It's a very simple question, and it doesn't give you a second glance in the corner of any magazine or book in this library.

But it's here.

Countless possibilities flashed in his mind, such as some unlucky child who wrote a sentence casually, and they happened to accidentally turn it over, but in fact, he also knew very well that those so-called other possibilities were not valid.

From the time Lin Chen received this text message, to the time they were led here step by step, looking for the bookshelf, turning to this hidden journal, and seeing this sentence, it all showed that someone deliberately wrote this question here, and that person was sure that Lin Chen would see it.

This is obviously related to Lin Chen's past.

After probably knowing what was going on, the criminal servant company was no longer worried.

"What is this?"

He spread out the book calmly, turned it around, turned the book towards Lin Chen, and pointed to the question sentence about choice in the gap between the pages, and spoke like a very ordinary question.

"It's a question and an answer."

Lin Chen's answer was still very personal, but Xing Conglian didn't feel that he was hiding it.

"What's the problem?" The torturer asked, looking him straight in the eye.

"The last time I was forced to answer this question was when I met Feng Peilin on the Taiqian Bridge last year." Lin Chen paused, and said clearly and methodically, "He came to ask me for someone: In this world of grains of sand, in this extremely small and grand confrontation, which side I would choose to stand on." ”

"Why are you so literary?" When he heard the word "Feng Peilin", Xing Conglian frowned slightly, even though this was an expected name, but it completely represented a past about Lin Chen that he had never touched.

Now, this past suddenly jumped out without warning, Lin Chen's back was straight, his eyes were cool, and he was obviously ready to uncover his scars.

Xing Conglian was a little unbearable, he stabilized his breath, and continued to ask: "What does a grain of sand, tiny, and grand indicate, and what is the so-called 'choice'?" ”

"It's hard for me to guess either. ' A grain of sand' is individual consciousness, 'small' refers to theirs, and 'grand' may be the moral and legal system of the whole society. Feng Peilin's whole sentence is translated as asking me, they want to be anti-social, and ask me if I can help them, but don't understand this sentence as a request, this is showing off. Lin Chen subconsciously rubbed his fingers against the countertop with some irritability, "It's really annoying." He emphasized.

At this moment, Lin Chen finally had the breath of a living person, and he was not sad, he was simply disgusted with these things.

"Now that I'm talking about it, there's a question I have to ask, why did you leave at that time?"

"Because Feng Peilin is dead." Lin Chen replied, "In fact, I know very well that his last step was to kill people and then commit suicide, which shows that he doesn't know water at all, and there is no reason for him to survive if he falls into the river." I devised this situation and used myself to lure him to suicide, but I didn't tell you about it, which was not in accordance with the legal process, and it was morally flawed, and I honestly felt guilty that I chose to leave. ”

"So, you didn't like me back then?" Xing Conglian suddenly asked, "Isn't it love at first sight?" ”

"How can you talk more off-topic than the dynasty?"

"Very important questions are more important than those things."

"At that time, I just thought you were handsome, the type I liked, and I didn't see your inner beauty."

Lin Chen replied very sincerely, and the torturer didn't even know whether to cry or laugh for a while.

"What about you?" Lin Chen also paused and asked him.

"At that time, I thought you were very beautiful inside, and there was a mysterious temperament that attracted me, but now I ......" The convict hooked his finger towards Lin Chen, Lin Chen subconsciously leaned over to him, he kissed Lin Chen's ear in the sun, and said, "I think you are good-looking now." ”

Lin Chen's face was obviously red, obviously they had done everything, but Lin Chen was still shy in an inadvertent moment, and the criminal servant enjoyed this moment very much.

Probably after he finished teasing Lin Chen, the atmosphere was not so heavy, and it was a little drowsy under the warm sun.

He closed the book, and the Q&A was also carried out at the most critical moment, and he solemnly spoke: "Since Feng Peilin is dead, then who left this passage here, who sent you a text message and led you to see it." ”

"Torture from Lian ......" Lin Chen dragged his tone and looked at him leisurely.

"Here."

"You really haven't read the file back then." Lin Chen said, "I mean, Huang Ze is angry about the incident where I killed her sister. ”

"Although I haven't read the file, I roughly know what kind of thing it is, when Huang Ze first came to Hongjing to trouble you." The convict honestly shook the pot, "It's Fu Hao who has to tell me." ”

Lin Chen was stunned, this was obviously unexpected: "You already knew that everything had passed?" ”

"No, Fu Hao only said, it was a railroad problem, you were forced to choose between four and sixteen, but he didn't tell me what kind of choice you made."

"He's been so eventful." Lin Chen lowered his head, his expression was dark, and he couldn't see any energy to make fun. But it was Lin Chen, and after a while, he seemed to be finally ready, raised his head, looked directly into his eyes, and asked resolutely: "So, do you want to hear my version here?" ”

……

Listening to the story and buying wine, this was Lin Chen's agreement with him at the beginning.

The convict ran downstairs and bought two cans of Yongchuan Chunsheng at the convenience store, and when he turned back, Lin Chen did not run away again, but laid out the two chairs towards the window very leisurely, with his feet on the windowsill, and on his knees was the 1975 "AmericanPsychologist" they had just found.

Lin Chen looked down at the collection of papers, and the back in the white shirt looked very much like the most popular senior among girls on campus.

The convict was even at peace in his heart, feeling that no matter what kind of story he heard, it didn't matter.

He walked over and pasted the beer can to Lin Chen's face, Lin Chen kissed the back of his hand, reached out to take the beer, stabbed, opened the can by himself, and took a big sip.

The torturer didn't even pay attention to him, but sat down on the stool next to him, hooked his hand to Lin Chen's backrest, and like Lin Chen, put his feet on the windowsill.

Lin Chen drank the wine, his cheeks were slightly red, but he was not drunk.

"Fu Hao told you about the railroad problem." Lin Chen asked, "What did he say exactly?" ”

He said that 20 children were thrown to play on the tracks for some reason, and four of them persuaded the other 16 that there would be trains passing on the tracks we were walking, so we should go to the other side, but the remaining 16 children did not listen and chose to stay where they were. At this moment, a train passes by and rushes straight for the 16 people, and you are the one who can pull the joystick and have the opportunity to sacrifice the few to save the many. The sentence condensed succinctly, "Fu Hao probably said this about this issue, but he didn't say the result. ”

"Do you want to know the results?" Lin Chen asked.

"I don't think the result matters." The punishment is answered.

Lin Chenzhi didn't expect him to say this, he looked at him strangely, but almost said to himself: "How can it not be important?" ”

"Because it's a puzzle where there are almost no right answers." The convict took a sip of beer, "I think this should be an ethical question?" ”

In fact, it is the most famous thought experiment in the field of moral philosophy. Published by Ford in 1967, it was intended to critique utilitarianism and attack Kant's theory of moral deontology. This was not the case with the original version, and the experiment has now been changed to look like a thousand oddities, but it still has a very profound meaning. ”

"Philosophers are always playing with fire, and that's a very dangerous problem." "In this question, the duties and responsibilities of orbital monitors and the value of life for the majority and the minority are discussed, but once the debate reaches the end, it is easy to fall into moral nihilism." Both sides who think that the lever should or should not be pulled will be stubborn, insisting that their views must be correct, and there will be a moment in the confrontation where everyone suddenly realizes that there is no such thing as morality and immorality, right or incorrect. ”

"Your point of view is always so special." Lin Chen lifted the beer can and touched it lightly with him, "I want to hear you talk about it in detail." ”

"Choices represent different values. Take the joystick, for example, if the tracker pulls the joystick and causes the train to change direction and crash into it to save more, then he is indirectly acknowledging the value that the lives of the majority are more important than the few. And it is clear that in modern society, this act is tantamount to breaking the rules of society and depriving others of their right to life, that is, murder. ”

"What if he doesn't make a choice?" Lin Chen asked.

"Not making a choice is also a choice." "He believes that he must abide by the rules of society and cannot save others by depriving some people of their lives." Behind this choice, there are actually pitfalls. He is tantamount to acknowledging that the lives of a few are more worthy of protection than the lives of the majority when the rules of society are obeyed. Since the value of each person's life is infinite, and it cannot be measured by the number of superimpositions, why does this become measurable after adding social rules? ”

"But it sounds like the latter is a better choice?" Lin Chen smiled, his face was quiet, "After all, if it is popularized, rules and justice are paramount, and rules maintain the normal operation of human civilization." ”

The criminal cong paused for a moment, but he didn't expect Lin Chen to ask like this: "If you really want to deduce this, then safeguarding the interests of the vast majority of human beings and ensuring the survival of human beings in the former choice happens to be the reason why we want to establish social rules and maintain the normal operation of society in the latter choice." "So in essence, both of these choices are the same moral utilitarian viewpoint, the former situational utilitarian and the latter rule-utilitarian, they have the same goal, and it makes no sense to ask such questions." ”

"No, I think it's still meaningful." Lin Chen objected to his point of view for the first time, he took a sip of wine, and said a little drunkly, "It is an incomparably beautiful thing that philosophers devise similar questions to think about the past experience and future destiny of human beings, and explore the inner moral thinking and external social system of human beings through speculation." He spoke firmly, and held up the ordinary green wine jar towards the sun, as if to pay homage to someone from afar.

At this time, the temperature of the sun is not as terrifying as it is at noon, and it seems gentle.

The trees outside the window are verdant and green, and the scenery is very pleasant.

The convict lifted the beer can and took a big sip.

Between questions and answers, he was guided by Lin Chen to the core of the question, but he felt that just thinking about and answering such a virtual question was already irritatingly difficult.

But Lin Chen actually experienced such a moral dilemma, and such an experience did not fundamentally destroy him. He remained steadfast in his faith and had a great respect for the world.

Xing Conglian looked at Lin Chen's side face as he raised his glass, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his face.

Lin Chen turned his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his expression.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Lin Chen asked as he brushed his nose with his thumb.

"So Lin Chen, what kind of choice did you make at that time?" 166 Reading Network
