In the super giant city "Xinhai" in 2077, technology connects everything, but also isolates people's hearts. Lin Zhou, a social worker, is a community technician who is about to be eliminated by AI. In an accident, his AR glasses have a wonderful "malfunction" - he begins to "see" people's emotions. Loneliness is the gray fog, joy is the golden light, and anger is the red thorn.
Is this a gift from God or a curse of data?
From helping lonely elderly neighbors get rid of the troubles of "smart homes" to mediating family conflicts in cyberspace, Lin Zhou uses this unique ability to convey a touch of warmth in the cold steel forest. However, when he was accepted by a mysterious organization called the "Web Weavers", he discovered that beneath the calmness of the city, a huge conspiracy to obliterate all emotions was brewing.
The technology giant "Bliss Technology" is about to launch the "Harmony System", aiming to create a "perfect world" without conflict and sorrow. The price is that everyone will lose the ability to love and hate.
Should we choose comfortable numbness or embrace real and painful emotions?
When the cold torrent of data is about to swallow up the last trace of humanity, Lin Zhou must make a choice and use his tiny power to resonate the hope of the entire city.
