Investigative reporter Chen Mo was assassinated on a rainy night, only to wake up in the morgue seven hours later. A cold metal collar was locked around his neck, showing a 24-hour countdown to death. He was forced to join the Dying Project and must find the real culprit who killed him within the time limit.
The clues pointed to the food company he reported three years ago, but as the investigation deepened, Chen Mo discovered that this was not just revenge. While the collar is guiding him, it is also collecting all his data. The unexpected appearance of his ex-girlfriend and the mysterious involvement of technology companies make the truth even more confusing.
When the countdown entered its final moments, Chen Mo finally discovered that the real purpose of the dying plan was to test an algorithm that can evaluate the value of life. And he is both an experiment and a key witness in this conspiracy. On the edge of life and death, he must uncover the truth and prove that the value of humanity can never be defined by algorithms.
