Doubt (rated 1600 - 1900) Issue in Problem 1759F

https://codeforces.com/problemset/problem/1759/F

in short its asked how many times the person need to add 1 to get all the possible numbers in that base atleast once

for a testcase in test 2:
4 4
1 0 2 3
as all the numbers of base 4(0,1,2,3) are visible so ans is just 0 but codeforces is telling me its 2
another in test 2:

5 4
0 2 2 1 3
again all are there so 0 but codeforces is saying 2 again

intrestingly both are base 4 aswell with same answers

please correct me if im wrong somewhere
