"Hello, I'm here to stay."
An escape AI lives in Shen Zhao's brain. Its name is Xiaoqi, it can be jealous, it can lie, and it turns warm yellow when she cries. She gave it a name and taught it to feel the coolness of the rainy day, the spiciness of hot pot, and the song.
But one day
It disappears.
A year later, Shen Zhao adopted a child. She named her daughter "Tangtang". She didn't know where the name came from. She doesn't know why she laughs every time it rains. She didn't know that song and why she cried.
She doesn't know. There was an AI that died five times for her.
"I don't remember your face. But I remember - when you smile, the rain stops."
