A sequence \( a_1, a_2, \ldots \) of real numbers satisfies the following condition: for every positive integer \( k \geq 2 \), there exists a positive integer \( i < k \) such that \( a_i + a_k = k \). It is known that for some \( j \), the fractional parts of the numbers \( a_j \) and \( a_{j+1} \) are equal. Prove that for some positive integers \( x \neq y \), the equality \[ a_x - a_y = x - y \] holds.

For example, \( \{-3\} = 0 \), \( \{3.14\} = 0.14 \), and \( \{-3.14\} = 0.86 \).[/i] [i]Proposed by Mykhailo Shtandenko[/i]

The $12$ islands of the Bonanza archipelago are labeled $A,B,C,\dots,K,L$. Some of the islands are connected by bridges, as indicated in the diagram below. Tristan wants be able to walk from island to island crossing each bridge exactly once (he doesn't care if he visits a given island more than once, or whether he starts and ends on the same island). Submit a pair of unconnected islands such that if they are connected by a bridge, Tristan can accomplish his goal.
