The welcome party did not last long. After the students had finished their dinner, Principal Dippet asked Professor Dumbledore to lead the students in singing the school song.
After that, the prefects of each college took the students back to the lounge of their respective colleges.
The prefect of Ravenclaw is Frederick, who was sitting next to Qin Weijie before.
"I am your prefect, Frederick Ellman. Freshmen, follow me. Your luggage has been delivered to the lounge." Frederick paused and smiled contemptuously:
"As a Ravenclaw custom, freshmen will ask each of them to answer a question when they go to the lounge. We will not help you. There are seven freshmen in total to see your wisdom. If you can't answer it, you don't have to go back to rest tonight. room."
Qin Weijie's heart skipped a beat: "Damn it! I forgot that the Ravenclaw lounge needs to answer questions. Can I choose the house again for the Sorting Hat? I feel like I'm in debt. I'm afraid I'll have to sleep in the corridor from now on... "
Other students obviously have no intention of doing this. Except for Qin Weijie and Elena, all the freshmen are eager to give it a try.
"First of all, let me remind you that this year's questions are not simple."
Frederick Ellman glanced at the group of second-year students behind him and continued:
"I hope the students in your class won't be too useless. Last year, only three of the eight students in their class entered the lounge on the first night."
Following Frederick, the group passed through the noisy crowd, walked out of the auditorium, and climbed the marble stairs. After twisting and turning, I walked into the interior of the castle, passed the movable staircase and three towers, and then climbed up the spiral staircase with an unknown number of stairs.
Qin Weijie even felt a little dizzy when everyone finally arrived at the Ravenclaw lounge.
A door appeared in front of everyone. There was no handle or keyhole on the door. It was just an old smooth wooden door with an eagle-shaped bronze door knocker as big as a real eagle inlaid on the wooden board.
"This should be the highest place in the school besides the observatory. Fortunately, I don't have a fear of heights~" Qin Weijie thought in his mind.
Looking at the panting freshmen around him, Qin Weijie once again realized the importance of physical fitness. These guys would probably be exhausted from climbing the stairs back and forth to class every day.
Frederick: "Okay, I'm going in, you guys line up to answer the questions."
After speaking, Frederick knocked on the door. The eagle's beak immediately opened, and a gentle, musical voice sounded.
"Welcome back Frederick, do you want to answer a question?"
"As you wish my Mr. Eagle."
"Haha, come on, it has a spike for its tail, two beans for its eyes, it has wings but no hair, and it has legs but can't walk. It's an insect."
Frederick thought for a while and chuckled: "It's Dragonfly. Sir, your question is not difficult at all."
"Haha, that's because I left all the difficult problems to our freshmen..."
Click~ The door opened with a click, and Frederick walked in swaggeringly, not forgetting to smile contemptuously at the new student.
The freshmen were all eager to try, but only Elena and Qin Weijie were hiding at the back.
To be honest, Qin Weijie was sure that Ergou would be a scumbag if he were a human being.
Ergou teased Elena with a naive expression, which made Elena, who was originally extremely disappointed and sad, temporarily forget her grief.
It can be seen that Elena likes Ergou more and more.
"Er Gou, you scumbag, have you forgotten Zhou Mengyu?" Qin Weijie cursed in his heart.
I have to say that this year's Ravenclaws were pretty good. Not long after, the five people in front of them all successfully answered the questions and entered the lounge.
"You go first, ladies first~" Qin Weijie said, looking like a very gentleman.
The actual situation is that Qin Weijie found that he could not answer any of the five questions just now. Qin Weijie even felt that he had chosen the wrong college. If you can't get in tonight, ask the principal to transfer to another hospital tomorrow.
"Okay, okay." Elena said timidly, and then knocked on the door gently.
Not long after, Elena also entered the lounge. Before leaving, she whispered beside Qin Weijie: "Come on~"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your voice is so sweet, I won't really become a lolicon."
After Elena entered, Qin Weijie was still recalling Elena's timid voice.
The bronze eagle door knocker must have noticed Qin Weijie's pig-like appearance, and said sternly: "Are you going in? If not, I'm going to sleep!"
"Hua Tsai, what's your attitude!"
"What's wrong with this attitude?" Mr. Ying said forcefully, not being used to Qin Weijie at all.
"Hehehe, it's okay, it's okay, I'm just asking."
Qin Weijie was immediately frightened, and asked you if you are afraid of this. If this bronze eagle becomes a spirit and puts on small shoes for you, all the problems in the future will be extremely difficult, and you won't be able to go to school?
"Noisy, the hat is real, Ravenclaw is a symbol of wisdom, there is no need for clowns here!" Mr. Eagle cursed, and then started to ask questions:
Among the five people A, B, C, D and E, two are honest people who never lie, and the other three are liars who always lie. Each of them said something:
A: "B is a liar."
B: "C is a liar."
C: "E is a liar."
D: "A and B are both liars."
E: "Both B and C are liars."
The question is, who is the real honest person and who is the liar.
"Let me go, brother, this question of yours seems to be more difficult than before. It's very brain-consuming~"
"Answer quickly. If you can't answer, don't bother me. I want to sleep too."
After Mr. Eagle finished speaking, he lowered his head and fell asleep.
"Uh..." What else could Qin Weijie do? Of course he chose to answer the question: "Let's assume A..."
Fifteen seconds later.
Bang bang bang~
"Hey! Big brother, wake up!"
Qin Weijie looked at the eagle's face and slapped him, not giving him any face.
"No, stop fighting!! Damn guy, are you sure you have the answer?" Mr. Eagle looked at Qin Weijie in disbelief: "It's only fifteen seconds! If you dare to fool me, you won't be able to get in for a week! "
Qin Weijie smiled confidently: "A and C are honest people, while B, D, and E are all liars."
"Impossible, you answered it after only fifteen seconds? You can't be deceived, right?"
"I'm asking you to bring in the assumptions. Let's assume that ABCDE is telling the truth. You don't have to bring in all of them. You can determine the authenticity by bringing in at most three people. The logic of what honest people say can be deduced normally, while the logic of liars can be deduced normally. There’s a problem, it’s very simple.”
As Qin Weijie said this, he was secretly happy. In his previous life, he had to do a lot of logic questions in this area when he was taking public exams, public institutions exams, and teacher exams. Although it looked complicated, in fact, it was very simple as long as the logic was clear.
Of course, that was in China. If you put this kind of question in the UK, it would be hard for a bunch of foreigners not to discuss it.
After all, in addition to being a big foodie, I am also good at doing math and logic problems.
Many academic scumbags will be regarded as mathematical geniuses when they come to the UK. This is because they have no choice but to be racially gifted and unreasonable.
Mr. Eagle was obviously unhappy. None of the students recruited this year had trouble. The last question was already an extremely difficult question, but it turned out to be the fastest one. He felt like his Eagle face was being slapped. Fight.
"Go in~" Mr. Eagle said weakly.
"Thank you, big brother." Qin Weijie said, greeting Ergou: "Come on, Ergou, let's go back to sleep!"
Just as he was about to walk in, Mr. Eagle suddenly closed the door again.
"etc!"
"What?" Qin Weijie was a little confused.
"It can't go in!"
"Why?"
"I don't like dogs! Ravenclaw doesn't need such stupid animals!"
