The Distortion About the White Fox

Chapter 586 The Distortion About the White Fox
call--

The beautiful woman's head began to turn.

This made everyone's hearts jump to their throats.

Who? Who will speak next?

A moment later, Miss Deer's expression grew increasingly grim as she looked at the topic card placed in front of her.

Why did I have to speak at such an awkward moment?
Looking at the menacing gazes of Black Crow and White Fox, she felt like a little white rabbit being targeted, completely powerless to fight back!

Please tell me about the most unforgettable thing that happened to you.

Oh no, this topic needs to be pinpointed to a specific issue; it's not easy to weave in subjective elements.

Miss Sika Deer has launched a white neutral chip.

After a moment of thought, he said, "I...I got lost during an outdoor adventure."

"My electronic devices had no signal and I couldn't contact the outside world. I spent five days alone in the wilderness. During this time, I suffered many minor injuries, and eventually, my wounds became infected and I developed a fever."

"When I thought I was about to die in the mountains, the search and rescue team found me and brought me back from the brink of death. This was the closest I ever came to death before I became a player, and I will never forget it in my life."

After hearing this, Wu Wang narrowed his eyes.

She was telling the truth.

Based on his sudden realization, he easily concluded that the other person was telling the truth.

"question."

Wu Wang immediately said, "You're lying."

He did not point out which parts of the other person's statement were false; he simply stated the conclusion.

But this still caused a flash of anger to appear on Miss Sika Deer's face as she retorted, "You! You promised you wouldn't question me! You bastard!"

In response, Wu Wang shrugged and said, "I promised not to deliberately lose the red lie chips to you, but I didn't say I wouldn't question you. Please look carefully, I'm using the white neutral chips."

After saying that, he waved the neutral chips on the table.

Miss Deer's expression softened somewhat.

Of course she knew she was telling the truth.

Even if the other party deliberately failed to question it.

It's just that I get one more neutral chip, so it seems like I haven't lost anything.

The next second, the voice came from the other side.

The young man with the white fox in his hand, clutching the two different chips he had just placed on the table, said:

"I also think you're lying."

He also offered no explanation.

This sight made Wu Wang smile.

He tapped his chips lightly on the table and joked, "Dude, we can be considered to be questioning each other at the same time, since we both placed our bets before the other even spoke."

"I'm curious, how will the referees make their decisions?"

"If we're going to decide who speaks first, then I'd win."

The young man from White Fox did not respond to this.

They simply waited silently for feedback from the referee at the center of the round table.

After a moment, the beautiful woman spoke:

"The challenge failed."

"Fact check - Ms. Sika Deer once hiked through a desolate mountain route ten years ago and lost contact with the outside world for five days. When rescuers found her, she was suffering from a wound infection and fever. Because she survived after being sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, her statement is determined to be true."

"Conclusion - the use of neutral chips failed to determine the truth or falsehood of the language, and the challenge failed."

After saying that, Wu Wang glanced down at his hand.

He was currently holding a white neutral chip firmly in his hand.

His bargaining chips were not transferred to the other party despite the failure of his challenge!

In other words, the White Fox Youth was the first to raise questions in this case.

Why is this happening?

Wu Wang frowned slightly as he pondered.

He vaguely sensed a strange sense of unease.

Could it be that this young man with the white fox has discovered some hidden rule that he has never been aware of before?

I quickly went through in my mind everything the other person had said from the start of the game until now.

Wu Wang's expression became increasingly strange.

He couldn't find any flaws, nor did he notice any hidden rules that he hadn't been aware of.

What exactly is the problem?
While he was still thinking, the beautiful woman's head started spinning again.

Amidst everyone's anxious anticipation, she aimed at Miss Dujuan, whose face was filled with despair.

Please tell me the one thing you hate the most.

Miss Du Juan only has the Red Lie chip left.

She had no other choice.

He tossed out his chip and said coldly, "I have been married before."

“My husband cheated on me during our marriage and even brought his mistress home to play while I was away on a business trip.”

"Before the divorce, I used legal means to award more than half of his property to me. After losing his money, he was also rejected by the mistress and the matter was eventually dropped."

“But I’m still not satisfied. I hate myself for not being more ruthless back then. Just economic suppression is not enough to make that bastard repent. I should have found a way to completely ruin his life.”

You could hear a hint of gritted teeth in Miss Du Juan's tone.

Her anger was extremely real.

This statement also reveals that Miss Du Juan actually detests betrayal.

So, when Tiger Brother tricked her into giving him a neutral chip through sincere words and actions during the transaction,

That's why Miss Du Juan seemed particularly angry.

In response, Wu Wang said, "I have doubts."

"I think you're using lies as leverage to tell the truth."

Although that's what they say.

But the sudden realization led to the conclusion that Miss Dujuan was lying.

Of course, it's probably just a lie about some detail.

The hatred for betrayal is genuine.

She has indeed given up on winning this game.

After all, she has now lost the right to win.

There has always been a hidden rule in this game.

That is-

When the total number of chips falls below three, the player is considered to have entered the kill threshold.

The reason is simple: speaking requires consuming a chip, which is a loss that cannot be recovered no matter what.

Just like Miss Dujuan now, when she only has two lies left in her hand.

She used up one of her chips to speak, even if others questioned her and she failed.

It only meant that her chips were reduced back to two.

Moreover, if we don't question her, the number of chips will only be one.

But she'll have to use up her chips in the next round of speaking.

The condition for victory is that you must have at least three truth chips.

She will only have a chance of winning if she can successfully challenge at least three times in a row before her turn to speak in the next round.

But such hope is clearly slim.

Especially given that Wu Wang and the young White Fox have already demonstrated their overwhelming intellect.

Her chances of making a comeback from such a desperate situation are practically zero.

Therefore, Miss Du Juan calmly chose to give up.

Say what you're using based on the amount of leverage you're using.

I need to at least survive until the end of this round of speaking, so I don't end up being eliminated like the old man with the mammoth head. At least I can retain a shred of dignity.

"question."

"I also believe you are telling the truth."

The young man with the white fox silently echoed.

Once again, both of them questioned the same goal, and the direction of their questioning was exactly the same.

Wu Wang squinted, waiting for the game referee's decision.

However, this time the beautiful woman said:
"The challenge failed."

"Fact check - Ms. Du Juan divorced her ex-husband when she was 26 years old. The surveillance footage showed that the man did have extramarital affairs and she obtained more than half of his property through legal means. However, Ms. Du Juan remarried when she was 28 years old and had two marriages, which does not match the number of 'having had one marriage' mentioned in her statement."

"Conclusion - Using lies as leverage, but containing false elements, complies with the rules, therefore the challenge fails."

As soon as he finished speaking, the white neutral chip in Wu Wang's hand disappeared.

According to the game rules, the prize should be transferred to Miss Dujuan.

But his expression also became serious.

This time, it was he who was the first to question the judgment.

However, the entire process of this questioning is no different from the previous questioning of Ms. Sika Deer's statement!
What criteria does the referee use to make this judgment?
That inexplicable sense of unease became increasingly apparent.

Judging from the reactions of the people around him, the only ones who seem to have noticed this strange and unsettling feeling are himself and the unassuming white fox youth.

The others were still intently awaiting the next remarks from the two.

Because now only the two of them are left.

call--

The beautiful woman's head was now aimed at the young man with the white fox.

The topic card is flipped over to show—

Please describe your best friend.

Oh? This time, the statement wasn't directed at a specific event, but at a specific person.

Because the entries contain descriptive terms, it's impossible to simply state the name; related events must be used to flesh out the character's complexity.

Wu Wang stared intently at the other man's face, wanting to know what he would say.

The young man from the white fox clan hesitated almost without hesitation.

He said calmly, "My best friend is a colleague from my research institute days, whose surname is Hu."

"He is restrained, has a sense of boundaries, is logical, and does not overuse emotions, which perfectly fits the category of friends that I can accept."

“On the eve of the cancellation of the project where I was a senior researcher, he called me. We exchanged five key data points and a logical flaw. It took three minutes and twenty-six seconds. There were no small talk or greetings. It seemed ordinary, but it was a spiritual high-five in absolute rationality and trust.”

"Unfortunately, he died in an accident six months before I became a player."

"I haven't had such a close friend since then."

There was nothing unusual about the content of this passage.

But Wu Wang was a little confused.

Because the speaking tokens used by the other party were red!

According to Wu Wang's calculations, the young man from the White Fox should now only have 2 truth chips and 1 lie chip left.

If he wants to do everything he can to prevent himself from winning.

They should save the leverage of lying to use in questioning their own statements.

Because regardless of whether one's statements comply with the rules, this lie will become the biggest obstacle.

If the questioning fails, the leverage of the lies will be transferred to oneself.

If you successfully raise a question, you will lose one truth chip and thus be unable to win.

If we use up our last lie now.

If he wants to question himself later, he'll only have the truth as his bargaining chip.

If the challenge is successfully challenged using the truth-telling chips, the situation will become that the White Fox Youth has 3 truth-telling chips and no lie-telling chips.

He also wanted to end the game right away in this round!
Wu Wang frowned.

Something's not right; this is just a theoretical conclusion.

Don't forget, you can also question his statements.

If he successfully challenges the White Fox Youth using lies as leverage, he will only have one chip left in his hand.

This also means that he has almost lost the chance to win.

Even if the doubts fail, it doesn't matter. Transferring the red chips to the young man from the white fox will further reduce his chances of winning.

At worst, they'll just drag the game into the next round of speaking.

But Wu Wang still has two extra white neutral chips.

Their advantages are definitely much greater than those of the White Fox Youth.

No matter how you look at it, the opponent's use of the red lie as a bargaining chip was a risky move, or even a foolish one.

Given the thinking abilities that the young man from White Fox had previously demonstrated, it was impossible that he hadn't considered this step.

Suddenly, Wu Wang froze.

An unbelievable possibility popped into his head.

His expression then gradually became excited.

If anyone familiar with him were here, they might understand from that expression that Wu Wang was planning to have some fun.

Thump thump—thump thump—

The hearts of all the players present couldn't help but beat faster.

In their view, this is now almost a pinnacle showdown between two intellectual monsters.

Will Mr. Black Crow be able to guess what the young man from White Fox is thinking?
As time passed second by second.

Their expressions gradually changed from expectant tension to incredulous bewilderment.

As the ten-second questioning session slowly passed.

Wu Wang, however, remained completely silent.

He did not raise any questions!
Even the usually composed young man with the white fox expression turned serious.

"why?"

Listen to him raise his questions.

Wu Wang understood.

This guy definitely thought of the question from earlier too.

So he raised an eyebrow and teased, "Yeah, that's the question I wanted to ask you too."

"But you certainly won't tell me the answer now."

"It's okay, I'll find out later."

"Because I believe you wouldn't deliberately make such a stupid mistake in front of them."

After saying that, Wu Wang waited for the topic card to be handed to him.

The other players were also completely confused by what the two were saying.

I have absolutely no idea what this is talking about.

Please describe the person you admire most.

Snapped--

Wu Wang's next move stunned everyone except the young man with the white fox.

Because he even used his last red lie chip as a speaking resource!
And then he said, "The person I admire most is the White Fox sitting across from me right now."

"I admire his absolute rationality and powerful logical thinking ability!"

"To manipulate everyone present with such skill and intelligence on one's own is something I can't even begin to match."

These words plunged the entire room into a deathly silence.

This is... such an obvious lie!
No one would believe that the person you admire most is this white fox youth in front of you.

What is this guy even talking about?!
