No, because there?d still be a chance of you getting caught if the man with the briefcase
knows that you?ve killed someone and you have no reason to trust that he?ll keep his gob shut. Also, I don?t think I could bring myself to kill someone, even if it was a stranger. The guilt combined with the fear of capture would probably tear me apart.
If there was truly 0% of being captured in this highly unrealistic hypothetical situation without any consequences, especially long-term (like, the man with the briefcase kills himself afterwards for some reason), then yes, I?d do it. I?d put some cyanide or something in their drink, get the fuck out of there, and they?d later die in their sleep without me ever having to witness the death. If not that, a quick shot to the back of the head.
I?d still feel guilty, but I?d have
five million dollars. Everyone are whores to money. When you look at the TV and hear a story about a convicted murder, I don?t jump to conclusions and think, ?Grr, what an evil guy, he should be castrated for what he did!? It could just as easily been anyone of us, and don?t think that anyone of you are automatically saints because all of us have thought about killing someone, whether or not they deserved it, and all of us have the capacity to do so.
Especially if it?s someone that you don?t even know nor affects you in your day-to-day life. Plus, many of us, including myself, have a skewed moral code that we don?t necessarily stick to.

A much more pertinent question would be to ask people if they'd let the stranger spunk in their bum-hole for 5 million. That way people will be able to recognise whether or not they are whores.
I'd ask him to get a test first, and if he's clean, I'd agree to it. No-one but my arsehole would be harmed, and honestly, being penetrated in the anus can't be
that bad.
Of course I?m a whore. We?re all fucking whores, and nothing I?ve seen or heard of on this planet has suggested otherwise.

Nope. Not even if there was a chance of not being caught. Why not? Because Karma is a major beeaaahhhch.
I wouldn't let such irrationally supernatural beliefs as karma restrict your freedom like that.
Years ago, I tried being a fucking saint, doing good things and generally being nice to people because I believed that the problems I was having was largely my own fault and I hoped that my life would be dragged out of butter. Fast-forward to the present day, and I'm still knee-deep in the same shit that I'd been experiencing since then.
Fuck karma, it doesn't exist. The theory of some kind of good-evil natural order balance bullshit is entirely ridiculous and idealistic.

Although, if he's got the briefcase now... that implies payment up front. I could agree, take the case, take out three million (and hide it), then go to the police and say that this guy offered me Two million to kill the person, and how. I get to be a hero for turning the guy in, and I have three million for my trouble.
Could he really be done for that, though? It's word against his, and the police would ask where the money is now, meaning that you might have to fess up.
Also, he could say that he'd only give you the money until
after you killed the person. But that's even more risky, so as long as he gives me the money and kills himself after I've killed the person (or it's him that I have to kill), then I'd probably do it. Of course, this is in a highly unrealistic hypothetical situation where there?s absolutely 0% chance of capture without any long-term consequences.
