Episode 4 Story

Twenty-two participants have gathered at the venue for the second round of the Liar Game. Nao and Akiyama also join the next challenge, known as the Minority Game.

Leronira, a dealer from the Liar Game Secretariat wearing a mask, explains the rules. In the Minority Game, a two-choice question is presented, and players vote either Yes or No. The players who choose the answer that falls into the minority group move on to the next round. During a rehearsal of the game, Nao fails to be in the minority and realizes that this game requires deceiving others, as the outcome is determined by intense psychological bargaining and reading each other's hidden intentions.

Facing a situation where no path to victory is visible, Nao becomes distraught at the fact that withdrawing from the game would result in a debt of 100 million yen. Meanwhile, Akiyama has arrived at a certain winning strategy.
