Euhan and Minjune are playing a game. They choose a number $N$ so that they can only say integers up to $N$. Euhan starts by saying the $1$, and each player takes turns saying either $n+1$ or $4n$ (if possible), where $n$ is the last number said. The player who says $N$ wins. What is the smallest number larger than $2019$ for which Minjune has a winning strategy?

A treasure is buried under a square of an $8\times 8$ board. Under each other square is a message which indicates the minimum number of steps needed to reach the square with the treasure. Each step takes one from a square to another square sharing a common side. What is the minmum number of squares we must dig up in order to bring up the treasure for sure?
The road infrastructure in a country consists of an even number of direct roads, each of which is bidirectional. Moreover, for any two cities $X$ and $Y$, there is at most one direct road between the two of them and there exists a sequence $X = X_0, X_1, ..., X_{n - 1}, X_n = Y$ of cities such that for any $i = 0, ..., n - 1$, there exists a direct road between $X_i$ and $X_{i + 1}$.
Prove that all direct roads in this country can be oriented (i.e. each road can become a one-way road) such that each city $X$ is the starting point for an even number of direct roads.

Initially, two distinct positive integers $a$ and $b$ are written on a blackboard. At each step, Andrea picks two distinct numbers $x$ and $y$ on the blackboard and writes the number $gcd(x, y) + lcm(x, y)$ on the blackboard as well. Let $n$ be a positive integer. Prove that, regardless of the values of $a$ and $b$, Andrea can perform a finite number of steps such that a multiple of $n$ appears on the blackboard.
