A bizarre in-game suicide incident implicated a real-life brain death tragedy. Shen Yi, a prodigy from the criminal investigation team, acquired the cursed ability to hear other people's "voices" due to an accident. In order to track down clues, he was forced to sneak into the world-popular VR game "Fantasy Link". In this virtual world where consciousness is connected, his mind-reading skills have undergone strange mutations. He can eavesdrop on the whispers of fear flowing from NPC data, and can also capture the greed and trembling of the real souls behind the player characters. In the game copy broadcast live on the entire network, he is the silent lone ranger "Night Crow", hunting a conscious criminal organization using "Eternal Paradise" as bait under the gorgeous light and shadow. When virtual killings begin to reflect reality, Shen Yi must distinguish truth from lies in the abyss of data, save the next target, and face the cruel truth behind his abilities that has been covered up.
