"Fifth Brother, isn't that contradicting yourself?" Ye Xingli frowned, "You just said that although Lee Yi was quite assertive, it's possible that someone unknowingly snuck into the basement. But now you're saying that it's improbable for someone to stealthily infiltrate the basement. These two statements are clearly conflicting!"
"They're not," Gu Junzhu explained, "I've prepared two sets of plans: one in the case that someone really did sneak into the basement, and another if no one did. Right now, even though we can't ascertain if someone breached the basement years ago, from Lee Yi's statement, we can infer that it's quite unlikely. Therefore, we can employ the second plan."
He paused, looked at Ye Xingli, and opined calmly, "In issues that solely rely on logical thinking, nobody can guarantee the accuracy of conclusions drawn from reasoning; we can only choose the more probable option, and take a gamble."
Ye Xingli anxiously asked, "What if we lose the gamble?"
