Around 0:17 a. M., The Lanjiang City Emergency Center was flooded with 137 calls for help.
All calls come from Building 17 of Anning Community.
But maps, real estate files and fire protection drawings all prove that this community has always had only sixteen buildings.
Trainee dispatcher Lin Du followed the rescue team into the non-existent building.
From the moment he picks up the first call, a green route will appear in front of his eyes. The route can extend for up to ninety seconds, and will be cut off on the spot once the person changes their choice.
Names in the building are fading, loved ones will be forgotten, and living people will be deleted one by one from files, photos and memories by the city. In order to save their family, some people write their names into the mutual recognition list, but the whole class of people collectively remember a person who never existed; some people are disappearing from all records and still refuse to let their children recognize them.
Every time a way out is found, the team loses something.
Until Lin Du received a phone call from twelve years ago in the building.
On the other end of the phone was a girl that the whole world had forgotten but only he still remembered.
"Brother, don't hang up."
"I'm still in Building 17."
