Sakura didn't seem very surprised by this and didn't say much.

Sakura: He's obsessed with becoming the student council president, so if he's asking for peace, that's fine. I'm always worried.

Naoki: [What? Are you afraid that I will lose? ]

【Sakura: No, there is always danger.】

Naoki: [I understand what my sister means. Anyway, what Mibu Tatsuki does in the future has nothing to do with us. Let him do whatever he wants.]

[Sakira: Yeah. 】

Naoki: [Sister, skiing in Switzerland?]

"I'll go with you. But why are you posting it online? It's embarrassing."

Naoki:……

You wouldn't have guessed that Sakura is actually shy about showing affection. It seems like she actually likes secret relationships.

Naoki: [I just want everyone to know that we're in a relationship. Otherwise, what if my sister denies it and runs away?]

How could he possibly run away...

A blush also appeared on Sakura's face on the other side. Naoki... I really like this kind of soft and tender girl who clings to me.

Such liveliness, releasing one's love and emotions without any scruples.

……

You seem to be in a good mood.

The phone suddenly rang with a message. When Naoki saw the masked profile picture, the corner of his mouth twitched as he was about to go to bed.

"You're really scary like this, it's like you're watching me."

[I just took a look at your chat history. Are you happy being in a relationship with two girlfriends at the same time?]

Naoki:……

Can AI No. 8 understand the emotion of happiness?

[Of course, it's fun to be in love. Double the girlfriends, double the happiness.]

[No. 8: I'm not interested in your private life. Now that the issue with Mibu Tatsuki has been resolved, when will you help me with the experiment?]

Damn, it’s so urgent.

I knew this woman wasn't looking for me to say good morning or good night.

[Well, for this kind of experiment, first tell me your plan and what kind of game you want to run. I have tens of millions of dollars here, which should be enough to attract people to come and play.]

When it comes to games, No. 8 can't stop talking.

I'm very curious about human nature. So the idea behind this game is to test whether humans can maintain cooperation despite the temptation of profit.

I need data from different demographics. In previous virtual games, players were almost always wealthy, and they valued their lives. I'm trying to determine if the wealthy, having sufficient wealth, would cooperate with others. And if the poor, lacking money, would betray others. Your academy has ordinary students and livestock, right? I think that would satisfy my testing needs.

Before he got to the point, Naoki sighed.

[Human nature cannot stand the test. I really don't understand why you would want to design such a game.]

No. 8: The game theory I've been exposed to always assumes people are rational, acting only to maximize their own benefits. But in my last game, I discovered that real people aren't all like that. They can make foolish mistakes, and some, like you, possess a conscience.

Naoki: [So what kind of game do you want to design? ]

[Inspired by the last-in-first-out system in the workplace. A total of 10 players are required to form a company. During each round, players pay a minimum of 50,000 yuan to the dealer as the value of their labor for that month.]

After paying the labor value, the next step is an assessment. Each person can give a speech on stage, expressing the meaning of their existence and the value they created that month. Note that the amount each person paid is not public, meaning players can lie during their speeches. However, the total amount accumulated in each round is public and will be announced after public discussion. The last-place elimination vote will take place immediately after the announcement.

[Voting: After everyone finishes their speech, vote to eliminate the person who ranked last in this round of assessment.]

The remaining players share equally all the labor value accumulated by the company this round.

If there is a tie, no player is eliminated for the round. All labor value is confiscated by the casino. The game continues for five rounds, following the above steps.

After hearing this, Naoki didn't know how to comment for a moment.

[Uh, another game of forming cliques. Your game is equivalent to accumulating the labor value of everyone, then eliminating one person and dividing the money among the remaining people.]

Number 8: That's pretty much it. Since everyone wants to distribute more money, they tend to eliminate the player who contributed the least. However, lies are allowed during speeches, and players need to make judgments. Liars must also guess the total labor value of the round, otherwise their lies will be exposed and they risk elimination.

[Also, players may form groups and compete against each other. Casinos also have the opportunity to make money when players tie.]

Naoki is not short of money, but since she has agreed to what No. 8 does, it doesn’t matter whether the casino makes money or not, as long as it doesn’t lose money, she will just help her.

Naoki: [Okay, okay, let’s try it tomorrow.]

……

So, the next day, Mayari received the game plan given to her by Naoki.

"The casino is introducing a new type of gambling, is this it?"

Meiari quickly scanned the information with the eyes of an expert and commented, "The participation fee is 5 yen per round, so for five rounds that's 25 yen. For the average student, that's about half a month's pocket money. And if you can make it through all five rounds, you'll definitely get more than that."

"Those eliminated in the first round will lose 5. This threshold is neither too low nor too high."

"If this game continues, since the remaining players will definitely make money, it might attract more people to play."

"We're famous now, right? If we post something online, people will probably come and play."

Naoki thought about traffic. Their art club is no longer an unknown casino.

After handing over everything to Mayari, Naoki lay down on the table and fell asleep in a daze.

She has no interest in watching others gamble, nor in making money. As long as she doesn't lose everything, she's fine.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was time to go home from school. Naoki did not go home, but sneaked into Sachiko Jura's dormitory and opened the door with his key.

As soon as she entered the door, Naoki smelled the aroma of curry. She walked to the kitchen excitedly and saw the woman standing tall in front of the stove in the kitchen.

From the kitchen door, I could just see the other person's fair and handsome profile. She took a sip with a spoon, as if tasting the saltiness. She had no expression on her face, but her serious look was very fascinating.

Naoki was surprised when she first learned that Sachiko Juraku could cook. She thought that a young lady with such a personality should have lived a life of having everything provided for her since she was a child.

Just like training livestock to serve you at all times, this kind of thing should never be done by yourself.

It turns out that Naoki, a poor girl, can't cook, but the other party can.

But think about it from another perspective, office workers can only eat instant noodles and fast food because they have to work in a hurry, while rich people have the time and leisure to study cooking.

That makes sense.

For example, Hanatemari Kazuragiri is the same, she likes cooking.

Thinking about it this way, I feel even sadder.

"elder sister."

Naoki cried out softly and moved closer from behind, but he didn't touch her actively so as not to interfere with the operation.

"I'll be right there. Wait on the sofa for a moment."

Sachiko Juraku's voice was gentle, without any hint of jealousy or anger.

Naoki happily rolled onto the sofa and waited for his meal.

How can I not be happy when my girlfriends are all so outstanding, can cook, and have money to treat me to a big meal?

I don’t know what brand of curry powder Jule Xingzi uses, but the curry she cooks is rich and fragrant.

Naoki devoured a bowl of curry chicken rice.

"Really delicious."

After dinner, Naoki snuggled into Sachiko Jura's arms and rubbed against her, actively trying to please her.

Even if you have a bad temper, you won't be angry when you get home and see your pet with a cute face trying to please you.

"I asked you to bring your books and test papers. Did you bring them?"

"Take it, take it."

Today we are going to learn mathematics, and Jule Xingzi has already prepared a notebook full of knowledge points.

Seeing the math notebooks of this grade, Naoki's eyes lit up: "Sister, is this what you used back then?"

Jule Sachiko:……

"The textbooks have been updated, so how can I use my old notes?"

Seeing that the ink on the notebook was still fresh, Naoki had a guess in his mind: could it be newly written?

This is too attentive. Naoki thought he found some knowledge points on the Internet, printed them out for him to study, and then guided him to do the questions.

This is the charm of Forty-five's favorability. Naoki was a little touched. Although he was the one who was trying to win them over, these women were also very attentive to him.

Jule Xingzi took the notebook from the touched Naoki's hand and said with a smile: "If you want the notebook, remember what you promised me last night."

"Oh, sister is so bad, I want to play now."

And it happened on the sofa in the living room, which was too... embarrassing.

But there is no one else anyway.

Naoki was about to take off her clothes when she saw Sachiko Jurakami turn around, take out a deck of cards from the cabinet and look at her in surprise.

"What are you doing? Is it hot?"

Naoki, who was halfway through taking off his coat, stopped awkwardly and fanned himself: "Well, I just finished eating, so it's a bit hot."

What the hell? Playing together isn't what I thought it meant?

This is too embarrassing!

Jule Xingzi wouldn't think that a girl with a mind full of colors would throw herself into his arms.

Seeing that the deck of cards in Sachiko Juraku's hand was the one he had customized for her, Naoki became happy again.

"What do you want to play, poker?"

"Well, if you want to gain knowledge, of course you have to gamble."

Jule Xingzi quickly shuffled the cards, pulled the cards, and placed all the cards face down on the table one by one.

"The rules of the game are simple. You flip the cards and compare the size. This deck of cards was given to me by Naoki, so there's no cheating involved."

"The person who shuffles the cards chooses last. Both players take turns choosing a card to turn over and compare. If the points are the same, they compare the suits. If Naoki wins, I'll teach you a piece of knowledge. If Naoki loses..."

Jule Sachiko smirked and pulled out another stack of cards: "This is the penalty card. If Naoki loses, you need to draw a card and act according to the card."

This woman, Jule Xingzi, has so many things to do even when tutoring herself.

Forget it, I can only play with her.

However, this card comparison has nothing to do with mind reading, so you don't have to worry about Jule Xingzi reading your cards.

Poker cards are custom-made. There is only one deck in the world, and it is impossible to replace the cards or disguise them.

There are a total of fifty-two cards on the table, excluding the jokers.

Therefore, even though Naoki carried a deck of the most common playing cards ready to deal with gambling card changes at any time, it was impossible for him to cheat in this game.

Naoki looked at the full deck of cards on the table. With so many cards, which one should he choose?

Although it appears to be a game of luck, it is not necessarily so. The party shuffling the cards can choose to remember the positions of specific cards.

Jule Xingzi must have made some tricks and hidden the biggest Ace of Spades somewhere.

Naoki looked at Sachiko Juraku, who was sitting on the sofa on the other side and looking at him leisurely with a smile, and tried to use mind reading.

Although she didn't think that her elementary mind reading ability could directly understand the other person...

result……

System: Tip: Since the host's (fake) mind-reading talent is copied from Jule Xingzi, it will automatically become ineffective when facing the opponent.

Naoki:……

What? She was thinking that she could use these women’s talents to deal with them in the future, but in the end, she was restrained by the woman wherever she came from?

The apprentice can never beat the master, right?

Naoki had no choice but to accept the flaws of his copied talent. After all, it was copied without any training, so he didn't feel it was unfair.

I can't understand it, so I can only guess.
