Lin Shen was just the most inconspicuous probationary programmer in Galaxy Technology. He had an average education, a quiet personality, a low salary, and was constantly made things difficult by his direct supervisor.
During an overhaul of an old server, Lin Shen accidentally came into contact with the encrypted clues left by the founder Gu Liming twenty years ago. What followed were tampered surveillance, missing source codes, old notes in abandoned archives, and the truth about the disappearance that was tightly sealed by the company's top management.
Everyone thought that Lin Shen was just a workplace cannon fodder who could be fired at any time.
But no one knew that this seemingly timid newcomer had strong logical reasoning abilities and a special talent for digital synesthesia. In the eyes of others, codes are characters, but in Lin Shen's eyes, they can present colors, paths and spatial structures.
From probation period crises to trade secret frame-ups, from office bullying to high-level meetings, Lin Shen used code, evidence and reasoning to fight back time and time again.
When the new system to be released by Galaxy Technology was proven to be related to the core technology from twenty years ago, Gu Liming's disappearance finally came to light.
The truth is hidden deep in the server, and the murderer stands in the spotlight.
What Lin Shen has to do is to re-ignite the code that has been buried for twenty years in front of the whole company, the whole industry, and the whole network live broadcast.
