"Hey, did you hear that? Someone took up a reserved parking space!"

"Yeah! Really? This is really shameless."

The protagonist A is an ordinary driver.

One day, he parked his car in an underground garage. The city stipulates that reserved parking spaces are not allowed to park outside vehicles, otherwise the owner will be punished, and the specific measure is to deduct points in the "public moral evaluation system".

In this society, occupying reserved parking spaces is an extremely shameful violation, and we will call this kind of regulation morality. And once a person has been deducted points, the whole society will despise this person for having made such a shameful mistake.

"A parking space is reserved. It's for the important person." People keep repeating this phrase. However, the reserved parking space is always free, and no one has ever seen the important person.

A has been a good citizen until yesterday, but when he was parking today, an idea suddenly occupied his mind: people only live once in this world, why should they act according to the will of others and live according to the rules of others ? I want to live my life on my own terms.

So at this moment, A chooses to park the car in the reserved parking space that is always free.

At the moment when A stopped, the city's media reported the disdainful news. A group of onlookers flocked, and the exit of the parking lot was instantly full. Everyone wanted to see the true face of A.

"It's just a choice, there's no right or wrong." A stated to people over and over again. "People should not be troubled by external things, but be loyal to their own hearts."

"You can't park in reserved parking spaces. So you are wrong." The crowd said, "And those who make mistakes should be criticized by the whole society. That's how morality is stipulated."

A was stuck in the parking lot because of that, people say, because he didn't want to admit he made a mistake.

"People have the right to choose their own way of life." A reiterated his point of view.

"That's right, but you shouldn't park your car in the reserved parking space because of this." The crowd laughed.

"What you are facing is the conflict between inner freedom and the constraints of reality. We need to get rid of the constraints of the heart, be true to ourselves, and find a meaning in this life as a human being. Let yourself have the courage and confidence to say to anyone from the bottom of your heart. NO." A said with certainty.

A's wife also persuaded A, but A did not accept his wife's opinion. A tells his wife that he wants her to find the manager of the parking lot on behalf of A, so that he can open the exit and let A drive the car out.

A's wife went, but was told that the administrator was busy, and the assistant who guided the parking also persuaded her that A should admit her mistake. "The only way is the most appropriate solution. After all, everyone is very busy. Who has the time to deal with such a thing that is wrong in itself?"

A final outcome? Some say that A is still stuck in the parking lot. Some people say that A was charged with crimes against social morality and executed. Others say that the important person forgives A's fault. There are different opinions, but most people think that A is dead, and those who do make mistakes should be punished.
