Day 1 (2) The last person in the universe
The old cat observed it all night and finally came to a very cautious conclusion.
The earth is gone.
Not only is the earth gone, but so is the moon.
The terrestrial planet located in the third orbit of the solar system, with a revolution speed of 29.8 kilometers per second, a radius of 6378.137 kilometers, and a circumference of 40075.7 kilometers, evaporated overnight, leaving not a single hair left.
That's why they couldn't be contacted no matter how hard they tried.
Although he doesn't know what happened, Tang Yue escaped death on Mars and was honored to become the last human being in the world.
.
.
.
Tang Yue sat on the box, staring blankly at the floor under his feet, his mind going blank.
He has been sitting like this for a long time.
Let the old cat writhe around obscenely in front of him.
In the past few decades, all astronauts in human history were just wanderers away from home. No matter how far they traveled, they would eventually go home one day.
But Tang Yue is no longer a wanderer.
He is a homeless man with a broken family.
He was only twenty-six years old this year, and his family was ruined.
According to the original plan, Tang Yue will complete the scientific expedition work in the next two days, then return to the Mars Joint Space Station and take the last Orion spacecraft back to Earth.
This is the plan made by Jiuquan Center for him. Behind this plan, there are hundreds of people watching every step of Tang Yue's actions, and thousands of people working to ensure his safety, burning every minute.
It was all a lot of dollars, just to successfully bring his 130 kilograms of meat back from a strange planet 55 million kilometers away. Even a kilogram missing would be considered a failure.
When Tang Yue was on Mars, his value was more expensive than the same volume of gold, and he was truly worth hundreds of millions.
Now those people have disappeared.
Tang Yue is homeless.
"Is the earth really gone?"
"It's really gone." The old cat replied, "Although I don't know what happened, I used all the observation tools available on the space station. From all angles, the earth has disappeared, and there is no residue left.
Come down."
Tang Yue was silent for a long time and stopped talking.
The old cat continued to twist obscenely in front of him.
If Tang Yue is a kite floating fifty million kilometers away, then the moment he learned that the earth had disappeared, the kite string connecting Tang Yue and the earth was broken, and he was carried away by the raging solar storm.
Trapped in an unpredictable fate.
At that moment, he felt as if he had lost all his quality, and the breeze and morning light directly penetrated his body and soul.
"The earth is really gone?" Tang Yue murmured.
"It's really gone." The old cat continued to answer, "Although I don't know what happened, I used all the observation tools available on the space station. From all angles, the earth has disappeared, and there is no scum at all.
The rest.”
Tang Yue raised his head, glanced at it, and asked in a low voice: "Why do you repeat this answer?"
The old cat asked back: "Then why do you repeat this question?"
Tang Yue held his head with both hands, his fingers deeply inserted into the roots of his hair, his eyes were dull:
Yeah, why do I have to ask the same question over and over again?
The old cat stopped twisting, sighed, raised his paws and put them on Tang Yue's shoulders.
Because our essence is the same.
Tang Yue raised his head, his eyes blank:
Our essence? What is our essence?
The old cat spoke with sincerity:
Of course it's a repeater.
Tang Yue didn't know where he would eventually go. In this universe with a diameter of 93 billion light-years, a Milky Way with a diameter of 120,000 light-years, a solar system with a diameter of 82 astronomical units, and a world with a diameter of 6794
On a planet that is 1.75 kilometers away, a man with a body length of 1.75 meters is too small. Some kind of irresistible force pushes him to a completely unfamiliar distance.
"I know you are sad." The old cat squeaked over and comforted Tang Yue, "The earth has disappeared. You are the last human being and I am the last robot. If you have anything to say, you can tell me. Although the earth
No more, but I’m still here.”
The old cat hugged Tang Yue and patted his back gently with its paws.
"Don't hold anything in your heart, it will make you feel better if you say it."
A long time later, Tang Yue recalled that moment over and over again.
As the last earthling in the world, what was the first thought that popped into his mind after learning that the earth had disappeared?
Tang Yue originally thought it would be a desperate exclamation.
“Holy shit, I’m screwed.”, “Holy shit, how is this possible?” or “I’m homeless!”
Either a calm scientific person:
"This is unscientific, the earth cannot disappear.", "The observation results are wrong, the earth cannot disappear." and "My eyeballs are wrong, the earth cannot disappear."
Or the self-comfort school:
"I must be dreaming.", "The old cat must be dreaming." and "The telescope must be dreaming."
But it turns out that Tang Yue underestimated himself.
Tang Yue was surprisingly calm, abnormally calm. A terrible thought slowly crawled up from under his feet, gradually expanded, and finally occupied his entire brain, driving away all the sadness, fear, and surprise.
The only thought in his mind at the time was:
Oh shit.
I'm still a virgin.
.
.
.
"Tang Yue? Mr. Tang Yue, can you receive it?"
A clear voice suddenly broke the silence.
Tang Yue was already autistic. He would continue to be autistic like this. Suddenly he was awakened by the sound. Tang Yue was stunned for a second. Hasn't the earth exploded? How could anyone call him?
?
He rolled over and got up and found someone talking on the video call channel.
Tang Yue was overjoyed.
A young girl appeared on the computer screen, slender and petite, wearing blue overalls, with a fair neck exposed by the collar, and short black ear-length hair floating in the microgravity environment. Looking at the background of the video, the white behind the girl
The flags of China, the United States and the European Union are posted on the bulkhead, which is obviously on the Mars Joint Space Station.
"Ophiopogon japonicus?" Tang Yue was surprised.
The girl saw Tang Yue's face and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Tang Yue is in serious trouble. I have lost contact with the ground, and the captain and the others can't be contacted either! All contact has been interrupted! Finally, I tried to track the captain's Orion spacecraft, but found... found..."
"The earth is gone, isn't it?" Tang Yue said.
The girl nodded, her eyes widened, full of fear and surprise, her long eyelashes trembling, stained with tiny tears, it was obvious that she had cried violently just now.
"Calm down, calm down, Miss Maidong, calm down first."
Tang Yue tried to comfort the girl. He had just come out of autism and could not watch the second person become autistic.
What's more, this is the only second human being left in the universe.
"Don't panic, let's analyze the current situation slowly. Do you understand what I mean?" Tang Yue was persuasive, "Nod if you understand."
The girl was confused and could only nod obediently.
