    The old radio rustled: "The interview time is limited, we only wait 30 seconds."

    "30 seconds! We have to hurry!"

    Hearing that Zhang You wanted to ask for help from his roommate, Guo Guo and Zheng Wanqing threw the quilt in front of the radio, and immediately found out: they didn't know how to contact the radio at all!

    He didn't even say his phone number, it was obvious he was digging a hole on purpose. Whether they can answer the question or not is another matter. If they can't make a successful call, then they will not even have the possibility of delaying time for Zhang You.

    Among the three, Tang Xinjue remained silent, his eyes focused on the radio.

    "There are only 20 seconds left. We haven't received any calls~" Lily's sweet voice was accompanied by giggles, and she did not hide the maliciousness in her tone.

    On the radio, Zhang You anxiously fought for a chance for himself, but only got a cold answer.

    [—We don’t need to be reminded, all students in the school know how to contact us, which is normal, isn’t it? ]

    These words lingered in his ears, and Tang Xinjue's eyes moved.

    The next moment, she picked up the phone and dialed a number. The roommate asked in amazement, "How do you know the station number?"

    "In the school, no one knows about the student union, so it is normal that its contact number will be posted in the corridor of a dormitory building."

    The game really doesn't give any completely unsolvable dead ends. Recalling that when he just walked back to the bedroom, there were various posters hanging on the walls on both sides of the corridor, Tang Xinjue pressed the dial number: "One-third chance."

    Instant memory can only remember part of it, Tang Xinjue can remember a total of 3 strings of numbers, but can't remember which clubs and activities they belong to. They only had two chances of trial and error before the countdown was over.

    Fortunately, the first time tried it, the connection sounded.

    The person who answered the phone was Lily, perhaps through unstable electromagnetic waves, her voice was a bit gritted: "Hello, this is the student union."

    "I'm Zhang You's roommate." Tang Xinjue's voice was as gentle as ever, "I just listened to the radio, you will solve the heating problem for us, won't you?"

    In the face of the sudden turn-off, Lily choked on the phone, and Lily prepared to be blocked, and smirked twice: "Of course... After all, the school won't sit by and watch all the students freeze to death. However, whether a solution can be found is still very important. It depends on whether the students give the correct answers.”

    Can heating be changed just by interviewing students and asking them to answer a few questions? From a practical point of view, this is obviously illogical.

    So there is only one possibility - this is one of the exam level tasks.

    Tang Xinjue agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

    [Ding dong, task reminder: Please cooperate with the student union broadcast to find the real cause of the heating failure, and help the whole school to spend the night of cooling down. ]

    [If the task is completed, the winter will end early]

    Trigger new missions!

    Several people in the bedroom exchanged brightened eyes, and then heard a question from the other side of the phone:

    "So, dear classmate, what's your name?"

    "Tang Xinjue."

    "Very well, we will remember this cute name. Then, I believe you can help your roommate answer this question - do you know the reason for this heating failure?"

    Facing the problem, Tang Xinjue pondered for two seconds: "I can offer a few ideas."

    "First of all, heating is mainly provided by electric facilities, and from the point of view of the failure of all electric energy in the dormitory, the failure of heating may be due to a problem with the circuit network in the school."

    "Very good." Lily couldn't wait to interrupt: "Is this your answer?"

    Before Lily could continue to speak, Tang Xinjue continued to speak at a clear and uninterrupted pace: "Of course, as a university that is thoughtful for students, it will definitely not simply rely on electricity to maintain the complex project of heating in winter."

    Lily: "..."

    "So I prefer that the pipes in the school also failed. Because in the morning, my roommate had to unclog the pipes that were frozen. So it is very likely that the pipes were blocked, resulting in the inability to provide heating measures such as hot water and heating."

    "Oh—then this is the answer of classmate Tang—"

    "And, after combining the above two points, I have come up with a new possibility, which is from a biological and artificial point of view. Because this cooling came too suddenly, many people were frozen in the cold without taking precautions to keep warm. Outdoors, so it is also possible that the heating staff accidentally suffered accidental injuries such as frostbite, which in turn affected the heating of the school.”

    Tang Xinjue didn't pause for a second, and it was as smooth as reading a manuscript, finishing three points in one go.

    "...So, what is your answer?"

    Lily tried her best to suppress her irritability: "Student Tang, our radio time is limited, please give a clear answer."

    "Calm down, Lily classmate."

    Tang Xinjue smiled instead, "My final answer is that due to the combination of physical, biological, coincidental and other factors, the heating today suffered an irresistible delay, but I believe that students will definitely have a way to solve it as soon as possible, above."

    "..."

    "Well, well, well, we've got your answer. In that case, let's see if it's correct."

    The phone was rudely hung up, and it was obvious that the opposite party was too lazy to do anything, and he didn't want to listen to Tang Xinjue's speech at all.

    The dormitory was quiet for a moment, until the radio started rustling again, and the roommates recovered from their stunned state and asked, "This information... Where did you find it?"

    By contrast, they seem to have taken a four-hour vacation. In addition to "recumbent frozen to death", there is nothing to notice.

    Tang Xinjue let out a sigh of relief: "It's edited now."

    Three years of liberal arts plus three years of Chinese major, relying on the skills to quickly answer the paper even if you don't know a single point of knowledge, she temporarily summed up three points, which cover almost all possibilities, and can be rubbed a little bit. referred to as Tai Chi.

    roommate:"……"

    No words to describe, only awesomeness.

    Next, on the radio, the student council started to interview the next person. Lily smirked and asked, "It's still the same question. The student council wants you to give an answer within thirty seconds."

    After taking the lesson of Tang Xinjue, they increased the time limit this time.

    "I, I..." The second boy almost stammered and repeated half of Tang Xinjue's words.

    After he finished speaking, Lily smiled happily: "Oh, what a pity, you have repeated more than 30% of the interview answers with the previous classmate, and the answer is invalid~"

    "No, I can say it again, no, um!"

    After struggling for two times, the boy lost his voice, and in the distance there was a girl who was sobbing in panic, and it was the next person to be interviewed.

    Outside the radio, Guo Guo said in a low voice, "The last few interviewed are real students, or?"

    If it is a real person, it means that there are not only one of their dormitories in this exam, but also other "examiners", and some people may even have been eliminated at the beginning.

    Tang Xinjue frowned, "It is more than 70% possible that they are the same as us."

    As for the so-called student union, it is 100% not human.

    After interviewing four more people, could tell that they were all college students, and there was panic in their voices. When they were eliminated, they struggled and hoarse. And the calmest inside was actually Zhang You.

    In the end, only Zhang You and a boy survived with the answer that "natural disasters led to the birth of monsters and destroyed the heating".

    Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief in the dormitory. Judging from the state of his speech, Zhang You should have some measures to keep him warm at this time, and there is no danger of frostbite for the time being.

    Lily picked up the microphone in a sweet voice: "Then next, it's our field trip time~"

    "Both classmates gave very reliable answers, from which, the student council has detected four alternative inspection sites, which are—"

    "One, the power generation room; two, the water supply room; three, the heating staff restroom; four, the school swamp."

    "However, it's a pity that we can only choose one place to investigate at a time. Where to go first? Where to go next? Where can we find the truth, or...no one at all? The choice is left to the students in front of the radio! Your votes count , will decide the final location!"

    "Friendly reminder: the voting time is only three minutes, and each student can only cast one vote~"

    The radio suddenly fell silent, as if waiting for something.

    Tang Xinjue was the first to react, "We have to choose an option immediately, and then send the text message."

    Guo Guo took a deep breath with her red nose, widened her eyes and asked, "If you can't choose, what will you do?"

    "If you can't choose, it will be decided by [other classmates]."

    When Tang Xinjue's face was gloomy, he naturally exuded a temperament that strangers should not approach. Guo and Zheng knew that this was her performance when she was thinking about the problem quickly.

    Tang Xinjue was really thinking.

    Countless possibilities swirled in her mind, shaping and stripping away, and one by one, the corresponding answers were derived.

    The student will have language traps and there is too little information. The four options correspond to four possibilities for her and another boy. In a way, her answer widens the options, but only if there are the right options.

    Assuming that there is a correct option, if you want to be elected, you still need to go through the voting process. Who is the voting subject? Are they pulled into the survival game "Examinee?" or are they similar to the "Student Council"?

    If it is the former, then the accuracy rate will undoubtedly increase, because they have the same goal - end the winter before they freeze to death.

    And if it's the latter...their eyes are obviously the exact opposite of them.

    The former is for life, the latter is for death. This logic took shape in his mind, and Tang Xinjue felt relieved, and suddenly he had a measure.

    She asked her roommate to take out her mobile phone: "In my answer, it involves the first three position options, and we all vote for one."

    "Ah?" Guo Guo was at a loss, "Isn't it impossible to choose?"

    "We don't need to choose." Tang Xinjue pressed the send button with clear eyes: "Someone will help us choose."

    - "Ding dong, three minutes are up!"

    Lily's voice was a little excited, and she seemed to swallow her saliva before reading the result: "Let's take a look, ah, a full 75% of the audience chose [School Swamp], and 15% of the audience chose [ power generation room], eight percent of the audience chose the [water supply room], and only two percent of the audience chose the [heating staff lounge].”

    "It seems that the results are already obvious."

    She giggled: "Our first field trip site will be [School Swamp]!"

    "Then let's see you in an hour~"

    "Damn, why do you have to wait another hour?"

    If it weren't for the worry that this old radio could not hold up, Zheng Wanqing would have reached out and shot it flying.

    They were so cold now that they could not feel it, they were sore and hungry, and the thought of waiting for another hour made them suffocated.

    "By the way, is it possible to find the truth about heating in this swamp school?" Guo Guo was full of worries.

    Tang Xinjue firmly said, "Impossible."

    "..."

    This time Guo Guo really wanted to cry, "Really, really? Is this bad news?"

    If she read it right, Tang Xinjue seemed relieved?

    Guo Guo didn't understand, and Zheng Wanqing didn't understand even more. The two roommates huddled in down jackets and quilts, staring at Tang Xinjue with confused black eyes.

    "Among the four options, Swamp is the least likely to be correct." Tang Xinjue explained.

    If Tang Xinjue's answer was at least summed up based on the tasks of the three people in the morning and the situation in the dormitory, then the boy's answer was obviously nonsense, and he was judged to pass only by pretending to be calm.

    If the students participating in the test vote, even if they vote blindly, they will not vote for this item.

    "But now, the most outrageous option has won overwhelmingly with more than 70% of the votes. What does this mean?"

    The roommate thought about it, and his face gradually turned pale:

    "Indicating...they don't want the correct answer to be chosen?"

    Did the voter deliberately vote wrong?w, please keep in mind:,
