No matter if we find the Devil Bomb or not, the outcome is the same. Either Cary leaves or Lin Yan goes away; anyways, FOR must eliminate one person.
The program team is nauseating. If they want predetermined slots, why still wave the flag of fair competition? They’ve wasted so much of their anticipation and effort.
At this point, Lin Yan shook his head, "Everyone has already tried their best; things that can’t be changed, we have to accept. Top Flow started with eight guests; now, with you three remaining, it’s already FOR’s glory, I..."
"Wait!"
Ye Xian stared closely at the names on the list, "Do you remember the rules of the Devil Bomb?"
"Of course."
Jiang Wanze: "If we find the name in the Devil Bomb, we can choose to protect or detonate the bomb on them."
Lin Yan: "If we can’t find it, the bomb detonates automatically, and the person on the bomb list will replace the eliminated one."
Cary: "What do you mean by asking this?"
"That’s from our perspective, but what if someone else finds the Devil Bomb?"
Cary: "The rules are the same, no change."
"Yes." Ye Xian nodded, "But what if they make a mistake, then what?"
As she finished speaking, the three paused for a moment; the hidden rules of the Devil Bomb: Search for the list of people inside the bomb according to the clues. If a mistake is made and announced, that guest will replace the listed person’s elimination!
It’s like a buzzer question; if you don’t buzz in, you won’t get the chance to score. But if you buzz in and respond incorrectly, you’ll lose points.
Risk and benefit are always intertwined.
The three vaguely seemed to understand her words, "You mean..."
Ye Xian walked over, "Captain, may I borrow your paper and pen?"
Jiang Wanze handed her the paper and pen from his wallet, and Ye Xian pressed the paper against the trash can, writing her name on it.
Lin Yan, "Ye Xian, what are you..."
Ye Xian shredded the original list, put the new list into the box, and then returned it to the trash can.
"Let’s pretend we haven’t been here, nor did we find the Devil Bomb. Leave this surprise for Chu Yao."
"Wow! This is brilliant!"
Cary finally turned around, "When Chu Yao finds it, mistakenly thinking you’re the one hit by the Devil Bomb, and publicly detonates you, doesn’t he end up eliminated!"
"Bingo!"
Ye Xian snapped her fingers.
Jiang Wanze: "But what if, to be safe, he chooses not to publicly detonate? Anyway, he thinks we don’t know who’s on the list."
"He will announce it."
Ye Xian affirmed.
"Because the person on the list is me."
In front of the big screen, the director watched her ingenious maneuver with awe, clapping admiringly after a long pause.
Remarkable, truly remarkable!
They had laid traps everywhere, yet he found loopholes.
The netizens were right: no matter how strong the equipment, it can’t top a sharp mind.
As long as you’re smart enough, any equipment and strategy can be broken; no preset and rules can stump him.
