The Observation Box 观察箱
A slow-burn soft sci-fi story with a fully realized world and rigorous logic. Not a power fantasy. The entire city is permanently frozen in 1996. The streets are intact, the buildings have not crumbled, and everything is as familiar as ever. Only human life has fallen utterly silent. There are no hordes of zombies, no supernatural hauntings, and no special powers or Systems to fall back on. Only a real world trapped in time, filled with countless subtle anomalies. Stranded alone in an empty cit

Aquarium Civilization 鱼缸文明
The Dark Forest theory has never been just about shooting and hiding. There's another, more terrifying possibility: we're fish kept in a fishbowl, forever unable to leap out and see the observers beyond it. A hypercivilization silently watches humanity in its fishbowl, purely for entertainment. We press onward through the darkness. Stay content, and all remains as it is. Break through the walls, and hope is slim. Stay content, or break through the walls? A sweet dream, or a despairing reality?
