Wang is an ordinary worker at the moon base. He stares blankly at the wall with a blank expression. When he was on the earth, he was a senior engineer of a multinational company at a young age, with a bright future, but on the moon where there are many talents, he is just an ordinary skilled worker.
Now, he is sitting in his room, in front of him is a small iron table with a bottle of Laobaigan on it. Although it is not a famous wine, it is his favorite drink. Perhaps, this is also the last bottle of old white in the entire human world.
When he first landed on the moon, everyone was allowed to carry five kilograms of personal belongings. He was an alcoholic, so he directly brought four kilograms of liquor.
And the four kilograms of alcohol have not been touched for a whole year. In his words, "drinking does not work, and work does not drink." Earth blesses.
However, everything was in vain. In just a few days, the wine was almost consumed, and only the last bottle was left... This is a drink to relieve sorrow!
However, he drank his sorrows away with wine and looked at the photos in his hand. The smiles of his wife and daughter were as clear as they were just seen yesterday. Wang felt a pain in his heart, and his eyes turned red.
He picked up the wine bottle and took a sip. The pungent taste was like gasoline, instantly burning his entire throat, choking him to tears.
But this physical reaction is far inferior to the psychological pain. He really longed for a good hangover, drunk upside down, forgetting his troubles, forgetting everything...
Sitting opposite was his roommate Zhao Chao, who also accompanied Wang with a sad face. The two of them didn't say a word, they just drank wildly, went to sleep when they were drunk, continued to drink when they woke up, and then got drunk again, and so on and on, four days of incomparable decadence passed...
At this time, the TV screen suddenly lit up, and Jack's figure appeared. He said on TV, "Everyone, I am Jack, the temporary leader of the moon base. Now broadcast a message: just now, we found out the truth about the explosion on the earth!"
It was such a sentence at the beginning, which could not help but attract the attention of Wang and Chao. They all looked at the TV and their throats moved a few times. The truth of the earth explosion is what they are most concerned about, or in other words, it is what everyone is most concerned about.
"I'm sorry to tell you that in the past few days, we have not received any distress signals from the earth, and there are no escaped spacecraft except for the 'Victory'. So... let us observe five minutes of silence."
This sentence almost pronounced the death of 7 billion people, like adding salt to the wound, stinging everyone's nerves, and in just an instant, faint cries came from the entire base.
But this is a fact that human beings must accept. Jack believes that short-term pain is worse than long-term pain. Only by piercing the illusions in the heart and revealing the truth can we pass through this stage faster.
Wang's face was also ashen. Although he had long since given up hope in his heart, the cruel truth was not so easy to accept. This kind of straightforward truth still made him extremely uncomfortable.
"Now, let me tell you the truth about the earth's explosion." After five minutes, Jack made a gesture, and the TV screen began to play every segment of the earth's destruction: from the super explosion in the southern hemisphere of the earth, to the complete fragmentation, Every moment is crystal clear.
"Look, everyone, this is a high-resolution image taken by a lunar communication satellite. There is no doubt that the culprit for the destruction of the earth is the super explosion that occurred in the southern hemisphere!"
"After investigation, we found that it was not caused by terrorists, nor was it caused by an asteroid hitting the earth. After comparing various data indicators, scientists found that it was not a natural phenomenon, but—"
"It's an explosion caused by high technology for unknown reasons!"
Jack raised his voice, and played a graph from the slide, "Look, everyone, this is the data recorded by the instrument just before the explosion: the angular velocity of the earth increased by 3.1% in vain, while The earth's gravitational force on the moon has also increased by 1.76/10,000. This is very abnormal!"
"At the moment of the explosion, our instrument detected gamma rays equivalent to 2 million 'Big Billion' level nuclear bombs!"
"And we humans have not yet possessed weapons of such an energy level! We humans do not have such weapons that can even change the gravity of the earth."
"Then, the greatest possibility is that an unknown alien civilization has launched a devastating blow to mankind!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath, but after thinking about it carefully, there was some truth. The existence of aliens is well known these days, as it is no secret that there are spaceships from alien civilizations on the moon.
But are aliens really friendly? I'm afraid not. A large number of science fiction works have depicted life-and-death wars among civilizations, the most famous of which is the "Dark Forest Theory"...
When all this really happened to human beings, everyone felt heavy and breathless, some were angry, some were fearful, and some were desperate. People fell silent, silently digesting what they heard.
Wang's expression was unmoved, but his actions behind the scenes betrayed him. His tightly clenched fist even trembled slightly, and his five fingers could be said to have turned white and blue.
This is incomparable anger, the original despair and pain turned into the fuel of anger, burning blazingly. After a while, Wang let go of his hands, which was a kind of extreme calm of anger.
"Fortunately, we humans are not extinct because of this. Our moon base is still alive - 51,223 people." Jack said word by word.
"51,223 people is an exact number, including you, me, and all of us alive... Among them are black people, white people, and yellow race people. They are the last fire of mankind. Any one of them is related to the future the continuation of humanity."
"Our goal is: to survive! Not only for revenge, not only for human civilization, but also for those who have passed away. Parents and family members far away in heaven must hope that we can live and live well... "
"Comrades, stand up and unite for this goal, each of us must do our best!"
"We are the last human beings, and we will fight for the continuation of human beings! From now on, we will be regardless of nationality or race... We must stand up and lean on each other in order to live well!" Jack said emotionally. Next, he briefly talked about the food crisis , but mainly focused on the positive aspects. As long as people work hard, these problems can be solved.
Hearing this, Wang couldn't help crying, and he murmured, "I came to the earth for the annual salary of 300,000 US dollars , so that I can live a good life when I go back...but now my parents are gone, My wife and daughter are gone, so what's the point of my life?"
His vocal cords were burned by alcohol, and he hadn't spoken for so many days. When he said this sentence, his voice was hoarse and terrible.
Zhao Chao, who was sitting opposite, poured a glass of wine by himself, drank it in one breath, and coughed so hotly. He stood up suddenly and said loudly, "Wang, do people need any reason to live? I don't have a wife, and my parents have passed away long ago, but I will always remember my mother's last words."
"She said: Chao, you are not too young, so hurry up and marry a wife! This is what mom is most worried about."
At this point, Chao choked up, "I want to live on, marry a wife, have a child, no, two ...I want to be worthy of my mother...I can't let him down!"
"I want to live, I don't have a girlfriend yet..." Zhao Chao couldn't continue talking.
After hearing this, Wang lowered his head, not knowing whether he was crying or what, "You also want me to live well, don't you?"
"Come on, this is the last cup!"
