As tensions between men and women escalate, a social experiment called “The City Without Men” is put on the table.
The organization running the experiment chooses Qingshi City:
If more than 80 percent of local women vote in favor, every adult man in the city must leave and go live in Baishi Town, cut off from outside aid.
The experiment will be livestreamed from start to finish, testing a grand social experiment:
[Once men have completely disappeared, will the world become safer, freer, and better?]
When the voting page appeared, Xu Qingyan was busy complaining that her boyfriend, Chen Mo, was useless, unromantic, and covered in grease, good for nothing but fixing machines and doing dirty work.
She looked at the words on the screen and clicked with a cold laugh:
“I agree.”
In the end, the approval rate reached 87 percent.
Chen Mo and more than a hundred thousand men were sent to the abandoned town of Baishi, where the water and power had been cut off.
The women stayed in the intact urban district, with office buildings, shopping malls, hospitals, subways, power grids, internet, factories, and every modern convenience.
They thought everything would keep running after the men left, until society ground to a halt, supplies ran short, and order collapsed completely.
Only then did Xu Qingyan finally try to win back Chen Mo, who had already left, with tears and pleas...
