You could say..
"Nothing?"
"No reaction?"
"Did you see/hear/feel that?"
"Are you paying attention?"
"Was I the only one who saw/heard/felt that?"

@lilbaozi That sentence doesn't really seem right.
"Suddenly, a thief takes her phone and runs away, and she didn't react"
Is that more what you mean? There's not a direct word for the lack of a reaction, you could say "indifferent"

I think you could use she froze "suddenly, a thief took/takes her phone and run away and she froze, without any thought crossing her mind"
