In a $ 19\times 19$ board, a piece called [i]dragon[/i] moves as follows: It travels by four squares (either horizontally or vertically) and then it moves one square more in a direction perpendicular to its previous direction. It is known that, moving so, a dragon can reach every square of the board.
The [i]draconian distance[/i] between two squares is defined as the least number of moves a dragon needs to move from one square to the other.
Let $ C$ be a corner square, and $ V$ the square neighbor of $ C$ that has only a point in common with $ C$. Show that there exists a square $ X$ of the board, such that the draconian distance between $ C$ and $ X$ is greater than the draconian distance between $ C$ and $ V$.

Let $n \geq 2$ be a natural number, and let $\left( a_{1};\;a_{2};\;...;\;a_{n}\right)$ be a permutation of $\left(1;\;2;\;...;\;n\right)$. For any integer $k$ with $1 \leq k \leq n$, we place $a_k$ raisins on the position $k$ of the real number axis. [The real number axis is the $x$-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system.]
Now, we place three children A, B, C on the positions $x_A$, $x_B$, $x_C$, each of the numbers $x_A$, $x_B$, $x_C$ being an element of $\left\{1;\;2;\;...;\;n\right\}$. [It is not forbidden to place different children on the same place!]
For any $k$, the $a_k$ raisins placed on the position $k$ are equally handed out to those children whose positions are next to $k$. [So, if there is only one child lying next to $k$, then he gets the raisin. If there are two children lying next to $k$ (either both on the same position or symmetric with respect to $k$), then each of them gets one half of the raisin. Etc..]
After all raisins are distributed, a child is unhappy if he could have received more raisins than he actually has received if he had moved to another place (while the other children would rest on their places).
For which $n$ does there exist a configuration $\left( a_{1};\;a_{2};\;...;\;a_{n}\right)$ and numbers $x_A$, $x_B$, $x_C$, such that all three children are happy?
