Annihilation of the solar system

The warm winter sun shines loosely on the magnificent concrete forest, covering the anxious and impetuous city with a soft veil. It is as quiet and lazy as a cat that has just woken up. High-rise buildings are springing up everywhere like bamboo shoots.

, the same high-rise buildings abound. In an inconspicuous corner, a boy in his twenties was wrapped in a quilt and curled up on the sofa, sleeping deeply.

The empty beer bottles were scattered around the sofa, and there were several boxes of leftover takeout food on the coffee table, which was obviously not eaten in one day. Only bare nails were left where the photo wall was, and the photo frames were randomly discarded on the ground.

The photos have disappeared.

The sun had already penetrated through the cracks in the curtains. Although the boy was sleeping deeply, he was not comfortable, and sometimes a painful expression flashed across his face.

The sudden ringing of the phone saved him from the painful nightmare. He reached for the phone from the quilt and squinted his eyes to see that the caller ID was the landlord. This made him look very impatient and covered the phone under the quilt.

After closing her eyes tightly for a while, she finally answered the phone. A woman's voice came from the phone:

"Li Linjie, I'm the landlord. I called you last week, and your rent is already a week behind."

Li Linjie's voice was still a little hazy:

"Hello landlord, uh... do you think this is okay? Can I pay one month's rent first? I really... haven't thought about it well."

The landlord's attitude was obviously a little irritable:

"Didn't we agree when we signed the contract that the rent has to be paid every three months? If you don't want to rent it, I will rent it to someone else. There are still people waiting for rent. It's hard for me to deal with you this month.

....”

Li Linjie rubbed his bloodshot eyes:

"You see, I have been renting here for two years, and I have paid you the rent on time every time. Finally, give me a breakdown. After this month, I will definitely give you an answer!"

There was silence on the phone for a moment, and he said coldly:

"Okay. Just this time, if you want to rent next month, you will have to pay three months' rent. Please transfer this month's rent to me immediately."

Without waiting for him to say thank you politely, the other party hurriedly hung up the phone.

Li Linjie wanted to sit up, but when he was about to move, a spasm spread throughout his body like lightning. He had a splitting headache and his limbs were sore and weak. Maybe it was caused by excessive alcohol intake in the past few days. He was not a good drinker in the first place.

people.

He retreated into bed, picked up his cell phone and transferred one month's rent to the landlord's account. The text message immediately reminded him that the balance in his bank card was less than five digits. He looked at the text message and said:

"Deserve it!"

Looking at the messy house in front of him, with an area of ​​less than 50 square meters, he fell into confused thinking. This city had once fascinated him endlessly, but now it made him heartbroken.

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, he felt much better. He simply tidied up the messy room and opened the curtains. The bright and warm sunshine shone on him, and a warmth enveloped him.

Body. He regretted his indulgence and decadence these days.

When he saw that it was almost ten o'clock, he had no pure water, food or cigarettes at home. He was completely out of ammunition and food. He carried a big bag of garbage downstairs and threw it into the trash can, and then went to the side.

Go to the canteen to replenish it.

As soon as he entered the canteen, the chatty boss struck up a conversation with him:

"Xiao Li, are you still on vacation?"

Li Linjie was picking things on the shelves and replied absently:

"Well, the break is over soon."

Not long after, he placed a pile of instant noodles, biscuits and pure water on the counter:

"Give me another pack of cigarettes!"

The boss held a code scanner in his hand and scanned the pile of things:

"Oh, it's only ten o'clock in a few minutes. Today, you have to prepare to watch TV at ten o'clock, you know?"

Li Linjie flipped the change in his pocket and answered casually:

"Why are you watching TV at ten o'clock? I don't know."

The boss stopped what he was doing and looked at him with wide eyes, his face full of surprise:

"You don't know, the community and communication departments have informed you many times that you must watch TV or listen to the radio at ten o'clock today. Where are you looking at your phone?"

Li Linjie felt that the boss was not joking, so he opened his message box, which already contained countless unread messages. Sure enough, it was easy to find messages from the community, the communications department, and the company. The content of the messages was the same as what the store owner said.

Seeing that the time was already 9:58, he quickly picked up his things and got into the elevator.

When I got home, all the channels on the TV were gone. Only the national channel programs were left, and the female host in the program was saying:

"Important notice is about to start live broadcast. This live broadcast will be broadcast live in more than 30 languages ​​​​by major heads of state. Please adjust the language that suits you by changing the channel."

Li Linjie was a little surprised, and immediately picked up the remote control and switched the channel. Sure enough, as the host said, the language of each channel was different. This situation was unprecedented, and he felt that the situation might be serious. He quickly switched the channel to the one just now

Chinese channel.

At this time, ten o'clock had just arrived, and a national leader in a black Chinese tunic suit appeared on the screen. He sat at his desk and said with a solemn expression:

"Hello, fellow citizens in front of televisions and radios! Today I am delivering this speech on behalf of the people of all ethnic groups across the country, on behalf of the government, and on behalf of all mankind.

In the past three months, we have cooperated with governments and scientific research organizations in Europe and North America. Through various means such as radio telescopes, space telescopes, space gravitational wave satellites, space high-definition optical and thermal imaging telescopes, we have confirmed a shocking

News - unknown extraterrestrial civilization is planning to invade us!

They are engaged in some kind of offensive activities on the second moon of Jupiter and the sixth moon of Saturn that we are not fully aware of yet. The current information we have shows that they will invade our country within 10-20 years.

A beautiful blue planet.

Fortunately, we were warned in advance. We discovered the intentions of the extraterrestrial invaders. Through rigorous analysis and calculations, we believe that humans still have enough time to deal with this invasion from extraterrestrial civilizations.

For the continuation of human civilization, for our families not to be destroyed by invaders, and for our descendants to still live on this beautiful planet, we must unite the power of people all over the world to prevent the invasion of extraterrestrial civilizations! Even if that

Our generation and even the next generation will pay the highest price.

In order to deal with the most serious population crisis in human history, we have united most of the countries in the world to establish the Earth Defense Alliance (eda). We must pool the power of the world and use it to respond to this crisis.

No one is a bystander, everyone should work hard and fight for the survival of themselves and their families.

Because only in this way will it be possible to defeat the invaders in the decisive battle in the near future. This will be a war without front or rear. In order to win this battle of survival, hundreds of politicians and military strategists through Eda,

After thorough discussion and demonstration, scientists finally formulated the following pilot plan:

A crisis decree designed to completely halt the global shift to a wartime rationing system in economic markets.

The Spark Decree aimed at mobilizing and training all people to participate in the preparation and combat phases

A recruitment act aimed at efficiently gathering all social professional and technical forces

An expansion bill aimed at increasing the size and combat effectiveness of the standing forces

The above is a strategic plan and the core policy of the entire EDA. Tactically, based on mankind's existing industrial and technological capabilities and reasonable planning for the next ten years, it is proposed:

The "Meteor Project" and "Carmen Project", which aim to enhance space carrying capacity, and the core program "Fuyao Project".

The "Star Port Project" is designed for space orbital defense.

The "Guanghan Palace Project" aimed at establishing lunar space defense.

In order to ensure the implementation of the above plan, I hereby solemnly declare that starting today, human civilization has entered an unprecedented era of crisis. Our lives will undergo earth-shaking changes in preparation for the doomsday battle that will come within twenty years. I will announce below that

Summary of crisis-era legislation that takes effect immediately.

First, the thirty days starting from today will be a transition period, during which the social system will be readjusted. All social production capacity will be concentrated and allocated around the Earth Defense Plan. Economic behavior around the world will be in transition.

During the period, it will be completely stopped and replaced by a rationing system. All industries unrelated to the Earth Defense Plan will be banned.

The work and life of all citizens will be uniformly allocated by the state, and each family will be regularly allocated necessary living supplies. Every citizen has the obligation to respond to the eda recruitment. The recruitment will be arranged as a family unit into appropriate industries as much as possible.

.

Second, all private property will be confirmed and registered by the government during the transition period. It is not necessary for life, or the living materials required for the Earth Defense Plan will be registered and then deployed uniformly. After the crisis is over,

The property owner or heir will be returned or compensated according to the registered situation.

Third, starting from today, the whole world will implement the Unified Law of the Age of Crisis. The law will focus on imposing the most severe sanctions on those who undermine social order in the Age of Crisis, threaten the earth's defense plan, and evade the responsibility of earth's defense.

If an individual or organization dares to stand against the survival of human civilization, he will become the enemy of the whole world. I hope that every citizen will have the courage to shoulder his own responsibilities of the times and historical mission, and not become a stumbling block to the continuation of human civilization.

Fourth, starting from today, controls on the use of radios and light sources exceeding 1,000 watts will be implemented. Without approval, no individual or organization is allowed to communicate by radio or use light sources of 1,000 watts and above. Anyone who violates the regulations will be punished in accordance with the Crisis Act. If anyone attempts to

Establishing contact with extraterrestrial civilization will be punished as quickly and severely as a crime of threatening earth civilization.

Finally, as an ordinary citizen, I want to say that when I got this terrible news, I was just as shocked, scared and angry as you in front of the TV and radio.

This is all human nature. What we are about to experience is a catastrophe and test that has never been experienced in human history. This kind of spiritual shock, physical hard work, and sacrifice at the final decisive moment are things that even the greatest heroes in history have never experienced.

A great mission that I have experienced.

The times have given us this mission, and we must bravely use our shoulders to carry ourselves, our families, and the sky for all mankind. We should believe in the government and the ability of the Earth Defense Alliance to lead us through arduous hardships.

The struggle finally defeats the alien invaders!

Human beings have experienced 3.5 billion years of evolution on earth before they have achieved the current power of survival. In the thousands of years since humans entered the civilized era, we have created brilliant scientific achievements and created splendid civilization wonders. Although there are many challenges on the way forward,

We have also regressed, and we have gone crazy with each other.

But from now on, we must put aside past differences and prejudices, pool the power of the world, and do our best to fight for the right to survive on this blue planet we love!"

The TV screen cut back to the host:

"The leader's speech is over. The following will begin a rolling broadcast of the social structure adjustment details of the transitional period, legal provisions in the crisis era, the recruitment bill and other content related to the Earth's defense plan. Every citizen is asked to read it carefully...

......."

The content on the TV was still playing. Li Linjie, who was sitting on the sofa, shuddered hard and didn't come back to his senses for a while. He just kept trying to take out a cigarette in the cigarette case, but no matter he

No matter how hard his trembling hands tried, he couldn't pull the cigarette out. It took him a while to realize that his pack of cigarettes hadn't been opened yet.

After taking a few puffs of cigarette, he calmed down a little. He still couldn't believe what he saw and heard on TV just now, but it all really happened again.

Li Linjie walked to the balcony, which was not spacious. He held the railing and looked through the gaps between the densely packed buildings in the community. He saw that there were far fewer cars on the road than usual. Occasionally, police cars roared past with their sirens on.

The sound of someone crying could be vaguely heard in a building not far away.

He looked up at the bright sky. The bright sunshine made him unable to lift his head. Such sunshine in early winter would have made people feel very comfortable. However, the sunshine that Li Linjie felt at this moment was like countless needlepoints dropped from the sky.

Feeling generally uncomfortable.
