In the last Philosophy class before graduation, 21 students were forced to participate in thought experiments. They jumped into the site of the nuclear catastrophe from the classroom, and if they failed to compete for a seat in the air-raid shelter, their organs would be penetrated by the radiation dust instantly, causing painful death. However, the oxygen and food in the air-raid shelter are only enough for 10 people to survive for a year. Philosophy students decide their identities and skills by drawing lots. In order to continue the lifeblood of mankind, they need to use Philosophy logic, open consultation and vote by show of hands, and select the 10 most valuable people to live in the air-raid shelter. Smart people are more qualified to stay than good people? Is the value of an engineer more important than a poet? One vote lasts one life, who should sacrifice to achieve society?
