[Future Sci-Fi] [Secret Agent Investigation] [No Easy Power-Fantasy Tropes, Everyone Is Smart] [Espionage]

In 2245, fifty years after the Third World War, a flight from Tokyo to Hualing is hit by a terrorist bomb attack on an otherwise ordinary day. Chen Gong, an intelligence operative on the front lines, is recalled to investigate the case. More bomb attacks follow, and the perpetrator, calling himself "Michael," claims responsibility. Beneath the surface, the Kondo Trading Company, the Tokyo Ring, and other factions begin to stir, seeking to seize the implant known as Number 11, which can attack the world's firewall and change the balance of power. Can Chen Gong find a way to survive among these competing forces and locate the eleventh implant? And what fate awaits him?
