Chapter 524: The Terminally Ill Heiress on Death Game Island (40)
"But I’ve never thought about doing anything to harm her. I might dislike someone, but I don’t want to do something that would make me dislike myself even more."
"A year ago, I thought as long as we trusted each other and didn’t betray, it didn’t matter if we couldn’t get out. Actually, from the beginning, I felt that it was basically impossible to get out of here."
Fang Qing’s voice was somewhat powerless: "I’ve been comforting myself, thinking that since we’ve known each other since childhood, we wouldn’t be like the others. But there was always another voice telling me not everyone thinks this way. I suspected Shanyang’s betrayal."
Huo Yi: "Perhaps you won’t believe it, but I wouldn’t do such a thing. I don’t want to sink low, I don’t want any lives on my hands. My parents are both police officers, they taught me from a young age to be upright, not to betray or abandon faith."
"Even if I end up here, unable to leave, and one day get killed by someone, I won’t betray my parents’ teachings. Even if I can never return, I don’t want to disgrace them. If they knew about all this one day, they would definitely support me."
Fang Qing: "I believe you’re capable of that."
"There aren’t many people like you here."
Fang Qing looked at Qiann Yan and Jing XiYuaan who walked out: "Now we’re down to four people."
Fang Qing didn’t speak the rest of the words.
Lu Shanyang had been waiting on the side, waiting for Qiann Yan to confront him and ask why.
However, Qiann Yan’s expression was calm, without confrontation, hatred, or animosity—not even a trace of anger.
Lu Shanyang dejectedly hung his head, but Jing XiYuaan approached him: "Since you chose this, you don’t belong in this team anymore."
"I know." Lu Shanyang immediately raised his head, looking in Qiann Yan’s direction, "Qiann Yan, I’m sorry, I truly wanted to get out."
"The hint I got this time was whether I succeeded in lying or not, I’d get three chances to draw boat tickets. Three times!!" Lu Shanyang repeated, as if afraid the others hadn’t heard clearly. The guilt on his face vanished, replaced by excitement, "Three times! I now have three chances to draw boat tickets, there’s a big chance I could get out."
"I think any one of you faced with such temptation would choose to lie, wouldn’t you?"
The group fell silent, so that’s how it was.
If it were them, even their own parents, it would be possible to deceive.
Is this a place for people to live?
Even if it had everything one needed to lead a life of luxury, it couldn’t compare to the outside. Besides, with the point exchange rate so high, if there were three chances to draw a boat ticket, once successful, their remaining points could all be exchanged into outside currency.
Lu Shanyang was right, few could resist. Not many could hold themselves back.
"I wouldn’t." Fang Qing said loudly, "I wouldn’t. If faced with such a hint, I would definitely refuse, I wouldn’t betray my teammates, never."
Lu Shanyang chuckled: "Because you haven’t truly encountered such temptation, three chances to draw boat tickets don’t attract you, what about ten times, thirty times, three hundred times? There are only ten boxes in total, with so many chances, even the least lucky in the Penguin Game could draw once, right? Don’t speak so certainly, you’re just not offered enough benefits."
Lu Shanyang became increasingly agitated, Huo Yi couldn’t help but interrupt him: "Don’t presume everyone is like you."
