I like to believe that's what actually happened. Yasu's plan only involved using the money to bribe fake deaths, but one of the adults/accomplices decides to make use of it for actual murder.

If we want to justify all the claims that "Yasu was actually ready to kill!" or whatever other things ryukishi has said to make them an evil villain, maybe they only wanted to kill with the bomb. As in, fabricate a fake murder story for Battler: if he can solve it, or solve the epitaph, and remember the promise, then all is fine. If someone else solves the epitaph, that's fine too. If none of that happens, Yasu blows the island up.

I can't see any holes in this explanation, and it makes Yasu a little more understandable in my eyes. Fake deaths have been a proposed idea in many episodes, and are a major plot point of Episode 5, so it's not like this is something we randomly came up with.

Can anyone point out any inconsistency in this?
