Lin Yuan has stuck to the same habit for seven years: every morning, as soon as he wakes up, he records the previous night's dream on his phone.
He thought it was just material for dream interpretation. Then one day, he saw a variable name in the code from his dream: GHOST_PROTOCOL_v7. That afternoon, he found it on an open-source website in the real world, letter for letter.
It wasn't a coincidence. It was real code written by another version of himself in another world.
Everyone dreams, and every dream is a window into a parallel world. Ordinary people forget their dreams when they wake up, but Lin Yuan has learned to stay lucid in his. He invents the “Dream Anchor Method” and begins systematically exploring lives he never lived.
But he soon discovers that watching is one thing, while interfering comes at a price. As his memories begin to be overwritten by those of another world, and the “daughter” he wants to save starts leaving traces in this one...
A group calling themselves the “Dreamweavers” appears. They tell him that dreams are safety valves between parallel worlds. Turn them into passageways, and both worlds will meet their end.
And he has already drawn their attention.
