You and your friend play a game on a $ 7 \times 7$ grid of buckets. Your friend chooses $5$ “lucky” buckets by marking an “$X$” on the bottom that you cannot see. However, he tells you that they either form a vertical, or horizontal line of length $5$. To clarify, he will select either of the following sets of buckets:
either $\{(a, b),(a, b + 1),(a, b + 2),(a, b + 3),(a, b + 4)\}$,
or $\{(b, a),(b + 1, a),(b + 2, a),(b + 3, a),(b + 4, a)\}$,
with $1\le a \le 7$, and $1 \le b \le 3$. Your friend lets you pick up at most $n$ buckets, and you win if one of the buckets you picked was a “lucky” bucket. What is the minimum possible value of $n$ such that, if you pick your buckets optimally, you can guarantee that at least one is “lucky”?
