Chapter 597: Chapter 597: Exchange Numbers
 

Once Xu Fanghe finished speaking, everyone concurred, considering it the most secure method.

Even though scratching off the numbers would reveal their own, they were exposing them while Blue Eyes were also doing the same – it had the semblance of an equal exchange.

Unless they were extremely unlucky: Blue Eyes gave all Yellow Eyes’ numbers, causing them to wipe off three numbers.

However, this probability was minutely small.

Bai Youwei quietly listened to these people’s discussions.

As a Red Eyes, she certainly did not wish for Red Eyes to be sandwiched from both sides.

The reason she voted for the 1st player in the last round was that she did not want a significant disparity in the number of people. Imagine, if Red Eyes, relying on their numerical advantage, easily wiped out Yellow Eyes and Blue Eyes, but the X-person happened to be among the Red Eyes, what then?

That would be the worst-case scenario.

—In the same team, order would break down, trust would shatter, and the person who controlled the discourse could effortlessly crush the remaining players!

Yes, it would be the three leading figures controlling the narrative.

Amongst these three, there must be one person who is the X-person!

Because, in this game, if the X-person wants to win, they must exhibit an extreme need to control, to ensure they survive each round of voting. Going with the flow or blindly following the vote, would absolutely not work.

Xu Fanghe could be the X-person, Blue Eyes’ boss could be the X-person, as well as the boss’s white companion, and the short-haired woman in the Red Eyes team…

Bai Youwei remembered very clearly, the Inspector’s exact words were:

“After five rounds of voting, there will be only five players left. If the eye colours of these five players are the same, then congratulations~ You have won the game, gaining entry qualifications!

But if the eye colours of the five players differ… You have lost, and only the X-person will be the winner!”

Therefore, rushing to eliminate other colours now is not wise. It is imperative to find out who the X-person is.

Bai Youwei lowered her eyelids, leisurely touching the plush rabbit in her embrace. It’s such a shame that violence cannot be used…

Otherwise, she would have electrocuted them one by one, sooner or later she could have found the X-person, why bother using so much brainpower?

…

After some discussion, Xu Fanghe, along with the spectacle-wearing man, went out to negotiate cooperation with the Blue Eyes, while the woman with the scarf was assigned to watch over the Red Eyes, preventing them from making any unusual moves.

Bai Youwei had no tasks. She idled, playing with the rabbit.

She couldn’t possibly have a task since she was a Red Eyes. Subconsciously, the Yellow Eyes would always guard against her.

About an hour later, Xu Fanghe returned with the spectacle guy.

And he brought back three numbers:

17, 22, and 26.

Immediately, someone’s complexion changed and stuttered, “Dr. Xu Fanghe, I … my number is 22 …”

Xu Fanghe crossed out 22, then asked others, “Are the remaining two numbers any of yours?”

Everyone looked at each other, no one spoke.

Xu Fanghe folded the paper and handed it to the specs guy, “In that case, we can confirm that 17 and 26 are Red Eyes. Hand this over to the other side.”

The specs guy nodded, meticulously put the paper into his pocket, and then left under the darkening sky.

When he returned, he brought back a new set of numbers:

17, 23, and 26.

Xu Fanghe decided conclusively, “For the second round of voting, we vote for these three numbers.”

Bai Youwei silently glanced at him.

The three numbers provided by Yellow Eyes were “2, 23, 25”. 2 and 25 were both crossed out, which meant that, both these numbers were Blue Eyes.
