Chapter 416 The Possibility of Crime

Qin Yao was somewhat surprised: "If it's phrased differently, does that mean he's doomed? It can't be that bad, can it? Fu Chen's father is just a teacher or staff member in a college entrance exam preparation factory, isn't he?"

"Even if this school is really strict with students and there have been cases of students jumping off buildings, does that mean all the blame should be placed on him?"

Cai Zhiyuan shook his head: "So, this is the part that the Spring and Autumn Annals style of writing can influence."

"Did Peng Hong's crimes warrant death? Of course not."

"Based on the inferences made by the audience who accused Peng Hong, Peng Hong probably owns a factory or electronics factory and collaborates with some schools to cheat some students who come for internships."

"Moreover, Peng Xinyuan's sentence was not severe, which means that it most likely only involved withholding wages, and there should be no work-related injury or death."

"Even so, Peng Hong still received more votes of guilt."

"The reason is that the players who accused him linked his 'career' with his 'children's education'."

"Two people of the same age, one working in his factory screwing in screws and having his wages docked, while the other is studying abroad and living a comfortable life."

"Simply because the latter is his child."

"Isn't Fu Yujun the same?"

"He works as a teacher or staff member in the 'Gaokao factory,' and he will most likely be strictly managed according to the school's rules and regulations. His performance pressure will also be transmitted to many children, and this pressure may further harm many children."

"The most serious case is jumping off a building, but many of those who didn't jump also likely suffered severe psychological trauma."

"But he educated Fu Chen very well."

"Although we don't know Fu Chen's specific educational background, we know from our previous conversations that he should have attended a good university. Judging from his optimistic and positive attitude, he probably hasn't been through the 'exam factory' experience."

Zheng Jie was stunned for a moment: "Huh, how can they not be subjected to this kind of torment? If it's the area where the college entrance exam factory is located, the whole city or even the whole province should be in a similar situation, right?"

"If you want to go to university, you can't avoid it."

Wang Yongxin thought for a moment: "There are two possibilities. The first is that Fu Yujun doesn't care too much about Fu Chen's academic performance, so he sent him to a relatively relaxed school that he could find nearby."

"But this possibility is relatively low. As a faculty member of the school, Fu Yujun must be very clear about the importance of education. In provinces where the college entrance examination is a major industry, the teaching quality of general high schools is often too poor, and they are not a good choice."

"The second type is college entrance examination migrants."

"Fu Yujun most likely sent Fu Chen to another province. So, it's more likely that Fu Chen was able to get into university normally in a relatively low-pressure environment, and then became a live streamer based on her own judgment after graduation... This is the more probable scenario."

“I remember seeing similar news. In the college entrance examination factories, the lower-level teachers often choose to put their children in the college entrance examination factories, but the higher-level teachers, even the principals, often choose to go directly to the college entrance examination migration route.”

"After all, lower-level faculty and staff will be assimilated by this model, but those at the top know better than anyone what the true nature of this model is."

Cai Zhiyuan nodded: "Yes, that's certainly a possibility."

"However, since we can't see the files and have no way to verify with Fu Chen, this idea can only remain a guess."

"But in any case, considering Fu Chen's personality, learning ability, interpersonal skills, and career, Fu Yujun should be quite open-minded towards him."

"But this stands in stark contrast to Fu Yujun's professional crimes."

"If these facts are pointed out, can the audience still genuinely believe that Fu Yujun is innocent?"
"Between him and Peng Hong, whose crime is more serious?"
"From this point of view, although Fu Yujun and Fu Chen, father and son, have similar backgrounds, they are fundamentally different: "If Fu Chen were in Fu Yujun's position, even if he could not change the status quo of the school, he would definitely resign and leave. He could not continue to work in such an environment, let alone play a part in the management of this system."

"Therefore, if we try to bring Fu Yujun over and expect him to become a replacement for Fu Chen, we will probably end up with the opposite result."

Everyone fell into silence.

Zhou Guifen clearly disagreed with this statement: "However, in the games outside the venue, Fu Yujun did his best to facilitate cooperation from beginning to end, and he also helped me a lot."

"Perhaps he can't do what Fu Chen does, but in terms of both reliability and moral standards, he's much better than the average person in the brothel, isn't he?"

Cai Zhiyuan explained, "I'm not saying whether Fu Yujun is good or bad."

"Let me put it this way: if the Fu Yujun we're trying to recruit is 'a new player,' I think that's perfectly fine; but if the Fu Yujun we're trying to recruit is 'Fu Chen's father,' I don't agree."

"But if we bring Aunt Zhou's child, Shen Xing, to our community, I would completely agree."

Lee In-sook paused for a moment: "We've gotten a bit off-topic. The issue of recruiting new members involves a lot of things, so we'll discuss it separately later."

"Are there any other questions regarding the replay of this game?"

Zheng Jie thought for a moment and concluded, "I think I've figured it out pretty much. This game isn't particularly complicated, and the overall concept is quite clear."

"The challenges for the players inside the field are more difficult. First, they need to cooperate as much as possible and find other players to help them share the punishment. Second, they need to guess the existence of the players outside the field and try to pass on information to the outside, hinting at the use of the funds. Finally, they need to be calm and collected enough to complete the 'track in the painting'."

"It's relatively easier for the players outside the venue. First of all, the players outside the venue are the ones who actually decide on the 'car modification plan,' but they don't have all the information. They have to judge and speculate by observing the behavior of the players inside the venue. Secondly, when acting as the 'sharer,' they should pay attention to their wording and find cooperative players to transfer the 'opposition vote.'"

"As long as we can exchange dissenting votes like Fu Yujun and Aunt Zhou did, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Is my summary correct?"

Yang Yuting nodded: "Yes, no problem."

"Overall, the core of this game is 'guessing the files'."

"It's not just the audience guessing; the players inside and outside the venue are also guessing. Whoever guesses the identities, professions, and corresponding crimes of these players first will gain the upper hand and have a great chance of winning."

"But not every player performed to their full potential."

"Perhaps some players have developed a path dependency because they always see the files revealed when they encounter trial-type games."

"This game doesn't reveal the criminals' files, but instead uses the game's content as a metaphor throughout, which may leave many players helpless and resigned to fate."

Everyone fell silent again.

Seeing that no one else was speaking, Dai Yifan, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up: "So, if we encounter similar games again, whether they are trial-based or elimination-based, we should still try to consider the player's crimes as much as possible, and then think of strategies in combination with the game mechanics, right?"

Yang Yuting thought for a moment and said, "Yes, that's how it is based on the current situation, but it's uncertain whether things will change in the future."

Wei Yinzhang thought for a moment: "There shouldn't be much change."

"If the sinner files are used, but the game content is not designed around the sinners' crimes, it is likely to violate the underlying rules of the arcade and will most likely be rejected."
