Wild Evolution: I am the real-life Demon God!

"Cao Xuxin!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nearly collapsed on their backsides.

"What? Cao Xuxin?" Yang Jiu stared in disbelief. "You hold a grudge that deep?"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Cao Er put away his smile and said, "Thirteen may not know, but Wang Wu and Yang Jiu should have heard of it."

The reason I've remained so devoted to the base all these years is because Xu Xin has constantly brainwashed me.

"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be in this situation..."

"Speaking of her..." Wang Wu said with great emotion, "It's not just you, but so many people in the Heroes' Tomb have been captivated by her."

Seeing her dedication to the base back then, I felt somewhat ashamed of myself.

But you have to admit that, despite the different views, from her perspective, you really can't find fault with her.

She truly dedicated everything to the base.

She's also the purest person I've ever met.

"Give me a break," Yang Jiu retorted immediately. "Was she purely innocent?"

She's completely insane.

People have different opinions about Xu Xin.

Meng Shisan did not express his opinion on this issue.

"What names are you planning to change to?" Cao Erxiao asked.

"Yang Jiulang," Yang Jiu said, "I lost all eight of my older brothers and sisters, so I'll call him Jiulang, at least to remember them."

As he spoke, he looked at Meng Shisan, who, without thinking, blurted out, "Meng Cheng'an, I don't know why, but I just feel that's what I should be called."

Just now, that name flashed through his mind.

"Cheng'an? Cheng'an is good, it means peace for ten thousand generations." Cao Er immediately commented.

"Then I'll call myself Wang Bin, the 'Bin' meaning 'good at both literary and martial arts.'" Wang Wu, standing to the side, also racked his brains to change his name.

As they talked, they started renaming their own children.

Although a name is just a symbol, it should not be a serial number.

This is why everyone wants to change their names.

……

After an unknown amount of time, once everyone had finished changing their names, Cao Er asked, "Thirteen, what are your plans for those people in the square?"

We naturally trust you, after all, we all come from the same lineage of pioneers. Even if we haven't roamed the wilderness together, we still have a sense of mutual respect.

But those people might not be the same…

"That's right." Wang Wu quickly added, "Cao Er is actually right about some things. With Bei Dou Chen and Winston causing such a commotion, the rift between everyone will only deepen in the future."

Even if no one says it outright, it's hard to expect them to trust the people around them anymore.

Without the foundation of trust, these more than 10,000 people were like a pile of loose sand.

It can even be disintegrated from within.

For you, this is not an aid, but rather a hidden danger.

At this point, everyone fell silent.

Indeed, despite their large numbers, in the current situation, who dares to trust the people around them?

"It is indeed a troublesome matter," Meng Shisan said after thinking for a moment. "I do have a rough idea, what do you think?"

"What are your thoughts?" Cao Er asked.

"Four words," Meng Shisan said, "Those who harm others, shall be killed. Everyone must abide by this rule."

"How exactly do you mean it?" Yang Jiu asked. "If it's just that, I doubt it's very convincing."

"This is what I think..." Meng Shisan explained, "From now on, if anyone senses that one of us has malicious intentions, they can kill him without bearing any responsibility."

More than 10,000 people, each of whom is a law enforcer.

Therefore, unless Beidou Chen and Winston take control of everyone at once, like they did today, it will be impossible for them to cause trouble among us.

"You..." Yang Jiu said after a long while, "It really is a very superficial idea."

Although those guys in the square also had this intention, and we all thought so too.

But doing this makes it easy for others to take advantage of the situation.

What do you think about it?

What if someone uses this rule to commit murder indiscriminately?

Perhaps they had a grudge against each other in the past, and this just happened to give him a legitimate and legal opportunity to retaliate.

The human heart is unfathomable, and cannot be fathomed.

"So there's still room for improvement," Meng Shisan said. "We're all here, let's discuss it?"

"In my opinion, vigilante justice should not be encouraged unless it can be clearly established that the person committed an act of harming others."

"But in this way, even if you find out that he is doing something to harm others, you let him go just because he hasn't taken action yet?"

But once he takes action, is it too late?

Yang Jiu pondered for a long time before saying, "What do you think of this?"

If it is clear that someone has harmed another person's life, anyone has the right to enforce the law.

And without bearing any criminal responsibility, we call it heroic law enforcement.

But if you only suspect that this person has done, is doing, or is about to do something that harms others.

You can also enforce the law.

But afterwards, the law enforcement officer had to commit suicide; I call that fearless law enforcement.

In other words, you can enforce the law as long as you suspect him of something, but the prerequisite for doing so is that you risk your life to identify him.

This also eliminates the possibility of arbitrary law enforcement.

After all, law enforcement comes at a price.

"You're being too radical." After hearing him say that, Cao Er shook his head. "This will also dampen the enthusiasm of many people."

Even if there is solid evidence that someone is suspected of doing something to harm others.

You're the hero who saved everyone, but you have to die for him. Would you be willing to do that?

"That's why it's called fearless law enforcement," Yang Jiu said, shrugging. "If law enforcers weren't put in shackles, believe me, countless people would have died after this law was enacted."

If suspicion alone can govern the law, then there are simply too many people to be suspected.

Meng Shisan pondered for a moment and said, "How about we make a slight modification?"

Suspicion of someone's potential actions allows for law enforcement.

However, a rigorous investigation must be conducted afterwards.

If the investigators' suspicions are found to be true, the investigators will not be held liable.

However, if the investigation reveals that there may be a case of wrongful conviction.

Based on the principle that the benefit of doubt should accrue to the defendant, this law enforcement officer must pay with his life.

However, he should be allowed to die as a hero.

Furthermore, if an investigation reveals that law enforcement officers have falsely accused someone, those officers must be executed.

This will prevent any opportunity for someone to exploit the loophole.

"I think this will work," Cao Er nodded and said. "It perfectly embodies the essence of the phrase 'Those who harm others, shall be killed.'"

"Let's leave it at that for now. This is the first time we've encountered this situation, so let's just feel our way forward." Yang Jiu nodded in agreement.

He didn't have a better solution at the moment.

Wang Wu, standing to the side, said, "But ultimately, this is only for those who are willing to abide by the rules."

Do you think Beidou Chen and Winston will abide by our rules?

Whoever suffers these consequences, who will take these rules seriously?

"You want to set rules for them?" Meng Shisan shook his head and laughed. "You've got the direction wrong. We set these rules precisely to guard against them."

The law enforced by law enforcement officers is specifically aimed at them.

After all, nobody knows if they will control us to do anything else.

Don't be fooled by their claim that they've shut down all our backdoors; judging from everyone's reactions, hardly anyone believes them, they just haven't said anything.

Now that trust has collapsed, and we cannot rebuild it, let's put a shackle on it.

"This is currently the best, and only, solution."

"Indeed," Yang Jiu said. "Mutual suspicion and distrust are inevitable, but only in this way can we reassure everyone."

I think we should call it the Four-Character Convention.

Everyone must abide by this agreement; even if there are still doubts, it's still much better.
