Mystery Makes Me Strong

How to solve this problem?

Lao Qi felt helpless.

But he soon stopped worrying.

Lao Qi was taken away.

After an interrogation, Lao Qi confessed.

He had to admit that if he didn't cheat, ordinary people would be ordinary people. Even if the opportunity was given to you, you couldn't grasp it and couldn't accomplish a great cause.

...

In a secret meeting room.

Four people were secretly discussing this great secret.

They were different in height, weight and thinness, and were simply called tall, short, fat, and thin.

"Artificial intelligence, self-programming, cross-era technology, robots killing people..."

One term after another, coupled with ironclad evidence, shocked one after another of the stakeholders.

"What should we do now?"

"I always feel that it is involved in a science fiction story."

"Yes, this is beyond our understanding. If we don't handle it well, it may cause a huge disaster."

As the four people were discussing, suddenly, a bright light flashed in the conference room.

A voice sounded in their minds:

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for successfully activating the "Rule Game" and entering the novice copy "Four-Sided Mirror"]

"What is it?"

"Is this a supernatural power?"

"Can robots and artificial intelligence do this?"

The four looked at each other.

The next moment, they found that the world had changed, and they were dizzy and in front of them. A new room changed.

At this time, the four subconsciously looked at their mobile phones.

They found that the mobile phone signal bar had turned into a question mark.

And the whole room is very Republican style, mahogany old master chair, eight-immortal table, bronze ware...

This is obviously an old house in the Republic of China.

What is strange is that there are four full-length mirrors in the corners of the room.

The silver-plated mirror was glowing with a cold blue-grey light, like four coffins placed vertically.

And on the table in the house, there was an ancient clock.

New game prompts sounded one after another:

[Players please pay attention to the following four points:

Zi Shi (23:00): The southeast mirror is developed, and a figure will appear in the mirror to play chess with the player.

Once the chess game fails, the player will be pulled into the mirror.

Chou Shi (01:00): A bloody puzzle will appear in each mirror, and fleshy vines will grow around the mirror frame. Be careful of these vines.

Once you fail to decipher, the vines will strangle you to death.

Yin Shi (03:00): The four mirrors will simultaneously play the player's life revolving lantern, and false memories will begin to be implanted. You must use your own logical ability to judge which memories are false.

For example, you were originally fat and ugly, but in your memory, there are five school beauties who favor you, bring you food, and help you copy homework - this is obviously false. 】

The three of them looked at the fat man when they heard this.

The fat man was shocked and said, "Damn it, there were five school beauties who brought me food and helped me copy homework when I was in school, but that was true. How did it know?"

"Tsk, you've been bragging for a long time." The thin man said disdainfully.

"Damn, this is not bragging. The cause of the incident was that it was raining one day, and I took my father's Porsche to go to school, and was seen by the school beauties."

"Later, a school beauty became my stepmother, and I realized that the drunkard's intention was not to drink." The fat man said angrily.

"Hahaha, this is the truth." Everyone laughed.

At the same time, they also felt a little cold - this game actually knew such a private thing about them!

At this time, a new prompt appeared:

[Mao time (05:00): The survivors will hear the cry of their birth in the mirror. Note that you need to find a suitable exit at this time. If you can't get out, you will die of dystocia. 】

The four looked at each other, and they looked at the mirrors in the four corners.

Then they looked at their phones again.

The time on the phone is now 10 o'clock in the evening.

"There is still one hour before the southeast mirror is activated." The fat man said solemnly.

The three of them looked at the southeast mirror together.

At this time.

The Taotie pattern on the bronze mirror frame in the northwest corner suddenly began to swallow its tail, and fleshy vines began to spread.

A voice appeared: "Fatty, how many umbrellas have you lost since you were a child?"

The mirror in the northwest corner was rippling.

The reflections of four people appeared in the mirror, and they spoke together.

Tall, short, fat and thin, the four people in the mirror were all drawing words on the mirror with their right index fingers.

It was densely packed small regular script characters - all "umbrella" written in different handwritings.

The four people turned their heads immediately to look.

A cold sweat slid down the spine into the coccyx.

"No, the time on our phones is wrong!"

"Yes, without a signal, the time cannot be corrected. This time is wrong."

"We must correct the time again."

The four people said, and quickly adjusted the time to Chou Shi (01:00).

After adjusting the time, they began to think about this puzzle.

They all thought about how to solve this problem.

When the fat man thought of a number and was about to blurt it out, he was horrified to find that the person in the mirror had turned into a woman.

The mirror in the southeast direction suddenly heard a terrible scratching sound of nails.

A woman in a bloody wedding dress appeared inside.

She was beating the mirror frantically, as if to attract everyone's attention.

Blood oozed from her fingers and flowed on the mirror.

Finally, she suddenly wrote an answer: "147".

"I know who she is. She is my stepmother, my childhood sweetheart, and my school beauty." The fat man said painfully.

The three of them were speechless.

What a weird plot unfolded?

How did my childhood sweetheart become my stepmother?

What a life like a jingle.

Then the fat man began to answer by himself: "147."

The moment this number appeared, all four people in the mirror suddenly began to bleed.

"No, there is something wrong with the answer!"

"Wrong." The four mirrors sounded an electronic synthesized sound at the same time.

A kerosene gas dead wind lamp in the style of the Republic of China suddenly exploded into countless glass fragments.

The northwest mirror stretched out five black arms like octopus tentacles.

The school beauty's mouth was wide open: "You said you would always carry the umbrella I gave you."

The fat man fell to the ground and retreated backwards.

His back hit the mirror in the northeast corner.

And in that mirror, an old woman in shroud suddenly appeared...

It was his mother.

"Child, come in, come in quickly, your father doesn't want you anymore, I want you."

Under the old voice, the fat man suddenly turned his head, and saw a palm like a dead branch through the mirror to grab the fat man's shoulder.

In the rotten sandalwood smell, she lost a few teeth and spelled out a hint in the fat man's palm: look at the clock.

He immediately looked at the clock from the Republic of China.

The pointer on the clock was pointing to zero.

He suddenly understood.

He remembered that there was a storage room full of lost umbrellas at home.

Someone brought him umbrellas back, but they were all put away by the nanny.

"The correct answer is," the fat man pinched a crescent-shaped blood mark on his thigh, and he let the old woman in the shroud stick her fingers into his shoulder blade, "I never lost the umbrella, it was the umbrella that abandoned me, just like you!"

The mirror made a hissing sound like film burning.

The wedding dress girl in the northwest mirror was suddenly pierced by countless black umbrellas.

The ribs of the umbrella pierced out from her eye sockets and fingers.

It was like a steel rainstorm in the mirror world.

The fat man passed the test.

And the second question came soon.

The tall man in the southwest mirror was writing on the mirror with the umbilical cord when he was born.

What a horrifying and incomprehensible picture.

Although the four people all worked in special departments, they also felt their scalps tingling.

After all, this was peacetime, and they had not seen many bloody scenes.

The amniotic fluid mixed with blood flowed along the carved patterns of the mirror frame, forming a small red puddle at the feet of the tall man...

"How many people you have loved remember your birthday?"

The tall man suddenly became nervous.

"Not one?" asked the short man.

"Impossible, my mom and dad at least remember."

"I love them too."

"The question is whether this counts as love in question?" asked the fat man a little nervously.

"It counts, but there are many traps here, and I can't be sure, let's take a gamble!" The tall man gritted his teeth and said, "It's two people."

"Correct answer." The tall man in the mirror disappeared.

The four people breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon a new question appeared.

This time it was the thin man's turn.

The thin man rubbed his hands, and the first two questions were answered, so he must be able to do it!

"Thin man, how many bowls of rice have you eaten?"

The others were also stunned.

The thin man was stunned.

"What kind of puzzle is this? This is unfair!" The fat man shouted first, "This is too difficult!"

"Yeah, who can still remember how much food they have eaten?" The tall man also said nervously.

The short man didn't say anything, but there was despair on his face.

One person is wrong, four people die, who wouldn't be nervous?

"No, this question is too simple, because I grew up in the north, and I grew up in the ice and snow, and I never ate rice since I was a child." The thin man said subconsciously.

"Correct answer."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

They found that this question was not very difficult, and it was very particular.

They only needed to put in a little effort to easily solve the problem.

Finally it was the short man's turn.

Everyone was looking forward to the appearance of the fourth puzzle.

"How many stars are there in the sky..."

Everyone was stunned.

They suddenly realized that this was a trap.

"This trap is used to deceive us!"

"Yes, it is used to deceive us." The fat man said angrily, "At the beginning, they gave us three simple questions, and when it came to the fourth question."

"Suddenly, a very difficult question came up, and you couldn't answer it."

The tall man nodded and said, "I think there must be an evil guy behind us enjoying our fear, and they must be laughing at our stupidity!"

...

"It's over, they found out, so it's better to kill them." Xiao Huan blinked his big eyes and said.

"Okay, designing games is designing games, don't cross the bottom line." Wen Rensheng said helplessly.

Teaching children to be too kind will be ridiculed as a saint, but teaching children to be evil is shooting themselves in the foot.

...

The four of them felt defeated at this time.

"The guy who designed the game behind the scenes is so hateful!"

"That's right, what should we do now?"

"There is no way, we can only guess an answer now!"

The four people exchanged their inner thoughts.

"Try to answer the question first."

"How many stars are there in the sky? Answer countless."

At this time, the tall man suddenly said:

"I have the answer."

"What time is it now?"

"It should be more than two o'clock in the morning now."

"Where are we now?"

"We are in the room."

"Our sky is the ceiling, and there are no stars in the sky."

The thin man then said to the mirror: "No stars."

"Wrong answer."

The four people were shocked.

In the mirror, countless vines began to entangle them.

The fat man was frightened and shrank back directly.

"Raise your head, Fatty, don't embarrass us!" The tall man roared.

"Yes, even if you die, you must have the courage to stand up and die!"

"It's just a death at most!"

The fat man gritted his teeth and held on.

The four people shrank to the middle of the house.

The vines of the four mirrors spread over.

Fortunately, they were very slow.

And at this time.

They began to think of ways to deal with these vines.

"There's an oil lamp over there!"

There was a kerosene lamp from the Republic of China that was broken before.

They picked up the oil lamp and used the sputtering flames to splash on the vines.

Sure enough, the speed of the vines was delayed.

The short man was still thinking.

"How many stars are there in the sky?"

Suddenly.

The short man remembered a brain hole he had seen on the Internet, and he answered decisively: "There is only one star in the sky."

Suddenly, the vines retreated quickly.

The other three looked at the short man in surprise.

"How did you think of it?"

"Yeah, how could you answer that there is only one star?"

"Actually, I guessed it blindly." The short man did not say what he thought in his heart, he perfunctorily said.

Obviously the answer of this star is correct.

What does this mean?

Is there really only one star in the sky?

The short man was puzzled by this, but he knew that there was a great terror behind it!

Is there really only one star in the sky in his world?

Then the sun, the moon, the nine planets (eight planets + one unlucky guy), countless asteroids... countless stars.

Aren't they all considered stars?

Just like dwarf planets, aren't they considered planets?

...

At this time.

Wen Rensheng was watching the doubts of these people.

He couldn't help shaking his head.

In fact, the answer is indeed correct.

The short man was right.

There is indeed only one star in their sky.

There is no conspiracy.

The reason is very simple.

Their world is in the void world.

The whole world is shrouded in a layer of moving curtain.

A huge star shines through the hole.

The sun they see is the largest hole.

The moon and stars are also formed by the light emitted from the hole.

There is only one star, this is the truth of the world.

Of course, there will be many bugs in the eyes of ordinary people.

But it doesn't matter, the creator of the world will let them ignore this bug.

Just like the world that Wen Rensheng came from, there are also many things that are not logical and intuitive.

For example, the world is discontinuous.

Microscopic particles are teleporting and uncertain.

Time cannot be divided infinitely, and there is a minimum time granularity.

And the speed of light is constant, no matter what reference system it is in.

This is actually the most contrary to common sense.

After all, people are used to classical mechanics where speeds are different in different reference systems.
