When history becomes a file to be reviewed, the first person to discover a clerical error must learn to flee in silence.
In the nest city of 2123, the world was exquisite and silent. Xiaochen, an ordinary archives administrator, sifts through the fragments of civilization before the "Great Subsidence" day after day, erasing all inappropriate "errors".
Until his respected mentor Li Chongshan died "naturally" and the relics were quickly destroyed. Until a "time capsule" that was supposed to be shattered issued a tearful warning in his ear: "'Anchor' is not protection, it is a mark."
He was forced to break into the deepest shadow of the hive city and met researcher Xiyue who also carried a secret. They discovered that they were just the "carrier" of number management, and that the entire civilization was a "sample" waiting to be harvested.
The countdown was already bouncing in the walls. The "Silent Ones" who guard the secrets are everywhere. The only vitality is hidden in a torn "Unfinished Poetry" that spans two civilizational eras.
This is a war about forgetting and remembering. And the first shot was fired by a little man who decided not to be silent anymore.
