Chapter 778: Both ends of the nightmare

"Details determine the reality of the world." - Card chess player.

"What is truth? What is falsehood?" - Playwright.

"Let's see who can tell the difference." - The Master.

The man dressed as a doctor held a pen and paper, looked at Wu Hui and asked: "Are you okay? Do you need to take a rest?"

Wu Hui was about to observe again, but he heard himself suddenly open his mouth: "Um, what were we talking about just now?"

This voice...and my body...don't seem to be my own. But the tone is a bit like Du Ziming. What's the setting?

"You mentioned just now that Wu Hui and Du Ziming participated in the final round of the intelligence championship. What happened next?" the doctor asked.

"I, I don't remember..." Wu Hui hadn't moved yet, but his body was already showing a headache. He seemed to be able to control his body, but it would be better to watch him perform on his own now.

Now that he is more and more certain that it is Du Ziming who is currently controlling his body, he has two options. One is to actively communicate with him, or to stay on the sidelines. Hiding in the dark may be an advantage.

The setting of this game is that the two of us are squeezed into the body of the same mental patient?

Du Ziming's ability to talk and act is superb, and he quickly extracted basic information from the doctor. According to the setting, their name is Wu Ziming, who has split personality and paranoia. He is also a world-famous mathematician and mathematician.

Sociology, philosopher.

Well... everyone is used to this kind of people going crazy. Everyone doesn't think there is any problem with this.

It should be said that thanks to many literary and artistic creators who like to write about the fine line between genius and madness. Thanks also to Nietzsche who went crazy, and Hemingway who was clearly being followed but was mistaken for persecutory delusion.

According to the information extracted from the doctor, Wu Ziming is a person who often falls into fantasy. He thinks that he is a player in another world. He participates in the devil's game in exchange for various rewards, and there are two personalities, Wu Hui and Du Ziming. These two people

They often compete against each other. And because of Wu Ziming's strong imagination and thinking ability, he can simulate an entire game in his mind without the need for other gambling games.

Wu Hui just listened and observed quietly throughout the whole process without making a sound.

But his eyes collected quite a lot of information.

Communicating with doctors is obviously a daily routine for a mental patient. If you are rich, you can talk every day. If you are poor, you may only see a doctor every two or three days or even once a week.

So Wu Ziming quickly returned to his solitary ward. He was not a violent mental illness, and he would not hurt himself. So there were many daily necessities in the room, as well as chalk, blackboards and a lot of scratch paper.

It seems that even after being admitted to a mental hospital, many people hope that this great mathematician and philosopher can produce some more results.

"Did you observe anything?" Wu Ziming asked in his room.

It was Du Ziming asking Wu Hui.

"Well, not yet." Wu Hui said: "But it seems that this is the setting of this game. We are trapped in the same body, playing two personalities, so we still need to cooperate for the time being."

"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble in a hurry." Du Ziming smiled: "Then prepare to escape from prison!"

Wu Hui: "It's best not to."

Because the risk of jailbreaking is really unknown, and if active jailbreaking and harming others occur, their current monitoring measures will be significantly stricter.

And jailbreaking doesn't seem to help their situation at all.

As soon as the two had a disagreement, they suddenly noticed that the surrounding hospitals were disappearing. Wu Hui said that this game was somewhat of a stream of consciousness.

"Hello two, let's meet again." The host suddenly turned on the lights in a pure black space. Du Ziming and Wu Hui stood on his left and right sides: "You just had some differences. You come here to compete. The winner can

Gain full body control for a day.”

"You need to bet your own chips on the confusion value. The current confusion value is one point for Wu Hui and two points for Du Ziming. The higher the confusion value, the closer you will be to the truth. The method of obtaining the confusion value is temporarily kept secret."

"Any more questions about the rules?"

Wu Hui looked at his body, dressed in hospital clothes, and then at Du Ziming: "No problem."

"It's no problem for me either." Du Ziming said.

"Then I will announce the method of betting. Whenever you have differences, you will come to this space. But you will not remember what happened in this space." The host continued: "The betting begins."

"There are ten grids here, numbered 1 to 10 respectively. Every time you place a confusion value, you can choose a mark in the grid."

"Only you know your mark. After the mark is completed, take turns to choose a grid to poke. Whoever marks the grid first will be deemed a failure. If there is a tie, both of them will get a point of confusion value."

A very simple, luck-based game.

Wu Hui asked: "Do we rely on this method every time we decide the outcome?"

Host: "No, it's a random game every time."

"Okay, let's get started." Wu Hui said.

He knew that he was at a disadvantage in this game because he didn't know why he only had one confusion point, but Du Ziming had two points. And having more chips is equivalent to two chances in this simple game.

This is a probability question that can be tested on the test paper. Generally speaking, it can be roughly understood that Du Ziming's winning rate is twice that of Wu Hui.

Of course, this is not part of psychological warfare.

If there was psychological warfare, Wu Hui would probably be even more incapable of playing Du Ziming. That's why he asked if it would be the same bet from now on. Fortunately, it wasn't.

The confused value as a bargaining chip doesn't look like a good thing.

Du Ziming smiled and said let's get started.

Wu Hui chose number seven, and then won the coin guessing game with Du Ziming, taking the lead.

It's a good thing to go first. If you're lucky, you have an 8/45 chance of guessing it right. If you guess it right, the two of you will be on the same starting line.

But Wu Hui obviously didn't have that luck.

He started guessing from 5 and guessed wrong.

It was Du Ziming's turn and he directly broke 10, which was also a mistake.

Now the actual probability of winning will be much greater. In addition, the probability of two people choosing the same square (1/5) must also be considered. In that case, there may be a draw.

With eight boxes left, Wu Hui tapped the temples of his glasses and chose number three.

His guess was purely random, and he would definitely lose if he played psychological warfare with Du Ziming. Ignoring him, complete randomness had the highest winning rate.

Still missed. Du Ziming guessed 9, but also missed.

There are 124678 left. Wu Hui definitely can't guess his own, so he has a 4/15 probability of guessing correctly. Of course, if he guesses one Du Ziming, there will be another one. And he loses as long as he is guessed once.

If Du Ziming guessed in order, it would take two rounds to guess him. So Wu Hui guessed...No. 1.

bingo.

But it was meaningless because Du Ziming immediately chose No. 7. Wu Hui lost the game.
Chapter completed!
