Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 370 A Wonderful Question

After Lin Yu won this round, the third round naturally came.

He spoke without any hesitation.

"I won't be using any 'support cards' this round."

He directly took the last card in his hand.

The ghost-faced man also took the last card.

"I also chose not to use any 'support cards'."

If neither of them chooses to use "auxiliary cards", the process will naturally be much simpler.

Lin Yu and the ghost-faced man revealed their cards at the same time - scissors against scissors, a draw.

The ghost-faced man looked at the result and announced in a low voice.

"You win the first round."

"I'm curious...why?"

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows: "Losers can also ask winners questions."

"You don't have to answer, I'm just asking casually."

The ghost-faced man said this, collected the rock-paper-scissors cards on the table and began to shuffle them.

Lin Yu looked at the ghost-faced man cutting the cards and shrugged.

"I know what you're probably wondering about...how I was so sure that the second card you just drew would produce a cloth."

"The reason is simple. The cards in my hand are rock, rock, scissors, and through the auxiliary cards I see rock and paper... After you play rock, you will no longer have rock in your hand."

"And after I used my card again and threw out Scissors, you didn't even hesitate to use your support card. This means that in your judgment, my throwing out Scissors was actually beneficial to you. In other words, if you couldn't have Rock in your hand, you definitely had Paper."

Lin Yu stopped explaining here and did not continue.

In order to induce the other party to use the cloth immediately, Lin Yu also used micro-expressions to carry out psychological tactics.

His downward "pursed lips" micro-expression may seem "unhappy" to the other party at first glance, but in fact it looks...

Instead, it seems a bit exaggerated, like a deliberate micro-expression.

But with Lin Yu's acting skills, how could he possibly give a performance that was "slightly exaggerated" and could be seen as flawed by outsiders?

This was of course another disguise on his part - with this expression, he made the other party guess that he might have replaced some "sure-win" cards, but in order to prevent him from using auxiliary cards, he had to pretend to be regretful and entangled.

So... in that instant of judgment, he probably thought that he had "two stones" in his hand.

So he used "cloth" - as long as the game could be dragged into a draw, it would be an advantageous situation for him.

Because "support cards" are a kind of resource.

Since he used two auxiliary cards but ended up in a draw, it was definitely a loss for Lin Yu.

But it is impossible for Lin Yu to take the initiative to mention his acting skills as May May.

"I see," the Ghost-Faced Man nodded, "You're getting the hang of this game pretty quickly."

“It’s more of a matter of luck.”

Lin Yu said modestly.

The ghost-faced man shook his head. "No, no, you're absolutely right. Support cards are a resource... So when you're dealt two rocks and one scissors, you naturally have to pour your resources into securing victory."

"It was because of your decisive action that I, despite being dealt a relatively 'disadvantaged' hand, was able to give up this round."

Lin Yu nodded.

He agreed with what the ghost-faced man said.

After listening to the rules, Lin Yu had already determined the basic gameplay and strategy of this game.

When you have the advantage in cards, you can choose to devote "resources" to secure your victory.

When you are at a disadvantage, you should try to drag the game out as long as possible or even give up to preserve the resources in your hand, or use "resources" at critical points to achieve a comeback.

This is why Lin Yu chose to use psychological tactics - he wanted to ensure that his two cards could firmly lock in victory in this game.

If the opponent really uses the card-swapping tactic... even in Lin Yu's calculations, the probability of the ghost-faced man taking out a card from the remaining deck to swap out a card that allows him to win is very small, which only adds variables.

and so……

Lin Yu would rather the other party not use any cards.

Of course, this psychological tactic doesn't just work in this small game.

This itself is also a temptation.

The fact that the other party fell for the trick showed that he was more perceptive and intelligent than Lin Yu had imagined, and his personality was also calmer.

Although there is an element of misleading, if the other party is a reckless person, he would not choose to use "cloth" to try to catch his stone.

The probability of using auxiliary cards to exchange cards and taking a risk by placing the cloth on the next card is actually not much different.

But unfortunately, for Lin Yu, who already knew the unknowns of the seven cards on the field, this was hardly a matter of generalization.

The man with the ghost mask made a "please" gesture.

"Well, Mr. May, ask your question."

Lin Yu looked at the ghost-faced man and did not ask questions in a hurry.

"If you consider 'support cards' as resources, your choice isn't wrong. When I invested two support cards, you didn't use any cards at all, just trying to see if you could pull off a draw, practically handing the game to me. This gave you an overwhelming advantage in support card numbers."

"Especially...if you answer my next question, I'm afraid I'll lose the second round without a doubt."

Lin Yu spoke calmly, and the ghost-faced man nodded.

"That's right, so you should be careful with this question... I'm more open-minded than you think."

Lin Yu laughed: "Yes, so I must find a problem that you can't face at all..."

Before Lin Yu could speak, the ghost-faced consultant interrupted him again.

"Wait a minute, Lord Mayu-sama... What I'm trying to say is, don't forget why you're playing this game."

"If you can use this question to find the murderer directly, wouldn't that be more profitable than getting a card?"

"So—as long as you believe this question is more valuable than a 'support card,' you can ask it."

The ghost-faced man said.

Lin Yu nodded calmly: "Thank you for your kind reminder... But I still want to win."

To be precise, as a guy full of secrets, even for Lin Yu, simply "not answering" some questions can be considered an "answer".

Therefore, Lin Yu’s strategy is also very simple.

He wanted to not lose a single round in this game.

Therefore, the value of the question he asked must not be as simple as "a card".

The answer to Lin Yu’s question is more valuable than the worst result of “losing a small game”.

He looked at the ghost-faced man opposite him and softly asked the question he had prepared.

"tell me……"

"What's your ID number?"
