Chapter 1260 - 398: Universal Exchange
Agent 007, Wen Xishu, also started to show interest in 046.In the world of Agent Wen Xishu, there is not so much despair, but it’s definitely not beautiful either; it’s a world rife with wars.
He said:
"This is a brutal journey. If only one world is worth existing, which world would you choose? Would you be willing to abandon your own world?"
Wen Xishu eventually shook his head.
However, Agent 007 said:
"I kind of want to abandon it... I’m so tired. Do you know that feeling of being unable to detach?"
"You’ve learned too many national secrets, not just your own country’s but others’ as well."
"Everyone wishes for your death, but without technology in war, you hold immense value."
"You can never detach; sometimes you wish for the war to be over, but then you hope the war never ends."
Wen Xishu gave a rare glance at 007 Wen Xishu and said:
"You’ve already done very well."
Wen Xishu chuckled:
"046 has started the interview."
...
Wen Xishu began the interview.
He approached the interviewer.
As expected, since his keyword was "explanation," the interviewer requested him to play the role of a math teacher.
The interviewer said:
"Hello, your teaching specialty is mathematics. How would you explain the solution process for the following problem to your students?"
A completely uncomplicated math problem appeared before Wen Xishu.
Three-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division; all Wen Xishus could entirely explain it.
[Please complete the interviewer’s problem, or you’ll be eliminated.]
Wen Xishu’s strategy was quite simple:
"What is this? What’s the answer? How do you calculate it? I don’t know?"
After saying that, Wen Xishu tentatively said a number:
"77?"
No matter what, Wen Xishu ensured his tone was inquiring, as if he genuinely didn’t know.
The interviewer was taken aback. In their program, they had anticipated this possibility, so the problem was designed to be very simple.
Yet, they clearly underestimated Wen Xishu’s audacity. You dare say you can’t solve this?
Wen Xishu smiled at the interviewer.
Considering the previous actions of 007 and 045, Wen Xishu had figured out the meaning of that sentence.
The task description included this sentence— the interview is not the focal point.
The focus is on making it seem like an interview. Also, completing the interviewer’s problem doesn’t necessarily have to be accurate; the key is completion.
However, the interviewer didn’t give up and said:
"Please explain the fundamental integrity of a math teacher."
[Please complete the interviewer’s problem, or you’ll be eliminated.]
Wen Xishu resorted to his old strategy:
"Does this also require integrity? Is it not accepting gift money from students’ parents?"
Don’t ask me, I don’t know either. If you ask me, I’ll throw a question back at you.
Under such rhetoric, Wen Xishu quickly completed his challenge.
At this time, the other 045, Blue Star version Wen Xishu had already started celebrating:
"Buddy, did you guess the content over your head?"
[Interview over.]
[Universe 045 Wen Xishu successfully advanced.]
Until seeing this message appear, Wen Xishu left the seat, slowly stood up, and said:
"Yes."
said:
"The process of the interview is difficult without explanation, right? How did you manage it?"
Since Wen Xishu had advanced, 045 Wen Xishu brought up Wen Xishu’s keyword without facing any punishment.
"It wasn’t difficult. The process of completing the interviewer’s problem is not restricted. The first round is just a warm-up to familiarize all Wen Xishus with the setting."
"The second round is likely to be the real start."
Wen Xishu observed his surroundings and clearly felt that versions 001 and 007 of himself had withdrawn their gaze on him.
The gender-swapped version 022 of Wen Xishu had already cleared the stage.
Additionally, the non-human form, nearly three-meter-tall version 003 of Wen Xishu also passed.
Version 039’s edgy Wen Xishu, however, failed.
Logically, the basketball-throwing of the Jiahao version of Wen Xishu is hard to trigger.
But he was interviewed as a trainee.
For the version of Wen Xishu with this character, it’s hard not to pay tribute to a certain venerable ancestor in the entertainment industry.
When he made that final basketball shot, he thought he’d earn applause; instead, it was the interviewer’s achievement.
Some behaviors are hard to trigger, hence inherently difficult to die. But because they’re hard to trigger, even the doer might not realize it.
In a sense, the difficulty is actually constant.
Most Wen Xishus were competent, guessing their possible interview words through the interviewer’s questions.
In this round, the original plan was to eliminate 25 people, but ultimately, when the last person also successfully advanced—
Out of a hundred Wen Xishus, ninety remained. In the interview process, nine were eliminated. And one was the drunken Wen Xishu, killed by version 001.
When this result truly appeared, Wen Xishu recalled how the drunkard gave him one last look before dying...
Suddenly, he felt there might be something fishy here.
But he didn’t have time to think carefully.
Because a new prompt appeared.
[The next round of challenges will begin in one hour, with ten minutes remaining in the square time. Within these ten minutes, you can choose new roommates or choose roommates from the previous round. Next, with mutual consent, you can form roommate pairs and then return to the rest area to wait.]
The game ends, naturally requiring a return from the game area to the rest area.
