The villain just dropped the most mind-blowing mathematical truth bomb and casually walked away! 🤯 It's true - prime numbers (except 2 and 3) are always exactly one away from multiples of 6. Think about it: 5 is next to 6, 7 is next to 6, 11 is next to 12, 13 is next to 12... The pattern continues forever! This is because any number can be written as 6k, 6k+1, 6k+2, 6k+3, 6k+4, or 6k+5, but 6k, 6k+2, 6k+3, and 6k+4 are always divisible by something, leaving only 6k+1 and 6k+5 as potential primes. Math nerds everywhere are simultaneously impressed and horrified that this villain just revealed one of number theory's elegant secrets before disappearing into the darkness!
