Number theory Difficulty 5.5 AIME, harder Find the answer

Example 5 Take m1=3,m2=4,m=m1m2=12m_{1}=3, m_{2}=4, m=m_{1} m_{2}=12. Then take
xi(1)=i,1i6;x1(2)=0,x2(2)=2x_{i}^{(1)}=i, 1 \leqslant i \leqslant 6 ; \quad x_{1}^{(2)}=0, x_{2}^{(2)}=2

It is not difficult to calculate that xi(1)+3xj(2)(1i6,1j2)x_{i}^{(1)}+3 x_{j}^{(2)}(1 \leqslant i \leqslant 6,1 \leqslant j \leqslant 2) is a complete residue system modulo 12.

A number or a short expression. Spacing and $ signs are ignored.
