Why does my Macbook pro suddenly want lock screen password even when I didn't set any password?

How to open or reset password lock in Macbook pro? I can't get pass the lock screen password that my Macbook pro is wanting. I never saved any lock screen password. Then why is it suddenly asking for it? There's no "forget password" or "reset password" or "log in to apple id". How can I solve it? I can't use my Macbook pro now because of the sudden "password" demand. Help me Apple....

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

I would suggest you use your admin/user password...?
