There are \(19\) aliens on the planet of Cricks and Goops standing in a circle. Each of them asks the following question “Do I have a Crick standing next to me on both sides?" Then one of them asks you in private “Is \(57\) a prime number?" How many Cricks were actually in the circle?

Recall that these aliens can only ask questions. Cricks can only ask questions to which the answer is yes, Goops can only ask questions to which the answer is no.
