Synopsis

Slow-burning soft science fiction, complete world view, rigorous logic, not a cool novel The entire city is permanently fixed in 1996. The streets and alleys are intact, the buildings are intact, and everything is familiar as usual, except that the human world is completely dead. There are no zombies running rampant here, no weird tricks, and no superpowers or systems to hide behind. There is only a real world where time has stagnated, and countless anomalies that are vaguely contradictory. Being stranded alone in an empty city, we can only repair water and electricity from scratch, improve infrastructure, and build a stable foothold with realistic and rigorous civil engineering and electrical regulations. Survival is only the foundation, and the truth is the core of the fog. Handwriting that flashes and melts for no reason, frequently disturbed spatial phenomena, unknown traces isolated by invisible barriers... This seemingly quiet empty city never really stands still. All illogical details, all unexplainable disturbances, point to a completely blocked truth of the world. There are no clever manipulations or forced plots throughout the whole process. In the unchanging dead time and space, while surviving steadily, the underlying rules of this static world are slowly dismantled. Soft science fiction~~No wind, no strange beasts, no superpowers. Realistic, slow-burning, suspenseful rules The truth will not be revealed easily.

The trip to the volcano that I wrote about turned out to be a road that the author actually rode on! Must be five stars Returning to Tianjin from Inner Mongolia is awesome

Of course I would give it full marks if I judge it myself, hehe. This novel is my first attempt, and it is indeed not very well written, but I am slowly recreating the story that I started to conceive in my mind 20 years ago. The requirements I set for myself are that this is a real world, a real story, all characters' psychological behaviors must conform to their corresponding identities and cognitions, and all plot development must be completed within the framework of the world view. All the puzzles, the visions. There must also be corresponding theoretical basis. All my ideas must be logical and self-consistent, except for the scope of science and technology that exceeds the level of human cognition. Therefore, it is easy to fall into the teaching and popular science-like writing style in some paragraphs. I hope everyone will not be disgusted and focus on thinking about the ideological boundaries when facing objective difficulties.
