Chapter 374: Helping Jian Yumin Win (2)

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Let’s find the treasure chests first. I’ve studied the first episode that aired. There are necessities stored with those treasure chests.”
Jian Yiling replied to Jian Yumin.
“I know… But those treasure chests… They have passwords…”
The treasure boxes were scattered all across the island. Finding them was not that difficult. However, deciphering their puzzles were.
Each treasure box had a puzzle or question. The password would be given to you by solving the question.
Furthermore, there were many different types of questions. 80% of the questions and puzzles were very difficult. In fact, some would say that they were impossible to solve.
Without the correct password, one could not open the treasure chest.
And if you couldn’t open the treasure chest, then you could only just stare at it.
20% of the treasure chests required the person to perform an action or task in front of the camera. These tasks were considered to be relatively easy.
“It’s fine. Let’s find those treasure chests,” Jian Yiling replied. She reassured Jian Yumin. Although she didn’t speak a lot, her tone was still firm.
“Okay,” Jian Yumin replied. Despite agreeing, he didn’t have the same confidence as Jian Yiling. However, since Yiling wanted to find the treasure chests, he might as well accompany her.
Around ten minutes later, Jian Yiling and Jian Yumin found their first treasure chest.
The question on this chest was a maths problem.
“Damn! Why is it such a high IQ question again? I swear the production team is intentionally torturing me!” Jian Yumin cried out. He wanted to wail as soon as he saw the question.
The comments started to ‘mercilessly’ mock Jian Yumin:
[Hahahahah, in the last episode, Minyu was tortured by a maths question. He suffered so much back then!]
[Poor boy. The feeling of not being able to open the chest when it’s right in front of you must be so unbearable! Hahahaha!]
Jian Yiling eyed the maths question in front of her. She took out a pen and paper and started to do calculations.
The maths question wasn’t that difficult. It wasn’t advanced or higher-order mathematics. However, the way the question was worded made it incredibly confusing and complicated.
It only took Jian Yiling one minute to solve the question.
Then, she looked at the last six digits of her answer. Those numbers were used to unlock the treasure chest.
The viewers who were watching the live broadcast were all stunned:
[Holy! Minyu’s sister is amazing! She solved the question within a minute! Her IQ is much better than Minyu’s. Is she actually his sister?]
[Hahahahha, the person who is asking whether she’s his sister, I’m suspecting that you’re mocking Minyu!]
[Now I seem to understand why Minyu brought his sister to the show. She’s so smart!]
And thus, the people who initially questioned Jian Yumin for bringing a weak girl like Jian Yiling to the reality show were slapped in the face.
When the chest was opened, Jian Yiling and Jian Yumin obtained a big bag of food and a clue card.
However, Jian Yiling didn’t plan to stop there. She wanted to keep on looking for another treasure chest.
Soon after, the second treasure chest was found. This time, it was a detective puzzle. The question was incredibly long. It described a murderer’s killing pattern and the murderer’s crazy habits. There were also some relevant newspapers and calendar dates that were beside the question.
Jian Yumin was about to become crazy.
“I want to talk to the director about my life…”
What the hell was this question? Was this question meant for humans?
As Jian Yumin was howling in grief, Jian Yiling was already unlocking the chest.
This time, she solved the puzzle even faster than the previous time. Furthermore, not even pen and paper was needed. She just opened the chest directly.
Jian Yumin and the viewers in the broadcast were all dumbfounded.
“Yiling, how do you know the answer?” Jian Yumin asked. This was the question that was in everyone’s mind.
And thus, Jian Yiling began to explain her thought process: “I analyzed the psychology of the murderer. He commits the crime regularly. Furthermore, every year, he kills at a specific time… … The information provided in the newspaper and notes can be used to identify the murderer’s killing patterns. You can also speculate the murderer’s identity based on the information that we are given… …The password is the murderer’s birthday.”
