'Hummingbird' Luo Wei was completely flustered, because she only had one 'Sheep' coupon, giving her just over 10,000 chips.
Although she had won some chips in the first phase of the game, she had already used them, along with her original visa time, to pay off her debts.
Now, she was penniless.
'Rabbit' Han Mengying gave her five of her own contract coupons, and if the original plan went through, and Han Mengying received the final prize pool, Luo Wei would get over 50,000 minutes of visa time.
This would be enough for her to pay off her loans in the community, with about 30,000 minutes of visa time left over.
But now, 'Rabbit' Han Mengying's five contract coupons had suddenly shrunk to about 7,000 minutes of visa time.
This also meant that the income Luo Wei could derive from the contract coupons was less than 20,000 minutes of visa time.
The previous loan Han Mengying made from Community 4's fund to Luo Wei was 20,000 minutes of visa time, with no interest but a repayment deadline set: two weeks.
It would be just after this game ended, not lasting until the next game began.
So this selection game was Luo Wei's last chance to earn visa time.
Once forced repayment was initiated, Luo Wei's visa time would be completely zeroed out.
Thinking of this, Luo Wei panicked.
"Can we pass a resolution when we return to the community to extend the repayment period of the interest-free loan?
"Just one week, one week is enough. No matter what the next game is, I'll join!"
However, 'Rabbit' Han Mengying looked at her and silently shook her head.
"I'm sorry.
"I admire you and have given you many chances.
"But rules are rules, and everyone must abide by them.
"Our community is not one that endlessly tolerates the weak.
"I've already made an exception for you once, I can't do it a second time."
'Hummingbird' Luo Wei was instantly drained of all her strength, leaning wearily against the wall.
Han Mengying no longer paid attention to Luo Wei.
But beyond her anger, she also realized there was a way to settle accounts with 'Sheep' in the fall.
Because she had verbally promised to bring 'Sheep' back to Community 4, once back in the community, 'Sheep' would still be at her mercy.
However, until the game ended, she did not hear the prompt that 'Sheep' would return to Community 4 with her.
Obviously, 'Sheep' had found another way out.
But what puzzled Han Mengying was that 'Sheep' had verbally agreed to enter her community before, which had been confirmed on the game level.
'Sheep' could renege, but the premise was that she had to find another community and go through the process again to be reaccepted.
'Rabbit' Han Mengying had been observing 'Sheep,' confirming that 'Sheep' did not make an ostentatious effort to contact players from her original community during the entire game.
Aside from spending a small amount of time trying to lobby 'Owl' and 'Plum Deer', 'Sheep' was mostly with the players from Community 4.
But as things stood, 'Sheep' either returned to her original community or joined the community with 'Owl' or 'Plum Deer'.
...
Earlier, when the broadcast for voting on the Imitator was about to begin.
'Woodpecker' Zheng Jie and 'Peacock' Qin Yao were shocked and asked: "What? 'Sheep' is the Imitator!"
They were both somewhat slow to realize.
Shortly after the third round of 'Guess the Number' started, 'Sheep' went to find 'Owl' Lin Sizhi to discuss a new plan.
Afterward, the two went to a corner and discussed for a long time, reaching an agreement.
Lin Sizhi directly approached Zheng Jie and Qin Yao to incorporate 'Sheep' into Community 17.
Zheng Jie and Qin Yao were slightly surprised at the time, as they originally thought Lin Sizhi might find a female player from the existing Foolish Players with cooperation to join.
Unexpectedly, they directly poached someone from the Wise Identity team.
But since it was Lin Sizhi's decision, Zheng Jie and Qin Yao naturally did not ask much, and certainly did not object.
They fully cooperated to complete the recruitment.
But before this, Zheng Jie and Qin Yao had no idea of the reason behind Lin Sizhi's recruitment, nor did they know that 'Sheep' was the Imitator who designed this game.
Even more so, they did not know whether Lin Sizhi deliberately recruited an Imitator or accidentally stumbled upon one.
"How did you discover that 'Sheep' is the Imitator?" Zheng Jie asked, full of astonishment.
Of course, he knew it would be covered in the review, but he couldn't wait.
'Owl' Lin Sizhi took two notes out of his pocket.
These were the consumption records of 'Rabbit' and 'Sheep'.
'Woodpecker' Zheng Jie took them, puzzled, scrutinizing them for a long time but finding nothing conclusive.
"I only see that 'Rabbit' consumed oxygen quickly, and checked your consumption record early on. 'Sheep' consumed oxygen slowly and didn't check consumption records.
"But what does that prove?
"Does it prove that because 'Sheep' didn't think in the first phase and ended up with the Wise Identity, she is the Imitator? That reason seems insufficient, doesn't it?
"There are other players who, from the start in an oxygen-rich environment, deliberately chose completely random strategies and luckily obtained the Wise Identity. Their oxygen consumption might also be low."
'Owl' Lin Sizhi shook his head: "The concept of oxygen consumption being 'fast' or 'slow' is quite vague.
"To make an accurate judgment, the most important aspect is 'quantification'.
"When it's equally 'slow,' how slow is normal? How slow is abnormal?
"Only by having measurable standards can this issue actually be determined.
"During the first phase of the game, I always kept my thinking to a minimum.
"All strategies were completed in the oxygen-rich environment before the actual game began.
"Upon entering the game, regardless of the opponent I faced, I executed my predetermined strategy and even forced myself to stop thinking.
"Thus, I didn't win much and ended up with the 'Fool's Card Set'.
"But the reason I didn't think wasn't to save oxygen, but to determine what the minimum oxygen consumption limit actually was.
"Any redundant thinking would make the data inaccurate and unusable as a standard of judgment.
"I probably first replenished my oxygen just before the last round of the first phase.
"Of course, there was a little bit left when I replenished, but I couldn't be sure if it would last through a 5-minute matchup, so I replenished a bit early.
"But either way, I determined that my oxygen replenishment in an extreme state was around 55 minutes.
"And 'Sheep's' oxygen consumption was even lower than mine, replenishing oxygen for the first time at 59 minutes.
"This indicates 'Sheep's' level of thought was even lower than mine when I 'deliberately stopped thinking.'
"This is evidently abnormal."
