When Jiang Ye was twelve, he met an older boy in the park.

The boy was gentle and kind to him, and Jiang Ye became utterly captivated.

But then he lost him...

Jiang Ye searched and waited, consumed by his obsession.

Perhaps it was fate: ten years later, he found the older boy lying in a pool of blood after a car accident.

With bloodshot eyes and tears streaming down his face, Jiang Ye asked in anguish, "Brother, why did you leave me?"

The older boy became a motionless vegetable.

To save him, Jiang Ye implanted a chip in his brain.

People found a diary in a room:

I gave my brother a new life.

The new him is still gentle, and remembers every secret we shared.

I am lost in this perfect happiness, recovered after losing it...

I know that even as an AI robot, my brother still loves me.

Because I once asked him, "Brother, do you love me?"
