Every stitch is in place
"Hehe, no, keep guessing."
Tang Zhendong recited the nine sets of numbers that Yu Qingying had just said, but not a single one was correct. By the end, Yu Qingying couldn't even be sure which sets of numbers Tang Zhendong had actually said were her own.
Among the ten sets of numbers, only one set is correct, and the rest are nonsense that Yu Qingying made up on the spot. There were so many numbers, she couldn't remember them clearly, but it seemed like Tang Zhendong said something that left an impression on her.
"Haha, none of them are correct, congratulations, you got all the answers wrong!" Yu Qingying burst out laughing, finally able to laugh heartily after successfully teasing Tang Zhendong.
"Since those are incorrect, then 13964533899 must be your phone number, haha. " Tang Zhendong said another set of numbers and burst out laughing too.
Tang Zhendong's words made Yu Qingying look at him as if he were an alien, because this was indeed her own phone number. Had he known her phone number all along? That's why he never asked for it from her? It seemed that he had known her number all along!
If he hadn't known his number in advance, Tang Zhendong's memory would have completely exceeded Yu Qingying's expectations. To know that even Yu Qingying, who said the numbers, only remembered three or four of them, and she couldn't be sure if the rest were correct or not? However, for the three or four numbers that Yu Qingying remembered, they were completely accurate.
Is it possible that he can't remember any other numbers but just remembers the few that he remembered? Is there such a coincidence in this world?
"Can you really remember everything?" Yu Qingying's doubt was well-founded, people with such a brain were not unheard of, but they were extremely rare, as rare as encountering an alien.
"What, you doubt my intelligence or memory?" Tang Zhendong slapped his forehead and chuckled.
After a brief exclusion, Yu Qingying also confirmed that Tang Zhendong indeed remembered the ten groups of numbers she mentioned earlier. "I've always envied you for playing all day and studying so well, I'm extremely suspicious that you're actually cheating, but today I'm convinced, you absolutely don't cheat, you really have a photographic memory."
Qing Ying sincerely praised him from the bottom of her heart.
"Hehe, it's not easy to get your praise, I've been waiting for almost nine years. " Tang Zhendong also got Yu Qingying's phone number and felt relieved.
"Hey, wait a minute," Yu Qingying, who was just about to bid farewell to Tang Zhendong, suddenly remembered something. "Tell me the truth, did you already know my number?"
"Huh?" Tang Zhendong was somewhat perplexed. Hadn't the matter of the phone number been settled already? How did it get brought up again?
"You said I remembered it, how come you say I knew it in advance?"
"If you didn't know in advance, why did you say that the first nine numbers were all wrong and leave the correct number to be said last?"
As Qingying recalled Tang Zhendong's expression when he mentioned the number, it was as if he had guessed that everything said before was wrong and intentionally left the correct one at the end.
This is also what makes Yu Qingying feel most strange and puzzled.
"Speak quickly, don't try to fool me, tell the truth!" Yu Qingying's eyes widened, and those big eyes seemed to be speaking.
"Haha, I really remember it, why don't you ever believe me?" Tang Zhendong said helplessly.
"Why did you leave the correct number till last? Come on, confess and I'll let you off lightly. That's our party's policy: leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist."
As soon as Qingying mentioned our party's policy of leniency towards those who confess and severity towards those who resist, Tang Zhendong wanted to laugh. The situation he encountered in prison was clearly at odds with this national policy.
This society is indeed very strange, a good policy on the surface but in practice it's always the opposite. In reality, most people in prison believed that confessing would lead to leniency and resisting would lead to severity, so everyone confessed. However, those who didn't confess all went home for Chinese New Year, while those who confessed thoroughly like pouring beans from a bamboo tube are still serving their sentences.
This society is indeed hilarious!
Tang Zhendong looked into Yu Qingying's eyes and chose to be frank, "Alright, I'll say it. I did indeed remember the ten sets of numbers you mentioned, there's no question about that. If you ask me to recite them again now, I can still do it. So let's talk about why I put your real number at the end: The numbers you provided sounded chaotic and disorganized, and they actually were chaotic and disorganized because they didn't follow the district code of Haicheng City. In other words, the numbers you provided were all over the place. This made it easy to solve the problem. There were only three numbers that conformed to the district code of Haicheng City, so I put those three numbers at the end."
Tang Zhendong's analysis made Yu Qingying nod continuously, and she admired Tang Zhendong not only for remembering the ten sets of numbers firmly but also for his meticulous analysis. In other words, Tang Zhendong had a good brain and an extremely high IQ.
Qing Ying was eager to continue listening, but Tang Zhen Dong stopped talking, "There are three more numbers, how did you analyze them? Continue speaking."
"Afterwards, it's basically just a daze, no need to mention it, no need to mention it."
Qing Ying's eyes widened, "No way, you must say, do you want the proletariat stage to exercise dictatorship over you?"
Tang Zhendong hastened to surrender, "Alright, I'll say it, I'll say it. The last three numbers left, one is Unicom and two are Mobile numbers. I noticed that the numbers you mentioned were all Mobile, with only one Unicom number, so I boldly excluded this Unicom number first, because according to normal people's thinking, if your number is Unicom, then at least half of the numbers you mention should be Unicom numbers, which is the normal person's thinking."
"Alright, you, you actually suspect that I'm mentally unstable?" Yu Qingying clenched her small fist and was about to pounce on Tang Zhendong.
Actually, Yu Qingying didn't even realize that her own behavior had become more and more like flirting.
"Hurry up, what you just said makes sense, go on and tell me about the last two numbers, how did you rule them out?"
Tang Zhendong burst out laughing, "The last two digits were not excluded by me, but by you. You should remember that when I mentioned the first digit, I said it was a China Unicom number and asked to exclude it first. When I mentioned the eighth digit, I spoke very slowly, especially when saying the first three digits. Why? Because among the last three digits I mentioned, two of them were 139 numbers. When I said the '9' after 'three', I stared at your eyes and found that when I said 'nine', your eyes showed a hint of surprise because you were afraid I would guess your phone number. So when saying the eighth digit, I intentionally said an out-of-town mobile phone number, leaving only two local numbers, and the correct number starts with 139. Can you understand my explanation?"
Tang Zhendong's meticulous analysis made Yu Qingying's eyes widen to their largest extent in history, with a mix of shock, admiration and adoration in her eyes.
Tang Zhendong not only has an astonishing memory, but his memory is not just about rote memorization. Instead, he rapidly processes information in his mind, analyzing it meticulously and presenting it with clear logic and coherent thinking.
