Chapter 616: Control Variable Method!
Chen Ran ignored Yue Guanshan, but directed at the question Qiu Yinong just raised, he proceeded to answer: "Control Variable Method."
"Assume a small town, altogether having one hundred residents. Just like you said just now, they sink into a time loop and every time lose their memory."
"Assume you are a resident of the small town, and you discover there is a murderer in the small town, and the people killed by him won't appear in the next loop. What do you have to do to be able to determine who the murderer is?"
"Very simple, if it was me, I would kill people in the loops just like the murderer."
"Assume in the first time loop, one person is killed. Then apart from you, you can be certain the murderer is among the remaining 98 people."
"Assume in the second time loop, another person is killed, this probability..."
"By parity of reasoning, when in the final time loop, only you and the murderer are left."
"The key point of the Control Variable Method lies in that you must determine your final plan in the first time loop. Only this way can it ensure that you, in the subsequent loops, will proceed forward according to this plan."
Simply put, if your wish is to test into university, then even if given an opportunity to start over, you would still strive according to the goal of testing into university; deviations won't appear.
