Chapter fifty-ninth, the rescue failed

After saying "but", Iger pointed the gun in his hand at Dean and others on the ground. He said: "The laws of this world have collapsed, and morality is not enough to restrain people's behavior.

However, no matter how you look at it, from any angle, your behavior has exceeded people's psychological bottom line and limits.

The bottom line is something that, once dropped, can never be picked up again.”

I don’t know what Iger will say next, but the three Deans clearly feel the murderous intention shown by Iger.

"Do you know why there is a law?" Egg suddenly raised his head and asked everyone. His words were a bit baffling, and others were even more baffled.

Seeing that no one answered, Joanna turned to Iger and said, "Isn't the law set up by rich people to find ways to throw poor people into prison?"

Ahem...let’s not mention this meaning for now.

Egger gave Joanna, who was looking at him, a "Your answer is 0 points" look, and he said sternly: "The law is the bottom line of behavior that stipulates that people can be trusted.

It is precisely because of legal constraints that we can predict the bottom line of a stranger's behavior, and thus establish basic trust based on this bottom line of behavior.

Without law, there would be no basic trust between people. Without basic trust, there would be no synergy between people.

No matter it is a country, group or organization, once it loses its synergy, it will become a piece of sand and be destroyed by internal friction."

"Oh, that's it." Joanna suddenly realized that this was the first time she heard such an explanation.

"Look at you." Egg said to the three Deans, "If we don't come, maybe within three days, you will be fighting each other. The final result will be that you kill me, or I kill you."

I'll kill you, or we'll be finished together.

Your team is a team without hope, a team destined to be eliminated by this world.

You are not qualified to join us."

"Okay, man, I understand." Dean apologized, "I just ask you to let us go, okay? Just move the gun away, and we will disappear before your eyes, disappear without a trace."

, will never appear before your eyes again.”

"You have made the most intolerable mistake." Egg shot a hole in Dean's head. He pointed the gun at Zachary and said, "Those who betray their companions must die."

Egger fired a second shot, killing Zachary as well.

Jenna was lying on the ground, holding her head in her hands and her whole body was shaking. She couldn't suppress her crying, which was pitiful.

"You conspired to kill four of your companions. Since you chose to do such a thing, you should know." Egg pointed the gun at Jenna's head and said: "I am begging for a life for your dead companions."

fair."

"boom."

Egger fired a third shot.

The other three people present watched Egger execute the executions one by one. They deeply agreed with Egger's words: no one can accept people who can even kill and eat their companions by their side.

Leaving a bad person behind will cause more disaster than killing a good person.

In the gospel team, it is definitely impossible to "never abandon or give up" everyone, but everyone believes that people in the team will not use themselves to feed infected people, nor will anyone hit them from behind when they are in the wild.

black gun.

Being able to entrust one's back to others depends on the remaining morality. If this weak connection is destroyed, people will become more terrifying creatures than the infected.

Looking at the three corpses that he thought were new friends just now, Egger sighed.

Since there were seven of them at the time, they did not think about how to escape, but chose internal friction. This directional mistake was the first step to their demise.

Some people may say that they are unarmed and there are hundreds of infected people outside, so how can they escape.

All we can say is that this is a problem they need to face.

If you choose to be consistent with the outside world, you may still have a glimmer of hope, but internal friction will only extend your survival time a little longer, which is actually a road to death and no life.

Egg put away his gun and said to the three people: "All survivors died, the rescue mission failed."

"Let's search separately to see if there's anything valuable we can take away. We'll meet downstairs later." After Iger finished speaking to the three team members, he walked towards the office on one side.

"Hi, Joanna." Erica gently touched Joanna, who was still in a daze, and asked, "Are you sure that Iger really just turned ten this year?"

Joanna shook her dazed head and said: "I don't know, who knows. Now you say he is an alien and I believe it. Maybe he is the kind of genius with an IQ of 200."

This cannot be explained by a genius.

Andy thought back to what Iger said about law and morality just now. It seemed like a very simple sentence, but it was definitely not something a child could understand to such a depth.

"This twisted and evil world." Andy looked at Jenna and sighed, feeling both sympathy and disgust for Jenna in his heart.

Andy has seen too many people who do bad things under the guise of "I just want to live." They are often victims the first time and perpetrators the second time, and then become more and more...

crazy.

Because the thought "I'm just trying to save my life" will give them a sense of immunity from their own actions, and no matter what they do, they will feel that it is natural.

After possessing psychological immunity, people will quickly become demons.

After a quick search for a while, it turned out that there was nothing worth carrying back in the visitor center. In order not to waste any more time, everyone decided to give up searching the commercial street and rush back to the bus at the foot of the mountain.

If you follow the main road, going down the mountain is much faster than going up the mountain. Joanna walks in front easily with an empty backpack on her back.

Egg found that this little girl was a bit cunning: she actually thought of letting everyone eat the food in her backpack first to reduce her own load.

With great difficulty, everyone finally used the remaining light after the sun went down to walk to the bus at the bottom of the mountain. After seeing "Hell's Kitchen", the rain of infected people was nothing more than that.

What Iger said makes sense. Once a person's lower limit is lowered, it is difficult to raise it again.

Thank God the car is still there.

When Iger and the others left, they did not take out the car keys. At that time, they thought it would be convenient for anyone to return to the car and drive. Now in retrospect, I feel that I was a little too careless.

What if a passing survivor casually drives away? Are we going to go back?

Joanna nimbly jumped into the driver's seat of the pickup truck. She gently turned the key, and the pickup truck ignited smoothly.

Then, Joanna skillfully turned the car around, then stepped on the accelerator. The car roared forward quickly, turned a corner, and disappeared.

what f !?

The three of Egg looked at each other, not knowing what happened. It took a while for everyone to realize that it was over. Joanna left them and drove away!

Everyone's hands and feet felt cold for a while, and they were about to lose their sight. Now we made an immediate decision to find a safe place to spend the night.

"Quickly, help me pull this body out." Iger turned around and ran towards the minibus. He also shouted loudly to Andy and Erica who were in a daze.

When the three of them were untying the seat belt from the bus driver's body in the dark, a bright light came from behind.

After a roar, the pickup truck stopped in front of the three people.

"How about this? Is this joke refreshing enough?" Joanna rolled down the driver's window and laughed at the three of them.

"You!" Iger turned around angrily and yelled at Joanna: "I won't give you the piece of chocolate I found today!"

"Hey, there's chocolate!" When Joanna heard this, she immediately purred like a cat: "Brother Egg, I want to eat it too."

"Go away, go away." Egg took out a piece of half-melted chocolate from his pocket, divided it into several pieces, and handed it to Andy and Erica, who were dumbfounded next to them.

"Yeah, there are hazelnuts in it. It's so delicious..." Iger deliberately made a loud smacking sound.

"Egg~ Let me take a bite too~ Please~"

"Ha, get in the car quickly."

"I'm so tired. Can you let me sit in the back seat? I want to take a rest."

"Okay, let's sit in the back row together and let these two young men make trouble in the front row."

The pickup truck turned around and headed forward.

Although the road ahead is dark, everyone in the car knows that there is a warm home not far away waiting for them to return.
