Behind the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, Li Ming, an ordinary programmer, is stuck in the quagmire of life. Every day, he is overwhelmed by the ocean of code and data, and his nine-to-six life is mechanical and boring. In the early morning, he was pushed by the crowd in the crowded subway, feeling the cold pulse of the city; at night, when he returned to the small and dark rental house, exhaustion swallowed him up like a tide. The triviality and pressure of life gradually dimmed his expectations for the future, and his days became a repetition without any ripples.
It was an ordinary evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the streets warm orange. Li Ming walked home with heavy steps, filled with longing for a hot meal and a moment of peace. Suddenly, a mysterious woman wearing a black windbreaker and sunglasses—Long Yin—appeared in front of him without warning. She moved quickly, thrust an envelope into Li Ming's hand, and disappeared into the bustling crowd before he could react. Li Ming stood there blankly, looking at the direction she left, full of doubts in his heart.
When he got home, Li Ming opened the envelope with trembling hands. Inside was a note and a USB flash drive. The note said: "This is what you have been looking for, don't tell anyone." With strong curiosity, he inserted the USB flash drive into the computer. A scene from a mysterious laboratory appeared on the screen. A scientist was conducting a shocking experiment. He put a person into a huge machine. After pressing a button, the person instantly disappeared and reappeared in a completely different place. Li Ming's eyes widened in shock, and he realized that his peaceful life was about to be completely broken.
