Lin Wu is a quality inspector in the real-world virtual project department, and his job is to find bugs in the abandoned version of the world "Jin Dynasty". When she signed the contract, she didn't expect the system to crash, nor that she would be trapped in the code forever.
This world has imperial city walls and people who can breathe, bleed, and beg for mercy. But it's collapsing. White nothingness spreads from the edge to the center, the city disappears, and the people die, but no one notices. Only Lin Wu could see the cracks and hear the sound of the world breaking, like fingernails scraping the back of glass.
The system gave her an incomplete task: to find two "abnormal bodies". One will destroy everything, and the other will open the exit. But they look like humans, speak human words, and show kindness to others.
She could only get closer.
Qindu, the regent of Jin Dynasty and the head of the boundary survey department. He didn't trust anyone, but he gave her a codename - "Key" in the secret file.
Shen Wusheng is a luthier despised by the whole city. Wherever he went, the collapse followed him, but he was never swallowed up. The way he looked at her was like looking at someone who had been waiting for a long time.
Every time he used the system, Lin Wu's memory became less and less. Her past is used as fuel to burn the truth about the world.
She can no longer distinguish between exit and destruction, love and murderous intent.
