Sick beauty loses horse in thriller game

Chapter 611 No Survivors 7
Unexpectedly, after Chi Qiuping finished saying this, Jiang Lai actually praised her, "You did a great job!"

Chi Qiuping: ???

Why did she get praised by Jiang Lai after she exposed her timidity?
Moreover, she could hear that Jiang Lai's tone was sincere when he praised her.

Not only that.

Jiang Lai also showed a look of relief.

"Those fish are the key to your escape. Fortunately, you did not panic and be controlled by the negative state to feed those fish to the piranhas, otherwise you might not be able to get out." Jiang Lai said.

Seeing her expression become relaxed, Chi Qiuping subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is...is that so?" she asked in a low voice.

Jiang Lai nodded and said to her, "Don't be impatient. Slowly count the fish in the bucket. Are there forty-five in total?"

"Don't be in a hurry when counting the fish. You can treat it as a game to train your eyesight and observation. Just drink a drink and count slowly." Jiang Lai comforted him.

She knew that at this moment, if she couldn't try to calm Chi Qiuping down, her situation might get worse once she started counting the fish swimming in the water, which would be even more detrimental to the next action.

The fish were swimming in the water and it was not easy to count them.

After Chi Qiuping calmed down, her IQ began to regain its high ground.

She took out a transparent lunch box from her prop bar, poured out the two pieces of toast in the box, then used a scoop net to scoop up the fish in the bucket, counting them while putting them back into the lunch box. She soon counted the number of fish.

"Advisor Jiang, you are right. There are a total of forty-five fish!" said Chi Qiuping.

Her voice was full of excitement.

Chi Qiuping believed that since Jiang Lai was able to infer the number of small fish in the bucket, it meant that she must have thought of some key information.

This way, she would have hope of escaping from the predicament.

Following this line of thought, Chi Qiuping's whole mental state instantly felt much better. She even gave Jiang Lai a somewhat forced smile.

Jiang Lai asked Chi Qiuping to recall the direction she was facing when she first appeared here, while continuing to observe the movements of the fish.

After observing for a while, she said to Chi Qiuping, "My guess was correct. The test you are facing is a nine-square grid, and it is the most basic kind of nine-square grid. I made this judgment based on the direction you were facing when you first entered here, the number of small fish in the bucket, and the situation of the piranhas."

"For the Nine-square grid, you need to combine the nine numbers from one to nine and put them into the corresponding grids so that the sum of the numbers in the three rows, three columns, and three diagonal rows is fifteen. There is a formula for this most basic Nine-square grid. Wear nine and wear one, three on the left and seven on the right, two and four are the shoulders, six and eight are the feet, and five is in the center." Jiang Lai recited.

"The nine-square grid under your feet will open in a certain order. Wait, when the corresponding grid opens, you must follow my instructions and feed the fish in the bucket to the piranhas in a certain number. Each piranha will eat a corresponding fish."

"Ah, pay attention, the grid on your right is about to open. The number corresponding to that grid should be six." Jiang Lai said, "You must not panic, and you must act quickly, because the time each grid is open is equal to the number of fish in it, that is, the number of small fish you want to feed. For example, the grid that needs to be fed one fish will only be open for ten seconds. The grid that needs to be fed two fish will be open for twenty seconds, and so on."

Chi Qiuping quickly followed Jiang Lai's instructions, caught six small fish with a scoop net, and threw them into the open grid.

When she dropped the bait, the piranhas immediately swarmed over and began to eat it with relish, and the grid closed immediately.

Through the transparent glass, Jiang Lai and Chi Qiuping saw that because the piranhas were constantly eating the small fishes, their eating movements were very fast and agile, causing the originally clear water in the pond under the glass to instantly become turbid and filled with a large amount of blood.

Such a scene made Chi Qiuping, who was only separated from the piranhas by a glass, feel her scalp tingling and her legs going weak instantly.

Seeing the piranhas eating the small fish she fed until not even a bone was left, Chi Qiuping's face became extremely ugly.

At that moment, Jiang Lai clearly felt that her negative state had worsened.

"Don't be afraid. As long as you do what I say, I guarantee that nothing will happen. You have to believe in me and believe in yourself. You will be able to get out of this predicament successfully." Jiang Lai encouraged quickly.

Perhaps because the image of God No. 00009 was too deeply rooted in people's hearts, her encouragement at this moment was like a good medicine for Chi Qiuping.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to focus on obeying Jiang Lai's orders.

"Next is grid number 4, which is diagonally opposite grid number 6. Prepare four small fish."

……

Next, the two worked together to complete the feeding of grids 2, 8, 3, 7, 9, and 1.

There are fewer and fewer small fish left in the bucket.

Finally, only grid number five, located in the center, remained.

Just as Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to let Chi Qiuping move to the first feeding grid No. 6, and then feed the last five small fish to the grid No. 5 which was about to open.

"Advisor Jiang, are you...are you sure there will be no problem if I step on grid number six?" Chi Qiuping asked tremblingly.

just in case……

What if Consultant Jiang made a mistake in his judgment?

She doesn't want to fall into the pond and become food for those piranhas!

"No problem. Just do as I say. I have promised the organization that I will bring all of you back safely." Jiang Lai said firmly.

"Then..." Chi Qiuping pursed her lips, swallowed, moved carefully, and stepped on grid number six.

Just when she wanted to force an ugly smile towards Jiang Lai, and then scoop up the remaining five fish in the bucket with a scoop net and prepare to feed them to the piranhas under grid number five, her ugly smile froze on her face.

"Jiang... Consultant Jiang..."

Chi Qiuping's voice was trembling unnaturally, and she stammered: "Fish...fish..."
