Weird Live Broadcast: I Can Deduce Endlessly

Chapter 108: Answering the Questions

Qu Kangping blinked, "You can't... really use weird powers in reality, can you?"

Gu Yi closed his eyes, trying again.

"No." Gu Yi shook his head, "If I really could use weird powers, I'd probably be like Jin Xin, unable to touch salt frost."

"But your sixth sense is quite terrifying. It's almost like weird power."

"Yeah." Ah Jian exclaimed, "To be able to use weird powers and not be affected by salt frost, that's simply being invincible."

"Well... Like I said, it's not a weird power. It's a sixth sense, or some type of intuition, perhaps?"

Qu Kangping leaned in, seriously looking at Gu Yi, "Can you tell me how you do it? This could be a significant discovery for us."

"How did I do it? I just did what you told me to."

"Me? What did I say?"

"You once said that fishing can help sharpen intuition and mental strength. I found that quite useful." Gu Yi scratched his head, "You guys go on with your work; I need to use the restroom."

Ah Jian watched Gu Yi's departing figure and said in a leisurely tone, "Team Leader, didn't you say that the thing about fishing strengthening the mental power was just a made-up story?"

"Not anymore." Qu Kangping looked at Ah Jian seriously, "Starting from tomorrow, every agent after work must fish for two hours."

...

"Adventurer, your rest time is over."

"Please proceed to the designated location and return to the Weird World to continue your challenge."

"If you can't reach the designated location within 2 hours, you'll be considered to have withdrawn from the adventure in the Weird World."

As soon as Gu Yi opened his eyes, he heard the system notification.

Purple lightning began to strike at the horizon, and on the vacant lot where Gu Yi had descended previously, a portal to the void appeared once again.

Ah Jian pushed open the dormitory door, "Gu Yi, are you returning again?"

"Um."

"You could entirely stay in the real world. No one will pressure you; you're already a hero to humanity."

"I'm not doing this because I fear pressure," Gu Yi said with a smile, "I'm just searching for the meaning of life."

"You speak like a philosopher writing a prose."

"Alright, Brother Ah Jian," Gu Yi stood up and walked out of the dormitory, "Keep an eye on Jin Xin. Next time I return, I want to talk to him again."

"Gu Yi."

"Yes?"

"Good luck."

"Thanks."

Gu Yi walked to the open field, with members of the strategy team watching him from their windows as he left.

...

Qu Kangping lit a cigarette and turned on the surveillance monitor.

In the video, Gu Yi was sitting motionless in a classroom like a statue. The students around him were writing fervently without looking up.

Qu Kangping then switched to live feeds from other countries.

Last time, only the adventurer from the Lighthouse Country, Chris, had survived. He unlocked the talent of Inspiration and also possessed an incredibly robust resistance to mental erosion.

The side effect of Inspiration was being more susceptible to mental erosion, but Chris, with his robust resistance to mental erosion, was on par with Gu Yi in terms of strength.

Apart from Gu Yi and Chris, the remaining adventurers were all new recruits.

Qu Kangping glanced at his phone. The dark web had started placing bets on who would win between Chris and Gu Yi.

"These people are so bored."

Qu Kangping looked up at the screen.

Gu Yi had regained his mobility and was now looking around, seemingly clueless about his purpose.

...

[Dungeon Name] Final Examination

[Dungeon Description] Every day, we tackle questions, judging our own life or death, predicting others' futures, and outlining the horrors of life. Freedom is no longer what we seek; we merely wish to survive.

[Clearance Conditions]

[1. Perfect Level: Investigate the truth behind Wapeng High School and pursue freedom or death.

2. Excellent Level: Successfully escape from Wapeng High School and pursue freedom.

3. Normal Level: Successfully pass the final exam and pursue death.]

The basic information of the instance appeared in Gu Yi's mind.

The clearance conditions surprisingly don't mention the elimination of the Unspeakable, which was quite unusual.

There are only two possibilities.

One, there's no Unspeakable in this dungeon.

Two, the Unspeakable in this dungeon cannot be eliminated.

Both the instance description and the clearance conditions mentioned "death" and "freedom." Are these terms to be taken literally or do they imply something else?

Gu Yi speculated that it's probably the latter.

If one could simply choose death to clear the dungeon, wouldn't committing suicide at the start complete the dungeon?

After glancing at the dungeon's description, Gu Yi quickly came to a conclusion.

This dungeon probably delves into the discussion of freedom and death, set within a high school named Wapeng. Gu Yi looked around and saw all the students hunched over, writing. While he hadn't properly regained control over his body yet.

He looked down at his desk, the words on the exam paper were blurry.

About ten seconds later, the words became clear, and Gu Yi regained his freedom.

[Please answer seriously. Once you write an answer, it cannot be changed.]

[List the three most important people and three most significant items in your life.]

Gu Yi inspected both sides of the paper but couldn't find a second question. Instead of hastily writing an answer, he closed his eyes.

(Deduction begins!)

(You observe the other test-takers. Everyone's exam paper looks identical. Although they are all seemingly engrossed, not all of them are writing.)

(Their expressions are tense and pained.)

(The invigilator comes over, tapping your head with a ruler.)

(Invigilator: This is an exam, no looking around.)

(You: I'm sorry.)

(You lower your head.)

(You briefly observed the classroom setup but didn't spot any hint or clue.)

(You glance at your pencil case and find a handwritten note inside.)

([What makes us human is our complex emotions.])

(You look at your school uniform, feeling an inexplicable restlessness.)

(You refocus on the question.)

(The invigilator loudly announces: There are five minutes left in the exam, please hurry.)

(You ponder for a moment.)

(You want to write the names of your family members in the answer column, but your intuition tells you not to be so rash.)

(You jot down the names of three random people, all with your last name.)

(For the three items, you list the autographed book of the Stone Giant, a limited edition pair of sneakers, and your beloved bike.)

(The end-of-exam bell rings.)

(The invigilator collects the papers.)

(You leave the classroom with all the other students and are directed into an adjacent waiting room.)

(Some students were engrossed in their books, while others discussed the exam they had just taken.)

(You tried to blend in with the students and chatted casually with them.)

(The invigilator entered the waiting room with a list, calling out your name.)

(You were led by the invigilator into an office.)

(Inside the office, all the teachers were engrossed in grading papers. You noticed the wall opposite the office had the "Wapeng High School Student Code of Conduct" written on it.)

([Wapeng High School Student Code of Conduct])

(1. Always remember the school motto of honesty and integrity.)

(2. Obey the management of the teachers.)

(3. Maintain friendly and helpful relations with classmates.)

(4.During the final exams, strictly adhere to exam protocols and requirements.)

(5. The school operates under a strict enclosed system. Until the end of your studies, you are not allowed to leave the school or contact the outside world in any form.)
