Chapter 377 Card Search
Xia Shou reorganized the hotel rules in his mind and determined the escape conditions.
To leave the hotel safely, one needs to collect a savings card with a value of 10,000 yuan. Staying in the room requires room card time, which also requires a savings card to purchase.
At the beginning, everyone's room card stay time is 24 hours.
"You seven people have stayed for ten days. Have you purchased the stay time?" Xia Shou asked.
Li Ming shook his head: "No, sometimes we all leave the room, and the time we save is scattered, and finally we stay for ten days.
If you want to buy check-in time, you must go to the first floor to process it. The savings card I have is 500 yuan, and I just bought one hour in the lobby."
Xia Shou thought for a while and asked: "How long will it take to collect 500 yuan?"
"It depends on luck. 500 yuan is the largest denomination. You may find a savings card in ten rooms, and it is usually 100 yuan.
500 yuan, you may not find one even if you search for several hours.
We have calculated before that on average, each person can only find 100 yuan if he goes out for an hour.
Unless you are very lucky, you will have to search outside for 20 hours to collect 2,000 yuan to buy four hours of accommodation time.
Search for 20 hours, sleep for four hours, and you can't save anything at all."
At the end, Li Ming couldn't help laughing.
This statistical result will be ridiculous to anyone who hears it.
However, from Li Ming's description so far, Xia Shou also analyzed the correct rule for surviving in this hotel with high cost performance, that is, multiple people living in one room.
Li Ming and his companions should all live in one room, saving the time consumption of room cards to the greatest extent. Otherwise, with their efficiency in finding savings cards, they would never be able to support ten days.
If we calculate purely from a mathematical point of view, one hundred people living in one room only need to consume 24 hours of check-in time a day, and one hundred people take turns to go out to find cards, each person sleeps for eight hours, and sixteen hours are used for searching, then 160,000 yuan can be saved in one day.
But even so, 160,000 yuan can only allow sixteen out of a hundred people to escape from the hotel.
And this is a very extreme example. In reality, one room cannot accommodate one hundred people, and one floor cannot allow one hundred people to search for a day. The stock of savings cards in the entire hotel should be very limited.
Xia Shou took a breath lightly. The person who designed this rule is really vicious.
Of course, in this movie, this design can be called exquisite.
One room, no limit on the number of people staying, clearly encourages multiple people to live together.
But even if multiple people work together to collect cards, they can't save enough for everyone to leave together, so there is only one result in the end.
Survivors will live together in groups at the beginning to accumulate the first pot of gold with the highest efficiency.
When they save enough money for one person to leave, they will be suspicious of each other, because this efficiency makes it clear that it is impossible for everyone to go out. The best way is to kill others and plunder the fruits of common labor!
Ten thousand yuan alone may be able to maintain the stability of a team, but when the amount reaches a certain level, the group will split into small groups in private.
Such rules are destined to make the survivors' enemies not only monsters and butchers, but other survivors are also potential enemies.
Xia Shou calculated that the amount they needed for all of them to leave was as high as 40,000!
And the room costs 500 yuan per hour, which is ridiculously expensive. Xia Shou doesn't want to live there anymore.
The most urgent task is to reunite with Su Yue and Wei Yu. As for Brother Bai, he should be able to protect himself.
"Let's look for the card and the person at the same time. Do you know which floors have not been searched yet?" Xia Shou asked.
Li Ming shook his head: "I don't know, but no one cleans the room here, so if the furnishings in the room are messy, it is likely that someone has been here."
Xia Shou nodded: "Then we will start from the second floor and search up one floor at a time, but before we start, you need to deal with your hand."
Li Ming was stunned, looked at his broken arm, and shook his head: "It's okay, it hasn't bled for a long time, and it doesn't hurt much now."
Li Ming paused, and the stranger he met with his belly torn open for more than half, but still ran with them for a whole morning before dying, appeared in his mind, and added: "In this hotel... people don't seem to die easily."
"I'm not going to bandage your wound, I'm going to give you an arm." Xia Shou said coldly, "It may be a little painful, just bear it later."
Fifteen minutes later, Li Ming had a new arm.
To be honest, during the process of installing the arm, Li Ming even felt that Xia Shou had deceived him, and Xia Shou might be a butcher.
His body was pressed tightly by those transparent palms, unable to move at all. Then the paranormal detective, like a factory screwdriver, put the rusty iron bracket against the cut surface of his wound and screwed in the screws.
In a few minutes, he fainted several times.
"How is it?" Xia Shou asked.
Li Ming's face was pale, and he stared at his new arm with sweat on his forehead, trying to move it.
Incredible!
Such a simple mechanical structure can be manipulated by him freely, and there is a special tactile feedback. It's a pity that the palm of this prosthetic hand is a circular saw. It would be better if it had five fingers.
"Let's go if it can move. We have to be more efficient."
"Okay!" Li Ming nodded vigorously. He suddenly felt that there might be hope if he followed this person.
What happened half an hour later further proved Li Ming's judgment.
The card collection operation began. Xia Shou brought his new followers to the second floor and searched the guest rooms one by one. Li Ming wanted to split up to help Xia Shou, but Xia Shou said it was unnecessary.
It turned out that it was indeed unnecessary. When Xia Shou opened the first guest room, Li Ming knew within 30 seconds that he had followed the right person!
The moment Xia Shou walked into the guest room, more than a dozen pairs of transparent ghost hands began to search in a division of labor. All the drawers of the wardrobe were opened in an orderly manner, and the books on the bookshelf were lifted up to the air one by one to turn the pages. Even if the savings card was sandwiched in the book, it would not be missed.
The bed sheets and quilts were lifted, the quilt cover was opened, and a savings card was searched out and handed to Xia Shou.
It was a denomination of 100 yuan.
"Master Xia Shou, there is no more." Alice said respectfully.
"Next room."
Xia Shou turned and left, and Li Ming immediately followed with a dazed expression.
How long has it been since entering the door? Do you have two minutes?
They can search at most ten rooms an hour, and it is still a very rough search. At most, they can turn over the quilt, pull the drawer, and look under the bed. How can they be as meticulous as this ghost sister.
This is too strong!
If you follow this big brother, you can search at least thirty rooms in an hour. If you calculate it by average, it will be three hundred yuan!
Xia Shou walked quickly to the second room and said to Li Ming when he opened the door: "From now on, don't leave my side. You just need to remember the route to the elevator. I will do the card search."
"Yes!" Li Ming nodded heavily, his body shaking with excitement.
The desire to survive that had long been extinguished was burning again at this moment.
Xia Shou looked calm. While watching Alice's carpet search, his brain was also using movie knowledge to analyze the current situation.
He never forgot the words that the group of movie experts repeatedly emphasized hundreds of times-
"You must remember that you are making a movie! You are making a great movie! No matter how bad things are, you must look at it with the audience's thinking! The same is true in reverse!"
