On the day he was laid off, Chen Mo inherited his uncle's inheritance - a "time bank" hidden deep in the old city.
No money is saved here, only time.
A terminally ill father wants to save five years for his daughter, but the price is that he will die faster.
The woman who wanted to forget her ex wanted to get back her time, but found that her memory had been taken away as "interest".
The rich second generation came to collect his father's inheritance, but the system judged him to be "unqualified" - after ten years of depositing it, it was only worth three years.
The rule is: time can be deposited or withdrawn, but interest is memory. The heir's wishes will be determined by the system. If they match, the value will increase, and if they deviate, the value will decrease.
Chen Mo thought he was just the enforcer of the rules.
Until he turned to the page that was torn out of the ledger - the previous president died of overdraft.
Until he discovered that on the day he was born in 1993, his uncle made a deposit for an "unspecified amount of time" and designated him as the heir.
The system will not display the withdrawal conditions.
Inside the cover of the account book, there is an old photo from 1987. There are three people in the photo: my uncle, an unknown young man, and a woman in a red dress.
There is a line of words written on the back of the photo: The seventh time bank opening commemoration.
Branch No. 7 Opened in 1987 and closed in the same year. As for the reason for closure, there are only two words written in the file: Do not search.
He thought that the inheritance left to him by his uncle was just a bank.
He was wrong.
