Chapter 195: The test is over! Should we be so cautious

Views:

After hearing what Zhu Shijiu said, the examiner was shocked.

Seeing that the examiner did not stop him, Zhu Shijiu continued to build the stone house.

After Zhu Shijiu finished building it, the examiner said, "You don't have to put in so much effort. Because I can tell you directly that your current performance is quite good and is enough to pass the test."

Zhu Shijiu replied: "I know."

"Then why are you helping those examinees build stone houses? And why are you using me to increase your prestige?"

Zhu Shijiu did not answer for his kindness, but looked at the examiner and asked: "What will happen to those candidates after they are eliminated?"

"I said this before the test started, they would be sent back."

Zhu Shijiu asked the most crucial question: "How are they going to get back?"

This is an island in the Pacific Ocean, unknown kilometers away from the mainland. The candidates went through untold hardships to get here by boat. Some of the candidates' boats were damaged by sharks, and some even swam here.

This time the examiner did not give a direct answer, but said meaningfully: "It depends on whether they are willing to stay."

Zhu Shijiu did not waver after hearing this, and steadily helped the examiner to build the last brick of the stone house.

The examiner's answer only served to satisfy his curiosity, but he would not choose to believe the examiner's words 100%.

Ever since he was deceived by Xue An's seemingly harmless and somewhat ridiculous superficial actions, it was difficult for him to trust other people again.

Even if the examiner gave him an answer now, "We will arrange a ship to send them back," Zhu Shijiu would not choose to believe it.

After helping the examiner build the stone house, he asked for the number plate back from Luo Suyi and returned to his own stone house.

He didn't know whether his early resolution of the traitor and the heavy rain would make the test more difficult, or what problems would arise in the following days. In short, he decided to fight back.

The heavy rain never stopped after it started, and the intensity of the rain did not even slow down at all.

While the storm continued, Zhu Shijiu would knock on the stone houses from time to time to check if the candidates had any health problems, especially those who had suffered from hypothermia last week.

Fortunately, he acted early in this round. Although the candidates were tired and hungry, at least they were able to give a vigilant response after being disturbed by Zhu Shijiu, indicating that they were still alive.

Until the third morning.

The rain has stopped.

The candidates came out of the stone house one by one and sat listlessly on the wet ground, basking in the sun and waiting for the test to end.

Time passes by every second.

No one complained or made a fuss because they were so hungry that their heads were spinning.

Until noon.

"It's twelve o'clock! The test is over!"

One candidate looked at his watch and shouted to the examiner.

The examiner glanced at the candidates, then stood up and left the square.

The candidates looked at each other in bewilderment. What did this mean? Was it to ask them to catch up

At this point, most of the candidates have lost the ability to think deeply.

The time has indeed reached twelve noon. The test time was from noon three days ago to noon today, which should be 72 hours. The test should be over.

Some candidates were so hungry that they could not bear it anymore and wanted to leave the square.

"Wait! Wait a minute!"

Zhu Shijiu blocked the exit of the square and stopped other candidates.

The blocked candidate stopped and was shocked: "Is this another trap set by the examiner?"

All the candidates stared at Zhu Shijiu.

Zhu Shijiu touched his hungry stomach and said only one word.

-"jet lag."

In an instant, the candidates reacted and they suddenly realized!

Damn the examiner, he actually laid this trap at the last minute! If they had foolishly followed it, they would have been in trouble.

This is an unknown island in the Pacific Ocean.

There must be a difference in longitude from where everyone started, so there must be a time difference. When the test started, all the candidates were paying attention to the examiner's speech, so those who wore watches did not pay attention to the time. The examiner's 12 noon must be based on local time.

All the candidates broke out in cold sweats!

It's such a simple problem, but they only noticed it now!

Then the candidates looked at Zhu Shijiu. He was able to muster up the willpower to realize this at the last moment. What a terrifying concentration and willpower!

What they didn't know was that Zhu Shijiu was able to notice this, first of all because his physique was much better than that of ordinary people. So now while the other candidates were tired and hungry, he was not at all weak. Although his brain activity level had decreased, he was still able to maintain a high level of concentration.

Secondly, it is because he has the ability to go back to the time zone - and his ability to go back to the time zone is actually based on the capital time!

That’s right, he confirmed this problem only after experiencing a rollback during this test!

The inertia of human thinking is powerful. Zhu Shijiu has never been abroad in his life, so although he knows that there is a time difference in longitude, he still habitually ignores the time difference problem.

He didn't know where the island was located in the Pacific Ocean, and he didn't have a watch or mobile phone with him to tell time. He couldn't judge the exact time after he went back, but after he went back, subjectively speaking, he always felt that he had gone back earlier.

For example, during the first rollback in the test, he returned to the time when he first landed on the island and entered the square.

The test started at twelve o'clock sharp. If he were to go back in time according to his longitude, he should have returned to ten o'clock.

He did not notice anything unusual at the time, but later on, subjectively, he felt that the two-hour wait was a bit long.

The subsequent rollback is clearer.

Because he couldn't judge the time, in order to ensure that the rollback point would not be updated, he memorized the faces of the traitors and chose to roll back without wasting any time.

Then the time he returned made him realize something was wrong.

Subjectively speaking, he felt that it was still early to go back.

He finally realized the problem.

In other words, the time on Elephantsong Island is several hours later than the time in the capital!

Why is the time of his return tied to the capital time? Is it because the first time he died was at 10 a.m. capital time

Zhu Shijiu didn't know the answer to this question. But he only considered such a simple time difference problem now, and he felt a little scared.

To put it simply, when it is midnight in the capital, the time on Elephantsong Island may only be eight or nine in the evening!

If he hadn't noticed this, he would definitely have stumbled upon this problem later. Take this test for example. If he had delayed a little longer before going back to the original file, he would probably have only been able to go back to the morning when heavy rain had already started all night, instead of before the heavy rain.

And precisely because he noticed the jet lag, he stopped the hungry candidates who wanted to follow the examiner and leave.

He looked at the candidate wearing a watch and asked, "Where are you from? Is the time on your watch the capital time?"

The candidate has an Asian face.

The examinee nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the time on my watch is the capital time!"

Zhu Shijiu said: "Let's wait a little longer. To be on the safe side, we'd better wait another three hours."

"Why three hours?" one candidate asked, "We are not sure where the island is located in the Pacific Ocean. We don't even know its longitude, and we can't calculate the exact time difference. Is three hours enough?"

Because I have played back a lot, this is the judgment of my personal biological clock.

—Of course Zhu Shijiu couldn’t answer like that.

He said: "Thinking back on your journey and your means of transportation, you can estimate the approximate longitude difference from the land."

The candidates really started thinking about it.

In the end, everyone unanimously decided to wait another three hours!

After another three hours of agony, all the candidates looked at Zhu Shijiu.

The desire to leave the square was clearly visible in everyone's eyes.

Zhu Shijiu nodded.

The candidates stood up immediately and walked towards the exit of the square impatiently.

However, at this moment, Zhu Shijiu was suddenly shocked again!

"Wait! Wait a minute!"

Candidates: “What’s going on?”

"I thought about it carefully. Is the time on that watch really accurate?"

Everyone looked at the candidate holding the watch.

Zhu Shijiu said suspiciously: "You may also be a traitor. Are you deliberately misleading us?"

The candidates were so nervous that they were about to burst into tears.

But they still looked at the candidate.

"Me? A traitor?" The candidate himself was stunned.

"Thinking about it carefully, I'm not sure I've found all the traitors." Zhu Shijiu said seriously, "I suggest we wait another hour."

The candidate said madly: "But I'm really not a traitor! I swear! If I were a traitor..."

Zhu Shijiu said suspiciously: "Tell me, 'Chinese people don't cheat Chinese people.'"

Candidate: “…Chinese people don’t cheat Chinese people.”

Zhu Shijiu continued to doubt: "Are you sure you are Chinese?"

Everyone: "…"

Damn it, do you have to be so cautious
