According to the previous plan, this ga was supposed to be a two-player team leading three others, which ans Ye Lin and Lin Sizhi, the two veteran players, would guide Zheng Chunhua, Qin Cheng, and Huang Shengjie.
However, so far neither Ye Lin nor Lin Sizhi has been encountered, so decisions have to be made independently.
Qin Cheng has always been a player with strong ideas, so Zheng Chunhua decided to take his advice.
"So, Uncle Zheng, you should know what to do next."
Zheng Chunhua thought for a mont: "As an Auditor, from the rules’ perspective, I directly control the entire Zone D’s drug distribution.
"As long as I don’t buy, specific drugs cannot land in the hands of regular players in Zone D.
"So, what I need to do next is to only purchase type C and type M drugs from sales, and try to lower the prices as much as possible, no matter what happens.
"There are two doctors in Zone D, I haven’t t the other one yet.
"I can supply drugs to him according to your requirents, thus preventing players in the entire Zone D from facing high risks due to dication."
Qin Cheng nodded: "Yes, the identity of an ’Auditor’ in this ga probably serves this purpose.
"It could even be said that as long as the four Auditors hold their ground, no matter how morally low other players sink, it won’t affect the final outco of this ga."
Zheng Chunhua’s expression was sowhat complex, and he said with so concern: "If we’re just looking at the rules... indeed, that’s the case.
"But... will things really be this simple?
"Will the Imitator allow the players to pass this easily?"
Qin Cheng nodded: "I’m also worried that there are still so hidden ways in the rules to bypass the Auditors or force them into compliance.
"But given the current situation, worrying is useless, and we can only do our best."
Zheng Chunhua looked a bit nervous.
Clearly, he didn’t expect to be assigned such an important role in the ga, with the ability to decide the fate of nearly a quarter of the players so easily and directly.
"So, what should I do with these drugs?
"Should I just give you type C and M drugs, or should I give them all to you to decide on your own?
"Although type O and F drugs have side effects, they should also be used in small amounts as prescription drugs, right?"
Qin Cheng considered for a mont: "No, just give type C and M drugs.
"Don’t give type O and F drugs, keep them all to yourself.
"Because once you distribute these drugs to the doctors, it could lead to a psychological slackening.
"You are the Auditor and the only line of defense protecting all of Zone D, not the doctors.
"Each area has two doctors, as long as one doctor starts selling oxycodone or fentanyl to patients, it bypasses the other doctor, and all patients could get hooked.
"Because patients can trade among themselves too.
"So, Uncle Zheng, type O and F drugs stop with you, don’t distribute them to anyone.
"This is the duty of the Auditor, and it’s the responsibility you must bear."
Zheng Chunhua’s expression was a bit hesitant, but after a mont of consideration, he eventually nodded: "Okay, I’ll do my best.
"So, what exactly should be the price at which we trade these drugs?"
Qin Cheng mused briefly: "Chen Guangming sold you these four types of drugs for 3000 together, which should be within the suggested retail price range for these drugs.
"According to the ga rules, if the seller fails to sell within the price range, they will lose 10% of their earnings upon leaving the ga.
"At the start of the ga, Chen Guangming probably wouldn’t willingly give up that 10% of earnings.
"Next ti you see him, be firm: only buy type M drugs, and test the suggested retail range for this drug.
"As for this ti, for type C and M drugs... I’ll give you 1800."
Zheng Chunhua was taken aback: "I thought you’d cut it straight to 1500 or so. Wouldn’t 1800 be way too high? After all, the price Chen Guangming gave likely already includes a profit margin."
Qin Cheng explained: "Directly cutting it by half isn’t stable.
"I suspect that the cost-effectiveness of type C and M drugs might be worse, in other words, they are more expensive.
"Since type O and type F drugs are highly addictive, the Imitator designing this ga must intend to achieve so special objectives through them, making them cheaper.
"So, all things considered, giving a bit more is safer.
"Of course, next ti Uncle Zheng, you can also visit another sales agent to gather information from two channels to get more accuracy."
Zheng Chunhua quickly nodded: "Alright, I understand.
"eting teammates from the sa Community in such a ga is really fortunate.
"But as a veteran player, I should have been helping you, but in the end, it turned into you helping , which makes feel a bit..."
Qin Cheng shook his head: "We’re all in one Community, we should help each other, Uncle Zheng, don’t worry about it.
"Besides, this ti it just so happened to involve my area of expertise, I might need your experience in future gas."
The eting ti for this round of the ga had ended, Qin Cheng and Zheng Chunhua completed the transaction and returned to their rooms with the special drugs they had bought.
...
Zone C.
Huang Shengjie returned to the lounge once more.
He saw Zhang Yuan coming out of his room and was instantly filled with rage, storming up to glare at him.
"You son of a bitch..."
Zhang Yuan’s expression remained calm, and he maintained a polite distance from Huang Shengjie: "Calm down, unless you want to face an instant-death penalty."
Huang Shengjie’s face was grim, but he truly had no way to deal with Zhang Yuan right now.
It was already the fourth round of the ga.
And yet Huang Shengjie still hadn’t managed to enter the consulting room.
In the first round of the ga, he offered 500 dical points but got no response;
In the second round, he worried about being ostracized by other players in the lounge if he entered the consulting room, so he didn’t apply;
In the third round, he gritted his teeth and offered 3000 dical points, but still got no response;
Before the fourth round began, Huang Shengjie made up his mind and offered 5000 dical points.
To put up the money, Huang Shengjie even spent an additional 10,000 visa points to buy 5000 dical points.
No choice now, the situation is life and death, no more thinking of saving visa ti.
In Huang Shengjie’s view, 5000 dical points should surely be enough to open the door.
Since each area has two doctors, strictly speaking, Huang Shengjie only needed to compete with the other two patients.
These two patients, one was Zhang Yuan, and the other a player who remained in the VIP room without showing up.
Normally, these two should’ve seen the doctor long ago, there’s no reason they would offer more than 5000.
Huang Shengjie wanted to see the doctor, but he couldn’t blindly bet everything, because after seeing the doctor, the doctor might continue to ask for an unreasonably high price.
He needed to keep a budget for buying drugs, and couldn’t blow it all on the ’opening fee’.
Now, even 5000 dical points hadn’t opened the consulting room door, the only reason must be that Zhang Yuan or that VIP room player had done sothing.
They likely reached so agreent with the doctor to exclude other patients.
Zhang Yuan looked at Huang Shengjie and Zhou Xiaoying: "Sorry.
"The two of you must’ve figured it out by now, right? I am indeed an Infected, and I did deceive you.
"But I had no choice, without doing so, being the only Infected, I would definitely be ostracized by you, and we couldn’t achieve any cooperation.
"Now, to express my apology to you both...
"I got so drugs from the doctor, and I’m willing to sell them to you."
Zhang Yuan said as he pulled out two white pill bottles from his pocket and showed them to the two.
