In Qicheng, death isn't the end. Running out of funds is.
The "Return from Death System" has turned life into a subscription service. As long as you can afford the expensive stability fund, you can reload and start over as many times as you like.
Shen Yuming is a cold-blooded auditor who specializes in clearing out the spirits of those who've stopped paying.
His job has only three rules:
1. When the balance hits zero, terminate immediately.
2. Memories are merchandise, not keepsakes.
3. Never keep any data belonging to the dead.
Then he meets Ji Chen, an illegal resurrection who should have been erased completely.
The man, wanted by the entire city, has not only swaggered back, but also brought along a string of rogue codes from a corrupted System and a blank stretch of memory that was forcibly deleted.
Ji Chen corners Shen Yuming and grins. "Officer Shen, I hear we used to be close. Close enough that... I'd willingly delete myself for you?"
Shen Yuming's finger trembles slightly on the trigger.
Because Ji Chen's lost memory is the secret he would protect to the death, even if it meant defying the laws of heaven.
When an auditor falls in love with a Bug destined for deletion.
"If the rules decide you're guilty, I'll rewrite every last one of these damn rules."
