On Hal Star, where people believe that “unity is strength, and sacrifice is glory,”? Gu Guangjie is a dangerous outlier in the collective.
A student at the Third Military Academy, he perfectly plays the part of an unassuming, aloof ordinary student, all to conceal a past the world would never accept. He thought he could quietly disappear into this civilian academy until graduation.
That is, until Hondou Yuzhen, a noble young lady whose smile is as innocent and radiant as a rose, transferred to the academy without warning and strode straight into his life. Every “chance” encounter with her precisely threatens the disguise he has worked so hard to maintain.
Why has she come? Is she after the secret he has buried, or trying to uncover the truth that could shake the nation to its foundations, hidden beneath this planet’s grand narrative of the “democratic iron fist”?
When one man’s hidden past collides head-on with the fate of seven hundred million Hal Star inhabitants on their “fearless expedition,” a quiet investigation that began on campus will ultimately ignite a storm sweeping across the stars.
