The hall fell into silence for a moment.

Wang Yongxin was the first to speak: "I think this judgment is fine."

Qin Yao nodded after serious consideration: "I also think it's fine."

As for the others, it was hard to say whether they were truly satisfied with the decision, but at least no one openly opposed it.

Therefore, there was no need for a real vote.

This outcome was, of course, within Li Renshu's expectations.

A seasoned politician would not initiate a vote that would disadvantage her unless she was completely sure of the outcome.

For Wang Yongxin, expressing support was also the only choice he could make at the moment.

Interestingly, Wang Yongxin did a simple deduction and found that there were actually three different possibilities for this incident:

Fu Chen managing the Immunity Coupon and deciding to save someone;

Li Renshu managing the Immunity Coupon and deciding to save someone;

Li Renshu managing the Immunity Coupon and deciding not to save someone.

Among these three possibilities, if Wang Yongxin had to choose, the second would be the most optimistic scenario.

If Fu Chen decided to save someone, Wang Yongxin would certainly have to use a veto, but that would make him the villain, and considering his gender and limited political reputation, it would be hard for him to provide a proper explanation like Li Renshu, further damaging his already limited popularity.

If Li Renshu decided to save someone, it would be the best for Wang Yongxin.

Because he could use this opportunity to question Li Renshu's 'Immunity Coupon usage standards,' create some fractures within the five-person group, expand his influence, and sway some players away from Li Renshu.

But clearly, Li Renshu would not make such a low-level mistake, leading to a result for Wang Yongxin that was neither good nor bad.

Wang Yongxin could only acknowledge and support this result.

Handing this coupon to different people would have its own advantages and disadvantages, and there was no perfect choice.

This also made Wang Yongxin feel somewhat dramatic: His initial proposal was to have Fu Chen manage the Immunity Coupon. If Fu Chen were indeed in charge, it was likely that Jiang He would use it.

As for whether it would be vetoed, that was another matter, but at least the situation of not using it at all wouldn't occur.

Jiang He clearly supported Li Renshu, but ironically, it was Li Renshu who decided not to grant her its use.

It was somewhat lamentable.

Cai Zhiyuan realized the topic could end there, so he pointed to the large screen again.

"Actually, speaking up to this point, it's easier for everyone to understand the decisions Jiang He made in the game.

"When choosing an assistant, she insisted on bringing Yang Yuting instead of Aunt Zhou for two main reasons.

"First, she viewed this game as an opportunity to showcase herself, so she decided to give this opportunity to Yang Yuting, whom she felt was ideologically closer.

"Second, she might have some knowledge of reproduction due to her work, but it's clear that the knowledge she acquired mismatched with what the game tested."

Yang Yuting was shocked: "Wait, how could it be closer ideologically?"

Cai Zhiyuan explained: "Because Aunt Zhou is old and can't share the same mindset as her.

"In Jiang He's eyes, the ranking of relationships with other female community players was likely: Li Renshu, you, Xu Tong, Qin Yao, Aunt Zhou.

"You are about the same age as Jiang He, so naturally, she assumed you shared the same views and stood on her side.

"However, she overlooked one point—family background.

"Your family is very wealthy, so you and Qin Yao are more similar, both benefiting from the old gender division system, and therefore, ideologically quite different from Jiang He.

"This difference is determined by economic foundation and life experience.

"To put it simply: The more impoverished the original family, the more likely women suffer under the existing gender division, naturally inclining them towards feminism; conversely, the wealthier the original family, the more women may benefit from the existing gender division, thus resisting feminism.

"In essence, gender conflict is more acute at the lower levels and more moderate at the upper levels. Fundamentally, it's the lack of resources at the bottom causing gender infighting.

"So, when Jiang He saw your answers to those initial five questions, she would've been quite surprised."

Yang Yuting was momentarily speechless, starting to understand why Jiang He was overly enthusiastic towards her.

It was evident that both sides had misunderstood each other.

Yang Yuting pondered and asked, "Then what do you mean by Jiang He's study of fertility issues, but the knowledge she accessed not matching the game's test? The three questions in the game seemed pretty basic to me.

"Right, Aunt Zhou?"

Zhou Guifen nodded: "I think they were quite basic.

"You don't even necessarily need parenting experience; a parenting reference book could provide all the answers."

Cai Zhiyuan explained: "That's why I say it's a knowledge structure mismatch.

"Jiang He's profession is editing, inevitably involving some hot topics, including gender and fertility issues.

"However, discussions in newspapers, magazines, or new media generally don't involve practical 'operational' details.

"For example, when we discuss fertility rates online, who talks about how many scoops of formula an infant needs? Such details are subconsciously overlooked.

"But in actual fertility issues, these details are crucial.

"It might be said that whether it's policymakers or those discussing these topics, they're not really discussing the topic itself but using it to express other viewpoints freely.

"This game precisely captures this distinction, separating those who 'think they understand fertility' from those who 'truly understand fertility.'

"Those who frequently mention fertility topics but lack basic knowledge of actual parenting processes are merely exploiting fertility issues for personal gain, regardless of gender.

"Of course, I must honestly say, I don't know these answers either, but I'm not concerned about this topic.

"Clearly, in the eyes of the game's Imitator, compared to those who truly don't know and don't understand, those who claim to know but don't grasp the details are more deserving of judgment."

Yang Yuting sighed silently: "Alright, let's drop this topic. I'm a bit tired of discussing it further."

She realized with some resignation that Jiang He's predicament seemed consistent both in and out of the game.

In the game, Jiang He presumptuously regarded all female players as 'her people,' and in the community, she similarly presumed Li Renshu as 'her person.'

In the end, it was the 'her people' in the game who voted to kill her, while 'her people' outside the game decided not to use the coupon to save her.

Were they really her people?

Not necessarily.

In the game, the female players considered whether Jiang He could lead them to successfully clear the game, or rather, to do so in the most straightforward and secure manner.

In the community, Li Renshu considered the community's stability, awarding status only after significant contributions from a player.

This is the primary priority, and they do not care whether the person is male or female.

Just like in Community 3 and Community 4, Lu Xinyi and Han Mengying became the community core not because of their gender but due to their genuine abilities.

Zheng Jie pondered for a long time and posed a new question: "So at the end of the day, isn't the judgment game unjust anyway?

"Chen Yumei and Jiang He committed the same crime, yet the one more hidden survived?

"Moreover, the sinners tied up had all faced legal judgments. But if the Judicial Council members decided to kill them to exchange for the Fertility Fund, they had no chance to resist, only to await death.

"Isn't that unreasonable too?"

Everyone said in unison: "In the judgment game, don't consider issues of fairness."

Zheng Jie was taken aback, clearly recognizing that this conclusion was reached while discussing the 'King's Judgment,' a time when he was not yet part of the community.

Wang Yongxin remarked: "Strictly speaking, every judgment game that has appeared so far, all of them, are unfair.

"Games involving fewer people may be relatively better, but they're still unfair.

"And the more people involved in a judgment game, the less it aligns with fairness.

"So don't have any special illusions about judgment games just because they contain the word 'judgment.' Your concept of judgment and the Walkway's judgment might be two completely different things.

"In the King's Judgment, did Zhang Peng, Gao Zhankui, Cai Zhiyuan, and I commit crimes serious enough to warrant death?

"But if the King truly wanted to kill us, we'd have no room for bargaining.

"Of course, on the surface, it seems we could gain the King's identity via the 'Farmer's Walk' or by persuading the King for a lesser sentence, offering a bit of seemingly strategic space, better than being locked and speechless in the 'Fertility Judgment.'

"But is there any essential difference?

"No.

"All other judgment games are the same, never fair.

"I can only say, in this regard, all Imitators share the same tacit understanding."
