In 2045, "memory weaving" technology became popular all over the world. People can pay to modify painful memories, beautify the mundane past, and even share "customized" memory fragments with others. Neurologist Lin Shen was once the core developer of this technology, but because he insisted on the bottom line of "memory is human nature", he resolutely resigned and opened a private clinic to treat victims of "weaving memories".
One rainy night, former colleague Chen Mo suddenly broke into the clinic, leaving behind an encrypted hard drive and the words "memory is contaminated", and then disappeared without a trace. The hard drive contains the "truth that cannot be erased", and the key to unlock it is closely linked to the memory of Lin Shen's wife Su Qing's "accidental" car accident.
As anonymous threats follow, Lin Shen is forced to be involved in a pursuit that spans memory and reality. He teamed up with the mysterious hacker girl Aya to go deep into the shady world of the technology giant "Genesis" and gradually uncovered CEO Zhang Cheng's crazy plan - to use the "Echo" project to build a global collective memory bank and use AI to control the consciousness of all mankind.
When memories can be edited at will, the boundary between truth and falsehood disappears. Lin Shen not only has to crack the secret of the hard drive, but also fight against the enemies who try to tamper with his consciousness. Amidst the layers of lies and deadly traps, Lin Shen must retrieve his true memory and protect the last line of defense of human consciousness. This is the ultimate battle about technological ethics, human struggle and the redemption of love, and the final truth may be more cruel than the tampered memory.
