In Xinjing City in 2077, memories can be extracted, traded and erased. The giant enterprise "Yongzhi Technology" used this to build a glamorous "Sky City", leaving the rest of the people in the dark "Under City".
Lin Xun, a "memory scavenger" in Dicheng, makes a living by processing discarded memories. His work is forgetfulness, his life is numbness. Until one day, he salvaged a bloody memory from the data ruins that should not exist - a murder case pointing to the core of Yongzhi Technology.
This memory is like a tarsal maggot that cannot be deleted, and it has also attracted a ruthless pursuit from Sky City. Overnight, he went from an unnoticed scavenger to the prey of the city's most technologically advanced power.
Forced to join forces with Ye Tong, a member of the mysterious resistance organization, Lin Xun embarks on a desperate road to decode memories and pursue the truth. He discovered that the deceased in his memory was actually his sister who had been missing for many years, and the clues she left pointed to a horrific conspiracy that could subvert the entire world order.
When memories can be tampered with, how do you prove your existence? When the price of the truth is sacrificing your entire past, do you still have the courage to make a choice?
This is a story about searching. In the cyber city where neon lights and acid rain intersect, a man will use all his memories to fight against the Eye of Eternal Day that stares at everyone.
