About This Novel
Introduction to "One Leaf Knows Autumn": Shao Zhiqiu's sense of touch has been different from ordinary people since he was a child. He was unable to perceive the physical properties of objects. What came from his fingertips was the imprint of time carried on all things - a memory, a ray of emotion, a cause and effect. This ability is a curse, leaving him isolated and helpless among the crowd; it is also a gap through which he can glimpse the truth of the world. When he was forced to use this ability to intervene in the fate of others and the context of time, he found that every move he made affected deeper ethical dilemmas and future variables. At the same time, the Chronological Council, which believes in "the absolute purity of linear time," regards him as a "system virus" that must be eliminated, and is hunted down by the cold and rational executor Situ Jing. During his escape and exploration, Shao Zhiqiu gradually understood his mission: not to dominate or repair time, but to become a "translator" and "mediator" of the time context of all things. In the end, facing the Council's ultimate plan to annihilate the uncertainty of life with absolute order, he must make a choice: let the world return to dead perfection, or embrace the chaotic and real infinite possibilities that include pain and ecstasy? Touching this moment is reading eternity.
