There was chaos on the upper floors of the base, and almost all the internal guards who used to maintain order had left their posts, which made the scene noisy.

Li Mingfeng and Lin Chuan ran out of the room, and saw Zeng Yu with three or four internal guards dragging a person to this side.

"It's not me! Not me! The man struggled desperately, but was pressed to the ground by Zeng Yu and them. He looked to be in his mid-thirties, thin as a bamboo pole, with fresh footprints all over his face and one dark eye.

"Go back to your posts!" Li Mingfeng first shouted to the internal guards, more and more people are crowding this way, if it is not handled carefully, it is likely to cause a stampede, and the first thing he thinks of is not to figure out the origin of the matter, but to restore order.

Lin Chuan also helped persuade people to leave, and after a few minutes, although there were still people around, people's enthusiasm had more or less subsided.

"What's wrong?" Li Mingfeng frowned and asked, he became more and more helpless about Zeng Yu's personality who always made things bigger.

"He's a thief!" Zeng Yu finally calmed down a little, and he said to Lin Chuan and Li Mingfeng.

"It's not me! Not mine! The man began to struggle again, Zeng Yu kicked him without hesitation, his body arched like a shrimp, and he no longer had the ability to argue.

"This man came to the base four days ago and was assigned to live in the corridor to the east." Zeng Yu introduced. "Just now we started to organize people to adjust the residence according to Brother Li's request, he wrapped six or seven cans in the quilt and wanted to fish in troubled waters, and we showed up!"

He lifted an old quilt from behind his back and placed it in front of the man, and one corner of the quilt cover was torn open, revealing the metallic sheen peculiar to tin cans. Zeng Yu lifted the quilt and shook it vigorously, and seven cans of sardines rolled out of the quilt cover.

The crowd of onlookers suddenly became uproar, and the upper floors were mostly inhabited by old people, who had hardly experienced hunger, but such supplies were also a luxury that was out of reach for them, which made them immediately angry.

"The newcomers are thieves!" Soon someone called out. "They've stolen all of our stuff!"

"Shoot him!" "Get them out!" Immediately, someone began to chimed in, and shouted even more excessively.

It wasn't one or two people shouting, such voices came from almost every direction, and the crowd, which had finally calmed down, began to push again.

Lin Chuan frowned, he knew that there was a confrontation in the base, but he didn't know that the situation was already so strict.

"Lock people up first, and persuade everyone to go back!" He immediately said to Li Mingfeng.

Zeng Yu was still looking at the crowd around him smugly, and Li Mingfeng slapped him from behind. "Look what you're up again! Lock people up! He said angrily.

"Where?" Zeng Yu touched the back of his head with some grievances and asked.

"Shut him up in my room first, close the door, and find someone to guard him." Lin Chuan replied. "Persuade everyone to go back, and then bring all the management to a meeting!"

The chaos did not subside until half an hour later, and several more brawls broke out between the newcomer and the old man, and this was the first time Lin Chuan had seen such a stern conflict in the base, and he angrily separated the people who were fighting and threw them heavily on the floor.

"You want to fight, don't you?" He said to them. "All at me! Come on! ”

People cringed, no matter how impulsive people were, it was impossible for them to challenge Lin Chuan, and they slowly separated.

But when Lin Chuan walked back to the conference room full of anger, there were still many people waiting there, hoping to see a "just" verdict.

"You can't cover them anymore! Look at what they are! Someone shouted at Lin Chuan, and he walked into the conference room without saying a word.

"Everyone knows what's going on, right?" Li Mingfeng asked straight to the point.

Most of the people nodded, but there were still people like Lu Guangping and Chen Jian who had been busy at the lower level and shook their heads blankly, so Li Mingfeng asked Zeng Yu to tell the matter again.

Liu Bin and several other newcomer representatives bit their lips and didn't say a word, while Leng Suan and the others sat in the corner expressionlessly as usual.

No one doubts the authenticity of the matter, although Zeng Yu sometimes does things very muddy, but he is not the kind of person who will blame others. What's more, food theft has always been happening, and the internal guard can often find empty cans or packaging bags that have been secretly discarded, Zeng Yu has been trying to catch a typical one to deter others, and today finally such a thing happened, which has long been expected by everyone.

"Do you have any opinion on this person's guilt?" Li Mingfeng asked.

No one answered.

Being convicted of stealing seven cans may be an incredible thing before the end.

It is unlikely that the owner of such a stolen amount will even go to the police, and the police will definitely not open an investigation for this.

But in the last days, such a number can even be said to be "huge" and "extraordinarily huge", and it is impossible to ignore it in any way.

There are countless stories told by newcomers who were robbed and killed because they carried an object that appeared to be canned.

Someone looked at Lin Chuan, his face was ugly, but there was no obvious inclination, which made those who were ready to speculate only continue to wait and see for the time being.

"Then we can directly discuss the next topic, what to do with him?" Li Mingfeng asked.

There was still silence.

"Is there a lot of such things?" After entering the conference room, Lin Chuan asked for the first time. "Why did people outside react so strongly?"

Lu Guangping looked at Li Mingfeng and nodded. "It is true that a lot of food was stolen during this time, but there is no evidence that it was all done by new people."

"Who else but them?" Zeng Yu asked. "Before they came in, there was very little like that."

"You only caught this one, you can't jump to conclusions so lightly." Liu Bin said immediately. "It's not just new people living in the places where the theft happens, but a lot of old people live in those places, and unless you find evidence, no one is as suspicious."

"Of course you would say that." Zeng Yu snorted, in front of Lin Chuan, he was still able to control himself. "You're a newcomer yourself."

"Stop arguing!" Li Mingfeng slapped the table heavily, making him feel embarrassed by such a thing in front of Lin Chuan, which made him feel that he was no longer in his control. "Which department is this person from? Who is his team leader? ”

One of the newcomers in the management raised his hand, and the person who was caught was called Xiang Chun, a survivor under his charge, because he didn't have any useful skills, he hadn't been assigned to any department for the time being, but he was assigned to the corridor where he lived, and an old man was responsible for leading them as a team leader.

The team leader was quickly found, and in his account, Xiang Chun's hands and feet were indeed unclean, and less than a day after he was assigned to this group, he stole towels, soap, and razors from another group, for which he was slapped several times.

"I scolded him severely, and he promised never to steal again, I really don't know when he stole the can, and I didn't see him eat it." The team leader said with a sad face. "He has hands and feet, and I can't keep an eye on him twenty-four hours a day!"

The team leader was beaten back, and the people in the room had to continue discussing what to do with him.

Kill him?

Not to mention that this will definitely attract Lin Chuan's opposition, and the people here really won't decide to let a living person die for the sake of seven cans. It is a fact that there is a shortage of food, but Lin Chuan can bring back at least hundreds of such cans at a time, which makes the sentencing standard in everyone's hearts somewhat loose.

But it is impossible not to be serious, even Liu Bin, who is a newcomer, does not have the luxury of hoping that this matter can be let go gently. As the first thief to be caught, everyone is watching the outcome of this matter, and if a severe punishment is not given, such a thing will go uncontrollable.

"Are there any other similar incidents?" Wang Qinian asked.

"I found a lot of food that was hidden, but it was all abandoned, and I think I did it after I found out about him." Zhou Tao replied.

"That scared them at least temporarily." Wang Qinian said in a low voice.

The conversation between him and Zhou Tao made it clear that the trial that must be made now has become more important, and if it is handled properly, perhaps the number of thefts will be greatly reduced from today onwards.

"Flogging, huh?" Liu Bin was embarrassed to be the first to propose Jianyi. "Whip him in public."

"Nope." Liang Jin immediately objected, and people thought she would say reasons such as humanitarianism, but the reasons she gave were more convincing. "If you hit less, it won't work at all, and if you hit it hard, should our medical department save him? If I have an infection or complications, should I be rescued? If you don't save it, what's the difference between it and the death penalty? The workload of the medical staff is already very high, stop making trouble for us. ”

"Then tie him up to the stairs up and down the stairs so everyone can see him." Liu Bin mentioned yì again.

"How many days is tied? How to tie it? Gagged or not? To give or not to eat? Let not let go to the toilet? Wang Qinian objected. You can't send someone to torture him every day, it's too light. ”

"Forced labor?"

"It's too light, there's no heavy work to do right now."

"Confinement."

"Where are the available rooms? If there is an empty room, it will not be his turn to enjoy. ”

The room was quiet again.

In the confined underground space, there are really only a few things that can be done. In such a world, it is easy to kill a person, but it is difficult to deal with a person seriously.

"Exile, huh?" Leng Su'an said suddenly.

People looked at him, and everyone had long been accustomed to him being a mascot on the side, and no one thought that he would suddenly propose to build a mascot at this time.

And he looked at Lin Chuan, Li Mingfeng would not give him any chance, and all he could count on was Lin Chuan.

Could this be an opportunity to regain control of the situation?

He looked at Lin Chuan's expression and said cautiously but firmly: "The rules of the base are publicized by someone when everyone comes in, and everyone knows it. We told them exactly what the punishment would be for those who broke the rules - fines, confinement, or expulsion from the base. The current situation is that because of the chaos of management some time ago, the base has begun to get out of control, and we must set a benchmark to re-establish the authority of the internal guard, and make people fear the rules again. To achieve such an end, the punishment is too light, the confinement is unconditional and not shocking enough, and only the expulsion of him can achieve such an effect. ”

"What's the difference between that and letting him die?" Liu Bin immediately objected. "Everyone knows that a person can't live outside, so what's the difference between kicking him out and killing him?"

"He may well die, but there is also hope of survival, which is better than killing him directly." Leng Su'an looked at Lin Chuan and said. "Troubled times require heavy canonization, and only by making it clear to everyone the price to pay for doing something wrong can we put an end to this chaos. A moment of soft-heartedness will only make more and more people make mistakes, and eventually the entire base will be destroyed by chaos. ”

Lin Chuan raised his head.

Leng Su'an nodded at him and shrank back into his corner. His goal has been achieved, he doesn't care how this person will be disposed of, he only cares about Lin Chuan's attitude, and it is obvious that Lin Chuan is not satisfied with the status quo. He has successfully said that the root of the problem is management chaos, and also put forward his own proposal, it doesn't matter how Lin Chuan will decide, the important thing is to let Lin Chuan know that he is the one who can solve the problem.

Li Mingfeng looked at him angrily, but Leng Su'an didn't look at him from beginning to end.

"I agree." Zeng Yu said. Leng Su'an's words are very appetizing to him, and he should indeed establish the authority of the internal guard.

"Agreed." "That's all there is to it." More and more people whispered.

Only Liu Bin was still whispering. "It's no different than killing him......"

No one here knows better than him that a person will pay any price to escape the horrors of the last days.

"Then expel him." Lin Chuan finally nodded. He saw that most of the people relaxed after he said this, only Liu Bin's eyes showed the sadness of the dead rabbit and the fox.

Lin Chuan rescued more than 800 people from the ruins of the city, and knew very well what the outside world meant to these people, and such a punishment frightened them more than any other way.

But that person won't die, Lin Chuan said to himself in his heart.

As long as he could hold out near the entrance of the cave for a few hours, and when the situation calmed down, Lin Chuan would take the opportunity to go out to look for supplies and send him to the Zhoushan Islands.

It wasn't too difficult for him to carry a man around, he could at least send him to the other side of the Broken Bridge, and let him face the unknown life and fate of the Zhoushan Islands on his own.

He won't come back here, he's dead for the rest.

"Give him food and water for ten days, and then expel him." Again, he said, glad he had found a solution for both.
