In the neon city "New Victoria" in 2099, technology defines everything, and private detective Lin Yao is the most loyal believer in technology. He relies on his cutting-edge prosthetic eyes and impeccable logic to solve crimes one after another in the steel jungle. However, a bizarre murder that occurred in a fully enclosed safe house dragged him into a logical dead end. All electronic evidence points to nothingness, as if the murderer is a ghost from another dimension.
Under duress, Lin Yao's worldview began to collapse. He discovers a clue that is incompatible with this digital age - an ancient ebony charm, and thus comes into contact with a mysterious community that rejects technology and believes in spiritual power. There, he heard a word that could subvert the entire technological civilization: "data ghost".
When invisible ghosts begin to erode his prosthetic body and distort his perception, and when the overwhelming giant company sends ruthless killers to try to cover up the truth, Lin Yao must make a choice: continue to stick to his crumbling logic barriers, or embrace the supernatural world that he has always denied, hidden under the code and electricity?
This is a modern exorcism set in the heart of a cyberpunk city. A detective's investigative journey eventually turns into a profound interrogation of self, soul, and the future of mankind and technology. When the shell of the machine is knocked open, is it the scream of the program or the whisper of the soul that you hear?
