In the deep cavern, in the dim light, lay two brown-skinned men, about forty years old, named Gu Rahman. The other, a little younger, was in his early thirties, and his name was Ahmed. Gu Rahman has been in a very low mood for the past few days, and he has been feeling a strong sense of guilt since he entered this cave. As the captain of the missing Nunia Airline plane, he and his pilot, Ahmed, were forced to land on the island and have been in the dark hole ever since.

Like many other passengers, Gulrahman had thought that the hijackers would release them back after they had been hijacked for a while, but as time went on, the harsh reality shattered his dreams. All this time, Gu Rahman regretted that he had obeyed the demands of their captors and flown here. He always thought that he had brought more than 200 people here into this hellish hole, and if it weren't for the decision he had made after hesitating for a long time, these people would not have lived an inhuman life here.

When he saw the contemptuous gaze of many people, Gu Rahman's guilt became even stronger, and he tried to commit suicide several times, but was stopped by Ahmed, who was always by his side. Compared to others, the pain that Gu Rahman endured was more than a loss of freedom and a longing for his loved ones, but also a strong sense of self-blame. If I knew that this was the case, it would have been better to let them shoot down the plane, and even if they died, it would be better than living without dignity, freedom, and dogs. In the past two days, the already desperate desire for death has become stronger and stronger, and yesterday, he has begun a hunger strike.

Ahmed's heart was no less painful than that of Gulrahman. The reason why he was reluctant to commit suicide was because he still had a thought in his heart, that is, to be able to see his daughter, who may have been born but had not seen him once. As Ahmed prepares to board the plane, his wife, who is at home expecting to give birth, suddenly calls and says that the crystallization of their love is about to be born a week early. With everything ready for the flight, Ahmed could no longer take time off work to take care of his wife, so he had to let his parents take care of her.

There was no way, Ahmed could only apologize to his wife, but his wife comforted him and said that the nanny had already driven him to the hospital, and the nanny and her parents-in-law took care of her, and she and her soon-to-be-born daughter would not be in any danger. Ahmad assured his wife that he would see his wife and daughter as soon as he flew back. But he never imagined that the situation would develop like that in the future. In the beginning, Ahmed also thought that he would be able to go back and see his wife and daughter again, and he even chose a nice name for his daughter whom he had not yet met when he was bored.

It was because he was so concerned about his wife and too strong that he wanted to see his daughter that Ahmed did not think about suicide like Gu Rahman. When Gu Rahman wanted to commit suicide several times, Ahmad enlightened him, comforted him, and made him think that there was still hope, so that Gu Rahman temporarily canceled the idea of suicide, but since yesterday, no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, Gu Rahman no longer wants to eat a mouthful of steamed bread and drink a drop of water. It seems that the ancient Rahman has made up his mind to seek death, and no one in this world can change his decision!

When a person cannot influence others, he is likely to be influenced by others. Ahmed is now under the influence of Gulrahman and is beginning to despair. Because the cave has been lit with dim lights, they can't tell the difference between day and night, and in fact, day and night have no meaning to them. What is the point for those who are bent on death and those who are already desperate?

When the guard knocked on the iron door, the people in the cave knew that it was time to distribute food. Desperate to be alive, people were not as responsive to the knock as they used to be, and no one was scrambling for food. One by one, people walked to the iron gate with blank expressions, and went to pick up the poor steamed buns and water through the iron railing, and then sat on the ground mechanically, eating and drinking slowly.

Ahmed turned his head to look at Gu Rahman, who was stunned to look at the lamp, sighed, and said, "Rahman, let's eat some!" ”

Gu Rahman didn't react, his eyes still fixed on the electric lamp. Rahman sighed again, lay on the ground and did not get up.

At this time, Sun Hao walked up to them, squatted down and looked at them and said, "It's time to eat!" Seeing that neither of them responded, he said, "If you don't get it again, they will carry it back!" ”

In the days in the cave, Gu Rahman and Sun Hao have already met, and they are relatively able to talk. But this time, Gu Rahman didn't react at all to Sun Hao's words, Ahmed shook his head and said, "Sun, go by yourself, we really don't want to eat!" ”

After talking a few more times, seeing that the two still refused to move, Sun Hao walked towards the gate. When they got there, they said to the guard who gave them food, "Two people are sick and can't get up, and they asked me to help them get food." ”

The guard glanced at Sun Hao, who had a blank face, and when he picked up three steamed buns and three small bottles of water and stuffed them into Sun Hao's hand, he snorted coldly and said, "It makes no difference whether you eat or not!" ”

Sun Hao pretended not to hear anything, and walked slowly back to Gu Rahman and Ahmed, and handed them the steamed buns and water, but none of them took them. Sun Hao looked around and saw that he didn't pay attention to them. In fact, after Gu Rahman and Ahmad entered the cave, most of the people avoided them like a plague god hiding from the devil, and except for Sun Hao and a few others, no one cared for them at all. The two of them were also very self-aware, so they hid in the innermost seclusion. There was a lot of space in the burrow, and they were at least eight or nine meters away from the nearest person.

Sun Hao saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he whispered to Gu Rahman, "Do you want to go out?" ”

Gulrahman heard this, but he didn't even roll his eyes, for it seemed to him that there was really no difference between asking the question and not asking, and there was no difference between answering and not answering.
