The Crow Man flew upwards for a while, about five minutes, before slowly stopping.

Lin Yu felt that he was put down steadily.

The ground beneath my feet seemed to be made of wooden boards, and it creaked when I stepped on it.

But Lin Yu was not too sure.

The reason why I was unsure was because this room was pitch black compared to the first pure white pastel room.

Lin Yu lowered his head and could not see the black ground clearly.

There were only two black candles on the two candlesticks in front, barely illuminating the surrounding space.

On both sides of Lin Yu, the other four players were also adapting to the darkness.

Soon, Uncle Tie, who was the first to adapt to the darkness, spoke.

"Wait...where are the Crow Men?"

Everyone then noticed that the Crow Man who was the examiner was missing.

Its entire body was covered with jet-black feathers, but in this dark room, they were naturally completely invisible.

Number Eight was a bit flustered. "Ah, what should I do... The examiner is gone? Are we going to figure this out on our own?"

And at this moment, the very distinctive hoarse and overlapping voices of the Crow Man rang out.

"Haha, welcome everyone to the second room. This room still has two 'reward and punishment problems' and one 'decision problem'."

The Crow Man's voice echoed through the room.

"Haha, in this room, asking me a 'question' will be replaced by asking a question to a specific creature, and there will be a limit on the number of times you can ask questions, so... good luck."

As the Crow Man finished speaking, the sound of flapping wings was heard in the air.

Then, two black crows landed on the candlesticks on the left and right.

As the two crows landed, the candles seemed to glow brighter, illuminating the left and right sides of the candlestick.

In the middle and on both sides of the two candlesticks, there are three wobbly drawbridges.

The Crow Man's voice rang out again.

"Gaga! Of these three bridges, only one will allow you to reach the other side safely... The other two will suddenly collapse when you reach the middle, sending you plummeting into the endless void."

"Quack! Before you are two great gods transformed into crow clones. One crow represents 'truth', and the other crow represents 'illusion'."

"Haha, 'Reality' only speaks the truth, and 'Falsehood' only speaks lies. And both of them can only answer 'yes' questions."

"You have two chances to ask them questions to decide on your final planned route."

After the Crow Man finished speaking, he fell into silence.

This time, Number Eight became excited after hearing this: "I've heard something similar before. All I have to do is ask one of the crows what the other crow would say if I said the bridge was safe, and then I'll get the answer!"

"If we asked the 'true' crow, and the bridge happened to be safe, it would naturally answer 'no' - because that is what a lying crow would answer; similarly, if the bridge was not safe, it would answer 'yes'!"

"But similarly—if we ask the 'false' crow, if the bridge is safe, the truthful answer would be 'yes,' so it would lie and answer 'no'; and if the bridge is unsafe, it would answer 'yes!'"

"So no matter which one we ask, the result is the same!"

April looked at him in surprise: "You actually thought of this."

Number Eight said somewhat sheepishly, "I just saw it in a magazine before... Since there are three bridges, two questions are just right."

Uncle Tie also nodded: "If we're lucky, maybe one question can confirm it!"

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

No, this question...is not that simple.

But he said nothing.

Because Lin Yu has realized one thing - what is the difference between the second room and the first room.

Among the crowd, Buwang also remained silent.

Number Eight excitedly walked up to the crow on the left and asked.

"Crow, if I ask another crow if the bridge on the far left is safe, will the other crow answer 'yes' or 'no'?"

But the crow on the left didn't speak.

Number 8 is a little strange.

"Huh? Why don't you answer?"

April and Uncle Tie also looked at each other.

"Did that Crow Man deceive us?"

"Or is it stuck?"

Lin Yu, unable to bear it any longer, sighed and reminded him, "Because this isn't a 'yes' or 'no' question... You need to regulate your questioning."

"If I ask another crow if the leftmost bridge is safe, will it answer yes?"

Lin Yu said in a low voice.

Number Eight suddenly understood.

"So that's how it is, haha." Number Eight scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Ahem, I was careless. Sorry."

At the same time, Number Eight was also a little annoyed.

The previous room was almost Lin Yu's home turf.

When he arrived at the second room, he finally heard that he knew the solution to the first question. He wanted to show off in front of everyone, especially his girlfriend "April", but he didn't expect that there was a flaw in the way he asked the question.

But fortunately it’s not a big problem!

Number Eight raised his head again, looked at the crow on the far left, cleared his throat, and asked the same question again using Lin Yu's "method of questioning".

"If I ask another crow if the leftmost bridge is safe, will it answer yes?"

And this time, the crow on the left finally spoke.

Its answer is...

"Goo."

The utterance of this syllable instantly broke down No. 8's defense.

“‘Gu’… What the hell is that?!”

He cried out in despair.

Uncle Tie and April on the side also looked at each other in confusion.

"Is 'coo' the answer?"

April asked in disbelief.

In the darkness, Buwang, who had remained silent all this time, burst into laughter.

"Ahahahaha, after all, that crow man never said from the beginning that these two things can answer 'yes' and 'no'... They are crows after all!"

He slapped his thigh and laughed.

Number Eight was a little anxious: "Then what do you say we should do?"

Buhui waved his hand in the darkness: "I don't know... but I think that with one question left, we can hand it over to Jiushui."

"Brother Jiushui should have known from the beginning that these two crows are not very good at speaking 'human language'."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu looked at Buwang in surprise.

Although he did guess it at the beginning, Lin Yu was still a little curious.

"How did you know I guessed it?"

"Because when you were standardizing Number Eight's question, you ended by saying 'will you give a positive answer?'... Plus, Brother Jiushui, you're very smart, so I concluded that even I had a vague guess, so you couldn't have failed to guess it."

He said with a happy smile.

"And I believe you should have thought of a way to break the deadlock, right, Brother Jiushui?"

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have allowed Number Eight to ask that question just now!"
