This book is also known as Guilty No More and My Heartbreaking Efforts to Prove My Innocence in an Infinite World, among other titles. The author is terrible at naming things.
As social tensions intensify and serious incidents become more frequent, a program called The Virtue Correction Center is launched. Whenever a crime is discovered, a vote is held on whether the offender should be sent to the "Virtue Correction Center" for rehabilitation. After the program airs, the crime rate drops significantly.
Rumor has it that everyone approved for admission to the Virtue Correction Center gets a thorny crown tattoo on their right hand. The thorny crown becomes a "cool" code name among edgy teens, as well as a mark of evil in the eyes of the public.
Then, three days ago, Song She discovers that a mark has mysteriously been stamped on him.
Song She: Does anyone care that a law-abiding citizen like me is innocent?
Since nobody cares, he has no choice but to prove it himself.

"Ding-dong! Welcome to the world [Ryborn Hospital]!"
A wave of dizziness washes over him. A blurry figure pushes a cart up to him.
"057, take your medication now."
The nurse's neck stretches out, and her nails grow long and hard until they pierce her gloves.
"Creak... creak..." The iron bed lets out a mournful groan, while the culprit remains oblivious.
"Get him!"
"There's no escape. Then let's die together."
On the hospital bed, someone's chest is cut open. Blood sprays everywhere, pooling on the floor beneath the bed.
The person looks exactly like him.
"Ryborn Hospital, do you really think this is a hospital?"
"Hello, Song She. My... duplicate."
P.S. This book is dedicated to the eighteen-year-old version of me who wanted to write an infinite-world novel.
Theme: A gentleman born in a small country is not to blame for it.
