Chapter 4

People also noticed that Jiang Ye seemed to have discovered the signs of humanity's sudden disappearance that the production team had staged.

They saw Jiang Ye first wander over to the cars for a look, then knock a few times at a house.

When no one answered, they saw Jiang Ye try the door. It was unlocked, so he went inside.

Overseas viewer: "Look, no one answered, so he tried to break in. This international student from an Eastern nation really has disappointing character. I won't have anything to do with yellow-skinned people again."

Domestic viewer who had climbed over the firewall: "Holy fucking shit, they'll even trash him for that!? Fuck off."

Someone posted the comments from the international livestream on Weibo.

"Brothers, the international livestream needs backup. Anyone who's quick with words and fast at typing, hurry over and take them on."

"Tell me how to climb over the firewall. I'll go right now!"

"Oh, come on. For foreigners who really can't stand us, Jiang Ye could probably fart and they'd still find something to criticize."

When Jiang Ye came out of the house, his expression was grave.

Inside, he had seen a half-eaten breakfast, a carton of milk lying on the floor, a faucet left running...

All the signs suggested that the people had suddenly left.

But what had made the family leave so suddenly?

Jiang Ye couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.

He would help them call the police!

He more or less knew the people who lived there. Whenever he passed by and saw the white woman, she would smile and say hello.

But he called for a long time, and no one ever picked up.

As he called, Jiang Ye walked along the street.

Gradually, he lowered his phone.

Something seemed increasingly wrong.

No one!

Not a single person.

They were all gone!

He walked out of the street.

On the main road, he saw cars scattered haphazardly all over the street. Some had even crashed into roadside shops.

That wasn't the point.

The point was, there was still no one around!

After looking around,

Jiang Ye took out his phone and filmed a short video, intending to post it on Twitter and YouTube to ask what was going on.

"Can we see Jiang Ye's Twitter?" someone asked in the livestream.

Chen Danni explained at just the right moment, "His phone has internet access, but all the apps on it were custom-made. Twitter is fake too, so even if he posts on Twitter, no one will respond to him."

"And hackers are also monitoring it in real time to prevent anything unexpected from happening."

"Everything was arranged around the premise that all the humans in the world had suddenly disappeared."

After posting on Twitter, Jiang Ye called a few classmates, but no one answered.

What on earth had happened?

Jiang Ye continued walking.

Cars were parked all over the street, and almost every one of them had been in an accident. They had either rear-ended another car or crashed into a nearby shop or home.

It was as if the drivers had suddenly disappeared, causing the cars to crash out of control.

The shops were the same, completely empty. Some signs inside likewise suggested that people had suddenly disappeared.

An hour later.

Jiang Ye had walked through the streets nearby.

He couldn't help arriving at a bold conclusion: could all the humans in the world have suddenly disappeared at the same time?

So I was the one who got left out?

I'm the only one left!?

Jiang Ye took out his phone and checked the video he had posted on Twitter and YouTube an hour ago.

As expected, it had sunk like a stone into the sea without attracting any attention.

Then he checked the domestic internet.

Whether on Weibo or Certain Hu, he noticed that all posts stopped at yesterday.

After looking a little longer, Jiang Ye put down his phone and frowned at his surroundings.

For a moment, he felt something was wrong in a way he couldn't quite put into words.

Just then, an electronically synthesized voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Ye's mind. "Survival Assistance System activated!"

"The show has begun. Jiang Ye himself should have discovered and confirmed the premise that all of humanity has suddenly disappeared. Let's wait and see what happens next."

Chen Danni's words were the icing on the cake, though she didn't really need to say them. Everyone was already eager to see what Jiang Ye would do next.

Comments in the domestic livestream:

"Brother Jiang, don't do anything weird. This is being livestreamed in front of all humanity. If you do something like in the movies and dress up as a woman or something, then..."

"Dressing up as a woman would be fine. If he took off all his clothes and then... I think that would be the most embarrassing thing."

"Whatever Jiang Ye does, I'll understand. If it were me, I'd definitely do something even more outrageous."

"Like what?"

"Like finding a gun, then rat-tat-tat-tat!"
