Some truths are contaminated when seen.
Some knowledge is a crime if it is known.
Chen Mo, an ordinary convenience store clerk, met an "unrememberable customer" one strange early morning. A small ticket with self-tampering text dragged him into the back of the world - where reality is full of loopholes and common sense is distorted and mutated, collectively called "artifacts."
What maintains the stability of the appearance is the mysterious and cold "Cognitive Security Bureau" and its supreme "Cognitive Security Regulations". The first iron rule is: knowledge is pollution.
Facing the fate of being "cognitively cleansed" (erasing his memory and even his personality), Chen Mo was forced to sign a contract and became a cog in the system: an investigator who made a living fighting pollution at the expense of his own pollution.
But he soon discovered that the regulations may not protect human beings, but a huge lie. The "inhibitors" he took, the "memories" he erased, and the "artifacts" he traced all seemed to point to a buried source of terror - it was not far away, but around everyone, breathing in the mezzanine of every wall.
When complying with regulations means aiding the tyrants, and pursuing the truth will lead to self-destruction, Chen Mo must make a choice: become the cornerstone of the system's silence, or ignite the dangerous cognitive fire that burns through lies?
——Please be sure to comply with cognitive safety regulations. If you feel the walls are watching you, take the Blue Inhibitor immediately and forget this tip.
