Chapter 61 Dialectical Game (6) Game Model
When Qisi was sixteen years old, probably because of his weird behavior and the fact that having an extra mouth to eat was really troublesome, he took the initiative to invite his uncle to be his guardian. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and sent him to a summer camp.
The summer camp is located in the deep mountains and old forests. It implements militarized management and promotes the doctrine of "absolute fairness and world harmony" all day long. It simply has the word "evil cult" written on its face.
It was at this cult base disguised as a summer camp that Qisi and Jin Yusheng met.
Hundreds of children were imprisoned in dozens of iron houses. The average age was about ten years old. There were only three children who were sixteen years old. Qisi, Jin Yusheng and a little girl were packed and imprisoned in in a room.
The children were only let out during meals and prayers, and were not allowed to whisper or do anything outside the rules.
As for what that "rule" is, Qisi still can't figure it out. He only knows that many children have been dragged out for corporal punishment for violating the "rule".
Those people said that this was also a sacrifice, that everyone was guilty, and that their gods wanted humans to suffer from original sin.
They asked the children to draw triangles of unknown meaning on their chests, perform rituals, and pray to a god whose name they did not even know.
They almost frantically prayed for God's response, and declared that when God comes again, weirdness and mystery will eventually run rampant in the world, shattering all unfair rules and order.
Chiss didn't want to leave. After all, he was unlucky as always wherever he went, but the misfortune he encountered in this summer camp was more pure.
Until... Xiao Taimei’s roommate died inexplicably.
The appearance of her death was very strange. She was obviously lying in the room, but her body suddenly became charred black, and ashes were falling, as if she had encountered an invisible fire.
Chiss watched her scream and die, not feeling much sadness, but keenly smelling a hint of danger from the death of her companions.
He realized that if he encountered the same situation, his probability of survival would be lower than that of the little girl who could push him to the ground and beat him with one hand.
Therefore, he must escape in order to survive and not die in such a place where birds don't shit.
The subsequent memories are blurred due to the brain's protective mechanism. Zeiss only remembers that he gained the trust of those believers through a series of performances and was able to move freely.
He found the right opportunity to set a fire. Considering that the scene was not chaotic enough, he picked the locks of more than a dozen rooms and let the children out to run all over the mountains and plains.
Rescuing Jin Yusheng was just incidental.
He is not worried about being unable to escape. After all, even hundreds of pigs cannot be caught immediately. For the believers, the smartest way is to pack up and leave immediately, lest they Caught by the Sheriff's Department.
What he needs to worry about is his future life. He will definitely not be able to return to his uncle's house, and he will have to find a good host to fool him.
——The reasons for choosing Jin Yusheng are almost the same as those mentioned before.
......
After Jin Yusheng left the observation room, a while later, the nurse came in and untied all the restraints on Qisi's body.
Immediately afterwards, the red light of the surveillance camera on the ceiling went out, apparently being turned off remotely.
There is no doubt that Jin Yusheng made his choice.
Although this guy is still as timid as a mouse, only daring to poke secretly to show his acquiescence, and does not even dare to keep a decent knife, but it is enough for Qiss.
He stood up and stretched his muscles while searching the entire observation room.
I have to say that the sanitation here is very clean, there is not a particle of dust on the ground, let alone sharp objects. When a mouse sees it, he will probably take two peanuts with him.
The walls were pitifully flat, and the surveillance camera constituted the only decoration, and was embedded in the ceiling together with the light tube, eliminating the possibility of Zeiss removing it.
There were no usable tools in the bathroom either. It uses a squat toilet, so naturally there is no removable toilet seat; the faucet cannot be pulled out with the strength of Zeiss, and the acrylic countertop cannot be smashed without hurting oneself. "You really understand me. After knowing that I have obtained the weapon, my first choice will definitely be to operate on you..." Qisi lay back on the bed and murmured to himself with empty eyes.
What he said to Jin Yusheng was half true and half false. Although he was not a normal person with sound outlook on life, he was not a pervert who thought about killing people all day long. There was no reason to kill him. The other person's family, or just because the other person knew too much, they killed him.
But Jin Yusheng still believed him, or in other words, he took the steps he handed over.
A lot of money and energy are invested in a project that has not seen results for a long time. The huge sunk cost makes it difficult to give up. The only way is to persevere almost self-motivated - unless there is a reason to give up.
As a clone, Qisi was happy to give Jin Yusheng a reason to give up his mother's body. After all, the mother's body "Qisi" had indeed deceived Jin Yusheng a lot. According to the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf", he couldn't be discredited enough.
It seems reasonable and logically feasible. Just because you haven’t done it before doesn’t mean you won’t do it in the future.
Anyway, it was the mother body "Zis" who was blamed, so what does his No. 9 clone have to do with it?
“But that’s not right. It’s not difficult to convince Jin Yusheng to acquiesce in the clones killing the mother, and this idea is very clear, almost the only choice. If the first eight clones all have mine Memory, it is impossible not to think of doing this..."
Qisi raised his finger and tapped his chin, his eyes narrowed: "They were all destroyed. It seems that they failed. Why did they fail? What other important details have I overlooked? ”
There is too little information, just enough to initially build the simplest game model.
It is known that there are eight seniors who failed before him. The worst case scenario is that the routines used by the seniors are different, none of them are feasible, and their trump cards are revealed in a mess.
If he wants to break the game, he must come up with a ninth plan, and this is without knowing what the first eight plans are.
Chis believes that as a selfish person, he will not leave a way out for his descendants. I believe the same is true for the first eight clones. Then, they will definitely choose the option with the highest success rate.
In other words, if he wants to come up with a surprise now, he can only choose the plan with the ninth success rate.
But there aren't many plans out there, and the success rate of the ninth-ranked plan must be appallingly low. It's better to re-implement the old plan and see if you can get lucky.
I believe that the previous seniors would also think so, and after calculating the equilibrium point, they would give up the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth plans and instead repeat the first few plans.
All individuals are rational people, so No. 5 must repeat the No. 1 plan with the highest success rate. The success rate of Plan No. 1 is further reduced after it has been executed twice. No. 6 can only choose Plan No. 2, and so on...
As No. 9, Zis faces plans that have been executed twice. Of the first four plans, the best choice will be Plan No. 5, which has never been implemented and has a satisfactory success rate.
But life is full of surprises, and it is impossible to be sure that all clones can deduce the above information.
Once a key information point is removed, the entire game model will be disrupted. Then, clones No. 5 to 8 can choose any plan, and the possibility of the first eight plans being executed cannot be ruled out.
As "Number 9", Qisi has only two options, either to choose one of the first eight plans and leave the result to fate; or in desperation, the choice will have a high probability of failure. Plan 9.
No matter what choice you make, it is irrational. It can be said that this problem is naturally unsolvable for "No. 9".
Two sentences echoed in my memory:
‘Your previous predecessors did not have this request. ’
‘The results of the intelligence test are higher than those of the previous clones. '
An electric spark flashed in his mind, and Zis smiled happily: "This is never a balanced game, I just need to choose the best solution I can think of."
In Jin Yusheng’s words, the hint was already very clear.
New factors are introduced into the game model. "No. 9" Zis is better than the previous eight clones. It is simplified into a game problem, that is, "can come up with a better plan."
His probability of success is naturally higher than that of the first eight unlucky seniors.
