So naturally, since he couldn't find the body of the locust and suspected that the locust had a carrier, in order to prevent unexpected events, Zhao Ping simply threw all the corpses out of the bus, and the bus immediately drove off. In this way, If the wolf really disguised itself as a passenger and followed the body out of the bus, and the bus started driving, wouldn't it be the same as being taken out of the car by then? Once the tiger escapes from the car, will everyone be in danger?
A basically reasonable guess and a generally logical analysis, but...
"Wait!" Frowning, Peng Hu immediately questioned, and then interjected in a complicated tone: "Okay, even if what you said makes sense, then why did you kill John? John is obviously not a mutated man. , after all, he had a blood transfusion to He Fei not long ago. If he is really disguised by a wolf, do you think the wolf will give He Fei a blood transfusion? Or is it possible that the wolf has the same bright red blood as humans?"
As mentioned above, because he has been obsessed with the murder of John, even though the glasses man’s analysis is reasonable and the guess is reasonable, Peng Hu still does not agree with it and is unwilling to accept it, and then finds the loopholes in the glasses man’s words. Indeed, as Peng Hu just argued Like that, even if you seriously suspect that Qi is disguised as a passenger, John is 100% not Qi. The evidence comes from the blood transfusion that the other party had not long ago!
"Speak? Why don't you speak?".
Seeing that Zhao Ping fell silent after hearing his refutation and kept his brows furrowed, Peng Hu continued to ask questions non-stop, trying to get a reasonable answer from the other party no matter what.
answer?
have! As soon as Peng Hu finished speaking, Zhao Ping opened his mouth to give an answer, a strange answer that was completely different from what he expected, and even did not answer the question at all:
"Recall the original Randall."
Silence, silence, silence.
When Zhao Ping suddenly said the name Ran Duo'er, which seemed to be similar to his own, Peng Hu was stunned for a moment, and then stopped talking. He became completely mute. As for why he didn't speak? Not arguing? The reason is simple, or the reason why Peng Hu is speechless is still his status as a veteran who has experienced too much.
There is no doubt that when it comes to Randall, except for the newcomers and a few people who boarded the train a little later, everyone has experienced a mission called 'Evil Spirit Hotel'. It was a very difficult mid- to upper-level mission. It was also a dangerous mission that almost led to the destruction of the team, and the key to the team's almost destruction was that the tiger was hidden too deeply, and was actually hidden in Randall, who must be protected according to the mission!
If He Fei hadn't identified the location of the creature at the last moment, they wouldn't have been able to survive and persevere until now. Instead, they would have been killed in that supernatural mission where no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find the true form of the creature.
then……
"Why!"
After listening to Zhao Ping's seemingly short but obvious answer, Peng Hu stopped talking, and then shook his head like a deflated ball and sighed silently.
Yes, there is no need to explain, and the reason why Zhao Ping threw John out of the bus is precisely this. Although John is not a wolf in disguise, who can guarantee that John will not be attached to a wolf like Randall was? ? Hiding quietly in a man's body without anyone noticing? As for why you want to kill it before throwing it out of the car? The reason is even simpler. The mission stipulates that passengers are not allowed to leave the bus for more than 100 meters. Once they exceed the distance, no matter who they are, they will be swallowed up by the ground and buried alive!
In order to avoid the pain of John being buried alive, Zhao Ping showed his kindness and directly sent John to heaven in advance with a painful and short shooting method.
……………
When a person abandons many of the emotions that humans should have in order to live, then this person can be equated with absolute rationality. Once a person is extremely rational and calm, his method of dealing with problems will never be mixed. There is even a trace of good and evil elements in it, and everything done is to achieve the goal, that is, to achieve the goal by any means.
What should the executive team do most right now? Or how can we avoid the complete destruction of the team?
The answer is, of course, to find a way out. Unfortunately, the way out is not that easy to find. But because it is so difficult to find out, it is inevitable to put all the guesses about the way out that have been thought of before death into practice and implement them through experiments. Use reasoning. The most common elimination method is to test one by one and verify one by one, giving priority to eliminating all wrong guesses. Once all wrong guesses are eliminated, the guess left at the end must be the guess that is closest to the true path of life.
Regardless of which method will be left behind in the end, in the process of executing the elimination method, sacrifice is inevitable, even if this sacrifice has little value, even if it can only eliminate a trace of unknown threats, but... …
so what?
In my eyes, my personal life is extremely precious, and I must rely on the team to survive. Therefore, for the benefit of the team and to minimize team losses, some less important people can be sacrificed, even if this is This kind of sacrifice is just to verify an uncertain guess of mine, but it is still worth it. As long as the guess can be verified and the threat eliminated, it doesn't matter how many people die in the process. It's not me who dies anyway, and the only thing I can do is to replace the victim. Reduce unnecessary death pain.
As for good and evil? As for right or wrong? And that so-called human nature?
It’s meaningless, absolutely meaningless. Of course we can talk about good and evil, and we can also talk about right and wrong, but when talking about these things, there is often a prerequisite, and that is to live!
Yes, if you lose your life, what's the point of talking about the so-called good and evil of human nature? Once a person dies, any right or wrong in the world has nothing to do with you.
Through successive verifications, I have now eliminated all wrong guesses and avoidable uncertain threats. So, next, all I have to do is to perform the third step, which is also the last step of my personal analysis of the future.
Success or failure depends on this move, life or death depends on this move.
Time is running out. There is less than half an hour left before the phantom attack is launched. During this period, I must find an answer that has nothing to do with the way to survive. Only by finding that answer can I execute the plan that is crazy to me and even to everyone. The ultimate way to survive.
………
The time is 3:41 in the morning, 19 minutes left before the phantom attack is launched!
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
The flow of time is unstoppable, and the second hand representing time is also turning slowly and steadily on the dial. Although it seems to be running slowly and evenly, it is so terrifying in the silent carriage. Every time the second hand moves, Suddenly, everyone's hearts became tense, rising and falling frequently with clear and melodious ticking sounds, and beating wildly one after another. The pressure began to surge, and it filled the empty carriage, making everyone unable to breathe.
"Huh! Well, I admit that what you said makes sense, but after all, it is just your personal guess. It is a theoretical point without any evidence to support it. I didn't expect that you would actually do it for a mere point of view, to rule out an unknown existence. Kill John without the threat! This, this is too cruel!"
Because Zhao Ping's explanation was reasonable, Peng Hu finally gave up. The anger that had been burning was blocked by Zhao Ping's no-nonsense reminder. Although the anger was restrained, the bald man still did not approve it. The reason for what Zhao Ping did was just like what he just said. It was too cruel and inhumane. Even if you were doing it for the team, no matter how many reasonable reasons you had, you shouldn't just kill him without saying anything. Is John broken? Can't we discuss it with other teammates before taking action? After all, it was not killing a chicken, but killing a person, and the person killed was a police officer, a good man, an innocent person who posed no threat to the execution team!
"Brother Peng, I understand what you are saying. However, unfortunately, reality does not leave us much time to hesitate and think. It is even less likely that we will be allowed to live for one more minute or one second. Time is too tight, and it is too tight to allow us to live. We don’t have to waste time thinking about John, so I can only cut through the mess quickly and eliminate all threats in the shortest possible time.”
Listening to Peng Hu's unwilling accusation, Zhao Ping explained the reasons slowly and once again used irrefutable theoretical basis to block the bald man back. There is no doubt that if the debate eloquence is compared alone, no one in the entire team will win. Zhao Ping, who was a lawyer, could argue better. Even He Fei, who was equally eloquent, did not dare to confront him. It is conceivable that facing such a gold medal lawyer that even He Fei was not sure of defeating, if Peng Hu could As he said, he was really shocked. As expected, Zhao Ping only used one sentence, and Peng Hu was completely defeated. For a while, the bald man only twitched at the corners of his mouth, and he never said a single word again.
Of course, just because Peng Hu has nothing to say does not mean that everyone has nothing to say, nor does it mean that others will always care about John's death like Peng Hu. As a professional killer who has killed more people, and the man with glasses Likewise, Cheng Ying didn't care whether John, the plot character, was dead or alive. All she cared about were her teammates, or in other words, she only cared about her teammates who were recognized by her. So naturally, when she glanced at the time on her watch again, she saw the time. After confirming that the time was getting closer to 4 o'clock in the morning, the girl panicked and returned to the topic. She looked directly at the bespectacled man in front of her who had been surprisingly calm since he woke up and asked: "Since you have eliminated all wrong guesses and threats, So what should we do next? Or have you found a way out?"
As expected of a professional killer with keen observation, although Zhao Ping didn't say it clearly, Cheng Ying still noticed the overall changes in the man. Yes, since the man with glasses woke up from the coma just now, she found that Zhao Ping had changed. He was no longer as panicked as he was at the beginning, but was extremely calm. He was so calm that he seemed to be a different person. No matter how he behaved or spoke, he was completely different from others. Even though there was not much time left, Zhao Ping still maintained absolute calm and was not at all distracted by what was about to happen. Scared by locust attacks.
Why is he so calm? Could it be...
At the same time, listening to Cheng Ying's probing inquiry that pointed directly to the point, Zhao Ping gave an unconventional answer that surprised Cheng Ying and everyone present:
"I don't want to talk about the way out yet, because before that I have to solve a problem and find an answer."
"Answer? What answer?" Since he really didn't expect the other party to talk about anything else, Cheng Ying was curious and asked. However, this time Zhao Ping did not answer. Instead, he turned sideways and looked back at everyone around him. Looking at someone suspiciously, he looked at Tang Meng who was watching and listening!
then……
"Ms. Tang, I remember that you are a psychiatrist in real life, right? If that's the case, I think you should have some research on human psychology."
Huh?
Staring without any reason, talking without warning, Tang Meng was stunned when he saw the man with glasses deliberately looking for her. He was stunned and speechless for a moment by the other person's sudden question. Indeed, it's not surprising. She had this reaction. After all, she knew who she was. She was just a newcomer, a newcomer who was completely unqualified to participate in senior discussions because of too little experience. However, who would have thought that Zhao Ping, who obviously has a decisive role in the team, A senior person with a high status now deliberately seeks out her to ask her questions? Ask a question about psychology?
What did he want to ask?
"Well, if we talk about human psychology, I do have some research." Of course, doubts were doubts, and curiosity was curiosity. Faced with this indifferent man in front of him who didn't take human life seriously at all, Tang Meng's dullness could not be maintained too much. He didn't dare to hold on for too long, so he hurriedly broke away and regained consciousness and nodded in affirmation.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Zhao Ping continued to ask without doubt: "Okay, in that case, I have a question related to psychology that I want to ask you. I hope Miss Tang will give you some advice."
The man with glasses was polite and courteous, but Tang Meng, who had long been afraid of this man, did not dare to show even a trace of calmness, and nodded to ask questions.
Next, Zhao Ping asked a question in a narrative tone, a question that shocked Tang Meng and everyone present:
"Based on the professional habits of psychiatrists, I think Ms. Tang has been observing us since we boarded the train, right? Observing the personalities, habits, specialties and even abilities of all senior people including me, etc., as expected, it is good, from you From the beginning to now, you have almost understood us, at least you have basically figured out the personality and habits of each senior person. Therefore, with your professional psychological knowledge, I have a question for you to answer. A question that you only need to answer based on your personality and habits. Let’s analyze the problem in depth, that is…”
"What's the biggest difference between me and He Fei?"
As soon as these words came out, the car suddenly fell silent. Whether it was Li Tianheng who was driving in the front row or Cheng Ying and others who were listening and watching, including Tang Meng, the crowd was instantly brought into silence by Zhao Ping's inexplicable question. , pulled into the astonishment, except for the silence and astonishment, almost everyone also subconsciously developed an unpredictable curiosity, that is...
Zhao Ping suddenly asked why? And the person you're asking is still a newcomer who has had relatively little contact with everyone? So what if the other person is a psychiatrist? In fact, there is still no need to ask Tang Meng, right? Wouldn’t it be enough to just ask the senior people? Yes, if we put aside the bespectacled man's intention of raising this question and just think about the biggest difference between him and He Fei? The answer is very simple. It is almost a simple question that all experienced people know clearly.
As mentioned above, if you want to ask what is the biggest difference between Zhao Ping and He Fei, the difference is that He Fei is aboveboard and aboveboard, while Zhao Ping is sinister and despicable. One relies on himself when dealing with problems, while the other is accustomed to cheating and borrowing money when dealing with problems. Chess pieces, whether in terms of behavior or behavior, are completely opposite existences. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as pure white and black. This is the standard answer, a standard answer that is recognized and considered by senior people.
but……
For such a simple question, Zhao Ping did not ask Cheng Ying or Peng Hu and other senior people who knew him best. Instead, he deliberately asked Tang Meng, a newcomer who was labeled as a psychiatrist. .
Because they really couldn’t figure out the true intention of the man with glasses, and the senior people had already developed a certain tacit understanding, so even though they knew the answer, Cheng Ying didn’t speak, Peng Hu didn’t speak, and Li Tianheng didn’t speak, and they were at a loss. Jiang Liqing was so overwhelmed that it was even more impossible to say anything. No one at the scene answered on behalf of Tang Meng. Instead, they all stared at the woman and Tang Meng, expecting the woman to answer with different eyes.
As for Tang Meng...
Maybe the psychiatrist does have a different thinking logic than ordinary people, or maybe she has vaguely noticed something from the bespectacled man's question. After Zhao Ping finished speaking, Tang Meng's expression changed on the opposite side, and the fear on his face quickly disappeared, replaced by It was the serious expression that Zhang only showed when facing patients. Obviously, in order to find the standard answer, Tang Meng reintegrated into the role and into the profession of a psychologist again. She was working, as usual when she was in the hospital. Face the patient and analyze the condition like that, and then carefully analyze the clues revealed by the patient to gain more insights. During the process, I also asked a small question:
"What you mean is that I don't need to care about your and He Fei's habits, talents, or abilities before analyzing the problem. I only need to focus on their personalities, right?"
"Well, yes, since you and I have been in contact for a short time, it would be unfair for you to analyze deeper issues, so my requirements are not high. I only hope that you can use a professional perspective to Analyze He Fei and I, analyze the personality differences between us."
After receiving a positive answer, Tang Meng returned to deep thought, but what was a bit surprising was that Tang Meng's deep thought did not last as long as before. It only took less than a minute for the woman to finish thinking and look up again, and then told Zhao Ping the truth. , No, no, it’s not a narration, but an answer. He answered the man’s question in a professional tone, and gave an analysis and explanation of the huge difference between the answers expected by Duan, Cheng Ying and others:
"Based on my recent observations of you and He Fei, I don't think there is much difference in personality between you two. The key reason why I say this is that psychiatrists never use external eyes to see people, or in other words, psychiatrists When looking at people, I never look at their appearance. After all, a person’s external personality is very easy to see. Almost everyone can easily figure out the personality from the words and deeds of the person being observed. Therefore, I never look at people’s appearance. But look at the inner intention.”
After taking the lead in making some psychological remarks that would open the eyes of ordinary people, Tang Meng glanced at the astonished Cheng Ying and others around her. Tang Meng frowned slightly and locked her gaze on Zhao Ping again. At the same time, she continued: "As for the inner intention, I believe it now. I believe that what He Fei said is true. The cursed space and supernatural missions he originally described to me and other newcomers are all real. If not, then I cannot appear. In this supernatural mission, it is even more impossible to personally experience the locust attack. It is precisely because I have 100% believed that this is a cursed space equivalent to hell, so I can easily adopt empathy and use empathy to do my best. Maybe I can understand the inner world of you and He Fei."
"As I concluded at the beginning, your inner worlds are almost the same as a whole. The purpose is to live. The difference is nothing more than simply living or living because of some hope. But this is not the point. The point is your Although the goal is to stay alive, the attitudes towards dealing with life and death crises are very different, and can almost be described as thousands of miles apart."
"As for the attitude?"
"Note that the attitude I am referring to is not the means, but the personal mentality when dealing with threats."
"Yes, mentality. It is often said that people are different, so everyone's mentality when facing problems is naturally different. Through my observations of you and He Fei during the mission, I found that He Fei's response to the monster His mentality is bold and decisive, and he is the kind of adventurous character who either cannot find it, but once he finds it, he will immediately implement it or even implement it personally. To put it bluntly, it is understandable why Fei is very courageous. He dares to gamble. Once the probability of success reaches his heart, When assessing the expected level, He Fei will gamble and dare to risk his life directly. It is also worth noting that risking his life is not the same as suicide, because I also noticed from He Fei's long silence earlier that he paid attention to it. Thinking, knowing how to analyze the key points until the answer is analyzed, that is to say, He Fei's adventures are often based on the premise of a high success rate."
"As for you..."
Having said this, he paused and glanced at Zhao Ping again. After confirming that the other party had a thoughtful expression, he gritted his teeth. The next moment, as if he had made some kind of decision, Tang Meng spoke directly, He directly continued in a tone that was not afraid of offending: "As for you, with all due respect, I admit that you are generally no less intelligent than He Fei in terms of reasoning and analysis, otherwise you would not have been able to analyze so much information about worms for everyone. , and at the same time, it is impossible for everyone to place all their hopes on you after He Fei fell into coma, but..."
"Unlike He Fei who dares to take risks at critical moments, you are too cautious, to the point of being timid."
