2. 杀害信任自己的情人
B

在大多数文化中，通奸是一种社会不认可的行为，通常会引起人们对遭受背叛者的同情。
当情绪（包括罪恶感）激起时，通奸通常变得更糟，可能导致通奸者做出更恶劣的行为。当一个人已经公认是坏人或罪犯时，他们可能会相信，并行事邪恶，或者他们可能“一不做二不休”，而抛弃了正常的价值。
否认错误也可能导致争吵，并向配偶掩盖其通奸恶行，配偶因而承受惨痛的代价。
故事的观众可能很难相信他们的眼睛，但他们知道这种事情确实会发生在现实中，它使正常人陷入黑暗和邪恶。这绝不是英雄行为，但在向凶手报仇或伸张正义时，会给人英雄的感觉。

Discussion
Adultery is a socially disapproved-of activity in most cultures and generally creates much sympathy for the betrayed.
Normal adultery can turn worse when the emotions aroused, including guilt, can lead an adulterer into even worse acts. When a person is already cast as bad and guilty, they may either believe the accusation and act in an evil way, or they may think 'In for a penny, in for a pound' and dispense with consideration of normal values.
Denial of the wrong-doing may also lead the person into argument and displacement of their bad deed onto the spouse, who pays the ultimate and terrible price.
The watcher of this story may hardly believe their eyes, yet know that this kind of thing does happen in reality as once-normal people sink into dark and evil acts. This is hardly the act of a hero, but may well give the hero something of a quest in bringing vengeance or justice to the murderer.
