Lu Chen, a social programmer who worked overtime until three in the morning, suddenly could see everyone's emotional colors.
Anxiety is light yellow, stress is gray-blue, and despair is gray-black. For those who are about to be unable to hold on any longer, tiny fragments of emotions will surge out of their heads - reflecting their deepest fears, most painful memories, and grievances they least dare to express.
He thought he was crazy until he met Su Wanqing. A woman whose head is always "empty" can hide all her emotions. Her true identity is a criminal psychology consultant and a member of the top virtual idol "Hoshino Yume".
Two people who hide themselves meet in the middle of the night in the city.
They were involved in an organization called the "Night Watch" and discovered that the emotional crystals that overflowed when they were on the verge of collapse were being secretly collected by Tianmu Technology - used to create awakened people, used for human experiments, and used to turn emotions into weapons.
And Chen Lu's ability is not just "seeing".
He can use his own emotions to counteract the despair of others. The price is that every time you save someone, you have to endure the backlash of those emotions.
At three o'clock in the morning in the city, some people are overwhelmed by emotions, and some are waiting to be seen.
Lu Chen was the only one who could see it.
"Seeing emotions is to understand. Having power is to protect."
——He is a grayscale observer.
