In a human nature experiment called "Origin Tracing", a blank consciousness body code-named K was thrown into society. He is set up as a pure observer, and his mission is to verify the cold theory that "the essence of human nature is the survival algorithm." However, when he defied logic to save a bullied teenager on a rainy night, the preset program went awry for the first time.
On the way to escape, K met poor students struggling to survive, a wise retired mechanic and a tough self-taught girl on the edge of the city. The mutual help, sacrifice and warmth they showed constantly impacted K's cognitive model of human nature. At the same time, the "Prometheus" plan of the "Origin Research Institute" gradually emerged - by controlling the frequency of emotional waves, human beings will be transformed into "harmonious" individuals who have lost themselves.
When K discovers that he is not only an experimental sample, but also the key "key" to stopping this spiritual plague, he faces the ultimate choice: return to a safe observer identity, or use his own existence as a bet to protect the light of emotions that cannot be quantified by algorithms?
From a blank mirror to an awakened person holding a lamp, K's journey is not only a revolution in self-awareness, but also a beacon that illuminates the essence of human nature. Within the framework of science fiction suspense, this work completes the most touching inquiry into free will and the dignity of life.
