A series of bizarre disappearances in the city led to five interrelated but separate storylines. Cases of headless corpses, mental experiments, false memory implants, dark web live broadcasts, and out-of-control artificial intelligence have emerged one after another. From the detection of a superficial crime to the dissection of the deep boundary between human nature and reality, the main plot unfolds when screenwriter Zhang Wenshan is accidentally involved in a real-life murder case that is the source of inspiration. Through the investigation of criminal policeman Li Muqing, the psychological analysis of psychiatrist Ai Ze, the secret assistance of genius hacker Gu Yunling, and the collection of clues by reporter Song Rongrong through truth and falsehood, the ultimate secret of the conspiracy of power and technology and the manipulation of memory is revealed. Each volume is its own mystery, and together they weave a huge web of mystery. The story finally reaches its climax in the tenth volume, where all the main lines converge, the truth is revealed, and the confrontation, manipulation, and resistance between man and himself reach the extreme.
