Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 244 The Riddle Game

The owner approached holding a large bundle of riddles. “Is everyone prepared? I’ll begin now.

“In a bit, I will recite a riddle, and everyone should write their answers on paper. The first student to submit the correct answer will receive five points, the second will earn three points, and the third will get one point. Those who respond incorrectly will be eliminated, losing their previous correct answers, and will receive souvenirs based on the rules.

“For every five correct answers, you can earn a rabbit keychain.

“The student with the most points overall will be reported to your school and awarded extra credit. Do you all understand the game’s rules?”

“Yes, we understand.”

“Alright, let’s start the game!”

The owner randomly opened the book and read out a riddle loudly.

“It resides in a curving path, with both the front and back doors open, fearless of lions and wolves, but only scared of a small tiger. What animal is it?”

…

Violeta pondered for a moment, swiftly jotted down the answer on paper, folded it, and submitted it.

Sitting at the far end, Hattie frowned when she heard the question. Then, she raised her hand to her ear, pressing lightly before lowering her head, making it difficult for anyone to discern the subtle gesture she made.

After a short time, Hattie also wrote down her answer and turned it in.

After reviewing the answers, the owner announced, “The first student to get it right is Violeta White, the second is Hattie Ridge, and the third is Brady Singh …”

Kaylee was the fifth person to get the correct answer.

Even though she didn’t earn extra points, solving one question correctly was still an achievement.
