Chapter 143 - 143: 143: Changing Strategies<div>


    Trantor: 549690339


    After a round of voting, the atmosphere became much heavier.


    The man at position 1 was no longer nonmittal and pondered very seriously before providing a description:<div>


    “Young people like to eat.”


    He mentioned “eating” again, so the word from number 1 must be some type of food. Considering he voted for the yer in position 10 in thest round, it should be some kind of cheap food.


    Combining the characteristics he said: a bit sticky, changes shape, favored by young people, Bai Youwei was almost certain the word was chewing gum.


    So, the word that Shen MO got must be very simr, yet quite different from “chewing gum”.


    The answer was on the tip of her tongue.


    Bai Youwei felt more confident and rxed.


    “Number 3, please describe your term,” the Inspector said.


    She nced at the Inspector, realizing she might be able to change her strategy. After thinking for a moment, she said:


    “I wasn’t going to say this, but it seems some people here still haven’t fully understood how to y the game…”


    Everyone was looking at her.


    Bai Youwei hooked the corner of her mouth, and continued, “This game is not about testing yournguage skill. Everyone, don’t forget, there are ghosts in this game. If the two ghosts guess our term, and manage to survive until the end, have you considered the consequences?”<div>


    The Inspector said, the game ends when only yers with the same terms are left.


    But what if thest people left were all ghosts? Although the probability was low, it was indeed possible.


    Everyone reacted and simultaneously turned towards the Inspector.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    The Inspector nced at Bai Youwei, then politely exined to everyone: “If one ghost survives until the end, they can form an alliance with any team, but if both ghosts survive, it means there are no allies here and the party can’t proceed.”


    “What do you mean?” asked the middle-aged woman at spot 8 nervously, “What does ‘unable to proceed’ mean?”


    Inspector: “It means, the party is cancelled, everyone is eliminated, and the ghosts win and leave the game. Do you understand now?”


    Everyone was immediately nervous, their eyes darting back and forth as they tried to find the ghost hiding among them!


    The goal was achieved, Bai Youwei was satisfied.


    She spoke again: “Do you get it now? We should deal with the ghosts first! The longer we dy, the more information the ghosts get, and they might guess the terms and hide among us! I suggest in this round, we first eliminate the suspected ghost. After all, those eliminated won’t be our own teammates, so I’m sure no one will object, right?”


    Herst sentence put down an ultimatum—anyone who objected to her was a ghost.


    Sure enough, although everyone looked doubtful, no one objected in the end.<div>


    The middle-aged woman at position 8 directly asked her, “Who do you think is the ghost?”


    Bai Youwei replied, “In the previous round, my description was that ‘it can be bought at many supermarkets’. Then, Number 6 said ‘he asionally buys it from the supermarket’, which was a meaningless statement. It was as if he was copying my words, so now I suspect Number 6 is a ghost.”


    Number 6 defended hurriedly, “I’m not!”


    Bai Youwei pretended not to hear and continued, “Also, Number 4 said ‘it’s stic’, Number 7 said ‘it’s a bit sticky’, then Number 9 said ‘it can change shape’. This statement seems to be thebination of the former two. Thus, I also suspect Number 9.”


    Number 9 became indignant all of a sudden, “Stop it! If you can’t analyze, shut up! No one wants to listen to your nonsense!”


    Wu Lili at position 7 looked around and whispered, “I don’t think Number 9 is a ghost…”


    “What’s the rush?” Bai Youwei smiled with a cocky grin, “Isn’t it normal to be suspected when you don’t describe properly? Just describe better in this round and clear your name, isn’t that easy?”
