Chapter 72: Death Poker 2
The poker card of the young man with a No. 1 perm and sunglasses mask was poked by An Yi, flying towards An Yi.
Actually, whether this card is the Skull Card or not, An Yi isn't particularly concerned about it. After all, even if this card isn't that Skull Card, An Yi has confidence that he can draw it later on. What's most important right now is whether the young man with the messy hair and sunglasses mask is telling lies or not.
Block 5.
The moment the poker card was selected, the square 5 automatically entered into An Yi's poker card and lined up behind the black spade J. At the same time, the order of the 7 cards belonging to An Yi changed to red spade J, black spade 3, square 9, square 7, plum Q, black spade J, and square 5.
Looking at the order of the cards, An Yi's eyes flickered.
The drawn card automatically goes to the far right of the tableau, which is the far left from the player's perspective.
Is each drawn card placed on the far right? Or is it randomly arranged in position? And are they all the same for everyone?
A guess flashed through An Yi's mind and was immediately suppressed.
Just draw a circle below and extract one more time, the young man's card with the 1 number volume, ink glasses, and mask will be completely clear.
If every time someone draws a card, it always ends up on the far right side, which is the far left side from the drawer's perspective. Then...
When Xiaoyi drew the first card from the deck, the second card to her left was always the skull card.
After the fifth block is fixed in the far right position on the An Yi card face, the red peach J and black peach J flash simultaneously, and instantly transform into a flashing fluorescent piece.
The two cards, red peach J and black peach J, disappeared from the surface of the card after An Yi, and the surface of the card changed to black peach 3, square 9, square 7, plum Q, and square 5.
An Yi had previously wondered why the two cards were not destroyed, and now it was clear that the paired cards would only be destroyed when they were drawn.
It's just...
An Yi looked at the young man with volume 1 hair, sunglasses and a mask in surprise.
Isn't there a hidden darkness? Or is it just what's being said?
An Yi hesitantly raised his hand to draw another card. But...
His arm had just lifted up, ready to select another card from the deck of 1st volume of "Meng Yan" (a popular Chinese web novel), when he slightly paused.
An Yi had originally planned to draw the 1st card from the left, the young man with sunglasses and a mask, when drawing the next round of poker cards. After all, after one round, the 1st card in the next round, the gray suit fat man, needs to be drawn first. If the card drawn is indeed as An Yi previously guessed, then it must be the skull card that is the second card from the left, directly opposite An Yi.
But at this time... if you can draw cards continuously, An Yi will definitely choose the first card on the far left.
Of course, this question alone would not have made An Yi pause. The reason why An Yi hesitated and stopped in his tracks was...
An Yi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly pointed to the card on the far left and asked, "Is this the Skull Card?"
Before the game started, there was a hint on the sheepskin paper roll that said the person who drew it could ask a question and the person drawn must answer. However, this hint wasn't explained in detail, and to An Yi's eyes, it seemed somewhat ambiguous.
Is it that in the entire Death Poker, each drawing person can only ask one question?
Is each person who draws a single wheel only allowed to ask one question?
Or is it one question per person per round?
Is it... possible for people to ask a question each time before drawing?
The first two possibilities, in An Yi's view, had the smallest probability. After all, whether it was a whole game of death poker or a single round where only one question could be asked, it didn't make much sense. So, it could only be one of the last two possibilities.
As for which possibility it is, An Yi naturally wants to figure it out first.
It seemed that An Yi had raised another question, and the young man with a messy bun, sunglasses, and a mask was taken aback for a moment.
Perhaps he didn't know how to answer or perhaps he just chose not to, but the young man with a messy bun, sunglasses and a mask suddenly fell silent.
At the moment when the two cards of red peach J and black peach J were destroyed, half of the 99 candles had already been burned out, and then they all reignited again.
The 99 candles that had been re-lit one by one went out again, while the young man with a perm, sunglasses and mask remained silent.
Just as An Yi thought it was very likely that each drawing person could only ask one question per round, the dull voice appeared again: "As a drawn card, No. 1 must answer the question of the No. 2 drawer. If no response is given within the specified time, it will be considered a foul."
Wearing sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and a mask on his cheeks, it was impossible to see any expression changes on the face of the young man with volume 1 hair, sunglasses and mask. However, at the moment when the dull prompt sound appeared, it seemed that the body of the young man with volume 1 hair, sunglasses and mask slightly twitched.
If no answer is given within the specified time, it will be considered a foul. The consequences of fouling are not detailed, but... even thinking about it with one's toenails, one knows it can't be anything good. In fact, the cost might even be one's own life.
The young man with the No. 1 volume hair and sunglasses mask turned his neck slightly, seemingly glancing at the far left card that An Yi was pointing to, which was also the one on the far right side of the young man's field of vision. He hesitated for a moment: "This one isn't a skull card either."
The low-key gorgeousness represented by the mottled colors concealed An Yi's figure, and at this time, after the young man with a messy bun, ink glasses, and a mask finished speaking, An Yi obviously raised an eyebrow, followed by...
An Yi raised his hand again and pointed at the card he had previously pointed at: "Then I'll take that one."
At the moment An Yi chose, the poker card floated in An Yi's direction.
An Yi's gaze quickly shifted towards the poker card that had floated into his line of sight. Whether his previous guess was correct or not would depend on whether this card was indeed a Skull Card.
Almost identical to the skull on the roulette wheel, but at this time, just entering the last card of An Yi's face, there was only a dark skull head, no skeleton, no blade or handcuffs.
As soon as he saw this skull badge, An Yi's heart slightly relaxed.
Each time the cleaning race is drawn, it should be the principle of immediate extraction. At least combined with the last cleaning method 'intelligence group' and the 'immediate extraction' prompt before each cleaning race starts, An Yi thinks so. Then...
In every washing contest it is very likely that the method chosen at random will be unfamiliar to most people.
In unfamiliar situations, whoever can dig out some of the hidden rules earlier and more comprehensively will necessarily gain a certain advantage.
Each player has one chance to ask a question each time they draw a card.
Drawn cards will be placed by default on the far right side of the card face.
He glanced at the young man with a black sunglasses and mask who had retreated into the darkness, and An Yi's cheek slightly turned to look to the right.
Without any surprise, after the youth with sunglasses and a mask disappeared into the darkness at position No. 1, a figure emerged from position No. 3.
He didn't panic with the skull card in his hand, and An Yi calmly looked towards No. 3's direction.
In an instant when the figure emerged from the darkness, a middle-aged man around 30 years old, No. 3, pinched the collar of his olive green overcoat with one hand.
Seemingly deep in thought, the middle-aged man in the green No. 3 jacket didn't say a word, nor did he raise his hand to point at any of the poker cards belonging to An Yi.
Hei Tao J and Hong Tao J were destroyed because of the 1st volume, Mo Jian mouth mask youth An Yi, who had drawn two cards at this time, now has a total of six poker cards.
The man in the green No. 3 overcoat was deep in thought, his eyes scanning back and forth over the six poker cards that belonged to An Yi, who at the same time was reconfirming the arrangement of his own cards.
Three of Clubs, Nine of Diamonds, Seven of Diamonds, Queen of Spades, Five of Diamonds, Joker.
Calmly waiting in No. 3 green woolen coat, the middle-aged man's choice, An Yi also kept silent, but his brain was spinning rapidly.
For now, the biggest threat to An Yi is the middle-aged man in the 3rd green windbreaker.
If possible, An Yi naturally wanted to see him off.
Of course, although the biggest threat to An Yi for the time being is the middle-aged man in the 3rd green jacket, An Yi does not want him to be eliminated this round.
The next one is the one who must know whether the previous one is lying or not. If this round, 3rd green woolen coat middle-aged man goes out of the circle, then in the next round, No. 4 will become An Yi's next one.
At that time, the 4th position will only lack information about whether An Yi is lying for one round, which doesn't have much significance and will still pose a threat to An Yi.
Unless... An Yi comes up with a way to get the middle-aged man in the 3rd green woolen coat out of the way, then thinks of a way to get No. 4 out of the way, and continues to get No. 5 out of the way.
But...that's too difficult.
The best way is to let the 3rd green jacket middle-aged man gradually fall into disadvantage in the second round, or even be eliminated in a few rounds.
The most ideal situation for An Yi is that the middle-aged man in the 3rd green woolen coat would be eliminated in the 8th round. In this case, if An Yi himself doesn't make a mistake, no one else will know whether he lied or not in the first 8 rounds!
Of course... If the middle-aged man in the green woolen coat No. 3 is lucky enough to survive the 8th round and enters the 9th round with An Yi at the same time, then... As the middle-aged man in the green woolen coat No. 3 who knows whether An Yi lied in the first 8 rounds, he will have a high probability of defeating An Yi.
That's walking on thin ice! An Yi naturally didn't want to take that risk.
So... An Yi's next move is to find a way to hinder the middle-aged man in the 3rd green woolen coat, and try to get him out between rounds 2 and 5.
Although this is not the greatest advantage for An Yi, it is the most stable. After all, if you walk on a tightrope and fall off in the end, the consequences will be disastrous!
As for how to obstruct the middle-aged man in the 3rd green woolen coat... For example! Think of a way to deliver the skull badge into the hands of the middle-aged man in the 3rd green woolen coat.
One by one, the candles went out. When half of them had burned out, a middle-aged man in a green overcoat finally spoke up.
It's just...
The other party's question made An Yi's eyebrows jump slightly.
"The two cards you just destroyed are which ones." The middle-aged man in the green woolen overcoat pulled his collar and looked thoughtful.
The destroyed card is what card, except for the owner knows, others do not know. Of course, there is still a chance to infer. For example... The next house drew the previous house's card and then appeared to be destroyed, so it may have been drawn from the previous house that can be paired with the card. Then the previous house may know which two cards the next house used to form a pair.
Of course, due to the opening reasons, An Yi's situation is not good at this time.
His eyebrows slightly furrowed, and his calm eyes sparkled, but he didn't respond immediately. Instead, he pondered why the middle-aged man in the green No. 3 overcoat was asking this question.
