The Eighteen Levels Of Hell Lying Is Forbidden Here Chapter 616

[ … words ]

Chen Ran ignored Yue Guanshan, but directed at the question Qiu Yinong just raised, he proceeded to answer: “Control Variable Method.”

“Assume a small town, altogether having one hundred residents. Just like you said just now, they sink into a time loop and every time lose their memory.”

“Assume you are a resident of the small town, and you discover there is a murderer in the small town, and the people killed by him won’t appear in the next loop. What do you have to do to be able to determine who the murderer is?”

“Very simple, if it was me, I would kill people in the loops just like the murderer.”

“Assume in the first time loop, one person is killed. Then apart from you, you can be certain the murderer is among the remaining 98 people.”

“Assume in the second time loop, another person is killed, this probability…”

“By parity of reasoning, when in the final time loop, only you and the murderer are left.”

“The key point of the Control Variable Method lies in that you must determine your final plan in the first time loop. Only this way can it ensure that you, in the subsequent loops, will proceed forward according to this plan.”

Simply put, if your wish is to test into university, then even if given an opportunity to start over, you would still strive according to the goal of testing into university; deviations won’t appear.

This was very easy to understand. After all, within this determined goal, the number of people would decrease following the time loops. Then ultimately, sooner or later, a situation of only eight people remaining would appear.

When only eight people remain, then they will be influenced by the goals they formulated themselves, thereby making a final showdown inside the laboratory.

In other words, the Control Variable Method is precisely within the loop, determining what will not be affected by the loop, thereby arranging it into one’s own goal, leading to that even if a deviation appears in every time loop, the ultimate result will all complete the established goal.

Just like the example Chen Ran gave.

Since the number of people in the small town is not affected by the time loop, then precisely plan this factor of the number of people into one’s own goal.

Namely: through killing people, let the number of people sinking into the time loop decrease every time.

Then, when the final time loop comes, and only you and the murderer are left, you can then…

…

Deducing up to here, Qiu Yinong couldn’t help but widen her eyes. This question of Chen Ran’s was said before entering the experimental building. That is to say, before Chen Ran entered the experimental building, he was already considering the Control Variable Method.

Actually this also wasn’t hard to understand. The Instance had to have players to be able to operate onward.

Him raising this question, was both considering formulating the Control Variable Method, and also ensuring the other people didn’t dare to kill him and Qiu Yinong.

Deducing up to here, Qiu Yinong could be considered to have seen clearly. Chen Ran and Yue Guanshan playing quantum entanglement at the Gymnasium was exactly acting.

The purely acting kind.

The scheming of the entire Instance, Qiu Yinong could be considered to have sorted out clearly, but was also extremely shocked.

…

Here there might still be doubts.

It’s regarding the number [14].

Might feel that.

[14] is the number of loops, but if one thinks carefully, it’s fundamentally impossible.

The mechanism of the time loop is not only that the people in the loop will all repeat the same day, but also that they will lose their memories in every loop.

Under this kind of situation, what difference is there between 14 time loops and 1 time loop?

There is none.

Simply put, if one had the thought that [14] was 14 time loops, then you would forever sink into the time loops.

After all, within this thought, you could clear the Instance doing absolutely nothing. You would treat every single loop as the first loop, waiting endlessly.

Therefore the thought of [14] being 14 time loops, is definitely wrong.

Might also feel that [14], perhaps is a certain event.

Then that’s even more impossible.

They had already deduced in the Instance, that this was an Instance, and that Qiu Yinong and Chen Ran might be players.

Also using their memories as a template. Then the event represented by [14], should be related to one of the two of them. But the problem was every single one of them was related to [14].

For example, Jiang Zhe, his student ID, class, as well as dorm, all directly or indirectly had the number [14] appear. Then that explains this number is not solely enjoyed by Qiu Yinong or Chen Ran, and is unrelated to their events.

It can only explain that this number is related to everyone. And in the Instance, what is the clue that is related to everyone?

Prohibiting lying!

So, deducing the fourteenth layer, Unjust Death Hell, from the number [14], has no problems logically.
