Shadow answered without thinking:

"Principle of proximity. New ᴄᴏᴍ"

"Those who are close to you migrate directly towards your country."

"We don't have many countries here. I will send letters to various shelters later to ask them to migrate to our side."

“Only by pooling resources can we respond better.”

Zhang Chu, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted:

"Is it possible that this is exactly what the conductor in the mist wants to achieve?"

After hearing Zhang Chu's words, Shadow, the warden and Anti thought of a word at the same time.

"Prisoner's Dilemma."

Lu Xiao blinked and said with a puzzled expression:

“What is the Prisoner’s Dilemma?”

This time, Shadow was not in a hurry to answer Lu Xiao's questions.

He spoke to the communicator with an extremely solemn tone:

"Anti, things are in trouble."

"We need to discuss how to deal with it later."

"It would be best if we could all come together so that we can work out how to deal with the coming crisis."

"Let's start the roundtable."

After Anti agreed to the proposal, he immediately hung up the phone.

After putting down the communicator, Shadow took a deep breath.

Judging from his expression, he seemed to be trying to calm down his inner emotions.

At this time, Lu Xiao asked his doubts again:

"Mr. Shadow, what is the prisoner's dilemma?"

Hearing this, Shadow organized his speech and said:

"Let me give you an analogy."

"The police arrested two criminals at the same time."

"Then the two prisoners were placed in different rooms for interrogation."

"The police told the two men because there was not enough evidence to charge."

"If you both plead not guilty, each will get a year in prison."

"But if they both confess, then each will get eight years in prison."

"However, as long as one of you confesses and tells all the crimes committed by the other, the one who confesses will be released."

"The one who doesn't confess will be sentenced to ten years alone."

"If it were you, what would you choose?"

Lu Xiao answered without thinking:

"Of course they don't plead guilty."

Shadow nodded and said:

"This is the choice that maximizes profits."

"But there's a point there, you can't connect to each other."

"You can only judge whether the other party is confessing by guessing."

"What to do now?"

Lu Xiao groaned, then grinned and said:

"I choose to escape from prison."

Shadow seemed to have been accustomed to Lu Xiao's way of speaking, so he didn't react much.

Instead, he continued:

"If these two prisoners were replaced by our two countries."

"Confession is exchanged for giving up resistance."

"Denial is replaced by resistance."

"A one-year sentence is exchanged for heavy casualties, and an eight-year sentence is exchanged for exposure to pollution."

"And a ten-year sentence would be exchanged for extermination."

"Replace those variables and that's what we're probably going to be facing."

The warden added:

"Until then, communications between us will also be cut off."

The jailer's pupils, who had been listening, suddenly shrank.

He said with a slightly trembling voice:

"Is this a test of our humanity?"

Shadow nodded and said solemnly:

"Yes, human nature cannot withstand such a test."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao nodded in understanding.

…………

Soon, under the organization of Anti.

A roundtable meeting was held urgently.

This time even Lu Xiao was lucky enough to attend the meeting.

Looking at the surrounding scene, Lu Xiao exclaimed "Awesome".

What comes into view are the rows of white jade stone pillars, which are like pillars supporting the sky and the earth.

The temple is very large and has many white jade pillars.

Lu Xiao even counted the number of white jade stone pillars.

There are twenty-four in total.

These twenty-four white jade stone pillars support the chaos at the top of the temple.

There are no walls around this temple, so you can see the stars twinkling outside.

In the center of the temple is a huge circular conference table.

There is a huge chair next to the conference table, with the back of the chair three meters high.

Lu Xiao appeared on one of the seats near the front.

At the head of the conference table are five taller chairs.

The chairs are six meters high and three meters wide.

It is covered with soft cushions.

Behind these five chairs is a taller, throne-like chair.

From what Lu Xiao could see, the seat was covered with dust.

It seemed like no one had sat there for a long time.

Beside Lu Xiao, Shadow patted his shoulder gently and said:

"This time you are participating in the meeting on behalf of the C03 shelter."

"I will open a private communication channel. If someone asks you a question later, I will tell you how to answer in the private channel."

Lu Xiao nodded, then looked at Shadow and said:

"Then what identity do you represent?"

Shadow chuckled and said, "I can just pick up any identity. Don't worry about it."

At this time, light beams continued to fall.

These light beams landed precisely on the seats next to the conference table.

Not long after, the director also appeared beside everyone.

His position is next to Lu Xiao.

Beyond that is Shadow, then the Warden.

Seeing Lu Xiao, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Hey, why are you here?"

"I still sit in the doctor's seat."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao first looked at the shadow on the side.

Because Shadow said just now that if someone asks him a question, Shadow will tell him how to answer in the private channel.

Shadow felt Lu Xiao's eyes. He was stunned for a moment and then said softly:

"You ask this question and you can do whatever you want."

After receiving Shadow's instructions, Lu Xiao rolled his eyes at the director and said:

"None of your business!"

The director was choked by Lu Xiao's words.

He looked at the shadow with slightly confused eyes and said:

"Mr. Shadow, have you experienced anything unpleasant?"

"Why does Lu Xiao seem to be in a bad mood?"

After hearing the director's question, Shadow held his chin and thought carefully before saying:

"Well, I did experience some unpleasant things."

Hearing this, the director immediately became interested. He looked at the shadow expectantly, waiting for the shadow's next words.

Soon, Shadow spoke slowly and said calmly:

“When I was stuck in a traffic jam, I wanted to cut in, but I was chased and scolded by the driver behind me.”

When the director heard this, his eyes instantly became dull.

As the light beam continued to fall.

Leaders from various shelters were also present at the conference.

Their expressions were roughly the same, with urgency in them.

His eyes were full of solemnity.

Then they began to skillfully set up a private channel, and brought people they were familiar with into the group chat and started discussing.

At this moment, five light pillars also appeared on the main seat.

Five old men in suits and ties appeared at the main seat.

The five of them looked at each other and then stood up at the same time.

They first took a few steps back, and then they all bowed deeply towards the leaders of the shelter sitting at the conference table.
