Lei was not angry, and said calmly: "Tell me about your high opinion." ”

Wei Liang smiled: "People's memories are not real, but have a strong subjective color. Unlike the camera, what the naked eye sees does not reflect the original image into the brain, but undergoes a series of complex transformations and screenings before finally forming a memory. From a certain point of view, memory is never objective, and even if we admit that we have told the truth, there are deviations from the facts. This explains why Xiao Li said that she went to the toilet once, but Huang's wife said that she never left. ”

Qiao Yongqiang heard it in a fog and didn't understand what he was going to say.

Lei asked lightly: "So?" ”

"The narrative of the five men, from which the true trajectory of more or less deviating from their confessions, is doomed to failure." Wei Liang smiled: "Because your reasoning is based on lies. ”

"And what do you have in mind?"

"Don't listen to the lengthy remarks of five people, that's a story, not a fact." Wei Liang said: "Their analysis and judgment are all based on intuition, no reason, no evidence. ”

Qiao Yongqiang laughed teasingly: "Then you sue me, what is the truth?" ”

"Interests." Wei Liang said seriously: "Memory can deceive people, language will deceive people, but interests will never deceive people." It's just there, and it's the most honest. ”

Qiao Yongqiang didn't understand and asked, "What benefits?" ”

"Since stealing money is for profit, but there is no free lunch in the world, and we also ignore one factor, which is called the cost of crime." Wei Liang smiled: "What is the cost of crime?" It's more cumbersome to explain, but in short, if I kill someone and am sentenced to death, that death penalty is the cost of my crime. Dig deeper, after I was shot, my parents lost their children, my wife was widowed, and my children had no father, which was also the cost of crime. ”

Qiao Yongqiang understood a little and said: "The confessions of the five people are true or false, and it is difficult to see the truth in the fog." But from the point of view of interests, this qiē becomes clear. ”

Wei Liang nodded and said, "This five-thousand-dollar quick money is the benefit of stealing." Let's look at the cost of crime, stealing this money, which the law defines as 'a large amount' and is punishable by up to three years in prison. Interestingly, the cost of committing a crime is not the same for the five. Let's take a look at the two store managers first, what happens if they steal money and get caught by the police? ”

Qiao Yongqiang said: "I will definitely be sentenced to a few years." ”

Wei Liang said: "The monthly salary of the store manager is less than a few thousand, more than tens of thousands, is it worth taking such a big risk for this ten thousand and a half?" ”

Qiao Yongqiang slapped his thigh and said, "It's definitely not worth it!" ”

"Yes, from the point of view of profit, the loss of stealing money far outweighs the gain, and I don't think they are thieves." Wei Liang smiled and asked, "What if Huang Kang's own family stole money?" ”

Qiao Yongqiang thought for a while and said: "That's definitely fine, take your own money, the police are too lazy to care, at most they criticize and educate." ”

Wei Liang nodded and said, "The cost of crime is close to zero. ”

Qiao Yongqiang asked: "So, who is the thief?" Huang Kang or his daughter-in-law, or Xiao Huang? ”

Wei Liang said: "First of all, if Huang Kang is guarding and stealing, it is to deceive his wife, there is no need to deceive others, let alone a few of us strangers." So if he really stole it, he would have admitted it when we interrogated him just now. But he didn't say he took the money, so it can be concluded that the thief was not him. ”

Qiao Yongqiang drew inferences and said, "According to your logic, Huang's wife is not a thief. She was stabbed twice just now, and she still didn't admit that she had taken the money, which was not an unsightly thing, and she had no motive to lie at all. ”

Wei Liang nodded and said, "Of course she is not a thief. ”

Five people, excluding four, the remaining one is clear.

Qiao Yongqiang said: "So, Xiao Huang stole the money?" ”

Wei Liang said: "I'm afraid so." ”

Lei said coldly: "I don't agree with your point of view. ”

Wei Liang smiled and said, "Please tell me what you think." ”

"You are only analyzing this qiē from a rational point of view, but too many crimes are the result of impulse," Ray said. At that time, people were irrational. ”

"I admit that what you said makes sense, but I still think that from the perspective of interests, it is closest to the truth, don't believe the words of the five people, it is just a ** array deliberately laid by Taling, which will make us fall deeper and deeper." Wei Liang smiled: "Only interests never lie." ”

Subsequently, he voted for Xiao Huang.

Lei still disagreed with his point of view, was silent for a moment, and voted for Xiao Li.

Qiao Yongqiang looked left and right, uncertain, gritted his teeth after a long time, and said, "It's Xiao Huang who stole the money!" ”

He finally chose to believe in Wei Liang.

Two votes to one, Wei Liang's side had the advantage, and Xiao Huang was chosen as the thief.

Taling's indifferent voice came.

"Mission failed."

Wei Liang's smile froze, and he blinked a little blankly.

Did you guess wrong?

Mission failure - these four cold words echoed in his mind, and it was the first time he had tasted defeat since he arrived at the Crimson Tower.

Ray was as quiet as ever, like a piece of wood, but his expression became more and more cold.

Qiao Yongqiang regretted not being at the beginning, and shouted: "I'm really a dog!" ”

Then, the qiē in their field of vision began to shatter, and the three of them returned to the Crimson Tower.

Wei Liang looked up, his eyes were full of devastation, and the shadows of Lei and Qiao Yongqiang had long gone.

He was distracted for a moment, laughed at himself, and whispered to himself, "I am not a god, but a man." It's human beings who make mistakes, and there's nothing to be frustrated about. ”

Query the balance, which is displayed as minus one thousand.

Dream Interpretation That game, he made some money, and later strengthened the demon attribute, the account only had a thousand deposits, this game failed, he was deducted two thousand scarlet coins, and his assets became negative.

Taling's voice echoed in his mind: "Pay off the arrears in three days, or be wiped out." ”

Wei Liang didn't feel the fear, and automatically ignored this sentence, still immersed in the game and couldn't extricate himself, muttering: "Who stole the money?" ”

Taling was silent.

"I'm really curious, please tell me the answer." Wei Liang's eyes burst with longing, like a student with a strong thirst for knowledge, and said persistently: "Mo Feilei is right? ”

Ta Ling said slowly, "He was also wrong. ”

"Who the hell is that thief?"

"There are no thieves. ”

"What?" Wei Liang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did Huang Kang's money go?" ”

"He misremembered, the money was not in the living room, but in the bedroom."

Wei Liang was stunned.

The ending is so absurd and so nonsensical. The five of them were suspicious of each other, and they all said that they were justified, and they never thought that no one would steal money at all.

"So, just a farce?"

"That's right, it's just a farce."

Wei Liang had a complicated heart and said coldly: "This is a trap. You deliberately imply that someone stole the money, but led us down the wrong path. ”

Ta Ling said calmly: "In the final voting session, you can also vote for no one, so that the task can be completed." ”

Wei Liang was speechless.

The confessions of the five people quickly replayed in his mind, like an accelerated movie, and gradually, his mind calmed down, his anger and frustration subsided, and only reason remained.

He suddenly felt that this game was very interesting, even if the ending was not satisfactory, it was still the most profound of all death games.

It reveals something.

Why did Huang Kang insist that Xue Hao was a thief? Because at the dinner table, Xue Hao quarreled with him, so he held a grudge, and in the absence of evidence, he would naturally suspect the person he hated the most.

Why did Xue Hao insist that Xiao Li was a thief? Because Xiao Li dumped him. As for whether it is empathy or disapproval, it doesn't matter anymore. The important thing is that Xue Hao hates Xiao Li, so he thinks she is a thief.

Why does Xiao Li say that Xiao Huang is a thief? Because Xiao Huang dropped her mobile phone and ran away without saying a word. Xiao Li dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, after all, he was the boss's son. Although she pretended to be generous on the outside, she was secretly resentful. When the shape is unknown, Xiao Huang's shortcomings are infinitely magnified, and he naturally becomes the most suspicious person.

Why does Xiao Huang think that her mother took the money? Because his mother didn't buy him a mobile phone, he was angry and labeled his mother as untrustworthy.

Why does Huang's wife think that Boss Huang is cheating? Because her husband is suspected of cheating, his behavior has become untrustworthy.

Wei Liang realized that this is human nature.

When judging a thing, people never analyze it from an objective and rational point of view, but rely on their own inherent impressions. For example, if you like a person, if he does something bad, he will do a good thing; Hate a person, he does good things, and he will also treat them as bad things.

As for the lengthy confessions of the five people, they seem to be justified, but they are slanders that they can't even perceive.

Between them, they have already labeled each other. Without evidence, the five can only infer by intuition. What is intuition? is the definition of another person that once was. For example, that's a villain, that's a bad guy, that's a good guy, and so on. Once the definition is given, the subconscious mind will distort the person's behavior and motivation into its own imaginary face, thus losing the most authentic judgment.

In everyone's heart, there is a thief. Before the money was lost, the thief appeared.

――――

I said in the group before that it doesn't matter who the thief is, I just want to use this game to dissect human nature.
