Six ten in the morning.
There is still one hour and fifty minutes to the final critical moment.
The 24 hours that was originally thought to be extremely long has now definitely entered the countdown.
On the scene, there are nineteen cards, a total of nineteen points, and seven people.
With the passage of time every minute, the final critical moment is about to come...
The idiot sat in front of the fireplace, just like everyone else, sitting blankly.
Quirine squeezed the remaining two cards in her hand and swallowed, not knowing what to do. Looking at the others, except for Ken, who seemed completely unaware of the situation, was still drinking chocolate milk tea, almost none of them had smiled. Everyone sits in the living room blankly. Look at me and I look at you. They don’t know what to do.
Tick...tick...tick...
The snowstorm outside seemed to have stopped.
The golden sunlight passed through the clouds and came in through the window.
However, the golden sunlight did not seem to bring any hope, but rather a kind of irony.
It seems that even the sun is also interested in the darkness that is still pervading here, and started eating snacks, sitting slowly in front of the window, quietly waiting for the last scene that will happen here.
when------
The bell rang at half past six.
When she heard the bell, Quilin couldn't help but tremble all over, maybe she was frightened, she jumped up suddenly, and everyone around her couldn't help but watch her with this jump.
"Little...husband, time is almost up, right? There's still an hour and a half...do you want all of us to cut off one of our fingers immediately?"
The idiot glanced at her and motioned her to sit down again. But now Quirine can hardly calm down. She pinched her finger with the ring, feeling a little excited. After gritting her teeth, she suddenly turned her head, glanced at other people, and walked directly to Alice who had two cards in her hand...
"Alice, I want..."
"Stop. Come back."
Quilin was taken aback and turned to look at the idiot. She heard the voice of an idiot, but as the time was getting closer and closer, she finally gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and was about to press her ring...
"I told you to stop and come back"
Suddenly, the idiot roared out. This loud roar also made Alice's already flustered expression scream back abruptly.
Quirine turned her head and looked at the idiot. Perhaps because of worry, perhaps because of fear, the expression on her face has slowly become depressed. Tears began to gather in the eye sockets.
"What should I do... what should we do? I don't want to die yet... I haven't even talked about a decent relationship yet... idiot... what should I do... you Tell me, what on earth should I do? Uuuuu..."
The idiot shook his head, walked over, and pulled Quilin, who was about to cry, to comfort her and sit down beside him. After waiting for a while to stabilize her mood a little, the idiot stroked her back, turned her head, and looked at everyone around her.
"Go on like this...I can't do it."
After a long silence, Richard over there stood up at this moment. He exhaled and said--
"We can't go on like this. If we wait any longer, we will all be wiped out, or one of us will break a finger."
"So, I have such a proposal now, I don't know what everyone thinks."
When everyone around him turned his attention to him, the fat man patted his chest and said--
"Now, we have a total of nineteen points in our hand, so we have nineteen cards...no, wrong, twenty one."
Having said this, Richard's eyes glared fiercely at Idiot and Quilin, and the meaning was naturally obvious.
"After several previous confrontations, I believe that you all have some understanding of the poker in the hands of your opponents and opponents? And the reason why we are in a stalemate now is because the fewer cards, the easier it is to guess the cards in our hands. Come out. In this way, once you launch an attack, you are more likely to be attacked."
"Our mutual calculations left us stuck in a stalemate, unable to attack, and only defensively. If this continues, I think we will be caught in the trap of the owner of the villa. We will fight to the last minute, and then stand in a stalemate. I hope other people can't bear it first. At the last second, all of us will either be blown up or cut off a finger because of despair."
"I believe that such a result is something no one of us wants to see. Therefore, I am here to propose a tactic that allows us to start attacking each other again."
Richard took out his two cards from his arms and threw them on the table.
"We handed over all the cards in our hands, and after we shuffled them, we redistributed them to everyone. Moreover, due to the cheating of someone among us, we got two more cards. But it doesn't matter, this is actually a good thing. After distributing the poker, we cover up the remaining two cards. In this way, we can't be sure who has what cards in his hand. And we can't calculate it. How about giving everything to fate? "
Ken Yin squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then smiled: "That's it, that's it. It's really a good way. Okay, I'm going to participate."
After speaking, Ken threw the card in his hand onto the table.
"Then if this is the case, I will come too. Instead of remaining in a stalemate like this, I might as well leave everything to fate."
Alice also agreed, and threw the three cards in her hand. Now that the three people agreed, Rongte also agreed and put down the cards in his hand. Later, Li also left the chessboard, took out the five cards in his hand and put them down. In the end, everyone's eyes were on Idiot and Quilin.
"How? What do you two mean?"
Alice asked.
At this point, Idiot and Quilin could not let themselves become more isolated. After Quirin got an idiot's nod, the two finally put down all the cards in their hands.
A total of seventeen poker cards.
Richard exhaled and began to organize the cards. But at this moment, Alice suddenly stretched out her hand and stopped--
"Wait a moment, you made the proposal. Then we should sort out the cards accordingly? Otherwise, who can guarantee that you won't cheat here?"
"Cheating? What's the joke? How can I cheat in this situation?"
Richard roared angrily.
"Huh, who knows? Maybe you have some kind of plan that I can't even imagine."
Richard said nothing but Alice. After a moment of silence, he finally gritted his teeth and retracted his hand—
"Well, if you come to sort it out, you come to sort it out. I'm afraid you won't make it?"
Alice smiled slightly, and finally gathered all these cards in her hand and started to sort out the cards quickly. Her techniques are dazzling and dizzying. Soon, she cut the cards and began to prepare for distribution.
"Hold on."
At this moment, the idiot spoke suddenly. She pushed away the cards that Alice was about to distribute, stared at her hand, and slowly said--
"Richard proposes that you are responsible for shuffling the cards. So, you shouldn't do the work of card splitting, right?"
As soon as this sentence was uttered, the expression on Alice's face immediately cramped. After seeing this scene, the Li next to him couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"You...you are responsible for splitting the cards? In this case...this way...by the way, of course you should not be responsible for such an important matter as the splitting of cards. Now there are 21 cards. We should choose three people, respectively. Take a point, and then split the cards between each other... Lee, Mr. Ken, you are also participants in the game, what do you think?"
Ken nodded: "It makes sense."
Li didn't say a word, and reached out to Alice. Alice saw it, and happily distributed the fourteen cards to the two of them, and then put the remaining seven cards into the hands of the idiot.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that at the last moment, I would be so excited even after a card is dealt? By the way, Mrs. Lyon and Mr. Ronte are not assigned to work. Do you have no opinion?"
Rongte shook his hand and said he had no opinion. As long as the idiot has a card in her hand, Quilin has no objection.
"In that case, let's start."
Idiot, Lee and Ken started to distribute the cards in their hands according to the previous number of people.
Ken Yin one.
Wonte, Richard, and Quilin each have two cards.
Three Alice.
Idiot and Li each have five.
In the end, Idiot and Li each had one card left in their hands, and they clamped the two cards with tongs and put them into the fireplace. After a snap, the two returned again and sat down.
"Well, now... the cards in our hand are all shuffled. We can no longer judge our hands based on our previous guesses and guesses. The time now...the last 75 minutes are left. Now, Who will start first?"
The idiot touched his card, but didn't look at it. He stuffed these cards into his pocket, and then still sat on the sofa aside.
Quirine glanced at the two cards in her hand and said, "Idiot you... don't you look at the cards?"
Now, she was so nervous that she forgot to call an idiot husband.
The rest of the people also looked at the idiot one after another, keeping a wait-and-see for him not looking at the cards.
"I do not need."
The idiot still didn't mean to look at the cards, he just shook his head slightly, and then took Quilin to the side.
"Do you know that there are still those suits on the cards."
After thinking about it for a while, Quirin calculated it, and said, "That's it... Now there are 21 cards... What's left is..." V
