Six players, a game you can't quit, seven puzzles that point to the truth.
Former detective Mo Shen received a mysterious invitation to enter the game "Mirror World" known as "fully immersive VR". The moment you log in, the system announces: You cannot log out. Death in the game means brain death in real life.
Trapped with him are game development programmers, flamboyant game anchors, silent retired workers, gentle medical graduate students, and talented e-sports teenagers. Six people, six times in the past, were gathered here by a mysterious man codenamed "X".
When the first body appeared, Shen Shen discovered that the wound of the deceased was carved with a familiar symbol - the symbol of the "Collector" who committed the serial murder case three years ago. That case claimed the life of his partner, and the murderer is still at large.
Each of the seven puzzles tortures human nature: Do you see the world, or yourself?
As the puzzles are uncovered layer by layer, the consciousness of a boy imprisoned in the depths of AI gradually emerges. His father is the real murderer of serial murders, and his existence itself is a technical and ethical nightmare.
A deeper fear spreads: among the six people, one person is "different." Is the murderer infiltrating the team, or is one of them hiding a dual personality?
When the last mirror shattered, they discovered that the real puzzle was not how to escape, but who deserved to be saved.
"The Seventh Mirror" is a novel that deeply integrates criminal investigation reasoning and science fiction suspense. A tribute to everyone who searches for the truth in the dark.
The truth is not in the mirror, but in the eyes that stare into it.
