After much thought, he made a decision.
"Pick two of the easiest questions to answer."
"Do you have an idea?"
Arisu Sakayanagi, who was standing next to him, looked at the smiling face of the real estate agent and guessed what he was thinking: "Just tell me roughly. Why did you choose the simplest question?"
"It's very simple. There are ten questions, and we will do five of them. Two of them are chosen by us, and three are given to us by the other side."
The real estate agent first summarized the rules to let everyone continue to listen to his reasoning: "As for answering questions, each successful question will give 15 points and each failed question will deduct 20 points. Therefore, in this first round, our answering speed is to win. In this way, if we answer two questions, we can get 30 points, and if we fail the remaining three questions, we will lose 30 points instead of 54 points. Therefore, under the premise that we have an advantage over the opponent now, we can consider reducing the points deducted for wrong questions first, which can be reduced by 6 points at a time. After three rounds, our losses will be minimized if we make mistakes again."
To put it bluntly, while you are faster than the Tiger Team, hurry up and do the questions to reduce your error rate. After all, each team has at least three chances to answer questions between 0 and 120 points. If you answer incorrectly when your score is high, the points deducted will be a lot.
"We should also be careful when deducting points from the Tigers. We should let them get 60 points first and then deduct them heavily. This way, the other team will lose more points and spend more time."
The idea behind Zhimou is actually like this. The idea is not to find out which questions are so difficult that the other party cannot answer them, but which questions the other party cannot answer and which questions the other party can answer.
The situations of making the opponent score zero when the score is 30 and pushing the score down when the score is 60 are different, because the more wrong questions you make, the greater the points deduction will be. This also means that both parties must find opportunities to slowly deduct points from the opponent at the beginning, and there must be no surplus.
"As for this idea, I think the Tigers may not be able to come up with it. They are very likely to let us lose all the points in the first round. It seems that the progress has been slowed down, but in fact, we have not suffered as much as the opponent."
Right now, the Tiger Team is preoccupied with delaying the progress of the Dragon Team. In addition, they don’t study the given rules in detail because they still have to conquer the first stage. The real estate agent can think carefully and struggle for a long time in the first two classes before making this choice, which is completely different from the Tiger Team.
"When the amount of deductions gradually decreases, we will consider pushing it down when it reaches 30 points. However, we should be close to victory by then, so we won't talk about it anymore. To be honest, I care more about the last sentence. What is the special situation?"
For people who seek stability, the most annoying thing is random events.
Random events can certainly make you soar to fame, but they can also get you into trouble.
Advantages may turn into disadvantages, and disadvantages may turn into advantages. Since such things are unpredictable, risk-averse people hate them.
Real estate agents are obviously risk-averse.
"We'll talk about this later. It's impossible for them to always target you in special situations, right? Basically, the gap between the two sides won't be that big. We have our own advantages, so we just can't let our guard down."
"makes sense."
Ryuen Shoko comforted the real estate agent, not knowing that she had planted a flag.
When everyone was discussing, they were discussing it in Class C as usual, and they didn't talk through other people, so all the words went into the ears of Shiina who was reading a book not far away.
Shiina rolled his eyes slightly, chuckled, and pretended nothing had happened.
The few of them saved time for lunch. Before the others brought their meals, the real estate agent quickly began to prepare the topics to work on. After the ten questions were picked out, he observed them and roughly picked out two of them based on his own judgment, and gave them to himself and Sakayanagi to write.
"Lunch is here."
At this time, Ishizaki Daichi also brought lunch over, and the two let Ryuen and Ichinose eat first, and then took over and continued doing the homework after they finished eating.
Long Yuan ate very quickly. She never cared about her image when eating, so she was first-rate at eating. The rice was gone in a snap. She threw the empty lunch box into the trash bag and then took on other jobs.
The real estate agent asked Sakayanagi to eat first. As the only boy in the team, he naturally had to put in some effort.
Therefore, he was the last one to eat, and while eating he was looking at the small device in Ichinose's hand to solve the questions.
This small device is not very big, so in order to see clearly, the distance between the real estate agent and Ichinose seems a little close and a little intimate.
The real estate agent didn't care much about it. He was no longer a shy virgin. As a seasoned man, he wouldn't feel shy about being close to a beautiful girl, not to mention that he was in the middle of a battle, so he was naturally more serious.
Ichinose seemed a little shy. She didn't expect the real estate agent to be so close to her, so she became a little distracted.
However, she still cared about the competition, so she answered the questions seriously. Even though there was a beauty beside her, it only affected her slightly and did not make her feel nervous and cause her to make mistakes.
The Dragon Team made good progress and soon reached the first line of 30 points. This situation also caused both sides to suspend the game, and the Tiger Team had to choose the assigned questions.
Just as the real estate agent had expected, the Tiger Team did not go into the details of the rules, so they selected the three most difficult questions out of the remaining seven and gave them to the real estate agent.
The real estate agent saw that the questions were not difficult and he had answered all of them successfully, so he simply gave up and ignored the 30 points.
This also reduced the original 20-point deduction for wrong questions to 14 points.
The points are not needed, but the time does not disappear. There is no option to hand in the paper early if the test is to be completed within half an hour, so several people started to rest here for half an hour and continue to work after the time is up.
In just one lunch hour, these 30 points were deducted, and then the second attack began.
"Do you still choose difficult questions?"
"Well, if you choose again, you can only lose 8 points. You can prepare to fight for it the third time."
Thinking that the deduction mechanism was about to end, the real estate agent started to make trouble without any care.
After they finished answering the questions for the second time, the Tiger Group also completed the first stage. According to the regulations, they entered a forced rest period and could not answer any more questions.
Chapter 58: A Situation That Makes Even Ichinose Jealous
Although they were not allowed to answer questions, there was no rule that said they could not choose questions, so when the real estate agency had accumulated 30 points for the second time, the game was paused again to give the Tiger Team time to choose three questions for the Dragon Team.
The Tiger Team didn't care much and directly selected three questions and gave them to the Dragon Team, which put the Dragon Team into a half-hour cooling-off period again.
This half hour seems to be more fatal. Not to mention this half hour, the previous half hour was the same. The first time I didn't answer the questions happened to be during the lunch break, and this half hour was stuck after class. None of the times was stuck during get out of class.
If you accumulate enough points during the break but don't do it during class, you can continue to accumulate points after class.
The real estate agent was not too discouraged about this, he just thought it was not a big problem. Anyway, the next two days were rest days, which meant that the Tiger Team would not be able to find time to grab a bargain.
The time advantage saved in the first round was thus demonstrated. The disunity of the Tiger Team, coupled with its advantages and disadvantages, made it clear that the gap was huge when compared.
By the time the Tiger Group starts the competition tomorrow, the Dragon Group will have already reduced the score for wrong questions to almost 0.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work today, let's continue working hard tomorrow."
After submitting the questions for the third time, it was already past five o'clock and the time was almost up, so the real estate agent had no intention of continuing to do the questions and simply lowered the points deducted for the wrong questions to avoid losing all the points due to future mistakes.
This time, the points deducted were 8, 6 and 4, leaving exactly 2 points. After that, they didn't have to worry about making mistakes. At most, they could take a half-hour break after accumulating 30 points. It was very relaxing.
"So where is the middleman going?"
"Go back to the dormitory and lie down and rest. I'm too tired today and don't want to do anything else."
The real estate agent's words made Sakayanagi Arisu cover his mouth and laugh secretly: "As expected, you are the one who likes to make trouble the most."
"Hmm~"
The real estate agent's indifferent look made Sakayanagi Yuusu even happier.
When I say I'm going back to the dormitory to have a good rest, it's definitely not just a simple rest.
They always say to do a little bit of this or a little bit of that.
5.2.6.6.5.2.2.5.1.
Of course, I'm not talking about color, but simply saying that he is not quiet in the dormitory. He is not the kind of person who lies on the sofa and watches TV as soon as he gets back to the dormitory.
He is indeed a homebody, but not to that extent. He still does some work.
For example...treat yourself today.
Humming a song as he came into the supermarket, the real estate agent had already started thinking about what to eat tonight.
"Hmm? Aren't you going back to the dormitory, Broker-kun?"
Ichinose didn't expect to meet the real estate agent again here. If he had known this would happen, he would have gone together.
As for why the two of them didn't walk together but still met in the supermarket... it was because Ichinose went to deliver something to someone else and came here at this time.
Then why was it that even though Ichinose took a detour, he was still able to meet the real estate agent... Because the real estate agent walked very slowly, as if he was taking a stroll.
As long as he doesn't walk with others, he will never walk fast if he walks alone. He lives a leisurely life and walking is just a pure stroll. As for whether it is a waste of time or not, it is up to him.
He just likes doing it anyway.
"Well, buy something before going back to the dormitory so that we can cook when we get back."
"Mr. Broker is cooking again... Do you cook every day?"
"Yeah, have you had dinner yet?"
"Not yet. I plan to go after I finish shopping."
"Would you like to go out for dinner together?"
"Is it okay? Then I won't be shy~"
It was common for the real estate agent to treat people to dinner, and in the beginning he would also invite some boys from Class C to his dormitory for dinner.
But the problem was that Ryuen Shoko was staying at home, so naturally the boys didn't dare to go there.
Who is that? She’s the big sister. If you go into the nest she occupies, you’re just looking for death.
I was already a little scared of her at school, and if I saw her changing into home clothes in the dormitory, I would at least dig my eyes out if she didn't beat me to death.
Everyone has privacy, and the boys in Class C all felt that Long Yuan needed privacy, so none of them dared to go to the real estate agency's dormitory.
So after inviting him several times and seeing that no one came, he stopped inviting him.
Boys were not very willing to go to his dormitory, but girls were an exception. However, when inviting girls, he would not just invite any girl he met. Instead, he would only invite those he was familiar with.
Not only Ichinose, but also Yamaoka Rin and Kimura Yui have been invited, but they don't go very often, mainly because they can't get used to the food prepared by the real estate agency.
Kimura Yui prefers light meals, so she has little appetite for the food prepared by the real estate agency. The food does taste good, but she just doesn't like it.
As for Rin Yamaoka, due to her upbringing, she is not used to everyone eating a large plate of food. She is more accustomed to eating small bowls of food, with several small dishes in front of each person. This is what she is used to.
To put it bluntly, I can't let go. I always feel that being too intimate is not okay.
But Ichinose didn't mind it at all. She had been invited to dinner by the real estate agency from time to time since last semester, but the invitations had never made her as happy as today.
"So what are we having for dinner tonight?"
"Tonight... sweet and sour carp, minced meat and garlic sprouts, smashed cucumbers and cooked lettuce."
Smashed cucumber and boiled lettuce are the two most favorite vegetarian dishes of the real estate agent. When drinking, he can do without peanuts, but he must have smashed cucumber. Lettuce is more reflected in hot pot. When eating hot pot, he can do without any other vegetables, but he must have lettuce and mushrooms.
Once when he was eating hotpot alone, he just had lettuce and beef rolls, and he was so happy eating it.
"As expected, the agent really likes lettuce and cucumber. He was also very happy when he saw these two dishes when he had the wild vegetable set meal."
Sometimes when the real estate agent goes to the cafeteria to order food, if he sees these two dishes in today's wild vegetable set meal, he will directly order the wild vegetable set meal and also order a few meat dishes. The real estate agent likes to eat vegetarian food very much, which makes Ichinose a little difficult to understand.
In her opinion, the real estate agent even ate less meat than she did, and he didn't like snacks that much, so it was no wonder he was so thin every day.
There are always reasons for people to be thin. Some people don't gain weight no matter what they eat, because they have good digestion and absorption. The real estate agent is not one of them, but he doesn't eat meat that often, and his diet is also regulated so that he doesn't gain extra fat, which makes many girls jealous.
At least for Ichinose, a girl who always has to pay attention to her figure, it is indeed worthy of envy.
Chapter 59: Not Frank~
"The meal is ready~"
Putting the last dish of sweet and sour carp on the table, the real estate agent took off his apron.
Ayanokouji beside her walked directly to the real estate agent, took the apron, and put it away in the kitchen.
Then she took the chopsticks out of the kitchen and started distributing them to several people.
"Are we just the three of us having dinner today?"
Ichinose seemed a little reserved, as compared to the past, it was unusual to have only three of them together today.
"Well, Shouko is going to exercise, so we'll warm her up when she comes back. Hiyori has an appointment with Yamaoka to hang out today. Chiaki and Koharu are working part-time jobs, and Kikyo is busy too. It's up to Arisu to come or not. They all have their own things to do, so don't worry about it."
Real estate agents have long been accustomed to the situation where there are more or less people in their dormitories.
Anyway, there is basically no such thing as a normal phenomenon. Normally, he should be the only one like this.
It's clearly a dormitory for one person, but it feels like a shared dormitory.
But there are also advantages to training together. At least it can be lively.
The real estate agent likes hustle and bustle and hates quietness. However, he doesn’t like to be in the hustle and bustle himself, but likes to watch others be in the hustle and bustle.
Sometimes, it might be just the real estate agent and Ayanokouji who have dinner together. Anyway, Ayanokouji is basically always in the real estate agent's dormitory. After all, her job is to be a maid for the real estate agent and clean the dormitory every day.
Including washing dishes.
It’s one thing for a real estate agent to like cooking, but just because someone likes cooking doesn’t mean they like washing dishes.
Cooking is fun, but washing dishes is boring. That kind of mechanized work does not bring happiness to people, so washing dishes was left to Ayanokouji.
Occasionally, when the real estate agent sees Ayanokouji busy, he will choose to wash the clothes himself, but this is a rare case after all.
As for Ryuuen? How could she possibly do the work on her own? Other girls would say they would help Ayanokouji, but it was totally impossible for her to do that.
I can only say that he was spoiled by the real estate agent and he doesn't even bother to wash the dishes.
“Is it okay for three people to eat so much food?”
"Oh, no problem. At worst, we can just pack the leftovers and make them into tomorrow's lunch box or give them to Binjiang-san when the time comes... There might be a little more today, but in the past, when there was less, Ayanokouji would eat it all."
