shut down after sudden loud fan sound

My MacBook shuts down after 1-2 seconds of loud fan sound. Such a problem occurred three times within 6 hours. I am so confused. Anyone know what this keeps happening and how can I solve it?

thanks

(My mac was not hot and I only opened 1-3 tabs in chrome, so definitely not over-working my mac.)

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262



Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.

Login and test. Reboot as normal. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
