Wang Ye, an ordinary food delivery courier, accidentally finds a set of keys with a little pink teddy bear keychain. From then on, he is drawn into a shocking conspiracy surrounding an experiment in energy conversion. A delivery guy who can fly, an old phone containing fragments of the future: behind these bizarre details that defy common sense are a researcher held captive, an experiment subject out of control, and a mysterious System that calls itself his "son."
Though he seems ordinary, he harbors a secret: he can coexist with the System. When a mild-mannered university lecturer reveals his true identity as an experimenter, and his seemingly fragile ex-girlfriend turns out to be key to the conspiracy, Wang Ye realizes that everyone around him is wearing a mask. The System doesn't grant him superpowers. Instead, it needs him to "raise" it with courage and kindness. He's not the only reborn person, but their aims run counter to one another. Even in the midst of saving the world, he still has to help his neighbor fix a radio and repair a Taoist master's peachwood sword.
From the basement level of Happy Community to the cellar of an abandoned cannery, from "Star," a talking experiment subject, to the mastermind who has lived for a century, Wang Ye presses on with a bronze dagger in hand and a gradually awakening System at his side, stumbling forward through the narrow space between human nature and conspiracy. He slowly comes to understand that true strength is never about destruction, but protection: protecting the glimmers hidden in the folds of everyday life, and the simple longing of ordinary people to "live well."
In this adventure, steeped in both bloodshed and tenderness, there are no absolute heroes or villains, only ordinary people who still choose kindness in desperate circumstances, and Wang Ye, who slowly finds himself while raising a System.
