Ming Ke: When the villain accidentally mixes into the protagonist group

The dark horse woman nodded slightly and turned her wheelchair into room 1.

The dark red door curtain blocked the view. Although most people guessed that there were only ordinary wheat ears like those in the fields in the room, they were still curious about the scene behind the curtain.

A few people calculated in their minds the time it would take for the pink rabbit and the Siamese cat to enter the room, estimating the size of Room 1. Noticing that the Siamese cat seemed to take a little less time, they glanced at the pink rabbit hiding behind the gray rabbit.

I guess the pink rabbit is moving too slowly around the room because it's scared?

But Bourbon, who had been there before, knew that the room behind the door marked No. 1 was no longer the original Room 1. He watched the woman who called herself Persephone turn her wheelchair and disappear behind the dark red curtain.

"Mr. Siamese Cat, how many ears of wheat are in there? Is there any danger?" The tabby cat girl asked, staring at the door that was slowly closing.

Bourbon smiled and answered in a serious tone, "There's nothing dangerous in there. There are so many wheat ears that you'll know when you go in."

Obviously, such an answer was not enough to satisfy everyone present. Most people stared at the wheat awns on the Siamese cat's chest that were not hidden well.

Bourbon turned sideways to avoid the sight of those people, but he was still discovered by someone with ulterior motives. From the arrangement and number of the wheat ears exposed at the opening of the coat, it was inferred that there were four ordinary wheat ears hidden in the coat.

"Are there just ordinary ears of wheat in there?" the onlookers whispered.

"It must be just ordinary ears of wheat." Someone firmly believed in this conclusion.

A sweet female voice sounded, and Lily looked at the Siamese cat, "Make an offer, I want to know what's inside."

"Mr. Monkey, do you think I'm short of money?" Bourbon said with a warm smile on his face.

Someone outside the venue started to make a noise, "Take out the wheat ears in your arms so we can see them! The pink rabbits were all brought out with the hands, why are you hiding them?"

"That's not a good idea." Bourbon refused with a smile.

Looking at Bourbon's harmless smile, Mingyue was filled with doubts.

Mice are good at disguising themselves. After all, those who are not good at disguising themselves have long died. So which ones are sincere and which ones are fake? Why are they chasing after someone regardless of their own lives? Mingyue couldn't guess, and couldn't figure it out.

The door to Room 1 slowly closed.

Mingyue and his group didn't want to attract too much attention, so they retreated to a corner.

"Did I...did I bring out all the marked ones? Could they not be the most valuable?" Ooka Momiji looked very nervous and looked up at the Siamese cat.

Bourbon squatted down and looked at Ooka Momiji at eye level, smiled and nodded, "Well, I think these two should be very expensive." After that, he stretched out his hand from his clothes, and two jeweled ears of wheat lay on his hand wrapped in gauze.

However, Scotland noticed a hint of pink peeking through the white gauze and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The rest of the people's attention was focused on the two jeweled ears of wheat.

One is a wheat ear made of gold, and each grain on the ear is a yellow diamond, the clarity and color of the yellow diamond are first-class. The other is made of emerald green and looks priceless.

"This one is also valuable." Mingyue took out the jeweled wheat ear hidden in her palm and placed it in Ooka Hongye's palm.

Bourbon said in a low voice, "According to our previous agreement, you will choose the one with the highest price. If you are the first place, you must choose the gray rabbit to avoid entering the loser's revival match."

The red fox masked man looked around and lowered his voice to question Ooka Hongye, "Aren't we only allowed to take out two wheat ears? Adding the two ordinary wheat ears from before, isn't that a violation of the rules?"

Ooka Hongye's face turned pale. He held the ear of wheat inlaid with yellow diamonds in his palm and shrank behind Mingyue.

"It's not against the rules." Bourbon explained, and opened the collar of the shirt. An ordinary ear of wheat was divided into four sections and fixed to the inside of the shirt with thin gold thread. "Originally it was two sections, but now it's four. If Miss Pink Rabbit hadn't done this, I might not have thought of such a clever way."

Mingyue glanced at Bourbon, trying to see the purpose behind the smile. She didn't believe that Bourbon couldn't think of this method.

However, the red fox masked man seemed to believe it, nodded slightly, and said to himself: "So this is possible."

Ooka Hongye looked at the Siamese cat with sparkling eyes and smiled sweetly on her beautiful red lips. "If we do this, can we fool others? They will think there are only ordinary wheat ears, so they will choose ordinary wheat ears. After all, that's what I thought at the time."

Mingyue turned to look at Ooka Hongye and said as if praising her, "It's amazing that you came up with this plan."

"If I didn't know about the existence of these wheat ears made of jewels at the beginning, I would probably bring out an ordinary wheat ear." Bourbon glanced at Mingyue. "When I see this wheat ear made of jewels halfway through the journey, I will be very excited."

Ooka Hongye clasped her hands together and said as if praying, "I hope I can trick them all."

The red fox masked man said thoughtfully, "It's hard to say. If Miss Black Horse who just went in didn't have an ordinary wheat ear in her hand when she came out, she would probably be suspected."

"Then..." Ooka Hongye's expression darkened.

"You're the next one among us to go in, right?" Lei looked at the man in the red fox mask.

The red fox masked man looked at the Siamese cat, "Did you mark it?"

"No." Bourbon stood up slowly.

"So how do I choose?"

"Do you know the 37% rule?" Mingyue looked at the man in the red fox mask.

The red fox masked man frowned slightly, "37% rule?"

Scotland and Lei looked towards the moon.

"The 37% rule comes from the book The Beauty of Algorithms." Mingyue explained in a low voice, "This rule was proposed by mathematician Euler, and 37% is used as the dividing point. The part before 37% is used for observation, and the part after % is used for decision making. This method also applies to this game."

Ooka Hongye was confused.

Bourbon nodded slightly in agreement and described the general situation in Room 1. "The first half is mostly ordinary wheat ears, followed by a long section of jeweled wheat ears, but the value of this section of jeweled wheat ears is not as high as the latter. Then there is another short section of ordinary wheat ears, and then you will encounter jeweled wheat ears again. Most of the jewels here are very expensive. The last section is also ordinary wheat ears."

The few people who did not enter Room 1 secretly noted down the key information in their hearts.

"So I just need to observe the first third of the wheat ears in the second section of the jeweled wheat ears. In the next two-thirds of the route, I will just choose the right one when I see the right one, right?"

"Ah."

The man in the red fox mask frowned, "I don't know much about jewelry."

Ooka Momiji looked at the man with the red fox mask and said, "It doesn't matter. Just take the pretty ones you see."

"As long as I'm not at the bottom, it's fine." Lei still had a cold face.

"Xiaoyue, after we leave here, we will exchange diaries. Don't worry, Mononobe and..." Ooka Hongye looked at the man with the red fox mask but did not say his name, "In short, they will definitely find a way to get us out of here."

Three bottles of whiskey's eyes fell on Mingyue.

Bourbon was still wary of Rye, while Scotland took a deep breath.

Ooka Hongye continued to speak out what was in her heart, "Xiaoyue, you also want to leave here. This is too scary, they will kill people..."

Mingyue patted Ooka Hongye's arm soothingly, with a gloomy look on her face.

"Sorry……"

The sudden apology caught Mingyue off guard.

Lei was keenly aware that something must have happened between Mingyue and these people from the Ooka family during the time he was away.

"If I hadn't fainted from fright at that time, I would never have let you be taken away by them." Ooka Hongye's eyes were red and her face was serious. "You have been helping me all the time, but I didn't help at all..."

Mingyue smiled slightly, "Fortunately you didn't provoke her."

The man with the red fox mask stared at the bright moon for a long time.

Scotland noticed that the blonde girl wearing a lion mask and walking towards them with a blind stick, so he warned her.

"I want to see your ears of wheat," Maffia Karen said straight to the point.

Bourbon narrowed his eyes, stood in front of the two rabbits, and looked at the underworld princess in front of him. The pair of empty eyes made Bourbon feel very uncomfortable. "Sorry, I can't agree to your request."

The man in the red fox mask knew that the lion was coming for the gray rabbit, and he looked warily at the elk and parrot beside the lion.

Rye and Scotland also took two rabbits under their protection.

"Heh." The tall parrot woman sneered, and when she was about to say something, Mafia Karen spoke first.

"It seems that you don't welcome me." Mafia Karen looked at Gray Rabbit with her empty eyes. She came here because she heard something. After all, she didn't want her valued partner to become someone else's meal.

Scotland had a gloomy face and asked back: "Why should I welcome you?"

The tall parrot woman glared fiercely at the two men wearing wolf masks. A plan gradually took shape in her mind, and she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth slightly.

At this time, the black horse woman turned her wheelchair and slowly came out of Room 1.

Everyone saw that she put the shawl on her legs, but a few awns were visible at one corner of the shawl.

The dark horse woman seemed to be aware of everyone's gaze and quickly stretched out her hand to block it, but due to her limited mobility, she was unable to cover it tightly.

The White Tiger woman quickly rushed out of the crowd, pushed the wheelchair to a corner, bent down, and asked in a low voice: "Have you made the mark?"

"Of course, I made two and didn't make any extra." The dark horse woman answered very calmly.

But the White Tiger woman was still worried, "Which location?"

"It must be the location you want. This is what we agreed on. Don't take the wrong one."

"Don't worry, I will give you what you deserve when the time comes."

"This is what you said."

The white tiger woman curled her lips slightly and nodded.

However, just as the white tiger woman and the black horse woman were having a secret conversation, a man wearing a baboon mask and with a slicked-back hair entered room 1.

It was a long time before he walked out of the room, and it seemed that the time he took was almost the same as that of the Pink Rabbit.

But when Mr. Baboon came out, he smiled evilly in the direction of the white tiger woman. The white tiger's heart skipped a beat and he rushed into room 1 anxiously.

When Baihu came out, her face was full of anger.

Everyone saw the white tiger holding an ordinary ear of wheat in his hand and rushing towards the black horse woman with great momentum.

Bai Hu noticed the puzzled looks from the people around him, suppressed his anger, lowered his voice, and passed the ordinary wheat ears in his hand to the black horse woman, "Is this the mark you made?"

However, the black horse woman was stunned. After looking around, she asked in a low voice: "Why did you take this out?"

"Isn't it your fault?"

"What good things did I do?" the dark horse woman asked back.

"All the conditions agreed to before are void!"

"I obviously..."

In an instant, the black horse woman and the white tiger woman saw the baboon hiding and grinning, and everything became clear.

The dark horse woman took a deep breath and said, "I can switch with you."

"you?"

"I took two jeweled ones, but I can't estimate their price." The black horse woman slowly lifted a corner of the shawl covering her legs, revealing two jeweled ears of wheat.

The white tiger woman glanced at the shawl and looked at the exposed wheat awns, "Then..."

"They just picked a few wheat awns, not the whole ear." The black horse woman glanced at the Siamese cat in the distance, "I think they probably used the same method."

"But I have to say, your calculations are very powerful. You haven't even included me in your calculations." The white tiger woman looked down at the frail woman sitting in the wheelchair. No matter how she looked at her, she felt that the black horse did not look like a Japanese.

He bent down and took a jeweled ear of wheat from the black horse woman, quietly hid it in his pocket, and then threw the ordinary ear of wheat in his hand to the black horse woman. After looking around, seeing that no one was paying attention, he quickly left.

And all this was seen by those who cared.

The man in the red fox mask frowned slightly. He had been discussing the feasibility of marking with several men around him, but after seeing the transaction between Black Horse and White Tiger, he knew that marking was no longer feasible.

I just hope that the Gray Wolf and the Black Wolf can cooperate to produce more valuable ears of wheat.

As more people entered, more and more people knew about Jeweled Wheat Ears, and an unspoken understanding seemed to form among these people.

Anyone who leaves Room 1 will have some wheat awns on their body, and will also conceal the wheat ears they have taken. This has led some people to believe that there is only one kind of wheat ear in the room - the ordinary wheat ears grown in the fields.

After all, as long as others can't get the best, then everything is fine.

After a long time, it was finally the turn of the man in the red fox mask.

"My lady is in your hands." The man with the red fox mask bowed to the other three men and walked into Room 1 step by step with trepidation.

Ooka Momiji held Mingyue's arm tightly, and the two rabbits stuck together like conjoined twins.

Soon, the man in the red fox mask walked out of the room. He was well disguised and no one noticed.

Mingyue guessed that the reason why the man in the red fox mask was so quick was that he was worried about the timid granddaughter of the former prime minister beside her - Ooka Hongye.

Time passes minute by minute.

If counted by the number of people, one third of the game has already passed. Now those who have not entered the room are eager to enter because they are afraid that there are not many high-value ears of wheat left, or they have been picked by others, and there are no larger ears of wheat in the room.

The elk housekeeper walked out of room 1 and looked at the eldest lady who was already guarding the door. Her expression was very unhappy and her brows were slightly frowned.

The bunny girl I had seen before was now standing next to Mafia Karen, "Ms. Lion, we can go in now."

"Miss..." the Elk housekeeper called out anxiously.

Maffia Karen stood still.

The Elk Housekeeper leaned over and whispered a few words in Mafia Karen's ear.

Mafia Karen frowned slightly and walked slowly into Room 1 with a blind stick, while the bunny girl followed Mafia Karen all the time.

Inadvertently, Bourbon caught a glimpse of Mingyue's raised mouth, and he felt puzzled...
