Zheng Jie suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Hey, I've thought of a possibility.

"Since this game can pass as long as only one person is voted to die, can we do it like this?

"From the beginning, there's no need to complete the fertility task. As long as we only save the most heinous criminal among all, and when the Barbarian Race invades in the end, the four Judicial Council players vote him to death, we can pass smoothly.

"Then the four people will enjoy the full benefit of the 300,000 visa time, each getting over 70,000."

Yang Yuting was a bit puzzled: "But isn't this a bit too much like playing from a god's perspective?"

Cai Zhiyuan shook his head: "This method won't work.

"Theoretically it's perfect, but there are too many variables in actual operation.

"Because the voting order in this game is meticulously designed by the Imitator, look here."

He pointed again to the rule details on the big screen.

"The final voting is in this order:

"First are the two assistants.

"Then are the two players forced into the game.

"Finally, it's the released criminal.

"If an additional criminal is released, he is the last to be judged.

"Let's take the current game situation as an example, if our community adopts this strategy, then Community 13 has many opportunities in the game to secretly hint to the criminal, letting the criminal vote with them to kill the two players from Community 17.

"In this situation, the criminal's one vote becomes the critical swing vote. Whichever side he stands with, that side becomes the majority.

"Of course, if the criminal and the players from Community 13 vote to kill the two people from Community 17, he will definitely be voted to death by the players from Community 13 in the end.

"But no matter what, keeping a heinous and cunning criminal till the end and hoping for trust between two unfamiliar communities is by no means a wise move.

"Any deviation in any link, or even if the criminal just has a random whim, could lead to disastrous consequences."

Zheng Jie thought for a bit: "Then what if we watch each other and don't allow anyone to approach the criminal privately?"

Cai Zhiyuan shook his head: "That's no use either, the criminal won't sit still and wait for death. He might figure this out on his own.

"Moreover, what if the other community gets anxious and plays their cards openly with you? They openly tell the criminal to vote you all to death together, how can you constrain their actions?"

Zheng Jie suddenly understood and nodded, indeed, this method really isn't reliable.

The premise of this plan is that the two communities have full mutual trust, but if there's such mutual trust, wouldn't everyone just play the game well?

Producing the Fertility Badge could also clear the game, why go to the last step and place fate on an entirely unreliable death vote?

Cai Zhiyuan continued: "In fact, Li Jiang killing Fei Xiong in the end was also due to the voting reason.

"Li Jiang ultimately chose to vote Chen Xin to death, so saving Chen Xin was definitely not out of chivalry.

"On the surface, if it's between Fei Xiong and Chen Xin for the final vote, Fei Xiong is male, Chen Xin is female, and Fei Xiong's probability of voting Li Jiang to death is lower.

"But if someone really thinks this way, they're stuck in a gender narrative; who says a male won't vote 'death' for a male?

"Fei Xiong, as a serial killer, is already insane. He might very well vote 'death' for everyone, and Li Jiang had used him many times for executions, so how could Fei Xiong show mercy to Li Jiang?

"Therefore, Li Jiang would certainly not allow Fei Xiong to live to vote.

"On the other hand, although Chen Xin is a female player, Li Jiang saved her life. The one directly causing the game's failure was Jiang He's role as Chief Judge.

"Between Li Jiang and Jiang He, Chen Xin is likely to protect Li Jiang and vote Jiang He.

"As for why Li Jiang, Chen Yumei, and Zhao Dong voted Chen Xin to death in the end?

"It's because the visa time awarded by this game is divided equally among all surviving players; the fewer surviving, the more the share.

"After Li Jiang and Chen Yumei confirmed their safety, they would naturally choose to vote Chen Xin and Zhao Dong, the last two criminals under trial, to death as much as possible.

"For Zhao Dong at this time, if she voted 'life' for Chen Xin, and Chen Xin had three votes to survive, then when it's Zhao Dong's turn to be judged, Chen Xin is likely to vote her to death and take more of the share.

"Conversely, if Zhao Dong voted Chen Xin to 'death', when it's her turn to be judged, only four people are left to vote, and as long as Yang Yuting votes 'life' for her, she's guaranteed survival.

"Thus, Zhao Dong couldn't rely on Chen Xin's big-heartedness to save her own life; her only choice was to vote Chen Xin to 'death'.

"This is a bit like the 'Pirate's Gold Coins' logical problem; the choices for the criminal aren't many."

Yang Yuting suddenly realized: "I see... I was wondering earlier why, since Li Jiang was chosen as a helper to enter the judgment game by Chen Yumei, he'd be considered a strong player in Community 13.

"But he didn't show particularly proactive behavior throughout the game.

"The strategy lay here."

Cai Zhiyuan said: "I think Li Jiang doesn't belong to the type of player with strong breaking capability; he adopts more of a safe strategy.

"In the case where Jiang He was the Chief Judge and held a significant opinion against him, his suggestions were unlikely to be adopted, so it was better to go with the flow. Even a weaker identity has its own style of play.

"'Chief Judge' is a superior identity, but it also means that once the game fails, they will bear the greatest responsibility.

"Once the voting begins, the 'Chief Judge' is the most likely to die.

"Li Jiang doesn't need to ensure the victory of the game, as long as he ensures that he and Chen Yumei appropriately increase their likability and lower their presence, so as not to be the first ones voted to death."

Yang Yuting, somewhat frustrated, grabbed her hair, losing all composure: "In other words, Jiang He indeed stumbled into quite a few traps in this game and precisely walked into the only dead end planned by the Imitator...

"But one thing I still don't understand, although it doesn't really matter which mechanism, 1 or 2, she had to choose, why did she insist that women bind to mechanism 1?"

Everyone fell into silence.

Clearly, to explain this issue, one cannot just delve into the game mechanics; a comprehensive analysis of Jiang He's character is needed.

But most of those present didn't really understand her particularly well, so they couldn't provide a very accurate analysis.

Li Renshu picked up the conversation: "Just right, I should also explain the issue of the Immunity Coupon.

"When everyone decided to leave the Immunity Coupon in my care, I did indeed promise that the use of the Immunity Coupon wouldn't particularly distinguish between the strong and the weak. It would be used on whoever first encounters the risk of death.

"However, I didn't break my political promise.

"Because I also stated that there would be situations where we wouldn't save, mainly three types:

"The first is to undermine community stability and unity.

"The second is acting recklessly in the game and not following team strategy.

"The third is clear betrayal in the game.

"I might not be able to consider every other scenario comprehensively, but if there's a situation whose destructive power is roughly equal to these three, it's also possible not to save.

"Of course, if it's other bad behaviors far less harmful than these three, I would most likely still choose to save, leaving the final judgment to the two players with veto power."

Fu Chen hesitated for a moment: "Are you saying that Jiang He acted recklessly in the game and didn't execute our given 'all-kill' strategy?

"But at that time, the people on the scene couldn't distinguish which was the strategy from our community.

"Or are you saying she didn't accept Yang Yuting's suggestion?

"But there was no clear decision-making priority between her and Yang Yuting.

"If Lawyer Lin and Jiang He entered the game, and she didn't listen to Lawyer Lin's advice, we could say it was not following team strategy, but Yang Yuting's suggestion wasn't of that weight, was it?

"We can't think about this issue from a god's perspective.

"Jiang He faced a highly targeted judgment game; falling into traps was a high-probability event. If we decide not to save because of this, then if others encounter a targeted judgment game and fall into traps, do we not save them too?

"Of course, judging by everyone's attitude, perhaps everyone recognizes this result, but I still hope these standards are more clearly defined."

Li Renshu shook his head: "No, my decision not to save her wasn't entirely because of the second point, but also because of the first point.

"I believe Jiang He's presence would undermine the community's stability and unity, and her ideological leanings are very dangerous. Or rather, she's already attempting some similar actions.

"I've made my decision considering these two points."

Fu Chen was taken aback: "Undermine the community's stability and unity? What's the basis for this?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yongxin's brow twitched, and his expression became slightly unnatural.

If Li Renshu considered any private alliances outside the five-person group as 'undermining community stability and unity,' then his actions would certainly count.

Wouldn't it be that during his time of danger, Li Renshu wouldn't save him either?

However, what Li Renshu said next reassured Wang Yongxin a lot more.

Li Renshu continued to explain: "Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying the community doesn't allow private alliances or opposing voices.

"Each of us has an equal vote, so expressing dissenting opinions or forming alliances to influence community agendas are all their rightful rights.

"What I'm talking about undermining community stability and unity mainly refers to certain values and ideological trends whose destructive and divisive effects far outweigh their positive effects.

"For example, I think Jiang He has a very obvious gender narrative inclination, and she has been constantly making attempts based on this inclination."

Xu Tong was perplexed: "Wait a minute, is that really the case?

"Jiang He hardly participated in community agenda discussions before, right?

"Gender narratives, are you saying she has feminist thoughts? But that's not exactly a crime warranting death, is it? To be fair, don't we all, to some extent, have a little?

"Whether it's feminism or masculism, as long as it doesn't harm others, it should be everyone's freedom, right?"

Li Renshu nodded: "Yes, on this point, I agree that everyone's thoughts are free.

"Whether feminism or masculism, as long as it doesn't affect others, it doesn't matter what you believe in.

"Just like Brother Wang believes in the supremacy of capital, while some people hate the rich, these are two opposing values, but as long as they don't seriously infringe on the interests of other community members and can be reconciled, the community should remain neutral on this issue.

"But Jiang He has recently been noticeably trying to influence the community's political activities through gender narratives. You may not feel it very clearly, but as a party involved, I can feel it very clearly."
