What would you do if suddenly everyone was gone and you were the only one left.

I remember hearing this question when I was a child, and I remember that my elementary school teacher first asked this question to my classmates. Of course, the teacher's purpose at that time was to make us understand the importance of friendship. I don't know who said it: people are social animals, and where there are people, there is society. All the factors that make us feel unhappy: quarrels, jealousy, hatred, and even war, whether they make people angry, whether they make people lament the inherent evil of human nature, they are at least carried out by human beings. The height of civilization in modern society, the high-rise buildings rising from the ground, trap us in a dark world, while sighing at the rapid development of the city, the convenience of life, while missing the innocence of the countryside, looking forward to the body and mind can fly out of this dark and prosperous cage.

After more than five hours of thinking, I stood up from my seat, the many stars swaying back and forth in front of me, stimulating my cerebral cortex. At this point, I felt very tired, my eyes were half-squinted, and if I had a mirror, it might have looked like dead fish eyes. I closed the book with numbness, and after some inspection, I put on my black backpack, turned off all the lights in the classroom, gently closed the door, and went downstairs to the garage step by step. There is a small garage under the school building, where all kinds of motorcycles and mopeds are parked. It was already late at night, and the faint moonlight helped me with my vision, and the garage was already cut off from the already faint light, so I had to turn on my phone's flashlight. An all-black electric moped was found in the deepest part of the garage. On December 7th, the calendar says that today is "heavy snow", but it is also true to its name, and I don't think I would dare to ride a bicycle without wearing gloves or something to protect against the cold.

I glanced at my watch, and it was 11:25, which I would probably stay until every day, nervously preparing for the exam in the face of a large number of questions. I didn't think about the future or anything, but I had to work hard because I had something to do in front of me.

I put on my black over-ear headphones, and with the beep start, I drove out of the garage and into the winter night. My school is in the northeast of Sensugi City, and my home is about 4 kilometers away from the city, which can be reached within 20 minutes by car, but now the eastern section of Tohoku Avenue, the only bridge into Suginan Ward, is under construction, and I was forced to take a detour from the western section, resulting in an increase of about 2 kilometers of travel, and the deafening sound of construction is incessant day and night, but I don't know when it will be completed.

Chisugi City is located in the south, with everyspring and lush trees all year round. Although it is a thousand cedars, not only many trees, but also a lot of mountains, you can see a lot of towering mountains in the city, my home is located in Shannan District, a little further east, there are many ridges to form a natural barrier, I remember when I was a child, I often look for ponds on the mountain to fish, no bait will be taken on the spot, find a wooden stick towards the wet and soft mud to explore, can always catch so many unlucky earthworms, broken into four or five halves is a natural good bait. Not only that, I remember that there are many temples on some mountains: the Monkey King Temple, the Old Man's Mansion, etc., and every Chinese New Year, you have to follow your family to burn incense and fire cannons to pray for peace and prosperity. Nowadays, it is rarely seen, and with the acceleration of urbanization, there are fewer and fewer mountains to the east, replaced by branches of various large companies, and the facades of high-rise buildings are paved with glass and sparkle in the sun, making people have to sigh "wow". For me, this is not a bad thing, after all, I can feel the benefits of urban development, and there is no reason to oppose it.

While admiring the rapid change of the city, I faced the empty streets, where there were very few cars left, but I often saw trucks whistling by with tons of cement and gravel. Every time I saw these behemoths from afar, I felt a pang of fear, and I unconsciously slowed down and drove away from them. I often see videos of electric cars being run over by trucks on the Internet, and I feel a chill down my spine when I think about it.

Turn on the right turn signal, I drove away from a large intersection, which means that I have left Sugibei District, because of the detour, I went west along the main road of the city, and the commercial buildings on both sides of the main road have been turned off, but there are still all kinds of couples holding hands and walking on the pedestrian street, which is quite lively, remembering that there seems to be a new movie released today, and the movie theater is open all night, maybe they are here to watch a movie.

After going around, I returned to Shannan District, where I had lived for 17 years, drove into Sendo Avenue, rode 1 kilometer, turned into Xiando East Road, and the breath of life came to my face, although it was almost 12 o'clock, but this seemed to be the beginning of the nightlife of southerners, spread out in a row of snack stalls in the alleys, small tables and small benches filled the sidewalk, and men with beer bellies who were not afraid of cold wore short sleeves, eating barbecue, guessing codes or telling stories loudly, and beer bottles were all over the ground. The owner of the food stall expertly prepares the food, and a high-powered fan sits next to it, blowing the smoke mixed with the smell of barbecue into the sky. There were quite a few couples on the way, students who returned late like me. There is no shortage of people here, even in the early hours of the morning. I slowed down and pulled over in front of a store. It was an herbal tea shop, I often ate desserts and drank herbal tea here, the signature tea is particularly bitter, but I enjoy this bitter taste very much, no matter how hot it is, a cup of bitter tea goes down, and the fire quenches my thirst. There were quite a few people who bought herbal tea, and I waited ten minutes to buy it, and I glanced at my watch, and it was 11:58.

"It's so late today..."

I muttered to myself, unscrewed the cap of the tea and drank it in one gulp, today is not as bitter as yesterday.

"Hurry up and drink! My mouth was ulcerated. ”

"Don't! No! It's bitter! It's not delicious! “

It is not uncommon for a mother-like woman to reprimand her child and force him to drink herbal tea.

I threw away the empty bottles, put my hands in my coat pockets, and slowly walked to my car......

At this time, a strange feeling came to my face, as if the noisy sound around me penetrated my eardrums, drip-drip, the watch's prompt sound came, this is the sound of the hour chime, indicating that it has reached twelve o'clock, but I only feel that the first three sounds are clear, and the back drips are as viscous as listening to them in water.

Call......................

The cold wind peculiar to winter slapped against my face.

Drip, drip, drip.

The sound of the watch continues.

But this is no longer the case.

I was sleepy-eyed and sleepy, and my eyes suddenly widened.

Goose bumps.

"What's going on......"

What would you do if suddenly everyone disappeared and you were the only one left?

I remembered this question, how did I answer it at the time?

[No matter how much my gaze sweeps, the street that was bustling with activity just now is empty. 】

[It's as if the world has evaporated, no, the world has evaporated, which is an idiom used to describe such a state of affairs. 】

"How...... What's going on? ”

I was speechless, and looked towards the place where the mother and daughter had been standing just now—it was empty, of course.

The food stalls were empty of steaming oden, the induction cooker was still humming, the charcoal from the barbecue was burned red, and the sound of sparks exploding. Beer bottles all over the floor, barbecue sticks, and hot supper...... Everything is so normal. The only anomaly is that all the people who existed have disappeared.

"Hey ......"

To make sure it wasn't a dream, I pinched myself hard.

"Painful ......"

The worst thing happened, and if this wasn't my vision, then I wasn't in the middle of something that science couldn't solve.

I took a tentative step – of course nothing happened.

"Anyone...?"

I shouted, my voice a little nervous, of course, I couldn't do something so unusual and not be nervous. - Of course, nothing happened.

I still don't have the means to understand and trust the status quo. I looked at the streets that were deserted, and the pedestrian streets, which usually felt very narrow, now seemed so empty. I looked in front of a few stalls and slammed the beer bottle on the floor, and it was ...... There was even an echo in the street, which really startled me.

The sound faded away—silence ate my brain again, and for the first time I felt so terrible.

Ten minutes passed, and nothing had changed.

Whether it's a comic or a novel, what kind of fantasy does the protagonist have, shouldn't someone explain the situation? Whether I want to embark on an adventurous path to conquer the Demon King, or become a god in the new world, someone should explain the plot - ah, yes, there are no people here.

"So what should I do?"

"yes, what should I do?"

Even if I talk to myself, I still can't find a solution, let alone any solutions, nothing, and if there is no such thing as a carrier, everything will be unsustainable.

"Did Robinson feel that way back then?" I wondered how he survived on a deserted island. I felt a surge of admiration in my heart...... How can I still have the heart to think about this?

- Call Lianwen first. I thought about it, and immediately took out my phone, opened the call log, and clicked on the first ...... Toot Toot Toot (call failed). I remember someone asked before: Can I watch TV after a power outage? It seems to be the same situation now, there is no one, who the hell can I call.

What would you do if suddenly everyone disappeared and you were the only one left?

I pondered this question as I looked at the mountains stretching east of Chisugi City, which seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see, and the end of the mountains disappeared into the yellowing moonlight. Because of the cold air mass in Siberia, the fierce northwest wind harassed the land, like a child who did not know the height of the sky, and swooped down on the mountains to the east, blowing the cedar trees in the mountains to bend over.

A chill enveloped the city.
