How many?

The five people looked at each other and thought to themselves, is there even any need to say this?

Song Xiaocheng spoke first.

"Ming'er, this is too easy. There are...wait, let me take a closer look. There are seven lions in total."

Zhang Lianhai smiled and pushed him.

"Get up, Brother Xiaocheng, and let me count! Your image as a poor student has been deeply rooted in everyone's hearts. If you make a mistake in counting, it will be fatal."

Song Xiaocheng rolled his eyes, but still obediently made way for the hole.

After a moment, Zhang Lianhai said: "There are seven, one male lion, three lionesses, and three cubs..."

Su Ming looked at him, then at Wang Luxiang and others. No one else raised any objections.

seem……

The whole 2 of Clubs challenge is really simple.

Count lions.

You can count all the lions through the observation port and add them up at the end.

However, after experiencing the challenge of card A, the difficulty of card 2 must have been upgraded. Is it really that simple?

Everyone remains skeptical.

"Seven heads! Seven heads..."

Wang Luxiang thought for a while and said.

"Let's put it this way, to ensure that there are no mis-observations or omissions, and even to prevent the problem of all the lions in the courtyard moving back and forth."

"From now on, the four of us, Su Ming, Xiao Cheng, and Lian Haier, will take turns watching the hole."

"How about each of us keep watch for 6 minutes until the challenge is over?"

As he spoke, Wang Luxiang was the first to move his eyes closer.

"Anna and Xiaoxuan, you two girls don't need to observe if you can't reach it. Take a good rest after this challenge."

Upon hearing this, Anna and Song Xiaoxuan nodded helplessly.

Height is a fatal flaw.

You can't let someone carry you on their back or shoulders all the time while you stare at the observation port.

The two girls felt embarrassed to just sit there doing nothing, so they pinched their noses and cleaned up the feces and garbage under their feet.

Although we will only stay here for thirty minutes, at least we need a place to stay.

While Wang Luxiang was observing, Su Ming called Zhang Lianhai and Song Xiaocheng together and summarized.

"Let's follow Lu Xiang's arrangement. The four of us will take turns observing to make sure no lions are missed."

"According to my guess, the scene we can see in Room B should be a family from one of the five lion groups."

"In other rooms, you should be able to see a family of lions, as well as the lion king Ryan and his mate and children."

"If lions from other prides enter our observation range, we must distinguish them clearly and avoid duplicating them with those in other rooms."

"If the lion group we are observing runs to other areas, we must also remember to alert other rooms in time..."

"Ah, this... How the hell can I guarantee that I can remember it? These things all look exactly the same."

Song Xiaocheng couldn't help but complain.

Whether it is a male lion or a female lion, they look similar.

If they were running around the entire courtyard, who would be able to identify them?

Su Ming smiled bitterly: "I have to admit it even if I can't recognize it."

"We can remember their tiny features, such as the male lion, whose right eye seems to be injured. There is also a lioness that walks with a limp, who was probably injured by a trap when hunting... In any case, remember the lion group in our area so that we can distinguish lions from other places."

"Also... lions also have a strong sense of territory! I don't know if you have noticed that in the zoo, lion groups generally do not invade each other, which undoubtedly reduces the difficulty of our observation."

After hearing Su Ming's suggestion, everyone suddenly understood.

Yes!

Generally, wild beasts have a strong sense of territorial protection.

Not to mention zoos, the same is true for lion groups on the African grasslands.

The job of some male lions is to patrol their huge territory every day to prevent any wild beasts from breaking in.

if so……

The difficulty of observation will indeed be greatly reduced.

Several people nodded, and communicated the next observation method.

"Drip drip..."

At this moment, the phones on the walls on both sides rang green lights again and made a beeping sound to remind you.

Su Ming's face changed, he looked up at the timer and found that six minutes had passed.

The time for the second phone call has come.

He took a breath and saw that Wang Luxiang was still observing the hole, so he had to call Zhang Lianhai.

As for Song Xiaocheng, this unreliable guy, I really don't dare to use him at such a critical moment.

"Lian Hai! You go answer the call from the east. I'm going to answer the call from the west. The second call has begun."

As he spoke, Su Ming walked to the west wall, where a wired telephone connecting to Room C was installed.

He didn't grab it immediately because he was waiting for news from the phone call from the east side.

It's only 20 seconds in total, so it's extremely precious.

Room A + Room B must calculate the total number of lion groups in the two rooms before they can pass the message to Room C.

Zhang Lianhai also hurried to the east wall and grabbed the phone.

“Hello…Hello…Hello…”

He called three times in a row, but still no sound came from inside.

Tick, tick, tick.

Time passed by minute by minute, making Zhang Lianhai a little impatient.

"Hey Hey hey!"

"Damn it, the people in Room A didn't answer again? Speak up! What's going on over there?"

The unusual reaction made everyone in the room turn their heads to look, and their hearts began to beat fast.

Twice!

For two consecutive times, the people in Room A didn’t answer the phone!

Is it that they can't take care of it?

still is……

What happened?

Or did he deliberately want to kill the people in Room B?

"Time is running out!"

Su Ming was also extremely angry. Perhaps he never expected that such an accident would happen.

People in Room A, what on earth are you trying to do?

Seeing that the time was about to reach the seventh minute, in order not to miss the second precious opportunity to make a call, he had to grab the phone on the west wall.

"Hello?"

There was a response on the phone.

"Huh... Fuck! Man, what the hell are you doing? Why didn't you call us for so long? We thought..."

The person who answered the phone in Room C seemed to be the guy named Mais again.

He couldn't even help but swear, and he really thought that everyone in Room B was dead.

“Stop talking nonsense!”

Su Ming interrupted the other party and started counting in his mind.

"Friend, there seems to be a problem with Room A, and there has been no contact with us so far."

"Let's pass on the information about Room B first. We can see seven lions here, one male lion, three lionesses, and three cubs. How is it over there?"

"us……"

The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a second, obviously aware of the seriousness of the problem, and did not bother to ask what happened in Room A.

Mais said quickly: "We can see five lions here, one male lion, two lionesses, and three cubs..."

Before the other party finished speaking, Su Ming interrupted again.

"Okay! B+C 12 lions, my friend, you guys pass it on first. We will try to find out what happened in Room A..."

"Beep beep..."

Su Ming was also unable to finish his words. After 20 seconds, the call was automatically hung up.

He put down the phone, turned around, and looked at everyone in the room with a frown.

"Everyone, the second call is over!"

At this moment, everyone's face was gloomy and uncertain.

The loss of contact in Room A made everyone realize that this challenge was not as simple as they had imagined.
