It just so happened that the books in her dorm were almost finished, and he was trying to make up some new ones.

Song Tingchuan's homeroom teacher is particularly interesting, and the books he recommends, Su Nan thinks should not be bad.

"Strange Case in the Cave."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows, "I seem to have heard of this book." ”

"Huh?"

"Isn't it about five explorers who are trapped in a remote cave, running out of water and food, and have no way to be rescued in a short time, in order to survive and wait for rescue, one of the team members suggested that everyone could draw lots to eat one of the members and sacrifice him to save the other four."

"But the original proposer of this plan withdrew the proposal before the draw, but the other four people ignored it and still went to roll the dice, and the result of the dice roll happened to be the original proposer."

"So that man was killed and eaten by his companions, is that the story?"

Song Tingchuan was a little surprised:

"You've seen it?"

Su Nan shook his head:

"Yes, a senior brother of mine mentioned this story to me before and suggested that I read it, but I didn't like it very much when I heard it, so I didn't read it."

After all, in Su Nan's opinion, the four rescued team members were too selfish.

At that time, Su Nan avoided the word "selfish", so he didn't take this book to heart at all.

At this time, listening to Song Tingchuan mention it, it rekindled his curiosity.

"So what? What else is said later in the book? ”

Song Tingchuan pinched her paws, "Are you sure you want me to say it?" Spoilers involved. ”

Su Nan glanced at him:

"You can penetrate it, I'm not afraid."

"Okay then."

The two walked on the tree-lined paths of the campus, and Su Nan listened to Song Tingchuan's eloquent words.

"After eating the original proposer, the four men survived until the arrival of the rescue team and were rescued, but they were later prosecuted for homicide and sentenced to death by hanging."

Su Nan nodded:

"Well, reasonable."

Song Tingchuan looked down at her:

"Is it reasonable?"

"Huh? Is it reasonable? ”

"The book is not over here, the latter is the point, the whole book is actually around this case, more than a dozen ** officials think about this problem from different angles, the answer can be said to be strange, I just throw a few questions in the book to you, you may not think so?"

"For example?"

"If life is above all else, then is cannibalism legal in order to survive? Does the agreement on the disposition of life made by the five persons have legal effect? Does this legal effect have a bearing on life? ”

"Eating someone else's life for the sake of one's own life, which is the higher priority between self-protection and intentional harm? What does secular ethics think about the verdict in this case? Can a person's death at his own suggestion be counted as suicide? ”

"If the law is to protect the interests of the majority, then if four out of five people are protected, should the law consider four people to be fine? And for example, how do you define life? Did it fit the hypothesis that if you didn't eat people, you would die in the scene at that time? How do you test these assumptions? ”、

Su Nan was stunned when he heard this.

Song Tingchuan looked at Su Nan's stupid appearance, and said with a smile:

"How? Do you still think the hangings of those four men are justified? ”

Su Nan fell silent.

This was the first time that Su Nan realized the profundity and breadth of natural law.
