When filial piety becomes a set of rules that must be followed, and love and companionship become cold terms, are we supporting our parents, or is it a program called "family affection"?
In the near future, in the face of the unsolvable aging of society, the "filial piety simulation" system came into being. Children only need to pay a fee to send their parents into a perfect old age structured by rules. This place is quaint and caring, and there is only a "Code of Happiness" that must be strictly followed - the length of smiling, the frequency of calls, and even the content of thoughts have all become strict rules.
Retired professor Chen Wangyuan voluntarily stepped into this tender hell in order to investigate the mysterious death of his best friend Li Zhenguo in the system. He soon discovered that behind the rules were strange mythical entities and deadly logical traps. If you violate the rules, you will die; if you follow them perfectly, your memory and personality will be wiped out in the lie of "human complementation", and you will be reduced to a "standard product" that will no longer cause trouble.
After forming an alliance with a group of old people who still had a clear will, Chen Wangyuan realized that they were not fighting simple ghosts, but a whole cruel system that alienated family ties. Invading the core of the system "Wangxiangtai" requires not force, but all the forgotten, warm, true memories belonging to "people".
This is a war that pits remaining humanity against cold rules. They want to use their last lives to sound a wake-up call about love and responsibility for all their fallen children.
