Four minutes passed quickly, and “Utility Pole” glanced at his own phone.

——————————————

Choice results:

Black: 2 people

White: 3 people

Please choose your color: “Black” “White”

Time limit: 01:00

“Utility Pole” furrowed his brows tightly.

“Hey! Who else is messing around!” he shouted angrily, his previously harmless demeanor gone in an instant. His gaze swept over everyone present and finally stopped on Wang Billy. “Is it you! You’re angry because I snatched the containment bonus from a mission from you, right!”

Wang Billy was clearly taken aback, “What are you talking about? That bonus was only 15 points, and we agreed at the time, those 15 points were for your medical expenses!”

“You see, you still remember that the bonus was 15 points, proving you’ve held a grudge!” Utility Pole roared.

Wang Billy’s face showed impatience: “I’m not forgetful, so what if I remember?”

In an instant, the harmony that was just there disappeared.

“Hey, hey… Argue all you want, but watch your time…” The uncle said blandly, with a playful look on his face.

“Utility Pole” huffed and glanced at his phone, only 40 seconds were left. He was about to press the “White” button when his finger paused midair and didn’t press down.

At that moment, the uncle glanced at him and spoke again, “Hey, don’t stop using your brain because you’re angry. The color chosen by most people might not be the correct one. What if three people are deceiving you?”

He said softly and picked his nose again.

“Utility Pole” furrowed his brows even more, he had naturally thought of this problem as well, which is why he started to hesitate.

Seeing his expression, the uncle rolled the booger around his fingers, “I can tell you, I chose black, and your color is white. Whether you believe it or not is up to you!”

Since the rules only prohibited them from looking at each other’s phones, the uncle simply stated “Utility Pole’s” color outright, while flicking away the booger he had been rolling in his hand.

“Utility Pole” slowly took a deep breath.

“Stay calm, think about it. If the uncle is lying, then my color is ‘Black.’ But he didn’t know others would lie to me when he made his choice, so it’s more likely he chose white. That means three people might want to deceive me. But there are four people after me who, apart from the ‘Uncle,’ definitely don’t want to disrupt this balance. Wang Billy isn’t a fool either, so the most likely scenario is that the uncle isn’t lying to me, and my color truly is ‘White.'”

Thinking this, he stealthily glanced at “Muscle Sister” next to him.

“If that’s the case, then the other person trying to deceive me is this woman. She safely made it through the first round and is now stabbing in the back after grinding the mill. But why would the uncle tell me this? He should want me to be eliminated, right? Or does he think that I would come to this conclusion, so he’s deliberately guiding my thoughts?”

“Utility Pole” pondered like this, and in the blink of an eye, there were only 10 seconds left.

“Based on probability, there’s a high chance that I am ‘White.’ But is this old man deceiving me again!!!” His mind raced, but he couldn’t come to a conclusion.

System prompt: “Countdown… 5, 4, 3,”

“Utility Pole” saw that time was almost up and gritted his teeth, roaring to himself, “Forget it! Let’s gamble!”

After that…

He pressed “White.”

System prompt: “Congratulations, you have chosen correctly.”

The moment the system prompt appeared, “Utility Pole” let out a long, unrestrained sigh of relief as if he had finally eased a severe constipation, leaning back into the chair with a sense of relief.

The uncle tilted his head at him with a teasing look, “Oh yo, I didn’t expect you to actually believe me?”

“Utility Pole” didn’t even glance at him, saying indifferently, “Don’t get chummy. Your actions don’t prove you were helping me; you might as well have been misleading me!”

The uncle shrugged nonchalantly and said nothing.

Just then, everyone’s phones rang again.

“Raggedy Uncle’s” avatar appeared on the screen.

Round One

(Game Three)

Current player color: “White”

Please select the color you want to tell her.

“Black”

“White”

Failure to select will be considered an elimination.

Timer starts: 04:00

——————————————

Taking advantage of the moment while checking his phone, Chen Xiao lowered his head to an angle where others couldn’t see his expression, smirked a few times like someone with OCD, soothing himself somewhat, then he directly chose “Black”.

So why did Chen Xiao choose “Black”?

Because he…um…he chose it randomly.

During the four minutes of this selection, everyone was very quiet because the “Slovenly Uncle” had been labeled as “sneaky” by “Muscle Sister’s” comment in the first round. Although the people present didn’t care much about it, they couldn’t be sure what others were thinking, and most importantly, everyone was thinking: “If we could use this opportunity to get rid of someone, that would be just perfect.”

Seeing the silent atmosphere around him, the “Slovenly Uncle” knew what others were thinking, he laughed and said, “Ah, it seems I’m not very popular.”

…

No one answered; everyone intentionally or unintentionally avoided his gaze.

“Well, I knew it would be like this,” he said in an indifferent tone.

…

…

The four minutes passed in a blink of an eye. It was Uncle’s turn to choose his color.

Displayed on his phone were:

“Black” 4 people.

“White” 1 person.

Uncle gave a slight smile, as if he saw what he was hoping for.

He looked up and asked the “Streetlight” next to him, “What did you choose?”

Streetlight ignored him, contemptuously turning his head away.

Uncle maintained his smile, putting on a look as if he had already seen through everything, “You don’t have to tell me… you chose black, right?”

Since “Streetlight” turned his head away, no one could see his expression.

“The reason I told you the correct answer last round wasn’t for nothing, it wasn’t to help you, I did it for the others to see,” the “Slovenly Uncle” continued talking to himself:

“Humans are like this, harboring selfishness in their hearts but not daring to show it. So, people will single out an individual within a group, regardless if it’s stupidity, ugliness, or whatever other reason, it doesn’t really matter. He will be isolated and immediately become the target of many arrows. In this way, everyone can project their malicious side onto that person while cautiously maintaining seemingly close relationships with others. After all, everyone is doing it, and no one will care. It’s like in every class, there’s always a student who gets isolated. Everyone bullies him, humiliates him, even hits him, treating him as if he is naturally destined to be treated that way. At the same time, no one dares to get close or have sympathy for him, because they fear the risk of being isolated themselves.”

With that, his eyes dimmed slightly.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but burst into a tirade, “Hey, Uncle, what’s with that expression you put on? It’s like you’re saying you’re that isolated student from your tale. And why do you generalize it to humanity? How tragic was your childhood? You’ve been reading too many of those teenage manga from some country.”

Uncle’s melancholic expression gradually faded as he continued, “So your chances of choosing the correct color are very slim, and the other four will think the same, therefore a 4 to 1 result is the best! As long as I choose the majority’s color, there’s at least a 75% chance it’s the right one. And that single ‘White’ is because there will definitely be someone trying to confuse things since everyone is unsure about what others will choose.”

The Uncle rambled on by himself, then a slight smile formed on the corners of his mouth.

“Lucky me, if it was 3 to 2, it would be up to luck!”

Afterward, his finger moved towards
