Chapter 2: Temptation

"My name is Tianyi, and I own a bookstore. Tianyi's opening remarks were very bland, and there was an unpleasant decadent look on his face, and his words ended here.

The self-introduction of the crowd did not last long, and the exchange of names was only secondary, and the significance of this introduction was much more than that. From the tone, demeanor, manners, occupation, and other aspects of each person, the social status of a total of thirteen people in the mainstream values has also been roughly established.

is the so-called clustering, from the very beginning, Tianyi has noticed this. The twelve, when they wake up, find themselves in a strange and desolate environment, and out of animal instinct, they consciously or unconsciously approach their "kind".

Skin color, gender, age, presumably such a priority, the same sex as one's own age and the same skin color, is the most "safe". On the contrary, a person of the opposite sex who has a different skin color and a certain age gap than himself is the most "threatening". In the long process of evolution, this is the experience that flows in the blood of all living beings, and it is impossible for human beings to get rid of this instinct, no matter how young they are.

When Yang Gang gathered the crowd, the position where the people were standing also conformed to the above order, so that the woman, who was also Asian, would stand very close to Tianyi.

And when you introduce yourself, this pattern will be broken.

Obviously, at this stage, these twelve people still have reason, and the inherent moral and legal concepts in ordinary society still affect their thinking.

So unconsciously, those with similar social status will gradually get closer. Aristocrats and entrepreneurs, white-collar workers and technicians, and, of course, street performers who spread rumors of aliens and the bald man who works in a meat processing factory.

Tianyi watched the crowd's actions coldly and didn't say a word. He noticed that the woman was still standing by his side, and whether he should say that she was wise or stubborn......

After a while, the crowd came to an agreement, and since everyone was confused about the current situation after the exchange, it was only necessary to look at the surrounding situation first.

Yang Gang suggested that everyone should not act alone, and it was best to go in groups of two or three to investigate the surrounding situation, but not too deep into the island, if you get lost in the dense forest on the island, it will be very dangerous. Anyway, everyone made an appointment to return to the beach in an hour to exchange information and see what they found.

After everyone dispersed, Tianyi said to the woman beside him: "Take a step to speak." ”

As soon as Tianyi finished speaking, he walked to the beach, at the moment the wind and waves were calm, the waves caressed the beach, and when he walked forward to the place where the sea water was below his ankles, Tianyi stopped, this distance was about the same, there was no one around dozens of meters, and then others might have to misunderstand that he was going down to swim or commit suicide.

The woman followed, she had taken off her shoes, carried them in her hands, and rolled up a stretch of trousers, apparently not wanting to wet them: "Hmm...... Mr. Tianyi?"

Tianyi: "Jiang Yun, there are a few things I want to confirm with you." ”

"Well, you say. Jiang Yun replied.

"As far as you know, Yang Gang is not a policeman, so he is ......"

Jiang Yun replied: "Wanted, I have seen his photo in the newspaper. ”

"Aren't you afraid I'm some wanted criminal you haven't seen the picture of?"

Jiang Yun smiled: "Then count me unlucky." Apparently she thought Tianyi was joking.

Tianyi: "So your plan is to tell everyone here the truth as much as possible without being detected by Yang Gang, so that they can be wary of this 'Officer Yang' and be on guard against it as soon as possible." ”

"Well, if you believe me, can you help me?"

Tianyi didn't answer, in his opinion, this woman can be described in two words - 颢顅, she is not without cleverness, at least she is more shrewd than the bald brother, but this plan is really indescribable, and the probability of failure is definitely as high as more than ninety percent.

If you think everyone is as good as you are, then you better pray that each of them is more stupid than you are.

"Normally I would charge a lot of money for someone else to come up with a similar idea, but this time I can give you a better plan for free. Tianyi: "Before his true nature was exposed, he picked up a stone casually, touched him behind him, attacked him unprepared, slammed the back of the head, and took it down in one fell swoop." ”

Jiang Yun said: "I'm ...... How could it be ......" She immediately thought of something: "Mr. Tianyi, you must not be impulsive...... He's a wanted man......"

Tianyi was really surprised, and said in his heart: This Yang Gang doesn't pose any threat to me, what reason do I have to kill him? Eliminate the potential threat for you guys I don't know?

"Rest assured...... I'm just giving a suggestion, I'm not interested in getting my hands dirty. He replied, but what he thought to himself was: When I was forced to do it, it basically meant that there was only human flesh on this island.

Jiang Yun said: "That...... Mr. Tianyi, should we also go and investigate around, don't be too conspicuous and attract Yang Gang's attention. ”

"The men here have been paying attention to you for a long time...... "Tenichi muttered vaguely.

"Hmm, what?" Jiang Yun asked.

Tianyi: "I mean, I've been paying attention to the forest over there for a long time, so let's go and take a look." ”

"Oh......" Jiang Yun replied and left the beach with Tianyi.

She put on her shoes again on the beach and followed Tianyi for a while, when she suddenly remembered something and asked, "Mr. Tianyi, why did you step on the sea with your shoes just now?"

"Oh...... Well, if I expose my socks to the air, I'm not the only one who will be uncomfortable. Tianyi brushed the matter over and changed the subject: "This island is not small, the people who brought us here must have some kind of purpose, but that purpose has not yet surfaced, but the danger in the shadows always exists, you better not relax too much." ”

Speaking of this, Tianyi suddenly stopped, and Jiang Yun, who was following him, also became nervous, not knowing what was going on in front of him.

"As a result, is there a water source so close to the coast......" Tianyi took another step, bypassing a few trees, and a clear spring appeared in front of him.

"Okay, it's a catch, the next problem is food, there are no animal tracks along the way, but it's not far from the shore, maybe there will be some in the center of the island. As soon as he spoke, he was going to continue to go deeper.

Jiang Yun said: "Mr. Tianyi, if you go too far and get lost......

Tian Yiguan walked forward without looking back: "If there is no food and water, this group of people will lose the most basic survival guarantee, and once this situation occurs, the level of human civilization will quickly regress and return to the primitive." In less than two days, everyone here will be like a wanted criminal, or worse. ”

Jiang Yun heard this, but he couldn't understand Tianyi's meaning for a while. She came from a well-to-do background, was highly educated, and had never made friends with a group that was far from her social status. In his eyes, courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame are taken for granted, the wicked should be brought to justice, and the good people will have a safe life.

And Tianyi's view of this kind of person is that the quality of innocence, after being ravaged by reality, will reveal its very similar appearance to stupidity......

At its limit, the mask of human hypocrisy will soon be shattered. For example, if you eat a piece of meat, you can live for two more days, and if you don't eat it, you will starve to death, but there is a guy who is not very familiar with you who also wants to eat this piece of meat. In normal times, you have no reason and guts to kill people, but at this time, you can't care about anything, as the so-called death of him is better than your death, and you can live for two more days if you kill this guy.

Tianyi glanced at Jiang Yun's expression, sighed and said, "Don't think about how good everyone is, just say that among the thirteen people on the island at this moment, in addition to Yang Gang, there are a few others who are worth noting." ”

Tianyi said: "Looking at Jerry, a boy who is thirteen or fourteen years old and claims to be a nobleman, and Mr. Rude, the 'butler' who is in his fifties, it is obvious that he is lying, just from Jerry's rough hands and talking demeanor, it can be seen that he is not a nobleman, and that Rude's demeanor is more like a noble lord."

The tattoo on the back of Carl's neck looks like a gangster mark, and it is estimated that he may have some "side hustles" in addition to his own job;

Ms. Fidelia, who claims to be a white-collar worker, is probably a prostitute, and her secondary syphilis is correct, so if I were you, stay away from her. It's hard to say whether her name is real or not.

The old man named Noguchi Masao is an old pervert, since he opened his eyes, he has basically never left the three women present, including you, of course, it may not be credible to say that he is a big entrepreneur, as far as I know, there is no big business with a boss surnamed Noguchi in Sakurafu, in my opinion, he is more like an official and politician or something.

The remaining four, Becky, a female college student, Gavin, an architect, and Dale and Lambert, a company employee, are not yet apparently suspicious. Well...... It seems that this type of person needs to be more careful. ”

Jiang Yun listened to Tianyi's narration, and became more and more surprised, but she didn't expect that this person seemed to be absent-minded, but in fact, she remembered and analyzed everyone present one by one, she couldn't help asking, "Are you really just opening a bookstore, Mr. Tianyi?"

Tianyi calmly replied, "If I were a perverted murderer, and you followed me alone to this secluded and uninhabited land now......" He looked back: "Can you still laugh it off and say, 'Count me unlucky'......"

Jiang Yun froze suddenly, at this moment, she did feel fear. She didn't know the man in front of her at all, half an hour ago, she didn't know this person, and it was even possible that everyone was captured by this Tianyi and came to the island...... I still remember that when I first opened my eyes, the only person who stood far away from everyone alone and woke up early was Tianyi, right......

The ominous feeling in her heart became stronger and stronger, but Tianyi turned around again and continued to say in an unhurried tone: "It's good that you can understand that you are afraid, people should always have a sense of crisis, no matter what the environment. At this moment, he seemed to have turned back into a reliable and harmless guy: "I have always treated people with sincerity, saying that I opened a bookstore, that is, I opened a bookstore, and if I didn't open a bookstore, I could only go to run a pig farm." ”

Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, she felt that she had just suspected too much, this is not a novel, where in the world are there so many perverted murderers who like to play tricks on the victim.

And Tianyi's best and favorite thing is to repeatedly mobilize people's emotions in the same paragraph, with big ups and downs. He continued what he had just said, and then said, "Are you really a playwright? Why do I think you're lying......
