In a modern city where data illumination is pervasive, network security expert Jiang Lin was involved in a death threat planned by the mysterious hacker organization "Ghost" because he exposed the shady stories of powerful people. At the same time, Xie Wei, a negotiator from the Public Security Bureau, was keenly aware of the sophisticated chain of psychological control behind the kidnapping case. The two were forced to cooperate due to the case, but when they followed the clues, they discovered that all the bizarre crimes pointed to the founder of the "Intelligent Future" Foundation - this seemingly gentle and gentle godfather of technology was using the "Social Emotion Map" and the "Hive" algorithm to weave an invisible giant web that controls the consciousness of millions of people.
Jiang Lin's hacking skills and Xie Wei's micro-expression mind-reading skills form a fatal complement, but they fall into an abyss of trust during the cooperation: Xie Wei's concealed past actually shares the scars transformed by experiments with the "ghost" leader; behind Jiang Lin's persistent justice lies the blood and tears of his relatives who died due to cyber violence. When AI algorithms begin to screen out "unqualified" humans, and when smart communities become accomplices in perfect crimes, the two must hold on to the glimmer of humanity in the flood of data, and use their broken selves to spell out a solution.
The ultimate game about technological ethics and free will begins, and the hands they hold together are not only a weapon against darkness, but also the only warm coordinate of salvation. Are you ready to see the light outside the data prison?
