There are no mirrors or ways to discover your own eye color.\n\nThere's a rule: if you ever figure out your own eye color, you must leave the island at midnight that day.\n\nOne day, a visitor announces to everyone: \"At least one person on this island has blue eyes.\"\n\nWhat happens? When? Why?\n\nBe precise about the logical chain of events.",
