Ark
About This Novel
The "Ark" is a weird building built deep underground with three floors. Seven college students and couples with children came to explore. Unexpectedly, an earthquake occurred early the next morning. The exit was blocked by huge rocks and water rose from the ground. In 7 days, the entire ark would be submerged. The only way to escape from the Ark is to leave one person behind to operate the mechanism and let the boulder blocking the entrance fall. But the person left behind will be trapped underground forever and drown. At this moment, a murder occurred without warning. The murderer is naturally among these nine people. As for who he is, no one knows except the murderer. By sacrificing one person, others can be saved. Who is going to die? Are you going to die? I'm going to die? Or - let the murderer die? As death gradually approaches, the number of people in the Ark decreases one by one, and the morality on earth finally loses its restraint...

The reversal of the ending is really unexpected, but it is reasonable. The reasoning in the full text is also easy to understand, five-star recommendation!
Very surprising, but not surprising. The road to survival is a dead end, but there is a way out!
Finished reading
The reversal of motivation later is exciting, but overall it's not very profound. Because human nature has been completely ignored, everyone still behaved in this predicament. No one was in a hurry or cared about death, and they were still going through the process.
The final reversal is really chilling, and the evil of human nature is fully demonstrated. It is a human novel under the guise of reasoning. The reasoning is more like embellishment. Therefore, using the logic of real life, the crime process is a bit unreal and the whole process is cheating. There is also a slight gap between this translation and the Taiwan version.
recommend! Wonderful reversal!
Human kindness is disguised kindness. People's evil wants to be recognized as evil. This book allows readers to appreciate the twists and turns of the human heart, the art of language and the ultimate choice - the seemingly sacrificed murderer escapes, the six people who celebrate their rebirth and wait desperately for death, the detective with clear logic is just a hair away, the murderer who confesses frankly has a precise plan, and the two people comforting each other have no choice but to make a choice. The plot has ups and downs, and the final reversal made me really feel the feeling of being deceived, and I also felt a bit of guilt - maybe it was the choice of "sacrifice Mai".
Very powerful
The murderer... Is really a ruthless person, who has an insight into human nature and kills people with heartache.
