Tokyo Wingman King

Chapter 84. 81. Tokyo Bay Cruise and Problem Solvers Asama

Everyone received a service text message on their mobile phones.

[This time, the June monthly test victory group cruise of Yinghe Academy, the first round of task rules are as follows:
The collection point for this task is - Banquet Hall No. [-] of No. [-] Will;

The mission location is - the whole ship of Fuji Will;

The task is to solve puzzles in a limited time, which are divided into four difficulty levels: A, B, C, and D. The higher the difficulty level, the greater the chance of obtaining high-quality rewards after successfully solving the puzzles;

The number of missions for each level of difficulty is limited, 50 tasks for Class A, 100 for Class B, 100 for Class C, and 50 for Class D. Those who arrive at the task collection point first will choose the task first;

The deadline for the task is 11:55. If the time limit is exceeded, it will be automatically judged as a failure. The loser will receive the lowest-grade room and a D-class lunch coupon by default;

Participants who exchange tasks or task rewards will be disqualified from participating in all subsequent activities;
The task topics are all formulated by the leading group of the winning group;

The final interpretation right of this task belongs to the Student Union of Toyo Yinghe College. 】

Asama's first reaction when she saw this text message was,

Does Konoe Chiyo want to use this task to humiliate the students who won the monthly test in June?
But solving puzzles doesn't mean that the better your grades, the better you are at it.

Yinghe Academy's monthly test is a systematic test of academic ability, and it is not as easy to fool as the door in Ravenclaw in the Harry Potter novels.

He took out the map of the big ship from his pocket, and opened it to find the location of the No. [-] banquet hall.

Luckily, it's on 6F.

Today, in the 10-story building of the white sea fortress,
The scenery on the upper level is occupied by grade 3, the entertainment facilities on the lower level are occupied by grade 2, and the boring middle layer on the 4th to 7th floors happens to be where Asama Futami and the others are.

When Asama, Futami, and Fukasawa arrived at the mission collection location, there were still 17 missions that had difficulty level A that had not been claimed.

Nine class guides and more than a dozen staff members on the cruise ship maintained order.

Sakuragi looked at the three of them with a smile, but did not speak.

A beautiful staff member in a bunny girl costume explained the details of the mission to Asama again.

After the three of them deposited their luggage, they lined up and handed in their mobile phones one by one. There were about 30 people in the No. [-] banquet hall waiting to receive the task.

Asama they ranked 10th to 12th.

All the people in front choose A, and all three of them have the leeway to choose A.

There was a sudden commotion outside the banquet hall.

"Have you heard?"

"what?"

"Class K of the first year and class R of the third year blocked the passages in several directions to the banquet hall, and only let people in their class and those who received the task ahead. Others have to wait for half an hour before they can come in."

"It's too exaggerated! Will the students ignore it?"

"Didn't you see that the teachers didn't respond?"

Asama was speechless for a while. Class K. Yasaka Seiichiro seems to be a person who is very good at organizing things.

His monthly test results this time seem to be the 8th in his grade and the first in class K.

Sure enough, just because Class A Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon should not underestimate Yinghe and the others.

The three of them walked to the big table in the hotel where four large boxes were placed.

Each large box is marked with a letter and a counter is placed next to it.

"Mr. Jingshui, you choose first."

"Asama-kun, you choose first."

Both Futami and Fukasawa voluntarily gave up their positions, letting Asama choose first.

"Yuehai, do you like sweet food or salty food?"

"It's sweet."

Asama chose the task of difficulty C, and pulled out a red and white square envelope with the emblem of the student union printed on it from the box.

While Futami and Fukasawa were speechless for a while, Asama said lightly:
"Let's go out and see what the mission puzzle is."

Futami also chose a C, not for anything else, eating with Asama is the most important option.

Fukasawa originally wanted to choose A, but when the previous two people who were better at reading than her both chose C, she retreated and chose the task of B-level difficulty.

Passing through the blockade like a forest of muscles set up by Class R in the third year at the east gate of the banquet hall, under Fukasawa's suggestion, the three of them returned to the golf putting practice area just now.

It's already 10:42, according to the time limit for handing in the task before 11:55, there is still more than an hour to solve the puzzle, but the other people who were delayed by the 1st-year K class and the 3rd-year R class may only have half an hour. Many hours of task time.

I don't understand why Sakuragi and the others didn't come out to stop them.

This kind of fierce and unscrupulous competition is not common in the free and happy Yinghe.

In the task of embodying the supremacy of strength led by Konoe, is it understandable in the eyes of the teachers to have more episodes embodying "collectiveness"?

Compared with the sea breeze on the deck, Asama enjoys the cold air of the air conditioner and the air treated by the air purification equipment and aromatherapy.

The sun is getting a headache, and the ultraviolet rays at sea seem to be stronger.

Asama felt her skin itching slightly, so she stood against the shadow.

As an ordinary student with 66 students in the three monthly tests, Asama is not confident in his intelligence. After all, he is just an [in hindsight], A is not interested in challenging, so what if he gets the presidential suite?
Anyway, it doesn't make any difference to him to choose B, C, or D, and he can make do with instant noodles once in a while.

Solving the puzzle within the scope of ability can maintain the inner dignity of the lonely person.

He took out the envelope from his pocket and opened it. The number "C-6" was written in bold black letters on the folded hard cardboard.

Open the cardboard, and the puzzles inside come into view.

Futami and Fukasawa poked their heads from left to right, looking at the information on the cardboard.

[The first half represents the wealth and luxury of the king, the luxury and comfort of the ruler of the world. 】

[The second half shows the other side of man, observe him, that is the king of the sea. 】

【Aha!The combination of the two will change everything! 】

[The rights and freedoms that men flaunt, vanish into thin air. 】

[The lords of the land and the sea bow their heads. 】

【Lovely person, you are the proud ruler. 】

The three stared at the topic in silence for a while.

"Is this a puzzle with C-level difficulty?"

Fukasawa Yuki, who was at a loss, regretted taking the B-level difficulty task.

"It feels a little familiar."

Erjian bit her lip lightly, thinking about this sentence.

Asama was a little dumbfounded for a while, he had also seen this sentence.

The reason why I remember it clearly is because in the novel where this sentence appears, the heroine's hobby is to be someone else's matchmaker.

The point is, she is still a countryman.

It’s impossible not to remember this kind of colleagues, even if it’s fictional.

"In the puzzle in Jane Austen's Emma, ​​court represents the palace, country, and land, and ship represents the ship, emotion, and ocean.

But the word courtship combined represents courtship and marriage proposal.

Since the answer to the mystery is courtship, these are probably the most noteworthy places on this ship. "

Asama opened the map of Fuji Will, pointed to several places,
"If it's a prop ring, then it's a jewelry store on the commercial street on the first floor. If it's a wedding venue, then it's two banquet halls that can hold weddings. The No. [-] banquet hall has been requisitioned, so there is a high probability that it will be the No. [-] banquet hall. If not, you can consider going to the No. [-] banquet hall to find it. The third one is the library, find this book."

Fukasawa looked at Asama with admiration, and added,
"Why not maybe the prow? It was so romantic in the Titanic?"

If I recall correctly, Jack didn't propose to Ruth during the bow hug, did he?
Asama shook her head,

"Generally, what goes beyond the puzzle is noise."

Futami looked at Asama with sparkling eyes,

"Then Shizu-san can start now? There will be extra rewards for the top 10!"

Asama shook her head, and said to Futami,

"Let's look at your puzzle again."

Er Jian opened his envelope.Puzzle number C-26, open the cardboard.

【The suffering of sobriety】

【Boots Soaked in the Sea】

【The direction of dividing the sea】

【Shadow of Reflection】

"Asama-sama, what does this mean?"

Asama gave Fukasawa a sideways glance, can't he use his brain?

The question of second sight has more gold content,

"Mr. Jingshui, divide the sea, do you mean Moses divided the sea and left Egypt?"

"Probably yes."

"Then the direction of dividing the sea refers to the east?"

"Moses took people to Canaan on the east side of Egypt, but the direction of dividing the sea is theoretically north-south."

"But if it is north-south, isn't it pointless?"

After thinking about it for a while,
"That's right. I feel that these four should be seen together. The reflection, probably refers to water, glass or mirror. The combination of the boots soaked in the sea and the suffering of sobriety is easier to guess."

It's a pity that Asama was silent for a while, the two girls didn't answer the conversation, they were just waiting for him to announce the answer.

Asama unfolded the map again and continued,
"Boots soaked in the Mediterranean, do you know which country it is?"

"Italy!" X2
"What sobering, bitter thing is there in Italy?"

"Is espresso right?"

Asama nodded,
"So, there are only two places to drink coffee on the entire ship, one is Starbucks and the other is an Italian coffee shop. The location is very clear. I think the last two sentences should be a clue to further describe the location of the answer inside the coffee shop."

"The window or mirror on the east side of the cafe?"

Asama gave Futami a thumbs up, and the girl responded with a smug smile.

Futami's smile was the cleanest Asama had ever seen, with an unusual sense of purity.

Quickly coughed, looked at Fukasawa, Futami also followed,
"Xuejiang, we have roughly the answer to the mystery. Why don't you show it to Mr. Shishui, so you can give me advice?"

Fukasawa breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I'm saved. The C level alone is so troublesome. I feel like I can't complete the B level. It's a pity that I can't exchange rewards for Asama-kun."

Asama shrugged,

"I can't guarantee that it will be solved."

Fukasawa took a look at Fukami, then folded his hands together in a gesture of praying to Asama,
"Aren't the two C-level tasks just a matter of minutes for Asama-kun? Don't be humble anymore. I thank you, the god of wisdom first."

The three looked at the puzzle.

[When I say it, the first sound is the past as soon as it is uttered. 】

[When I say it, I break it. 】

[When I say it, I create its opposite. 】

[Cut off their heads one by one, and a new legend is being born. 】

Seeing this topic, Asama secretly sighed with luck.

If you haven't read Szymborska, you may have to think hard for a long time.

When the future is spoken, the "future" becomes the past.

When silence is spoken, "silence" is broken.

When nothing is said, being is born in "nothing".

So since "Wei Ji Wu" has no meaning, the [FNS] composed of "future", "silent" and "nothing" in English is the thing about the legend.

For a while, Asama couldn't think of the relationship between this thing and the cruise ship, but told Fukasawa the clues that had been released.

The three of them checked the time, it was 10:53.

It is equivalent to Asama only taking 11 minutes to solve 2 and a half puzzles.

Er Jian said with pride and a little excitement,
"Mr. Shizumi, let's find out the answer to the mystery together~ I think we are expected to be in the top 10~"

But saw Asama shook his head,
"Let's rest for a while. There is not much need to compete for the top 10."

As soon as the voice fell, the cruise ship announced a hissing sound.

[This puzzle-solving task, the first completer, the first A-level task completer, Class A of the first year, Konoe Chiyo] X3
There is a feeling that the examiner joined the team of candidates and won the first place.

Asama even suspected that the puzzle he got was arranged by Konoe Chiyo.

The luck in the eyes of lower animals may be the charity bestowed by higher-dimensional creatures.

When raising ants in the past, I had this feeling of the creator.

Apparently, Konoe Chiyo is enjoying this sense of manipulation.

"Miss Jinwei's family is really amazing."

Fukasawa Yuki felt that the gap between her family and the Miyukyoin family was almost the same as the gap between the Miyukyoin family and the Konoe family.

A real nobleman cannot be envied. To her, there is only a sense of oppression.

Asama didn't think that the puzzle solvers were so good.

Solving the puzzle is too much luck.

In China, there is a riddle of "Boundless Falling Trees and Xiao Xiaoxia", and the answer to the riddle is the word "日".

Most of the people who uncovered the mystery did not know the cause and effect.

This mystery is first associated with "Xiao Xiaoxia" to the names of Xiao Daocheng and Xiao Yan, the two emperors of the Five Dynasties of Qi and Liang. To "wood" is a "day".

There are too many riddles in this world that only the person who made the question understands.

So Asama feels that solving puzzles is not based on intelligence, but on knowledge reserves and luck.

Fukasawa Yuki imitated Asama and Futami, sitting on the carpet near the wall of the deck, looking at the clouds in the distant sky.

The sun was on their right, casting plenty of light and heat.

The sun at around 11:[-] in the northern hemisphere is roughly due south by east, so it can be judged that Fuji Will is sailing due south.

The cruise ship with a speed of 22 knots has already sailed out of Tokyo Port.

On the side of deck 6 where Asama and the others are located, you can see the distant shadow of Futtsu City.

The three of them watched the distance quietly for 30-2 minutes while blowing the sea breeze with a temperature of about 3 degrees.

Maybe swimming or at night, the wind will be more comfortable.

Asama looked at the dazed Fukasawa and asked,

"Fukasawa, let's go back to the topic that was interrupted earlier. How did the Imperial Palace reject you at that time, and how did you answer it?"

Fukasawa stood up suddenly, patted the skirt that was sitting on the carpet just now, and smiled at Asama,

"Let's go to Erjian's coffee shop and have a drink and chat."

　Thanks to [Starry Moon] [Fantasy December] [Hey Hey Slightly Daily] bosses for their rewards.

　　The update time returns to the underworld, I believe it will be earlier tomorrow.

　　Thank you bosses for your support
