Insurance claims investigator Shen Zhiheng suddenly gained the ability to see the "roles" above everyone's heads.
[The Overworked] [Cause of the Accident] [The Mother Who Died for Her Child]...
On the last subway train, the girl Xu Zhi sitting across from him had four words above her head:
[The Only Survivor]
Shen Zhiheng counted forty-eight people in the carriage.
If she was the only survivor, what would happen to the other forty-seven?
To stay alive, Shen Zhiheng put on a staff member's reflective vest and began keeping order, counting passengers, and organizing an evacuation.
As everyone gradually came to believe he was who he claimed to be, words appeared over his head for the first time:
[Temporary Staff?]
From that day on, Shen Zhiheng saw more roles that shouldn't exist.
[Wife-Killer], despite having no wife.
[Hero], with disasters constantly happening around him.
[The Dead], buried for a year but still living as usual.
He gradually realized that these roles weren't descriptions of people's lives.
Quite the opposite:
This world was creating coincidences, altering memories, and falsifying records, forcing everyone toward the ending dictated by their role.
Everyone had a role of their own.
Everyone except Shen Zhiheng.
But when he tried to change other people's stories, the observers hiding behind reality gave him a new name:
[The Actor Who Shouldn't Exist]
The setting of this book is very attractive (at least the train part attracted me) I have read Chapter 49 so far. I can't tell the difference between handwriting and AI, but my evaluation is that brass is not gold but resembles gold, because some places feel too monotonous? And I still have some questions Is the protagonist's "blank" or nothing? Is the protagonist able to change more easily because of his abilities, or is he able to affect things more because he is blank? What exactly is a train? Why are internal time and external observation time different? What is the relationship between the ticket collector and the mysterious organization? What is the purpose of the existence of the train? Because after the story of the train is over, it seems to be useless except for the "sole survivor".
The setting is very good and novel, I have never seen it before. And what kind of AI did the author use? I couldn't clearly feel the AI flavor until Chapter 7. Although it was there before, if it hadn't been mentioned in the comments, I would have ignored it. It was just not obvious and did not affect my overall reading experience.
To be honest, this book is quite beautiful. The setting is very novel and interesting. The plots inside are also very attractive. But the only thing is that the dialogue between the characters is a bit artificial and does not feel like a living person. The characters are not very three-dimensional. If it is written by AI, I think the quality is very high. If it is written by a real person, I still hope that the author's writing style can be more delicate.
I don't know if it's AI, but the settings are pretty good. The writing style gave me a sense of immersion that was hard to read, and it was a bit head-scratching. The text felt as cold as a machine narrative.
The setting is a bit interesting just from the introduction. Let's take a look first. But the word count is too few and I have no desire to read it. A kind person reminded me after the word count became too much.
AI. Style of writing
I don't care if it's AI or not, as long as it's well-written and to my liking, and the setting is novel. For those who are resistant to AI, it is best not to touch AI even once in your life.
The introduction sounds very attractive, but many people in the comment section say it was written by AI. Is it worth reading?
The content is very exciting! The author is great!
