Chapter 188: The Secret of Perhentian Island (24)

When the sun shone its first rays of golden light, Meng Hui opened his heavy eyes, turned his head sideways, and saw the sand outside the glass door glowing with golden light, and a round of burning golden sun was hanging over the boundless sea. This is the fifth day they have been on Perhentian Island, and there are only three people left from the seven people at the beginning.

"Morning," Grady handed her a blue thermos cup filled with seaweed-scented water, "Vi went outside to light a fire, and I was about to wake you up to go fishing." ”

"Okay, let's go while it's still hot." Meng Hui took the cup, swallowed a few sips of nausea, and followed him towards the glass door.

Without the sound of footsteps and heavy breathing from everyone walking around, the cabin was exceptionally quiet. Lan Dong didn't return, and there was a black thing on the balcony, which was part of the gun he was supposed to keep. As Meng Hui and Grady expected, he was going to commit suicide instead of really picking up his spirits to patrol.

Meng Hui leaned down and picked up the things and gave them to Grady, and when he walked down the low steps, he was still guessing in his heart that Lan Dong should go to the sea.

Lan Dong is not the kind of person who will spend energy fighting with his body, screwdrivers and other tools are too slow, not to mention that this is a "evidence", he didn't take it away. Suicide with bare hands on a flat beach is a problem, and the easiest and most direct way is to jump into the sea, saving even burial.

Meng Hui didn't have much ill feeling towards Lan Dong himself. The young man was silent as if he were completely absent, and few people would pay much attention to him if he did not speak. He has no ill will towards people, and he is not even too lazy to have any interest in contact with people, too lazy to eat, too lazy to drink, too lazy to struggle to survive, so he simply goes to die.

Lan Dong is not guilty of seven colleagues being burned to death. At most, this incident shocked him at the time, like a light wind sweeping across the lake, and he quickly regained his composure, and there was no more ripple in his heart.

Insensitive, there is no difference between living and dying, in the end, he just didn't find a reason to die, and he has been dragging his feet to commit suicide.

Therefore, Meng Hui did not have much of a good impression of Lan Dong. The lives of those seven people should have been counted on Lan Dong, because he only needed to jump off the sofa, walk out of the break room, get the fire extinguisher, and turn on the backup emergency door button outside the laboratory to let the people out.

In a few simple steps, a colleague who gets along day and night plus a buddy who treats him well can be rescued, but he doesn't bother to get up, and lets these people cry out desperately in the fire until the last moment.

It was hard for Meng Hui to imagine how painful it would be for a living person to be burned to death, maybe Lan Dong didn't even bother to think about it, so he wouldn't feel guilty and sad, and he was still alive without a soul.

Until now, it is difficult for Meng Hui to figure out who is more guilty of Bao Lu, Lan Dong, Shi Fatzi and Jia Ruyi, who caused this murder. Qi Enwei and Grady, who are still alive, also make it difficult for her to judge.

Including the original owner Du Shasha, she deeply realized the complexity of human nature.

These hateful people are more or less pitiful. In addition to Lan Dong, Shi Fatzi, Qi Enwei, and Grady's unlucky childhood, Du Shasha was not happy when she was a child.

Both parents cheated, deceived each other, hated each other to the point of fighting each other. What Du Shasha learned the most is how to deceive people, what kind of words to say, and what kind of expressions to have to achieve the best purpose.

The only thing that makes her feel warm in the indifferent environment is the neighbor's little warm man, who marries him, but still can't change her cold-blooded and merry nature.

Despite this, Meng looks back on Du Shasha's small half of her life, and thinks about the self-statements of everyone who came here, she still does not understand the "hateful" because of their "pitifulness".

The reason why people are human beings is that they are able to restrain and control their instincts, and do not rely on instincts to determine their behavior.

And the people here don't seem to control their thoughts at all, and they have been letting themselves go, how cool they are. Including Jia Ruyi, Jia Heping, father and daughter, who seem to have a full sense of justice, to put it bluntly, they did such a thing to satisfy their selfish desires.

"Sha, I feel like my body is degrading." Halfway through, Grady suddenly slowed down and walked beside Meng Hui, his tone a little heavy. "It should be that the symptoms of poisoning are deepening, my reaction and action are not as fast as before, and I often feel dizzy, heavy feet, and lack of strength."

Meng Hui was not surprised, because everyone knew in their hearts that it would be sooner or later, but they didn't expect that even a strong person like Grady would have such an obvious feeling. In fact, under the protection of her soul power, Du Shasha's physical discomfort will at most attack after heat stroke, and she usually feels almost nothing. But she still pretended to be dignified.

"Well, me too. The heart beats fast and slow, and sometimes it is difficult to breathe, as if it will die suddenly at any time. ”

"Yes, Sha, there's a good chance we'll die suddenly."

Grady was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled again: "If this is the doomed ending, I gladly accept it." What about you? Do you have any regrets? ”

Meng Hui raised his head and glanced at him, and found that his ease with death was indeed true, and it was not a pretentious gesture at all. "Me? I do not know. Even if you have regrets, what can you do? Waking up every day without seeing a ship at sea means that the hope of being rescued is even slimmer. Accepting reality is the only way. ”

Of course, Du Shasha would not want to die here, but Meng Hui knew when he saw Grady's situation that Du Shasha's body must have been almost damaged. As long as her powerful soul left this body, Du Shasha would not be able to bear it and would die of poison.

"You know, the sins you committed are the lightest, but if you follow the punishment of the Inferno of Dante's Divine Comedy, you should be the first to die." Grady went to the beach and let the water wash his ankles. "Then Shi Fatzi, me, Lan Dong, Bao Lu, Qi Enwei, and finally Jia Ruyi."

"I see. Jia Ruyi's arrangement of this murder was originally very ritualistic, so in her opinion, it was necessary to follow this order in order to achieve the purpose of punishment. ”

After Meng Hui finished speaking, he thought about it a little more. "If she deliberately let everyone die mysteriously and weirdly, the rest of the people will still live in terror, and the symptoms of poisoning will worsen day by day, even if the psychological quality is high, it may collapse, because I don't know when and how death will come."

Grady nodded and smiled, "It could have been a perfect murder, but it's a pity that she didn't have a good body of her own." Okay, the sea is still calm, will you go into the water first or me? ”

Meng Hui looked at his face, which was even whiter than usual, and his lips that began to fade at some point, sighed and said, "You stay here, I'll go first." ”
