeing this, the onlookers immediately held their breath and continued to watch.
However, the masses were silent for a moment and then immediately felt regretful, because the scene they saw was not what they imagined. Jiang Han's hand did not grab the bamboo stick, but held the metal pole connecting the box and the chain.
Even An Jing could not tell the disadvantages brought by the first draw. The reason why Jiang Han was the first to walk over was because he felt that the rules of this game were a bit strange, and he needed to check the mystery of the box of bamboo sticks himself. As for the audience's little thoughts, Jiang Han didn't bother to argue with them at all.
Jiang Han grabbed the metal rod and lifted it upwards, which was indeed a certain amount. He shook his wrist and rotated the whole box of bamboo sticks, and found that it was rotating very smoothly, and the bamboo sticks did not shake, and they were all firmly inserted into the box.
Jiang Han let go of the metal rod and held the box firmly, then looked it carefully. The metal box was square, slightly larger than the textbooks used in schools.
The bamboo sticks on the box are as thick as small fingers, and they are lined up to the same height and are very eye-catching. The bamboo sticks are closely arranged in 9 rows of horizontal and vertical rows and 9 rows of metal rods in the middle position, and there are exactly 80 metal rods.
Jiang Han touched his chin for a moment, and finally showed a sudden smile. Jiang Han, who figured everything, raised his chest and took a step back. After receiving the message, the glass cover immediately rose up.
The onlookers were extremely disappointed when they saw Jiang Han’s failure, and they were extremely relieved. It would be good if someone was the first to explore the way, but the first person they wanted to take risks was Jiang Han. After all, they had seen Jiang Han’s ability, and Jiang Han was a little more at ease.
Jiang Han not only defeated Edogawa, who had enslaved him, but was ordered to reverse Xiaoxiao in desperate situations, but was also the first to say that she wanted to kill Noah and became a man targeted by Noah.
Such a mysterious man makes everyone confused, because it is impossible to tell whether Jiang Han offended Noah or whether he is smart or stupid. The people don’t fight with officials! We ordinary people all know this truth, why don’t you take it seriously?
It is precisely for this reason that almost everyone stayed away from Jiang Han because they were afraid that they would get too close to Jiang Han and attract Noah's attention and become a fish that was affected.
Sure enough, wasn’t An Xin, a beautiful woman who was slapped in hatred, and Huang Chao, who was slapped in the face, targeted by Noah? This game is simply to make them look bad. Looking at Huang Chao’s still proud face, everyone shook their heads secretly, it was really a sin that they could not survive.
On the other hand, Jiang Han quickly returned to his room after checking the props. Hearing the door clattered and the feeling of being suppressed just now was swept away, so everyone immediately became active and secretly started to make their own small plans.
In Jiang Han's room, Jiang Han stood against the wall, silently reciting time. Twenty-four, Twenty-five, Twenty-six...
Suddenly, a light shot out from the middle of the room from bottom to top, and Noah's figure immediately appeared in front of Jiang Han.
"You're indeed here, earlier than I thought."
"Hahaha, I am worthy of being the actor I like the most. I saw through this game so quickly." Noah laughed heartily. Although she was praised, her eyes were full of playfulness.
"What are you asking for me?" Jiang Han didn't talk nonsense to him and just told him straight to the point.
"Don't worry?" Noah said with a kind smile. "The game must have the rules of the game. There should be a code that should be used when connecting. Have you found all the passwords I left for you?"
Jiang Han frowned when he heard this and said helplessly: "Your message is that this game is not a game based on luck!"
Jiang Han's words were amazing. If others were present, they would definitely be shocked by Jiang Han's subsequent analysis.
"First, you first emphasize that this is a game based on luck, and then set rules for exchange. You make luck an optional thing, and this is the first message you vaguely leave. Drawing lots can be done without luck!"
"The second is that the lottery props are designed with extremely unreasonable! Is it really necessary to hang them down from above with a chain? Is it not good to directly raise a table from the ground? From this we can conclude that you have the purpose of designing this way. This is the second message you left behind, there is something wrong with the box!"
"Then, I went over and checked the sign box. I found that it was indeed just an ordinary metal box, no, it should be said to be a metal block, because it is very heavy and solid.
As the name suggests, bamboo sticks are long and short. The exposed part is as long as they are, which means that the part inserted into the box is different in length. In addition, the bamboo sticks are too thick, is it really necessary to do this? Is it to let other players see clearly? Of course not! The purpose of thick bamboo sticks is to occupy space and make the box lighter.
Thick bamboo sticks, long and short tags. This means that under the same area, the more short tags you have, the heavier the more you have. If the short tags are not uniform, then the weight of the box will also be uneven! This is why you have to let the box hang, because this is the prompt you gave, which prompts that the long and short tags are regular!"
"For this, I did some experiments. I lifted the box and turned it around. Because it was very stable to hang it there, I also rotated it smoothly. This means that the position of the long and short tags is arranged symmetrically on the four sides of the dot."
The principle that Jiang Han did not explain to Noah was actually just a simple physics knowledge. A square heavy object was hung from the middle by a chain. If he could maintain balance and not tilt, it would mean that the torques on both sides of any center line were equal. The easiest way to make it equal is to arrange it symmetrically.
Of course, asymmetry is also possible. Just like sitting on a seesaw, the fat man can be pressed up by the thin man when he moves to the middle. So Jiang Han rotates the box. Because if the arrangement is asymmetric, the side with more short signs will definitely be heavier. When objects with unequal weights on both sides rotate, their rotation axis will definitely be offset.
The rotation is very stable and no deviation of the rotation axis is found, so Jiang Han can confirm that the position of the long and short tags must be arranged symmetrically with the center as the dot.
"There are many ways to arrange the center symmetrically, but you can know what the symmetrical position is when you see others draw lots." Looking at Noah, whose corners of his mouth are bent higher and higher, Jiang Han stretched out his fourth finger. "At first, I just thought I just discovered a game loophole. Until I suddenly remembered the most easily overlooked but most important information."
Hearing this, Noah's mouth, which had been curved to a great extent, finally smiled, "Very good, tell me, what did you find?" At this time, his tone was already trembling with excitement.
Jiang Han said to himself as if he hadn't seen anything: "The most important thing is the number of bamboo sticks. There are 80 in total. Why do you want to use this number? Three long and two short. In order to meet the meaning of the question, all numbers greater than 10 are equal to this requirement as long as they are integer multiples of 5."
Speaking of this, Jiang Han clenched his right hand, which had stretched out five fingers and turned his fist into a palm, into a fist again. "Why is the stamp box not lifted but hung up? Why do bamboo sticks use square arrays of 9 times 9? When I connected several unreasonable places together, this problem suddenly came to an inevitable result. Because of that metal rod, because it must be used to occupy the center position!"
"What is the reason for occupying the center? Is it just to reduce the number 81 by 1? The so-called missing a circle, whether it is a chain or a 9, reminds me of a figure that is completely opposite to a square. That is the circle! That's right, this is your final prompt. A game that doesn't treat it as a luck-based game, and prompts it all the way. What you want to say is that the position of the long and short signs is a circle."
"Of course, it is impossible for bamboo sticks to be really arranged into circles. You just remind me to see it as a circle. With the metal rod as the center, according to this idea, it was soon discovered that there are 8 positions around it, 16 positions in the next circle, 24 positions in the next circle, and 32 positions in the next circle. At this time, if the long and short labels are arranged alternately on the 'circumference', you will find that there are 32 short label positions 8 plus 24, and 48 long and 32 positions in the long label positions 16 plus 32, which is exactly the ratio of three long and two short, which is impossible to combine any other number of bamboo sticks."
"Okay, okay." Noah smiled excitedly while applauding, "The password is correct, you can pass it. Actually, I have designed this game before you, but no one of the previous game participants has been able to get to your point. Well, I am worthy of being the best actor I am. So, let's enter the real game now."
Real game?
Jiang Han frowned. Although he guessed that Noah would come, he never thought that Noah would play other games with him. However, Noah's next words shocked Jiang Han.
"Yes, according to my prompt, players who have seen through all the long and short sign positions have an optional task, which is to play an additional game with me. And this game is very simple."
Speaking of this, Noah suddenly stopped, and a picture of the outside world immediately appeared in front of Jiang Han. In the picture, his younger brother Jiang Mo was running desperately, and his face, which was a little distorted due to fear, made Jiang Han feel heartbroken.
In just a moment, the picture flashed and disappeared, and Jiang Han felt that his heart was being harassed by something. At this moment, Noah's strange laughter came, "See, your brother is in extreme danger. And your additional task in the lottery game is to design and kill all other players in the game. In this way, you can get 360 days of survival time. You can use the 300 days of reward to pull your brother to the ark. This is the only way for you to save him. Hahaha, is this additional game very interesting? How would you choose? Should you choose to save your brother or give up on your brother to save the girl outside? Haha, I can't wait to see it."
