No. 369.
Although Zhu Shijiu didn't know who he was or what abilities he had, this didn't stop him from being amazed at the quick reaction of No. 369.
The incident happened suddenly.
If No. 369 was the real candidate and had no collusion with the examiner or the thief, then his reaction would have been quick. He directly proposed two possibilities to force everyone present to make a choice.
"No. 369's response speed is really fast."
Luo Suyi couldn't help but grumble.
After listening to what No. 369 said, she began to think subconsciously. If this was really a plot arranged by the examiner to observe everyone's comprehensive abilities, then should they find out the thief hidden among the candidates in order to improve the overall score
But if this was not arranged by the examiner, but there really was a thief among the candidates, would this thief steal from you

"I advise you to do the same as me and hide your number plate somewhere private. The more important the place you hide it in, the more difficult it will be for thieves to steal it."
Fu Sidu said calmly.
"Please note that when the number plates were stolen, all the candidates who hid their number plates subconsciously touched the location where the number plates were hidden. If there were real thieves among the candidates, then we would have told the thieves where our number plates were hidden."
"Yes." Luo Suyi nodded, but was not prepared to change the position of the number plate.
Zhu Shijiu didn't move either.
Seeing that the two of them looked like they agreed but they just wouldn't do it, Fu Sidu couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows: "I think what I said is quite reasonable. Do you have any better suggestions?"
Luo Suyi smiled and said, "People sleep because they want to relax their brains, but for someone like me with hyperthymesia, my brain is always working. I have long developed the ability to stay awake for a long time."
"Of course, this doesn't mean I can stay awake forever, but I can last longer than the average person. Theoretically, I can last until my brain spontaneously blacks out. It's only three days, I can handle it."
Zhu Shijiu and Fu Si were both stunned.
"Isn't your life painful like this?"

Luo Suyi said calmly: "Of course it's painful, but I'm used to it."
Her super memory makes her never forget anything she has come into contact with. Even if the content is meaningless, it will be stored in her brain and recalled at any time as if it just happened. How many things does a person come into contact with in his life? The huge amount of memory makes Luo Suyi's brain never get any real sleep.
Zhu Shijiu used to think that hyperthymesia was a good thing, but now it seems that it may be more of a torture.
Fu Sidu looked at Luo Suyi sympathetically, then looked at Zhu Shijiu: "Why don't you hide the number plate somewhere else?"
Zhu Shijiu replied: "Because when we think from the perspective of a thief, the problem of theft has actually been solved."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"The three of us are a group, while most of the other candidates are fighting alone. If a thief wants to strike, will he choose a lone candidate or a candidate in a small group?"
Zhu Shijiu looked at Luo Suyi and said, "I don't think you need to stay awake for three days. We just need to take turns sleeping, and thieves will be deterred. The theft problem will be solved on its own."
"That makes sense." Fu Sidu had to admit that Zhu Shijiu's words directly solved the problem of theft.
They don't need to change the location where the number plate is hidden, they just need to be on guard against possible thieves.
“But there’s a problem here.”
If she could sleep peacefully, Luo Suyi would naturally want to sleep.
But she looked at Fu Sidu suspiciously: "I have been watching Lao Zhu since he entered the square. He has no chance to contact candidate No. 369, so he is ruled out as a suspect. But you are not always in my sight. Even if I have hyperthymesia, I can't be sure whether you have contact with candidate No. 369. How can we determine that you are not a thief?"
Fu Sidu seemed to have thought about this question a long time ago. He answered calmly: "No need to conclude."
Luo Suyi was about to ask why, but Zhu Shijiu spoke first.
"Indeed, there is no need to doubt each other. You doubt Lao Fu, but Lao Fu also doubts you. In fact, in my opinion, you are more suspicious than Lao Fu. After all, you accurately said the number plate number 369."
Luo Suyi was stunned.
Fu Sidu pushed his glasses up: "We can't prove or disprove your hyperthymesia, so..."
Luo Suyi rolled her eyes: "After all this time, you guys don't believe me."
Zhu Shijiu smiled and shook his head: "None of us three can confirm whether what we said before is true or false, but at least one thing is certain, that is, if one of us three got his number plate stolen while someone was on guard all night, then that person must be the thief."

At this point, Luo Suyi understood.
To be honest, it is true. Even if Mr. Fu is a thief, he would not be stupid enough to expose himself to this extent.
If there were a large number of people, perhaps the guards who stayed up all night could cover up the theft of the number plate by using the number of eyes to attract more people, but their small group only had three people. If the number plate was really stolen, then it would basically be determined that someone was a suspect.
At this time, Luo Suyi seemed to admire Zhu Shijiu for figuring out the logic so quickly.
The logic is not complicated and any ordinary person with normal IQ can think of it, but not many people can react so quickly.
However, Zhu Shijiu felt that this was not enough, so he continued, "If you want to be safer, I have a simpler way to take turns keeping watch."
"What?"
Zhu Shijiu smiled and said, "I can also stay awake for three days. I will be in charge of the night watch tonight, tomorrow night, and the night after tomorrow. Anyway, I am 100% not a suspect, right?"
Indeed, this can be said to be the simplest and most effective method.
As soon as No. 666 Zhu Shijiu entered the square, he attracted the attention of a large number of candidates. Luo Suyi and Fu Sidu knew that Zhu Shijiu had never contacted No. 369, so Zhu Shijiu was not suspected.

"… No, you are really not a suspect?"
Fu Sidu suddenly smiled bitterly.
"What if you are someone arranged by the examiner like the candidate whose number plate was stolen?"
Zhu Shijiu was stunned.
Luo Suyi also nodded, and thoughtfully overturned her previous idea that Zhu Shijiu was not a suspect.
"That's right. You are actually a suspect as well. We are still not sure whether you are the person assigned by the examiner. Maybe your purpose is to test our abilities. If you are the person assigned by the examiner, even if you don't communicate with No. 369, you can probably cooperate with No. 369."
"Speaking of which, Old Zhu, you are still a big suspect. After all, we all saw it. The scene of you chatting with the contact person is still vivid in our minds. Maybe you are really someone arranged by the examiner."
For Luo Suyi, who suffers from hyperthymesia, isn’t it all vivid in her mind
Zhu Shijiu: “…”
I see.
Once suspicion is formed, it is difficult to break.
This is especially true for intelligent people, who doubt every possibility that is worthy of doubt.
"What if we coordinate the night watches, letting one of us sleep while the other two keep an eye on each other?"
Fu Sidu shook his head and sighed: "The problem is, I can't be sure whether you two are in the same group."
Luo Suyi also sighed.
Zhu Shijiu was speechless.
What the hell is this? Originally, the three of them were discussing to come up with a way to crack the thief, but they didn't expect that the more they thought about it, the more suspicious they became. The doubts in their hearts made it impossible for the three of them to completely trust each other.
There aren't so many things to do.
"I don't care what you think. If you want to stay up late, stay up late. I don't care. I will sleep when I need to."
Zhu Shijiu kept shaking his head.

"I believe that you two are not in the same group, and the fact that you two are on guard at the same time also eliminates the possibility that one of you steals my number plate. The only way to end suspicion is to trust, isn't it?"
Zhu Shijiu's trust in the two of them was based on the fact that he could go back to the game at any time.
When he was captured by the black soldiers and unable to retreat, he realized that he must have the means to retreat at any time.
So after learning from his mistakes, he trained on the boat for a long time, focusing on training his finger strength.
After going through various one-finger handstand push-ups, he has now achieved the ability to push back without any equipment - he can tear off most of his neck with his bare hands, and no amount of advanced medical treatment can save him.
So even if his number plate was really stolen, he could go back immediately and figure out what happened.
Luo Suyi and Fu Sidu were still hesitant.
They were very touched that Zhu Shijiu was willing to believe them, but it was really not easy for them to believe Zhu Shijiu in return.
Luo Suyi shook her head: "I choose to stay up late. It's only three days. I can endure it."
Mr. Fu was very tired.
Zhu Shijiu chose to sleep. Luo Suyi, who had hyperthymesia, could stay up longer than ordinary people. He could probably make it through three days, but what about him? He was a normal person, an ordinary person!
In other words, the disadvantage is mine
…
Once suspicion is formed, it is difficult to break.
The candidate whose number plate was stolen shouted loudly in the square, but was embarrassed to find that no one was willing to pay attention to him.
Everyone is smart, but the smarter they are, the more suspicious they are. In this emergency, they are all wondering whether they should help the candidate find the real thief.
In the end, most people chose to remain silent.
Wait and see.
If the thief had only stolen a number plate, they could all have pretended not to notice.
But as the saying goes, if there are enough of them, there will always be a few weird ones.
Discussion group 563743675
One of the candidates suddenly stood up and said righteously: "Brother, I am willing to help you find the thief!"
No. 369 was stunned. He had originally given up hope, but suddenly someone showed up willing to help him. He nodded quickly as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Okay! What are you going to do? I'll cooperate with you!"
