"Number 17 is not an option," I said. "The correct choices are the other two."
Zhou Yiqiang couldn't wait and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's get on the one we find pleasing."
"Wait," Sun Huawen stopped Zhou Yiqiang. "I understand."
"Understand what?"
"Bus number 16 and 18, only one of them is correct. Even if we board the wrong bus, we'll still die."
【Once upon a time, there were three brothers standing in a line. The middle brother died, and the brothers on either side laughed happily. The middle brother was unhappy, so he bumped into another brother and killed him. One brother ran away.】
"Bus number 17 is the middle brother?!" I asked Sun Huawen.
"Seems like it," he replied.
"So which one do we get on?"
"We don't have enough information, I don't know either."
Zhou Yiqiang regretfully said, "If only I had gone to the restroom a few more times."
"It's useless. I ran eighteen trips in a day, and no one spoke. It's already a miracle that we've made it this far."
Sun Huawen nodded. "Gu Tang was right. From now on, it's all up to fate. I'll choose bus number 16."
Sun Huawen and Tao Ran chose bus number 16, while Zhou Yiqiang and I chose bus number 18.
I chuckled bitterly. "Well, at least two of us have a chance to survive."
"Not necessarily. If the person in the restroom deceived us, we'll all be doomed," Tao Ran said with a smile.
"Oh, get lost. You're so unlucky. If you have the fortune to survive, you better watch your mouth, change your ways, and start anew. Otherwise, someone will eventually lose patience and want to slap you," Zhou Yiqiang jokingly kicked Tao Ran.
"Okay, okay. Who knows, maybe all of us will make it. After all, you said the brother question is a misleading option," Tao Ran replied.
And so, we boarded the respective buses.
At 5 AM, the bus started.
Sun Huawen sent a message in the neutral group: Let's get some sleep. If we fall asleep, we'll be more relaxed, regardless of life or death.
Me: Alright, take care.
Tao Ran: Alright, take care.
Zhou Yiqiang: Alright, take care.
