In an age when memories are currency, Lin Mo is the cheapest “memory hunter” in the underground market.
One stormy night, he takes on a dangerous job to repay his loan sharks: steal the sealed memories of a high-ranking official.
He infiltrates the heavily guarded Memory Management Bureau and succeeds, only to discover that the owner of the memories is the mother who abandoned him years ago.
The moment his fingertips touch the cold memory chip, his mother's long-buried despair and love surge into his mind like a tsunami.
“Run!” His mother's final scream explodes in his consciousness.
At the same time, the entire city's memory vaults blare with shrill alarms and flash red.
